THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of March 31, 2011 is entered into between XXXXX CORNING SALES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Originator”), and XXXXX CORNING RECEIVABLES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2011 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, as Seller, the Originator, as initial Servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the various Purchasers and Purchaser Agents, from time to time party thereto and The Bank of Nova Scotia, as Administrator.

BACKGROUND:

1. The Company is a special purpose limited liability company, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of which are owned directly or indirectly by the Originator.

2. The Originator generates and/or acquires Receivables in the ordinary course of its business.

3. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Originator, and on the date hereof, the Originator desires to contribute to the capital of the Company certain Receivables and related assets.

4. The Originator wishes to sell and/or contribute Receivables and related assets to the Company, and the Company is willing to purchase and/or accept such Receivables and related assets from the Originator, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

5. The Originator and the Company intend the transactions hereunder to be “true sales” of Receivables and the Related Rights by the Originator to the Company, providing the Company with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and the Originator and the Company do not intend the transactions hereunder to be characterized as a loan from the Company to the Originator.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENT TO CONTRIBUTE, PURCHASE AND SELL

SECTION 1.1 Agreement To Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Originator agrees to sell to the Company, and the Company agrees to purchase from the Originator, from time to time on or after the Closing Date,

but before the Purchase and Sale Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.4), all of the Originator’s right, title and interest in and to:

(a) each Receivable that existed and was owing at the closing of the Originator’s business on the Closing Date (other than the Receivables being contributed to the Company by the Originator pursuant to Section 3.1 (the “Contributed Receivables”));

(b) each Receivable arising after the Closing Date to but excluding the Purchase and Sale Termination Date;

(c) all rights, but not the obligations of the Originator to and under all Related Security with respect to any of the foregoing Receivables;

(d) all amounts due or to become due to the Originator with respect to any of the foregoing;

(e) all books and records of the Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing;

(f) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) of the Originator, if any, in and to each post office box and account to which Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables are sent, all amounts on deposit therein, and any related investment property acquired with any such collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC); and

(g) all collections and other proceeds and products of any of the foregoing (as defined in the UCC) that are or were received by the Originator on or after the Cut-off Date, including, without limitation, all funds which either are received by the Originator, the Company or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Obligors in payment of any amounts owed (including, without limitation, invoice price, finance charges, interest and all other charges) in respect of Receivables or are applied to such amounts owed by the Obligors (including, without limitation, any insurance payments that the Originator, the Company or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Receivables, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of repossessed goods or other collateral or property of the Obligors in respect of Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Receivables) (clauses (a) through (g), collectively, the “Transferred Assets”).

All purchases and contributions hereunder are absolute and irrevocable and shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Originator set forth in this Agreement and each other Transaction Document. No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Company hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The Company’s foregoing commitment to purchase Receivables and the proceeds and rights described in clauses (c) through (g) (collectively, the “Related Rights”) is herein called the “Purchase Facility.”

SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases.

(a) Closing Date Purchases. The Originator’s entire right, title and interest in each Receivable that existed as of the Closing Date (other than Contributed Receivables) and all Related Rights with respect thereto automatically shall be, and shall be deemed to have been, sold by the Originator to the Company on the Closing Date.

(b) Subsequent Purchases. After the Closing Date, until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, all of the Originator’s right, title and interest in each Receivable and the Related Rights shall be, and shall be deemed to have been, sold by the Originator to the Company immediately (and without further action) upon the creation of such Receivable.

SECTION 1.3 Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to make Purchase Price payments to the Originator in accordance with Article III.

SECTION 1.4 Purchase and Sale Termination Date. The “Purchase and Sale Termination Date” shall be the earliest to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated pursuant to Section 8.2 and (b) the Payment Date (as defined in Section 2.2) immediately following the day on which the Originator shall have given written notice to the Company and the Administrator at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) that the Originator desires to terminate this Agreement.

SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of the Originator and the Company that each conveyance by the Originator to the Company pursuant to this Agreement of the Receivables and Related Rights, be construed as a valid and perfected sale or contribution (as applicable) and absolute assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Receivables and Related Rights by the Originator to the Company (rather than the grant of a security interest to secure a debt or other obligation of the Originator) and that the right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Company be prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including, without limitation, lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through the Originator. However, if, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties, any conveyance of Receivables and Related Rights, including without limitation any Receivables constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, is not construed to be both a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment of such Receivables and Related Rights, and a conveyance of such Receivables and Related Rights that is prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including without limitation lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through the Originator, then, it is the intent of the Originator and the Company that (i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC; and (ii) the Originator shall be deemed to have granted to the Company as of the date of this Agreement, and the Originator hereby grants to the Company a security interest in, to and under all of the Originator’s right, title and interest in and to: (A) the Receivables and the Related Rights now existing and hereafter created by the Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder, (B) all amounts due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto, (C) all books and records of the Originator related to any of the foregoing, (D) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) of the Originator in

and to each post office box and account (including, without limitation, all related Lock-Box Accounts) to which Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables are sent, all amounts on deposit therein, and any related investment property acquired with any such collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC) and (E) all proceeds and products of any of the foregoing to secure all of the Originator’s obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE II

PURCHASE REPORT; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 2.1 Purchase Report. On the Closing Date and on each day an Information Package is required to be delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (each such date, a “Monthly Purchase Report Date”), the Originator shall (or shall cause the Servicer to) deliver to the Company and the Administrator a report in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each such report being herein called a “Purchase Report”) setting forth, among other things:

(a) Receivables purchased by the Company from the Originator and/or contributed to the Company by the Originator on the Closing Date (in the case of the Purchase Report to be delivered on the Closing Date);

(b) Receivables purchased by the Company from the Originator during the calendar month immediately preceding such Monthly Purchase Report Date (in the case of each subsequent Purchase Report); and

(c) any reductions or adjustments to the Receivables and the calculations of reductions of the Purchase Price for any Receivables as provided in Section 3.3 (a) and (b).

SECTION 2.2 Calculation of Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” to be paid to the Originator for the Receivables that are purchased hereunder from the Originator shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:


PP	=	OB x FMVD

where:

PP	=	Purchase Price for each Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date.

OB	=	The Outstanding Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date.

FMVD	=	Fair Market Value Discount, as measured on such Payment Date, which is equal to the quotient (expressed as percentage) of: (a) one divided by (b) the sum of (i) one,


				plus (ii) the product of (A) the Prime Rate on such Payment Date, and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Days’ Sales Outstanding (calculated as of the last Business Day of the calendar month next preceding such Payment Date) and the denominator of which is 365, plus (iii) the percentage agreed to from time to time between the Originator and the Company as the “Historical Loss Percentage”.

“Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originator is open for business.

“Prime Rate” means a per annum rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal or if such information ceases to be published in The Wall Street Journal, such other publication as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, as notified from time to time to the Originator.

ARTICLE III

CONTRIBUTION OF RECEIVABLES; PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 3.1 Contribution of Receivables. Effective as of the Closing Date, Originator hereby contributes to the capital of the Company, and the Company hereby accepts as a capital contribution from the Originator, Receivables and Related Rights consisting of each Receivable of Originator that existed and was owing to Originator on the Closing Date, such that the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all such contributed Receivables shall be equal to $100,000,000.

SECTION 3.2 Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date on and after the Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables sold by the Originator hereunder on such Payment Date:

(i) First, in cash to the extent the Company has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and/or, if requested by the Originator, in consideration for causing the LC Bank to issue one or more Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 3.5 and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Article III and the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

(ii) Second, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the principal amount outstanding under the Company Note shall be automatically increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price and (y) the maximum increase in the principal balance of the Company Note that could be made without rendering the Company’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount; and

(iii) Third, at Originator’s election, by accepting such Receivables as a contribution to the Company’s capital in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price.

