Article, or as otherwise consented to in writing by the holders of Senior Debt,
the Purchaser
15
shall not (a) receive payment of or collect in whole or in part, or xxx upon,
the Senior Subordinated Obligations; (b) sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
hypothecate or encumber the Senior Subordinated Obligations unless the proposed
purchaser, assignee, transferee or pledgee acknowledges in writing that it is
bound by this Article; (c) enforce any lien they may now or in the future have
on the Senior Subordinated Obligations; (d) join in any petition in bankruptcy,
assignment for the benefit of creditors or creditors' agreement, other than the

Senior Debt, so long as the Senior Debt of Company, or commitment to extend
credit to the Company in respect thereof, is in existence; or (e) accept any
pledge or transfer of property (other than shares of stock of the Company) as
security for or in payment of the Senior Subordinated Obligations, or otherwise
defease the Senior Subordinated Obligations.
9.03. Permitted Payments. So long as no default shall have occurred in
payment or performance of any obligation of the Company with respect to the
Senior Debt, payments of interest and principal on the Senior Subordinated
Obligations may be made at payment dates as specified under the Notes (it being

Obligations and no modification, for default or otherwise, of such payment dates
as specified in the Notes shall be permitted without the prior written consent
of all holders of the Senior Debt). Upon prior written notice to all holders of
the Senior Debt, the Purchaser shall be permitted to accelerate the Senior
Subordinated Obligations upon any Event of Default (as defined herein). In the
event the Company or any holder of Senior Debt provides notice to the Purchaser
of default with respect to the Senior Debt of the Company, no interest and no

payment from the Company in violation of the terms of this Article 9, the
Purchaser (a) shall hold such money in trust for the benefit of the holders of
Senior Debt, and (b) shall, upon request of the holders of Senior Debt,
forthwith remit an amount equal to such payment to such holders, or the payment
in the exact form received (but with any necessary endorsement to such holders
without recourse). After the Purchaser has received notice that a payment has
been made to the Purchaser in violation of the terms of this Article 9, the
Purchaser shall segregate such payment from (and shall not commingle such
payment with any of) the other funds of the Purchaser.
9.05. Insolvency, etc. In case of any assignment of the Company for the
benefit of creditors, or in case of any bankruptcy proceedings instituted by or
against the Company, or in case of the appointment of any receiver for the
Company's business or assets, or in case of any dissolution or winding up of the
affairs of the Company, the Company and any assignee, trustee in bankruptcy,
receiver, or other
16
person or persons in charge, are hereby directed to pay to the holders of Senior
Debt the full amount of the Senior Debt of the Company before making any payment
of principal or interest to the Purchaser. Upon payment in full of the amount of
the Senior Debt, the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive any excess proceeds.

shall impair, as between the Company and any holder of Senior Subordinated
Obligations, the obligation of the Company to pay to such holder the principal
thereof and premium, if any, and interest thereon as and when the same shall
become due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof, or prevent any
holder of Senior Subordinated Obligations from exercising all rights, powers and
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law or under any agreement under

rights of the holders of Senior Debt to receive cash, securities or other
property otherwise payable or deliverable to the holders of Senior Subordinated
Obligations.
9.07. Payment of Senior Debt; Subrogation. Upon the payment in full in
cash of all Senior Debt, the holders of Senior Subordinated Obligations shall be

Subordinated Obligations shall have been paid in full, and such payments or
distributions received by the holders of Senior Subordinated Obligations by
reason of such subrogation, of cash, securities or other property that otherwise
would be paid or distributed to the holders of Senior Debt, shall, as between
the Company and its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, on the one
hand, and the holders of Senior Subordinated Obligations, on the other hand, be
deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of Senior Debt and not on
account of Senior Subordinated Obligations.

successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchaser
as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or
covenants made by the Company herein or in any of the Related Agreements. The
Purchaser agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Company and its directors,
officers, affiliates, successors and assigns from and against any and all
losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements)
incurred by any such Person as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the
representations, warranties or covenants made by the Purchaser herein.
13.02. Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification
under this Article 13 (an "indemnified party") will give written notice to the
indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification
promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim
for indemnification; provided that the failure of any party entitled to
indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article 13 except to the
extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to
give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an
indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the
reasonable judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it
and the indemnifying party may exist in respect of such action, proceeding or
claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an
indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification
hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification
notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or
compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or
discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the
indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or
pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party
elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim,
proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising out of
the defense,
25
settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses
subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate
fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense
of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the
indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party
which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the
indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or
any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party
elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be
entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole
cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement
of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent,
provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold,
delay or condition its consent. Anything in this Article 13 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified
party's prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to
entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on
the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term
thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party, a
release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification
required by this Article 13 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount
thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred. The indemnity
agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or
similar right of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others,
and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the
law.
14. MISCELLANEOUS

of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy

provided by law.
