(d) All amounts payable hereunder by the Obligor shall be paid to the Bank at its address set forth above or at such other place as the Bank may give notice from time to time, in immediately available funds in the currency specified by the Bank, without set off, defense, recoupment, deduction, cross-claim or counterclaim of any kind; and free and clear of, and without deduction for, any present or future Taxes. If the Bank or the Obligor pays any Taxes, whether or not correctly or legally assessed, the amounts payable hereunder shall be increased so that, after the payment of such Taxes, the Bank shall have received an amount equal to the sum the Bank would have received had no such Taxes been paid. If any amount payable hereunder is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Obligor shall make payment in such currency or, at the Bank’s option, shall pay the Dollar Equivalent thereof. To effect any payment due hereunder, the Bank may debit any account that the Obligor may have with the Bank or any Bank Affiliate.

3. Nature of Obligations. (a) The Obligor’s obligations to the Bank under this Agreement are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed in accordance with the terms hereof irrespective of any act, omission, event or condition, including, without limitation (i) the form of, any lack of power or authority of any signer of, or the lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) any draft, demand, document, certificate or instrument presented in connection with any Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Credit or any obligation underlying any Credit, in each case, even if the Bank or any of its correspondents have been notified thereof; (ii) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by the Obligor or the Bank against any beneficiary of a Credit, or the existence of any claim, set off, recoupment, counterclaim, cross-claim, defense, or other right that the Obligor may at any time have against any beneficiary, any successor beneficiary, any transferee or assignee of the proceeds of a Credit, the Bank or any correspondent or agent of the Bank, or any other person, however arising; (iii) any acts or omissions by, or the solvency of, any beneficiary of any Credit, or any other person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Credit; (iv) any failure by the Bank to issue any Credit in the form requested by the Obligor, unless the Bank receives written notice from the Obligor of such failure within three Business Days after the Bank shall have furnished the Obligor (by facsimile transmission or otherwise) a copy of such Credit and such error is material; and (v) any action or omission (including failure or compulsion to honor a presentation under any Credit) by the Bank or any of its correspondents in connection with a Credit, draft or other demand for payment, document, or any property relating to a Credit, and resulting from any censorship, law, regulation, order, control, restriction, or the like, rightfully or wrongly exercised by any Governmental Authority, or from any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the Bank or any of its correspondents, or for any loss or damage to the Obligor or to anyone else, or to any property of the Obligor or anyone else, resulting from any such action or omission.
(b) The Bank is authorized to honor any presentation under a Credit without regard to, and without any duty on the Bank’s part to inquire into, any transaction or obligation underlying such Credit, or any disputes or controversies between the Obligor and any beneficiary of a Credit, or any other person, notwithstanding that the Bank may have assisted the Obligor in the preparation of the wording of any Credit or documents required to be presented thereunder or that the Bank may be aware of any underlying transaction or obligation or be familiar with any of the parties thereto.
(c) The Obligor agrees that any action or omission by the Bank or any of its correspondents in connection with any Credit or presentation thereunder shall be binding on the Obligor and shall not result in any liability of the Bank or any of its correspondents to the Obligor in the absence of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Bank and each of its correspondents (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Bank or such correspondent to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the Obligor; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Bank; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being separately delivered), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Credit; and (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located. In no event shall the Bank be liable to the Obligor for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Credit.
(d) If the Obligor or any other person seeks to delay or enjoin the honor by the Bank of a presentation under a Credit, the Bank shall have no obligation to delay or refuse to honor the presentation until validly so ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.

The Bank’s rights with respect to the Collateral may be exercised without demand on or notice to the Obligor. The Bank shall be deemed to have exercised its right of set off immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder without any action of the Bank, although the Bank may enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time. The Obligor agrees from time to time to deliver to the Bank, on demand, such further agreements and instruments, and such additional security, as the Bank may require to secure, or further secure, the Obligor’s obligations hereunder.

