The term “Environment” means ambient air, indoor air, land surface and subsurface strata, surface water, ground water, drinking water and natural resources such as wetlands, flora and fauna.

(x) Title to Real and Personal Property. Parent and the Subsidiaries own or lease all such material properties as are reasonably necessary to the conduct of the businesses of Parent and the Subsidiaries as presently operated as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus. Parent and the Subsidiaries have (i) good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them, in each case free and clear of any and all Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and except such as are described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus or such as do not (individually or in the aggregate) materially affect the value of such property or materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such property by Parent and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and (ii) peaceful and undisturbed possession of any material real property and buildings held under lease or sublease by Parent and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and such leased or subleased real property and buildings are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases and no default exists thereunder (including, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, defaults by the landlord), with such exceptions as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of any claim adverse to its ownership of any real or personal property or of any claim against the continued possession of any real property, whether owned or held under lease or sublease by Parent or any Subsidiary, which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(y) Title to Intellectual Property. Parent and each Subsidiary (i) owns or possesses a right to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, domain names, trade names, trademark registrations, service xxxx registrations, copyrights, licenses, formulae, customer lists, and know-how and other intellectual property (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures, the “Intellectual Property”) necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses as presently being conducted and as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus,

except where the failure to own or possess the right to use would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) have no reason to believe that the conduct of their respective businesses does or will conflict with, and have not received any notice of any claim of conflict with, any such right of others (except where such conflict with any such right of others would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, there is no infringement by third parties of any Intellectual Property of Parent or any Subsidiary; except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there is no pending or, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, threatened, action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging the rights in or to any Intellectual Property of Parent or any Subsidiary; and except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there is no pending or, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, threatened, action, suit, proceeding or claim by others that Parent or any Subsidiary infringes or otherwise violates any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of others.

(z) Taxes. (i) Parent and each Subsidiary has accurately prepared and timely filed all federal, state, foreign and other tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid or made provision (to the extent required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) or the applicable requirements of any non-U.S. accounting standards) for the payment of all federal, state, foreign and other tax assessments, governmental or other similar charges, including without limitation, all sales and use taxes and taxes which Parent or any Subsidiary is obligated to withhold from amounts owing to employees, creditors and third parties, with respect to the periods covered by such tax returns (whether or not such amounts are shown as due on any tax return); (ii) no deficiency, assessment or other claim with respect to a proposed adjustment of Parent or any Subsidiary’s federal, state, local or foreign taxes is pending or, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, threatened; (iii) the accruals and reserves on the books and records of Parent and the Subsidiaries in respect of tax liabilities for any taxable period not finally determined are adequate (in accordance with U.S. GAAP or the applicable requirements of any non-U.S. accounting standards) to meet any assessments and related liabilities for any such period and, since December 31, 2016, Parent and the Subsidiaries have not incurred any liability for taxes other than in the ordinary course of its business; and (iv) there is no tax lien, whether imposed by any federal, state, foreign or other taxing authority, outstanding against the assets, properties or business of Parent or any Subsidiary, except, in each case of clauses (i) through (iv), as would not reasonably be expected (individually or in the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(aa) Accounting Controls. Parent and the Subsidiaries maintain systems of “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act, have been designed by, or under the supervision of, their respective principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, are effective and have been designed to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP (or the applicable requirements of any non-U.S. accounting standards) and to maintain accountability for assets, (iii) access to material assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences, and (v) the interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus fairly present the information called for in all material respects and are prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto. The Company and the Guarantors are not aware of any existing material weaknesses in their internal control over financial reporting. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, there has been no change in Parent’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect, Parent’s internal control over financial reporting.

(bb) Disclosure Controls. Parent maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that have been designed to ensure that material information relating to Parent and the Subsidiaries is disclosed to Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those entities and, as of December 31, 2016, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(cc) Property and Casualty Insurance. Parent and the Subsidiaries maintain property and commercial general liability insurance in such amounts and covering such risks as Parent and the Subsidiaries reasonably consider adequate for the conduct of Parent and each Subsidiary’s businesses and the value of Parent’s and each Subsidiary’s properties and as is customary for publicly held companies engaged in similar businesses in similar industries, all of which property and casualty insurance is in full force and effect, except where the failure to maintain such property and casualty insurance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no material claims by Parent or any Subsidiary under any such insurance policy or instrument as to which any insurance company is denying liability or defending under a reservation of rights clause. Parent has no reason to believe that Parent and each Subsidiary will not be able to renew their respective existing property and casualty insurance as and when such coverage expires or will be able to obtain replacement property and commercial general liability insurance adequate for the conduct of the business and the value of its properties at a cost that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary has received notice from any insurer or agent of such insurer that substantial capital improvements or other expenditures will have to be made in order to continue such property and casualty insurance.

