(i) Each Revolving Lender severally, and not jointly with the other Revolving Lenders, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to make revolving credit loans denominated in Dollars (each a βRevolving Loanβ and collectively, the βRevolving Loansβ) to the Borrower at any time and from time to
48
time during the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, when added to such Revolving Lender's LC Exposure, the Revolving Commitment of such Lender, which Revolving Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. At no time shall the sum of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans plus the LC Exposure exceed the Total Revolving Commitment.
(ii)Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan shall be made from the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Revolving Lender to make any Revolving Loan shall not in itself relieve the other Revolving Lenders of their obligations to lend.
(b)Term Loan Commitments. Each Term Lender severally, and not jointly with the other Term Lenders, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to make a term loan denominated in Dollars (each a βTerm Loanβ and collectively the βTerm Loansβ) to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Lender, which Term Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any amount borrowed under this Section 2.01(b) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Each Term Lender's Term Loan Commitment shall terminate immediately and without further action on the Closing Date after giving effect to the funding by such Term Lender of the Term Loans to be made by it on such date.
(c)Type of Borrowing. Each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d)Amount of Borrowing. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire Unused Total Revolving Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.02(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time.
(e)Limitation on Interest Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, (i) any Borrowing of a Revolving Loan if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments or (ii) any Borrowing of a Term Loan if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Term Loan Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.02.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Letters of Credit. (a) General. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of (and, subject to the
49
penultimate sentence of clause (b) below, the applicable Issuing Lender shall issue) Letters of Credit in Dollars or any Alternative Currency, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in each case, for the Borrower's own account or the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender and the Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Each Existing Letter of Credit listed on Schedule 2.02 shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(ii) The parties hereto agree that the Existing Letters of Credit will automatically, without any further action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder issued hereunder on the Closing Date for the account of the Borrower. Without limiting the foregoing (i) each such Existing Letter of Credit shall be included in the calculation of the LC Exposure, (ii) all liabilities of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations and (iii) each Revolving Lender shall have reimbursement and participation obligations with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit as provided in clauses (d) and (e) below.
(b)Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall either provide (i) telephonic notice promptly followed by written notice or (ii) hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)) to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying (1) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), (2) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraphΒ (c) of this Section), (3) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (4) the currency of such Letter of Credit, (5) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and (6) such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that, to the extent such standard form (and/or any related reimbursement agreement) is inconsistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Documents shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (x) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Commitment and (y) the aggregate amount of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment shall not be less than zero. No Issuing Lender (other than an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) shall permit any such issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining
50
written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement.
(c)Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i)Β the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the earliest Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments (provided that, to the extent that all of the participations in such Letter of Credit held by the holders of such Revolving Commitments have been re-allocated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to the terms of any Extension Amendment or Refinancing Amendment, such Revolving Commitments shall be disregarded for purposes of this clause (ii)).
(d)Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit, including any amendment increasing the amount thereof), and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Revolving Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Dollar Amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Dollar Amount of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence of an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(e)Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement or (subject to the two immediately succeeding sentences), with respect to any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement in the applicable Alternative Currency not later than the first Business Day following the date the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, to the extent not reimbursed and, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, including, without limitation, making a request in accordance with Section 2.03(a) that such payment shall be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing, as the case may be, in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing. If the Borrower's reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender to any stamp duty, ad
51
valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, the Borrower shall pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the Borrower's obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement and the Dollar Amount thereof.
If the Borrower fails to make any payment due under the preceding paragraph with respect to a Letter of Credit when due (including by a Borrowing), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement (as converted to Dollars, if applicable), the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(e) with respect to any LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Revolving Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
(f)Obligations Absolute. The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraphΒ (e) of this Section 2.02 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.02, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders, nor the applicable Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or
52
other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(g)Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the applicable Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms herein.
(h)Interim Interest. If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement in full not later than the first Business Day following the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraphΒ (e) of this Section, then Section 2.08 shall apply; provided further that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made under a Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in the applicable Alternative Currency and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest as provided above. Interest accrued
53
pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.02 to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
(i)Replacement of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.21. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term βIssuing Lenderβ shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(j)Replacement of Letters of Credit; Cash Collateralization.

The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Letter of Credit Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (in accordance with its usual and customary practices for investments of this type) and at the Borrower's risk and reasonable expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.

Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed, or extended by it (and whether, subject to Section 2.02(b), the face amount of any such Letter of Credit was changed thereby) and the aggregate face amount of such Letters of Credit outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
(l)Conversion.

55
or applied), (ii) that the Revolving Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.02(e) in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Revolving Lender's participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Amount of such amounts.

(m)Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments and Commitments in Respect of Refinancing Revolving Facilities. If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit with respect to which Lenders holding such Revolving Commitments hold participation interests, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (e) and for any reallocations required pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.02(j). For the avoidance of doubt, commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit under any tranche of Revolving Commitments that has not so then matured shall be as agreed in the relevant Extension Amendment or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable, with such Revolving Lenders (to the extent such Extension Amendment or Refinancing Amendment so provides).

In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon written demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Borrowing.

(ii)the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii)whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and
(iv)if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term βInterest Periodβ.

60
Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans.
SECTION 2.10.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Amortization of Term Loans; Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(e)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(f)Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.

(a)Within three (3) Business Days of the Borrower or any other Grantor receiving any Net Cash Proceeds as a result of an Asset Sale or a Recovery Event in respect of Collateral (including, without limitation, an Event of Loss concerning an Airframe, Engine, Spare Engine or Spare Parts), the Borrower or such other Grantor shall, if the Borrower shall not be in compliance with Section 6.06(a) on the date such Net Cash Proceeds are received, deposit cash in an amount (the βNet Cash Proceeds Amountβ) equal to the amount of such received Net Cash Proceeds (solely to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with Section 6.06(a)) into an account that is maintained with the Administrative Agent for such purpose and subject to an Account Control Agreement and thereafter such Net Cash Proceeds Amount shall be applied (to the extent not otherwise applied pursuant to the immediately succeeding proviso and solely to the extent the Borrower is not in compliance with Section 6.06(a)) in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c); provided that (i) in the case of any Net Cash Proceeds Amount in respect of any Event of Loss so deposited and involving an Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine, the Borrower shall be permitted to use such Net Cash Proceeds Amount to replace such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine, as the case may be, with a Replacement Airframe or Replacement Engine, as the case may be, in accordance with the requirements of the Aircraft Mortgage, with such Replacement Airframe or Replacement Engine to be subject to the Lien of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Aircraft Mortgage and otherwise satisfying the requirements of the Aircraft Mortgage at the time of (or substantially simultaneously with) the release of such Net Cash Proceeds Amount, (ii) in the case of any Net Cash Proceeds Amount in respect of any Recovery Event (other than any such Net Cash Proceeds Amount covered by clause (i) above) so deposited, the Borrower may use such Net Cash Proceeds Amount to repair or replace the assets which are the subject of such Recovery Event with comparable assets which shall be subject to a first priority (subject to Specified Permitted Collateral Liens) Lien of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (iii) in the case of any Net Cash Proceeds Amount in respect of any Asset Sale so
62
deposited, the Borrower may use such Net Cash Proceeds Amount to replace the assets which are the subject of such Asset Sale with comparable assets within 365 days after such deposit is made, (iv) all such Net Cash Proceeds Amounts shall be subject to release as provided in Section 6.06(c) or, at the option of the Borrower at any time, may be applied in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c), and (v) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount of any such deposit may be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12(c); provided that any release of any Net Cash Proceeds Amount pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section shall be conditioned on the Borrower being in compliance with Section 6.06(a) after giving effect thereto (it being understood that the failure to be in compliance with Section 6.06(a) shall not prevent the release of any Net Cash Proceeds Amount in connection with any repair or replacement of assets permitted hereunder so long as no decrease in either Collateral Coverage Ratio will result therefrom).
(b)The Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans and/or the Revolving Loans (without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.06, in each case as directed by the Borrower.
(c)Amounts required to be applied to the prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a) shall be applied to prepay (i) first, the outstanding Term Loans and (ii) second, the outstanding Revolving Loans (and to provide Cash Collateralization for the outstanding LC Exposure following the repayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans). All such prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to the remaining scheduled Installments as directed by the Borrower, and all such prepayments of Revolving Loans (and Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LC Exposure) shall be accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments. To the extent that the amount required to be applied to the prepayment of Revolving Loans (and to the Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LC Exposure) exceeds the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and all outstanding LC Exposure, the Revolving Commitments shall be permanently reduced in the amount of such excess. Any Cash Collateralization of outstanding LC Exposure shall be consummated in accordance with Section 2.02(j). The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.12 may not be reborrowed.
(d)If at any time the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit for any reason exceed the Total Revolving Commitment at such time (taking into account any permanent reductions of Revolving Commitments required pursuant to Section 2.12(c)), the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit to the extent of such excess.
(e)Upon the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to any Revolving Commitment, such Revolving Commitment shall be terminated in full and the Borrower shall repay the applicable Revolving Loans in full and, except as the Administrative Agent may otherwise agree in writing, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding, comply with Section 2.02(j) in accordance therewith.
63
(f)All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Section 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

(b)Any prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be applied, at the Borrower's option, to (i) repay the outstanding Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lenders (without any reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment) and Cash Collateralize the outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.02(j) until all Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full (plus any accrued but unpaid interest and fees thereon) and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, or, if outstanding, then backed by such Cash Collateralization and/or (ii) prepay the Term Loans of the Term Lenders. All such prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to the remaining scheduled Installments in the manner directed by the Borrower. All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof. Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.13(a) may not be reborrowed.
(c)Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.
64
(d)In the event that, prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, there shall occur any Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Term Lenders holding Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event, (x) in the case of a Repricing Event of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, a prepayment premium of 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event and (y) in the case of a Repricing Event of the type described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness thereof, in each case, unless such fee is waived by the applicable Term Lender. Any Term Lender that is a non-consenting Lender in respect of a Repricing Event may be replaced in accordance with Section 10.08(d) to the extent permitted thereby; provided that any such Term Lender so replaced shall be entitled to the prepayment premium set forth in clause (x) of the preceding sentence with respect to its Term Loans so assigned unless such fee is waived by such Term Lender.
SECTION 2.14.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:
(i)Subject any Lender or Issuing Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes, and (C) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or similar Taxes)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(ii)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)) or Issuing Lender; or
(iii)impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided that any determination by a Lender or Issuing Lender of amounts owed pursuant to clause (a)(i) above to such Lender or Issuing Lender as a result of any such Taxes shall be made in good faith and in a manner generally consistent with such Lender's or Issuing Lender's standard practice.
(b)If any Lender or Issuing Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or Issuing Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's or
65
Issuing Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender's or Issuing Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or Issuing Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's or Issuing Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender's or Issuing Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.16, this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.
(c)The Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i)Β as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii)Β as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days' prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.
(d)A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraphΒ (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.
(e)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or Issuing Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or Issuing Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to
66
include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.
(f)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, regulations, requests, rules, guidelines or directives implemented after the Closing Date pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act shall be deemed to be a Change in Law; provided however, that any determination by a Lender or Issuing Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender or Issuing Lender due to any such Change in Law shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender's or Issuing Lender's standard practice.
SECTION 2.15.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or Section 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender or Issuing Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

67
applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b)In addition, the Borrower or any Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c)The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(e)Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(f)Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and as reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.
(g)(1) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a resident of the United States of America, each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon request

Any Lender that is a βUnited States Personβ (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two (2) copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. A Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or statement pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.
(2) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
(h)If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or a Guarantor or with respect to which the Borrower or a Guarantor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower or such Guarantor (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or such Guarantor under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or such Guarantor, upon the request of
69
the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or such Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
SECTION 2.17.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.
(a)The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setβoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in the applicable currency.
(b)If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 10.04 payable to the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Revolving Loans, the Term Loans and Letters of Credit, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of (A) principal of the Revolving Loans and Term Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, (B) any Designated Banking Product Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Banking Product Obligations constitute βObligationsβ hereunder, and (C) any Designated Hedging Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Hedging Obligations constitute βObligationsβ hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, Designated Banking Product Obligations constituting Obligations and Designated Hedging Obligations constituting Obligations then due to such parties.
(c)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the
70
account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(d)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d), 2.02(e), 2.04(a), 2.04(b), 8.04 or 10.04(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
SECTION 2.18.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 2.14 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment or filing (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. Nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16.
(b)If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at such time, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii)Β in the case of payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a
71
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

The Upfront Term Loan Fees shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.
SECTION 2.21.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay with respect to each Letter of Credit (i)Β to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders a fee calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility on the daily average LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), to be shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and (ii)Β to each Issuing Lender (with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it), such Issuing Lender's customary fees for issuance, amendments and processing referred to in Section 2.02. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay each Issuing Lender for its account a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination of such Letter of Credit.

Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower and Guarantors after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.23 are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

73
SECTION 2.26.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Defaulting Lenders. (a) If at any time any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, on ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.02(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance and subject to any consents required by such Section) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person.
(b)Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 2.26(a) shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender's outstanding Commitments, Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, and (ii) deliver any documentation evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender's outstanding Commitments, Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Commitments, Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance (including, without limitation, any amounts owed under Section 2.15 due to such replacement occurring on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period), and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate documentation executed by the Borrower in connection with previous Borrowings, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Commitments, Loans and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender; provided that an assignment contemplated by this Section 2.26(b) shall become effective notwithstanding the failure by the Lender being replaced to deliver the Assignment and Acceptance contemplated by this Section 2.26(b), so long as the other actions specified in this Section 2.26(b) shall have been taken.
(c)Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, during such period, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.20(a) and 2.21 (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), provided that (a) to the extent that all or a portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, and (b) to the extent that all or any portion of such LC Exposure cannot be so reallocated and is not Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.26(d)(ii), such fees shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Lenders as their interests appear (and the applicable pro rata payment provisions under this Agreement shall automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section).
(d)If any LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
74
(i)the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, upon notice by the Administrative Agent, and subject in any event to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments; provided that (A) the Revolving Extensions of Credit of each such Non-Defaulting Lender may not in any event exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (B) such reallocation will not constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender and (C) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result thereof will cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; and
(ii)to the extent that any portion (the βunreallocated portionβ) of the Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three (3) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent, (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders in respect of such LC Exposure in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such LC Exposure or (B) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.
(e)In addition to the other conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit, unless:
(i)in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated, as to outstanding and future Letters of Credit, to the Non-Defaulting Lenders as provided in Section 2.26(d)(i), and
(ii)to the extent full reallocation does not occur as provided in clause (i) above, without limiting the provisions of Section 2.26(f), the Borrower Cash Collateralizes the obligations of the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, or makes other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender, or
(iii)to the extent that neither reallocation nor Cash Collateralization occurs pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii), then in the case of a proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit, by an instrument or instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, (A) the Borrower agrees that the face amount of such requested Letter of Credit will be reduced by an amount equal to the portion thereof as to which such Defaulting Lender would otherwise be liable, and (B)
75
the Non-Defaulting Lenders confirm, in their discretion, that their obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and that the applicable pro rata payment provisions under this Agreement will be deemed adjusted to reflect this provision (provided that nothing in this clause (iii) will be deemed to increase the Revolving Commitments of any Lender, nor to constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, nor to cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender).
(f)If any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and if any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Lender may (except to the extent the Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.
(g)Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but shall instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account until (subject to Section 2.26(i)) the termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: First to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders under this Agreement, third to the payment of the default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and seventh after the termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
(h)The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than ten (10) Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26(g) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the
76
Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(i)If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Revolving Lenders, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.26(g)), such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such portions of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders, and/or make such other adjustments, as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Lenders to hold Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, whereupon such Revolving Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and the LC Exposure of each Revolving Lender shall automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued while such Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Revolving Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.
(j)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) any Lender that is an Issuing Lender hereunder may not be replaced in its capacity as an Issuing Lender at any time that it has a Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit and (y) the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 8.05.
SECTION 2.27.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Currency Equivalents.
(a)The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of (x) the LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency based on the Exchange Rate (i) as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower and (ii) on or about the date of the related notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (y) any other amount to be converted into Dollars in accordance with the provisions hereof at the time of such conversion.
(b)If after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount, the LC Exposure exceeds 105% of the LC Commitment, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.02(j)(ii) in an amount equal to such excess.
SECTION 2.28.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Extension of the Revolving Facility.
77
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an βExtension Offerβ) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders holding Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender's Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings)) (each, an βExtensionβ, and each group of Revolving Commitments, as so extended, as well as the original Revolving Commitments not so extended, being a βtrancheβ; any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolving Commitments from the tranche of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Event of Default or event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders (the βExtension Offer Dateβ), (ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Commitment extended pursuant to an Extension (an βExtended Revolving Commitmentβ), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such tranche on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other tranche with a later maturity date than such tranche and (3) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and (4) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than two different maturity dates, (iii) if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments in respect of which Revolving Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Revolving Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (iv) if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments in respect of which Revolving Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall be less than the maximum aggregate
78
principal amount of Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Borrower may require each Revolving Lender that does not accept such Extension Offer to assign pursuant to Section 10.02 no later than forty-five (45) days after the Extension Offer Date its pro rata share of the outstanding Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans and/or participations in Letters of Credit (as applicable) offered to be extended pursuant to such Extension Offer to one or more assignees which have agreed to such assignment and to extend the applicable Revolving Facility Maturity Date; provided that (1) each Revolving Lender that does not respond affirmatively within thirty (30) days of the Extension Offer Date shall be deemed not to have accepted such Extension Offer, (2) each assigning Revolving Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans and funded participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (3) the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 10.02(b) shall be paid by the Borrower or such assignee and (4) the assigning Revolving Lender shall continue to be entitled to the rights under Section 10.04 for any period prior to the effectiveness of such assignment, (v) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing and (vi) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower.
(b)With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 and (ii) each Extension Offer shall specify the minimum amount of Revolving Commitments to be tendered, which shall be a minimum amount approved by the Administrative Agent (a βMinimum Extension Conditionβ). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2.11, 2.12, 2.17 and 8.08) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section.
(c)The consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. No consent of any Lender shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof) (or, in the case of an Extension pursuant to clause (iv) of Section 2.28(a), the consent of the assignee agreeing to the assignment of one or more Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans and/or participations in Letters of Credit) and (B) the consent of each Issuing Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, an βExtension Amendmentβ) with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Revolving
79
Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section. In addition, if so provided in such Extension Amendment and with the consent of the Issuing Lenders, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to Revolving Commitments not so extended shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Extension Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Real Estate Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).
(d)In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section.

There exists no failure of the Borrower or any applicable Guarantor to comply with such terms, conditions or limitations that gives the FAA, DOT or any applicable Foreign Aviation Authorities the right to terminate, cancel, suspend, withdraw or modify in any materially adverse respect the rights of the Borrower and the other Grantors, as applicable, in any such Primary Route, except to the extent that such failure could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or a Collateral Material Adverse Effect.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to
121
it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.

The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
SECTION 8.04.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse on demand the Administrative Agent for such Lender's Aggregate Exposure Percentage of any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof, not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Guarantors and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount equal to such Lender's Aggregate Exposure Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Guarantors (except such as shall result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct).
SECTION 8.05.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Successor Agents. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (provided no Event of Default or event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing) of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30)Β days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.

SECTION 8.06.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Independent Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
SECTION 8.07.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Advances and Payments.
(a)On the date of each Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with its Revolving Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, hereunder. Should the Administrative Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate if not so reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of reimbursement.
(b)Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (other than amounts to which the Administrative Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19, 8.04 and 10.04), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b). All amounts to be paid to a Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender's correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.
SECTION 8.08.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that, except to the extent this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if it shall, through the exercise either by it or any of its banking Affiliates of a right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or a Guarantor, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender (or any of its banking Affiliates) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans or LC Exposure as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans or LC Exposure is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans or LC Exposure of any other Lender (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the
123
Loans or LC Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender's Loans and LC Exposure and its participation in Loans and LC Exposure of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding and LC Exposure as the principal amount of its Loans and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro-rata, provided that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of participations shall be rescinded (without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Loan or LC Exposure acquired pursuant to this Section or any of its banking Affiliates may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 8.09.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Other Agents. No Agent (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no such Agent shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any such Agent in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. Each such Agent shall be entitled to the benefit of the exculpation and indemnification provided in this Section 8 to the same extent as the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 8.10.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding tax applicable to such payment. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason, or the Administrative Agent has paid over to the Internal Revenue Service applicable withholding tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, without duplication of any indemnification obligations set forth in Section 8.04, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred.
SECTION 8.11.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Appointment by Secured Parties. Each Secured Party that is not a party to this Agreement shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Section 8 and to have acknowledged that the provisions of this Section 8 apply to such Secured Party mutatis mutandis as though it were a party hereto (and any acceptance by such Secured Party of the benefits of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed an acknowledgment of the foregoing).
SECTION 9.
GUARANTY
124
SECTION 9.01.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Guaranty.
(a)Each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of the obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding) (collectively, the βGuaranteed Obligationsβ and the obligations of each Guarantor in respect thereof, its βGuaranty Obligationsβ). Each of the Guarantors further agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and it will remain bound upon this guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations. The Obligations of the Guarantors shall be joint and several. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guaranty hereunder is a primary obligation of such Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety.
(b)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Guarantor under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of any of the Loan Documents; (iv) the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by the Administrative Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; or (vi) the release or substitution of any Collateral or any other Guarantor.
(c)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors further agrees that this guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not just of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or a Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or a Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or to any other Person.
(d)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense that it might have based on a failure to remain informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and of any other Guarantor and any circumstances affecting the ability of the Borrower to perform under this Agreement.
(e)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor's guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any other instrument evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to this guaranty (other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (other than those that constitute unasserted contingent indemnification obligations)). Neither the Administrative
125
Agent nor any of the Lenders makes any representation or warranty in respect to any such circumstances or shall have any duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Guarantor in respect of the management and maintenance of the Obligations.
Upon the occurrence of the Obligations becoming due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise), the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations by the Guarantors upon written demand by the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 9.02.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β No Impairment of Guaranty. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision hereof or thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law.
SECTION 9.03.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Continuation and Reinstatement, etc.
Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, any Lender or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or a Guarantor, or otherwise.
SECTION 9.04.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Subrogation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of an obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding). If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor for the account of the Borrower relating to the Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
SECTION 9.05.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Discharge of Guaranty.
(a)If all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor hereunder shall be sold or otherwise Disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, such
126
guarantee of such Guarantor provided herein shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Person effective as of the time of such sale or Disposition.
(b)In addition, upon the request of the Borrower, the guarantee of any Guarantor that is an Immaterial Subsidiary shall be promptly released; provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that such Subsidiary is an Immaterial Subsidiary; provided further that a Subsidiary that is considered not to be an Immaterial Subsidiary solely pursuant to clause (1) of the proviso of the definition thereof shall, solely for purposes of this clause (b), be considered an Immaterial Subsidiary so long as any applicable guarantee, pledge or other obligation of such Subsidiary with respect to any Refinancing Debt or Junior Secured Debt shall be irrevocably released and discharged substantially simultaneously with the release of such guarantee hereunder.
(c)The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, at the Borrower's expense, such documents as the Borrower or any such Guarantor may reasonably request to evidence the release of the guarantee of such Guarantor provided herein.

For the purposes of this Section 10.02(b), the term βApproved Fundβ means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(iii)Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraphΒ (b)(iv) of this Section 10.02, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Lender and/or a Term Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 10.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.
(iv)The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the βRegisterβ). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no assignment may be made hereunder to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v).
(vi)In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each other Revolving Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and
130
(y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(c)Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraphΒ (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (e), 2.04(a), 2.04(b), 8.04 or 10.04(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(d)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a βParticipantβ) in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans); provided that (A)Β such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B)Β such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C)Β the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the βParticipant Registerβ); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this
131
Agreement or any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower, a Guarantor and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
(ii)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g) and 2.16(h) as though it were a Lender.
(e)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 10.02 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f)Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.
(g)Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to the Borrower in accordance with Section 10.02(b); provided that
(i)Β Β Β Β the assigning Lender and the Borrower purchasing such Lender's Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;
(ii)Β Β Β Β such assignment shall be made pursuant to a Dutch Auction open to all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis;
(iii)Β Β Β Β any Loans assigned to the Borrower shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder;
132
(iv)Β Β Β Β no such assignment may be funded with the proceeds of any Revolving Loans;
(v) Β Β Β Β no Event of Default or event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing;
(vi)Β Β Β Β any non-cash gain in respect of βcancellation of indebtednessβ resulting from the cancellation of any Term Loans purchased by the Borrower shall not increase EBITDAR;
(vii)Β Β Β Β at the time of such assignment the Borrower shall affirm to the assigning Lenders the No Undisclosed MNPI Representation with respect to its directors and officers (and shall affirm that such No Undisclosed MNPI Representation had been true and correct at the commencement of such Dutch Auction);
(viii)Β Β Β Β the assignment to the Borrower and cancellation of Term Loans in connection with a Dutch Auction shall not constitute a mandatory or voluntary payment for purposes of Section 2.12 or 2.13, and shall not be subject to Section 8.08, but the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans purchased pursuant to this Section 10.02(g) and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans shall be reduced pro rata by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans purchased.
SECTION 10.03.Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to keep any information delivered or made available by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors to it confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures, from anyone other than persons employed or retained by such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans, and who are advised by such Lender of the confidential nature of such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any of its Affiliates and their respective agents and advisors (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) or to any other Lender, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority, (d) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender which is not permitted by this Agreement, (e) in connection with any litigation to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates may be a party to the extent reasonably required, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) to such Lender's legal counsel and independent auditors, and (h) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, in each case, subject to the proviso in Section 10.02(f) (with any reference to any assignee or participant set forth in such proviso being deemed to include a reference to such contractual counterparty for purposes of this Section 10.03(h). If any Lender is in any manner requested or required to disclose any of the information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors under clauses (b) or (e) of this Section, such Lender will, to the extent permitted by law, provide the Borrower
133
with prompt notice, to the extent reasonable, so that the Borrower may seek, at its sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy or may waive compliance with this Section.

