2.1 Term Loan.

(a) Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Credit Agreement, the Lender agrees to make one term loan to the Borrower during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount specified by the Borrower not to exceed the Committed Amount. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

(b) Loan Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower shall request the Loan borrowing by written notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Lender not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) on the third Business Day (or such later day as the Lender may agree in its sole discretion) prior to the date of the requested borrowing.

(ii) Minimum Amounts. The Loan borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining Committed Amount, if less).

(iii) Advances. The Lender will make the Loan borrowing available to the Borrower on the Borrowing Date by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the office of the Lender specified in Section 7.1 in immediately available funds. The Lender at its option may make the Loan by causing any of its domestic or foreign branches or Affiliates to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement.

(b) Repayment. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay in full the principal amount of the Loan and the other Obligations outstanding, and not previously repaid, on the Maturity Date.

(c) Interest and Facility Fee. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2, the outstanding Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the LIBOR Rate Spread. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender accrued interest and the Facility Fee on the Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date and, if the Loan is prepaid, on the date of such prepayment.

2.2 Default Rate.

The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender interest on demand on all overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law (after as well as before judgment), overdue interest in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder or under the other Credit Documents at a rate 2% per annum greater than the rate which would otherwise be applicable (or if no rate is applicable, then 2% per annum greater than the Prime Rate).

2.3 Extension.

Unless a Loan shall have been prepaid on or before the last day of the applicable Interest Period, a new Interest Period shall automatically apply to the Loan beginning on the Business Day immediately following the last day of the then expiring Interest Period; provided (i) that no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date, and (ii) the Borrower may elect to have the Prime Rate apply to any portion of a Loan that is not less than $1,000,000 at any time, upon not less than one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to Lender, subject to the payment of any amounts due under Section 2.10 if any such portion of the Loan is converted to a Base Rate Loan on a date other than on the last day of an Interest Period. Any Base Rate Loan in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 may be converted into a LIBOR Loan upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice from Borrower to Lender.

2.4 Prepayments.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without any premium or penalty; provided that (i) any such prepayment of a Loan shall include all interest accrued on the portion of the Loan so prepaid and all other moneys then due and payable under this Credit Agreement; (ii) partial prepayments shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 and multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof and (iii) any prepayment shall be made together with all additional amounts, if any, due under Section 2.10.

(b) Notice. In the case of voluntary prepayments under subsection (a) hereof, the Borrower will give notice to the Lender of its intent to make such a prepayment by 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment.

2.5 Capital Adequacy.

If, after the Closing Date, the Lender has determined that the adoption or effectiveness of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Lender or its holding company with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s or its holding company’s capital as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Lender’s or its holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon notice from the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or its holding company for such reduction. Each determination by the Lender of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay to the Lender amounts otherwise owing under this Section 2.5 if the Lender shall not have delivered such written notice to the Borrower within ninety (90) days following the later of (i) the date of occurrence of the event which forms the basis for such notice and request for compensation and (ii) the date the Lender becomes aware of such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender agrees that, before giving any notice seeking a payment under this Section 2.5, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender as the office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender having the commitments and obligations of the Lender hereunder if making such designation would avoid or reduce the amount of such reduction in its rate of return on its capital or assets and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

2.6 Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for the Lender to maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, (a) the Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, (b) the commitment of the Lender hereunder to continue LIBOR Loans as such and shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for the Lender to maintain LIBOR Loans, the Lender shall then have a commitment only to maintain a Base Rate Loan when the continuation of a LIBOR Loan is supposed to occur hereunder and (c) the Lender’s Loan then outstanding as a LIBOR Loan, if any, shall be converted automatically to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect to such Loan or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.10.

