Payments Generally.

(a)

all other Obligations payable by any Note Party under the Note Documents shall be due, without any presentment thereof, directly to the Purchasers, at such office or bank account as may be specified by each Purchaser from time to time by written notice to the Issuer. The Note Parties will make such payments in Dollars, in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date due, marked for attention as indicated, or in such other manner or to such other account in any United States bank as the Purchasers may from time to time direct in writing.

If any payment to be made by the Issuer shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest.

(b)

Obligations of Purchasers are Several. The obligations of the Purchasers hereunder to purchase the Notes and to make payments pursuant to Section 12.04(d) are several and not joint. The failure of any Purchaser to purchase the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be purchased by it or to make any payment under Section 12.04(d) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Purchaser of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Purchaser shall be responsible for the failure of any other Purchaser to purchase the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be purchased by it or to make its payment under Section 12.04(d).

(c)

(i)

if any such purchase is made by any Purchaser, and if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Purchaser, the related purchases from the other Purchasers shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest; and

(ii)

the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, or (B) any payment obtained by a Purchaser as consideration for the assignment of any of its portion of the Notes to any assignee, other than an assignment to the Issuer or any Subsidiary (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

If any withholding or deduction of any Taxes from any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Note Party hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable Law, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such withholding or deduction and shall pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by applicable law, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall promptly forward to the Purchasers an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Required Purchasers evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority and (iii) the sum payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased by such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the applicable Recipient will equal the full amount such Recipient would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

(d)

The Issuer shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes with respect to any Note Document or any payment thereunder (including Taxes imposed on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment by such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

(e)

Each Purchaser that purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 12.06 after the Closing Date shall execute and deliver to the Issuer on or prior to the date that such Purchaser becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Issuer), one or more (as the Issuer may reasonably request) duly completed and executed copies of any

forms, certificates or documents reasonably requested by the Issuer certifying as to such Purchaser’s entitlement to any available exemption from or reduction of withholding or deduction of taxes. The Issuer shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Purchaser pursuant to this Section 4.01 with respect to taxes attributable to the failure of such Purchaser to comply with this paragraph.

(f)

Each Purchaser agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 4.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such form or certification or promptly notify the Issuer of its inability to do so.

(g)

Each of the parties to the Agreement shall, within ten (10) days of a reasonable request by another party to the Agreement, supply to that other party:

(i)

such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA, and

(ii)

such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime, such as the Common Reporting Standard.

(h)

If a Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 4.01(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.01(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.01(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 4.01(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

4.02

Survival.

All of the Note Parties’ obligations under this Article IV shall survive any transfer of the Notes, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

4.03

Mitigation of Obligations.

If the Issuer is required to pay any Taxes or additional amounts to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.01, then at the request of the Issuer, such Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for purchasing its Notes hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,

branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Purchaser such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.01 as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Purchaser to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Purchaser. The Issuer hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by any Purchaser in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Note Documents, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable state or federal law.

Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Issuer or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article V until such time as the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been paid in full.

any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Agent or any Purchaser as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or

(e)

any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor).

With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Agent or any Purchaser exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Note Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Note Documents, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.

5.03

Reinstatement.

The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article V shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify each Secured Party on demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Secured Party in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

5.04

Certain Additional Waivers.

Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of recourse to security for the Obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 5.02 and through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to Section 5.06.

5.05

Remedies.

The Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 10.02) for purposes of Section 5.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such 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 5.01. 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.

5.06

Rights of Contribution.

The Guarantors agree among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Guarantor shall have contribution rights against the other Guarantors as permitted under applicable law.

(a)

declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, prepayment and repayment premiums thereto (if any) and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Note Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Note Parties; and

(b)

exercise, or instruct the Agent to exercise (and the Agent shall exercise upon such instruction), all rights and remedies available to the Agent or the Purchasers under the Note Documents and applicable Law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 10.01(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.

Upon the acceleration (including automatic acceleration triggered by any insolvency proceeding pursuant to Section 10.01(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 are reasonable and are 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 its agreement to pay the PIK Interest on the Notes is a material inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes hereunder.

10.03

Application of Funds.

After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 10.02 (or after the Notes have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the proviso to Section 10.02), subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor 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 the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest, but including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Purchasers and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Purchasers arising under the Note Documents, 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; 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.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent may exercise any discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Note Documents or otherwise delegated to the Agent under any Note Document at the direction of the Required Purchasers and without the consent of any other Purchaser.

(b)

shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Note Documents to which the Agent is a party, which the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be expressly provided for herein or in such other Note Documents), provided, that, the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Note Document to which the Agent is a party or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; and

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.

11.06

Resignation or Removal of Agent.

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. 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). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent 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.

11.07

Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Purchasers.

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.

11.08

Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

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:

(b)

subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

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 to 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.

None of the Issuer and any of its Affiliates will, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Purchaser as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any Purchaser of any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Note Documents, unless such remuneration is concurrently offered, on the same terms, ratably to all of holders of Notes which agree to such amendment, waiver or consent.

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).

