THE COMMITMENT AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS

2.01    Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender agrees to (a) make term loans on the Closing Date to the Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount of $6,222,000, the amounts and amortization schedules of which Loans are more specifically set forth on Schedule 2.01 (a) and the proceeds of which Loans shall be used to refinance Indebtedness under the U.S. Bank Facility secured by the Refinanced Property, and (b) from

21

time to time to make additional term loans to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period to acquire additional fee simple interests in real property to be utilized in the business of the Borrowers (the “Acquired Property”); provided, in each case that (i) the maximum principal amount of Loans available hereunder with respect to any individual Mortgaged Property shall not exceed $250,000, or if an Acceptable Appraisal is furnished to the Lender with respect to such Mortgaged Property, the lesser of $250,000 and 100% of the Appraised Value of such Mortgaged Property, and (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of all Loans outstanding hereunder shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (x) the Commitment, and (y) the Borrowing Base. A Loan may be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan, as further provided herein. Except as otherwise set forth herein (including Article IX hereof), the obligations of each Borrower to repay the Loans made available to it (or the Borrowing Agent on its behalf) and accrued interest thereon are several and not joint.

2.02    Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a)       Each borrowing and each conversion of a Loan from one Type to the other shall be made upon the Borrowing Agent’s irrevocable notice to the Lender, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (i) ten Business Days prior to the requested date of any borrowing utilized to acquire any Acquired Property, and (ii) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any conversion of a Base Rate Loan, to a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan or of a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the provisions of Section 10.02(d), any such telephonic notice may be given by an individual who has been authorized in writing to do so by an officer of the Borrowing Agent. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Lender of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by an officer of the Borrowing Agent. Except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 2.01(a), each borrowing shall be in a principal amount of $150,000 or a whole multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a borrowing or a conversion of a Loan from one Type to the other, (ii) the requested date of the borrowing or conversion, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of the Loan to be borrowed or converted, (iv) the Type of Loan to be borrowed or to which an existing Loan is to be converted, and (v) the applicable Borrower for which the Borrowing Agent has requested such borrowing. If the Borrowing Agent fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice, then the applicable Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.

(b)       Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if a borrowing is the initial Loan, Section 4.01), the Lender shall make the proceeds of each Loan available to applicable Borrowers either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrowing Agent or such Borrower on the books of the Lender with the amount of such proceeds or (ii) wire transfer of such proceeds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Lender by the Borrowing Agent.

(c)       During the existence of a Default, no Loan may be requested as or converted to a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan without the consent of the Lender, and, at the election of the Lender, all LIBOR Floating Rate Loans shall convert to Base Rate Loans.

22

(d)       The Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowing Agent of the interest rate applicable to any LIBOR Floating Rate Loan upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate by the Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that a Base Rate Loan is outstanding, the Lender shall notify the Borrowing Agent of any change in the Lender’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

2.03    Prepayments.

(a)       Voluntary Prepayments. Any Borrower may, upon notice to the Lender, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay any Loan in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan; and (ii) any prepayment of a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan shall be in a principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loan(s) to be prepaid. If such notice is given by any Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(b)       Mandatory Prepayments. (i) If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceed the lesser of the Commitment or the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers shall immediately prepay Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; and (ii) in the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of any Borrower in respect of any Prepayment Event, such Borrower shall, immediately after such Net Cash Proceeds are received, prepay the Loans secured by the Mortgaged Property that is the subject matter of such Prepayment Event in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(c)       Application of Prepayments. Prepayments shall be applied to the remaining installments of any Loan prepaid in the inverse order of maturity.

2.04    Termination or Reduction of Commitment. The Borrowers may, upon notice to the Lender, terminate the Commitment, or from time to time permanently reduce the Commitment; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Lender not later than 1:00 p.m., five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $200,000 or any whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Commitment if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Commitment. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

2.05    Repayment of Loans.

(a)       Each Borrower shall:

(i)        make equal monthly payments of principal on each Loan made to it (or on its behalf) on the last Business Day of each month, in each case based on the amortization schedules set forth below and commencing on the last Business Day of the month next

23

succeeding the month in which such Loan is advanced hereunder (collectively, the “Scheduled Amortization”):

Borrower		Amortization Schedule
REM Arrowhead, Inc. REM Connecticut Community Services, Inc. REM Wisconsin, Inc. REM Wisconsin II, Inc. REM Wisconsin III, Inc.		20 years
REM Indiana, Inc.		12 years
REM North Dakota, Inc.		5 years
Designated Borrowers		20 years unless otherwise agreed between the Lender and the Borrowing Agent in writing on or before the date of such Loan

provided, in each case that the Scheduled Amortization with respect to each Loan utilized with respect to a Refinanced Property shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.01(a); and

(ii)       repay the remaining any outstanding principal balance of the Loans made to it (or on its behalf) on the Maturity Date.

