Employment of Agents The Borrower Representative may execute any of its duties as the Borrower Representative hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through authorized officers.
Termination of Agent The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Lead Securitization Noteholder. In the event that the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 31, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination. The Agent may resign at any time upon notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholders, has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. GSBI, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Noteholder. GSBI, as Initial Agent, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause such Servicer to act as successor Agent, and, if such Servicer declines to act in such capacity, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause a similar servicer to act as successor Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Noteholders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Certificate Administrator, as Certificate Administrator under the Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Certificate Administrator as Agent under this Agreement.
Compensation of Agent (a) Owner shall pay to Agent a real estate commission in connection with each purchase of a Property in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the gross purchase price of the Property (which does not include amounts budgeted for repairs and improvements), in consideration of Agent (or any person with whom Agent subcontracts or contracts hereunder) performing the services provided for in this Agreement in connection with the purchase of the Property. In consideration of Agent (or any person with whom Agent subcontracts or contracts hereunder) performing the services provided for in this Agreement in connection with the sale of a Property, Owner shall pay to Agent the following: a real estate commission in connection with the sale of a Property in an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the gross sales price of the Property, if, but only if, the sales price of the Property exceeds the sum of (A) Owner’s cost for the Property (consisting of the original purchase price plus all capitalized costs and expenditures connected with the Property), without any reduction for depreciation, and (B) ten percent (10%) of such cost. If the person from whom Owner purchases or to whom Owner sells a Property pays any fee to Agent, such amount shall decrease the amount of Owner’s obligation to Agent. Furthermore, Agent shall not be entitled to any real estate commission in connection with a sale of a Property by Owner to Agent or any Affiliate of Agent or the purchase of a Property by Owner from Agent or any Affiliate of Agent, but Agent will, in such case, be entitled to payment by Owner of its direct costs in such regard. The fees and expenses provided for herein shall be payable if Owner sells or purchases a property, sells shares in Owner or purchases shares in the owner of a property, effects a merger of Owner with another entity, or undertakes any other transaction, the purpose or effect of which is, in essence, to dispose of or purchase some or all Properties. In any case other than an actual sale or purchase of Properties, Owner and Agent shall in good faith agree upon an allocation of purchase price to each Property which is effectively disposed of or purchased.

Xxxxx X. Knight for so long as Xx. Xxxxxx remains a director or executive officer of such program.
Appointment of Agent GE Capital is hereby appointed to act on behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 9.2 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and no Credit Party nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party or any other Person. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Account Debtor that is communicated to or obtained by GE Capital or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable.
Appointment of Agents The Custodian may at any time or times in its discretion appoint (and may at any time remove) any other bank or trust company which is itself qualified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, to act as a custodian, as its agent to carry out such of the provisions of this Article 2 as the Custodian may from time to time direct; provided, however, that the appointment of any agent shall not relieve the Custodian of its responsibilities or liabilities hereunder.
Resignation of Agents Any Agent may at any time give written notice of its resignation to the Lenders, each L/C Issuer and the Lead Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Lead Borrower (as long as no Event of Default then exists), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 60 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and each L/C Issuer with the approval of the Lead Borrower (as long as no Event of Default then exists), appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment within 60 days after the retiring Agent gives notices of its resignation, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or each L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Lead Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder.
Resignation of Agent The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. The Initial Agent may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.
Retirement of Notes The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to, prepay or otherwise retire in whole or in part prior to their stated final maturity (other than by prepayment pursuant to paragraphs 4A, 4B or 4C or upon acceleration of such final maturity pursuant to paragraph 7A), or purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, Notes of any Series held by any holder unless the Company or such Subsidiary or Affiliate shall have offered to prepay or otherwise retire or purchase or otherwise acquire, as the case may be, the same proportion of the aggregate principal amount of Notes of such Series held by each other holder of Notes of such Series at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any Notes so prepaid or otherwise retired or purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall not be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose under this Agreement, except as provided in paragraph 4E.
Compensation of Trustee Each of the Trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as co-trustee (the "co-trustee"), shall be entitled to receive from the Depositor as compensation for its services hereunder, trustee's fees pursuant to a separate agreement among the Trustee, the co-trustee, and the Depositor, and shall be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by it (including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of its counsel and other persons not regularly in its employ). The Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Trustee and the co-trustee, and its successors, assigns, agents and servants against any and all loss, liability or reasonable expense (including attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties thereunder. The Trustee and the co-trustee shall notify the Depositor promptly of any claim for which they may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or the co-trustee to so notify the Depositor shall not relieve the Depositor of its obligations hereunder. The Depositor need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee or the co-trustee through the Trustee's or the co-trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The indemnities contained in this Section 13 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Trustee or the co-trustee, or the termination of this Agreement. Failure by the Depositor to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Trustee or the co-trustee shall not entitle the Trustee or the co-trustee to any payment, reimbursement or indemnification from the Trust, nor shall such failure release either the Trustee or the co-trustee from the duties it is required to perform under this Series Supplement. Any unpaid, unreimbursed or unindemnified amounts shall not be borne by the Trust and shall not constitute a claim against the Trust, but shall be borne by each of the Trustee and the co-trustee in its individual capacity, and the Trustee and the co-trustee shall have no recourse against the Trust with respect thereto.