(b)

Electronic Communications. Each of the Issuer, other Note Parties, the Agent and the Purchasers may each, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided, that, approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

The Agent and the Purchasers shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Note Party even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Note Parties shall indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Purchaser and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of a Note Party.

12.03

No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.

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 First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and 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 First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and 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, 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 First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and 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, 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.

12.04

(b)

Indemnification by the Note Parties. The Note Parties shall indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Purchaser, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (in the case of legal fees, limited to reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel for the Agent and one primary outside counsel, one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, in each case, selected by the Required Purchasers, to Indemnitees, collectively (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where any Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Issuer of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, another firm of counsel for any such affected Indemnitee))), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Issuer or any other Note Party) arising out of, in connection with,

or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Note Documents, (ii) any Note or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by a Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to a Note Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Issuer or any other Note Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided, that, such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, if the Issuer or other Note Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c)

Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Issuer shall (and shall cause each Note Party and all of their respective Subsidiaries to) not assert, and the Issuer hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Note Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Note or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Note Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(d)

Reimbursement by Purchasers. To the extent that the Note Parties for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by them to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party thereof, each Purchaser severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Purchaser’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Purchaser’s share of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Purchaser), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Purchaser’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Purchaser’s share of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes at such time), provided, further, that, the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent (or any such sub-agent), or against any Related Party thereof acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Purchasers under this subsection (d) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(b).

(e)

Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than five (5) Business Days after demand therefor.

(f)

Survival. The agreements in this Section and the indemnity provisions of Section 12.02(d) shall survive the resignation of the Agent, the transfer of any Note and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

12.05

Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

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.

12.06

Successors and Assigns; Transfers.

(a)

Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Note Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Issuer and the other Note Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Purchasers) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)

Transfers by Purchasers. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to transfer, without restriction (subject to compliance with the Securities Act and any state securities laws), any Note held by such Purchaser to its Affiliates or another Purchaser (or, solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to any other Person).

(c)

[Reserved].

(d)

No Future Liability. Following the sale of any Note or portion thereof by the Purchasers to any subsequent Purchasers pursuant to the terms hereof, the Purchasers shall not be liable or responsible to the Issuer for any losses, damages or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Issuer, including any losses, damages or liabilities under the Securities Act, arising from or relating to any resale or transfer of any security previously sold by the Purchaser in compliance with this Section 12.06.

(e)

Securities Register. The Issuer will keep a register, in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, but at its expense, and the Issuer will provide for the registration and transfer of Notes. Whenever any Note shall be surrendered either at the principal executive office of the Issuer (or at the place of payment named in the Note), for transfer or exchange, accompanied, if so required by the Issuer, by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer duly executed by the holder thereof or by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Issuer will execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Notes, in such denominations as may be requested by such holder, of like tenor and in the same aggregate unpaid principal amount as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Note or Notes so surrendered. Any Note issued in exchange for any other Note or upon transfer thereof shall carry the rights to unpaid interest and interest to accrue which were carried by the Note so exchanged or transferred, and neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from any such transfer or exchange. Any transfer tax or governmental charge relating to such transaction shall be paid by the holder requesting the exchange. The entries in the register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error and the Issuer, the Agent, the Purchasers and any of their respective agents may treat

the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the sole and exclusive record and beneficial holder and owner of such Note for all purposes whatsoever. This Section 12.06(e) shall be construed so as to conform with the registration requirements in Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) (or any successor provisions thereof) and so that such obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or such regulations).

(f)

Lost, Stolen Damaged or Destroyed Notes. At the request of any holder of any Note, the Issuer will issue and deliver at its expense, in replacement of any Note lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, upon surrender thereof, if mutilated, a new Note in the same aggregate unpaid principal amount, and otherwise of the same tenor, as the Note so lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, duly executed by the Issuer. The Issuer may condition the replacement of a Note reported by the holder thereof as lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, upon the receipt from such holder of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer.

(g)

Certain Pledges. Any Purchaser may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Purchaser, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that, no such pledge or assignment shall release such Purchaser from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Purchaser as a party hereto.

12.07

Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.

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 assignee or transferee (or its Related Parties) of, or any prospective 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 the Agent, a 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.

12.08

Set-off.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the First Lien 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.

12.09

Interest Rate Limitation.

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.

12.10

Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

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 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 Note Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

12.11

Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made by any Note Party hereunder and in any other Note 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.

12.12

Severability.

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.

12.13

Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

(a)

GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the other Note Documents (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Note Document (except, as to any other Note Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b)

SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH NOTE PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT (AND IT WILL NOT PERMIT ANY NOTE PARTY TO) COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE AGENT, ANY PURCHASER OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY OTHER FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND ANY UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE 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 AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE AGENT OR ANY PURCHASER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT AGAINST THE ISSUER OR ANY OTHER NOTE PARTY OR THEIR RESPECTIVE PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c)

WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH NOTE PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d)

SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 12.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

12.14

Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

12.15

Judgment Currency.

(a)

If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)

The obligations of the Issuer in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the Obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the

Issuer agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Issuer contained in this Section 12.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

12.16

Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents.

This Agreement, the Notes, 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 (including but not limited to DocuSign) converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.