2.06    Interest.

(a)       Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each LIBOR Floating Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)       (i)        If any amount payable by the Borrowers under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii)       While any Event of Default exists, the Borrowers shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

24

(iii)      Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c)       Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.07    Fees. Each Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees to pay to the Lender a fee equal to 0.50% of the Commitment, payable on the Closing Date. Such fee shall be fully earned when payable and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.08    Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the Lender’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.10(a), bear interest for one day.

2.09    Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lender to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of any Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. The Notes shall evidence the Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. The Lender may attach schedules to the Notes and endorse thereon the date, Type, amount and maturity of each Loan and payments with respect thereto. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.10    Payments Generally.

(a)       All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Lender at the applicable Lending Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

25

(b)       If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c)       The Loan Parties irrevocably authorize the Lender to debit Bank of America Deposit Account #0055151344 (ABA number: 000000000; Account Name: Mentor Management, Inc.) (or such other account as the Loan Parties may have with the Lender from time to time) for all payments due under this Agreement.

(d)       Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate the Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by the Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.11    Borrowing Agent. Each of the Borrowers hereby directs the Lender to disburse the proceeds of each Loan, to or at the direction of Mentor (the “Borrowing Agent”), and such distribution will, in all circumstances, be deemed to be made to the applicable Borrower(s), From time to time, the Borrowing Agent shall further distribute the proceeds of the Loans to the particular Borrower or Borrowers, and each Borrower represents and warrants that the subsequent receipt and use of such proceeds and benefits by any particular Borrower inures to the economic benefit directly and indirectly of the other Borrowers. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates, appoints, authorizes and directs the Borrowing Agent (including each of the Borrowing Agent’s officers) to act on behalf of such Borrower for the purposes set forth in this Section 2.11, and to act on behalf of such Borrower for purposes of giving notice to the Lender of requests for Loans, conversions and for otherwise giving and receiving notices and certifications under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and otherwise for taking all other action contemplated to be taken by the Borrowing Agent (including each of the Borrowing Agent’s officers) hereunder or under any other Loan Document. The Lender is entitled to rely and act on the instructions of the Borrowing Agent, by and through any officer, on behalf of each of the Borrowers. Each Borrower covenants and agrees to assume liability for and to protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Lender from any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, causes of action, costs, charges and expenses (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees), which may be incurred by, imposed or asserted against the Lender, howsoever arising or incurred because of, out of or in connection with the disbursements of any Loan in accordance with this Section 2.11; provided, however, the liability of the Borrowers pursuant to this indemnity shall not extend to any liability, obligation, damage, penalty, claim, cause of action, cost, charge or expense caused by or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender. The Borrowing Agent shall maintain detailed accounting and records of all disbursements and payments made to each Borrower with respect to proceeds of Loans received by it. Not in any way in limitation of any other provisions set forth herein, such books and records may be reviewed and copied by the Lender at the Borrowing Agent’s expense at reasonable intervals and upon reasonable notice given by the Lender to the Borrowing Agent.

2.12    Increase in Commitments.

26

(b)       The Lender shall notify the Borrowing Agent as to whether or not it agrees to increase the Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, or less than, such requested increase.

(c)       If the Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the Lender and the Borrowing Agent shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”).

(d)       As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrowing Agent shall deliver to the Lender a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrowing Agent, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.12, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.01 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists.

(e)       This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

2.13    Designated Borrowers.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein the Lender shall have received such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form and content satisfactory to the Lender as may be required by the Lenders in its reasonable discretion, and a Note signed by such new Applicant Borrower. If the Lender agrees that an Applicant Borrower shall be entitled to receive Loans hereunder, then promptly following receipt of all such requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Lender shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit C (a “Designated Borrower Notice”) to the Borrowing Agent specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon from and after such Applicant Borrower shall be a “Designated Borrower” and the Lender agrees to permit such Designated Borrower to receive Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement. Each Subsidiary that is or becomes a Designated Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall at all times remain a direct or indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiary of Mentor for so long as such Person is a Designated Borrower.

27

(b)       Each Subsidiary of Mentor that is or becomes a Designated Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.13 hereby irrevocably appoints the Borrowing Agent as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, as more particularly set forth in Section 2.11 above.

ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01    Taxes.

