All payments (and prepayments) of the Loans and accrued and unpaid interest thereon must be made to the Lenders ratably according to the outstanding balances of the Loans actually made by the respective Lenders.

Such accounts or records maintained by the Agent shall be conclusive as to the amount of the Loans made by each Lender to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon, absent manifest error. Any failure to so record or any error in the accounts or records shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount actually owing with respect to the Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement is being executed as a “noteless” credit agreement. However, at the request of any Lender at any time, the Borrower agrees that it will prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note, in form and substance satisfactory to such Lender and the Agent, payable to the order of such Lender and its registered assigns (a “Note”).

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Lenders in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. All payments received by a Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
 
2.08            
Sharing of Payments.
 
If any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest. The Borrower consents to the foregoing.

8.02 Remedies Upon Event of Default.
 
If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may take any or all of the following actions:
 
(a) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, premiums, fees and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and
 
(b) declare the Additional DIP Commitments terminated, whereupon the Additional DIP Commitments shall immediately be terminated;
 
(c) terminate this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as to any future liability or obligation of the Borrower, but without affecting the Obligations; and
 
(d) after providing three (3) Business Days’ notice to counsel to the Borrower, the Bankruptcy Court, and the Committee (if any) of the occurrence of the Event of Default, during which period the Borrower may attempt to cure such Event of Default if feasible, (the “Notice and Cure Period”), exercise all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, or under applicable Law or equity.
 
Upon termination of the Notice and Cure Period, the automatic stay pursuant to section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall be automatically terminated without further notice or order of the Bankruptcy Court, unless the Agent elects otherwise in a written notice to the Debtor, and the Agent shall be permitted to exercise all rights and remedies set forth in the DIP Order and the Loan Documents, and as otherwise available at law without further order or application or motion to the Bankruptcy Court, and without restriction or restraint by any stay under Bankruptcy Code sections 362 or 105 or otherwise. In the event that any party requests a hearing seeking to prevent the Agent from exercising any of its rights and remedies that arise after an Event of Default, the sole issue before the Bankruptcy Court at such hearing shall be whether an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured. No other issue or argument shall be relevant to any opposition to enforcement of the Agent’s rights.
 
8.03 Application of Funds.
 
After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Agent in the following order:
 
First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Agent;
 
 
23
 
 
Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Lenders and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Lenders;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans; and
 
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.
 
For the avoidance of doubt, all amounts applied to principal of and interest on the Loans must be applied as among the Lenders ratably according to the outstanding balances of the Loans actually made by the respective Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Documents, any rights to reimbursement or indemnification of the Agent or any Lender, as an Indemnitee, under any Loan Documents shall only apply to expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities incurred or arising out of any such Indemnitee’s status as a debt financing provider (or agent for debt financing providers) to the Borrower (and not as an equity holder of the Borrower).
 
(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower hereby waives, any claim against the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Related Parties 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, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

25
 
 
9.06 Successors and Assigns.
 
(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent, and the Agent and each Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.06(b) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
 
(b) Assignments by Agent and Lenders. The Agent or any Lender may at any time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of the Loans); provided that (i) unless an Event of Default exists or such assignment is to an Affiliate of the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required for such assignment and (ii) any assignment by a Lender must be approved in writing by the Agent. Subject to recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to clause (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of the assignor under this Agreement to the extent of the interest assigned, and the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the Agent’s or an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Agent or Lender, as applicable, shall cease to be a party hereto and the assignee shall become the “Agent” or a “Lender”, as applicable, hereunder) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.02, and 9.04 (and in the case of the Agent, any indemnifications of the Agent) with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations.
 
(c) Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of any assignees and the DIP Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
 
(d) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
 
9.07 Set-off.
 
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by the Agent, such Lender or any such Affiliate, as applicable, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured. The rights of the Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Agent, such Lender and their respective Affiliates may have. The Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application by it, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
 
9.08 Interest Rate Limitation.
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Lender may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
 
 
26
 
 
9.09 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
 
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
 
9.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties.
 
All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agent and the Lenders, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent or any Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of the making of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
 
9.11 Severability.
 
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby, and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
 
9.12 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION.
 
(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF COLORADO, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CHOICE-OF-LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION AND, TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, THE BANKRUPTCY CODE.
 
(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO (I) THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE BANKRUPTCY COURT AND (II) THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS SITTING IN COLORADO, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.
 
(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (ii) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate, and (iii) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) the Agent and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower and (ii) the Agent and each Lender has no obligation to the Borrower with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents to which it is a party; and (c) the Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, and the Agent and each Lender has no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower.

In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the DIP Order, the DIP Order shall govern.
 
ARTICLE X  

AGENT PROVISIONS
 
10.01    Authorization and Action.
 
(a)    Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Majority Lender to serve as the Agent under the Loan Documents, and each Lender authorizes the Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
 
(b)    As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including with respect to enforcement or collection), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action. Without limiting the foregoing, the Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers.
 
(c)    In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders, and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