(a) (i) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse: (A) all reasonable fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP (βXxxxxxx Xxxxxxxβ), special counsel to the Administrative Agent, and any other regulatory or local counsel retained by Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx or the Administrative Agent) associated with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents and (in the case of the Administrative Agent) any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and (B)Β all fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, special counsel to the Administrative Agent, and any other counsel retained by Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx or the Administrative Agent) and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents.

141
any intercreditor agreement pursuant to and as permitted by the terms of this Agreement (any such intercreditor agreement, an βIntercreditor Agreementβ) and such Intercreditor Agreement shall remain outstanding, the rights granted to the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such Intercreditor Agreement.

Β§ 44-14-60 et seq. and establishes a perpetual security interest in the Deed Collateral pursuant to O.C.G.A Β§ 44-14-80 and is given to secure the Obligations. This Deed shall also constitute a security agreement under the Code (as defined herein) as to all that part of the Deed Collateral that constitutes personal property.
AND Grantor hereby covenants with Grantee as follows:
1.Β Β Β Β Definitions. In this Deed, all words and terms not defined herein (including above) shall have the respective meanings and be construed herein as provided in the Credit Agreement. Any reference to a provision of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to incorporate that provision as a part hereof in the same manner and with the same effect as if the
4
same were fully set forth herein unless otherwise expressly stated. References to this βDeedβ shall mean this instrument and any and all renewals, modifications, amendments, supplements, extensions, consolidations, substitutions, spreaders and replacements of this instrument. The term βDefault Rateβ shall mean the rate of interest applicable in the event of Grantor's default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or in the payment of any other amount becoming due under the Credit Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Credit Agreement. The term βObligationsβ shall include, without limitation, (x) βObligationsβ (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (y) any judgment(s) or final decree(s) rendered to collect any money obligations of Grantor to Grantee and/or the Secured Parties and/or to enforce the performance or collection of all rights, remedies, obligations, covenants, agreements, conditions, indemnities, representations, warranties, and other liabilities of Grantor under this Deed or any or all of the other Loan Documents. All references to the term "Obligations" in this Deed are to that term as first defined in this Section unless expressly stated herein to the contrary. The term βObligations Payment Dateβ shall have the definition as set forth in the Security Agreement. Subject to the compliance with O.C.G.A. Section 00-00-000, the obtaining of any judgment by Grantee and/or the Lenders (other than a judgment foreclosing this Deed) and any levy of any execution under any such judgment upon the Deed Collateral shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien, security title and security interest of this Deed upon the Deed Collateral or any part thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Grantee and/or the Lenders hereunder, but such title, interests, liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied. Furthermore, Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Obligations are secured by the Deed Collateral and various other collateral at the time of execution of this Deed. Grantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Deed Collateral, in and of itself, if foreclosed or realized upon, would not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding amount of the Obligations. Accordingly, Grantor acknowledges that it is in Grantor's contemplation that the other collateral pledged to secure the Obligations may be pursued by Grantee in separate proceedings, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in the various states and counties where such collateral may be located and additionally that Grantor will remain liable for any deficiency judgment for any portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations remaining unpaid. Specifically, and without limitation of the foregoing, it is agreed that it is the intent of the parties hereto that in the event of a foreclosure of this Deed, that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations shall not be deemed merged into any foreclosure or exercise of the power of sale, but shall rather remain outstanding to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
2.Β Β Β Β Payment of the Obligations. Grantor shall abide by and comply with each and every covenant and agreement set forth in the Loan Documents.
3.Β Β Β Β Representations and Warranties. Grantor hereby represents and warrants that Grantor is lawfully seized and possessed of a good and marketable fee simple estate in and to the Land and the Improvements, subject to no Liens, except for Permitted Collateral Liens, including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions. Grantor shall forever warrant and defend the title to the Deed Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever except those having rights under the Permitted Collateral Liens, including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions.

All such insurance shall be in such amounts as required by Section 5.03 of the Credit Agreement. Grantor shall promptly notify Grantee of any loss in connection with the Improvements and/or the Personal Property.
6.Β Β Β Β Compliance. Grantor shall comply with (a) all requirements of the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to this Deed and (b) all present and future Liens (including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions) affecting the Deed Collateral, except where such noncompliance, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
7.Β Β Β Β Actions by Grantee to Protect the Deed Collateral; Etc. If Grantor shall fail to (a) effect the insurance required under Section 5 herein, (b) make any other payment required under this Deed or (c) comply with any other term or covenant of this Deed, which with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, upon reasonable prior written notice to Grantor, Grantee may effect, pay or cure the same, as the case may be.

(ii)Β Β Β Β sell and dispose of the Deed Collateral (or any part thereof) at one or more public sale or sales, at the usual place for conducting sales at the courthouse in the county where the Deed Collateral or any part thereof may be located in order to pay the Obligations, to the highest bidder for cash, first advertising the time, terms and place of such sale by publishing a notice thereof once a week for four consecutive weeks immediately preceding the date of sale (without regard to the actual number of days) in a newspaper in which sheriff's advertisements are published in said county, all other notice being hereby waived by Grantor; and Grantee may thereupon execute and deliver to the purchaser at said sale a sufficient conveyance of the Deed Collateral in fee simple, which conveyance may contain recitals as to the happening of the default upon which the execution of the power of sale, herein granted, depends, and said recitals shall be presumptive evidence that all preliminary acts prerequisite to said sale and deed were in all things duly complied with; and Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints Grantee or its assigns agent and attorney-in-fact to make such recitals, sale and conveyance, and all of the acts of such attorney-in-fact are hereby ratified, and Grantor agrees that such recitals shall be binding and conclusive upon Grantor and that the conveyance to be made by Grantee, or its assigns (and in the event of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, then as to such conveyance) shall, to the extent permitted by law, be effectual to bar all right, title and interest, equity of redemption, including all statutory redemption, homestead, dower, curtesy and all other exemptions of Grantor, or its successors in interest, in and to said Deed Collateral; and Grantor agrees that in case of a sale, as herein provided, Grantor or any person in possession under Grantor shall then become and be tenants holding over, and shall forthwith deliver possession to the purchaser at such sale, or be summarily dispossessed in accordance with the provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over; the power and agency hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable by death or otherwise, and are in addition to any and all other remedies which Grantee may have at law or in equity. Any portion of the Deed Collateral sold pursuant to this Deed may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be sold in one parcel as an
7
entirety, or in such parcels and in such manner or order as Grantee in its sole discretion, may elect, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of Georgia. One or more exercises of the powers herein granted shall not extinguish or exhaust the power unless the Obligations are paid in full or the Deed Collateral is sold. Grantee, or its designee, may bid for and acquire the Deed Collateral or any part thereof at any sale made under or by virtue of this Deed and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting against the purchase price the unpaid amounts due and owing in respect of any Obligations after deducting from the sales price the reasonable expenses of the sale actually incurred by Grantee and the reasonable costs of the action or proceedings actually incurred by Grantee and any other sums that Grantee is authorized to deduct under this Deed or applicable law.
Grantee, and its agents and representatives, shall have the right to enter upon all or any portion of the Land or the Improvements to exercise any remedy specified in any Loan Document.
(b)Β Β Β Β Upon, or at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not Grantee has instituted an action in foreclosure, Grantee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for the Deed Collateral, and Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to contest the appointment of such receiver and consents thereto. Such appointment may be made either before or after a foreclosure sale, without notice, without regard to the solvency or insolvency of Grantor at the time of application for such receiver and without regard to the then value of the Deed Collateral, and whether or not the same is occupied as a homestead, and without bond being required of the applicant. Grantee hereunder or any agent of Grantee may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall have all powers and duties prescribed by applicable law, including, without limitation, the powers to: (i) collect the rents of the Deed Collateral during the pendency of any foreclosure suit as well as during any other times when Grantor or its devisees, legatees, heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, or assigns, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents; (ii) to extend or modify any then existing Space Leases and to make new Space Leases, which extensions, modifications and new Space Leases may provide for terms to expire, or for options to lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the maturity date of any Obligations and beyond the date of issuance of a deed or deeds to a purchaser or purchasers at a foreclosure sale, it being understood and agreed that any such Space Leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Grantor and all persons whose interests in the Deed Collateral are subject to the lien hereof and upon the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any discharge or satisfaction of the Obligations, satisfaction of any foreclosure decree or deficiency judgment, or issuance of any xxxx of sale or deed to any purchaser; (iii) to exercise all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Deed Collateral during the whole of such period; and (iv) as may otherwise be granted by the court or under applicable law. Except as otherwise specified in the Credit Agreement, the receiver shall, upon receipt of authority from the court and upon application to the court from Grantee, apply the net income in his or her hands in payment in whole or in part to: (1) the Obligations secured hereby or by any judgment or decree foreclosing this Deed, or any imposition or lien which may be or become superior to the lien hereof or of such judgment or decree, provided such application is made prior to foreclosure sale; (2) all rents due or which may become due under the superior lease if this is a
8
leasehold mortgage; and (3) the deficiency judgment, in case of a foreclosure sale and deficiency judgment. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Grantee shall be entitled to the continued possession and control of any cash, deposits or instruments at the time held or payable or deliverable under the terms of this Deed to Grantee and shall apply such proceeds in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence.
(c)Β Β Β Β In any sale under any provision of this Deed or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court, the Deed Collateral, to the extent permitted by law, may be sold in one or more parcels, or as an entirety, and in such order as Grantee may elect, without regard to the right of Grantor or any Person claiming under Grantor to the marshalling of assets. The purchaser at such sale shall take title to the property so sold free and discharged of the estate of Grantor therein, the purchaser being hereby discharged from all liability to see to the application of the purchase money; provided, however that if Grantee is the purchaser at such sale, Grantee shall not be so discharged but instead shall apply the purchase money in accordance with this Deed and the Credit Agreement. Any Person, including, without limitation, Grantee, may purchase at any such sale.
9.Β Β Β Β Expenses. In any foreclosure or partial foreclosure of the lien, security title and security interest of this Deed, there shall be allowed and included, as additional indebtedness, all reasonable expenses actually paid or incurred by or on behalf of Grantee in the protection of the Deed Collateral and the exercise of Grantee's rights and remedies hereunder. Such expenses shall include, without limitation: reasonable attorney's fees actually incurred (and not as a percentage of indebtedness pursuant to O.C.G.A. Section 13-1-11), appraiser's fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographer's charges, publication costs, survey costs, and costs of procuring all abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title insurance policies, and any similar data and assurances with respect to title to the Deed Collateral as Grantee may reasonably deem necessary either to prosecute or prepare for such foreclosure or to evidence to bidders at any sale pursuant to such decree the true condition of the title to or value of the Deed Collateral. All such expenses shall be due and payable by Grantor upon demand with interest thereon at the Default Rate.
10.Β Β Β Β RightΒ ofΒ Possession. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, Grantor shall, immediately upon Grantee's demand, surrender to Grantee, and Grantee shall be entitled to take actual possession of the Deed Collateral or any part thereof, personally or by its agent or attorneys. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantee may enter upon and take and maintain possession or may apply to the court in which a foreclosure is pending to be placed in possession of all or any part of the Deed Collateral, together with all documents, books, records, papers, and accounts of Grantor or the then owner of the Deed Collateral relating thereto, and exclude Grantor, such owner, and any agents and servants from the Deed Collateral. As attorney-in-fact or agent of Grantor or such owner, or in its own name Grantee may hold, operate, manage, and control all or any part of the Deed Collateral, either personally or by its agents. Grantee shall have full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as it may deem proper or necessary to enforce the payment or security of the rents, issues, deposits, profits, and avails of the Deed Collateral, including actions for recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer, and actions in distress for rent, all without notice to Grantor.

12.Β Β Β Β Withdrawal or Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case Grantee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Deed by foreclosure, entry or otherwise or in the event Grantee shall have commenced advertising the intended exercise of the right of foreclosure provided hereunder, and such proceeding or advertisement shall have been withdrawn, discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to Grantee, then in every such case (i) Grantor and Grantee shall be restored to their former positions and rights, (ii) all rights, powers and remedies of Grantee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken, (iii) each and every Default declared or occurring prior or subsequent to such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment shall and shall be deemed to be a continuing Default, and (iv) this Deed, the Obligations and all other indebtedness secured by this Deed, or any other instrument concerned therewith, shall not be and shall not be deemed to have been reinstated or otherwise affected by such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment, and Grantor hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law now provided (including, without limitation, Official Code of Georgia Section 44-14-85), or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the above.
13.Β Β Β Β WaiverΒ ofΒ StatutoryΒ Rights. GRANTOR SHALL NOT APPLY FOR OR AVAIL ITSELF OF ANY APPRAISEMENT, VALUATION, REDEMPTION, STAY, EXTENSION, OR EXEMPTION LAWS, OR ANY SO-CALLED βMORATORIUM LAWS,β NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ENACTED, IN ORDER TO PREVENT OR HINDER THE ENFORCEMENT OR FORECLOSURE OF THIS DEED, AND GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF SUCH LAWS.

