Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a failure of the Company to comply with any provision of this Section 5.15 shall not be deemed an Event of Default under the Indenture or this Agreement or any other agreement, and the sole remedy under this Agreement in the event of any failure of the Company to comply with this Section 5.15 shall be an action by the Issuer to compel performance, which may, to the extent required to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income of the owners thereof, include redemption of all or a portion of the Bonds in accordance with their terms. In addition, the indemnity rights of the Issuer and the Trustee set forth herein or in the Indenture shall not in any way be limited by this Section 5.15.

The Issuer may enforce its rights under this Agreement and the Indenture which have not been assigned to the Trustee by legal proceedings for the specific performance of any obligation contained herein or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, and may recover damages caused by any breach by the Company of its obligations to the Issuer under this Agreement or the Indenture including any reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and court costs and other costs and expenses incurred in enforcing such obligations.

(e)If applicable, the Trustee shall have the right to immediately draw upon any Letter of Credit, if permitted by its terms and required by the terms of the Indenture and apply the amount so drawn in accordance with the Indenture and may exercise any remedy available to it thereunder.

In case the Trustee or the Issuer shall have proceeded to enforce its rights under this Agreement and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or the Issuer, then, and in every such case, the Company, the Trustee and the Issuer shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the Issuer shall continue as though no such action had been taken.

The Company covenants that, in case a Loan Default Event shall occur with respect to the payment of any Loan Payment payable under Section 4.02(a) hereof, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable under said Section, with interest on the amount then overdue with respect to principal at the rate then borne by the Bonds on the day prior to the occurrence of such default.

In the case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company and collect in the manner provided by law the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

In case proceedings shall be pending for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed for the property of the Company or in the case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Company, or the creditors or property of the Company, then the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount owing and unpaid pursuant to this Agreement and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute such amounts as provided in the Indenture after the deduction of its reasonable and documented charges and expenses to the extent permitted by the Indenture. Any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized to make such payments to the Trustee, and to pay to the Trustee

- 27 -

any amount due it for reasonable and documented compensation and expenses, including reasonable and documented expenses and fees of counsel incurred by it up to the date of such distribution.

In the event the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in any proceedings which result from a Loan Default Event under Section 7.01(d) hereof, or from any default which, with the passage of time, would become such Loan Default Event, the expenses so incurred and compensation for services so rendered are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the United States Bankruptcy Code or equivalent law.

Section 7.03Agreement to Pay Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses. In the event the Company should default under any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Issuer or the Trustee should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of the payments due under this Agreement or the enforcement of performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the part of the Company herein contained, the Company agrees to pay to the Issuer or the Trustee the reasonable and documented fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable and documented expenses so incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee.

Section 7.04No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Issuer or the Trustee is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Issuer or the Trustee to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be expressly required in this Agreement or by applicable law. Such rights and remedies as are given the Issuer hereunder shall also extend to the Trustee as the assignee of the Issuer. Notwithstanding any other provision hereunder, the Trustee may proceed first against either the Guarantors or the Company in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty and/or this Agreement, respectively, as the Trustee may deem appropriate.

Section 7.05No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement should be breached by the Company and thereafter waived by the Issuer or the Trustee, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder.

ARTICLE IX
NON-LIABILITY OF ISSUER; EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.01Non-liability of Issuer; Limitations on Issuer Actions and Responsibilities. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, except from Revenues. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Issuer’s sole source of moneys to repay the Bonds will be provided by the payments made by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, together with other Revenues with respect to the Bonds, including amounts received by the Trustee under the Guaranty or the Letter of Credit, if any, and investment income on certain funds and accounts held by the Trustee under the Indenture, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that if the payments to be made hereunder shall ever prove insufficient to pay all principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds as the same shall become due (whether by maturity, redemption, acceleration or otherwise), then upon notice from the Trustee, the Company shall pay such amounts as are required from time to time to prevent any deficiency or default in the payment of such principal, premium or interest, including, but not limited to, any deficiency caused by acts, omissions, nonfeasance or malfeasance on the part of the Trustee, the Company, the Issuer, the Credit Provider, if any, or any third party, other than as a result of such party’s willful misconduct.

The Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture, this Agreement and the Bonds shall not constitute a debt or liability of or a pledge of the faith and credit of the Issuer, the State, any political subdivisions thereof, or any municipality therein. Nothing herein, in the Indenture or in the Bonds, shall directly, indirectly or contingently obligate the Issuer, the State any political subdivision thereof or any municipality to levy or pledge any form of taxation whatsoever or make any appropriation for the payment of the Bonds.

The Issuer shall not be required to monitor the financial condition of the Company, the investment or expenditure of proceeds of Bonds, or the physical condition or use of the Project and, unless otherwise expressly provided, shall not have any responsibility with respect to notices, Certificates or other documents filed with it. The Issuer shall not be required to take notice of any breach or default except when given notice thereof by the Trustee or the Holders, as the case may be. The Issuer shall not be responsible for the payment of any rebate to the United States under Section 148(f) of the Code, except as otherwise set forth in Section 6.06 of the Indenture. The Issuer shall not be required to take any action unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it is furnished for expenses or liability to be incurred therein (other than the giving of notice). The Issuer, upon written request of the Holders or the Trustee, and upon receipt of reasonable indemnity for expenses or liability, shall cooperate to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee to exercise any power granted to the Trustee by this Agreement or the Indenture. The Issuer shall be entitled to reimbursement pursuant to Section 4.02(d) hereof to the extent that it acts without previously obtaining full indemnity.

