any Party under any Financing Document to pay any amount to the Investors or the Borrower, as applicable, and any exclusion of any obligation to pay any amount under this subsection shall not affect the requirement to pay such amount under any other section hereof or under any other agreement.
(b) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any of the Parties hereunder, the agreements and the obligations of the Parties contained in this Section 6.11 shall survive the termination of each other provision hereof and the payment of all amounts payable to the Investors hereunder.
Section 6.12 No Usury. The Financing Documents are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Investors for the Loan exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If from any circumstance whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstance the Investors shall ever receive anything which might be deemed interest under applicable law, that would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be deemed excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on account of the Loan, or if such deemed excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Loan, such deemed excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Investors for the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loan until payment in full so that the deemed rate of interest on account of the Loan is uniform throughout the term thereof. The terms and provisions of this paragraph shall control and supersede every other provision of this Agreement and the Notes.
Section 6.13 Further Assurances. From time to time, the Borrower shall perform any and all acts and execute and deliver to the Investors such additional documents as may be necessary or as requested by the Investors to carry out the purposes of any Financing Document or any or to preserve and protect the Investors’ rights as contemplated therein.
Section 6.14 Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.9(b) upon repayment of all outstanding principal of the Loan (together with any other amounts accrued and unpaid under this Agreement), the Borrower may terminate this Agreement upon 10 days’ notice to the Investors.

The Maker and every endorser of this Note, or the obligations represented hereby, expressly waives presentment, protest, demand, notice of dishonor or default, and notice of any kind with respect to this Note and the Facility Agreement or the performance of the obligations under this Note and/or the Facility Agreement. No renewal or extension of this Note or the Facility Agreement, no release of any Person primarily or secondarily liable on this Note or the Facility Agreement, including the Maker and any endorser, no delay in the enforcement of payment of this Note or the Facility Agreement, and no delay or omission in exercising any right or power under this Note or the Facility Agreement shall affect the liability of the Maker or any endorser of this Note.
No delay or omission by the Payee in exercising any power or right hereunder shall impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right hereunder preclude the full exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.

FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PAYEE, THE MAKER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND HEREBY CONSENTS THAT PERSONAL SERVICE OF SUMMONS OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS MAY BE MADE AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6.4 OF THE FACILITY AGREEMENT, WHICH SERVICE THE MAKER AGREES SHALL BE SUFFICIENT AND VALID. THE MAKER HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS NOTE.

Whenever this Note is held by a noteholder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then it is the intention of the Maker and such noteholder that (x) all interest accrued and paid on this Note will qualify for exemption from United States withholding tax as “portfolio interest” because this Note is an obligation which is in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 871(h)(2)(B) and 881(c)(2)(B) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and (y) as such, all interest accrued and paid on this Note will be exempt from

United States information reporting under Sections 6041 and 6049 of the Code and United States backup withholding under Section 3406 of the Code. The Maker and the Payee shall cooperate with one another, and execute and file such forms or other documents, or do or refrain from doing such other acts, as may be required, to secure such exemptions from United States withholding tax, information reporting, and backup withholding. In furtherance of the foregoing, any transferee or assignee noteholder that is not a United States person shall represent, warrant and covenant to the Maker that (i) such noteholder is not, and will not be as long as any amounts due under this Note have not been paid in full, a “United States person,” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code; (ii) such noteholder is not, and will not be as long as any amounts due under this Note have not been paid in full, a person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code; (iii) on or prior to the date of transfer or assignment (and on or prior to the date the form provided pursuant to this clause (iii) is no longer valid) until all amounts due under this Note have been paid in full, such noteholder shall provide the Maker with a properly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN, Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding (or any successor form prescribed by the IRS), certifying as to such noteholder’s status for purposes of determining exemption from United States withholding tax, information reporting and backup withholding with respect to all payments to be made to such noteholder hereunder; (iv) if an event occurs that would require a change in the exempt status of such noteholder or any of the other information provided on the most recent IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) previously submitted by such noteholder to the Maker, such noteholder will so inform the Maker in writing (or by submitting to the Maker a new IRS Form W-8BEN or successor form) within 30 days after the occurrence of such event; and (v) such noteholder will not assign or otherwise transfer this Note or any of its rights hereunder except in accordance with the provisions hereof.
In order to qualify as a “registered note” for purposes of the Code, transfer of this Note may be effected only by (i) surrender of this Note to the Maker and the re-issuance of this Note to the transferee, or the Maker’s issuance to the Payee of a new note in the same form as this Note but with the transferee denoted as the Payee, or (ii) the recording of the identity of the transferee by the Affiliate of the Payee that is maintaining a record ownership register of this Note as agent to, and on behalf of, the Maker. Such Affiliate in its capacity as such agent shall notify the Maker in writing immediately upon any change in such identity. The terms and conditions of this Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Maker and the Payee and their permitted assigns; provided, however, that if any such assignment (whether by operation of law, by way of transfer or participation, or otherwise) is to any noteholder that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, then such noteholder shall submit to the Maker on or before the date of such assignment an IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) certifying as to such noteholder’s status for purposes of determining exemption from United States withholding tax, information reporting and backup withholding with respect to all payments to be made to such noteholder under the new note (or other instrument). Any attempted transfer in violation of the relevant provisions of this Note shall be void and of no force and effect. Until there has been a valid transfer of this Note and of all of the rights hereunder by the Payee in accordance with this Note, the Maker shall deem and treat the Payee as the absolute beneficial owner and holder of this Note and of all of the rights hereunder for all purposes (including, without limitation, for the purpose of receiving all payments to be made under this Note).
[***] Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
It is the intention of the Maker and the Payee that this Note is to be a registered instrument and not a bearer instrument and the provisions of this Note are to be interpreted accordingly. This Note is intended to be registered as to both principal and interest and all payments hereunder shall be made to the named Payee or, in the event of a transfer pursuant to the Facility Agreement and this Note, to the transferee identified in the record of ownership of this Note maintained by the Payee on behalf of the Maker. Transfer of this Note may not be effected except in accordance with the provisions hereof.