GRANTOR EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT OF GRANTEE TO ACCELERATE THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED HEREBY AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE POWER OF ATTORNEY GIVEN HEREIN TO GRANTEE TO SELL THE DEED COLLATERAL BY NON-JUDICIAL FORECLOSURE UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT WITHOUT ANY JUDICIAL HEARING AND WITHOUT ANY NOTICE
10
OTHER THAN SUCH NOTICE AS IS SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED TO BE GIVEN UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THIS DEED OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
14.Β Β Β Β Effect of Judgment. The obtaining of any judgment by Grantee and any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Deed Collateral shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien, security title and security interest created by this Deed in or upon the Deed Collateral or any part thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Grantee hereunder, but such liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied.

18.Β Β Β Β DeedΒ inΒ Trust. If title to the Deed Collateral or any part thereof is now or hereafter becomes vested in a trustee, any prohibition or restriction against the creation of any lien on the Deed Collateral shall be construed as a similar prohibition or restriction against the creation of any lien on or security interest in the beneficial interest of such trust.
19.Β Β Β Β Amendments; Etc. This Deed cannot be terminated, cancelled, modified, amended, supplemented, waived or discharged except by an instrument in writing, duly acknowledged in form for recording signed by Grantor and Grantee.
20.Β Β Β Β Successors and Assigns.

The illegality, invalidity and/or unenforceability of any provision of this Deed in any jurisdiction shall not affect the legality, validity and/or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction.
22.Β Β Β Β Merger. This Deed, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding between Grantor and Grantee with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Deed, and any and all other agreements, understandings and
11
statements (oral or written) between Grantor and Grantee in connection therewith are merged into this Deed, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
23.Β Β Β Β Future Advances. This Deed shall secure the payment of all loans, monies, credit and other Obligations, whether the entire amount shall have been advanced at the date hereof or at a later date, or having been advanced, shall have been repaid in part and further advances made at a later date, and whether or not related to the original advances, together with the specified interest thereon all in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. It is understood that at any time before the cancellation and release of this Deed, the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including the terms of repayment, may from time to time be modified or amended in writing by the parties thereto to include or provide for additional or future advances and this Deed shall secure all such additional or future advances. This Deed secures repayment of, among other things: (1) revolving credit advances which may be extended under the Credit Agreement, and (2) various advances made by the Lenders, or any Lender, as a result of draws from time to time under various Letters of Credit to be issued under the terms of the Credit Agreement for the account of Grantor whether such obligations are repayable immediately or are treated as revolving credit advances. The priority of the lien of this Deed securing all advances referred to in this Section shall be the same as the priority of the lien of this Deed securing Obligations outstanding on the date hereof.
24.Β Β Β Β Conflict. In the event of express and direct contradiction between any of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and any of the provisions contained herein, the provisions in the Credit Agreement shall control.
25.Β Β Β Β Last Dollar. The Obligations secured by this Deed shall be reduced only by the last and final sums that Grantor repays with respect to the Loans and shall not be reduced by any intervening repayments of the Loans by Grantor, except as may otherwise be permitted herein. Such intervening payments shall instead be deemed to reduce only such portions of the Obligations as are not secured by this Deed. As of the date of recording of this Deed, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans exceeds the amount of the maximum principal amount secured by this Deed, so that the maximum principal amount secured by this Deed represents only a portion of the Obligations actually outstanding.
26.Β Β Β Β Release. (a) This Deed shall terminate when the Obligations Payment Date shall have occurred. Upon termination of this Deed, Grantee shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Grantor (i) an instrument, in proper form for recording, without warranty, reconveying to Grantor the Property and (ii) any other termination statements or instruments which Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon such recording, this Deed and the estate, right and interest of Grantee in and to the Property shall be cancelled and thereafter be of no further force and effect.
(b)Β Β Β Β Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time to time at the request of Grantor, prior to the occurrence of the Obligations Payment Date in connection with any sale or transfer of such Deed Collateral permitted under the Loan Documents or upon the effectiveness of any written consent by Grantee or the requisite Lenders
12
as provided under the Credit Agreement, to the release of the lien and security interest granted hereby in any or all of the Deed Collateral, the estate, right and interest of Grantee in and to the Deed Collateral shall be automatically cancelled and reconveyed to Grantor and Grantee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Grantor (i) an instrument, in proper form for recording, without warranty, reconveying to Grantor such portion of the Deed Collateral and (ii) any other termination statements or instruments which Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon such recording, the estate, right and interest of Grantee in and to such portion of the Deed Collateral shall be cancelled and thereafter be of no further force and effect.
27.Β Β Β Β Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code. It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Deed shall constitute a βsecurity agreementβ within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Georgia, or if the perfection or nonperfection or priority of a Lien in any Deed Collateral is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in another jurisdiction, such other Uniform Commercial Code (the βCodeβ) with respect to any part of the Deed Collateral which may or might now or hereafter be deemed to be Personal Property. All of Grantor's right, title and interest in the Personal Property is hereby assigned to Grantee to secure the payment of the Obligations. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Grantee shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Code, including without limitation the right to take immediate and exclusive possession of the Personal Property or any part thereof. The remedies of Grantee hereunder are cumulative and the exercise of any one or more of the remedies provided for herein or under the Code shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the other remedies of Grantee, including having the Personal Property deemed part of the realty upon any foreclosure so long as any part of the Obligations remains unsatisfied. Grantor hereby authorizes Grantee to cause to be recorded in the County where the Land is located, as well as the applicable offices of the applicable jurisdiction, such financing statements and fixture filings as shall be necessary in order to perfect and preserve the priority of Grantee's lien upon the Personal Property.
28.Β Β Β Β Grantee's Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Without duplication of any fees or expenses provided for under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Grantor agrees to pay to Grantee within 30 days of written demand (including back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and other reasonable charges of its counsel (including, without limitation, local and special counsel) and of any experts, agents or appraisers, which Grantee may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Deed, (ii) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon any of the Deed Collateral, (iii) the exercise, enforcement or protection of any of the rights of Grantee hereunder, or (iv) the failure of Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.
(b)Β Β Β Β Without duplication of any indemnification obligations provided for under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Grantor agrees to indemnify Grantee and the other Secured Parties and their Indemnitees against, and hold each of them harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements and other reasonable charges of counsel, incurred by or asserted against any of them arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery, or performance of this Deed or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating hereto or
13
to the Deed Collateral, whether or not the Secured Parties or any of their Indemnitees is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to Grantee, the other Secured Parties or any such 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 bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Grantee, the other Secured Parties or such Indemnitee.
(c)Β Β Β Β Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby. The provisions of this Section 28 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations or the occurrence of the Obligations Payment Date or the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Deed. All amounts due under this Section 28 shall be payable within 30 days of written demand (including back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request) to Grantor given in accordance with Section 16 hereof.
29.Β Β Β Β Additional Provisions. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary:
(a)Β Β Β Β Where any provision of this Deed is inconsistent with any provision of Georgia law regulating the creation or enforcement of a lien, security title, or security interest in real or personal property including, but not by way of limitation, the Code, as amended, modified and/or replaced from time to time, the provisions of Georgia law shall take precedence over the provisions of this Deed, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provisions of this Deed that can be construed in a manner consistent with Georgia law. The words βlien of this Deedβ or words of similar import shall mean the lien, security title and security interest created and conveyed by this Deed.
(b)Β Β Β Β To the extent the laws of the State of Georgia limit (i) the availability of the exercise of any of the remedies set forth in this Deed, including without limitation the remedies involving a power of sale on the part of Grantee and/or the Lenders and the right of Grantee and the Lenders to exercise self-help in connection with the enforcement of the terms of this Deed, or (ii) the enforcement of waivers and indemnities made by Grantor, such remedies, waivers, or indemnities shall be exercisable or enforceable, any provisions in this Deed to the contrary notwithstanding, if, and to the extent, permitted by the laws in force at the time of the exercise of such remedies or the enforcement of such waivers or indemnities without regard to the enforceability of such remedies, waivers or indemnities at the time of the execution and delivery of this Deed.
(c)Β Β Β Β Nothing in this Deed shall be deemed to be a waiver by Grantor of the time limitations on issuance of process set out in the Official Code of Georgia or the Rules and Regulations of the State of Georgia.
(d)Β Β Β Β To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the lien, security interest and security title of this Deed with respect to any future advances, modifications, extensions, and renewals referred to herein and made from time to time shall have the same priority to which this Deed otherwise would be entitled as of the date this Deed is executed and recorded without

regard to the fact that any such future advance, modification, extension, or renewal may occur after the Deed is executed.
(e)Β Β Β Β Even though the lien, security title and security interest of this Deed shall be released from the Deed Collateral subject to Article I, any of the terms and provisions of this Deed that are expressly intended to survive, shall nevertheless survive the release or satisfaction of this Deed whether voluntarily granted by Grantee or the Lenders, as a result of a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of this Deed or in the event a deed in lieu of foreclosure is granted by Grantor to Grantee and/or the Lenders.
(f)Β Β Β Β Any receiver appointed under this Deed shall have all of the usual powers and duties of receivers pursuant to Georgia common and statutory law, including, but not limited to, Official Code of Georgia Sections 9-8-1 through 9-8-14, as amended, modified and/or replaced from time to time.
(g)Β Β Β Β It is the intent of the parties to secure payment of the Obligations. The total amount of the Obligations may decrease or increase from time to time. It is expressly agreed that the Obligations may from time to time be reduced to a zero balance without such repayment operating to extinguish or release the lien, security title and security interest created by this Deed. This Deed shall remain in full force and effect as to any subsequent future advances made after the zero balance without loss of any priority until the Obligations are paid in full and satisfied and all agreements between Grantor and Grantee for further advances have been terminated and this Deed released of record.
30.Β Β Β Β ComplianceΒ withΒ Applicable Law. Anything elsewhere herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding,
(a)    Non-Residential Status of Secured Deed Collateral. Grantor represents and warrants to Grantee and the other Secured Parties that none of the Deed Collateral is to be used as a dwelling place by Grantor at the time this Deed is entered into and, accordingly, the notice requirement of O.C.G.A. §§44-14-162.2 and 44-14-162.3 shall not be applicable to any exercise of the power of sale contained in this Deed.
(b)Β Β Β Β Commercial Transaction. The interest of Grantee hereunder and the obligations of Grantor for the Obligations arise from the βcommercial transactionβ within the meaning of O.C.G.A. Β§ 44-14-260(1). Accordingly, pursuant to O.C.G.A. Β§ 00-00-000, Grantor waives any and all rights which Grantor may have to notice prior to seizure by Grantee of any interest in personal property of Grantor which constitutes part of the Deed Collateral, whether such seizure is by writ of possession or otherwise, and also waives the requirement for any bond in connection with any writ of immediate possession sought by Grantee.
(c)Β Β Β Β All agreements between Grantor and Grantee are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Grantee exceed the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Georgia. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or in the Loan Documents at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve the payment of interest exceeding the highest rate of interest permitted by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem
15
applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Georgia; and if for any reason whatsoever Grantee shall ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful such interest shall be applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments of the Obligations (whether or not then due and payable) and not to the payment of interest.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Mortgaged Property unto Mortgagee forever, subject only to the Permitted Collateral Liens, the Liens set forth as exceptions in Schedule B to the mortgagee's title insurance policy delivered to Mortgagee contemporaneously herewith by First American Title Insurance Company (collectively, the βPermitted Title Exceptionsβ) and to satisfaction and release as provided in Section 26 herein.
If and when the Obligations Payment Date (as defined in the Security Agreement) shall have occurred, then this Mortgage and the estate, right and interest of Mortgagee in and to the Mortgaged Property shall be released from the lien and security interest created hereby pursuant to the terms of Section 26 herein, and shall thereafter be of no further force and effect.
This Mortgage establishes a perpetual security interest in the Mortgaged Property and shall also constitute a security agreement under the Code (as defined herein) as to all that part of the Mortgaged Property that constitutes personal property.
AND Mortgagor hereby covenants with Mortgagee as follows:
1Β Β Β Β Definitions. In this Mortgage, all words and terms not defined herein shall have the respective meanings and be construed herein as provided in the Credit Agreement. Any reference to a provision of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to incorporate that provision as a part hereof in the same manner and with the same effect as if the same were fully set forth herein unless otherwise expressly stated. References to this βMortgageβ shall mean this instrument and any and all renewals, modifications, amendments, supplements, extensions, consolidations, substitutions, spreaders and replacements of this instrument. The term βDefault Rateβ shall mean the rate of interest applicable in the event of Mortgagor's default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or in the payment of any other amount becoming due under the Credit Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Credit Agreement. The term βObligationsβ shall include, without limitation, (x) βObligationsβ (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (y) any judgment(s) or final decree(s) rendered to collect any money obligations of Mortgagor to Mortgagee and/or the Secured Parties and/or to enforce the performance or collection of all rights, remedies, obligations, covenants, agreements, conditions, indemnities, representations, warranties, and other liabilities of Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any or all of the other Loan Documents. All references to the term "Obligations" in this Mortgage are to that term as first defined in this Section unless expressly stated herein to the contrary. The term βObligations Payment Dateβ shall have the definition as set forth in the Security Agreement. The obtaining of any judgment by Mortgagee and/or the Lenders (other than a judgment foreclosing this Mortgage) and any levy of any execution under any such judgment upon the Mortgaged Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien and security interest of this Mortgage upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Mortgagee and/or the Lenders hereunder, but such interests, liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied. Furthermore, Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that the Obligations are secured by the Mortgaged Property and various other collateral at the time of execution of this Mortgage. Mortgagor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Mortgaged Property, in and of itself, if foreclosed or realized upon, would not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding amount of the Obligations. Accordingly, Mortgagor acknowledges that it is in Mortgagor's contemplation that the other collateral pledged to secure the Obligations may be pursued by Mortgagee in separate proceedings, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in the various states and counties where such collateral may be located and additionally that Mortgagor will remain liable for any deficiency judgment for any portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations remaining unpaid. Specifically, and without limitation of the foregoing, it is agreed that it is the intent of the parties hereto that in the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage, that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations shall not be deemed merged into any foreclosure or exercise of the power of sale, but shall rather remain outstanding to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
2.Β Β Β Β Payment of the Obligations. Mortgagor shall abide by and comply with each and every covenant and agreement set forth in the Loan Documents.
3.Β Β Β Β Representations and Warranties. Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants that Mortgagor is lawfully seized and possessed of a good and marketable fee simple estate in and to the Land and the Improvements, subject to no Liens, except for Permitted Collateral Liens, including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions. Mortgagor shall forever warrant and defend the title to the Mortgaged Property against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever except those having rights under the Permitted Collateral Liens, including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions.
4.Β Β Β Β Further Assurances; Payments. (a) Mortgagor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, from time to time within 10 days of demand therefor, such further instruments as Mortgagee may reasonably require to accomplish the purposes of this Mortgage (collectively, the βFurther Instrumentsβ).

