(d)
No Violation of Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be permitted to make, and the Agent and the Lenders shall not be required to receive (and for the avoidance of doubt, if the Lenders do so receive, such receipt shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), any voluntary prepayments of the Obligations (for the avoidance of doubt, including voluntary prepayments pursuant to Section 2.9(b) and also prepayments specified to be in such amounts as the Administrative Borrower may elect pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(i)(y)) that would contravene, or result in a breach of, any provision of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Section 2.10.
Payments.
(a)
Making of Payments. All payments and prepayments of principal, interest and other amounts due hereunder shall be made (unless otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders pro rata according to their respective applicable Percentages. All payments to the Administrative Agent shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its office in Miami, Florida, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on the date due, in Dollars in immediately available funds, and funds received after that hour shall be deemed, for purposes of determining timeliness of payments and for all purposes of computation of interest, to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the >next following Business Day. Any payment or prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by accrued unpaid interest on such amount of principal paid or prepaid through the date of payment or prepayment, and, if applicable, additional compensation calculated in accordance with Section 2.13, and any Early Payment Fee payable pursuant to Section 2.10(g). The Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender in immediately available funds its share of all such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on the Business Day next succeeding the Business Day such payments are received by the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent fails to remit any payment to any Lender when required hereby, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on demand to that Lender for each day during the period commencing on the date such remittance was
45
due until the date such remittance is made at an annual rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such day. All payments under Section 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13 shall be made by the Borrowers directly to each Lender entitled thereto.
(b)
Effect of Payments. Each payment by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be deemed to constitute payment by the Borrowers directly to such Lender, provided, however, that in the event any such payment by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent is required to be returned to the Borrowers for any reason whatsoever, then the Borrowers’ obligation to such Lender with respect to such payment shall be deemed to be automatically reinstated.
(c)
Distributions by Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or a Borrower prior to the date on which such Lender or Borrower are scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Term Loan to be made by it hereunder or (in the case of a Borrower) a payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (such payment by a Lender or Borrower (as the case may be) being herein called a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that it does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date and, if such Lender or Borrower (as the case may be) has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon for each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate (i) equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such day, in the case of a Required Payment owing by a Lender, or (ii) equal to the applicable rate of interest as provided in this Agreement for the Term Loans (calculated daily and not in respect of any Interest Period), in the case of a Required Payment owing by a Borrower.
(d)
Setoff. Each Borrower agrees that each Lender, subject to such Lender’s sharing obligations set forth in Section 8.6, shall have all rights of setoff and bankers’ lien provided by Applicable Law, and in addition thereto, each Borrower agrees that if at any time any Obligation is due and owing by such Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to any Lender at a time when an Event of Default has occurred hereunder, any Lender may apply any and all balances, credits, and deposits, accounts or moneys of such Borrower then or thereafter in the possession of such Lender (excluding, however, any trust or escrow accounts held by such Borrower for the benefit of any third party) to the payment thereof.
(e)
Due Date Extension. If any payment of principal of or interest on any Term Loan or any fees payable hereunder falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next following Business Day, and (in the case
46
of principal) additional interest shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.
(f)
Apportionment and Application of Payments.
(i)
So long as no Application Event has occurred, and except as otherwise expressly specified herein, all principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and all payments of fees and expenses (other than fees or expenses that are for the Agent’s separate account) shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders to which a particular fee or expense relates. All payments to be made hereunder by the Borrowers shall (subject to the last sentence of Section 2.10(a) hereof) be remitted to the Administrative Agent and all (subject to Section 2.10(f)(iii) hereof) such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent, shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred, to reduce the balance of the Term Loans and other Obligations outstanding and, thereafter, to the Administrative Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under Applicable Law.
(ii)
At any time that an Application Event has occurred, all payments remitted to the Administrative Agent and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent shall be applied as follows:
(A)
first, to pay any Agent Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to the Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in full;
(B)
second, to pay any fees or premiums then due to the Agent under the Loan Documents until paid in full;
(C)
third, to pay interest due in respect of all Protective Advances, pro rata, until paid in full;
(D)

