E.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, the undersigned agree as follows:
1. Assignment. Assignor hereby transfers, conveys and assigns to Assignee all right, title and interest of Assignor in, to and under the Secured Term Notes and the Assumed Purchase Agreement and Guaranty Obligation Documents, and does hereby grant and delegate to Assignee any and all of the duties and obligations of Assignor under the Secured Term Notes and the Assumed Purchase Agreement and Guaranty Obligation Documents.
2. Assumption. Assignee hereby accepts the assignment of the Secured Term Notes and the Assumed Purchase Agreement and Guaranty Obligation Documents, and assumes and agrees to observe, perform and be bound by all of the terms, covenants, agreements, conditions and obligations of the Secured Term Notes and the Assumed Purchase Agreement and Guaranty Obligation Documents required to be observed or performed by Assignor.
3. Security Interest in Assets of Assignee.
