Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in cash in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein (each such payment, an “Interest Payment”); provided that if on any Interest Payment Date the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries do not have sufficient cash for the Borrower to make the Interest Payment due on such date, and the Borrower shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Lender setting forth calculations demonstrating the same in reasonable detail at least two Business Days prior to such Interest Payment Date, then the amount of such Interest Payment shall be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on such Interest Payment Date. Any accrued and capitalized interest under this Section 2.09(c) shall, after being so capitalized, be treated as part of the principal amount of the Loans and shall bear interest in accordance with this Section 2.09.
2.10 Fees.
(a) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender on the date that is the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on the date on which the Commitments of the Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) equal to 0.125% times the average daily amount of the unused Commitment for such quarter (or for the period from the end of the prior quarter until the termination of the Commitments). The Facility Fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears (calculated on a 360-day basis) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand). The Facility Fee due to the Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the last of the Commitments of the Lender shall be terminated as provided herein.
(b) Other Fees.
(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, on the Closing Date, a commitment fee in the amount of 1.00% of the Commitment as of such date.
(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, in Dollars, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever, absent manifest error.
2.11 Computation of Interest and Fees. 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 2.13(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
2.12 Evidence of Debt. The Borrowings 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 Borrowings made by the Lender to the Borrower 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 the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. Upon the request of the Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender a Revolving Note, which shall evidence the Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. The Lender may attach schedules to its Revolving Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
2.13 Payments Generally.
(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower to the Lender shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower to the Lender hereunder shall be made to the Lender, at the address and account set forth on Schedule 10.02 (or such other address or account as the Lender may from time to time notify the Borrower) in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lender may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. 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. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
(b) Funding Source. 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.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 8.05 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 or its other similarly situated customers’ confidential information.
The Lender acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning a Credit Party or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.
8.06 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 excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person 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.
8.07 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 or other electronic imaging means (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
8.08 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 Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
8.09 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.
8.10 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.
(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO 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 8.10.

ARTICLE IX
GUARANTY
9.01 The Guaranty.
(a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally with the other Subsidiary Guarantors, hereby guarantees to the Lender and each of the holders of the
Obligations, as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise). Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby further agrees that if any of the Guaranteed Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise), the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any of the other Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Obligations, the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law.
9.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 9.01 are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Obligations, or any substitution, compromise, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 9.02 that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower for amounts paid under this Article IX until such time as the Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full and the Commitments relating thereto have expired or been terminated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:
(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;
(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be done or omitted;
(c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or
(d) any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of any Subsidiary Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of any Subsidiary Guarantor).
With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest notice of acceptance of the Guaranty given hereby and of Borrowings that may constitute Guaranteed Obligations, notices of amendments, waivers and supplements to the Loan Documents and other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or the compromise, release or exchange of collateral or security, and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Lender or any holder of the Guaranteed Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or any other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.
9.03 Reinstatement. Neither the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations hereunder nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of the Borrower, by reason of the Borrower’s bankruptcy or insolvency or by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article IX shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings pursuant to any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Lender and each holder of Guaranteed Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Lender or such holder of Guaranteed Obligations in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law.
9.04 Certain Waivers. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Guaranty given hereby may be enforced without the necessity at any time of having to take recourse against the Borrower hereunder, (b) it will not assert any right to require the action first be taken against the Borrower or any other Person or pursuit of any other remedy or enforcement of any other right and (c) nothing contained herein shall prevent or limit action being taken against the Borrower hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or the other documents and agreements relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or from exercising any other rights or remedies available in respect thereof, if neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall timely perform their obligations, and the exercise of any such rights and completion of any such foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder unless, as a result thereof, the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments relating thereto shall have expired or been terminated, it being the purpose and intent that each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder be absolute, irrevocable, independent and unconditional under all circumstances.
9.05 Remedies. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Lender, on the other hand, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VII) for purposes of Section 9.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Guaranteed Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Guaranteed Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 9.01.
9.06 Guaranty of Payment; Continuing Guaranty. The guarantee in this Article IX is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, and is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.
9.07 Contribution. At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this Guaranty, the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor against each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment (a “Relevant Payment”) is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty. At any time that a Relevant Payment is made by a Subsidiary Guarantor that results in the aggregate payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment exceeding such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have a right of contribution against each other Subsidiary Guarantor who either has not made any payments or has made payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount less than such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (the aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Subsidiary Guarantors multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to adjustment at the time of each computation; provided, that no Subsidiary Guarantor may take any action to enforce such right until after all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been made) are paid in full in cash and all Commitments are terminated, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 9.07 against any other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be expressly junior and subordinate to such other Subsidiary
Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Guaranty. As used in this Section 9.07, (i) each Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor by (y) the aggregate Adjusted Net Worth of all Subsidiary Guarantors; (ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising under this Guaranty) on such date. All parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 9.07, each Subsidiary Guarantor who makes any payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of such payment until after all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been made) are paid in full in cash and all Commitments are terminated. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each Subsidiary Guarantor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Subsidiary Guarantor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Subsidiary Guarantor would remain solvent, in the determination of the Lender.
9.08 Release of a Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released from its obligations under its Guarantee and its obligations under this Agreement:
(i) upon any sale, exchange or transfer (including through merger or consolidation), to any Person that is not the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower of Capital Stock held by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Subsidiary Guarantor (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by, and would not result in a Default under, this Agreement) such that, immediately after giving effect to such transaction, such Subsidiary Guarantor would no longer constitute a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower,
(ii) in connection with the merger or consolidation of such Subsidiary Guarantor with (a) the Borrower or (b) any other Subsidiary Guarantor (provided that in the case of this clause (b) the surviving entity remains or becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor upon consummation thereof),
(iii) if the Borrower properly designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement,
(iv) upon a liquidation or dissolution or winding-up of such Subsidiary Guarantor not prohibited by this Agreement,
(v) upon the release or discharge of the Indebtedness or guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee (and any other guarantee given as a result thereof), except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee, or
(vi) upon the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Loans.
(b) In addition, the Guaranty provided by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged if such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest in favor of the Second Lien Notes, or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof, subject to, in each case, the application of the proceeds of such foreclosure or exercise of remedies in accordance with the applicable security documents.
(c) In addition, the Guaranty provided by QCP or Parent REIT shall provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged if each of QCP and Parent REIT transfers of all or substantially all of its assets to, or merger with, an entity that is not a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of QCP (to the extent such transfer does not result in a Default under this Agreement), and such transferee entity assumes such each of QCP’s and Parent REIT’s obligations under this Agreement.
(d) The Lender may execute an appropriate instrument prepared by the Borrower evidencing the release of a Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty and this Agreement upon receipt of a request by the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and an opinion of counsel certifying as to the compliance with this Section 9.08 and that all conditions precedent have been met; provided, however, that the legal counsel delivering such opinion of counsel may rely as to matters of fact on one or more Officer’s Certificates of the Borrower.
