Unless otherwise specified, references in this Agreement and in each other Loan Document to any Article or Section are references to such Article or Section of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, and, unless otherwise specified, references in any Article, Section or definition to any item or clause are references to such item or clause of such Article, Section or definition.
SECTION 1.4. Accounting and Financial Determinations. Unless otherwise specified, all accounting terms used herein or in any other Loan Document shall be interpreted, and all accounting determinations and computations hereunder or thereunder (including under Section 8.2.4) shall be made, in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied in the United States in the preparation of the financial statements to be provided by Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries from time to time in accordance with Section 8.1.1. If any change in accounting principles from those used in the preparation of the audited financial statement referred to in Section 7.6 hereafter occasioned by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement, interpretation or opinion by or required by GAAP would result in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms found in clause (b) of Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.2.4, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that the criteria for determining compliance with such Sections shall be the same after such change as if such change had not been made; provided, however, the parties hereto agree to construe all terms of an accounting or financial nature in accordance with GAAP as in effect prior to any such change in accounting principles until the parties hereto have amended the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.4. Register.
(a) The Administrative Agent agrees to record in the Register each Borrowing and each Lender’s Loan referenced in Section 2.3 and each payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.2.4. The Administrative Agent shall make appropriate entries in the Register which shall evidence, inter alia, the date of each Borrowing, the outstanding principal of, and the interest rate applicable to the Loans and the date and amount of all payments made with respect to the Loans (each Lender shall make corresponding entries in its books and records). Such entries by the Administrative Agent in the Register shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to make any such entries shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of the Borrowers or any other Obligor.
(b) Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as each Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this clause, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record each Lender’s Commitment, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, annexed to which the Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Obligor’s Obligations. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Syndication Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan is registered as the owner thereof for the purposes of all Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. Any assignment or transfer of a Commitment or the Loans made pursuant hereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a duly executed Lender Assignment Agreement. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or Loans shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section.
SECTION 2.5. [RESERVED]
SECTION 2.6. Superpriority Nature of Obligations and Loans.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in the DIP Order, the Obligations shall constitute superpriority administrative expense claims in each of the Cases, as more fully provided in the DIP Order. Except as expressly set forth herein or in the DIP Order, no other
-33-
claim having a priority superior or pari passu to that granted to the Obligations shall be granted or approved.
SECTION 2.7. No Discharge; Survival of Claims.
(a) The Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged (and each Loan Party, pursuant to Section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code hereby waives any such discharge) by the entry of an order (i) confirming any plan of reorganization in any of the Cases unless paid in full in cash; (ii) converting any of the Cases to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) dismissing any of the Cases and (b) until the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations, the superpriority administrative claim granted to the Obligations and all Liens granted to the Administrative Agent shall continue in full force and effect and maintain their priority as set forth in the DIP Order.
SECTION 2.8. Waiver of any Priming Rights. Other than the Carve-Out and the Post-Default Carve-Out or as expressly provided for in the DIP Order, each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right, pursuant to Sections 364(c) or 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, to grant any Lien of equal or superior priority than the Liens securing the Obligations, or to approve or grant a claim of equal or superior priority to the Obligations.

(i) all such voluntary prepayments shall require at least one (1) but no more than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent; and
(ii) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $3,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000.

Each Mandatory Prepayment set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid to the
-34-
Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement. The portion of the Mandatory Prepayments allocable to the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans will be applied pro rata among the outstanding principal balances thereof based on the aggregate principal amount of the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans or then outstanding. If, after giving effect to such Mandatory Prepayments, the outstanding principal balance of the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans has been reduced to zero, the unapplied portion thereof shall be applied to the outstanding Prepetition Loans in accordance with the terms of the Prepetition Credit Agreement.
SECTION 3.1.2 Application. Amounts paid or prepaid pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (other than amounts paid to the Prepetition Agent which shall be applied in accordance with the Prepetition Credit Agreement) shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, and applied as set forth in this Section.
(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and except as otherwise set forth in clause (b) of Section 3.1.1, the Administrative Agent shall apply all amounts received in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement first, to all Obligations (other than principal and interest on the Loans), second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans, applied on a pro rata basis, third, to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans, applied on a pro rata basis, and fourth, to the Prepetition Obligations in accordance with the Prepetition Credit Agreement.
(b) After an Event of Default has occurred and so long as such Event of Default is continuing, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be applied first, to the costs and expenses of protecting and preserving the security interests of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, second, to the costs and expenses of protecting and preserving the DIP Collateral, third, to the costs and expenses of enforcing the rights of the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Operative Documents, fourth, to all other Obligations due under this Agreement and the other Operative Documents (other than principal and interest on the Loans), fifth, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans, applied on a pro rata basis, sixth, to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term A Loans and the Delayed Draw Loans, applied on a pro rata basis, and seventh, after all amounts evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents have been indefeasibly paid in full, in cash, and Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries have performed their obligations under the Loan Documents, the balance, if any, shall be applied against the Prepetition Obligations in accordance with the Prepetition Credit Agreement.
SECTION 3.2. Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of Loans shall accrue and be payable in accordance with this Section 3.2.
SECTION 3.2.1 Interest Rate. The Loans shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to 11.0%.

