Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Each Initial Purchaser’s obligation to contribute hereunder shall be several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

The representations and warranties, covenants (other than such covenants to be performed on the Closing Date, which shall not survive the Closing Date), indemnities and contribution and expense reimbursement provisions and other agreements of the Company and the Guarantors set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the acceptance of the Securities, and payment for them hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.
11.Defaulting Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date, any one of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or of the Company or any Guarantor. Any action taken under this Section shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.
12.No Fiduciary Relationship. The Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge that each Initial Purchaser is acting solely as initial purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities. The Company and the Guarantors further acknowledge that each Initial Purchaser is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s length basis, and in no event do the parties intend that the Initial Purchasers act or be responsible as a fiduciary to either the Company, the Guarantors or their respective management, stockholders or creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Initial Purchasers may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the purchase and sale of the Securities, either before or after the date hereof. The Initial Purchasers hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to either the Company or the Guarantors, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Company and the Guarantors hereby confirm their understanding and agreement to that effect. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions and that any opinions or views expressed by the Initial Purchasers to the Company and the Guarantors regarding such transactions, including, but not limited to, any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that
28
either of the Company or the Guarantors may have against the Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Guarantors in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.
13.Information Supplied by Representatives. Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledges that, for purposes of Section 4(b) and Section 8, the only information that the Representatives have furnished to the Company specifically for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Final Offering Memorandum are the statements set forth in (a) the first sentence of the fourth paragraph, (b) the first and second sentences of the fifth paragraph, (c) the fifth sentence of the seventh paragraph, (d) the ninth paragraph, and (e) the first sentence of the eleventh paragraph, and (f) the thirteenth paragraph, under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum.

Pursuant to Section 7((g)(iv)) of the Purchase Agreement, I, Xxxxxx X.

|
1. |
I or members of my staff who are responsible for the Company’s financial and accounting matters have carried out procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the accuracy of the circled information contained in Exhibit A hereto from the [Preliminary][Final] Offering Memorandum dated [•], 2018 for the Company’s Senior Notes due 2025 (the “[Preliminary][Final] Offering Memorandum”). |