(F)
sixth, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Term Loans then outstanding until paid in full;
(G)
seventh, ratably to pay the principal of all Term Loans then outstanding until paid in full;
(H)
eighth, ratably to pay any other Obligations; and
47
(I)
ninth, to the Administrative Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under Applicable Law.
(iii)
In each instance, so long as no Application Event has occurred, Section 2.10(f)(i) shall not apply to any payment made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and specified by the Administrative Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this Agreement.
(iv)
For purposes of Section 2.10(f)(ii), “paid in full” means payment in cash in Dollars of all amounts owing under the Loan Documents according to the terms thereof, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, Early Payment Fees and expense reimbursements, whether or not any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding.
(v)
In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.10(f) and any other provision contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.10(f) shall control and govern.
(g)
Early Payment Fee. Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.9(a), each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.9(b), and each repayment of, or distribution in respect of, Term Loans after acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 7.2 or such amount otherwise becoming or being declared immediately due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof (each such prepayment, repayment, distribution, amount becoming or being declared immediately due and payable, an “Early Payment Fee Event”), in each case shall be accompanied by, and there shall become due and payable automatically upon any such Early Payment Fee Event, a fee (the “Early Payment Fee”) payable in cash on the principal amount so prepaid or on the principal amount that has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 7.2 or otherwise, or in respect of which such claim in any Insolvency Proceeding has arisen, or otherwise constituting Called Principal, as applicable, in an amount equal to (x) in the case of a prepayment during the Limited Call Period (other than from the Net Cash Proceeds of a Permitted Divestiture (other than of the Designated Divestiture Business Unit) consummated prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date), or an amount of Term Loans becoming due and payable pursuant to Section 7.2 or otherwise, in each such case during the Limited Call Period, the Make Whole Amount, and (y) in the case of a prepayment of the Term Loans from the Net Cash Proceeds of a Permitted Divestiture (other than of the Designated Divestiture Business Unit) consummated prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 10.0% of the amount of such prepayment, and (z) in the case of a prepayment after the Limited Call Period or an amount of Term Loans becoming due and payable pursuant to Section 7.2 or otherwise, in each such case after the Limited Call Period, the Applicable Term Loan Percentage.
48
(h)
Closing Fee. On the Closing Date the Administrative Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender a fee (the “Closing Fee”) in the amount of $800,000. The Closing Fee shall be due and payable on the Closing Date and not refundable under any circumstances.
(i)
Leasehold Mortgage Failure Fee. On the ninetieth (90th) day following the date hereof, the Administrative Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender a fee (the “Leasehold Mortgage Failure Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of (x) $100,000 and (y) the number of locations listed as Leased Real Property of the Obligors, listed on Schedule 5.16(d) and marked with an asterisk (comprising, for the avoidance of doubt, six locations), for which the Borrowers shall have failed to satisfy by such date, in each case to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction, all of the requirements described in Section 5.16(d) for such location, including the obtaining of Mortgages substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M (together with such amendments to the underlying leases as contemplated in such form) and in all events satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the delivery of estoppel letters and other confirmations from the lessors with respect thereto, and the satisfaction with respect to each such Mortgage of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.1(a)(ii)(I), (II), (VI), (VII), (VIII), (IX) and (X), mutatis mutandis.
Section 2.11.
Taxes. All payments made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party (herein any “Payee”) under or in connection with this Agreement or the Term Notes shall be made without any setoff or other counterclaim, and shall be free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future Taxes now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or other authority, except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is compelled by law. As used herein, the term “Taxes” shall include all income, excise and other taxes of whatever nature (other than taxes generally assessed on the overall net income of a Payee by any Governmental Authority of the country, state or political subdivision in which such Payee is incorporated or in which the office through which such Payee is acting is located) as well as all levies, imposts, duties, charges, or fees of whatever nature. If a Borrower is compelled by law to make any deductions or withholdings on account of any Taxes (including any foreign withholding), such Borrower will:
(a)
pay such additional amounts (including, without limitation, any penalties, interest or expenses) as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by the Payee after such deductions or withholdings (including any required deduction or withholding on such additional amounts) shall equal the amount the Payee would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made; and
(b)
pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted (including with respect to such additional amounts); and
(c)
promptly forward to the Administrative Agent (for delivery to the appropriate Payee) an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such authorities.
49
If any Taxes otherwise payable by a Borrower pursuant to the foregoing are directly asserted against a Payee, such Payee may pay such taxes and such Borrower promptly shall reimburse such Payee to the full extent otherwise required under this Section 2.11.
Section 2.12.
Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Funding Exceptions.
(a)
Increased Costs on LIBOR Rate. If Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or after the date of this Agreement the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any existing law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall:
(i)
subject a Lender to or cause the withdrawal or termination of any exemption previously granted to a Lender with respect to, any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Term Loans or its obligation to make Term Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to a Lender of the principal of or interest under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans or its obligation to make Term Loans (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of a Lender imposed by the jurisdictions in which such Lender’s principal executive office is located or in which such Lender is organized), or
(ii)
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of interest rates pursuant to Section 2.4), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, a Lender; or
(iii)
impose on a Lender any other condition affecting its making, maintaining or funding of its Term Loans or its obligation to make Term Loans;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to an affected Lender of making or maintaining any Term Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under its Term Note with respect to a Term Loan, then the affected Lender will notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such increased cost and within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis of such demand) and the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such increased cost or such reduction. Each Lender will notify the Administrative Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12. The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 2.12(a) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
(b)
Capital Adequacy. If a Lender determines at any time that such Lender’s Return has been reduced as a result of any Capital Adequacy Rule Change, such Lender may require the Borrowers to pay to such Lender the amount necessary to
50
restore such Lender’s Return to what it would have been had there been no Capital Adequacy Rule Change. For purposes of this Section 2.12(b), the following definitions shall apply:
(i)
“Return”, for any fiscal quarter or shorter period, means the percentage determined by dividing (A) the sum of interest and ongoing fees earned by a Lender under this Agreement during such period by (B) the average capital such Lender is required to maintain during such period as a result of its being a party to this Agreement, as determined by such Lender based upon its total capital requirements and a reasonable attribution formula that takes account of the Capital Adequacy Rules then in effect. Return may be calculated for a Lender for each fiscal quarter and for the shorter period between the end of a fiscal quarter and the date of termination in whole of this Agreement.
(ii)
“Capital Adequacy Rule” means any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy that applies to a Lender, or the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority. Capital Adequacy Rules include rules requiring financial institutions to maintain total capital in amounts based upon percentages of outstanding loans, binding loan commitments and letters of credit.
(iii)
“Capital Adequacy Rule Change” means any change in any Capital Adequacy Rule occurring after the date of this Agreement, but does not include any changes in applicable requirements that at the date hereof are scheduled to take place under the existing Capital Adequacy Rules or any increases in the capital that a Lender is required to maintain to the extent that the increases are required due to a regulatory authority’s assessment of such Lender’s financial condition.
The initial notice sent by a Lender shall be sent after such Lender learns that its Return has been reduced, shall include a demand for payment of the amount necessary to restore such Lender’s Return through and including the quarter in which the notice is sent, and shall state in reasonable detail the cause for the reduction in such Lender’s Return and such Lender’s calculation of the amount of such reduction. Thereafter, a Lender may send a new notice during each fiscal quarter setting forth the calculation of the reduced Return for that quarter and including a demand for payment of the amount necessary to restore such Lender’s Return for that quarter. A Lender’s calculation in any such notice shall be conclusive and binding absent demonstrable error.
(c)
Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If with respect to any Interest Period:
(i)
the Administrative Agent determines, or the Required Lenders determine and advise the Administrative Agent (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on all parties), that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered in the London interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period; or
(ii)
the Administrative Agent otherwise determines, or the Required Lenders determine and advise the Administrative Agent (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on all parties), that by reason of circumstances affecting the London
51
interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate; or
(iii)
the Administrative Agent otherwise determines, or the Required Lenders determine and advise the Administrative Agent (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on all parties), that the LIBOR Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of maintaining or funding a Term Loan for such Interest Period, or that the making or funding of Term Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lenders materially affects such Term Loans;
then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the affected parties and the Administrative Borrower shall enter into good faith negotiations with each affected Lender in order to determine an alternate method to determine the LIBOR Rate for such Lender.
(d)
Illegality. In the event that any change in (including the adoption of any new) Applicable Laws, or any change in the interpretation of Applicable Laws by any Governmental Authority, including any central bank or comparable agency or any other regulatory body, charged with the interpretation, implementation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, including any central bank or comparable agency or other regulatory body, should make it unlawful or, in the good faith judgment of the affected Lender, shall raise a substantial question as to whether it is unlawful, for such Lender to make, maintain or fund Term Loans, then (i) the affected Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (ii) the obligation of the affected Lender to make Term Loans shall, upon the effectiveness of such event, be suspended for the duration of such unlawfulness, and (iii) the Borrowers shall prepay all applicable Term Loans of such Lender, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid.
(e)
Procedures to Mitigate. If circumstances arise in respect of any Lender which would, or would upon the giving of notice, result in any liability of the Borrowers under Section 2.11 or this Section 2.12 then, without in any way limiting, reducing or otherwise qualifying the Borrowers’ obligations under Section 2.11 or this Section 2.12, such Lender shall promptly, upon becoming aware of the same, notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower thereof and shall, in consultation with the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower and to the extent that it can do so without, in its reasonable judgment, disadvantaging itself, take such reasonable steps as may be available to it to mitigate the effects of such circumstances (including, without limitation, the designation of an alternate office or the transfer of its Term Loans to another office). If and so long as a Lender has been unable to take, or has not taken, steps reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
52
Borrower and the Administrative Agent to mitigate the effect of the circumstances in question, such Lender shall be obliged, at the request of the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to assign all its rights and obligations hereunder to another Person designated by the Administrative Agent, or the Administrative Borrower with the approval of the Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and willing to enter this Agreement in place of such Lender; provided that such Person satisfies all of the requirements of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, providing the forms and documents required by Section 8.12 and any such Person shall cover all costs incurred in connection with effecting such replacement.
Section 2.13.
Funding Losses. Each Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the calculations of the amount being claimed) such Borrower will indemnify such Lender against any loss or expense which such Lender may have sustained or incurred (including, without limitation, any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain Term Loans) or which such Lender may be deemed to have sustained or incurred, as reasonably determined by such Lender, (i) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrowers to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with any Term Loans, or (ii) due to any failure of the Borrowers to borrow on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing. For this purpose, all notices under Section 2.2 shall be deemed to be irrevocable.
Section 2.14.
Right of Lenders to Fund through Other Offices. Each Lender, if it so elects, may fulfill its agreements hereunder with respect to any Term Loan by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Term Loan; provided, that in such event the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Term Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and such Term Loan shall be deemed held by such Lender for the account of such branch or Affiliate.
Section 2.15.
Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain all or any part of its Term Loans in any manner it deems fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement (specifically including, without limitation, Section 2.13 hereof) all determinations hereunder shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Term Loan during each Interest Period for such Term Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the appropriate LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.
Section 2.16.
Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions. Determinations and statements of a Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.12, or 2.13 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Each Lender may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation pursuant to such Sections 2.11, 2.12, or 2.13 and the provisions of Sections 2.11, 2.12, and 2.13 and the obligations of the Borrowers thereunder shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Section 2.17.

The Administrative Agent hereby is authorized by each Borrower and the Lenders (but is not obligated to), from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, (i) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (ii) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article III are not satisfied, to make advances to the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders that the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (A) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations, or (C) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including Agent Expenses (any of the advances described in this Section 2.17(a) shall be referred to as “Protective Advances”), which Protective Advances shall bear interest at all times at the same rate as would be applicable during the continuation of an Event of Default to the Term Loans, whether or not an Event of Default then exists.
(b)
All payments on the Protective Advances shall be payable to the Administrative Agent solely for its own account. The principal of and accrued unpaid interest on the Protective Advances shall be payable on demand from time to time, and shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens, not be subject to the pro rata payment provisions of this Agreement, and constitute Obligations hereunder. The provisions of this Section 2.17 are for the exclusive benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and are not intended to benefit the Obligors in any way, and in no event shall a Borrower or any other Obligor be deemed a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.
Section 2.18.
Maximum Interest. 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 any Secured Party shall receive interest hereunder in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Administrative Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by a Secured Party 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.
Section 2.19.
Defaulting Lenders. The failure of any Lender to fund a Term Loan or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder (any Lender who fails to fund a Term Loan or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder, a “Defaulting Lender”) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower or other Group Member) that, solely for purposes of determining a Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters relating to the Loan Documents and to share in payments, fees and Collateral proceeds thereunder, a Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a "Lender" until all its defaulted obligations have been cured.

(b)
by notice to the Administrative Borrower, declare all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other Obligations (including the Early Payment Fee) to be forthwith immediately due and payable or otherwise accelerated, whereupon the Term Loans, all such accrued interest and all such other Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Obligor;
(c)
without notice to any Obligor and without further action, apply any and all monies owing by any Secured Party to any Group Member to the payment of the

Term Loans, including interest accrued thereon, or to payment of any or all other Obligations then owing by the Obligors;

Such rights and remedies include the rights (subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, where applicable) to (i) take possession of any Collateral; (ii) require the Obligors to assemble Collateral, at the Obligors’ expense, and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place designated by the Collateral Agent; (iii) enter any premises where Collateral is located and store Collateral on such premises until sold (and if the premises are owned or leased by an Obligor, such Obligor agrees not to charge for such storage); and (iv) Dispose of any Collateral in its then condition, or after any further manufacturing or processing thereof, at public or private sale, with such notice as may be required by Applicable Law, in lots or in bulk, and at such locations, all as the Collateral Agent, in its discretion, deems advisable. Each Obligor agrees that 10 days’ notice of any proposed Disposition of Collateral by the Collateral Agent shall be reasonable. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Obligor's premises, without charge, and such sales may be adjourned from time to time in accordance with Applicable Law. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to Dispose of any Collateral for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and the Collateral Agent may purchase any Collateral at public or, if permitted by law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may “credit bid” or otherwise set off the amount of such price against the Obligations.
Each Obligor hereby agrees that: (a) so long as the Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, the Agent, the Lenders, and the other Secured Parties shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by the Obligors.