Mortgagor shall promptly pay to Mortgagee all required costs and expenses (including, without limitation, mortgage registry taxes, filing, registration and recording taxes, fees, charges, duties, stamps and imposts) related to such filing, registration and/or recording.
(c) Mortgagor shall pay (i) all mortgage registry taxes, filing, registration and recording taxes, fees and charges, all re-filing, re-registration and re-recording taxes, fees and charges required by applicable law and all other reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with (1) the execution, delivery, acknowledgment and/or recordation of this Mortgage and each Further Instrument and/or (2) the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, title insurance premiums, title examination charges and reasonable legal, consulting, engineering, appraisal, survey and inspection fees, expenses and disbursements actually incurred by Mortgagee) and (ii) all federal, state, county and municipal stamps, mortgage registry and other taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges in connection with the execution, delivery, acknowledgement and/or recordation of this Mortgage and each Further Instrument.
5.Β Β Β Β Insurance. Mortgagor shall cause the Improvements and the Personal Property to be kept insured (a) as required by and in accordance with Section 5.03 of the Credit Agreement, and (b) if the Land or any portion thereof is located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, or otherwise, against flood risks. All such insurance shall be in such amounts as required by Section 5.03 of the Credit Agreement. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee of any loss in connection with the Improvements and/or the Personal Property.
6.Β Β Β Β Compliance. Mortgagor shall comply with (a) all requirements of the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to this Mortgage and (b) all present and future Liens (including, without limitation, the Permitted Title Exceptions) affecting the
Mortgaged Property, except where such noncompliance, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
7.Β Β Β Β Actions by Mortgagee to Protect the Mortgaged Property; Etc. If Mortgagor shall fail to (a) effect the insurance required under Section 5 herein, (b) make any other payment required under this Mortgage or (c) comply with any other term or covenant of this Mortgage, which with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, upon reasonable prior written notice to Mortgagor, Mortgagee may effect, pay or cure the same, as the case may be.

In any action and/or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage and/or to recover and/or collect the Obligations (or any portion thereof), the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and/or allowances shall prevail unaffected by this covenant.
8.Β Β Β Β Remedies; Etc. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagee may, to the extent permitted by law, personally or, to the extent permitted by law, by agents, with or without entry, if Mortgagee shall deem it advisable:
(i)Β Β Β Β proceed to protect and enforce its rights under any of the Loan Documents by suit for specific performance of any covenant herein contained or contained in any of the other Loan Documents, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted or granted in any of the other Loan Documents, or for the foreclosure of this Mortgage and the sale of the Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, or for the enforcement of any other right as Mortgagee shall deem most effectual for such purpose; or
(ii)Β Β Β Β sell and dispose of the Mortgaged Property (or any part thereof) at one or more public sale or sales, in accordance with the then applicable laws of the State of Minnesota, at the usual place for conducting sales at the courthouse in the county where the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof may be located in order to pay the Obligations, to the highest bidder, first giving notice of and advertising the time, terms and place of such sale in accordance with the then applicable laws of the State of Minnesota, all other notice being hereby waived by Mortgagor; and the purchaser at said sale or sales shall be entitled to receive a sheriff's certificate of sale from the sheriff which conducts the sale or sales, which shall, to the extent permitted by law, be effectual to bar all right, title and interest, including all statutory, homestead, dower, curtesy and all other exemptions of Mortgagor, or its successors in interest, in and to said Mortgaged Property (except for the statutory right of redemption). Any portion of the Mortgaged Property sold pursuant to this Mortgage may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be sold in one parcel as an entirety, or in such parcels and in such manner or order as Mortgagee in its sole discretion, may elect, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of Minnesota. One or more exercises of the powers herein granted shall not
extinguish or exhaust said powers unless the Obligations are paid in full or the Mortgaged Property is all sold. Mortgagee, or its designee, may bid for and acquire the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof at any sale made under or by virtue of this Mortgage and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting against the purchase price the unpaid amounts due and owing in respect of any Obligations.
Mortgagee, and its agents and representatives, shall have the right to enter upon all or any portion of the Land or the Improvements to exercise any remedy specified in any Loan Document.
(b)Β Β Β Β Upon, or at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not Mortgagee has instituted an action in foreclosure, Mortgagee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to contest the appointment of such receiver and consents thereto. Such appointment may be made either before or after a foreclosure sale, without notice, without regard to the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor at the time of application for such receiver and without regard to the then value of the Mortgaged Property, and whether or not the same is occupied as a homestead, and without bond being required of the applicant. Mortgagee hereunder or any agent of Mortgagee may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall have all powers and duties prescribed by applicable law, including, without limitation, the powers to: (i) collect the rents of the Mortgaged Property during the pendency of any foreclosure suit or proceeding and during any applicable statutory redemption period, as well as during any other times when Mortgagor or its devisees, legatees, heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, or assigns, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents; (ii) to extend or modify any then existing Space Leases and to make new Space Leases, which extensions, modifications and new Space Leases may provide for terms to expire, or for options to lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the maturity date of any Obligations and beyond the date of issuance of a sheriff's certificate or certificates of sale to a purchaser or purchasers at a foreclosure sale, it being understood and agreed that any such Space Leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Mortgagor and all persons whose interests in the Mortgaged Property are subject to the lien hereof and upon the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any discharge or satisfaction of the Obligations, satisfaction of any foreclosure or deficiency judgment, or issuance of any xxxx of sale or sheriff's certificate of sale to any purchaser; (iii) to exercise all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Mortgaged Property during the whole of such period; and (iv) as may otherwise be granted by the court or under applicable law. The receiver shall, upon receipt of authority from the court and upon application to the court from Mortgagee, apply the net income in his or her hands first as required by Minn. Stat. Β§ 576.01, Subd. 2, and then, except as otherwise specified in the Credit Agreement, in whole or in part to: (1) the Obligations secured hereby or by any judgment or decree foreclosing this Mortgage, or any imposition or lien which may be or become superior to the lien hereof or of such judgment or decree, provided such application is made prior to foreclosure sale; (2) all rents due or which may become due under the superior lease if this is a leasehold mortgage; and (3) the deficiency judgment, in case of a foreclosure sale and deficiency judgment. Notwithstanding the appointment of any receiver or
other custodian, Mortgagee shall be entitled to the continued possession and control of any cash, deposits or instruments at the time held or payable or deliverable under the terms of this Mortgage to Mortgagee and shall apply such proceeds in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence.
(c)Β Β Β Β In any sale under any provision of this Mortgage or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court, the Mortgaged Property, to the extent permitted by law, may be sold in one or more parcels, or as an entirety, and in such order as Mortgagee may elect, without regard to the right of Mortgagor or any Person claiming under Mortgagor to the marshalling of assets. The purchaser at such sale shall take title to the property so sold free and discharged of the estate of Mortgagor therein (other than statutory rights of redemption), the purchaser being hereby discharged from all liability to see to the application of the purchase money; provided, however that if Mortgagee is the purchaser at such sale, Mortgagee shall not be so discharged but instead shall apply the purchase money in accordance with this Mortgage and the Credit Agreement. Any Person, including, without limitation, Mortgagee, may purchase at any such sale.
9.Β Β Β Β Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in any foreclosure or partial foreclosure of the lien and security interest of this Mortgage, there shall be allowed and included, as additional indebtedness, all reasonable expenses actually paid or incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee in the protection of the Mortgaged Property and the exercise of Mortgagee's rights and remedies hereunder. Such expenses shall include, without limitation: reasonable attorney's fees actually incurred, appraiser's fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographer's charges, publication costs, survey costs, and costs of procuring all abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title insurance policies, and any similar data and assurances with respect to title to the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee may reasonably deem necessary either to prosecute or prepare for such foreclosure or to evidence to bidders at any sale pursuant to such decree the true condition of the title to or value of the Mortgaged Property. All such expenses shall be due and payable by Mortgagor upon demand with interest thereon at the Default Rate and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, may be added to the amount required to redeem the Mortgaged Property after a foreclosure sale.
10.Β Β Β Β RightΒ ofΒ Possession. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, Mortgagor shall, immediately upon Mortgagee's demand, surrender to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall be entitled to take actual possession of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, personally or by its agent or attorneys. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee may enter upon and take and maintain possession or may apply to the court in which a foreclosure is pending to be placed in possession of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, together with all documents, books, records, papers, and accounts of Mortgagor or the then owner of the Mortgaged Property relating thereto, and exclude Mortgagor, such owner, and any agents and servants from the Mortgaged Property. As attorney-in-fact or agent of Mortgagor or such owner, or in its own name Mortgagee may hold, operate, manage, and control all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, either personally or by its agents. Mortgagee shall have full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as it may deem proper or necessary to enforce the payment or security of the rents, issues, deposits, profits, and avails of the Mortgaged Property, including
actions for recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer, and actions in distress for rent, all without notice to Mortgagor.
11.Β Β Β Β Application of Proceeds.