The Issuer shall be entitled to the advice of counsel (who may be counsel for any party or for any Holder) and shall be wholly protected as to any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in reliance on such advice. The Issuer may rely conclusively on any notice, Certificate or other document furnished to it under this Agreement or the Indenture and reasonably believed by it to be genuine. The Issuer shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the discretion or power conferred upon it, or in good faith omitted to be taken by it and reasonably believed to be beyond such discretion or power, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed under this Agreement or the Indenture or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required for such action under this

- 30 -

Agreement or the Indenture, or be responsible for the consequences of any error of judgment reasonably made by it. When any payment, consent or other action by the Issuer is called for by this Agreement or the Indenture, the Issuer may defer such action pending such investigation or inquiry or receipt of such evidence, if any, as it may reasonably require in support thereof. A permissive right or power to act shall not be construed as a requirement to act, and no delay in the exercise of a right or power shall affect the subsequent exercise thereof. The Issuer shall in no event be liable for the application or misapplication of funds, or for other acts or defaults by any Person except by its own directors, officers and employees. No recourse shall be had by the Company, the Trustee or any Holder for any claim based on this Agreement or the Indenture or the Bonds against any director, officer, official, employee or agent of the Issuer unless such claim is based upon the willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or deceit of such Person. No covenant, obligation or agreement of the Issuer contained in this Agreement or the Indenture shall be deemed to be a covenant, obligation or agreement of any present or future director, officer, employee or agent of the Issuer in his individual capacity, and no Person executing a Bond shall be liable personally thereon or be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance thereof.

Section 9.02Expenses. The Company covenants and agrees to reimburse the Issuer and the Trustee (in all of its capacities) for all reasonable and documented costs and charges, including, without limitation, the Trustee’s compensation provided for in the Indenture and including fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys, accountants, agents, consultants and other experts, incurred in good faith in connection with this Agreement or the Indenture.

Section 9.03Indemnification. The Company, regardless of any agreement to maintain insurance, will indemnify the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar and the Tender Agent (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against (a) any and all claims by any Person related to the participation of an Indemnified Party in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation claims arising out of (i) any condition of the Financed Assets or the construction, use, occupancy or management thereof; (ii) any loss or damage to property or injury to or death of or loss by any Person that may be occasioned by any cause whatsoever pertaining to the construction, maintenance, operation and use of the Financed Assets; (iii) any breach or default on the part of the Company in the performance of any covenant or agreement of the Company under this Agreement, the Reimbursement Agreement or any related document, or arising from any act or failure to act by the Company, or any of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees; (iv) any act or omission of the Company or any of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees; or (v) the offering, issuance, sale or any resale of the Bonds to the extent permitted by law, and (b) all reasonable and documented costs, counsel fees, expenses, or liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon. In case any action or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party by reason of any such claim, the Company will defend the same at its expense upon notice from the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party, will cooperate with the Company, at the expense of the Company, in connection therewith.

- 31 -

The Company agrees to indemnify the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar and the Tender Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, all liabilities, claims, costs and expenses incurred without willful misconduct, or gross negligence on the part of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Tender Agent on account of any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Tender Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Bonds or the Indenture or any action taken at the request of or with the consent of the Company, including the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of the Trustee and the Paying Agent in defending themselves against any such claim, action or proceeding brought in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties under this Agreement, the Bonds, the Indenture, the Reimbursement Agreement, the Letter of Credit, if any, or the Guaranty. The indemnification provided by this Section 9.03 shall survive the termination or defeasance of this Agreement, or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

In case any action or proceeding is brought against the Issuer, the Trustee or the Tender Agent in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, the party seeking indemnity promptly shall give notice of that action or proceeding to the Company, and the Company upon receipt of that notice shall have the obligation and the right to assume the defense of the action or proceeding; provided, that failure of a party to give that notice shall not relieve the Company from any of its obligations under this Section unless that failure prejudices the defense of the action or proceeding by the Company. Each indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and participate in the investigation and defense thereof. The Indemnified Party (as applicable) shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such separate counsel; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company only if, in such Indemnified Party’s good faith judgment, a conflict of interest exists by reason of common representation, if all parties commonly represented do not agree as to the action (or inaction) of counsel or if the Company has not timely assumed the investigation and defense thereof. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement made without its consent.

The indemnification set forth above is intended to and shall include the indemnification of all affected officials, directors, officers, affiliates, and employees of the Issuer, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar, the Tender Agent and the Trustee, respectively. That indemnification is intended to and shall be enforceable by the Issuer, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar, the Tender Agent and the Trustee, respectively, to the full extent permitted by law and shall survive the discharge of the Indenture.

In addition to the indemnification provided herein, as it relates to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar and the Tender Agent and their rights and obligations hereunder all of the rights, privileges, powers, immunities, indemnities, limitations of liability of the Trustee (in all of its capacities), as set forth in the Indenture shall also apply to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Bond Registrar and the Tender Agent under this Agreement as if specifically set forth herein. No covenant, obligation or agreement of the Trustee (in any of its capacities) contained in this Agreement or the Indenture shall be deemed to be a covenant, obligation or agreement of any present or future director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee in its individual capacity.
