§2.1         Commitment to Lend.  Subject to the provisions of §2.5 and the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time between the Effective Date and the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given and approved by the Agent in accordance with §2.5, such sums as are requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Obligations (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to such Lender’s Commitment, provided that the sum of the Outstanding Obligations (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment. The Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Lender’s Facility Percentage and the Lenders shall at all times immediately adjust inter se any inconsistency between each Lender’s outstanding principal amount and each Lender’s Commitment.  Each request for a Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in §10 or §11 (whichever is applicable) have been satisfied in all material respects on the date of such request and will be satisfied on the proposed Borrowing Date of the requested Loan, provided that the making of such representation and warranty by Borrower shall not limit the right of any Lender not to lend upon a determination by the Majority Lenders that such conditions have not been satisfied.

§2.2         The Notes.  The Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each a “Note”), and completed with appropriate insertions.  One or more Notes shall be payable to the order of each Lender in an

13

aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Borrowing Date of any Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender’s Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender’s Record reflecting the making of such Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on such Lender’s Record shall (absent manifest error) be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on the Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Note when due. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of any Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of its Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of such Note or other security document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

§2.3         Interest on Loans.

(a)           Each Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Borrowing Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to 2.75% above the Prime Rate.

(b)           Each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Borrowing Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to 3.50% above LIBOR determined for such Interest Period.

(c)           The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

§2.4         Conversion Options.

(a)           The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any outstanding Loan to a Loan of another Type, provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan to a Prime Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) Business Days, prior written notice of such election; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Prime Rate Loan, such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) subject to the further proviso at the end of this section and subject to §2.4(b) and §2.4(d) hereof with respect to any such conversion of a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days, prior written notice of such election and (iv) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Facility Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. All or any part of outstanding Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided further that each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan shall be for an amount equal to $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

14

(b)           Any Loans of any Type may be continued as such upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the notice provisions contained in §2.4(a); provided that no LIBOR Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing but shall be automatically converted to a Prime Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default of which the officers of the Agent active upon the Borrower’s account have actual knowledge.

(c)           In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any Loan, such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Prime Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

(d)           The Borrower may not elect to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan pursuant to §2.4(a) or elect to continue a LIBOR Loan pursuant to §2.4(b) if, after giving effect thereto, there would be greater than five (5) LIBOR Loans outstanding.  Any Loan Request for a LIBOR Loan that would create greater than five (5) LIBOR Loans outstanding shall be deemed to be a Conversion Request for a Prime Rate Loan.

§2.5         Requests for Loans.  The Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit B hereto of each Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) no less than (a) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date of any Prime Rate Loan and (b) three (3) LIBOR Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date of any LIBOR Loan.  Each such notice shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Loan requested, (ii) the proposed Borrowing Date of such Loan, (iii) the Interest Period for such Loan, and (iv) the Type of such Loan, and shall be accompanied by a Compliance Certificate based on the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to §7.4(d) with updated calculations evidencing compliance with the covenants contained in §9.3 through §9.6 hereof after giving effect to such requested Loan.  Within one (1) Business Day after receipt of a Loan Request, the Agent shall provide to each of the Lenders by facsimile a copy of such Loan Request and accompanying Compliance Certificate and each Lender shall, within 24 hours thereafter, notify the Agent if it believes that any of the conditions contained in §11 of this Agreement has not been met or waived.  If such a notice is given the Majority Lenders shall promptly determine whether all of the conditions contained in §11 of this Agreement have been met or waived.  If no such notice is given by any Lender or if following such notice the Majority Lenders determine that the conditions contained in §11 have been met or waived, each of the Lenders shall be obligated to fund its Facility Percentage of the requested Loans.  Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and the Borrower shall be obligated to accept the Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Borrowing Date.  Each Loan Request shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

§2.6         Funds for Loans.