This Mortgage, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding between Mortgagor and Mortgagee with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Mortgage, and any and all other agreements, understandings and statements (oral or written) between Mortgagor and Mortgagee in connection therewith are merged into this Mortgage, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
23.Β Β Β Β Future Advances.Β Β Β Β (a)Β Β Β Β To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Mortgage shall secure the payment of all loans, monies, credit and other Obligations,
whether the entire amount shall have been advanced at the date hereof or at a later date, or having been advanced, shall have been repaid in part and further advances made at a later date, and whether or not related to the original advances, together with the specified interest thereon all in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. It is understood that at any time before the cancellation and release and/or satisfaction of this Mortgage, the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including the terms of repayment, may from time to time be modified or amended in writing by the parties thereto to include or provide for additional or future advances and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, this Mortgage shall secure all such additional or future advances. This Mortgage secures repayment of, among other things: (1) revolving line of credit advances which may be extended under the Credit Agreement, and (2) various advances made by the Lenders, or any Lender, as a result of draws from time to time under various Letters of Credit to be issued under the terms of the Credit Agreement for the account of Mortgagor whether such obligations are repayable immediately or are treated as revolving line of credit advances. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the priority of the lien of this Mortgage securing all advances referred to in this Section shall be the same as the priority of the lien of this Mortgage securing Obligations outstanding on the date hereof.
(b)Β Β Β Β The maximum principal indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is equal to Thirty Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($32,200,000) (the βMaximum Principal Amountβ), which, for the purposes of Minn. Stat. Β§ 287.05, subd. 3, and Β§ 507.325, includes a revolving line of credit under which advances, payments and readvances may be made from time to time, in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The maximum amount of said line of credit which may be secured by this Mortgage at any one time is the Maximum Principal Amount. Mortgagor hereby agrees that, if the outstanding, unpaid balance of the revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement is ever reduced to zero, novation shall not be deemed to have occurred, and the lien and security interest hereof shall be deemed to remain in full force and effect to secure any future advances made under said revolving line of credit .
(c)Β Β Β Β To the extent that this Mortgage secures future advances, the amounts of some such future advances cannot currently be determined. The acceptance by Mortgagee of this Mortgage constitutes an acknowledgment by Mortgagee that Mortgagee is aware of the provisions of Minn. Stat. Β§ 287.05, subd. 5, and intends to comply with the requirements contained therein with respect to any such future advances which are to be secured hereby. Mortgagor agrees to pay any additional mortgage registry tax required to effectuate such compliance.
(d)Β Β Β Β The maximum principal amount of indebtedness secured by this Mortgage at any one time, excluding any amounts constituting an βindeterminate amountβ under Minn. Stat. Β§ 287.05, subd. 5, and excluding any amounts upon which mortgage registry tax is not required to be paid pursuant to Minn. Stat. Β§ 287.05, subd. 4, is equal to Thirty Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($32,200,000).
(e)Β Β Β Β The representations contained in (c) and (d) above are made for the benefit of county recording officials in determining the amount of the mortgage registry tax payable as a prerequisite to the recording of this Mortgage. Mortgagor hereby acknowledges that such
representations do not constitute or imply an agreement by Mortgagee to make any future advances to Mortgagor.
24.Β Β Β Β Conflict. In the event of express and direct contradiction between any of the provisions of the Credit Agreement and any of the provisions contained herein, the provisions in the Credit Agreement shall control.
25.Β Β Β Β Last Dollar. The Obligations secured by this Mortgage shall be reduced only by the last and final sums that Mortgagor repays with respect to the Loans and shall not be reduced by any intervening repayments of the Loans by Mortgagor, except as may otherwise be permitted herein. Such intervening payments shall instead be deemed to reduce only such portions of the Obligations as are not secured by this Mortgage. As of the date of recording of this Mortgage, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans exceeds the amount of the maximum principal amount secured by this Mortgage, so that the maximum principal amount secured by this Mortgage represents only a portion of the Obligations actually outstanding.
26.Β Β Β Β Release. (a) This Mortgage shall terminate when the Obligations Payment Date shall have occurred. Upon termination of this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagor (i) an instrument, in proper form for recording, satisfying or releasing the lien of this Mortgage and (ii) any other termination statements or instruments which Mortgagor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon recording thereof, this Mortgage and the estate, right and interest of Mortgagee in and to the Mortgaged Property shall be cancelled and thereafter be of no further force and effect.
(b)Β Β Β Β Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time to time at the request of Mortgagor, prior to the occurrence of the Obligations Payment Date in connection with any sale or transfer of such Mortgaged Property permitted under the Loan Documents or upon the effectiveness of any written consent by Mortgagee or the requisite Lenders as provided under the Credit Agreement, to the release of the lien and security interest granted hereby in any or all of the Mortgaged Property, the estate, right and interest of Mortgagee in and to the Mortgaged Property shall be automatically cancelled and released and Mortgagee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagor (i) an instrument, in proper form for recording, satisfying or releasing the lien of this Mortgage and (ii) any other termination statements or instruments which Mortgagor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Upon such recording, the lien, the estate, right and interest of Mortgagee on, in and to such portion of the Mortgaged Property shall be cancelled and thereafter be of no further force and effect.
27.Β Β Β Β Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code; Fixture Filing. (a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Mortgage shall constitute a βsecurity agreementβ within the meaning of the Code, or if the perfection or nonperfection or priority of a Lien in any Mortgaged Property is governed by the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in another jurisdiction, such other Uniform Commercial Code with respect to any part of the Mortgaged Property which may or might now or hereafter be deemed to be Personal Property. All of Mortgagor's right, title and interest in the Personal Property is hereby assigned to Mortgagee, and Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee a security interest therein, to secure the payment of
the Obligations. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Mortgagee shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Code, including without limitation the right to take immediate and exclusive possession of the Personal Property or any part thereof. The remedies of Mortgagee hereunder are cumulative and the exercise of any one or more of the remedies provided for herein or under the Code shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the other remedies of Mortgagee, including having the Personal Property deemed part of the realty upon any foreclosure so long as any part of the Obligations remains unsatisfied. Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee to cause to be recorded in the County where the Land is located, as well as the applicable offices of the applicable jurisdiction, such financing statements and fixture filings as shall be necessary in order to perfect and preserve the priority of Mortgagee's security interest in the Personal Property, without execution thereof by Mortgagor.

(b)Β Β Β Β Without duplication of any indemnification obligations provided for under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Mortgagor agrees to indemnify Mortgagee and the other Secured Parties and their Indemnitees against, and hold each of them harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements and other reasonable charges of counsel, incurred by or asserted against any of them arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Mortgage or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating hereto or to the Mortgaged Property, whether or not the Secured Parties or any of their Indemnitees is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to Mortgagee, the other Secured Parties or any such 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 bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee, the other Secured Parties or such Indemnitee.
(c)Β Β Β Β Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby. The provisions of this Section 28 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations or the occurrence of the Obligations Payment Date or the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Mortgage. All amounts due under this Section 28 shall be payable within 30 days of written demand (including back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request) to Mortgagor given in accordance with Section 16 hereof.
29Β Β Β Β Additional Provisions. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary:
(a)Β Β Β Β Where any provision of this Mortgage is inconsistent with any provision of Minnesota law regulating the creation or enforcement of a lien or security interest in real or personal property including, but not by way of limitation, the Code, as amended, modified and/or replaced from time to time, the provisions of Minnesota law shall take precedence over the provisions of this Mortgage, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provisions of this Mortgage that can be construed in a manner consistent with Minnesota law. The words βlien of this Mortgageβ or words of similar import shall mean the lien and security interest created and conveyed by this Mortgage.
(b)Β Β Β Β To the extent the laws of the State of Minnesota limit (i) the availability of the exercise of any of the remedies set forth in this Mortgage, including without limitation the
remedies involving a power of sale on the part of Mortgagee and/or the Lenders and the right of Mortgagee and the Lenders to exercise self-help in connection with the enforcement of the terms of this Mortgage, or (ii) the enforcement of waivers and indemnities made by Mortgagor, such remedies, waivers, or indemnities shall be exercisable or enforceable, any provisions in this Mortgage to the contrary notwithstanding, if, and to the extent, permitted by the laws in force at the time of the exercise of such remedies or the enforcement of such waivers or indemnities without regard to the enforceability of such remedies, waivers or indemnities at the time of the execution and delivery of this Mortgage.
(c)Β Β Β Β Nothing in this Mortgage shall be deemed to be a waiver by Mortgagor of the time limitations on issuance of process set out in the laws or regulations of the State of Minnesota.
(d)Β Β Β Β To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the lien and security interest of this Mortgage with respect to any future advances, modifications, extensions, and renewals referred to herein and made from time to time shall have the same priority to which this Mortgage otherwise would be entitled as of the date this Mortgage is executed and recorded without regard to the fact that any such future advance, modification, extension, or renewal may occur after the Mortgage is executed.
(e)Β Β Β Β Even though the lien and security interest of this Mortgage shall be released from the Mortgaged Property subject to Article I, any of the terms and provisions of this Mortgage that are expressly intended to survive, shall nevertheless survive the release or satisfaction of this Mortgage whether voluntarily granted by Mortgagee or the Lenders, as a result of a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of this Mortgagee or in the event a deed in lieu of foreclosure is granted by Mortgagor to Mortgagee and/or the Lenders.
(f)Β Β Β Β Any receiver appointed under this Mortgage shall have all of the usual powers and duties of receivers pursuant to Minnesota common and statutory law, including, but not limited to, Minn. Stat. Β§ 576.01, as amended, modified and/or replaced from time to time.
(g)Β Β Β Β It is the intent of the parties to secure payment of the Obligations. The total amount of the Obligations may decrease or increase from time to time. It is expressly agreed that the Obligations may from time to time be reduced to a zero balance without such repayment operating to extinguish or release the lien and security interest created by this Mortgage. This Mortgage shall remain in full force and effect as to any subsequent future advances made after the zero balance without loss of any priority until the Obligations are paid in full and satisfied and all agreements between Mortgagor and Mortgagee for further advances have been terminated and this Mortgage released of record.
30.Β Β Β Β ComplianceΒ withΒ Applicable Law. Anything elsewhere herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding,
(a)Β Β Β Β Non-Agricultural Use. Mortgagor represents and warrants to Mortgagee that, as of the date of this Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property is not in agricultural use as defined in Minn. Stat. Β§ 40A.02, subd. 3 and Β§ 583.22, subd. 2, and is not used for agricultural purposes.
(b)Β Β Β Β Power to Foreclose. Mortgagor hereby grants and confers upon Mortgagee the fullest rights and remedies available for foreclosure of this Mortgage by action or by advertisement pursuant to Minn. Stat. Chapters 580, 581 and 582, as said statutes may be amended from time to time, and pursuant to other applicable Minnesota laws and statutes, as amended, governing and authorizing mortgage foreclosures by action and by advertisement; and the remedies granted Mortgagee in this Mortgage shall include, without limitation, the power of sale required to permit, at Mortgagee's option, lawful foreclosure of this Mortgage by advertisement in accordance with the statutes then made and provided. Nothing contained herein which may be construed as contrary to said statutes shall invalidate any other provision hereof.
(c)Β Β Β Β Other Statutory Remedies. Mortgagee's rights and remedies hereunder upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall include, without limitation, the fullest range and benefit of the rights and remedies made available to a mortgagee pursuant to Minn. Stat. Β§ 576.01 and Minn. Stat. Β§ 559.17, as said statutes may be amended from time to time. Nothing contained herein which may be construed as contrary to said statutes shall invalidate any other provision hereof. In the event that Mortgagee elects to exercise its remedies under said statutes, or any of said remedies, the terms and provisions of said statutes, as amended, governing the exercise of said remedies shall govern, control and take precedence over any contrary terms contained in this Mortgage. All rents, revenues, issues and profits included in the Mortgaged Property and collected by Mortgagee pursuant hereto shall be applied as required by Minn. Stat. Β§ 576.01, subd. 2. The exercise by Mortgagee of the statutory remedies referenced in this paragraph shall not constitute Lender a βmortgagee-in-possessionβ under Minnesota law, or give rise to any liability which might otherwise attach to Mortgagee as a mortgagee-in-possession.
(d)Β Β Β Β Interest Limitation. All agreements between Mortgagor and Mortgagee are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee exceed the highest lawful rate of interest, if any, permissible under the laws of the State of Minnesota. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or in the Loan Documents at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve the payment of interest exceeding the highest rate of interest permitted by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Minnesota; and if for any reason whatsoever Mortgagee shall ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful such interest shall be applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments of the Obligations (whether or not then due and payable) and not to the payment of interest.
31.Β Β Β Β Subdivision and Zoning. In connection with a potential sale of a portion of the Land and the Improvements in 2010, Mortgagor (a) obtained approval from the City of Xxxxx, Minnesota (the βCityβ) of a resubdivision of the Land in the form of a new subdivision plat thereof entitled βLONE OAK 3RD ADDITION,β as shown on Exhibit A to the Development Agreement (as defined hereafter) (the βNew Platβ); (b) obtained preliminary approval by the City of an unexecuted and undated draft of a Development Contract by and between the City and NWA Real Estate Holding Company LLC relating to the Land and the New Plat (the βDevelopment Agreementβ); and (c) began negotiation of an amended or replacement Planned Development Agreement with the City relating to the zoning status of the
Land (the βNew PDAβ). Said potential sale was not consummated, and Mortgagor is evaluating whether it would be more advantageous in negotiating any future sale of the Improvements, Land, or any portion of the Land to (i) now record the New Plat, sign the Development Agreement and finalize the New PDA, or (ii) wait until a buyer has been identified and its specific plans for the Land or portion thereof are ascertained and then (A) record the New Plat, sign the Development Agreement and finalize the New PDA, (B) revise the New Plat and the Development Agreement and finalize the New PDA, (C) have the City approve a different subdivision plat and/or amendments to or a substitute for the Development Agreement and finalize the New PDA, or (D) allow the buyer to itself pursue any resubdivision or rezoning which it may require, as seems most appropriate to accommodate the buyer's objectives with respect to the Land or portion thereof at the time. By acceptance of this Mortgage, Mortgagee acknowledges that it has received a copy of each of the New Plat and the Development Agreement and has approved the same, and agrees that, if requested to do so in writing by Mortgagor, it will within a reasonable period of time and in writing, if appropriate, (1) join in and/or consent to the New Plat and the Development Agreement, as appropriate, if Mortgagor elects to sign and record the New Plat and to finalize and sign the Development Agreement; (2) subject to Mortgagee's approval of the New PDA, consent to and/or join in the New PDA; (3) subject to Mortgagee's approval of the revisions to the New Plat and Development Agreement, consent to and/or join in any such revisions to the New Plat and to the Development Agreement proposed by Mortgagor and approved by the City; (4) subject to Mortgagee's approval of any different subdivision plat and/or amendment of or substitute for the Development Agreement, consent to and/or join in such different subdivision plat and/or such amendment of or substitute for the Development Agreement; and/or (5) assist and cooperate with Mortgagor as reasonably requested by Mortgagor to achieve any of the foregoing. Mortgagee's approval of and cooperation with Mortgagor with respect to the foregoing, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Mortgagee's consent and cooperation are expressly conditioned upon (I) no personal liability shall accrue to Mortgagee for any covenants or obligations contained in any documents consented to or joined in by Mortgagee; and (II) Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with any such consent and/or joinder requested by Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a sale of the Improvements, Land, or any portion of the Land that results in the remaining Mortgaged Property after such sale not being accurately described within the Initial Appraisal Report, within thirty (30) days after such sale, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee an Appraisal Report for such remaining Mortgaged Property that is secured by this Mortgage.