-35-
but only to the extent permitted by law, interest (after as well as before judgment) on such amounts at a rate per annum equal to, (a) in the case of Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable to such Loans pursuant to Section 3.2.1, plus 2.00%, and (b) in the case of other monetary obligations, the rate that would otherwise be applicable to Loans pursuant to Section 3.2.1, plus 2.00%.
SECTION 3.2.3 Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, in arrears, without duplication:
(a) on the Stated Maturity Date therefor;
(b) on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on such Loan on the principal amount so paid or prepaid;
(c) on each Quarterly Payment Date occurring after the Effective Date;
(d) on that portion of any Loan the Stated Maturity Date of which is accelerated pursuant to Section 9.2, immediately upon such acceleration; and
(e) on each Quarterly Payment Date pursuant to Section 3.2.4 in the amount thereof.
Interest accrued on Loans or other monetary Obligations arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document after the date such amount is due and payable (whether on the Stated Maturity Date, upon acceleration or otherwise) shall be payable upon demand.
SECTION 3.2.4 Interest Paid In Kind. In addition to the interest accruing pursuant to Section 3.2.1, additional interest shall accrue and be payable in kind on each of the Loans in an amount equal to three and a half percent (3.5%) per annum of the then outstanding principal amount of the Term A Loans or the Delayed Draw Loans, as applicable. On each Quarterly Payment Date, such principal amount of the Term A Loans or the Delayed Draw Loans, as applicable, shall increase by such accrued amount of additional interest.

Such fees shall be fully earned and payable on the Effective Date and shall be non refundable.
SECTION 3.3.2 Commitment Fee. From and after the Effective Date, the Borrowers shall pay, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, a non-refundable fee (the “Commitment Fee”) on the daily average undrawn amount of the Delayed Draw Commitment Amount at a rate equal to one percent (1.00%) per annum. The Commitment
-36-
Fee shall be payable on each Quarterly Payment Date in arrears to the Lenders which have made a commitment to make a Delayed Draw Loan in proportion to their respective unfunded Delayed Draw Commitment and upon any termination of any Delayed Draw Commitment, in each case, for the number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.
ARTICLE IV
TAX AND OTHER PROVISIONS
SECTION 4.1. Increased Capital Costs. If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank, regulator or other Governmental Instrumentality affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and such Lender determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Loans made by such Lender is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such case upon written notice from time to time by such Lender to Greektown Holdings, Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries shall immediately pay directly to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Lender as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers; provided, however, if requested by the Borrowers, such Lender shall provide reasonably appropriate documentation confirming the amount of such compensation. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (determines in good faith in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.
SECTION 4.2. Lender’s Tax. All payments by the Borrowers of principal of, and interest on, the Credit Extensions and all other amounts payable hereunder (including fees) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding franchise taxes and other taxes based on a Lender’s net income or gross receipts imposed on such Lender by a Governmental Instrumentality located in (i) the jurisdiction where such Lender is organized or (ii) any jurisdiction in which such Lender maintains a lending office which is applicable to the Transactions contemplated hereunder (each such non-excluded item being called a “Lender’s Tax”). In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrowers hereunder is required in respect of any Lender’s Tax pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries shall,
(a) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;
-37-
(b) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such authority; and
(c) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each Lender will equal the full amount such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.
Moreover, if any Lender’s Tax is directly asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any payment received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may pay such Lender’s Tax and the Borrowers will promptly pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Lender’s Tax (including any Lender’s Tax on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Person would have received had not such Lender’s Tax been asserted.
If Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries fail to pay any Lender’s Tax when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Greektown Holdings and its Subsidiaries shall indemnify the Lenders for any incremental Lender’s Tax, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 4.2, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrowers.
Each Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States or a State thereof (for purposes of this Section 4.2, a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, prior to the date on which any Loan is made hereunder (or in the case of a Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.7 or any Assignee Lender, before it becomes a party hereto) (a) execute and deliver to Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent one or more (as Greektown Holdings or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request) United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or such other forms or documents (or successor forms or documents), appropriately completed, certifying in each case that such Lender or Assignee Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9 or successor applicable form (if required by law), as the case may be, to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding tax or (b) if such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” or other person described in Section 881 (c) (3) of the Code and cannot deliver either Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI pursuant to clause (a) above, execute and deliver to Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent one or more (as Greektown Holdings or Administrative Agent may reasonably request) copies of the Tax Certificate, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or any successor form) and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code or Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, appropriately completed, certifying that such Lender or Assignee Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax and establishing an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. All Lenders other than Non-U.S. Lenders shall, prior to the date on which any Loan is made
-38-
hereunder (or in the case of a Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.7 or is an Assignee Lender, before such Lender becomes a party hereto), execute and deliver to Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent one or more copies (as Greektown Holdings or Administrative Agent may reasonably request) of United States Internal Revenue Form W-9 or successor applicable form (if required by law), as the case may be, to establish exemption from United States backup withholding tax.
Each Lender which undertakes to deliver to Greektown Holdings a Tax Certificate, a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9 pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall further undertake to deliver to Greektown Holdings two further copies of said Tax Certificate, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9 (if required by law), or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of an event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered by it to Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent, and such extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by Greektown Holdings or Administrative Agent, certifying in the case of a Tax Certificate, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless in any case an event (including any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax, and in the case of a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9, establishing an exemption from backup withholding.
SECTION 4.3. Payments, Computations, etc. Unless otherwise expressly provided, all payments by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders entitled to receive such payment. All such payments required to be made to the Administrative Agent shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, not later than 11.00 a.m., New York City time, on the date due, in same day or immediately available funds, to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to Greektown Holdings. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Lender its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. All interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days. Whenever any payment to be made shall otherwise be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.
SECTION 4.4. Sharing of Payments. If any Lender (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Loan (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 4.1 or 4.2) in excess of its pro rata share of payments then or therewith obtained by all other Lenders, such Lender, shall purchase from the other Lenders, such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the
-39-
excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender which has sold a participation to the purchasing Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of
(a) the amount of such selling Lender’s required repayment to the purchasing Lender
to
(b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender)
of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.5) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
SECTION 4.5. Setoff. Each Lender shall, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) each Borrower hereby grants upon the execution of this Agreement to each Lender a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of such Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Lender; provided, however, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of applicable Legal Requirements (including prohibitions against any such appropriation and application with respect to payroll and trust accounts of the Borrowers maintained with such Lender) and Section 4.4. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Lender may have.
SECTION 4.6. Mitigation. Each Lender agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Sections 4.1 or 4.2 it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrowers to make payments under Sections 4.1 or 4.2.
-40-
SECTION 4.7. Replacement of Lenders. Each Lender hereby severally agrees as set forth in this Section. If