2.7 Requirements of Law.

If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to the Lender, or compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender) (it being understood and agreed that matters set forth in the Consultation Paper issued by the Basle Committee on Banking Supervision of June 1999 shall not be treated as having been adopted or applied prior to the Closing Date):

(i) shall subject the Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Loan made by it or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.8 (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by reason of any failure of the Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 2.8 (b)) and changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income, or franchise tax (imposed in lieu of such net income tax), of the Lender or its applicable lending office, branch, or any affiliate thereof);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Lender; or

(iii) shall impose on the Lender any other condition (excluding any tax of any kind whatsoever);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, continuing or maintaining the Loan or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from the Lender, in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable; provided that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay to the Lender amounts otherwise owing under this Section 2.7 if the Lender shall not have delivered such written notice to the Borrower, within ninety (90) days following the later of (A) the date of occurrence of the event which forms the basis for such notice and request for compensation and (B) the date the Lender becomes aware of such event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall be deemed to be a change in a Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower certifying (x) that one of the events described in this Section has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by the Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the Lender to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender agrees that, before giving any notice seeking a payment of additional amounts under this Section 2.7, the Lender will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different office, branch or Affiliate as the office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender making, continuing or maintaining the Loan hereunder or having the commitments and obligations hereunder resulting in such increased cost to the Lender or reduction in the amount receivable by the Lender hereunder if making such designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost or would avoid or decrease the reduction in the amount receivable hereunder and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

2.8 Taxes.

(a) Except as provided below in this subsection, all payments made by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, (excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes imposed on the Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax and the Lender (except a connection arising solely from the Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Credit Agreement)) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions and withholdings being hereinafter called “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Credit Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any Non-Excluded Taxes and shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof if the Lender fails to comply with the requirements of Section 2.8(b). Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for any taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Lender as a result of any such failure. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay to the Lender amounts otherwise owing under this Section 2.8(a) if the Lender shall not have delivered such written notice to the Borrower within ninety (90) days following the later of (i) the date of occurrence of the event which forms the basis for such notice and request for indemnity and (ii) the date the Lender becomes aware of such event. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) The Lender agrees that it shall:

(X)(i) so long as it is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement to the Lender, deliver to the Borrower two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to receive payments under this Credit Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes;

(ii) deliver to the Borrower two further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower; and

(iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower; or

(Y) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (i) agree to furnish to the Borrower on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or successor applicable form certifying to the Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Credit Agreement (and to deliver to the Borrower two further copies of such form on or before the date it expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form and, if necessary, obtain any extensions of time reasonably requested by the Borrower for filing and completing such forms), and (ii) agree, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower, to provide to the Borrower such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of the Lender to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Credit Agreement;

unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Person (or, in the case of a Person that shall become a Lender or a Participant pursuant to Section 7.2, its transferor) becomes the Lender hereunder which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent the Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and the Lender so advises the Borrower. Each Person that shall become the Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements required pursuant to this subsection; provided that in the case of a Participant the obligations of such Participant pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be determined as if the Participant were a Lender except that such Participant shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Lender.

2.9 Place and Manner of Payments

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments hereunder shall be made to the Lender in Dollars in immediately available funds, without offset, deduction, counterclaim or withholding of any kind, at its offices specified in Section 7.1 not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York, New York time) on the date when due. Payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day. The Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time to any ordinary deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Lender (with notice to the Borrower). The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payment under this Credit Agreement, specify to the Lender the principal, interest, Facility Fee or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that it fails so to specify, or if such application would be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Lender shall apply the payment in such manner as the Lender may determine to be appropriate in respect of obligations owing by the Borrower hereunder). Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the immediately succeeding Business Day (subject to accrual of interest at non-default rates and fees for the period of such extension (but not any default interest on amounts as to which such due date shall have been extended)), except that in the case of LIBOR Loans, if the extension would cause the payment to be made in the next following calendar month, then such payment shall instead be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, all computations of interest and fees shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing, but exclude the date of payment.