At any time during an Event of Default, the Agent, the Lenders, the other Secured Parties and any of their Affiliates are authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off 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 Agent, such Lender, such other Secured Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of an Obligor against any Obligations, irrespective of whether or not the Agent, such Lender, such other Secured Party or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Agent, such Lender, such other Secured Party or such Affiliate different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligation. The rights of the Agent, each Lender, each such other Secured Party and each such Affiliate under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Person may have.
Additionally, the Administrative Borrower agrees that, at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and upon written request delivered by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Borrower shall appoint a qualified financial advisor and management consultant reasonably experienced in providing financial reporting, assessments and advice to companies of comparable or larger size than the Administrative Borrower operating under circumstances of credit restructuring, workouts, or credit facility default (hereinafter referred to as the “Consultant”), for the purposes of reviewing and providing management advice and direction the operations of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries from time to time thereafter. The terms of the Consultant’s scope of duties, including appropriate covenants regarding confidentiality, shall be settled by the Administrative Borrower in consultation with and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, provided that such terms may be settled by the Administrative Agent if agreement with the Administrative Borrower is not reached within five (5) days of the date of the Administrative Agent’s request hereunder. Each of the Administrative Borrower and the other Obligors irrevocably authorizes, and shall cause, any such Consultant to regularly consult with, and respond to the inquiries of, the Administrative Agent and its employees, agents, representatives, advisors, consultants and financing sources (including, but not limited to, any investment banker, financial advisor, accountant, legal counsel, agent, representative or expert retained by or acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent) (collectively, the “Representatives”) concerning any and all matters relating to the affairs, finances and businesses of any Group Member, the assets and capital stock of any Group Member and/or Consultant’s activities related thereto (including, without limitation, communications outside the presence of any representatives of the Group Members), and provide the Administrative Agent and its Representatives copies of all reports, analyses, materials (including, without limitation, any and all confidential memoranda or other work product provided by Consultant to any or all of the Group Members and their respective representatives).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(e)(ii) hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans and Term Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other Obligations payable under this Agreement, shall be immediately due and payable, all Term Commitments, if then in effect, shall be terminated in full, in each case automatically and without presentment, demand, protest, notice or other requirement of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Obligor.

ARTICLE VIII
AGREEMENT AMONG LENDERS AND AGENT
Section 8.1.
Authorization; Powers. (a) Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as administrative agent, and the Collateral Agent to act as collateral agent, for and on behalf of such Lender to the extent provided herein, in any Loan Documents (including by way of acting as “Secured Party” under any Loan Document relating to Collateral) or in any other document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, and to take such other actions as may be reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as administrative agent for each Lender, and the Collateral Agent agrees to act as collateral agent for each Lender, upon the express conditions contained in this Article VIII, but in no event shall the Agent constitute a fiduciary of any Lender, nor shall the Agent have any fiduciary responsibilities in respect of any Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, each Lender irrevocably (a) authorizes the Agent to execute and deliver and perform those obligations under each of the Loan Documents to which the Agent is a party as are specifically delegated to the Agent, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies as may be specifically delegated hereunder or thereunder, together with such additional powers as may be reasonably incidental thereto, (b) appoints the Agent as nominal beneficiary or nominal secured party, as the case may be, under the Loan Documents and all related UCC financing statements (to the extent of the collateral security granted with respect to the Obligations), and (c) authorizes the Agent to act as agent of and for such Lender for purposes of holding, perfecting and Disposing of Collateral under the Loan Documents. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or, if so required pursuant to Section 10.2, upon the instructions of all Lenders; provided, however, that except for action expressly required of the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, and the Agent shall not in any event be required to take any action which is contrary to the Loan Documents or Applicable Law.
(b) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent to release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Term Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrowers of all of the Obligations, (ii) constituting property being Disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if Administrative Borrower certifies to Agent that the Disposition is permitted under Section 6.5 (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property in which School Specialty or its Subsidiaries owned no interest at the time Agent's Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, or (iv) constituting property leased to School Specialty or its Subsidiaries under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. The Obligors and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (a) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of
104
the Bankruptcy Code, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any Disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (c) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (i) the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at such Disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase), and (ii) Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by such acquisition vehicle or vehicles and in connection therewith Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Lenders (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration. Except as provided above, Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all of the Collateral, all of the Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders. Upon request by Agent or Administrative Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent's authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.1(b); provided, that (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Obligor in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including, the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. The Lenders further hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property if such Permitted Lien secures Permitted PMM/Capital Lease Debt.
(c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by School Specialty or its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Agent's Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain, reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan
105
Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent's own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.
Section 8.2.
Application of Proceeds. The Agent, after deduction of any costs of collection, as provided in Section 8.5, shall remit to each Lender (to the extent a Lender is to share therein and subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(f)) that Lender’s pro rata share of all payments of principal, interest, premiums and fees payable hereunder in accordance with such Lender’s appropriate Percentage. Each Lender’s interest under the Loan Documents shall be payable solely from payments, collections and proceeds actually received by the Agent under the Loan Documents; and the Agent’s only liability to a Lender with respect to any such payments, collections and proceeds shall be to account for such Lender’s Percentage of such payments, collections and proceeds in accordance with this Agreement. If the Agent is required for any reason to refund any such payments, collections or proceeds, each Lender will refund to the Agent, upon demand, its Percentage of such payments, collections or proceeds, together with its Percentage, or share, as applicable, of interest or penalties, if any, payable by the Agent in connection with such refund. If any Lender has wrongfully refused to fund its Percentage of any Term Loans, or if the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans made by any Lender is for any other reason less than its respective Percentage of the aggregate principal balance of all Term Loans, the Agent may remit payments received by it to the other Lenders until such payments have reduced the aggregate amounts owed by the Borrowers to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Term Loans owing to such Lender hereunder are equal to its Percentage of the aggregate amounts of the Term Loans owing to all of the Lenders hereunder. The foregoing provision is intended only to set forth certain rules for the application of payments, proceeds and collections in the event that a Lender has breached its obligations hereunder and shall not be deemed to excuse any Lender from such obligations.
Section 8.3.
Exculpation. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters, the advice of independent public accountants with respect to accounting matters and advice of other experts as to any other matters and upon any Loan Document and any schedule, certificate, statement, report, notice or other writing which it reasonably believes to be genuine or to have been presented by a proper Person. Neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be responsible or in any way liable with respect to or for (a) any recitals, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, legality, validity, genuineness, sufficiency, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Document, or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (b) the validity, genuineness, perfection, priority, effectiveness, enforceability, existence, value or enforcement of any Collateral, or (c) except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, any action taken or omitted by it. The designation of Bayside (or any successor thereto as Agent) as Agent hereunder shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, Bayside (or such successor thereto) in its individual capacity as Lender hereunder.
106
Section 8.4.
Use of the Term “Agent”. The term “Agent” is used herein in reference to the Agent merely as a matter of custom. It is intended to reflect only an administrative relationship between the Agent and the Lenders, in each case as independent contracting parties. However, the obligations of the Agent shall be limited to those expressly set forth herein and in no event shall the use of such term create or imply any fiduciary relationship or any other obligation arising under the general law of agency.
Section 8.5.
Reimbursement for Costs and Expenses. All payments, collections and proceeds received or effected by the Agent may be applied first to pay or reimburse the Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses at any time incurred by or imposed upon the Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including but not limited to all reasonable attorney’s fees), foreclosure or liquidation expenses and advances made to protect the security of any collateral (to the extent of the collateral security is granted with respect to the Obligations). If the Agent does not receive payments, collections or proceeds sufficient to cover any such costs and expenses within five (5) days after their incurrence or imposition, each Lender shall, upon demand, remit to the Agent such Lender’s Percentage of the difference between (i) such costs and expenses and (ii) such payments, collections and proceeds, together with interest on such amount for each day following the thirtieth day after demand therefor until so remitted at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each such day.
Section 8.6.
Payments Received Directly by Lenders. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise) on account of any Term Loan or on account of any interest, premium or fees under this Agreement (other than through distributions made in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof) in excess of such Lender’s applicable Percentage with respect to the Term Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice of such fact to the Agent and shall promptly remit to the Agent such amount as shall be necessary to cause the remitting Lender to share such excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Percentages, together with interest for each day on such amount until so remitted at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each such day; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such remitting Lender or holder, the remittance shall be restored to the extent of such recovery.
Section 8.7.
Indemnification. Each Lender severally, but not jointly, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent, as well as the Agent’s agents, employees; officers and directors, ratably according to their respective Percentages from and against any and all losses, liabilities (including liabilities for penalties), actions, suits, judgment, demands, damages, costs, disbursements, or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, and costs of in-house counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever, which are imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent or its agents, employees, officers or directors in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, or as a result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of any such losses, liabilities (including liabilities for penalties), actions, suits, judgments, demands, damages, costs disbursements, or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent.
107
Section 8.8.
Agent and Affiliates. Bayside (and any successor thereto as Agent) shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Agent, and Bayside (or such successor) and its affiliates may accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Group Members or their Affiliates as fully as if Bayside (or such successor) were not the Agent hereunder.
Section 8.9.
Credit Investigation. Each Lender acknowledges that it has made such inquiries and taken such care on its own behalf as would have been the case had its Term Loans made directly by such Lender to the Borrowers without the intervention of the Agent or any other Lender. Each Lender agrees and acknowledges that the Agent and each other Lender makes no representations or warranties about the creditworthiness of the Obligors or any other party to this Agreement or with respect to or for (a) any recitals, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, legality, validity, genuineness, sufficiency, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Document, or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (b) the validity, genuineness, perfection, priority, effectiveness, enforceability, existence, value or enforcement of any Collateral.
Section 8.10.
Defaults. The Agent shall have no duty to inquire into any performance or failure to perform by the Group Members and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default (other than under Sections 7.1(a) or 7.1(b)) hereof unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower specifying the occurrence of such Default or Event of Default. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. In the event of any Default, the Agent shall (subject to Section 8.7 hereof) (a) in the case of a Default that constitutes an Event of Default, not take any of the actions referred to in Section 7.2(b) hereof unless so directed by the Required Lenders, and (b) in the case of any Default or Event of Default, take such actions with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may take any action, or refrain from taking any action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders.
Section 8.11.
Obligations Several. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are the several obligations of such Lender, and neither any Lender nor the Agent shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Lender hereunder, nor will the failure by the Agent or any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder relieve the Agent or any other Lender from the performance of its respective obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Lender or the Agent pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Documents shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders, together or with or without the Agent, as a partnership, association, joint venture, or other entity.
Section 8.12.
Sale or Assignment; Addition of Lenders. Except as permitted under the terms and conditions of this Section 8.12, no Lender may sell, assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement or such Lender’s Term Note or Term Loans or Term Commitment.