THE AGENTS
SECTION 10.1. Designation of the Agents. Each Lender hereby makes the following designations:
(a) Each Lender hereby designates Jefferies to act as the Administrative Agent under and for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and authorizes Jefferies, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, to act on behalf of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Jefferies accepts such appointment and agrees to act as the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and to perform the duties of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby designates Xxxxxxx Xxxxx to act as the Syndication Agent under and for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and authorizes Xxxxxxx Sachs, in its capacity as the Syndication Agent, to act on behalf of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx accepts such appointment and agrees to act as the Syndication Agent on behalf of the Lenders and to perform the duties of the Syndication Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. The use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender agrees that each Agent, at its option, may delegate its duties, rights and powers, and that each sub-agent shall implement all such duties, rights and powers on behalf of such Agent, that are required of such Agent, as the case may be, on behalf of the Lenders. Each Agent and such sub-agent may perform any and all of their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors. The exculpatory provisions of Section 10.3 shall apply to such sub-agent and each such Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent and advisor and to their respective activities. Each Agent may replace such sub-agent upon consent of the Required Lenders and the exculpatory provisions of Section 10.3 shall apply to such replacement sub-agent.
-88-
(b) Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received from time to time by the Administrative Agent (with respect to which the Administrative Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by counsel in order to avoid contravention of applicable law), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be reasonably incidental thereto.
(c) Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement) each Agent, pro rata according to such Lender’s Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, consultants’ fees and as to which such Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses (i) which are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent, or (ii) which arise from the failure of another Lender to make its portion of the Commitment Amount available or to advance such Lender’s Percentage of any Loans to be made to the Borrowers (in which case such other Lender shall have responsibility for indemnification therefor). Neither Agent shall be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Operative Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of this Agreement or any other Operative Document, unless such Agent is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of an Agent shall be or become, in the respective determination of such Agent, inadequate, such Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given.
SECTION 10.2. Funding Reliance, etc. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the Borrowers to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of the Borrowers) and at the Federal Funds Rate (in the case of a Lender, for the first two (2) Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid) and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing. Nothing in this Section shall affect or impair the rights or remedies of the Borrowers against such Lender so long as such amount and interest, if any, has been repaid by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent.
-89-
SECTION 10.3. Exculpation. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing no Agent or any of such Agent’s directors, officers, employees or agents (i) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as shall be required by Section 13.1), (iii) except as expressly set forth herein, shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for failure to disclose any information relating to Greektown Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of such Agent’s Affiliates, (iv) shall be liable for any action taken by the such Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as shall be required by Section 13.1), (v) shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Greektown Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or a Lender, (vi) shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for such Agent’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (vii) shall be responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (viii) shall be responsible for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, (ix) shall be responsible for the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security or (x) shall have any duty to make any inquiry respecting the performance by Greektown Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Any inquiry which may be made by any Agent shall not obligate such Agent to make any further inquiry or take any action. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which such Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person.
SECTION 10.4. Successors. Each Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders. If any Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may, after consultation with Greektown Holdings (but only if no Default then exists hereunder) and subject to any required approval of the MGCB and the terms and conditions of the Development Agreement, appoint another Lender as a successor to such Agent which shall thereupon become such Agent hereunder. If no successor for such Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and after consultation with Greektown Holdings (such consultation being required only if no Default then exists hereunder) and subject to any required approval of the MGCB and the terms and conditions of the Development Agreement, appoint a successor to act in the capacity of such retiring Agent which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial lending institution organized under the laws of the U.S. (or any State thereof) or a U.S. branch or agency of a commercial lending institution and having (x) a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 and (y) a credit rating of “A” or better by S&P or a comparable rating by Xxxxx’x; provided, however, that if, after expending all reasonable commercial efforts, such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial lending
-90-
institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth in item (y), such retiring Agent shall be permitted to appoint as its successor from all available commercial lending institutions willing to accept such appointment such institution having the highest credit rating of all such available and willing institutions. Upon the acceptance of any appointment by a successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of
(a) this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by such retiring Agent while it was Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent under this Agreement, as applicable; and
(b) Section 13.3 and Section 13.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.
SECTION 10.5. Loans by Each Agent. Each Agent shall have the same rights and powers with respect to the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not an Agent hereunder. Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with Greektown Holdings, it’s Subsidiaries, Kewadin, Monroe, the Authority, the Tribe or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof as if such Person was not an Agent hereunder.

Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Agents and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.7. Copies, etc. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by or on behalf of the Borrowers).

In case of failure by the Borrowers or other Obligor punctually to pay any Obligations guaranteed hereby, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Borrowers or such Obligor, it being agreed that this is a guaranty of payment as opposed to a guaranty of collection.
SECTION 12.2. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article XII shall be unconditional, irrevocable and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by:
(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrowers or other Obligor or of any other guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise;

(g) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrowers or other Obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrowers or other Obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents; or
(h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article XII.
SECTION 12.3. Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated, and the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by the Borrowers or other Obligor or any Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents is rescinded, or otherwise, each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.
SECTION 12.4. Subrogation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations shall have been paid in full subsequent to the termination of all the Commitments.

SECTION 12.5. Waivers. Each Subsidiary Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person against the Borrowers or other Obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.
SECTION 12.6. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article XII shall be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed without rendering such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XII void or voidable under applicable law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law.
-95-

SECTION 13.8. Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, etc. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement.

