(a) (i) The Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Class A-2 Notes), to which that Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference (A) in any Free Writing Offering Document, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (B) in any Blue Sky application or other document prepared or executed by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager or the Guarantors (or based upon any written information furnished by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager or the Guarantors) specifically for the purpose of qualifying any or all of the Class A-2 Notes under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction (any such application, document or information being hereinafter called a “Blue Sky Application”), (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Free Writing Offering Document, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Blue Sky Application, any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) without limitation of clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by the Initial Purchaser in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the Class A-2 Notes or the offering contemplated hereby, and that is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon matters covered by clause (i) or (ii) above (provided that the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors shall not be liable under this clause (iii) to the extent that it is determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted directly from any such acts or failures to act undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Initial Purchaser through its gross negligence or willful misconduct), and shall reimburse the Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer, employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or Offering Memorandum, or in any such amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Blue Sky Application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 8(e).

(i) The Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors,

managers, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of Class A-2 Notes), to which the Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any website maintained in compliance with Rule 17g-5 under the Exchange Act by or on behalf of the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Class A-2 Notes (provided that the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors shall not be liable to the extent that it is determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Initial Purchaser), and shall reimburse the Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer, employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

The foregoing indemnity agreements in clauses (i) and (ii) above are in addition to any liability that the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors may otherwise have to the Initial Purchaser or to any affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person of the Initial Purchaser.

(b) The Initial Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, Parent, the Manager, the Guarantors, their affiliates, their respective officers and employees, each of their respective directors or managers, and each person, if any, who controls any of the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which any of the Issuer, Parent, the Manager, the Guarantors, their affiliates or any such director, manager, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (A) in any Free Writing Offering Document, Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (B) in any Blue Sky Application, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Free Writing Offering Document, Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Blue Sky Application any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 8(e). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Initial Purchaser may otherwise have to any of the Issuer, Parent, the Manager, the Guarantors or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying

party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and; provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (which may be counsel to the indemnifying party). After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are inconsistent with those available to the indemnifying parties, or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would present a conflict due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event described in clauses (i) – (iv), the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors in accordance with Section 8(a) above. No indemnifying party shall (x) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, or (y) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other, from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer, Xxxxxx, the Manager and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial

Purchaser, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser with respect to the Class A-2 Notes purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes under this Agreement as set forth on the cover page of the Offering Memorandum. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors, or the Initial Purchaser, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, the net proceeds deemed to be received by the Issuer shall be deemed to be also for the benefit of Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors, and information supplied by the Issuer shall also be deemed to have been supplied by Xxxxxx, the Manager and the Guarantors. The Issuer, Parent, the Manager, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), any documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), the Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by it exceeds the amount of any damages that the Initial Purchaser has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties, notify each party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this Section 8(d) or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer, Parent, the Manager, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchaser agree that the obligations of the Initial Purchaser under this clause (d) shall be several and not joint.

(e) The Initial Purchaser confirms and the Issuer, Parent, the Manager and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that (i) the statements with respect to the offering of the Class A-2 Notes by the Initial Purchaser set forth in the paragraph relating to overallotment, stabilization and similar activities in the sections entitled “Plan of Distribution” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and “Plan of Distribution” in the Offering Memorandum and (ii) the name of the Initial Purchaser set forth on the front cover page of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum constitutes the only information concerning the Initial Purchaser furnished in writing to the Issuer, Parent, the Manager or the Guarantors by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Blue Sky Application (the “Initial Purchaser Information”).

9. Defaulting Initial Purchaser.

(a) If, on the Closing Date, the Initial Purchaser defaults in its obligations to purchase the Notes that it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate. Any termination

of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability on the part of Parent, the Issuer, the Guarantors or the Manager, except that the provisions of Section 8 shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(b) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to Parent, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Manager for damages caused by its default.

10. Termination. The obligations of the Initial Purchaser hereunder may be terminated by the Initial Purchaser by notice given to and received by the Issuer prior to delivery of and payment for the Class A-2 Notes if, prior to that time, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchaser, any of the events described in Sections 7(t), (v) or (dd) shall have occurred and be continuing or if the Initial Purchaser shall decline to purchase the Class A-2 Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

11. Non-Assignability. None of the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent or the Manager may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement. The Initial Purchaser may not assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that the Initial Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its affiliates as the purchaser of the Class A-2 Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder (“Substituting Initial Purchaser”), by a written notice to the Issuer, which notice shall be signed by both the Substituting Initial Purchaser and such affiliate, shall contain such affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 3 hereof. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Initial Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11), such word shall be deemed to refer to such affiliate in lieu of the Substituting Initial Purchaser. In the event that such affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such affiliate thereafter transfers back to the Substituting Initial Purchaser all of the Class A-2 Notes then held by such affiliate, upon receipt by the Issuer of notice of such transfer, wherever the word “Initial Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than this Section 11), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such affiliate, but shall refer to the Substituting Initial Purchaser, and the Substituting Initial Purchaser shall have all the rights of an original holder of the Class A-2 Notes under this Agreement.

12. Reimbursement of Initial Purchaser’s Expenses. If (a) the Issuer for any reason fails to tender the Class A-2 Notes for delivery to the Initial Purchaser, or (b) the Initial Purchaser shall decline to purchase the Class A-2 Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent and the Manager shall reimburse the Initial Purchaser for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and expenses of one primary counsel for the Initial Purchaser and one local counsel to the Initial Purchaser) incurred by the Initial Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Class A-2 Notes, and upon demand the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent and the Manager shall pay the full amount thereof to the Initial Purchaser. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 by reason of the default of the Initial Purchaser, Parent, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Manager shall not be obligated to reimburse the defaulting Initial Purchaser on account of those expenses.

13. Notices, etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Initial Purchaser, the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent, the Manager and their respective successors. This Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof are for the sole benefit of only those Persons, provided that the representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent and the Manager contained in this Agreement shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of directors, officers and employees of the Initial Purchaser and each Person or Persons, if any, controlling the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and provided further that the representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of the Initial Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of directors, officers and employees of any the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent and the Manager and each Person or Persons, if any, controlling any of the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent and the Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act.

The respective indemnities (including, without limitation, those in Section 8), rights of contribution, representations and warranties of the Issuer, the Guarantors, Parent or the Manager and the Initial Purchaser contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Class A-2 Notes and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any of them or any person controlling any of them. The provisions of Sections 5(h), 5(j), 5(o), 5(q), 5(u), 11 and 12 hereof shall also survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