(a)           Subject to §2.5 and the other provisions of this Agreement, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Borrowing Date of any Loans, each of the Lenders will make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Facility Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans.  Upon receipt from each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §§10 or 11

15

(whichever is applicable) and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Loans made available to the Agent by the Lenders.  The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Borrowing Date the amount of its Facility Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Facility Percentage of any requested Loans but shall not obligate any other Lender or Agent to fund more than its Facility Percentage of the requested Loans or to increase its Facility Percentage.

(b)           The Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Borrowing Date, assume that such Lender has made available to the Agent on such Borrowing Date the amount of such Lender’s Facility Percentage of the Loans to be made on such Borrowing Date, and the Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  If any Lender makes available to the Agent such amount on a date after such Borrowing Date, such Lender shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the Federal Funds Effective Rate during each day included in such period, times (ii) the amount of such Lender’s Facility Percentage of such Loans, time (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days or portion thereof that elapsed from and including such Borrowing Date to the date on which the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Loans shall become immediately available to the Agent, and the denominator of which is 365.  A statement of the Agent submitted to such Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Agent by such Lender.  If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent.  The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to the applicable rate for such Loan.

§2.7         Increase in Total Commitment.

(a)           Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the one-time option to request an increase in the Total Commitment to not more than $50,000,000.00 by written notice to the Agent (the amount of such requested increase is the “Commitment Increase”), provided that any such increase must become effective on or before December 31, 2005.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall consult with Arranger and shall notify the Borrower of the amount of facility fees to be paid to any Lenders who provide an additional Commitment in connection with such increase in the Total Commitment.  If the Borrower agrees to pay the facility fees so determined, then the Agent shall send a notice to all Lenders (the “Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of the Borrower’s request to increase the Total Commitment and of the facility fees to be paid with respect thereto.  Each Lender who desires to provide an additional Commitment upon such terms shall provide Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of the additional Commitment by which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment Request Notice.  If the requested increase is

16

oversubscribed then the Agent and the Arranger shall allocate the Commitment Increase among the Lenders who provide such commitment letters on such basis as the Agent and the Arranger shall determine in their sole discretion.  If the additional Commitments so provided are not sufficient to provide the full amount of the Commitment Increase requested by the Borrower, then the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, invite one or more Eligible Assignees to become a Lender and provide an additional Commitment.  The Agent shall provide all Lenders with a notice setting forth the amount, if any, of the additional Commitment to be provided by each Lender and the revised Commitment Percentages which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (the “Commitment Increase Date”).

(b)           On the Commitment Increase Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders such that after the Commitment Increase Date the outstanding principal amount of Loans owed to each Lender shall be equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (as in effect after the Commitment Increase Date) of the outstanding principal amount of all Loans.  On the Commitment Increase Date those Lenders whose Commitment Percentage is increasing shall advance the funds to the Agent and the funds so advanced shall be distributed among the Lenders whose Commitment Percentage is decreasing as necessary to accomplish the required reallocation of the outstanding Loans.  The funds so advanced shall be Prime Rate Loans until converted to LIBOR Loans which are allocated among all Lenders based on their Commitment Percentages.  To the extent such reallocation results in certain Lenders receiving funds which are applied to LIBOR Loans prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, then the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the affected Lenders the LIBOR Prepayment Fee which shall be determined separately for each such Lender in the manner set forth in §3.3.

(c)           Upon the effective date of each increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.7 the Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1 and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent new Notes for each Lender whose Commitment has changed so that the principal amount of such Lender’s Note shall equal its Commitment.  The Agent shall deliver such replacement Notes to the respective Lenders in exchange for the Notes replaced thereby which shall be surrendered by such Lenders.  Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes and that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the Commitment Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the replaced Notes.  Within five (5) days of issuance of any new Notes pursuant to this §2.7(d), the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel, addressed to the Lenders and the Agent, relating to the due authorization, execution and delivery of such new Notes and the enforceability thereof, in form and substance substantially similar to the opinion delivered in connection with the first disbursement under this Agreement. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

§3.          REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

§3.1         Maturity.  The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay on the Maturity Date, and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Maturity Date, all of the Loans outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest and charges thereon.