if requested by the Administrative Agent, each Borrower will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for delivery by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Assignment Certificate, (i) a new Term Note, payable to the order of the Applicant in the amount corresponding to the applicable Term Loan acquired by such Applicant and (ii) a new Term Note payable to the order of the assigning Lender in the amount corresponding to the retained Term Loan. Such new Term Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Term Notes to be replaced by such new Term Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such assignment and shall otherwise be in the form of the Term Note to be replaced thereby. Such new Term Notes shall be issued in substitution for, but not in satisfaction or payment of, the Term Note being replaced thereby and such new Term Notes shall be treated as Term Note) for all purposes of this Agreement; and
(E)
the assigning Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee of $3,500.
(iii)
Any assignment or purported assignment to any Person that is not an Eligible Assignee shall be null and void. Upon the execution and delivery of such Assignment Certificate and such new Term Notes, and effective as of the effective date thereof (A) this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such additional Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Percentages arising therefrom, (B) the assigning Lender shall be relieved of all obligations hereunder to the extent of the reduction of the assigning Lender’s Percentage, and (C) the Applicant shall become a party hereto and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded to a Lender herein and in each other Loan Document or other document or instrument executed pursuant hereto and subject to all obligations of a Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to approve or disapprove actions which, in accordance with the terms hereof, require the approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders. In order to facilitate the addition of additional Lenders hereto, the Administrative Borrower (subject to its approval rights hereunder, if any) and the Lenders shall cooperate fully with the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Administrative Agent relating thereto, including, without limitation, the furnishing of such written materials and financial information regarding the Group Members as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, the execution of such documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request with respect thereto, and the participation by officers of the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders at reasonable times and places in a meeting or teleconference call with any Applicant upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent.

110
Note and Term Loans, to any domestic or foreign commercial bank (having a branch office in the United States), insurance company, financial institution or an Affiliate of such Lender pursuant to documentation delivered to and deemed acceptable to the Administrative Agent. No holder of any such participation shall be entitled to require any Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder, except that a Lender selling a participation may agree with the participant that such Lender will not, without such participant’s consent, take any action which would, in the case of any principal, interest, premium or fee in which the participant has an ownership or beneficial interest: (a) extend the final maturity of any Term Loans or extend the Scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date, (b) reduce the interest rate on the Term Loans or the amount of any premium or fee payable in respect of the Term Loans, (c) forgive any principal of, or interest on, the Term Loans, or any premium or fees payable in respect thereof, or (d) release all or substantially all of any Collateral for the Term Loans. The Lenders shall not, as among the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders, be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder as a result of any such granting of a participation. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that any holder of a participation described in this Section 8.13 may rely upon, and possess all rights under, any opinions, certificates, or other instruments or documents delivered under or in connection with any Loan Document. Except as set forth in this Section 8.13, no Lender may grant any participation in its Term Note or Term Loans.

Withholding Tax Exemption. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or premium or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Term Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender that so delivers a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI further undertakes to deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent two additional copies of such form (or a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Term Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders all such forms inapplicable or that would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

Obligor not a Beneficiary or Party.

Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent May Delegate Duties. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may appoint sub-agents to exercise on their behalf any of their respective duties, obligations or rights under the Loan Documents, and each such sub-agent shall have all of the rights and benefits of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Article VIII.

Collateral Matters.
(a)
The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Term Commitments, and payment and satisfaction in full in cash by the Borrowers of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property being Disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if the Administrative Borrower certifies to the Collateral Agent that the Disposition is permitted under Section 6.5 of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property in which no Group Member owned any interest at the time the Agent’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, or (iv) constituting property leased to a Group Member under a Lease or other lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, the Collateral Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all of the Collateral, all of the Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.18; provided, however, that (1) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Obligor in respect of) all property and other interests retained by the Obligors, including, the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.
112
(b)
The Agent and its Affiliates and Agent Firm and other representatives shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Group Members or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
Section 8.19.
Agency for Perfection.

Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.
Section 8.20.
Field Audits and Examinations; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:
(a)
is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each completed field audit or examination report respecting the Group Members (each a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”) prepared by or at the request of the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,
(b)
expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,
(c)