10. Miscellaneous. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“Notices”) must be in writing and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the parties may separately agree, including electronic mail. Without limiting the foregoing: (i) first class mail, facsimile transmission and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices and (ii) Applications may be submitted electronically via, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of, the PINACLE Network System (or such other network system offered by the Bank), if Obligor is an authorized user of such system or by such other electronic means acceptable to the Bank. Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party’s address as set forth above or to such other address as any party may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this section. The Bank may rely, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any Notice or Application believed by the Bank to be genuine and to have been given by the proper party or parties. No delay or omission on the Bank’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered to be a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank’s action or inaction impair any such right or power. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Obligor from, any provision of this Agreement, will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid by a court, all the other provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect. If this Agreement is executed by more than one Obligor, each Obligor waives any and all defenses to payment and performance hereunder based upon principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or otherwise and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor consents to: any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of or in any other term of all or any of the obligations of any other Obligor hereunder or otherwise, and any exchange or release of any property or collateral, or the release or other amendment, extension, renewal, waiver of, or consent to departure from, the terms hereof or of any guaranty or security agreement or any other agreement related hereto. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Obligor and the Bank and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Obligor may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the Bank’s prior written consent and the Bank may at any time assign this Agreement in whole or in part. The Obligor hereby authorizes the Bank, from time to time without notice to the Obligor, to record telephonic and other electronic communications of the Obligor and provide any information pertaining to the financial condition, business operations or creditworthiness of the Obligor to or at the direction of any Governmental Authority, to any of the Bank’s correspondents, and any Bank Affiliate, and to any of its or their directors, officers, employees, auditors and professional advisors, to any person which in the ordinary course of its business makes credit reference inquiries, to any person which may succeed to or participate in all or part of the Bank’s interest hereunder, and as may be necessary or advisable for the preservation of the Bank’s rights hereunder. The Bank acknowledges that Obligor is a publicly traded company and the Bank understands and will comply with its obligations under applicable securities laws with regard to material non-public information of Obligor provided hereunder to the Bank (or any other person described in the preceding sentence). This is a continuing Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until no obligations of the Obligor and no Credits exist hereunder; provided, however, that termination of this Agreement shall not release the Obligor from any payment or performance that is subsequently rescinded or recouped, and the obligation to make any such payment or performance shall continue until paid or performed as if no such payment or performance ever occurred. Provisions concerning payment, indemnification, increased costs, Taxes, immunity, and jurisdiction shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
11. Waiver of Immunity. The Obligor acknowledges that this Agreement is entered into, and each Credit will be issued, for commercial purposes and, if the Obligor now or hereafter acquires any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or any of its property, the Obligor hereby irrevocably waives such immunity.
12. Jurisdiction. The Obligor hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court for the county or judicial district in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania where the Bank’s office set forth above is located; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent the Bank from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment, or exercising any right against the Obligor individually, against any security, or against any property of the Obligor within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The Obligor agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for the Bank and the Obligor. The Obligor waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action under this Agreement.

13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE OBLIGOR IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS THE OBLIGOR MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR CLAIM OF ANY NATURE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY CREDIT, ANY DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CREDIT, OR ANY OBLIGATION OR TRANSACTION UNDERLYING ANY OF THE FOREGOING. THE OBLIGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS KNOWING AND VOLUNTARY.
14. Governing Law. This Agreement and each Credit shall be interpreted, construed, and enforced according to (a) the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including, without limitation, the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC;” with the definitions of Article 5 of the UCC controlling over any conflicting definitions in other UCC Articles); and (b) the UCP or the ISP98, as set forth in each Credit, which are, as applicable, incorporated herein by reference and which shall control (to the extent not prohibited by the law referred to in (a)) in the event of any inconsistent provisions of such law. In the event that a body of law other than that set forth above is applicable to a Credit, the Obligor shall be obligated to pay and reimburse the Bank for any payment made under such Credit if such payment is, in the Bank’s judgment, justified under either the law governing this Agreement or the law governing such Credit.