17

§3.2         Mandatory Repayments of Loan.  If at any time the sum of the Outstanding Obligations exceeds the Total Commitment, then the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders for application to the Loans.  Borrower further covenants and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (if anything), at least one (1) time during each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, Borrower shall cause the outstanding balance of the Loans to not exceed $20,000,000.00 for a period of not less than thirty (30) consecutive days, and if necessary to comply with the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay such amount of the Loans (and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and other amounts payable hereunder (including all amount payable in connection with such prepayment)) such that there shall be a balance hereunder of not more than $20,000,000.00 for such period.

§3.3         Optional Repayments of Loans.

(a)           The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole or in part, on any Business Day, without penalty or premium; provided that the full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount of any LIBOR Loans made pursuant to this §3.3 may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, except as set forth below in this §3.3. The Borrower shall give the Agent no later than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of any Prime Rate Loans and four (4) LIBOR Business Days, notice of any proposed repayment pursuant to this §3.3 of any LIBOR Loans, specifying the proposed date of payment of Loans and the principal amount to be paid.  The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the principal amount of such payment to be received by such Lender. Each such partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and, to the extent requested by the Agent, shall be accompanied by the payment of all charges outstanding on all Loans and of accrued interest on the principal repaid to the date of payment. The principal payments so received shall be applied first to the principal of Prime Rate Loans and then to the principal of LIBOR Loans.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower may make a full or partial prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, if all optional prepayments (in whole or in part) on such Loans shall be accompanied by, and the Borrower hereby promises to pay, the Breakage Costs.

(b)           Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following:  (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of the LIBOR Rate as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a LIBOR Loan; (ii) the LIBOR Rate is used merely as a reference in determining such rate; and (iii) Borrower has accepted the LIBOR Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage Costs.  Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

§4.          CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1         Facility Fees.  On the Closing Date, and on other dates specified in the Agreement Regarding Fees, the Borrower shall pay to KeyBank the fees with respect to the Loan in the

18

amounts specified in the Agreement Regarding Fees.  All such fees shall be fully earned when paid and nonrefundable under any circumstances.

§4.2         Unused Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Facility Percentages an Unused Fee calculated at the rate of 0.75% per annum on the daily amount by which the Total Commitment exceeds the Outstanding Obligations for each calendar month.  The Unused Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on or before the third Business Day of each calendar month for the immediately preceding calendar month commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, with a final payment on the Maturity Date or any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate.

§4.3         Agent’s Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Agent’s own account, an annual Agent’s fee as provided in the Agreement Regarding Fees.  The Agent’s fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof.  The Agent’s fee shall also be paid upon the Maturity Date or earlier termination of the Commitments.  The Agent’s fee for any partial quarter shall be prorated.

§4.4         Funds for Payments.

(a)           All payments of principal, interest, closing fees, commitment fees and any other amounts due hereunder (other than as provided in §4.1, §4.6 and §4.7) or under any of the other Loan Documents, and all prepayments, shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders, at the Agent’s Head Office, in each case in Dollars in immediately available funds.

(b)           All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory liens, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding.  If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document.

§4.5         Computations.  All computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be made on the basis of  360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be

19

extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. The outstanding amount of the Loans as reflected on the Records from time to time shall (absent manifest error) be considered correct and binding on the Borrower unless within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt by the Agent or any of the Lenders from Borrower of any notice by the Borrower of such outstanding amount, the Agent or such Lender shall notify the Borrower to the contrary.

§4.6         Additional Costs, Etc.  If any present or future applicable law (which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority, whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(a)           subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender’s Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or profits of such Lender or the Agent), or

(b)           materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c)           impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or Loans by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(d)           impose on any Lender any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, the Commitment, or any class of Loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or the Commitment forms a part;

and the result of any of the foregoing is

(i)            to increase the cost to such Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment, or

(ii)           to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to such Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of the Commitments or any of the Loans, or

(iii)          to require such Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

20

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, upon demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent, to the extent permitted by law, such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum.