(d)
agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding the Group Members and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 10.12, and
113
(e)
without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report, harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys fees and costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.
Section 8.21.
Successor Agent. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may voluntarily resign as administrative agent or collateral agent, as applicable, at any time by giving ten Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the other Agent, the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. If no successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders or from among those financial institutions who regularly provide such services in the New York financial markets. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Agent all sums, securities and other items of collateral (if any) held by it under the Loan Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Agent under the Loan Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Agent such documents, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Agent of the rights and benefits under the Loan Documents, whereupon such retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent hereunder.
ARTICLE IX
GUARANTY
Section 9.1.
Guaranty.
(a)
Each Guarantor, and each Borrower (with respect to each other Borrower), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the full and prompt payment when due of the Obligations, including, without limitation, any interest thereon (including, without limitation, interest, premiums and fees, as provided in this Agreement, accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any Insolvency
114
Proceeding, whether or not such interest, premium or fees accrue or are recoverable against the Borrowers after the filing of such petition for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code or are an allowed claim in such proceeding), plus documented, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses if the obligations represented by this Guaranty are collected by law, through an attorney-at-law, or under advice therefrom.
(b)
Regardless of whether any proposed guarantor or any other Person shall become in any other way responsible to the Secured Parties, or any of them, for or in respect of the Obligations or any part thereof, and regardless of whether or not any Person now or hereafter responsible to the Secured Parties, or any of them, for the Obligations or any part thereof, whether under this Guaranty or otherwise, shall cease to be so liable, each Guarantor and each Borrower hereby declares and agrees that this Guaranty shall be a joint and several obligation, shall be a continuing guaranty and shall be operative and binding until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all Term Commitments shall have been terminated.
(c)
Each Guarantor and each Borrower absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably waives any and all right to assert any defense (other than the defense of payment in cash in full, or performance, to the extent of its obligations hereunder, or a defense that such Guarantor’s or such Borrower’s liability is limited as provided in Section 9.3), set-off, counterclaim or cross-claim of any nature whatsoever with respect to this Guaranty or the obligations of the Guarantors or the Borrowers under this Guaranty or the obligations of any other Person or party (including, without limitation, the Borrowers) relating to this Guaranty or the obligations of any of the Guarantors and the Borrowers under this Guaranty or otherwise with respect to the Obligations in any action or proceeding brought by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to collect the Obligations or any portion thereof, or to enforce the obligations of any of the Guarantors or the Borrowers under this Guaranty or to foreclose on any Collateral owned by any Obligor.
(d)
The Secured Parties, or any of them, may from time to time, without exonerating or releasing any Guarantor or any Borrower in any way under this Agreement, including this Guaranty, (i) take such further or other security or securities for the Obligations or any part thereof as they may deem proper, or (ii) release, discharge, abandon or otherwise deal with or fail to deal with any Guarantor or guarantor or Borrower of the Obligations or any security or securities therefor or any part thereof now or hereafter held by the Secured Parties, or any of them, or (iii) amend, modify, extend, accelerate or waive in any manner any of the provisions, terms, or conditions of the Loan Documents, all as they may consider expedient or appropriate in their sole discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of Section 9.1(e), it is understood that the Secured Parties, or any of them, may, without exonerating or releasing any Guarantor or Borrower, give up, modify or abstain from perfecting or taking advantage of any security for or guarantee of the Obligations and accept or make any compositions or arrangements, and realize upon any security for or guarantee of the Obligations when, and in such manner, and with or without notice, all as such Person may deem expedient.
(e)
Each Guarantor and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no change in the nature or terms of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents, or other agreements, instruments or contracts evidencing, related to or attendant with the Obligations (including any novation), shall discharge all or any part of the liabilities and obligations of such
115
Guarantor or Borrower pursuant to this Guaranty; it being the purpose and intent of the Guarantors, the Borrowers and the Secured Parties that the covenants, agreements and all liabilities and obligations of each Guarantor and of each Borrower hereunder are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor and each Borrower agrees that until each and every one of the covenants and agreements of this Guaranty is fully performed, and without possibility of recourse, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Guarantor’s or such Borrower’s undertakings hereunder shall not be released, in whole or in part, by any action or thing which might, but for this paragraph of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor, or by reason of any waiver, omission of the Secured Parties, or any of them, or their failure to proceed promptly or otherwise, or by reason of any action taken or omitted by the Secured Parties, or any of them, whether or not such action or failure to act varies or increases the risk of, or affects the rights or remedies of, such Guarantor or such Borrower, or by reason of any further dealings between the Borrowers or Guarantors, on the one hand, and any Secured Party, on the other hand, or any other guarantor or surety, and such Guarantor or such Borrower hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to its liability hereunder, or any right of counterclaim or offset of any nature or description which it may have or may exist based upon, and shall be deemed to have consented to, any of the foregoing acts, omissions, things, agreements or waivers.
(f)
The Secured Parties, or any of them, may, without demand or notice of any kind upon or to any Guarantor or Borrower, at any time or from time to time when any amount shall be due and payable hereunder by any Guarantor or Borrower following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Borrowers shall not have timely paid any of the Obligations, set-off and appropriate and apply to any portion of the Obligations hereby guaranteed, and in such order of application as the Administrative Agent may from time to time elect in accordance with this Agreement, any deposits, property, balances, credit accounts or moneys of any Guarantor or any Borrower in the possession of any Secured Party or under their respective control for any purpose. If and to the extent that any Guarantor or Borrower makes any payment to the Administrative Agent or any other Person pursuant to or in respect of this Guaranty, any claim, by subrogation, contribution or otherwise, which such Guarantor or Borrower may have against any Borrower or other Guarantor by reason thereof shall be subject and subordinate to the prior payment in full of the Obligations to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent.
(g)
Upon the bankruptcy or winding up or other distribution of assets of any Borrower, or of any surety or guarantor (other than the applicable Guarantor or other Borrower) for any Obligations of the Borrowers to the Secured Parties, or any of them, the rights of the Administrative Agent against any Guarantor or Borrower shall not be affected or impaired by the omission of any Secured Party to prove its claim, or to prove the full claim, as appropriate, against any Borrower, or any other Borrower or any such other guarantor or surety, and the Administrative Agent may prove such claims as it sees fit and may refrain from proving any claim and in its discretion may value as it sees fit or refrain from valuing any Collateral or other security held by it without in any way releasing, reducing or otherwise affecting the liability to the Secured Parties of each of the Guarantors and each of the Borrowers.
116
(h)
Each Guarantor and each Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably expressly waives, except to the extent such waiver would be expressly prohibited by Applicable Law, the following: (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, (ii) notice of the existence or creation of all or any of the Obligations, (iii) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and all other notices whatsoever (other than notices expressly required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which any Guarantor is a party), (iv) all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the Obligations or any part thereof, any obligation hereunder, or any security for any of the foregoing, (v) until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, all rights to enforce any remedy which the Secured Parties, or any of them, may have against any Borrower and (vi) until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and reimbursement from the Borrowers or other Guarantors for amounts paid hereunder and any benefit of, or right to participate in, any Collateral or other security now or hereinafter held by the Secured Parties, or any of them, in respect of the Obligations. If a claim is ever made upon any Secured Party for the repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by such Person in payment of any of the Obligations and such Person repays all or part of such amount by reason of (A) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Person or any of its property, or (B) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Person with any such claimant, including any Borrower, then in such event each Guarantor and each Borrower agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Guarantor or such Borrower, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of any promissory note or other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations, and such Guarantor or such Borrower shall be and remain obligated to such Person hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Person.
(i)
This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of the Obligations and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof and shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay by any Secured Party in the exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy and no course of dealing between any Guarantor, any Borrower and any Secured Party shall operate as a waiver thereof. No action by any Secured Party permitted hereunder shall in any way impair or affect this Guaranty. For the purpose of this Guaranty, the Obligations shall include, without limitation, all Obligations of the Borrowers to the Secured Parties, notwithstanding any right or power of any third party, individually or in the name of any Borrower or the Secured Parties, or any of them, to assert any claim or defense as to the invalidity or unenforceability of any such Obligation, and no such claim or defense shall impair or affect the obligations of any Guarantor or any Borrower hereunder.
(j)
This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. In the event the Administrative Agent makes a demand upon any Guarantor or any Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty, such Guarantor or Borrower shall be held and bound to the Administrative Agent directly as debtor in respect of the payment of the amounts hereby guaranteed. All costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
117
expenses, incurred by the Administrative Agent in obtaining performance of or collecting payments due under this Guaranty shall be deemed part of the Obligations guaranteed hereby.
(k)
Each Guarantor and each Borrower expressly represents and acknowledges that any financial accommodations by the Secured Parties to the Borrowers, including, without limitation, the extension of credit, are and will be of direct interest, benefit and advantage to such Guarantor or such Borrower.
(l)
Each Guarantor and each Borrower shall be entitled to subrogation and contribution rights from and against the Borrowers to the extent any Guarantor or any Borrower is required to pay to any Secured Party any amount in excess of the Term Loans advanced directly to, or other Obligations incurred directly by, such Guarantor or Borrower or as otherwise available under Applicable Law; provided, however, that such subrogation and contribution rights are and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.1(l), and provided further that the payment obligation of a Guarantor or a Borrower to any other Guarantor or any other Borrower under any Applicable Law regarding contribution rights or subrogation rights or similar rights among co-obligors or otherwise is and shall be expressly subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of the obligations of such Guarantor or such Borrower under the other provisions of this Guaranty and the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations and termination of all Term Commitments, and such Guarantor or such Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such contribution rights or subrogation rights or similar rights until (i) payment and satisfaction in full of all such obligations and (ii) the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all Term Commitments shall have been terminated.
Section 9.2.
Special Provisions Applicable to Additional Guarantors. Pursuant to Section 5.8 of this Agreement, any new Subsidiary of any Obligor is required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Guaranty Supplement. Upon the execution and delivery of a Guaranty Supplement by such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and Obligor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any Guaranty Supplement (or any other supplement to any Loan Document delivered in connection therewith) adding an additional Guarantor as a party to this Agreement or any other applicable Loan Document shall not require the consent of any other party hereto. The rights and obligations of each party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor hereunder.
Section 9.3.
Maximum Liability of Obligors. It being understood that the intent of the Secured Parties is to obtain a guaranty from each Guarantor and each Borrower, and the intent of each Guarantor and each Borrower is to incur guaranty obligations, in an amount no greater than the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state law relating to fraudulent conveyances or fraudulent transfers, it is hereby agreed that:
If (i) the sum of the guaranty obligations of the Guarantors and the Borrowers under Section 9.1 and, without duplication, in the case of each Borrower, the obligations arising from the joint and several liability of such Borrower with respect to Term Loans or other
118
extensions of credit made under this Agreement to each other Borrower (collectively, the “Guarantor Obligations”) exceeds (ii) the sum (the “Total Available Net Assets”) of the Maximum Available Net Assets (as defined in Section 9.4) of each Guarantor and each Borrower, in the aggregate, then (without prejudice to the Obligations of each of the Borrowers under this Agreement with respect to Term Loans or other extensions of credit made under this Agreement to it) the Guarantor Obligations of each Guarantor and each Borrower shall be limited to the greater of (x) the Total Available Net Assets and (y) the value received by such Guarantor or such Borrower in connection with the incurrence of the Guarantor Obligations to the greatest extent such value can be determined; and
if, but for the operation of this Section 9.3(b) and notwithstanding Section 9.3(a), the Guarantor Obligations of any Guarantor or any Borrower hereunder otherwise would be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state law relating to fraudulent conveyances or fraudulent transfers, taking into consideration such Guarantor's or such Borrower’s (i) rights of contribution, reimbursement and indemnity from the Borrowers and the other Guarantors with respect to amounts paid by such Guarantor or such Borrower in respect of the Obligations (including pursuant to Section 9.4) (calculated so as to reasonably maximize the total amount of obligations able to be incurred hereunder), and (ii) rights of subrogation to the rights of the Secured Parties, then the Guarantor Obligations of such Guarantor or such Borrower shall be the largest amount, if any, that would not leave such Guarantor or such Borrower, after the incurrence of such obligations, insolvent or with unreasonably small capital within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state law relating to fraudulent conveyances or fraudulent transfers, or otherwise make such obligations subject to such avoidance.
Any Person asserting that the Guarantor Obligations of such Guarantor or such Borrower are subject to Section 9.3(a) or are avoidable as referenced in Section 9.3(b) shall have the burden (including the burden of production and of persuasion) of proving (a) the extent to which such Guarantor Obligations, by operation of Section 9.3(a), are less than the Obligations of the Borrowers owed to the Secured Parties or (b) that, without giving effect to Section 9.3(b), such Guarantor’s or such Borrower’s Guarantor Obligations hereunder would be avoidable and the extent to which such Guarantor Obligations, by operation of Section 9.3(b), are less than such Obligations of the Borrowers, as the case may be.
Section 9.4.
Contribution Rights, Etc. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution, indemnity and reimbursement among the Guarantors and any other Obligors, including the Borrowers, in connection with the execution of this Guaranty, the Obligors have agreed among themselves that if any Obligor satisfies some or all of the Obligations (a "Funding Obligor"), the Funding Obligor shall be entitled to contribution, indemnity or reimbursement, as applicable, from the other Obligors that have positive Maximum Available Net Assets (as defined below) for all payments made by the Funding Obligor in satisfying the Obligations, so that each Obligor that remains obligated under this Guaranty or any other guaranty or otherwise for the Obligations at the time that a Funding Obligor makes such payment, without regard to the making of such payment (a "Remaining Obligor"), and that has a positive Maximum Available Net Assets, shall bear a portion of such payment equal to the percentage that such Remaining Obligor's Maximum Available Net Assets bears to the aggregate Maximum Available Net Assets of all Obligors that have positive Maximum Available Net Assets, provided that no Remaining
119
Obligor’s obligation to make such contribution, indemnity or reimbursement payments hereunder shall exceed an amount equal to the Maximum Available Net Assets of such Remaining Obligor.
As used herein, "Available Net Assets" means, with respect to any Obligor, the amount, as of the respective date of calculation, by which the sum of a Person's assets (including subrogation, indemnity, contribution, reimbursement and similar rights that the Obligor may have, but excluding any such rights in respect of the Guarantor Obligations), determined on the basis of a "fair valuation" or their "fair saleable value" (whichever is the applicable test under Section 548 and other relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the relevant state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws), is greater than the amount that will be required to pay all of such Person's debts, in each case matured or unmatured, contingent or otherwise, as of the date of calculation, but excluding liabilities arising under this Guaranty or, in the case of each Borrower, the liabilities arising from the joint and several liability of such Borrower with respect to Term Loans or other extensions of credit made under this Agreement to each other Borrower and excluding, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law with the objective of avoiding rendering such Person insolvent, liabilities subordinated to the Obligations arising out of loans or advances made to such Person by any other Person, and
"Maximum Available Net Assets" means, with respect to any Obligor, the greatest of the Available Net Assets of such Obligor calculated as of the following dates: (A) the date on which such Person becomes an Obligor, and (B) each date on which such Obligor expressly reaffirms this Guaranty.
Each Guarantor and Borrower shall be deemed to expressly reaffirm the guaranty provided for in this Article IX upon each borrowing of a Term Loan and automatically, without further action, upon each delivery by the Administrative Borrower of financial statements required pursuant to Section 5.1(a). The meaning of the terms "fair valuation" and "fair saleable value" and the calculation of assets and liabilities shall be determined and made in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and applicable state fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws.
ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.1.
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents.