Without limiting any of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to file one or more financing statements (including fixture filings) and continuation statements for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest in the Collateral, without the signature of any Grantors, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured party.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The Grantors jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties that:
SECTION 3.01. Organization. Except as otherwise changed in accordance with the terms herein, each Grantor's exact legal name is that which is indicated on the signature pages hereof. Except as otherwise changed in accordance with the terms herein, each Grantor is organized under the laws of the jurisdiction listed on Schedule II hereto.

SECTION 3.03. Filings. The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein as of the date hereof is correct and complete in all material respects. Upon the filing of UCC financing statements naming each Grantor as βdebtorβ and the Administrative Agent as βsecured partyβ and containing a description of the Collateral in its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization as specified in the Perfection Certificate and payment of the required fees, the Security Interest will constitute a valid and perfected security interest (subject to Liens permitted under the Loan Documents) in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in all of the Collateral to the extent a security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction from time to time, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is, or will be, necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation statements.
SECTION 3.04. Validity of Security Interest. The Security Interest granted by each Grantor constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest in all the Collateral of such Grantor securing the payment of its Obligations (except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditor rights generally or by general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
SECTION 3.05. Absence of Other Liens. There are no Liens of any nature whatsoever on the Collateral other than Permitted Collateral Liens.

(b)Β Β Β Β Each Grantor shall comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and decrees applicable to its Collateral (except where noncompliance, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or a Collateral Material Adverse Effect), provided that a Grantor may contest the validity or applicability thereof in good faith by proper proceedings so long as such contest will not have a Material Adverse Effect or Collateral Material Adverse Effect.
(c)Β Β Β Β Until the Obligations Payment Date has occurred, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) each Grantor will perform any and all reasonable actions requested in writing by the Administrative Agent to enforce the Administrative Agent's security interest in its Equipment constituting Collateral and all of the Administrative Agent's rights hereunder and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, if any Equipment constituting Collateral valued in excess of $25,000,000 is in the possession or control of any of the Grantors' agents, contractors or processors or any other third party (other
Exhibit B

(d)Β Β Β Β Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (d), each Applicable Grantor shall continue to collect in accordance with its customary practice, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor under its Accounts and, prior to the request of the Administrative Agent upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall have the right to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon, all in accordance with its customary practices. In connection with such collections, the Grantors may, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, take (and at the direction of the Administrative Agent shall take) such action as the Grantors or the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Accounts; provided, that upon written notice by the Administrative Agent to any Applicable Grantor, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, of its intention so to do, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to notify the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts included in the Collateral of the assignment of such Accounts to the Administrative Agent and to direct such Account Debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Applicable Grantor thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such Accounts, and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done until such Event of Default is cured or waived. After receipt by such Applicable Grantor of the notice referred to in the proviso to the preceding sentence, and unless and until such notice is rescinded by the Administrative Agent by written notice to such Applicable Grantor (provided, that the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly rescind such notice upon the cure or waiver of such Event of Default), (i) all amounts and proceeds (including instruments) received by such Applicable Grantor in respect of such Accounts shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Applicable Grantor and shall be promptly paid over to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash collateral and either (A) promptly released to such Applicable Grantors if such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived or (B) if such Event of Default shall be continuing, applied as provided in Section 6.02 hereof, and (ii) the Applicable Grantors shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such Account, or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon.

ARTICLE V
POWER OF ATTORNEY
Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as such Grantor's true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact (which appointment shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest subject to the terms of this Agreement), and in such capacity the Administrative Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for each Grantor and in each Grantor's name or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or xxxx of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts included in the Collateral to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction, or to take any other action which the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors in respect of Accounts included in the Collateral to make payment directly to the Administrative Agent; (h) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, subject to applicable law; (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required pursuant to Section 4.08; and (j) to do all other acts and things reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing
Exhibit B
herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the monies due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby, and no action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof shall give rise to any defense, counterclaim or offset in favor of any Grantor or to any claim or action against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party except to the extent arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. The provisions of this Article shall in no event relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or impose any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to proceed in any particular manner with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof, or in any way limit the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any other or further right which they may have on the date of this Agreement or hereafter, whether hereunder, under any other Loan Document, by law or otherwise.
ARTICLE VI
REMEDIES
SECTION 6.01. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to take any or all of the following actions at the same or different times: (a) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon written request of the Administrative Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of its Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place to be designated by the Administrative Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties; (b) without assuming any obligations or liability thereunder, enforce (it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right to so enforce) all rights and remedies of the Grantors against any licensee or sublicensee in, to and under any license agreements with respect to the Collateral, and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and each of the Grantors hereby releases the Administrative Agent from, and agrees to hold the Administrative Agent free and harmless from and against any claims arising out of, any action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to any such license agreement except claims involving gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Administrative Agent as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; and (c) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Collateral and, without liability for trespass, to enter any premises owned by a Grantor or any Subsidiary of any Grantor where the Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its Collateral, at public or private sale or at any broker's board, on any securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate. The
Exhibit B
Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.
Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of any such sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) business days' notice to the applicable Grantor of the Administrative Agent's intention to make any sale of Collateral shall constitute reasonable notification. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker's board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication (except that each Grantor shall receive any notice required pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph), adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section, any Lender may bid for or purchase, free from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the fullest extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any Obligation then due and payable to such Lender from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Lender may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Administrative Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Administrative Agent shall have entered into such an agreement, all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations Payment Date shall have occurred. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose on this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to
Exhibit B
a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.
SECTION 6.02. Application of Proceeds. Upon an Event of Default, each Grantor further agrees that the Administrative Agent may apply any proceeds from the disposition of any of its Collateral in accordance with Section 2.17(b) of the Credit Agreement.

(c)Β Β Β Β Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.15, any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby.

SECTION 7.09. Waivers; Amendment.

Each Pledgor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days' notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.

(ii)Β Β Β Β Except as otherwise provided herein, each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Administrative Agent's taking possession or the Administrative Agent's disposition of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law; and each Pledgor hereby further waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession; (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Administrative Agent's rights hereunder; and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of each Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under such Pledgor.
(iii)Β Β Β Β If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then in the Administrative Agent's reasonable discretion, the Administrative Agent may use the blank, undated, signed Primary FAA Slot transfer documents held in escrow from time to time (substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto) as a means to effectuate a transfer as contemplated herein, subject in each case to applicable law.
(iv)Β Β Β Β In connection with any foreclosure, collection, sale or other enforcement of Liens granted to the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, the Pledgors will cooperate in good faith with the Administrative Agent or its designee in obtaining all regulatory licenses, consents and other governmental approvals necessary or (in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative
15
Agent or its designee) desirable to conduct all aviation operations with respect to the Collateral and will, at the request of the Administrative Agent and in good faith, continue to operate and manage and preserve and keep in full force and effect it material rights and licenses in the Collateral and maintain all applicable regulatory licenses with respect to the Collateral until such time as the Administrative Agent or its designee obtain such licenses, consents and approvals (or until the Administrative Agent is able to complete the transfer or other disposition of such Collateral, as applicable), and at such time the Pledgors will cooperate in good faith with the transition of the aviation operations with respect to the Collateral to any new aviation operator (including, without limitation, the Administrative Agent or its designee).
Section 11.Β Β Β Β APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All cash proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies as a secured creditor as provided in Section 10 of this Agreement shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for, and then at any time thereafter shall, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be applied, in whole or in part, against all or any part of the Obligations in such order as provided for in Section 2.17(b) of the Credit Agreement. Any surplus of such cash proceeds held by the Administrative Agent and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be promptly paid over to the Pledgors or to whomever may be at such time lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. Each Pledgor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any such sale, collection or other realization are insufficient to pay its Obligations and fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.
Section 12.Β Β Β Β NO WAIVER; DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDING.

All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Administrative Agent may recover reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included in such judgment.
16
(b)In the event the Administrative Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Administrative Agent, then and in every such case each Pledgor, the Administrative Agent and each holder of any of the Obligations shall to the extent permitted by applicable law be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

17
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]
party under such conditional sale or other security agreement as the result of any Engine or Spare Engine being installed on such airframe.
The Administrative Agent acknowledges that any Wet Lease or other similar arrangement under which a Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) maintains operational control of an Aircraft does not constitute a delivery, transfer or relinquishment of possession for purposes of this Section 2.01(a).
(b)Β Β Β Β Operation and Use. Grantors agree that no Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine will be maintained, used or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority of any country having jurisdiction over such Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to such Aircraft issued by any such Governmental Authority, except for unanticipated, minor or non-recurring violations, and except to the extent a Grantor (or, if a Lease is then in effect with respect to such Aircraft, any Permitted Lessee) of such Aircraft is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such law, rule or regulation in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine or any material risk of subjecting the Administrative Agent or any Lender to criminal liability or materially impair the Lien of this Mortgage; provided that, Grantors shall not be in default under, or required to take any action set forth in, this sentence if it is not possible for them to comply with the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States (and other than any jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is then registered) because of a conflict with the applicable laws of the United States (and such jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is then registered); provided, further, that a Grantor shall only be entitled to contest mandatory grounding orders if it does not operate such Aircraft or Spare Engine during such contest. Grantors will not operate any Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine or permit any Aircraft, Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by the terms of Section 2.03 or (ii) in any war zone or recognized or, in Grantors' reasonable judgment threatened areas of hostilities unless covered by war risk insurance in accordance with Section 2.03, unless in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), indemnification complying with Section 2.03(d) has been provided; provided, however, that Grantors' failure to comply with the provisions of this sentence shall not give rise to an Event of Default hereunder where such failure is attributable to causes beyond the control of Grantors (or any Permitted Lessee) or to extraordinary circumstances involving an isolated occurrence or isolated series of occurrences attributable to a hijacking, medical emergency, equipment malfunction, weather conditions, navigational error or other similar unforeseen circumstances.
(c)Β Β Β Β Maintenance. Grantors shall maintain, service, repair and overhaul each Aircraft, Airframe, Engine and Spare Engine (or cause the same to be done) so as to keep each Aircraft, Airframe, Engine and Spare Engine in good operating condition and in such condition as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of each Aircraft to be maintained in good standing at all times (other than during temporary periods of storage, during maintenance, testing or modification permitted hereunder, or during periods of grounding by applicable Governmental Authorities, unless such grounding is due to the failure by Grantors to maintain such Aircraft in accordance with the terms hereof) under Title 49, during such periods in which such Aircraft is registered under the laws of the United States, or, if such Aircraft is registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction, the applicable laws of such jurisdiction, in compliance
18
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]
always with Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement, using the same standards as Grantors (or a Permitted Lessee of such Aircraft, if a Lease is in effect with respect to such Aircraft) uses with respect to similar aircraft operated by Grantors (or such Permitted Lessee) in similar circumstances. In any case, each Aircraft, Airframe, Engine, Spare Engine and Pledged Spare Part will be maintained in accordance with the maintenance standards required by the FAA (while operated under an FAA-approved maintenance program) or, while operated under the maintenance program of another jurisdiction, standards substantially equivalent to those required by the central aviation authority of the United States, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland or the United Kingdom. Each Grantor shall maintain or cause to be maintained all records, logs and other documents required to be maintained in respect of each of its Aircraft and Spare Engines by appropriate authorities in the jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is registered.
(d)Β Β Β Β Identification of the Administrative Agent's Interest.
(i)Β Β Β Β Grantors agree to affix as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date and thereafter to maintain in the cockpit of each Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and (if not prevented by applicable law or regulations or by any government) on each Engine and Spare Engine a nameplate bearing the inscription βMORTGAGED TO JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., AS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTβ (such nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a nameplate reflecting the name of any successor Administrative Agent).
(ii)Β Β Β Β On or prior to the Closing Date and from time to time thereafter, the Grantors shall install signs, in size and form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, at each of the Designated Spare Parts Locations in which the Pledged Spare Parts are stored and otherwise as may be directed by the Administrative Agent within each Designated Spare Parts Location, bearing the inscription: βMORTGAGED TO JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., AS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTβ (such sign to be replaced if there is a successor Administrative Agent).
(e)Β Β Β Β Registration. The applicable Grantors shall cause each Aircraft to remain duly registered, under the laws of the United States, in the name of the applicable Grantor. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Grantors, at their own expense, may cause or allow such Aircraft to be duly registered under the laws of any country listed on Exhibit D (except as indicated therein) in the name of the appropriate Grantor or of any nominee thereof, or, if required by applicable law, in the name of any other Person (and, following any such foreign registration, may cause such Aircraft to be re-registered under the laws of the United States); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall have received, at least two Business Days prior to the time of such non-US registration (provided that such document can be furnished less than two Business Days prior to such time if the Administrative Agent received a draft of such document no later than two Business Days prior to such time), one or more Opinions of Counsel, expert in the laws of the United States and such other jurisdiction, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, subject to exceptions, assumptions and limitations customary in such jurisdiction and of a nature customarily accepted by aircraft financiers making loans to entities in such jurisdiction, to the effect that:
19
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]
(1)such jurisdiction maintains normal diplomatic relations with the United States (except, in the case of Taiwan);
(2)such re-registration will not adversely affect the Administrative Agent's first priority and perfected Lien on such Aircraft (and Grantors shall, at their expense, to the extent legally permitted, cause the interest of the Administrative Agent as secured party in respect of such Aircraft to be duly registered or recorded under the laws of such jurisdiction and the International Interests of the Administrative Agent in such Airframe and Engines to be duly registered in the International Registry, and at all times thereafter to remain so duly registered or recorded unless and until the registration of such Aircraft is changed as provided herein, and shall cause to be done at all times all other acts necessary or, by reference to prudent industry practice in such jurisdiction and under the Cape Town Treaty, advisable in order to create, preserve and protect such interests in such Aircraft, and the priority thereof, as against a Grantor or any third parties), and the laws of such jurisdiction would provide the Administrative Agent with protections of its interest in and to such Aircraft substantially equivalent to the protections afforded to the holder or a first priority security interest under the UCC;
(3)the obligations of Grantors under this Mortgage shall remain valid, binding and enforceable to the same extent as before such registration, and such re-registration shall not create any disability or adverse effect to the existence or enforceability of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents;
(4)any import or export permits necessary to take such Aircraft into such jurisdiction and any exchange permits necessary to allow all payments provided for under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents shall be in full force and effect;
(5)there are no possessory rights in favor of a Grantor or any Permitted Lessee which would, upon bankruptcy or other default by a Grantor or any Permitted Lessee, prevent the return of such Aircraft to the Administrative Agent in accordance with and when permitted by the terms of the Mortgage upon the Administrative Agent's exercise of remedies thereunder, or, if such possessory rights exist, they are not materially greater than those available to owners and lessees under United States law and there are no procedural impediments to the return of such Aircraft to the Administrative Agent materially greater than under United States law, and upon termination of any lease, registration shall be terminable without material burden or delay;
(6)there is no strict liability imposed on passive lenders, except such tort liability not of materially greater scope or magnitude than might be imposed on such passive lender under the prevailing law among the states of the United States, and except liabilities that Grantors or a Permitted Lessee has agreed to insure against in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
20
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]