-101-
SECTION 13.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that:
(a) neither Borrower may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and all Lenders; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents (other than the requirement that the then outstanding Obligations hereunder be paid in full in cash on the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization), subject to any required approval of the MGCB, the Borrowers shall, and shall be permitted to, assign all of their Obligations and rights under the Loan Documents to a new holding company (“Newco”) if such is formed to directly or indirectly hold substantially all of the Capital Stock of Greektown Holdings (such assignment, together with the assumption by Newco of all of the Borrowers’ Obligations and rights under the Loan Documents, the “Emergence Assignment”); provided that the Emergence Assignment shall occur on the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization (but prior to the repayment in full in cash of the Obligations on such date). Upon the effectiveness of the Emergence Assignment, (i) the Borrowers shall become Subsidiary Guarantors for all purposes under the Loan Documents and (ii) the Borrowers shall be automatically released from all of their Obligations as Borrowers; and
(b) the rights of sale, assignment and transfer of the Lenders are subject to Section 13.11.
SECTION 13.11. Sale and Transfer of Loans; Participations in Loans. Each Lender may assign, or sell participations in, its Loans and Commitments to one or more other Persons in accordance with this Section 13.11.
SECTION 13.11.1 Assignments. Subject to any required approval of the MGCB and the terms and conditions of the Development Agreement and upon prior notice to each Agent and consultation with Greektown Holdings (but only if no Default then exists hereunder), any Lender with the consent of the Administrative Agent (provided, however, that no such notice to or consent by any Agent or consultation with Greektown Holdings shall be required with respect to any assignment or sale by or to Jefferies or Xxxxxxx Xxxxx or their respective Affiliates; and further provided, however, that such consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld by the Administrative Agent if the assignee is exempt from the supplier licensing requirements under applicable Michigan Gaming Laws) may assign or sell all or any fraction of such Lender’s total Loans and Commitments to an Eligible Assignee (each Person described in the foregoing clause as being the Person to whom such assignment and delegation is to be made, being hereinafter referred to as an “Assignee Lender”) in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 with respect to the Loans (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Loans and Commitments) or such lesser amount agreed to by Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent, provided, that such minimum aggregate amount shall not be applicable in the case of assignments by such Lender to another Lender, any Approved Fund or its Affiliate. The Borrowers and each other Obligor and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned and delegated to an Assignee Lender until
-102-
(a) notice of such assignment and delegation, together with (i) payment instructions, (ii) the Internal Revenue Service Forms or other statements contemplated or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.2 and (iii) addresses and related information with respect to such Assignee Lender (including, if required, information required by the MGCB), shall have been delivered to Greektown Holdings and the Administrative Agent by such Lender and such Assignee Lender;
(b) such Assignee Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Borrowers and each Agent, a Lender Assignment Agreement, accepted by the Administrative Agent;
(c) the processing fees described below shall have been paid; and
(d) the Lender Assignment Agreement has been registered in the Register in accordance with Section 2.4.
From and after the date that the Administrative Agent accepts such Lender Assignment Agreement and the Administrative Agent records the information therein in the Register, (x) the Assignee Lender thereunder shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated to such Assignee Lender in connection with such Lender Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (y) the assignor Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned and delegated by it in connection with such Lender Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Accrued interest on that part of each assigned Loan and Commitment, and accrued fees, shall be paid as provided in the Lender Assignment Agreement. Accrued interest and accrued fees shall be paid at the same time or times provided in this Agreement. Such assignor Lender or such Assignee Lender must also pay a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent upon delivery of any Lender Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that only one fee shall be payable for simultaneous multiple assignments made by a Lender to or from its Affiliates; and further, provided, however, that no such fee shall be due from the assignor Lender or the Assignee Lender with respect to any Lender Assignment Agreement to which Jefferies or Xxxxxxx Xxxxx is a party or if the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects to waive such fee. Any attempted assignment and delegation not made in accordance with this Section 13.11.1 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, any Lender may (without requesting the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent) pledge its Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, and any Lender that is an investment fund that invests in bank loans may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights (but may not delegate any of its duties or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including its Commitment(s), if any) to any trustee or any other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such investment fund as security for such obligations or securities.
SECTION 13.11.2 Participations. Subject to any required approval of the MGCB, and the terms and conditions of the Development Agreement and upon prior written
-103-
notice to Greektown Holdings and each Agent, any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons (other than an Obligor or an Affiliate of an Obligor) (each of such commercial banks and other Persons being herein called a “Participant”) participating interests in any of the Loans, Commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder; provided, however, that
(a) no participation contemplated in this Section shall relieve such Lender from its Commitments or its other obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document;
(b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its Commitments and such other obligations;
(c) the Borrowers and each other Obligor and each Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents;
(d) no Participant, unless such Participant is an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund or is itself a Lender, shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take any actions of the type described in clauses (a), (b), (f) or, to the extent requiring the consent of such Lender, clause (c) of Section 13.1;
(e) the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no participating interest been sold;
(f) each Participant shall provide promptly after request and in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after such request (or shorter period of time if required by the MGCB) all information required by the MGCB; and
(g) no sale of any participation interest shall be effective until such sale has been recorded in the Register in accordance with Section 2.4.
Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each Participant, for purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.4 or 4.5 shall be considered a Lender. Each Participant shall only be indemnified for increased costs pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2 if and to the extent that the Lender which sold such participating interest to such Participant concurrently is entitled to make, and does make, a claim on the Borrowers for such increased costs. Any Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant under this Section 13.11.2 shall indemnify and hold harmless the Borrowers and each Agent from and against any Taxes, penalties, interest or other costs or losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or payable by the Borrowers or such Agent as a result of the failure of either Borrower or such Agent to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, which Taxes would not have been incurred or payable if such Participant had been a Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States that was entitled to deliver to the Borrowers, such
-104-
Agent or such Lender, and did in fact so deliver, a duly completed and valid Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) entitling such Participant to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal taxes.
SECTION 13.12. Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Greektown Holdings or any of its Affiliates in which either Greektown Holdings or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.
SECTION 13.13. Execution by Authorized Representative. Any signature by any Authorized Representative on this Agreement, any Loan Document and any other instrument and certificate executed or to be executed pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or such other Loan Documents is provided only in such Authorized Representative’s capacity as an officer or member of the Person in question, and not in any way in such Authorized Representative’s personal capacity.
SECTION 13.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE AGENTS, THE LENDERS, EACH BORROWER AND EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE AGENTS, THE LENDERS, THE BORROWERS OR THE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH. EACH BORROWER AND EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.