120
(a)

(b)
reduce the amount of any principal of or interest, premium or fees due on or in respect of the Term Loans other fees payable to the Lenders;
(c)

Each of Holdings and each Obligor acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided “as is” and “as available” and (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates represents or warrants the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, sufficiency or sequencing of the Communications posted on the Platform. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates expressly disclaim with respect to the Platform any liability for errors in transmission, incorrect or incomplete downloading, delays in posting or delivery, or problems accessing the Communications posted on the Platform and any liability for any losses, costs, expenses or liabilities that may be suffered or incurred in connection with the Platform. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform.
(c)
Each Secured Party party hereto agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) (a “Notification”) specifying that any Communication has been posted to the Platform shall for purposes of this Agreement constitute effective delivery to
122
such Secured Party, as applicable, of such information, documents or other materials comprising such Communication. Each Secured Party party hereto agrees (i) to notify, on or before the date such Secured Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent in writing of such Secured Party’s e-mail address to which a Notification may be sent (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Secured Party) and (ii) that any Notification may be sent to such e-mail address.
Section 10.4.
Agent Expenses. Any action taken by any Obligor under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of any Secured Party, shall be at the expense of such Obligor, and no Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Group Member therefor except as expressly provided therein. The Borrowers will reimburse the Agent for all Agent Expenses, such reimbursement to be made (a) on the Closing Date, in the case of all Agent Expenses incurred on or prior to the Closing Date (unless waived by the Agent), and (b) promptly following request for reimbursement, in the case of other Agent Expenses. The obligations of the Obligors under this Section 10.4 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the Obligations.
Section 10.5.
Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. In addition to the payment of Agent Expenses pursuant to Section 10.4, each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Agent, each Lender, each other Secured Party and each of their respective participants, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated corporations, successor corporations, and all present and future officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents (the “Indemnitees”), from and against (i) any Environmental Liability, or any other Liability to which any Indemnitee may be subjected as a result of any past, present or future existence, use, handling, storage, transportation or disposal of any Hazardous Substance by any Group Member or with respect to any property owned, leased or controlled by any Group Member, (ii) any and all transfer taxes, documentary taxes, recording taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority (excluding income or gross receipts taxes) by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the recording or filing of any Mortgage or other Loan Document, the Agent’s Lien in any Collateral, or the making of any Term Loans, and (iii) any and all Liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceedings, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto, or with any other matter, in each case which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of or in connection with, (w) the Term Commitments, the making or maintaining of any Term Loans, the entering into of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), the Agent’s Lien in any Collateral, or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Term Loans, or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Group Member, (x) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any contractual obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any contractual obligation entered into in connection with any Platform, (y) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of its securities or its creditors (and including attorneys’ fees in any case), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person,

holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise, or (z) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing. If any investigative, judicial or administrative proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Indemnitee, upon request of such Indemnitee, the Administrative Borrower, or counsel designated by the Administrative Borrower and satisfactory to the Indemnitee, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indemnitee, at the Borrowers’ sole cost and expense. Each Indemnitee will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding. If the foregoing undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless may be held to be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrowers shall nevertheless make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities contemplated hereby which is permissible under Applicable Law. Each of the Group Members hereby releases, acquits, and forever discharges the Agent, each of the Lenders, and each other Secured Party, and each of and every past and present affiliates, officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, representatives and attorneys of the Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, from any and all claims, causes of action, suits, debts, liens, obligations, liabilities, demands, losses, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any kind, character, or nature whatsoever, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, which any Group Member may have or claim to have now or which may hereafter arise out of or connected with any act of commission or omission of the Indemnitees (except, as to each Indemnitee, to the extent arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) including, without limitation, any claims, liabilities or obligations arising with respect to the this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each of the Group Members and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and each of the past and present affiliates, officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, representatives and attorneys of the Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties. The obligations of the Obligors under this Section 10.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the Obligations.
Section 10.6.

This Agreement and other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered (including by PDF or facsimile transmission, which shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof) shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

(a)
The undersigned hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of each other Obligor now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premium, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such
Obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, documented, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Agent in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Obligor to any Lender under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Obligor.
(b)
The undersigned, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty Supplement, the Agent on behalf of each other Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty and the Obligations of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of debtors, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty and the Obligations of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Agent, the other Lenders and the undersigned hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
(c)
The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Lender under this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranty, the undersigned will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such amounts to each other Guarantor having the same Obligor as such Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Lenders under or in respect of the Loan Documents.
Section 2. Obligations Under the Guaranty. The undersigned hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Guaranty to the same extent as each of the other Guarantors thereunder.

Section 3. Representations and Warranties. The undersigned hereby makes each representation and warranty set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement as of the date hereof (except that to the extent such representation and warranty refers specifically to an earlier date, then the undersigned makes such representation and warranty as of such earlier date) to the same extent as each other Group Member. Schedules [ ], [ ] and [ ] attached hereto supplement the corresponding schedules to the Credit Agreement solely with respect to the undersigned.
Section 4. Delivery. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guaranty Supplement by facsimile transmission, portable document format (pdf) or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Guaranty Supplement.

This Guaranty Supplement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any conflict of law principles (but giving effect to federal laws relating to national banks).
(b)
The undersigned hereby consents to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty Supplement, the Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such state or federal court. The undersigned irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The undersigned agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 5(b) shall affect the right of the Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Agent or any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against any Group Member or the property of any Group Member (including the Collateral) in the courts of other jurisdictions.
(c)
The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty Supplement and any requirement that any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Obligor or any other Person or any Collateral.
(d)
The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty Supplement and acknowledges that this Guaranty Supplement is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.
(e)
The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Lender that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Obligors, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

(g)
The undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Lender to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business,
condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Lender.
(h)
The undersigned acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 5 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