“Net Worth” means, at any time, an amount equal to (i) the Outstanding Balance at such time of all Eligible Receivables then owned by the Company, minus (ii) the sum of (A) Aggregate Capital at such time, plus (B) the aggregate accrued and unpaid Discount and Fees at such time, plus (C) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Company Note at such time, plus (D) the accrued and unpaid interest on the Company Note at such time.

“Required Capital Amount” means, as of any date, an amount equal to (a) the Net Receivables Pool Balance as of the most recent date of determination multiplied by (b) (i) the Loss Reserve Percentage on such date divided by (ii) 100% minus the Loss Reserve Percentage on such date.

The Servicer shall make all appropriate record keeping entries with respect to the Company Note to reflect the foregoing payments and reductions made pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.4, and the Servicer’s books and records shall constitute rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, the Company Note at any time. The Originator hereby irrevocably authorizes the Servicer to xxxx the Company Note “CANCELED” and to return such Company Note to the Company upon the final payment thereof after the occurrence of the Purchase and Sale Termination Date.

In the event the Originator requests that any purchases be paid for by issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Originator shall on a timely basis provide the Company with such information as is necessary for the Company to obtain such Letter of Credit from the LC Bank. None of the Originator nor any Affiliate thereof (other than the Company) shall have any reimbursement or recourse obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.

(a) If, (i) on the day of purchase or contribution of any Receivable from the Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.10, 5.14 and 5.16 are not true with respect to such Receivable or (ii) as a result of any action or inaction (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor) of the Originator, on any subsequent day, any of such representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.10, 5.14 and 5.16 is no longer true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price (or in the case of any Contributed Receivable, the Outstanding Balance thereof (the “Contributed Value”)), with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and shall be accounted to the Originator as provided in clause (c) below; provided, that if the Company thereafter receives payment on account of Collections due with respect to such Receivable, the Company promptly shall deliver such funds to the Originator.

(b) If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable purchased or contributed hereunder is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned goods

or services, or any discount or other adjustment made by the Originator, the Company or the Servicer or any setoff or dispute between the Originator or the Servicer and an Obligor as indicated on the books of the Company (or, for periods prior to the Closing Date, the books of the Originator), then the Purchase Price or Contributed Value, as the case may be, with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by the amount of such net reduction and shall be accounted to the Originator as provided in clause (c) below.

(c) Any reduction in the Purchase Price or Contributed Value of any Receivable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall be applied as a credit for the account of the Company against the Purchase Price of Receivables subsequently purchased by the Company from the Originator hereunder; provided, however if there have been no purchases of Receivables from the Originator (or insufficiently large purchases of Receivables) to create a Purchase Price sufficient to so apply such credit against, the amount of such credit:

(i) to the extent of any outstanding principal balance under the Company Note payable to the Originator, shall be deemed to be a payment under, and shall be deducted from the principal amount outstanding under, the Company Note payable to the Originator; and

(ii) after making any deduction pursuant to clause (i) above, shall be either (A) paid in cash to the Company by the Originator in the manner and for application as described in the following proviso or (B) in reduction of the Purchase Price payable on the immediately following Purchase Date;

provided, further, that at any time (y) on or after the Facility Termination Date or (z) on or after the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, the amount of any such credit shall be paid by the Originator to the Company by deposit in immediately available funds into a Lock-Box Account for application by the Servicer to the same extent as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in such amount had actually been received on such date.

(d) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable purchased after the date hereof shall be due and payable by Company to Originator on the Payment Date therefor, a precise reconciliation of the Purchase Prices between Company and Originator shall be effected on a monthly basis on Settlement Dates with respect to all Receivables sold during the calendar month most recently ended prior to such Settlement Date and based on the information contained in the Purchase Report delivered pursuant to Section 2.1 above. Although such reconciliation shall be effected on Settlement Dates, increases or decreases in the principal balance of the Company note and any contribution of capital by Originator to Company made pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the date that the Purchase Price is due and payable. On each Settlement Date, Originator shall determine the net increase or the net reduction in the outstanding principal amount of the Company Note and the amount of any capital contributions occurring during the immediately preceding calendar month and shall account for such net increase or net reduction in its books and records.

