(b) No amendment, restatement, modification, supplement, change, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, and no
consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Borrower and the Lender.
Section 9.6. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The Parties shall endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
54
Section 9.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and by each Party on separate
counterparts, each of which and any photocopies, facsimile copies and other electronic methods of transmission thereof shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Section 9.8. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made in the Facility Documents,
and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and the making of the Loans hereunder or
thereunder (and shall continue to be made in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof after) regardless of any investigation made by any such other Party or on its behalf.
Section 9.9. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in the exercise of any power,
right or privilege hereunder or under any other Facility Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power,
right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any
rights or remedies otherwise available.
Section 9.10. Indemnity.
(a) The Loan Parties shall, at all times, (1) indemnify and hold harmless (the “Indemnity”) the Lender, each of its respective Affiliates, and each of its
respective directors, partners, officers, employees, agents, counsel and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Person”) in connection with any claims or proceedings (including the reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees incurred in
defending against such claims or proceedings) arising out of, or relating to, the Facility Documents, the extension of credit under the Facility Documents or the Loans or the other Obligations, the use or intended use of the Loans or the
other Obligations, that an Indemnified Person may incur or to which an Indemnified Person may become subject (each, a “Loss”), and (2) reimburse each Indemnified Person for any legal or other fees and expenses reasonably incurred by
such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, responding to, complying with, or participating in (including as a deponent or witness), or defending against, any indemnifiable matter (collectively
“Indemnifiable Expenses”), or in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above, as such Indemnifiable Expenses are incurred. The Indemnity and reimbursement of Indemnifiable Expenses shall not be
available to any Indemnified Person to the extent that a court or arbitral tribunal of competent jurisdiction issues a final and non-appealable judgment that such Loss resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnified Person. The Indemnity and reimbursement of Indemnifiable Expenses is independent of, and in addition to, any other agreement of any Party under any other Facility Document to indemnify or any amount to the Lender, and any
exclusion of any obligation to pay any amount under this Section 9.10(a) shall not affect the requirement to pay such amount under any other section or provision hereof or under any other agreement, instrument or document. For the
avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.10 shall not apply to Taxes, other than Indemnified Taxes and any Taxes arising from any non-Tax claim.
55
(b) An Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own legal counsel with the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel and of such Indemnified Person
to be paid by the Loan Parties. The indemnification required by this Section 9.10 shall be made and paid by such Loan Parties as Losses are incurred within ten (10) Business Days of written demand by such Indemnified Person.
(c) No settlement of (or any other agreement or arrangement related to) any Loss shall be entered into by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior
written consent of the applicable Indemnified Person.
(d) No Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, assert, and each Loan Party on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby waives, any
claim, loss or amount against any Indemnified Person with respect to any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or
any of the other Facility Documents or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. No Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials
distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
Section 9.11. No Usury. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any
of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the highest rate permitted by Applicable Law. If the rate of interest (determined without regard
to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the highest lawful rate permitted by Applicable Law, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the highest lawful rate permitted by Applicable
Law until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest that would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. Accordingly, if the Lender
contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration that constitutes interest in excess of the highest lawful rate permitted by Applicable Law, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at the
Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Loan Parties.
Section 9.12. Specific Performance. The Loan Parties agree (and agree on behalf of their Subsidiaries) that irreparable
damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of the Facility Documents is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. In
light of the foregoing, the Loan Parties hereby agree that the Lender shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the Facility Documents and to enforce specifically the terms and
provisions hereof and thereof without proof of damages or otherwise and without any obligation to post a bond or other security.
56
Section 9.13. USA Patriot Act. The Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow the Lender to identify each Loan
Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.
Section 9.14. No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit
of the Loan Parties and the Lender and their successors and permitted assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement
or any of the other Facility Documents. The Lender shall not have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Facility Documents.
Section 9.15. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each of the Loan
Parties party hereto and the Lender and such executed counterparts have been delivered to the Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Section 9.16. Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. The Lender shall not be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor
of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that the Lender receives a payment from the Borrower, from any other Loan Party, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, from any enforcement
action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such
recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all rights and remedies therefor shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.
Section 9.17. Right of Setoff. The Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of
which is hereby waived by each Loan Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Facility Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. The rights under this
Section 9.17 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or any of its Affiliates may have.