The Mortgage constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Mortgagor, enforceable against Mortgagor in accordance with its terms.
2.
The execution and delivery of the Subject Documents by Mortgagor and Mortgagor's agreement to perform its obligations thereunder and comply with the terms and conditions thereof are not in contravention of or in conflict with any law, rule or regulation of the State applicable to Mortgagor.
3.
The execution and delivery by Mortgagor of the Subject Documents and its agreement to perform its obligations thereunder do not require any governmental consents, approvals, authorizations, permits, registrations, declarations or filings or other action or any notices to, consents of, orders of or filings with any governmental authority or regulatory body of the State (including those having jurisdiction over the enforcement of the environmental laws of the State), except for the recordation of the Mortgage in the recording office described herein.
4.
The Mortgage (including the acknowledgement, attestation, seal and witness requirements) is in appropriate form for recordation in the State.
5.
The Mortgage is sufficient to create a valid mortgage lien in favor of Agent on such of the Mortgaged Property described therein that constitutes real property (including fixtures, to the extent the same constitute real property). The Mortgage must be recorded in the [Insert Recording Office] in order to perfect the Lien created by the Mortgage on that portion of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property (including fixtures to the extent the same constitute real property). No other recordation, filing, re-recordation or re-filing is necessary in order to perfect or to maintain the priority of the Liens created by the Mortgage on that portion of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property (including fixtures to the extent the same constitute real property), except that we express no opinion as to continuation of perfection in proceeds other than proceeds which are also Fixtures. Upon recordation of the Mortgage in the [Insert Recording Office] Agent will have a valid and perfected mortgage Lien on that portion of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property (including fixtures to the extent the same constitute real property).
6.
The real property descriptions attached to the Mortgage are in form legally sufficient for the purpose of subjecting that portion of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes real property to the lien evidenced by the Mortgage.
7.
The Mortgage is in proper form sufficient to constitute a valid and effective fixture filing under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State naming Mortgagor as debtor and Agent as secured party.
8.
No taxes or other charges, including, without limitation, intangible, documentary, stamp, mortgage, transfer or recording taxes or similar charges are payable to the State or to an governmental authority or regulatory body located therein on account of the execution or delivery of the Mortgage, or the creation of the liens and security interests thereunder, or the filing, recordation or registration of the Mortgage, other than (a) nominal recording and filing fees and (b) [__________].
9.
Agent is not required to qualify to do or transact business in the State, or file any designation for service of process or file, solely by reason of its acceptance of the Mortgage or by reason of its participation in any of the transactions contemplated by the Mortgage, and the validity and enforceability of the Mortgage will not be affected by any failure to so qualify or file.
10.
The choice of law provisions contained in the Loan Documents will be upheld and enforced by the courts of the State and federal courts sitting in the State.
11.
The Loan, as made pursuant to the Loan Documents, complies with, or is exempt from, applicable Delaware laws, regulations and requirements pertaining to usury.
12.
Agent is not required to qualify to do or transact business in the State, or file any designation for service of process or file, solely by reason of its acceptance of the Mortgage or by reason of its participation in any of the transactions contemplated by the Mortgage, and the validity and enforceability of the Mortgage will not be affected by any failure to so qualify or file.]

For example, the ground lease and any leasehold mortgage encumbering the ground lease will have to be subordinated to the Subject Lease and to this Mortgage.]
Section 4.2
Representations; Warranties; Covenants Mortgagor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:
(a)
(1) Except as set forth in Exhibit B hereof, the Subject Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, (2) all rent and other charges therein have been paid to the extent they are payable to the date hereof, (3) Mortgagor enjoys the quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises, (4) to the best of its knowledge, Mortgagor is not in default under any of the material terms thereof and there are no circumstances which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default thereunder, (5) to the best of Mortgagor’s knowledge, the lessor thereunder is not in default under any of the material terms or provisions thereof on the part of the lessor to be observed or performed, and (6) Mortgagor has not previously subordinated its interest in the Mortgaged Property to the Lien or interests of any mortgagee of the lessor’s fee interest in the Premises;
(b)
Mortgagor shall promptly pay, when due and payable, the rent and other charges payable pursuant to the Subject Lease, taking into account any applicable grace or cure periods, and will timely perform and observe all of the other terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by Mortgagor as lessee under the Subject Lease;
(c)
Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee in writing of any default by Mortgagor in the performance or observance of any terms, covenants or conditions on the part of Mortgagor to be performed or observed under the Subject Lease within three (3) days after Mortgagor obtains knowledge of such default;
(d)
Mortgagor shall, promptly upon receipt thereof, deliver a copy of each material notice given to Mortgagor by the lessor pursuant to the Subject Lease and promptly notify Mortgagee in writing of any default by the lessor in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions on the part of the lessor to be performed or observed thereunder;
(e)
Unless required under the terms of the Subject Lease, Mortgagor shall not terminate, modify or surrender the Subject Lease without the prior written consent of Mortgagee (which, in the case of any proposed termination or surrender, may be granted or withheld in Mortgagee’s sole and absolute discretion and, in the case of any other modification, may be granted or withheld in Mortgagee’s reasonable discretion), and any such attempted termination, modification or surrender without Mortgagee’s written consent shall be void;
5
(f)
If the Subject Lease shall be rejected or disaffirmed by the lessor thereunder (or by any receiver, trustee, custodian or other party who succeeds to the rights of such lessor) pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or similar or successor law or right, Mortgagor covenants that it will not elect to treat the Subject Lease as terminated under 11 U.S.C. § 365(h) or any similar or successor law or right. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the sole and exclusive right to make or refrain from making any such election, and Mortgagor agrees that any such election, if made by Mortgagor other than in accordance with this subsection, shall be void and of no force or effect;
(g)
Mortgagor shall, within thirty (30) days after written request from Mortgagee, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the lessor and deliver to Mortgagee a certificate setting forth the name of the tenant under the Subject Lease and stating that the Subject Lease is in full force and effect, is unmodified or, if the Subject Lease has been modified, the date of each modification (together with copies of each such modification), that no notice of termination thereof has been served on Mortgagor, stating that no default or event which with notice or lapse of time (or both) would become a default is existing under the Subject Lease (or if any such default or event is existing, specifying the nature of such default or event), stating the date to which rent has been paid, and containing such other statements and representations as may be requested by Mortgagee; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no more than two (2) such certificates shall be requested during any twelve (12) month period; and

Section 4.3
No Merger So long as any of the Indebtedness or the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed, the fee title to and the leasehold estate in the Premises subject to each Subject Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct notwithstanding the union of such estates in the lessor or Mortgagor, or in a third party, by purchase or otherwise. If Mortgagor acquires the fee title or any other estate, title or interest in the Premises, or any part thereof, the lien of this Mortgage shall attach to, cover and be a lien upon such acquired estate, title or interest and the same shall thereupon be and become a part of the Mortgaged Property with the same force and effect as if specifically encumbered herein. Mortgagor agrees to execute all instruments and documents that Mortgagee may reasonably require to ratify, confirm and further evidence the lien of this Mortgage on the acquired estate, title or interest. Furthermore, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all such instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as any portion of the Indebtedness remains unpaid.
Section 4.4
Mortgagee as Lessee If the Subject Lease shall be terminated prior to the natural expiration of its term due to default by Mortgagor or any tenant thereunder, and if, pursuant to the provisions of such Subject Lease, Mortgagee or its designee shall acquire from the lessor a new lease of the Premises, Mortgagor shall have no right, title or interest in or to such new lease or the leasehold estate created thereby, or renewal privileges therein contained.
Section 4.5
No Assignment Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Mortgage shall not constitute an assignment of any Subject Lease within the meaning of any provision thereof prohibiting its assignment and Mortgagee shall have no liability or obligation thereunder by reason of its acceptance of this Mortgage. Mortgagee shall be liable for the obligations of the tenant arising out of any Subject Lease for only that period of time for which Mortgagee is in possession of the premises demised thereunder or has acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is
6
holding all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest therein.
ARTICLE 5
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
Section 5.1
Remedies Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, at Mortgagee’s election exercise any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a)
Acceleration. Subject to any provisions of the Loan Documents providing for the automatic acceleration of the Indebtedness upon the occurrence of certain Events of Default, declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever (each of which hereby is expressly waived by Mortgagor), whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable.
(b)
Entry on Mortgaged Property. Subject to the terms of the Subject Lease and applicable law, enter the Mortgaged Property and take exclusive possession thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto or located thereon. If Mortgagor remains in possession of the Mortgaged Property following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, subject to the terms of the Subject Lease and applicable law, Mortgagee may invoke any legal remedies to dispossess Mortgagor.
(c)
Operation of Mortgaged Property. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable), all in a manner consistent with the Subject Lease, and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7.
(d)
Foreclosure and Sale. Institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage by judicial action or by power of sale, in which case the Mortgaged Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels as Mortgagee may determine, subject to the terms of the Subject Lease and applicable law. With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Mortgagor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings, power of sale, or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, and against all other Persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Mortgagor. Mortgagee or any of the other Secured Parties may be a purchaser at such sale. If Mortgagee or such other Secured Party is the highest bidder, Mortgagee or such other Secured Party may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to Mortgagee or such other Secured Party against the Indebtedness in lieu of paying cash. In the event this Mortgage is foreclosed by judicial action, appraisement of the Mortgaged Property is waived.
(e)
Receiver. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Mortgagor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and in a manner consistent with the terms of the Subject Lease, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.7.

