---

declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 4.01. The Guarantors acknowledge and agree that their obligations hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and that the Purchasers may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof.

Any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

---

---

---

Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Required Purchasers (or following the Non-Controlling Collateral Agent Enforcement Date (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the Non-Controlling Collateral Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)) may take any or all of the following actions:

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 9.01(f) or (g), the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Notes and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Agent or any Purchaser; provided, further, that any exercise of rights and remedies under Deposit Account Control Agreements requires the consent of the Required Purchasers.

Upon the acceleration (including automatic acceleration triggered by any insolvency proceeding pursuant to Section 9.01(f)), all outstanding Notes, accrued and unpaid interest and the other Obligations become immediately due and payable. If the Obligations are accelerated for any reason, the PIK Interest paid on the Notes on or prior to the date of such acceleration shall be deemed earned in full and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Purchaser’s lost profits as a result thereof. In the event that the Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means, the PIK Interest paid on the Notes on or prior to the date of such satisfaction or release shall also be earned in full. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE ISSUER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PIK INTEREST IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuer expressly agrees that (i) the PIK Interest on the Notes is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the PIK Interest on the Notes shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of conduct between the Purchasers and the Issuer giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the PIK Interest on the Notes, and (iv) the Issuer shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Issuer expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the PIK Interest on the Notes is a material inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes hereunder.

After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 9.02 (or after the Notes have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the proviso to Section 9.02), subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the BP Subordination

---

Agreement, any amounts received by any Purchaser or the Agent on account of the Obligations shall be applied in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel, and costs and expenses incurred in connection with any enforcement or realization of the Collateral) payable to the Agent in its capacity as Agent under the Note Documents;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest and any applicable Make-Whole Premium) payable to the Purchasers arising under the Note Documents and amounts payable under Article III, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, ratably among the Purchasers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third held by them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid principal of the Notes (including any capitalized PIK interest), ratably among the Purchasers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

Fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting the Make-Whole Premium, if any, ratably among the Purchasers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Issuer or as otherwise required by Law.

(e) The Agent is hereby authorized to enter into any WC Intercreditor Agreement, the BP Subordination Agreement or any subordination agreement contemplated by Section 8.03(f) or Section 8.03(m), in each case, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and each Purchaser agrees to be bound by the terms thereof and directs the Agent to enter into such WC Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Purchaser in connection with a Working Capital Facility, the BP Subordination Agreement on behalf of such Purchaser or such subordination agreement on behalf of such Purchaser and agrees that the Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of such WC Intercreditor Agreement, the BP Subordination Agreement or such subordination agreement. In addition, each Purchaser and the Agent acknowledge and agree that (a) the exercise of any rights and remedies of the Agent and the Purchasers hereunder and under the other Note Documents as a secured creditor solely in respect of any Working Capital Priority Collateral shall be subject to such WC Intercreditor Agreement and (b) in the event of any conflict between the provisions of such WC Intercreditor Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement or the other Note Documents, the provisions of such WC Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

---

The Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof):

The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided herein or under the other Note Documents) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Agent by the Issuer or a Purchaser.

The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Note Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Note Documents, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent, (vi) the financial condition or business affairs of the Issuer or any other Note Party, or (vii) the use of the proceeds of the Notes.

The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to (i) inspect the properties, books or records of the Issuer or any other Note Party or any of their respective Affiliates, (ii) file any financing statements or any continuation and/or amendment of any financing statements, in each case to perfect or continue the perfection of the Liens in the Collateral, or (iii) make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing or otherwise relating to the Issuer or any other Note Party unless expressly required herein.

---

The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the purchase of any Note, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Purchaser, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Purchaser unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Purchaser prior to the purchase of such Note. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Note Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Agent may request (i) instructions from the Required Purchasers (or such greater percentage of holders of the Notes required) prior to taking any action or entering into any amendment, modification or supplement, making any determination, making any calculation, sending any notice, revoking any notice, making a selection, request, election or appointment (including failing to make a selection, request, election or appointment), exercising any voting rights or powers (including failing to exercise any voting rights or powers), exercising any rights or remedies (and all actions incidental or related thereto), releasing, subordinating and/or terminating any Lien, exercising any powers as the attorney-in-fact for the Issuer or any other Note Party, providing any consent, approval, instruction or direction (including failing to provide any consent, approval, instruction or direction) or making (or failing to make) any filing or recording in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents, and may refrain (and shall incur no liability from so refraining) from taking or omitting to take any act or making any such determination, calculation, selection request, exercising such voting rights or powers or providing such notice, approval or consent or entering into any amendments, modification or supplements until it receives such instruction (or calculation, as applicable) from the Required Purchasers (or such number or percentage of the holders of the Notes as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Note Documents) and (ii) such indemnity from the holders of the Notes, in each case, as it reasonably deems appropriate (and until such instructions and indemnity, as applicable, are received, the Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable in its sole discretion) and the Agent shall not incur liability to any holder of the Notes, the Issuer or any other Note Party by reason of so refraining. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Note Documents in accordance with a written instruction of the Required Purchasers (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all of the holders of the Notes), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the holders of the Notes and all future holders of the Notes.