SECTION 13.15. Maximum Rate of Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents shall be construed to permit the Lenders to charge or receive at any time interest, fees or other charges in excess of the amounts which the Lenders are legally entitled to charge and receive under any law to which such interest, fees or charges are subject. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the compensation payable to the Lenders by any Person, howsoever characterized or computed, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law to which such compensation is subject. There is no intention that the Lenders shall contract for, charge or receive compensation in excess of the highest lawful rate, and, in the event it should be determined that the Lenders have contracted for any rate of interest in excess of the highest lawful rate, then ipso facto such rate shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate so that no amounts shall be charged or received which are in excess thereof, and, in the event it should be determined that any excess over such highest lawful rate has been charged or received, the Lenders shall promptly refund such excess
-105-
to the Person entitled thereto; provided, however, that, if lawful, any such excess shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Lenders as additional interest (accruing at a rate equal to the maximum legal rate minus the rate provided for hereunder) during any subsequent period when regular interest is accruing hereunder at less than the maximum legal rate.
SECTION 13.16. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence as to all times and dates set forth in or applicable to this Agreement with respect to all payments to be made by or on behalf of the Borrowers hereunder; provided, however, that whenever any payment to be made under the Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest payable hereunder.
SECTION 13.17. Consent or Approval of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
(a) Any request by the Borrowers for consent or approval by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Operative Documents shall be given in writing in accordance with Section 13.2. Except where a specific time period for response is otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have five (5) Business Days and the Lenders shall have fifteen (15) Business Days to grant or deny any such request. If the Administrative Agent fails to respond to any such request in writing within such five (5) Business Day period or the Lenders fail to respond to any such request in writing within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, the Borrowers’ request shall be deemed disapproved.
(b) No Claims may be made by the Borrowers or any other Person against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Affiliate of the foregoing, or the officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants or agents of any of them for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any Claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by the other Operative Documents, or an act, omission, or event occurring in connection therewith; and each Borrower, for itself and for all Persons claiming by, through and under it, waives, releases, and agrees not to xxx upon any Claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
SECTION 13.18. No Third Party Beneficiary. All conditions of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Lenders, and no Person (x) shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that the Lenders will refuse to make Loans in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions or (y) shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary under this Agreement or of such conditions, any or all of which may be waived in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time if they, in their sole discretion, deem. it advisable to do so. The waiver by the Lenders at any time of any of such conditions shall be deemed to be made pursuant to, and not in modification of, this Agreement.
SECTION 13.19. Cumulative Remedies. No right or remedy conferred upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy contained in the other Loan Documents or at law and equity and every such right
-106-
and remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy contained in the other Loan Documents and as now or hereafter available to the Lenders at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise.
SECTION 13.20. Estoppel Certificates. Each Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent all instruments and certificates as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (including estoppel certificates certifying that the Loans and each of the Loan Documents are in full force and effect and that there are no defenses or offsets, claims or counterclaims with respect thereto or if there are, stating the nature of such defenses, offsets, claims or counterclaims) to effect, confirm or assure the rights, remedies and Liens intended to be granted to the Lenders under the Loan Documents.
SECTION 13.21. Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors.
(a) Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.
(b) Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 13.21), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor without preferences or distinction between them.
(c) if and to the extent that either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due, or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.
(d) The Obligations of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor under the provisions of this Section 13.21 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor enforceable against each such Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantor to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever.
(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any borrowings issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of
-107-
the occurrence of any Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Administrative Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 13.21, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 13.21, it being the intention of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 13.21 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 13.21 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to either Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The joint and several liability of the Persons composing Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, constitution or place of formation of any of the Persons composing Borrowers, Subsidiary Guarantor or the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
(f) Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantor is currently informed of the financial condition of the other Borrowers and the other Subsidiary Guarantors and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor further represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby covenants that such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor will continue to keep informed of the Borrowers’ and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors, if any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(g) The provisions of this Section 13.21 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against either or both of the Borrowers and any of the Subsidiary Guarantor as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, successor or assign first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Borrower or the other Subsidiary Guarantors or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against the other Borrower or the other Subsidiary Guarantors to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 13.21 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 13.21 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.
(h) Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor may have against the other Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to any payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, their debts or their assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to the other Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors therefor.
(i) Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the Indebtedness owing by either Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the other Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors are hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that it will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of the other Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors owing to such Borrower or to any such Subsidiary Guarantor until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such Indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall deliver any such amounts to the Lenders for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 3.1.2.
-109-
SECTION 13.22. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender or such Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.
SECTION 13.23. No Fiduciary Duties. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrowers, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and Borrowers, their stockholders or their affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and Borrowers, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Borrowers, their stockholders or their affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise Borrowers, their stockholders or their Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to Borrowers except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of Borrowers, their management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to Borrowers, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Permanent Casino: To obtain the permanent certificate of occupancy for the Permanent Casino, the Operating Company must first obtain from the City’s Building & Safety Engineering Department an amended or replacement building permit for the Permanent Casino based on permit drawings showing the Event Center as core and shell space without interior improvements other than life safety improvements. The City’s Planning Department officials have determined that the completion of the Event Center as core and shell space would constitute a material change to the July 15, 2006 conceptual drawing approved by City Council in connection with the SD-5 zoning for the Permanent Casino Complex and that the amended or replacement building permit cannot be issued until the revised permit drawings are approved by City Council. The Operating Company has taken steps required to obtain the approval of City Council. The Planning Commission has scheduled a public hearing on the Operating Company’s requested change to the July 15, 2006 site plan approval drawings for December 3, 2009.

