SECTION 2.05. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.06. Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, without payment of any premium or penalty and upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Lender stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances in whole or in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.

SECTION 2.07. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender determines that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender to perform its obligations hereunder to make the Advances or to fund or maintain the Advances to be made by it hereunder, the Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lender to make Advances shall be suspended and (b) if the Lender shall so request in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances, together with accrued interest thereon.

Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of the Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

SECTION 2.09. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes (including value-added taxes and withholding taxes), levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and, all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the Lender, (i) taxes imposed on its overall net income (including branch profits taxes), and franchise taxes or similar taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Lender is organized or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of the Lender's principal executive offices or any political subdivision thereof or is otherwise treated as doing business in such jurisdiction, (ii) in the case of the Lender, any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party hereto, (iii) any U.S. backup withholding taxes and (iv) any other taxes imposed as a result of the Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other similar excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.09) imposed on or paid by the Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date the Lender makes written demand therefor.
