Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation, the payment of amounts referred to in clause (ii) above and the par purchase price referred to in (i) above, and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and, unless the Replaced Lender continues to have outstanding Loans hereunder, the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, no Lender that acts as a Facing Agent may be replaced hereunder at any time during which such Facing Agent has Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder, unless arrangements satisfactory to such Facing Agent (including (1) the furnishing of a standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, satisfactory to such Facing Agent or (2) the depositing of cash collateral into a collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to such Facing Agent) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be.