Entertainment Interests Group, L.L.C.

Greektown Holdings, Kewadin, and Monroe dispute that they breached this Purchase Agreement, and they instead contend that EIG breached the Purchase Agreement and treated the Purchase Agreement as terminated and has admitted that it was impossible for it to perform. Regardless, Greektown Holdings, |

Kewadin, and Monroe contend that EIG has not been harmed by any breach and has not lost any profits and, in any event, will do much better investing its funds elsewhere in other ventures. |

The Operating Company obtained a building permit from the City’s Department of Building & Safety Engineering for the construction of the Permanent Casino based on permit drawings which showed the Event Center as completed space. The Operating Company has attempted to obtain an amended or replacement building permit for the Casino based on permit drawings showing the Event Center as core and shell space without interior improvements other than life safety improvements. The City’s Planning Department officials have determined that the completion of the Event Center as core and shell space would constitute a material change to the July 15, 2006 conceptual drawing approved by City Council in connection with the SD-5 zoning for the Permanent Casino Complex and that the amended or replacement building permit cannot be issued until the revised permit drawings are approved by City Council. The Operating Company has taken steps required to obtain the approval of City Council. The Planning Commission has scheduled a public hearing on the Operating Company’s requested change to the July 15, 2006 site plan approval drawings for December 3, 2009. It will be necessary for City Council to conduct a public hearing and approve the change to the July 15, 2006 site plan approval drawings. |