(8)no Liens (other than Permitted Collateral Liens) shall arise by reason of such re-registration;
(9)(unless Grantors shall have agreed to provide insurance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent covering the risk of requisition of use of such Aircraft by the government of such jurisdiction so long as such Aircraft is registered under the laws of such jurisdiction) the laws of such jurisdiction require fair compensation by the government of such jurisdiction, payable in currency freely convertible into Dollars, for the loss of use of such Aircraft in the event of requisition by such government of such use; and
(10)neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be subjected to any adverse tax consequences as a result of such re-registration for which Grantors are not required to indemnify such Person, unless Grantors have agreed to indemnify such Person therefor.
The Administrative Agent will cooperate with Grantors in effecting such foreign registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate of the Appraised Values of all Airframes reregistered outside the United States pursuant to this Section 2.01(e) and of all Airframes and Engines and Spare Engines (including the Appraised Value(s) attributable to any quick engine change kits installed on any such Engine or Spare Engine) leased pursuant to Sections 2.01(a)(viii) and 2.01(a)(ix), other than of Engines or Spare Engines so leased (whether or not reregistered) having a term (including any renewal term) of six months or less, shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the total Appraised Values of all Collateral at any time (such 15% limitation is the βReregistration and Lease Limitβ) (except to the extent that such Reregistration and Lease Limit is expressly waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) and prior to any such change in the country of registry of any Aircraft, the following conditions shall be met (unless waived as provided in Section 10.08 of the Credit Agreement):

Grantors, at their own cost and expense, will promptly replace or cause to be replaced all Parts which may from time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever, except as otherwise provided in SectionΒ 2.02(c). In addition,Β a GrantorΒ (or any Permitted Lessee) may remove in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, any Part, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use; provided that such Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee), except as otherwise provided in SectionΒ 2.02(c), replaces such Part as promptly as practicable. All replacement Parts shall be owned by a Grantor free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted Collateral Liens, pooling arrangements permitted by SectionΒ 2.02(b) hereof and replacement parts temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall be in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof. All Parts at any time removed from any Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine shall remain the property of a Grantor and subject to the Lien of this Mortgage, no matter where located, until such time as such Parts shall be replaced by Parts which meet the requirements for replacement Parts specified herein. Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to the applicable Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine, without further act (subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens and any pooling arrangement permitted by SectionΒ 2.02(b) hereof and except replacement parts temporarily installed on an emergency basis), such replacement Part shall become the property of a Grantor and subject to the Lien of this Mortgage and be deemed a Part for all purposes hereof to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine and the replaced Part shall be free and clear of all rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and shall no longer be deemed a Part

In addition, each Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee), at its own expense, may from time to time add further parts or accessories and make or cause to be made such alterations and modifications in and additions to any Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine as a Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including removal (without replacement) of Parts which a Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) deems to be obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use on such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine (such parts, βObsolete Partsβ); provided that no such alteration, modification, removal or addition materially diminishes the fair market value or utility of such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine below the fair market value or utility thereof immediately prior to such alteration, modification, removal or addition assuming such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Mortgage. In addition, the fair market value (but not the utility) of an Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine may be reduced by the fair market value, if any, of Obsolete Parts which shall have been removed so long as the aggregate fair market value of all Obsolete Parts which shall have been removed and not replaced with respect to any Aircraft shall not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate.

Upon the removal thereof as provided above, such Part shall no longer be deemed to be subject to the Lien of this Mortgage or part of such Airframe, Engine or Spare Engine from which it was removed. Upon request of a Grantor from time to time, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to such Grantor an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such removed Part from the Lien of this Mortgage.

Section 4.05Β Β Β Β Remedies Cumulative.

All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on a Grantor in any case shall entitle it or any other Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances.

Such Indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim without the prior written consent of the Grantors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified with respect to such Claim. Where a Grantor or its insurers undertake the defense of an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim, no additional legal fees or expenses of such Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Claim shall be indemnified hereunder unless such fees or expenses were incurred at the written request of a Grantor or such insurers. Subject to the requirements of any policy of insurance, an Indemnitee may participate at its own expense in any judicial proceeding controlled by a Grantor pursuant to the preceding provisions; provided that such party's participation does not, in the Opinion of Counsel appointed by a Grantor or its insurers to conduct such proceedings, interfere with such control. Such participation shall not constitute a waiver of the indemnification provided in this Section 6.11. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Grantors shall not under any circumstances be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnitees with respect to any one Claim unless a conflict of interest shall exist among such Indemnitees.
(g)Β Β Β Β Subrogation. To the extent that a Claim is in fact paid in full by the Grantors or its insurer, the Grantors or such insurer (as the case may be) shall, without any further action, be subrogated to the rights and remedies of the Indemnitee on whose behalf such Claim was paid with respect to the transaction or event giving rise to such Claim. Such Indemnitee shall give such further assurances or agreements and shall cooperate with a Grantor or such insurer, as the case may be, to permit such Grantor or such insurer to pursue such rights and remedies, if any, to the extent reasonably requested by such Grantor. So long as no Specified Default under Section 7.01(b) of the Credit Agreement or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if an Indemnitee receives any payment, in whole or in part, from any party other than a Grantor or its insurers with respect to any Claim paid by such Grantor or its insurers, it shall promptly pay over to such Grantor the amount received (but not an amount in excess of the amount such Grantor or any of its insurers has paid in respect of such Claim). Any amount referred to in the preceding sentence that is payable to a Grantor shall not be paid to such Grantor, or, if it has been previously paid directly to such Grantor, shall not be retained by such Grantor, if at the time of such payment a Specified Default under Section 7.01(b) of the Credit
55
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]
Agreement or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be paid to and held by the Administrative Agent as security for the Obligations. At the option of the Administrative Agent, such amount payable shall be applied against the Obligations when and as they become due and payable. At such time as such Specified Default under Section 7.01(b) of the Credit Agreement or Event of Default is no longer continuing, such amount, to the extent not previously so applied against a Grantor's obligations, shall be paid to such Grantor.
(h)Β Β Β Β No Guaranty. Nothing set forth in this Section 6.11 constitutes a guarantee by the Grantors that any Aircraft, Airframe, Engine, Spare Engine or Pledged Spare Part at any time will have any particular value, useful life or residual value.
(i)Β Β Β Β Payments; Interest. Any amount payable to any Indemnitee on account of a Claim shall be paid within 30 days after receipt by a Grantor of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the Claims that are the subject of and basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount payable. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 6.11 directly to an Indemnitee or to a Grantor, as the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as is specified by the payee in written directions to the payor or, if no such directions are given, by check of the payor payable to the order of the payee and mailed to the payee by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid to its address referred to in Section 6.04. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest at the applicable rate provided for in Section 2.08 of the Credit Agreement shall be paid, on demand, on any amount or indemnity not paid when due pursuant to this Section 6.11 until the same is paid. Such interest shall be paid in the same manner as the unpaid amount in respect of which such interest is due.
(j)Β Β Β Β Tax deduction or credit. If, by reason of any Claim payment made to or for the account of an Indemnitee by a Grantor pursuant to this Section 6.11, such Indemnitee subsequently realizes a tax deduction or credit (including foreign tax credit and any reduction in Taxes) not previously taken into account in computing such payment, such Indemnitee shall promptly pay to such Grantor, but only if such Grantor has made all payments then due and owing to such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents, an amount equal to the sum of (1) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by such Indemnitee which is attributable to such deduction or credit, and (2) the actual reduction in Taxes realized by such Indemnitee as a result of any payment made by such Indemnitee pursuant to this sentence; provided that, each Grantor, upon request of such Indemnitee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Grantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant taxing authority) to such Indemnitee to the extent a subsequent determination by such taxing authority results in an actual increase in Taxes payable by such Indemnitee which is attributable to such deduction or credit.
Sectioin 6.12Β Β Β Β Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code. It is the intention of the parties that the Administrative Agent be entitled to the benefits of Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to each Grantor's rights thereunder, with respect to the right to take possession of Aircraft, Engine, Spare Engines and Pledged Spare Parts (other than Aircraft listed on Schedule 3.18 to the Credit Agreement and Engines, Spare Engines and Pledged Spare Parts that were first placed in service on or prior to October 22, 1994), and to enforce any of its other rights or remedies as provided in this Mortgage in the event of a case under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
56
[Aircraft, Spare Engines and Spare Parts Mortgage and Security Agreement]
Code in which a Grantor is a debtor, all subject to the provisions and limitations of the Bankruptcy Code.
Section 6.13Β Β Β Β Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent shall enter into any Intercreditor Agreement and such Intercreditor Agreement shall remain outstanding, the rights granted to the Secured Parties hereunder, the lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and such Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control with respect to any right or remedy, and no right, power or remedy granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent, and no direction shall be given by the Administrative Agent, in contravention of such Intercreditor Agreement.

Schedule 3.14
ERISA
Except as set forth below, no Termination Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur since the Borrower emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
β’ | Depending upon the resolution of collective bargaining representation of certain work groups at Borrower, Borrower may withdraw from the IAM National Pension Plan, a multi employer pension plan, to which it became obligated to contribute as the result of Northwest Airline's participation in such plan for certain of its employees commencing shortly following Northwest Air Lines, Inc.'s exit from Chapter 11. Because the date of withdrawal, if it occurs, is unknown, as is the funded status of such Plan at the time of such withdrawal (and thus whether there would be any withdrawal liability, and the amount of such liability), Borrower cannot determine at this time whether it is reasonable to expect that such liability, if any, could have a Material Adverse Effect. Thus, in an abundance of caution, and not as an indication that Borrower believes that it is reasonable to expect that such withdrawal liability (if any is assessed) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Borrower has included this potential event in this Schedule 3.14. |