(a)       Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)       Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)       Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)       Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

3.02    Illegality. If the Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Floating Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of the Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrowers, any obligation of the Lender to make LIBOR Floating Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans

28

to LIBOR Floating Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, immediately upon demand from the Lender, prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Floating Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans.

3.03    Inability to Determine LIBOR Floating Rate. If the Lender determines that for any reason in connection with any request for a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan or a conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount of such LIBOR Floating Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate with respect to a proposed LIBOR Floating Rate Loan, or (c) the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate with respect to a proposed LIBOR Floating Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding such Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrowing Agent. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Floating Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of or conversion to a LIBOR Floating Rate Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

3.04    Increased Costs.

(c)       Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Monthly Floating Rate);

(ii) subject the Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan, or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by the Lender); or

(iii) impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Lender, the applicable Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(d)       Capital Requirements. If the Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting the Lender or its Lending Office or the Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital

29

or on the capital of the Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of the Lender or the Loans made by the Lender, to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies and the policies of the Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or the Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(e)       Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(f)        Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.05    Mitigation Obligations. If the Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to the Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of the Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if the Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of the Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to the Lender. The Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.06    Survival. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitment and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

33

derivatives, that are not reflected in the financial statements referenced in subparagraph (b) above.

5.02    No Change. Since the date of the Audited Financial Statements, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.03    Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (provided that each of Unlimited Quest, Inc. may not, on the date hereof, be in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization but such failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.04    Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No material consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 5.04, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 5.19.

5.05    No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member (other than the Magellan Note Documents) and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any

34

Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Mortgages).

5.06    Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.06, no litigation, or to the knowledge of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower, no investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the best knowledge of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) as of the Closing Date, with respect to the Magellan Seller Notes, or (c) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.07    No Default. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.07, no Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

5.08    Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and marketable title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.03. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Borrower has marketable fee simple title in the Mortgaged Properties subject to the Mortgages executed by it, including the Refinanced Property subject to each such Mortgage.

5.09    Licenses, Intellectual Property. Except as in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or as set forth in Schedule 5.09 (all of which items set forth in Schedule 5.09 in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), each Group Member has all necessary licenses, permits, franchises, rights to participate in, or the benefit of valid agreements to participate in material Third Party Payor Programs and other rights necessary for the conduct of its business and for the intended use of its properties and assets to the extent necessary to ensure no material interruption in cash flow. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except to the extent that a failure would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower have knowledge of any valid basis for any such claim. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect.

5.10    Taxes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, material state and other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all material taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Group Member); no tax

35

Lien has been filed (other than Permitted Liens), and, to the knowledge of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

No part of the proceeds of any Loans will be used (a) for “buying” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or (b) for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board.

5.13    ERISA. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan during such five-year period has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, (ii) no termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period and (iii) the present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. To the best of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower’s knowledge, neither Mentor nor any Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and to the best of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower’s knowledge, neither Mentor nor any Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if Mentor, such Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent.

5.14    Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(a)       the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the “Properties”) do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted a violation of, or could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law;

(b)       no Group Member has received any notice of any violation, alleged violation, noncompliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member (the “Business”), nor does Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower have knowledge or reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened;

(c)       Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law;

(d)       with respect to any liability arising under any Environmental Law, no judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the best knowledge of Holdings, Mentor or any Borrower, threatened, to which any Group Member is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business;

(e)       there has been no release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from the Properties, or arising from or related to the operations of any Group Member in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the Business, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under Environmental Laws;

37

(f)        the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and within all applicable statute-of-limitations periods have been in compliance, with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business; and

(g)       no Group Member has assumed, contractually or by operation of law, any liability of any other Person under Environmental Laws.

5.18    Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or factual information with respect to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other factual document, certificate or statement (other than any projections, pro formas or other estimates with respect to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries) furnished by or by Persons directed on behalf of any Loan Party to the Lender, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, when taken as a whole, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above were, and the projections hereafter delivered, when delivered, will be based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of each Loan Party to be reasonable at the time made and no Loan Party knows as of the date hereof any fact making such estimates and assumptions no longer true in any material respects, it being recognized by the Lender that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. There is no fact known to any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents.

5.19    Mortgages. Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the Lender, a legal, valid and enforceable (subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights) Lien on the Mortgaged Properties and other Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the appropriate recording offices and financing statements or other filings specified on Schedule 5.19(a) in appropriate form are filed in the offices so specified on Schedule 5.19(a) each such Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties, the Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except that the security interest created in such real property and the Mortgaged Property may be subject to the Permitted Liens related thereto).