|
|
|
(b) Pursuant to section 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, a valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully-perfected, junior security interest in and lien upon all pre-petition and post-petition property of the Debtors, whether then existing or thereafter acquired, that was subject to valid, perfected non-avoidable and enforceable liens, if any, in existence as of the Petition Date (other than the Pre-Petition Liens), which security interests and liens in favor of the Original DIP |
|
|
|
Agent were immediately junior to such valid, perfected and unavoidable liens, if any, including, without limitation, in all cash and cash collateral of the Debtors and any investment of such cash and cash collateral, inventory, any accounts receivable, other right to payment whether arising before or after the Petition Date, contracts, properties, plants, equipment, general intangibles, documents, instruments, interests in leaseholds, real properties, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, other intellectual property, capital stock of subsidiaries, and the proceeds of all the foregoing. |
|
|
|
(c) Pursuant to section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code, a valid, binding, continuing, enforceable, fully-perfected, first priority, senior security interest in and lien upon all Pre-Petition Collateral which was senior solely to the Pre-Petition Liens and any claims of the Pre-Petition Secured Parties. |
(iv) Consistent with the terms of this Order, all obligations owed or at any time owing to the Original DIP Agent and/or any of the Original DIP Lenders under or in connection with the Original DIP Loan Documents, including, without limitation all post-petition obligations, loans, advances, letters of credit and other indebtedness, obligations, and amounts (contingent or otherwise), including fees, expenses (including any attorneys’, accountants’, appraisers’, consultants’ and financial advisors’ fees that are chargeable or reimburseable under the Original DIP Loan Documents), charges and any and all other obligations incurred in connection with, and as provided in the Original DIP Loan Documents, are defined and referred to herein as the “Original DIP Obligations”. Upon the Effective Date, a portion of the proceeds of the DIP Credit Agreement shall be used to repay, in full, in cash, the Original DIP Obligations, and all such obligations, including all liens granted in connection therewith, shall be
repaid, satisfied, released and discharged in full in accordance with the Original DIP Loan Documents on the Effective Date; provided, however, that all outstanding reasonable professional fees owed to the Original DIP Agent under or in connection with the Original DIP Loan Documents shall be paid by the Debtors in ordinary course and the process for such reimbursement shall be done in accordance with the Original Final Amended Order; further, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained herein, certain obligations of the Borrowers under the Original DIP Loan Documents, including the obligations to pay the costs and expenses of the Original DIP Agent and to indemnify the Original DIP Agent and Original DIP Lenders against certain liabilities, including but not limited to the obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 13.3 and 13.4 of the Original DIP Credit Agreement, and Section 22 of the Original Final Amended Order, expressly survive the termination of the Original DIP Loan Documents to the extent provided for therein, and such obligations shall constitute allowed, super-priority claims that are entitled to super-priority treatment under section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.
4. Need for Financing.
(i) There is an immediate and critical need for the Borrowers and the Guarantors to obtain additional funds and continue to use the Pre-Petition Collateral and DIP Collateral (as defined below), including Cash Collateral, in order, among other things, to: (a) maintain the construction of the permanent casino and hotel; (b) repay the Original DIP Outstanding Amount, which matures on December 31, 2009, and satisfy, release and discharge the Original DIP Obligations in accordance with the Original DIP Loan Documents pursuant to the DIP Credit Agreement; (c) continue the orderly operation of their businesses; (d) maintain their business relationships with vendors, suppliers and customers; (e) make payroll, capital
expenditures and satisfy other working capital and operational needs; and (f) maintain the Debtors’ business while a plan of reorganization or other transaction is negotiated. The access of the Debtors to sufficient working capital and liquidity through the use of Cash Collateral, incurrence of new indebtedness for borrowed money and other financial accommodations is vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going concern values of the Debtors and to a successful reorganization of the Debtors.
(ii) The Debtors continue to be unable to obtain unsecured credit allowable only as an unsecured, administrative expense claim under section 503(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors also continue to be unable to obtain credit allowable under sections 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2) or 364(c)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code without the Debtors’ granting to the DIP Agents (for the benefit of the DIP Lenders) liens on the assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors pursuant to sections 364(c)(2), 364(c)(3) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code and super-priority claim status pursuant to section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code for its administrative claim under section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, in each case as provided by the DIP Loan Documents.
(iii) The terms of the DIP Credit Agreement and the use of Cash Collateral are fair and reasonable, reflect the Debtors’ exercise of prudent business judgment consistent with their fiduciary duties and constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration.
(iv) The ability of the Debtors to continue their businesses and reorganize under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code depends upon the Debtors obtaining such additional financing and using Cash Collateral.
(v) Without the ability to obtain the requested borrowings under the DIP Credit Agreement, the Debtors’ ability to confirm a plan of reorganization and emerge successfully from the Chapter 11 Cases would be severely compromised.
(vi) It is in the best interests of the Debtors’ estates that they continue to be allowed to finance their operations and use Cash Collateral under the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the other DIP Loan Documents. The relief requested by the Motion is necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to the Debtors’ estates, and good, adequate and sufficient cause has been shown to justify the granting of the relief requested herein, and the immediate entry of this Order.
(vii) Based upon the record before the Court, the use of Cash Collateral and the terms of the DIP Loan Documents have been negotiated at arm’s length and in “good faith,” as that term is used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and are in the best interests of the Debtors, their estates and creditors. The DIP Agents and DIP Lenders have extended and are extending financing to the Debtors, and have otherwise entered into the DIP Loan Documents, in good faith and are entitled to the benefits and protections of the provisions of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Pre-Petition Secured Parties have permitted and are permitting the use of their Cash Collateral and Pre-Petition Collateral in good faith.
5. Debtors’ Stipulations. The Debtors have stipulated, acknowledged, admitted, represented, and confirmed the following, as of the Petition Date which, consistent with the terms of the Original DIP Orders, now constitute findings of this Court that are binding on the
estate and all parties in interest, except to the limited extent provided in the proviso of paragraph 23 (vi) of this Order: 3
(i) Pre Petition Loan Documents. The Pre-Petition Secured Parties made loans and other financial accommodations to the Borrowers that were unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors. As of the Petition Date, each Borrower and each Guarantor was liable to the Pre-Petition Secured Parties in respect of loans made by the Pre-Petition Secured Parties pursuant to the Pre-Petition Loan Documents in an aggregate amount of not less than $314,500,000, plus interest thereon and fees, expenses (including any attorneys’, accountants’, appraisers’, consultants’ and financial advisors’ fees that are chargeable or reimbursable under the Pre-Petition Loan Documents), charges, costs resulting from termination of any hedge, swap or derivative agreements and other obligations incurred in connection therewith, as provided in the Pre-Petition Loan Documents.
(ii) Pre petition Collateral. The Pre-Petition Agent (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Pre-Petition Lenders) perfected its mortgages, security interests and liens in and on the Pre-Petition Collateral.
(iii) Pre-Petition Loan Documents. Each Pre-Petition Loan Document is a valid and binding agreement and the Debtors are obligated to the Pre-Petition Secured Parties to the extent provided thereunder.
(iv) Pre-Petition Obligations. The Pre-Petition Obligations constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrowers or the Guarantors, as applicable, enforceable in Pursuant3 to the Original DIP Orders, the Debtors agreed to various stipulations. The Committee and all other parties in interest were granted an opportunity to challenge or controvert any of the Debtors’ Stipulations (as defined in the Original DIP Orders), but did not assert such a challenge within the time period permitted under the Original DIP Orders.
accordance with their terms; the Debtors have no objection, offset, defense or counterclaim of any kind or nature to the Pre-Petition Obligations; and the Pre-Petition Obligations, and any amounts previously paid to any Pre-Petition Secured Party on account thereof or with respect thereto, are not subject to avoidance, reduction, disallowance, impairment or subordination pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law. The Pre-Petition Obligations constitute allowed secured claims against the Borrowers or the Guarantors, as applicable, in these Chapter 11 Cases and any Successor Case, including for purposes of receiving distributions made pursuant to a plan of reorganization, and for the purposes of effecting a credit bid under section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or under a plan of reorganization, in the Chapter 11 Cases and any Successor Case.
(v) Pre-Petition Liens. The Pre-Petition Obligations are secured by the Pre-Petition Liens and each and every Pre-Petition Lien is a valid, binding, perfected, enforceable, first-priority mortgage, lien and security interest granted to the Pre-Petition Secured Parties, which is not subject to avoidance, reduction, disallowance, impairment or subordination by the Debtors pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or applicable non-bankruptcy law.
6. Michigan Gaming Commission. On December [15], 2009, the Michigan Gaming Control Board (the “MGCB”) approved the DIP Obligations, as required by applicable non-bankruptcy law. Subsequently, the Borrowers and Guarantors executed the DIP Loan Documents, with the effectiveness thereof subject to, among other things, the entry of this Order.
7. Consensual Priming. The Pre-Petition Secured Parties have not objected and thereby have consented to the priming of the Pre-Petition Liens by the Post-Petition Liens (as defined below) and the Debtors’ use of Cash Collateral on the terms and conditions set forth in
the DIP Loan Documents. The adequate protection provided herein and other benefits and privileges contained herein are consistent with and authorized by the Bankruptcy Code and are necessary in order to obtain such consent or non-objection of such parties.