§4.7         Capital Adequacy.  If any present or future law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or the interpretation thereof by a court or governmental authority with appropriate jurisdiction affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by banks or bank holding companies and any Lender or the Agent determines that the amount of capital required to be maintained by it is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans made or deemed to be made pursuant hereto, then such Lender or the Agent may notify the Borrower of such fact, and the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Agent from time to time on demand, as an additional fee payable hereunder, such amount as such Lender or the Agent shall determine in good faith and certify in a notice to the Borrower to be an amount that will adequately compensate such Lender or the Agent in light of these circumstances for its increased costs of maintaining such capital. Each Lender and the Agent shall allocate such cost increases among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.

§4.8         Certificate.  A certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to §§4.6 or 4.7 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be prima facie evidence that such amounts are due and owing.

§4.9         Breakage Costs.  Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs incurred from time to time by any Lender upon demand within fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice from Agent, or such earlier date as may be required by this Agreement.

§4.10       Default Interest and Late Charges.  During any period when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or after the Maturity Date or after judgment has been rendered on any Note, Borrower’s right to select LIBOR Loans shall cease and the unpaid principal of all Loans shall, at the option of each Lender bear interest at a rate which is four (4) percentage points per annum greater than that which would otherwise be applicable to Prime Rate Loans. If the entire amount of any required principal and/or interest is not paid in full within ten (10) days after the same is due, Borrower shall pay to the Agent a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the required payment.

§4.11       Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate.  In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Loan, the Agent shall reasonably determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to any LIBOR Loan during any Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) to the Borrower. In such event (a) any Loan Request or Conversion Request with respect to LIBOR Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for Prime Rate Loans, (b) each LIBOR Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period thereof, become a Prime Rate Loan, and (c) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Agent reasonably determines

21

that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower.

§4.12       Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower and thereupon (a) the Commitment of such Lender to make LIBOR Loans or convert Loans of another Type to LIBOR Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Prime Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this §4.12, including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Loans hereunder. If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts which constitute interest and which are reserved, charged or taken by the Lenders as compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collection of the Loans or the other Obligations, shall be deemed by any competent court of law, governmental agency or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by any Lender to Borrower under applicable law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal without penalty (including, without limitation, prepayment fees required pursuant to §3.3(a) hereof).  As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof, provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

§4.13       Replacement of Lenders.  If any of the Lenders shall make a notice or demand upon the Borrower pursuant to §4.6, §4.7, or §4.12 based on circumstances or laws which are not generally applicable to the Lenders organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such Lender with an Eligible Assignee selected by the Borrower and approved by the Agent.  In such event the assignment shall take place on a date set by the Agent at which time the assigning Lender and the Eligible Assignee shall enter into an Assignment and Acceptance as contemplated by §18.1 (and clause (d) thereof shall not be applicable) and the assigning Lender shall receive from the Eligible Assignee a sum equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to the assigning Lender together with accrued interest thereon plus all other amounts then due to the assigning Lender hereunder.

§4.14       Limitation on Interest.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all agreements between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law.  If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise by payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under

22

applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower.  All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.  This section shall control all agreements between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Agent.

§5.          NO LIMITATION ON RECOURSE.

§5.1         [Intentionally Omitted.]

§5.2         No Limitation on Recourse.  The Obligations are full recourse obligations of the Borrower and all of its Real Estate Assets and other properties and assets shall be available for the indefeasible payment in full in cash and performance of the Obligations.

§6.          REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and each of the Lenders as of the Closing Date and as of the date of each Loan hereunder as follows.

§6.1         Authority; Etc.

(a)           Organization; Good Standing.  The Borrower (i) is a Maryland corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, (ii) has all requisite power to own its properties and conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated, and (iii) to the extent required by law is in good standing as a foreign entity and is duly authorized to do business in the State of Colorado and in each other jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary except where a failure to be so qualified in such other jurisdiction would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Related Company is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of its formation, has all requisite power to own its properties and conduct its business as presently contemplated and is duly authorized to do business in the State in which the property owned by it is located and in each other jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary.

