(a)    The Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lenders, including but not limited to reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Lenders, in connection with the negotiation and preparation of any Credit Documents, and all ancillary documents related thereto, including any amendments, modifications or waivers thereto requested or agreed to by the Borrower (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), or the enforcement or protection of the Lenders’ rights in connection with any Credit Documents, including its rights under this Section in connection with the Loan made hereunder or any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof.

(b)    The Borrower (i) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lenders from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses of any kind (including reasonable and

documented legal expenses of one counsel to the Lenders) (collectively, “Losses”) that arise out of, result from or in any way relate to (a) this Agreement, the transaction contemplated hereby or any related transaction (including, without limitation, the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents) or (b) the use, or the contemplated use, of the proceeds of the Loan or any related transaction, other than any Losses claimed by any Lender to the extent such Losses (a) are determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been incurred by reason of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender, (b) arise from any dispute solely among the Lenders, or (c) in relation to Taxes, indemnification for all of which shall be governed solely by Section 2.05; and (ii) agrees to reimburse each Lender, upon its demand, together with reasonably detailed backup documentation, for any legal or other expenses of one legal counsel incurred in connection with investigating, defending or participating in any such Loss (whether or not such Lender is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expenses arise). In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders, or creditors or a Lender, whether or not such Lender is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower agrees that no Lender shall be responsible or liable (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, or otherwise) to the Borrower or its affiliates in connection with the matters which form the subject of the Credit Documents or any transactions contemplated hereby (or any related transactions), except to the extent such liability is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly or primarily from such Lender’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or as a result of any material breach of the obligations of such Lender under this Agreement. In case any action or proceeding is instituted involving any Lender, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing. If any action or proceeding shall be brought against or involving a Lender, the Borrower shall assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Lender. After the timely assumption of the defense of such claim or action, the Borrower shall not be liable to the Lender under this paragraph for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Lender in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that any Lender shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Lender unless (A) the Borrower and such Lender shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, or (B) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Borrower and such Lender and the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Borrower shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of separate counsel retained in accordance with (A) or (B) above; provided, that the Borrower shall not, in connection with any action or proceeding, or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Majority Lenders. The Borrower shall not, without prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), settle any threatened or pending claim or action that would give rise to the right of any Lender to claim indemnification hereunder unless such settlement (x) includes a full and unconditional release of all liabilities arising out of such claim or action against such Lender and (y) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Lender.

(c)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the Transactions, each Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or Obligations hereunder and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower shall be null and void, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Obligations hereunder to any Person without the written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as such Obligations may be transferred by any Lender as a result of death or in connection with the customary estate planning of such Lender.

SECTION 7.05.    Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loan, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on the Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid. The provisions of Section 2.05, Section 2.06, and Section 7.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loan or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 7.06.    Right of Setoff. If any amount payable hereunder is not paid as and when due, the Borrower hereby authorizes any Lender and each affiliate of such Lender to proceed, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without prior notice, by right of setoff, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or otherwise, against any assets of the Borrower in any currency that may at any time be in the possession of such Lender or such affiliate, at any branch or office, to the full extent of all amounts payable to such Lender hereunder or thereunder. The Lenders shall give prompt notice to the Borrower after any exercise of the Lenders’ rights under the preceding sentence, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of any of the Lender’s actions.

SECTION 7.07.    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without effecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and such invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction, and the parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