SECTION 3.4 Reconveyance of Receivables. In the event that the Originator has paid to the Company the full Outstanding Balance of any Receivable pursuant to Section 3.3, the Company shall automatically reconvey such Receivable to the Originator, without representation

or warranty, but free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges, and encumbrances created by the Company, and such Receivable, once so reconveyed to the Originator, shall be deemed not to be a Receivable for purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

SECTION 3.5 Letters of Credit. (a) Upon the request of the Originator, and on the terms and conditions for issuing Letters of Credit under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (including any limitations therein on the amount of any such issuance), the Company agrees to cause the LC Bank to issue, on the Purchase Dates specified by the Originator, Letters of Credit in favor of the beneficiaries specified by the Originator. The aggregate stated amount of the Letters of Credit being issued on any Purchase Date on behalf of the Originator shall constitute a credit against the aggregate Purchase Price payable by the Company to the Originator on such Purchase Date pursuant to Section 3.1. To the extent that the aggregate stated amount of the Letters of Credit being issued on any Payment Date exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price payable by the Company to the Originator on such Payment Date, such excess shall be deemed to be a (i) reduction in the outstanding principal balance of (and, to the extent necessary, the accrued but unpaid interest on) the Company Note payable to the Originator and/or (ii) a reduction in the Purchase Price payable on the Purchase Dates immediately following the date any such Letter of Credit is issued. In the event that any such Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 3.5 (i) expires or is cancelled or otherwise terminated with all or any portion of its stated amount undrawn, (ii) has its stated amount decreased (for a reason other than a drawing having been made thereunder) or (iii) the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect thereof is reduced for any reason other than by virtue of a payment made in respect of a drawing thereunder, then an amount equal to such undrawn amount or such reduction, as the case may be, shall either be paid in cash to the Originator on the next Payment Date or, if the Company does not then have cash available therefor, shall be deemed to be (x) first, added to the outstanding principal balance of the Company Note issued to the Originator to the extent that such addition would not cause the Company’s Net Worth to be less than the Required Capital Amount and (y) second¸ a contribution to the capital of the Company. Under no circumstances shall the Originator (or any Affiliate thereof (other than the Company)) have any reimbursement or recourse obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit.

(b) In the event that the Originator requests a Letter of Credit hereunder, the Originator shall on a timely basis provide the Company with such information as is necessary for the Company to obtain such Letter of Credit from the LC Bank, and shall notify the Company and the Administrator of the allocations described in the preceding sentence. Such allocations shall be binding on the Company and the Originator, absent manifest error.

(c) The Originator agrees to be bound by the terms of each Letter of Credit Application referenced in the Receivables Purchase Agreement and by the LC Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued for the Company and by the LC Bank’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(a) No payment or other distribution of the Company’s assets of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities, or other rights or property, shall be made on account of this Company Note except to the extent such payment or other distribution is (i) permitted under Section 1(n) of Exhibit IV to the Receivables Purchase Agreement or (ii) made pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of paragraph 6 of this Company Note;

(b) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than as permitted by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (such proceedings being herein collectively called “Bankruptcy Proceedings”), the Senior Interests shall first be paid and performed in full and in cash before Originator shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of this Company Note. In order to implement the foregoing: (i) all payments and distributions of any kind or character in respect of this Company Note to which Holder would be entitled except

