(a) Basic Interest.

Subject to Applicable Law, any interest that shall accrue on overdue interest on the Note (as provided in this Section 2.06(b)) and shall not have been paid in full on or before the next Interest Payment Date to occur after the date on which the overdue interest became due and payable shall itself be deemed to be overdue interest to which this Section 2.06(b) shall apply.

(c) No Usurious Interest. In the event that any interest rate(s) or premiums provided for in this Section 2.06 or otherwise in this Agreement, shall be determined to be unlawful, such interest rate(s) shall be computed at the highest rate permitted by Applicable Law.

In connection with the obligation of the Credit Parties to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, each Credit Party further agrees, upon presentation of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all such expenses (including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel and costs of investigation incurred by an Indemnified Party in any action or proceeding between any Credit Party (or any of its Subsidiaries) and such Indemnified Party (or Indemnified Parties) or between an Indemnified Party (or Indemnified Parties) and any third party or otherwise) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if an Indemnified Party is reimbursed hereunder for any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded to the extent it is finally judicially determined that the Liabilities in question resulted primarily from (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party or (ii) the breach by such Indemnified Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement of such Indemnified Party contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

13.01. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of each Credit Party hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Credit Party shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) Purchaser receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) such Credit Party shall make such deductions and (iii) such Credit Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, each Credit Party shall timely pay any (i) Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and (ii) costs relating to the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns relating thereto.

(c) Each Credit Party shall jointly and severally indemnify the Purchaser, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Purchaser and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Credit Party, signed by an authorized person on behalf of Purchaser, shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein, absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Credit Party to a Governmental Authority, such Credit Party shall deliver to Purchaser the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.

(e) A Foreign Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the United States, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments by a Credit Party under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document shall deliver to such Credit Party, at the time or times reasonably requested by Issuer two original Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (e.g., ▇-▇ ▇▇▇, ▇-▇ ECI), as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, and related documentation certifying that such Foreign Purchaser is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. In addition, the Purchaser, if requested by Issuer or the Purchaser, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Issuer or the Purchaser as will enable Issuer to determine whether or not the Purchaser is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; provided, that the Issuer or the Purchaser, as applicable, agrees to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information provided by the Purchaser in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information and to not disclose such information except as required by Applicable Law, and provided, further, that should the Purchaser become subject to Indemnified Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Credit Parties shall take such steps as the Purchaser shall reasonably request to reasonably assist (consistent with its preexisting internal policies applied on a nondiscriminatory basis and legal and regulatory restrictions) the Purchaser to recover such Indemnified Taxes.