(a)           First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of all reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent to such monies;

(b)           Second, to all other Obligations in such order or preference as the Majority Lenders may determine; provided, however, that (i) distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall include, on a pari passu basis, the Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.3, and (ii) in the event that any Lender shall have wrongfully failed or refused to make an advance under §2.6 and such failure or refusal shall be continuing, advances made by other Lenders during the pendency of such failure or refusal shall be entitled to be repaid as to principal and accrued interest in priority to the other Obligations described in this subsection (b), and distributions in respect of such Obligations shall be made among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with each Lender’s respective Facility Percentage; and provided, further, that the Agent may in its discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable;

(c)           Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Lenders and the Agent of all of the Obligations, and to the payment of any obligations required to be paid pursuant to applicable laws applicable to such enforcement; and

(d)           Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other Persons as are legally entitled thereto.

§13.        SETOFF.

Borrower hereby grants to each Lender, a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations to such Lender hereunder, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of such Lender or in transit to it.  At any time, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), any Lender may, WITH THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE AGENT, setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower hereunder  even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ANY LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that (a) if an amount to be set off is to be applied to Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender, other than Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes held by such Lender, such amount shall be applied ratably to such other Indebtedness and to the Indebtedness

evidenced by all such Notes held by such Lender, and (b) if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the claim evidenced by the Notes held by such Lender by proceedings against the Borrower at law or in equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall exercise a right of setoff if such exercise would limit or prevent the exercise of any other remedy or other recourse against the Borrower.

§14.        THE AGENT.

§14.1       Authorization.  The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent.  The obligations of Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any Lender or to create any agency or fiduciary relationship.  Agent shall act as the contractual representative of the Lenders hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term “Agent”, it is understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  The Borrower and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§14.2       Employees and Agents.  The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent in its sole discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

§14.3       No Liability.  Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or

46

error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§14.4       No Representations.  The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability by or against Borrower of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial condition of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any other Person.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents 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 Agent or any other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Agent’s counsel has only represented Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney-client relationship or duty of care is between Agent’s counsel and Agent or KeyBank. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents and the granting and perfecting of liens in the Collateral.

§14.5       Payments.

(a)           A payment by the Borrower to the Agent hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender subject to the pro rata rights to repayment based upon the Facility Percentage of each Lender. The Agent agrees, promptly after the Agent’s receipt of good funds as determined in accordance with Agent’s customary practices, to distribute to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents.

(b)           If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent

47

its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

(c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Lender that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or (ii) to comply with the provisions of §12 and §13  with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders, where such Lender’s share of any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Agreement, or to adjust promptly such Lender’s outstanding principal and its pro rata Facility Percentage as provided in §2.7 hereof, shall be deemed delinquent (a “Delinquent Lender”) and shall be deemed a Delinquent Lender until such time as such delinquency is satisfied.  A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrower, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans.  The Delinquent Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Lenders in proportion to their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans.  In addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent at law and in equity, a Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any rights to consent to or direct any action or inaction of the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, or to be taken into account in the calculation of Majority Lenders or any matter requiring approval of all of the Lenders, shall be suspended while such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.  A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding Loans of the nondelinquent Lenders, the Lenders’ respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency.  The provisions of this Section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments.  The Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the obligations of any Delinquent Lender any amounts to be paid to such Delinquent Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or suit against such Delinquent Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted obligations of such Delinquent Lender and, to the extent such recovery would not fully compensate the Lenders for the Delinquent Lender’s breach of this Agreement, to collect damages.  In addition, the Delinquent Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default rate of interest set forth in §4.10, for funds advanced by Agent or any other Lender on account of the Delinquent Lender or any other damages such Persons may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of the Delinquent Lender’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement.