The right of sale arising out of any Event of Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
Section 5.3
Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in the Loan Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Mortgagor or others obligated under the Loan Documents, or against the Mortgaged Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by Mortgagee or any other Secured Party in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default.
Section 5.4
Release of and Resort to Collateral Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interest created in or evidenced by the Loan Documents or their status as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property. For payment of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect.
Section 5.5
Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of Mortgagee’s election to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Loan Documents, and (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
Section 5.6
Discontinuance of Proceedings If Mortgagee or any other Secured Party shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Mortgagee or such other Secured Party, as the case may be, shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Mortgagor, Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of Mortgagee or any other Secured Party thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
Section 5.7
Application of Proceeds Subject to the rights of any beneficiary of a Permitted Real Estate Encumbrance, the proceeds of any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or
8
other use of the Mortgaged Property, shall be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by the Credit Agreement or applicable law:
(a)
to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation (1) receiver’s fees and expenses, including the repayment of the amounts evidenced by any receiver’s certificates, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement, and (5) the payment of all rent and other charges under the Subject Lease;
(b)
to the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations in such manner and order of preference as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall determine; and
(c)
the balance, if any, to the Persons legally entitled thereto.
Section 5.8
Occupancy After Foreclosure Any sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in accordance with Section 5.1(d) will divest all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the property sold. Subject to applicable law and the Subject Lease, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale will receive immediate possession of the property purchased. If Mortgagor retains possession of such property or any part thereof subsequent to such sale, Mortgagor will be considered a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, and will, if Mortgagor remains in possession after demand to remove, be subject to eviction and removal, forcible or otherwise, with or without process of law.
Section 5.9
Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement To the extent not prohibited under the terms of the Subject Lease, the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee and each of the other Secured Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Mortgagee or any other Secured Party under this Section 5.9, or otherwise under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the highest rate at which interest is then computed on any portion of the Indebtedness, and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage.
(b)
Mortgagor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Indebtedness or any claim under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Mortgagee in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.
Section 5.10
No Mortgagee in Possession Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 6, the security interests under Article 7, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Mortgagee or any other Secured Party to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee or any other Secured Party to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 6
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES
Section 6.1
Assignment In furtherance of and in addition to the assignment made by Mortgagor in Section 2.1 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, sells, transfers and conveys to Mortgagee all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, whether now existing or hereafter entered into, and all of its right, title and interest in and to all Rents. This
9
assignment is an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor shall have a revocable license from Mortgagee to exercise all rights extended to the landlord under the Leases, including the right to receive and collect all Rents and to hold the Rents in trust for use in the payment and performance of the Obligations and to otherwise use the same. The foregoing license is granted subject to the conditional limitation that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not legal proceedings have commenced, and without regard to waste, adequacy of security for the Obligations or solvency of Mortgagor, the license herein granted shall automatically expire and terminate, without notice to Mortgagor by Mortgagee (any such notice being hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor to the extent permitted by applicable law).
Section 6.2
Perfection Upon Recordation Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee has taken all actions necessary to obtain, and that upon recordation of this Mortgage Mortgagee shall have, to the extent permitted under applicable law, a valid and fully perfected, first priority, present assignment of the Rents arising out of the Leases and all security for such Leases. Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that upon recordation of this Mortgage, Mortgagee’s interest in the Rents shall be deemed to be fully perfected, “xxxxxx” and enforced as to Mortgagor and to the extent permitted under applicable law, all third parties, including, without limitation, any subsequently appointed trustee in any case under Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), without the necessity of commencing a foreclosure action with respect to this Mortgage, making formal demand for the Rents, obtaining the appointment of a receiver or taking any other affirmative action.
Section 6.3
Bankruptcy Provisions Without limitation of the absolute nature of the assignment of the Rents hereunder, Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree that (a) this Mortgage shall constitute a “security agreement” for purposes of Section 552(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) the security interest created by this Mortgage extends to property of Mortgagor acquired before the commencement of a case in bankruptcy and to all amounts paid as Rents and (c) such security interest shall extend to all Rents acquired by the estate after the commencement of any case in bankruptcy.
ARTICLE 7
SECURITY AGREEMENT
Section 7.1
Security Interest This Mortgage constitutes a “security agreement” on personal property within the meaning of the UCC and other applicable law and with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Awards. To this end, subject to any Permitted Real Estate Encumbrances, Mortgagor grants to Mortgagee a first and prior security interest in the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases, Rents, Deposit Accounts, Property Agreements, Tax Refunds, Proceeds, Insurance, Condemnation Awards and all other Mortgaged Property which is personal property to secure the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations, and agrees that Mortgagee shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such property.

In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Mortgage and the terms of the Security Agreement with respect to the collateral covered both therein and herein, the Security Agreement shall control and govern to the extent of any such inconsistency.
Section 7.2
Financing Statements Mortgagor shall prepare and deliver to Mortgagee such financing statements, and shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee such other documents, instruments and further assurances, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as Mortgagee may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect and preserve Mortgagee’s security interest hereunder. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes Mortgagee to cause financing statements (and amendments thereto and continuations thereof) and any such documents, instruments and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create, perfect and preserve such security interest. Mortgagor represents and warrants to Mortgagee that Mortgagor's jurisdiction of organization is the State of [________]. After the date of this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall not change its name, type of organization, organizational identification number (if any), jurisdiction of organization or location (within the meaning of the UCC) without giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee.
Section 7.3
Fixture Filing This Mortgage shall also constitute a “fixture filing” for the purposes of the UCC against all of the Mortgaged Property which is or is to become fixtures. The information provided in this Section 7.3 is provided so that this Mortgage shall comply with the requirements of the UCC for a Mortgage instrument to be filed as a financing statement. Mortgagor is the “Debtor” and its name and mailing address are set forth in the preamble of this Mortgage immediately preceding Article 1.

SUBJECT LEASE

EXHIBIT C
LEASEHOLD MORTGAGEE PROVISIONS
The following provisions to be conformed by Lender to the particular Subject Lease:
1.
Leasehold Mortgages. Tenant may, without Landlord’s consent, assign or mortgage this Lease (including any options it contains) to any leasehold mortgagee(s) (each, a “Leasehold Mortgagee”). A Leasehold Mortgagee (and anyone whose title derives directly or indirectly from a Leasehold Mortgagee, including a purchaser at any foreclosure sale held under a Leasehold Mortgage) may, without Landlord’s consent, hold a foreclosure sale, take title to this Lease, and transfer or assign this Lease, either in its own name or through a nominee.
2.
Priority of Fee Mortgages. Any mortgage on Landlord’s fee estate (a “Fee Mortgage”) shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease. Landlord shall not enter into any Fee Mortgage that violates the previous sentence. Tenant shall not subordinate this Lease to any Fee Mortgage without consent by all Leasehold Mortgagees.
3.
No Merger. If this Lease and the fee estate in the Premises are ever commonly held, then they shall remain separate and distinct estates and shall not merge without consent by all Leasehold Mortgagees.
4.
Notice and Opportunity to Cure. If Tenant defaults, then Landlord shall so notify all Leasehold Mortgagees. Each shall have the right to cure such default. Landlord shall not terminate this Lease for Tenant’s default unless and until Landlord has given all Leasehold Mortgagees notice of such default and 30 days in which to cure it. If it cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, then each Leasehold Mortgagee shall have such additional time as it shall reasonably require, so long as it is proceeding with reasonable diligence. For any default that cannot be cured without possession of the Premises, Landlord shall allow such additional time as Leasehold Mortgagees shall reasonably require to prosecute and complete a foreclosure or equivalent proceeding and obtain such possession. If a Leasehold Mortgagee completes a foreclosure of this Lease, then Landlord shall waive any noncurable defaults.
5.
Copies of Notices. No notice given by Landlord shall be effective against a Leasehold Mortgagee unless Landlord has given a copy of it to such Leasehold Mortgagee.
6.
New Lease. If this Lease terminates because of Tenant’s default or because Tenant rejects it in bankruptcy or similar proceedings, then Landlord shall upon request enter into a new lease with the most senior Leasehold Mortgagee on the same terms and with the same priority as this Lease.
7.
8.
Condemnation Awards. To the extent that Tenant is entitled to any condemnation award, it shall be paid to the most senior Leasehold Mortgagee.
9.
Casualty and Partial Condemnation. In the event of a casualty or a partial condemnation, this Lease shall continue. Any insurance proceeds or condemnation award shall be paid to Leasehold Mortgagee or a trustee it designates, to be used first to restore. Any remainder shall be disbursed to Leasehold Mortgagee to the extent required by its loan documents, and thereafter to Tenant.
10.
Preservation of Lease. This Lease may not be amended, modified, changed, cancelled, waived, or terminated without the consent of all Leasehold Mortgagees. Landlord shall not accept a
voluntary surrender of the Lease without consent by all Leasehold Mortgagees. Any such amendment, modification, change, cancellation, termination, waiver, or surrender shall not bind any Leasehold Mortgagee or its successors or assigns unless made with such Leasehold Mortgagee’s consent.
11.
Options. If this Lease contains any renewal or purchase option and Tenant does not timely exercise it, then Landlord shall promptly notify each Leasehold Mortgagee. Each Leasehold Mortgagee shall then have 30 days to exercise the option on Tenant’s behalf.
12.
Tenant’s Rights, Generally. Any Leasehold Mortgagee may exercise any or all of Tenant’s rights under this Lease.
13.
No Personal Liability. No Leasehold Mortgagee shall have any personal liability under this Lease unless and until it becomes Tenant under this Lease.
14.
Estoppel Certificates. Landlord shall, upon request by any Leasehold Mortgagee, certify in writing that this Lease is in full force and effect, whether this Lease has been amended, that to Landlord’s knowledge Tenant is not in default, and the date through which rent has been paid.
