All notices or demands sent in accordance with this Section 15, other than notices by Collateral Agent in connection with enforcement rights against the Collateral under the provisions of the Code, shall be deemed received on the earlier of the date of actual receipt or 3 Business Days after the deposit thereof in the mail. Borrower and Parent acknowledge and agree that notices sent by Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of enforcement rights against Collateral under the provisions of the Code shall be deemed sent when deposited in the mail or personally delivered, or, where permitted by law, transmitted by telefacsimile or any other method set forth above.

16. Miscellaneous. Sections 15.2 (Severability), 15.3 (Integration), 15.4 (Waivers), 15.6 (Time of Essence), 15.7 (Expenses, Fee and Costs Reimbursement), 15.8 (Benefit of Agreement; Assignability) (it being understood that reference therein to Section 15.9 of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement shall be deemed a reference to Section 18 hereof), 15.10 (Participations), 15.11 (Headings; Construction), 15.12 (USA PATRIOT Act Notification), 15.13 (Counterparts; Fax/Email Signatures), 15.14 (Governing Law), 15.15 (Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; Consent to Service of Process), and 15.17 (Confidentiality) of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as a part hereof for all purposes.

17. Amendments. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and acknowledged by the Loan Parties, Parent and the Required Lenders, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall (i) increase the commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) extend the date scheduled for payment of any principal of or interest on ~~the~~any Loan or any fees payable hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, the rate of interest thereon or any fees payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or (iv) release any guarantor from its obligations under any Guaranty, other than as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreement, or release or subordinate its liens on all or any substantial part of the Collateral granted under any of the other Loan Documents (except as permitted pursuant to Section 22(b)), or change the definition of “Required Lenders”, any provision of Section 4.2, any provision of Section 16 (but solely with respect to Section 15.4 of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement incorporated herein mutatis mutandis) or this Section 17, without, in each case set forth in this clause (iv), the written consent of all Lenders. No provision of Section 22 or other provision of this Agreement affecting Collateral Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Collateral Agent.

18. Assignment.

(a) Subject to (i) the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) receipt of the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided, that no consent of Borrower shall be required (1) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) in connection with an assignment or a delegation to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than natural persons) of a Lender, or (3) such assignment or delegation is required or deemed advisable by any Governmental Authority to which any Lender is subject; provided, further, that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to a proposed assignment unless it objects thereto by written notice to Lender within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof), each Lender may assign and delegate to one or more assignees (each an “Assignee”) all, or any ratable part of all, of the Obligations and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that Borrower may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Borrower by such Lender and the Assignee, and (ii) such Lender and its Assignee (and Borrower, solely to the extent the Borrower’s consent is required pursuant to this clause (a)) have delivered to Borrower an Assignment and Assumption (with appropriate adjustments thereto to reflect this Agreement and the Obligations) (each, an “Assignment and Assumption”).

(b) From and after the date that (i) Senior Agent’s consent has been obtained in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) the applicable Lender, Assignee, and Borrower (solely to the extent the Borrower’s consent is required pursuant to clause (a) above) execute an Assignment and Assumption, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, shall have the assigned and delegated rights and obligations of such Lender under the Loan Documents, and (y) such Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned and delegated by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights (except with respect to rights to indemnification under this Agreement) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto), and such assignment shall affect a novation between Borrower and the Assignee.

(c) Immediately upon Borrower’s receipt of the fully executed Assignment and Assumption and other items required by Section 18(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the rights and duties of the applicable Lender arising therefrom.

19. Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Schedules and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

20. Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall not be required to pay, and no Lender shall be permitted to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive, any compensation which constitutes interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by law (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or otherwise contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received, then in such event: (a) the provisions of this Section 20 shall govern and control; (b) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (c) any Excess Interest that any Lender may have contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received hereunder shall be, at such Lenders’ option, (i) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law) owed to such Lender, (ii) refunded to the payor thereof, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing; (d) the interest provided for shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (e) the Borrower shall have no action against the Collateral Agent or any Lender for any damages arising due to any Excess Interest. If for any period of time interest on any Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Obligations owed to any Lender shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such Lender shall have received the amount of interest which such Lender would have received during such period on such Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period. All sums paid or agreed to be paid hereunder or under the other Loan Documents for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, pro‑rated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amounts of interest on account of the Obligations does not exceed the Maximum Rate. The terms of this Section 20 shall be deemed incorporated into each other Loan Document, whether or not specific reference to this Section 20 is made.

21. Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Obligations evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Liens and security interests granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and thereof and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent or any Lender hereunder or thereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything that may be contained herein to the contrary, all of the provisions of the Loan Documents, including without limitation, the covenants of the Loan Parties and Parent contained herein and therein and all of the rights, remedies and powers for herein and therein, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.

22. Collateral Agent.

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) [reserved]; (b) execute and deliver as Collateral Agent, each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document; (c) act as collateral agent for Lenders for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein and execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents; (e) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; (f) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute payments and proceeds of the Collateral as provided in the Loan Documents, (g) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Collateral Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents, (h) take any enforcement action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral or under any Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, and (i) incur and pay such expenses as Collateral Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents, whether or not any Loan Party is obligated to reimburse Collateral Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 22 are solely for the benefit of Collateral Agent and the Lenders, and the Loan Parties and the Parent shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” as used herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any similar term) with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Lenders irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien granted to or held by Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) as required pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) upon payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claims have been made); (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder (including the release of any guarantor); or (iii) subject to Section 17 above, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; or (b) to subordinate its interest in any Collateral to any holder of a Lien on such Collateral which is permitted by clause (a) or (b) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” (it being understood that the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from Borrower in determining whether the Indebtedness secured by any such Lien is permitted hereunder). Upon request by Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 22(b). Collateral Agent may, and at the direction of Required Lenders shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, give blockage notices in connection with the Intercompany Subordinated Debt and each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to give such notices. Each Lender further agrees that it will not act unilaterally to deliver such notices.

(c) Sections 14.3 (Duties and Obligations), 14.4 (Reliance), 14.5 (Sub-Agents), 14.6 (Resignation), 14.7(a) (Non-Reliance), 14.8 (Not Partners or Co-Venturers; Collateral Agent as Representative of the Secured Parties) (other than the last sentence of Section 14.8(a)); 14.9 (Credit Bidding), 14.11 (Restrictions on Actions by Lenders), 14.12 (Expenses); 14.13 (Notice of Default or Event of Default), and 14.14 (Liability of Agent) of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as a part hereof for all purposes (for the avoidance of doubt, with references to “Agent” in such provisions (and defined terms used in such provisions) being deemed for all purposes hereof to refer to Collateral Agent).