(dd) No Undisclosed Relationships. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, no relationship material to Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, direct or indirect, exists between or among Parent, any Subsidiary or, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, any affiliate of the Company, on the one hand, and any director, executive officer or, to the Company’s and the Guarantors’ knowledge, security holder (or any immediate family member of such director, executive officer or security holder), of Parent, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company, on the other hand, which is required by the Securities Act to be described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus and that is not so described. There are no material outstanding loans, advances (except normal advances for business expenses in the ordinary course of business) or guarantees of indebtedness by the Company or Parent to or for the benefit of any of the executive officers or directors of the Company or Parent or any of their respective family members. Parent has not, in violation of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”), directly or indirectly, including through a Subsidiary, extended or maintained credit, arranged for the extension of credit, or renewed an extension of credit, in the form of a personal loan to or for any director or executive officer of Parent.

(ee) Investment Company Act. Each of Parent and each Subsidiary is not now and, after completion of the sale of the Securities as contemplated hereunder will not be, required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) and is not and will not be an entity “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

(ff) [Reserved]

(gg) No Stabilization or Manipulation. None of Parent, any Subsidiary, or any controlled affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) has (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action which constitutes or is designed to cause or result in, or which would reasonably be expected to constitute, cause or result in, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of Parent or any Subsidiary to facilitate the sale or distribution of the Securities or (ii) since the date of the Preliminary Prospectus (A) sold, bid for, purchased or paid any person any compensation for soliciting purchases of the Securities or (B) paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of Parent or any Subsidiary.

the Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates indicated and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the periods specified in all material respects; such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby in all material respects. The other historical financial, as adjusted and statistical information included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus and that is derived from the historical financial information and statements presents fairly the information included therein in all material respects and has been prepared on a basis consistent with that of the financial statements and historical and as adjusted financial information and statements that are included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus and the books and records of the respective entities presented therein and, to the extent such information is a range, projection or estimate, is based on the good faith belief and estimates of the management of Parent.

(ll) Solvency.

pay their debts (contingent or otherwise) as they mature or (iii) insolvent.

(mm) No Broker’s Fees. Except pursuant to this Agreement, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between or among Parent and the Subsidiaries, and any other person that would give rise to a valid claim against Parent or any Subsidiary or the Underwriters for a brokerage commission, finder’s fee or like payment in connection with the Offering.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Company and each of the Guarantors agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and actual out-of-pocket legal fees and other reasonable and actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to an Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use therein.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless (i) the Company and each of the Guarantors, (ii) each of their respective directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement and (iii) each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the following: the third sentence of the sixth paragraph and the eighth paragraph in the section entitled “Underwriting” in the Prospectus.

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraphs (a) and (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraphs (a) and (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in which case in this clause (iv), the Indemnifying Person’s obligations shall be for reasonable and actual outside counsel fees and expenses. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and any such separate firm for the Company, each of the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, each of their respective officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company and the Guarantors shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the

Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the Offering and also to reflect the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors from the sale of the Securities and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company, the Guarantors, and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall any Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the Offering exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligation hereunder and not joint.

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

8. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto.

9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by written notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by Parent or any Subsidiaries shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the Offering; or (v) other than as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, the occurrence of any change in the financial condition, business, properties, assets, prospects or results of operations of Parent and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus.

10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters.

(a) If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Date to purchase any of the 2022 Notes, 2025 Notes and/or 2027 Notes which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Notes”), then the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other Underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Defaulted Notes, as the case may be, in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(i) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Notes does not exceed 10% of the respective aggregate principal amounts of 2022 Notes, 2025 Notes or 2027 Notes, as the case may be, to be purchased on such date pursuant to this Agreement, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations under this Agreement bear to the purchase obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters of such 2022 Notes, 2025 Notes or 2027 Notes, as the case may be; or

(ii) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Notes exceeds 10% of the respective aggregate principal amounts of 2022 Notes, 2025 Notes or 2027 Notes, as the case may be, to be purchased on such date pursuant to this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

(b) No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangement.

11. Payment of Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent accountants; (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative may designate and the preparation, printing and distribution of a Blue Sky memorandum (including the related fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters); (vi) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; (vii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any paying agent (including related fees and expenses of any outside counsel to such parties); and (viii) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with any filing with, and clearance of the Offering by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. The Company shall not be obligated to pay any expenses incurred in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors (including investor meetings, ground transportation, conference calls, NetRoadshow and document processing). The Company shall not be obligated in any manner to pay or reimburse any expenses or other costs of any of the Underwriters, other than as set forth in clauses (v) and (viii) of this paragraph, paragraph (b) of this Section and pursuant to Section 7, including, but not limited to, the costs and expenses of the Underwriters’ legal counsel or any costs incurred by the Underwriters.

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 (other than clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) of Section 9), (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable and actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its outside counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the Offering; provided that in no event shall such costs and expenses (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs or expenses pursuant to Section 7) to be reimbursed by the Company exceed $100,000.

12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of any Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from an Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

13. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors or the Underwriters. The respective representations, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 7 and 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

14. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; and (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City.