The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Note Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

---

The Agent may resign (or be removed by the Required Purchasers) as Agent at any time by giving thirty (30) days advance notice thereof to the Purchasers and the Issuer and, thereafter, the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Purchasers shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Issuer (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor Agent (other than a Disqualified Institution). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Purchasers, been approved (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) by the Issuer or have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Purchasers’ giving of notice of removal, as applicable, then the Agent may, on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) (in each case, other than a Disqualified Institution). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11.06 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. If no successor has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation or the Required Purchasers’ giving of notice of removal, as applicable, the retiring Agent’s resignation or removal shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Purchasers shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Purchasers appoint a successor agent as provided for above. In the event that a new Agent is appointed and such Agent is not an Affiliate of the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes, then the Issuer shall agree to pay to such Agent the fees and expenses (such fees to be payable annually in advance) that such Agent may reasonably request in connection with its appointment and service.

Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Purchaser or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Note Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Note Party, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Note shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Issuer) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

---

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Purchaser to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Purchasers, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Section 12.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Purchaser any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Purchaser or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Purchaser in any such proceeding.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Note Document, and no consent to any departure by the Issuer or any other Note Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by (i) the Required Purchasers (or the Agent at the written direction of the Required Purchasers) and (ii) the Issuer or the applicable Note Party, as the case may be, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, further, that:

---

it being agreed that all Purchasers shall be deemed to be directly and adversely affected by an amendment, waiver or supplement described in the preceding clause (iv), (v), (vi) or (vii); and

---

Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices and other communications sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such subsection (b).

Unless the applicable recipient otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided, that, for both clauses (i) and (ii), if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice, email or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

No failure by any Purchaser or the Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Note Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Note Document,

---

are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and/or the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, each Purchaser agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any of the Note Documents, it will not take any legal action or institute any action or proceeding against any Note Party with respect to any of the Obligations or Collateral, or accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the Obligations.

Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and/or the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Note Documents may be exercised solely by the Required Purchasers (or, at the direction of the Required Purchasers and the Agent) on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereby and thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Note Document, but subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and/or the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Note Documents against the Note Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Required Purchasers (or, at the direction of the Required Purchasers and the Agent) for the benefit of all the Secured Parties; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Agent) hereunder and under the other Note Documents, (b) any Purchaser from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.14), or (c) any Purchaser from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Note Party under any Debtor Relief Law.

Each Purchaser, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations, to have agreed to the provisions of this Section.

---

---

None of the Agent or the Purchasers shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Note Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Note Party is made to the Agent or any Purchaser, or the Agent or any Purchaser exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Purchaser in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

---

---

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Purchaser sells such a participation shall provide that such Purchaser shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that, such agreement or instrument may provide that such Purchaser will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 12.01(a) that affects such Participant. The Issuer agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(c) shall be delivered to the participating Purchaser)) and Sections 10.01 and 10.02 to the same extent as if it were a Purchaser and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided, that, such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 10.01 or 10.02, with respect to any participation, than the Purchaser from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Purchaser; provided, that, such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Purchaser. Each Purchaser that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Issuer, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Notes (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Purchaser shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant'sParticipant’s interest in any Note) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Purchaser shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

---

Each of the Agent and the Purchasers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Note Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Note Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Participant, assignee or transferee (or its Related Parties) of, or any prospective Participant, assignee or transferee (or its Related Parties) of, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to a Note Party and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Issuer or their Subsidiaries or the Notes or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the Notes, (h) with the consent of the Issuer, (i) to the members of its investment committee (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (j) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Agent, any Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Note Parties, (k) for purposes of establishing any defense available under securities laws, including, without limitation, establishing a “due diligence” defense or (l) to the extent independently developed by such the Agent, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates without reliance on the Information.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Note Party or any Subsidiary relating to the Note Parties or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Purchaser on a nonconfidential basis, provided, that, in the case of information received from a Note Party or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, each Purchaser and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, 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 such Purchaser or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Issuer or any other Note Party against any and all of the obligations of the Issuer or such Note Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Note Document to such Purchaser or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Purchaser or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Note Document and although such obligations of the Issuer or such Note Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Purchaser different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Purchaser and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff)

---

that such Purchaser or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Purchaser agrees to notify the Issuer promptly after any such setoff and application, provided, that, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Note Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Note Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Purchaser shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Notes or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Issuer. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Agent or a Purchaser 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.

This Agreement and each of the other Note Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Note Documents, the Equity Issuance Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by fax transmission or e-mail transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Note Documents or certificate. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered under the terms of any LoanNote Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

All representations and warranties made by any Note Party hereunder and in any other Note Document or Equity Issuance Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Note or other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agent and each Purchaser, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent or any Purchaser or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Purchaser may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any purchase of the Notes, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Note or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Note Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable

---

provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a “Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. Each of the Note Parties agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on each of the Note Parties to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Note Parties enforceable against such in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Agent and each of the Purchasers of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Agent and each of the Purchasers may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed

---

created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Agent and each of the Purchasers shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Note Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Agent or any Purchaser, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.
