ii. the Lender determines that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance or a continuation thereof that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Advance1 ,or (B) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such Advance,

Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances.

The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower or its Affiliates, as applicable, after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

The Lender is hereby authorized to deliver a copy of this Agreement to any of its Affiliates for the purposes described in this Section 7.05(b).

If the Lender transfers or assigns any portion or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to any other financial institution, any reference to the Lender in each Loan Document shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to such other financial institution to the extent of their respective interests, as if such other financial institution had been a party to this Agreement as of the date hereof up to and including the date of such transfer or assignment.

(b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Assignor thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such Assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such Assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 (e) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon such Assignor and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; and

(v) such Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as the Lender.

(c) Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice of an assignment hereunder and any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Assignee in exchange for each surrendered Note a new Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the outstanding amount of the Note assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the Assignor has retained a portion of any Advance, a new Note payable to the Assignor in an amount equal to its portion of such Advance. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be elated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto.

(cl) The Lender may sell participations at any time, without the consent of, or notice, to the Borrower, to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or any of its Affiliates) (each a "Participant") in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advance owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) the Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal o( or interest on, the Notes or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to

the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.08, Section 7.04(c) and Section 2.11 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2. 11(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.11 (f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.08 or 2.11, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.05 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Advance[s] or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that the Lender shall not have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section Sf. 103-1 (c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(e) The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice, to the Borrowers, enter into one or more hedging, risk participation, derivative or similar transactions (howsoever described or documented) (a "Risk Transfer") related to its rights or obligations under this Agreement, any Note or any Loan Document.

(f) The Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or Risk Transfer or proposed assignment or participation or Risk Transfer pursuant to this Section 7.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or party to a Risk Transfer or proposed assignee or participant or party to a Risk Transfer, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to the Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, the Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including,

without limitation, the Advance owing to it and any Note held by it) to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System or any other central bank.

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.