GUARANTY

9.01 Guaranty. Each Loan Party hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Lender: (a) the prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all Obligations heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from each other Loan Party to the Lender, including principal, interest, premiums and fees (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses); and (b) each other Loan Party’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance and discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Loan Party (other than Holdings and Mentor) individually with respect to its Guarantor’s Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. Each Loan Party agrees that it is jointly and severally, directly and primarily liable (subject to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the obligations under this Article IX.

9.02 Payment. If any Loan Party shall default in payment or performance of any of the Obligations, whether principal, interest, premium, fee (including, but not limited to, loan fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses), or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any applicable grace period, whether according to the terms of this Agreement, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, then any or all of the other Loan Parties will, upon demand thereof by the Lender, fully pay to the Lender, subject to any restriction on such Person’s Guarantor’s Obligations set forth in Section 9.01 hereof, an amount equal to all the Obligations then due and owing.

9.03 Absolute Rights and Obligations. The guaranty set forth in Section 9.01 hereof is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantors’ Obligations under this Article IX shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Loan Party hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense to its obligations under this Article IX by reason of:

(a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability against any other Loan Party of the Credit Agreement, of any of the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of any other agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantors’ Obligations, or any other guaranty of any of the Obligations (the Loan Documents and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “Related Agreements”);

(b) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any exercise of any right or power therein conferred, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided;

61

(c) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations, of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Loan Party, or of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

(d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for any of the Obligations, for any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any Loan Party, or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

(e) any dissolution of any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or consolidation of any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related Agreement;

(f) any extension (including without limitation extensions of time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities available under, this Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part;

(g) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security therefor) of the Obligations (including without limitation the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Loan Party and obligations arising under any other guaranty now or hereafter in effect);

(h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other consent to any change in or departure from any term or provision contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Loan Party, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement;

(i) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any such Loan Party) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Loan Party, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including without limitation any right to require or claim that resort be had to the assets of any other Loan Party or to any Collateral.

It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Article IX and the Guarantors’ Obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as herein provided.

9.04 Waiver of Notice; Subrogation.

(a) Each Loan Party hereby waives to the extent permitted by law notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of this Article IX; (ii) the Lender’s heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and otherwise loaning monies or giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of the other Loan Parties, whether pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or Related Agreement or any amendments,

62

modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iv) any other event, condition, or occurrence described in Section 9.03 hereof. Each Loan Party agrees that the Lender may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Loan Party from its Guarantor’s Obligations, and each Loan Party hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or occurrences.

(b) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that payment or performance by such Loan Party of its Guarantor’s Obligations under this Article IX may be enforced by the Lender upon demand by the Lender to such Loan Party without the Lender being required, such Loan Party expressly waiving to the extent permitted by law any right it may have to require the Lender, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against any other Loan Party or any other guarantor of the Obligations, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Lender or other party to a Related Agreement by any other Person on account of the Obligations or any guaranty thereof.

(c) Each Loan Party agrees with respect to this Article IX that it shall have no right of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to security for the Obligation unless and until 93 days immediately following the date that all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in cash and the Commitment and all other obligations of the Lender hereunder have terminated. This waiver is expressly intended to prevent the existence of any claim in respect to such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnity by any Loan Party against the estate of any other Loan Party within the meaning of Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the event of a subsequent case involving any other Loan Party. If an amount shall be paid to any Loan Party on account of such rights at any time prior to termination of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lender and shall forthwith be paid to the Lender to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as the Lender may elect.

(d) Each Loan Party further agrees with respect to this Article IX that this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, at any time payment received by the Lender in respect of any Obligation is rescinded or must be restored for any reason, or is repaid by the Lender in whole or in part in good faith settlement of any pending or threatened avoidance claim.

(e) The agreements in this Article IX shall survive repayment of all of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver new or replacement Notes to the Lender and the assignee, and shall execute and deliver any other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to give effect to such assignment and to provide for the administration of this Agreement after giving effect thereto.

(c) The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Loan Party, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or a Loan Party’s or any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or Loans); provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Loan Parties for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Loan Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Subject to subsection (d) of this Section, each Loan Party agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 and 3.04 to the same extent as if it were the Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were the Lender.

(d) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Mentor’s prior written consent. A Participant that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless Mentor is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Loan Parties, to provide to the Lender such tax forms prescribed by the IRS as are necessary or desirable to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax.

(e) The Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under the Notes, if any) to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

10.07 Confidentiality. The Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates and to its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party, (g) with the consent of Mentor or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than any Loan Party. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to such Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Loan Party, provided that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to setoff and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Lender, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have. The Lender agrees to notify Mentor promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the

68

excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lender may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Lender and when the Lender shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE ANY LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

10.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS

70

BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

The Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow the Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Act.