Exhibit B-3

for this clause (b) shall be made directly to the Administrator (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders); (ii) Holder shall promptly file a claim or claims, in the form required in any Bankruptcy Proceedings, for the full outstanding amount of this Company Note, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause said claim or claims to be approved and all payments and other distributions in respect thereof to be made directly to the Administrator (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash; and (iii) Holder hereby irrevocably agrees that Administrator (acting on behalf of the Purchasers), in the name of Holder or otherwise, demand, xxx for, collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent in any such Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to any and all claims of Holder relating to this Company Note, in each case until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash;

(c) In the event that Holder receives any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from the Company or from any other source whatsoever, in respect of this Company Note, other than as expressly permitted by the terms of this Company Note, such payment or other distribution shall be received in trust for the Senior Interest Holders and shall be turned over by Holder to the Administrator (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) forthwith. Holder will xxxx its books and records so as clearly to indicate that this Company Note is subordinated in accordance with the terms hereof. All payments and distributions received by the Administrator in respect of this Company Note, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by the Administrator (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first to the payment of any and all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon this Company Note, and any balance thereof shall, solely as between Originator and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by the Administrator (in the order of application set forth in Section 1.4(d) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) toward the payment of the Senior Interests; but as between the Company and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Interests;

If no Bankruptcy Proceedings are pending, Holder shall only be entitled to exercise any subrogation rights that it may acquire (by reason of a payment or distribution to the Senior Interest Holders in respect of this Company Note) to the extent that any payment arising out of the exercise of such rights would be permitted under Section 1(n) of Exhibit IV to the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

(e) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of Holder, on the one hand, and the Senior Interest Holders on the other hand. Nothing contained in these Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Company Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors

Exhibit B-4

(other than the Senior Interest Holders) and Holder, the Company’s obligation, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay Holder the principal of and interest on this Company Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof or to affect the relative rights of Holder and creditors of the Company (other than the Senior Interest Holders);

(f) Holder shall not, until the Senior Interests have been paid and performed in full and in cash, (i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of the Company, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than the Senior Interests, this Company Note or any rights in respect hereof or (ii) convert this Company Note into an equity interest in the Company, unless Holder shall, in either case, have received the prior written consent of the Administrator;

(g) Holder shall not, without the advance written consent of the Administrator and each Purchaser, commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to the Company until at least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash;

(h) If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) of any Senior Interest is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior Interest Holder (whether in connection with Bankruptcy Proceedings or otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made;

(i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, without notice to Holder, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property to secure any of the Senior Interests; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iv) amend, supplement, amend and restate, or otherwise modify any Transaction Document; and (v) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property;

(j) Holder hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon, the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any security therefor;

Exhibit B-5

(k) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Documents to which such Persons are party, but without notice to Holder, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior Interests, or any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Senior Interests shall be and remain Senior Interests for the purposes of these Subordination Provisions, and every immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Interests or of any interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Interests shall be entitled to the benefits of these Subordination Provisions to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were the assignor or transferor; and

(l) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from the holder of this Company Note to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Interests; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and the Administrator may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.

10. General. No failure or delay on the part of Originator in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Company Note shall in any event be effective unless (i) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Company and Holder and (ii) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.

11. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Company Note to the contrary, the Company shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at a rate in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received under applicable federal or state law (such maximum rate being herein called the “Highest Lawful Rate”). If the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable under this Company Note would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of this Company Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Company under this Company Note to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Company under this Company Note shall be reduced to the amount allowed by applicable law, and (ii) any unearned interest paid by the Company or any interest paid by the Company in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be refunded to the Company. Without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by Originator under this Company Note that are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to Originator (such Highest Lawful Rate being herein called the “Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate”) shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to Originator (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the actual period during which any amount has been outstanding hereunder all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by Originator in connection herewith. If at any time

Exhibit B-6

and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to Originator on any date shall be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to Originator would be less than the amount of interest payable to Originator computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate, then the amount of interest payable to Originator in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to Originator shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to Originator if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to the provisions of the foregoing sentence.

12. Governing Law. THIS COMPANY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW)).

13. Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Company Note are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Company Note.