§14.6       Holders of Notes.  The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

48

§14.7       Indemnity.  The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by §15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§14.8       Agent as Lender.  In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

§14.9       Resignation.  The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, appointment of such successor Agent shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Borrower.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of notice of resignation or the Borrower has disapproved or failed to approve a successor agent within such period, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution having a rating of not less than A2/P2 or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Corporation. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

§14.10     Notification of Defaults and Events of Default.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent thereof. The Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this §14.10 it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or Event of Default.

§14.11     Duties in the Case of Enforcement.  In case one of more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the obligations shall have occurred, the Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Majority Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of the Loan Documents and exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have. The Majority Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent

49

reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction or would subject to the Agent to civil liability.

§14.12     Bankruptcy.  In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against Borrower, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders.  Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings.

§15.        EXPENSES.

The Borrower agrees to pay (a) any taxes (including any interest and penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of the Lenders (other than taxes based upon the Agent’s or any Lender’s net income), including any intangibles taxes in connection with the Loan Documents, or other taxes payable on or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any taxes payable by the Agent or any of the Lenders after the Closing Date (the Borrower hereby agreeing to indemnify the Lenders with respect thereto), (b) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Agent’s counsel or any local counsel to the Agent incurred in connection with the preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, each closing hereunder, and amendments, modifications, approvals, consents or waivers hereto or hereunder, (c) the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of the Agent incurred in connection with the preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, (d) the fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of the Agent incurred in connection with the syndication and/or participation of the Loans, (e) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, which attorneys may be employees of any Lender or the Agent and the fees and costs of appraisers, engineers, investment bankers, surveyors or other experts retained by the Agent or any Lender in connection with any such enforcement proceedings) incurred by any Lender or the Agent in connection with (i) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against the Borrower or the administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default (including, without limitation, expenses incurred in any restructuring and/or “workout” of the Loans), and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to the Agent’s or the Lender’s relationship with the Borrower, any Controlled Unconsolidated Entity or any of the Related Companies, (f) all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Agent incurred in connection with UCC searches, UCC filings or mortgage recordings, (g) all reasonable costs incurred by the Agent in the future in connection with its inspection of the Real Estate, and (h) the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of the Agent incurred in connection with the granting of any collateral by the Borrower, including, without limitation, the costs incurred by the Agent in connection with its inspection of such collateral, and the fees and disbursements of the Agent’s counsel. The covenants of this §15 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of amounts owing with respect to the Notes.

§16.        INDEMNIFICATION.

The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and the Lenders and the shareholders, directors, agents, officers, subsidiaries, and affiliates of the Agent and the Lenders and any Person that controls the Agent or any Lender from and against any and all claims,

50

actions or causes of action and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, settlement payments, obligations, damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or which otherwise arise in connection with the financing including, without limitation except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Lender or the Agent as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods (but such limitation on indemnification shall only apply to the Agent or Lender that is being grossly negligent or committing willful misconduct), (a) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans, (b) any actual or alleged infringement of any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark or similar right of the Borrower, (c) the Borrower entering into or performing this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (d) with respect to the Borrower and its respective properties, the violation of any Environmental Law, the Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Substances or any action, suit, proceeding or investigation brought or threatened with respect to any Hazardous Substances (including, but not limited to claims with respect to wrongful death, personal injury or damage to property), (e) any cost, claim liability, damage or expense in connection with any harm the Borrower may be found to have caused in the role of a broker, in each case including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lenders and the Agent shall each be entitled to select their own separate counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this §16 are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this §16 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect as to the Lenders so long as the possibility of any such claim, action, cause of action or suit exists under applicable law, rule or regulation.

§17.        SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in the Notes, in any of the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by it, and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement or the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents remains outstanding or the Lenders have any obligation to make any Loans. The indemnification obligations of the Borrower provided herein and the other Loan Documents shall survive the full repayment of amounts due and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder and thereunder to the extent provided herein and therein. All statements contained in any certificate delivered to the Agent or any Lender at any time executed on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder.

The Borrower and all endorsers hereby waive presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance and enforcement of this Note, and also hereby assent to extensions of time of payment or forbearance or other indulgences without notice.