2.10 Break Funding Payments.

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or (b) the failure to borrow or prepay any LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense to the Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the interest that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the then applicable LIBOR Rate for a period available in the London interbank market closest in length to such remaining period. A certificate of the Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that the Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may not assign and transfer any of its interests without prior written consent of the Lender; provided further that the rights of the Lender to transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights and/or obligations hereunder shall be limited as set forth in this Section 7.2, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent or prohibit the Lender from (i) pledging or assigning its Loan hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by the Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) granting assignments or participations in the Lender’s Loan and/or Commitments hereunder to its parent company and/or to any of its Affiliate.

(b) Assignments. The Lender may, upon obtaining the consent of the Borrower, assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance to another bank or financial institution; provided that (i) no such consent shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) consent of the Borrower shall not be required with respect to any assignment by the Lender to its Affiliate or to a party that is not a competitor of or adverse to the Borrower and no such consent shall be required from the Borrower after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default. Any assignment hereunder shall be effective upon execution by all necessary parties of the applicable Assignment and Acceptance. The assigning Lender will give prompt notice to the Borrower of any such assignment. Upon the effectiveness of any such assignment (and after notice to the Borrower as provided herein), the assignee shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and, to the extent of such assignment, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the Loan and Commitment components being assigned.

(c) Participations. The Lender may sell, transfer, grant or assign participations in all or any part of its interests and obligations hereunder to one or more banks or other entities (each a “Participant”); provided that (i) the selling Lender shall remain the “Lender” for all purposes under this Credit Agreement (the selling Lender’s obligations under the Credit Documents remaining unchanged) and the Participant shall not constitute a Lender hereunder, (ii) no such Participant shall have, or be granted, rights to approve any amendment or waiver relating to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents except to the extent any such amendment or waiver would (A) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on or fees in respect of any Loan in which the Participant is participating, or (B) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal (including extension of the Maturity Date or the date of any mandatory prepayment), interest or fees in which the Participant is participating and (iii) sub-participations by the Participant (except to an affiliate, parent company or affiliate of a parent company of the Participant) shall be prohibited. In the case of any such participation, except as contemplated in clause (ii) of the proviso of the first sentence of this Section, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents (the Participant’s rights against the selling Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the participation agreement with the Lender creating such participation) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

7.3 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between or among the parties hereto shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle any such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Lender to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

7.4 Payment of Expenses, etc.

The Borrower agrees to: (i) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) of the Lender in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any amendment, waiver or consent relating to this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it shall consent, including, but not limited to, any such amendments, waivers or consents resulting from or related to any work-out, renegotiation or restructuring relating to the performance by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement and of the Lender in connection with enforcement of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein (including, without limitation, in connection with any such enforcement, the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel for the Lender); and (ii) indemnify the Lender, their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Credit Document or the use of proceeds of any Loan (including other extensions of credit) hereunder or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in any Credit Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Person to be indemnified). In clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding shall be brought by or relate to a third party (other than by and between the Borrower and the Lender) then the Borrower shall be permitted to defend claims using professionals chosen by the Borrower, subject to the approval of the Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Borrower agrees that in any such case no claim will be settled without the prior written consent of the indemnified Person against whom such claim is made unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Person.

7.5 Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

Neither this Credit Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Lender and the Borrower.

7.6 Counterparts.

This Credit Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Credit Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Credit Agreement.

7.7 Headings.

The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Credit Agreement.

7.8 Survival of Indemnification.

All indemnities set forth herein, including, without limitation, in Sections 2.8, 2.9, 2.10 and 7.4 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, and the making of the Loan, the repayment of the Loan and other obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder; provided, however, that payment of any such amounts shall be subject to the limitations, if any, regarding requirements for notice set out in such Sections.

7.9 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document against the Borrower or any of its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) THE LENDER AND THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

7.10 USA Patriot Act.

The Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT ACT (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 ) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow the Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

7.11 Severability.

If any provision of any of the Credit Documents is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

7.12 Entirety.

This Credit Agreement together with the other Credit Documents represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

7.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein shall survive the execution of this Credit Agreement and the making of the Loan hereunder.

7.14 Fiduciary Relationship.

The Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lender and its Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Lender or its Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.