b. In consideration of the assignment described above, Assignee hereby agrees to pay to Assignor, on the Settlement Date, the principal amount of any outstanding Loans included within the Assigned Share, such payment to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the applicable payment instructions set forth in Item 5 of the Schedule of Terms.
c. Assignor hereby represents and warrants that Item 3 of the Schedule of Terms correctly sets forth the amount of the Commitments, the outstanding Loans and the Pro Rata Share corresponding to the Assigned Share.
d. Assignor and Assignee hereby agree that, after giving effect to the assignment and assumption described above, (i) Assignee shall be a party to the DIP Credit Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, and shall be deemed to have made all of the covenants and agreements contained in the Loan Documents, arising out of or otherwise related to the Assigned Share from and after the Settlement Date; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to permit the Assignee to take any independent default-related action against the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, nor any action that is not pursuant to the Loan Documents, and (ii) Assignor shall be absolutely released from any of such obligations, covenants and agreements assumed or made by Assignee in respect of the Assigned
Share first arising after the Settlement Date. Assignee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the agreement set forth in this clause (d) is expressly made for the benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, Assignor and the other Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
e. Assignor and Assignee hereby acknowledge and confirm their understanding and intent that (i) this Agreement shall effect the assignment by Assignor and the assumption by Assignee of Assignor’s rights and obligations with respect to the Assigned Share from and after the Settlement Date, (ii) any other assignments by Assignor of a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to the Commitments and any outstanding Loans shall have no effect on the Commitments, the outstanding Loans and the Pro Rata Share corresponding to the Assigned Share as set forth in Item 3 of the Schedule of Terms, and (iii) from and after the Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments under the DIP Credit Agreement in respect of the Assigned Share (including all payments of principal and accrued but unpaid interest, and commitment fees with respect thereto) (A) in the case of any such interest and fees that shall have accrued prior to the Settlement Date, to Assignor, and (B) in all other cases to Assignee; provided, however, that Assignor and Assignee shall make payments directly to each other to the extent necessary to effect any appropriate adjustments in any amounts distributed to Assignor and/or Assignee by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents in respect of the Assigned Share in the event that, for any reason whatsoever, the payment of consideration contemplated by clause (b) of this Section 1 occurs on a date other than the Settlement Date.

a. Assignor represents and warrants that immediately prior to this Assignment it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Assigned Share, free and clear of any adverse claim.
b. Assignor shall not be responsible to Assignee for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of any of the Loan Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by Assignor to Assignee or by or on behalf of the Borrowers to Assignor or Assignee in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of the Borrowers or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall Assignor be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or potential Event of Default.
c. Assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee; that it has acquired the Assigned Share for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of the Loans within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of Section 13.11 of the DIP Credit Agreement, the disposition of the Assigned Share or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control); that it has received,
2

Assignor shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Assignee or to provide Assignee with any other credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the initial Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and Assignor shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Assignee.
e.

c.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the agreement between Bank and Company governing the Accounts, Bank will comply with instructions originated by Agent as set forth herein directing the disposition of funds in the Accounts without further consent of the Company.
(c) Company represents and warrants to Agent and Bank that it has not assigned or granted a security interest in the Accounts or any Check deposited in the Accounts, except to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
(d) Company will not permit the Accounts to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind, other than Agent’s security interest referred to herein.
(e) Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Parties and of the Company in the Accounts, the Bank to its best knowledge on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, or security interest in, any of the Accounts or in any funds credited thereto and to its best knowledge does not know of any claim that any Person other than the Agent has been given “control” of any of the Accounts or any such funds. If any Person asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process and any claim of “control”) against any funds in the Accounts, the Bank will promptly notify the Company thereof and the Company will promptly provide the Agent with a copy of any such notice.

Bank shall have no liability in the event Company breaches this covenant to Agent. Immediately upon the commencement of the Activation Period, and continuing on each Business Day thereafter, Bank shall transfer all collected and available balances in the Accounts to Agent at its account specified in the Notice (as defined below).

|
|
|
3. In the event that the Bank has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any of the Accounts, the Bank hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to that of the Secured Parties. The funds deposited into the Accounts will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Secured Parties except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

|
|
|
4. Bank is permitted to charge the Accounts: |
(a) for its fees and charges relating to such Account or this Agreement; and
(b) in the event any Check deposited into such Account is returned unpaid for any reason or for any breach of warranty claim.
5. (a) If the balances in an Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any fees or charges due Bank in connection with such Account or this Agreement, Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. Company will have breached this Agreement if it has not paid Bank, within five Business Days after such demand, the amount due Bank.
(b) If the balances in an Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any returned Check, Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. If Company fails to so pay
-2-
Bank within five Business Days after demand therefor, Agent agrees to pay Bank within five Business Days after Bank’s demand to Agent to pay any amount received by, or distributed at the direction of, Agent pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to such returned Check.

If Bank is stayed from making demand upon Company as a result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, then Bank shall not be required to make such demand upon Company prior to making demand upon Agent.
(c) Company hereby authorizes Bank, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account Company may have with Bank for the amount or amounts due Bank under subsection 5(a) or 5(b).
(d) The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b) In no event will Bank be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.
(c) Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Bank’s reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of Company or Agent or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Bank’s reasonable belief that the action would have violated any guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.
(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether Company’s obligations to Agent are in default or whether Agent is entitled to provide the Notice to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party.
(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Tixxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xode, filed by or against Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against Company, Bank may act as Bank reasonably deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result.
-3-

|
|
|
(b) Company shall pay to Bank, upon receipt of Bank’s invoice, all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Bank in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, including but not limited to any such costs, expenses and fees arising out of the resolution of any conflict, dispute, motion regarding entitlement to rights or rights of action, or other action to enforce Bank’s rights in a case arising under Tixxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xode.
