     11. Indemnification and Contribution.

          (a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Dealer Manager, its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and “affiliates” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act), and any person who controls any Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons (each, an ‘Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, the Dealer Manager or any such Indemnified Party may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in any amendment or supplement thereto) or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading except insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Dealer Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Dealer Manager through you to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement in connection with such information which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the Offer to Exchange or the Exchange Offer Materials (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except, with respect to the Offer to Exchange or the Exchange Offer Materials, insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with, information concerning such Dealer Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf such Dealer Manager through you to the Company expressly for use in the Offer to Exchange or the Exchange Offer Materials, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Offer to Exchange or the Exchange Offer Materials in connection with such information which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Offer to Exchange or Exchange Offer Materials or was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (iii) any withdrawal, termination or cancellation by the Company of, or failure by the Company to make or consummate, the Exchange Offer, (iv) any actions taken or omitted to be taken by an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement or with the express consent of the Company, (v) any breach by the Company of any representation or warranty, or any failure by the Company to comply with any agreement contained in this Agreement, or (vi) any matter in any way relating to or referred to in this Agreement or arising out of the matters contemplated by this Agreement,

including, without limitation, related services and activities prior to the date of this Agreement, except, in the case of this clause (vi) only, to the extent that it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a judgment that has become final in that it is no longer subject to appeal or other review that such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim resulted solely from your gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          (b) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company ( the “Indemnifying Party”) pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 11, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify such Indemnifying Party in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and such Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability which such Indemnifying Party may have to any Indemnified Party or otherwise. The Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the Indemnifying Party shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to defend such Proceeding or such Indemnified Party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such Indemnifying Party (in which case such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party or Parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by such Indemnifying Party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the Indemnified Parties who are parties to such Proceeding). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent but, if settled with its written consent, such Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party or Parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Party shall have requested an Indemnifying Party to reimburse the Indemnified Party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this Section 11(b), then the Indemnifying Party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 business days after receipt by such Indemnifying Party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such Indemnifying Party shall not have fully reimbursed the Indemnified Party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such Indemnified Party shall have given the Indemnifying Party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party.

          (c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 11 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party under subsection (a) of this Section 11 or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Dealer Manager, on the other hand, in connection with the matter giving rise to such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Dealer Manager on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, subject to the limitation that in any event the Dealer Manager’s aggregate contribution to all losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims with respect to which contribution is available hereunder shall not exceed the amount of fees actually received by the Dealer Manager pursuant to this Agreement. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Dealer Manager on the other with respect to the Exchange Offer and any other transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as (i) the aggregate value of the consideration paid or proposed to be paid to the beneficial holders of the Outstanding Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any other transactions contemplated hereby (whether or not the Exchange Offer and any other transactions contemplated hereby are consummated), bear to (ii) the fees payable to Dealer Manager with respect to the Exchange Offer and any other transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to Section 5. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Dealer Manager on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or by Dealer Manager and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to in this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any Proceeding.

          (d) The Company and Dealer Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (c) above. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

          (e) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 11 and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Company contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Dealer Manager, its partners, directors or officers or any person (including each partner, officer or director of such person) who controls Dealer Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or by or on behalf of the Company, its directors or officers or any person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15

of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the Exchange Offer. The Company and Dealer Manager agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of the Company, against any of the Company’s officers or directors in connection with the Exchange Offer, or in connection with the Registration Statement or the Offer to Exchange.

          (f) The foregoing rights to indemnification and contribution shall be in addition to any other rights which Dealer Manager and the other Indemnified Parties may have against the Company under common law or otherwise including, without limitation, rights to indemnification, reimbursement and contribution under the Engagement Letter.

     12. Reference to Dealer Manager. The Company agrees that any reference to you or your affiliates in any Exchange Offer Materials, or any other release, publication or communication relating to the Transactions to any party outside the Company, is subject to your prior approval. If you resign or are terminated prior to the dissemination of any Exchange Offer Materials or any other release or communication, no reference shall be made therein to you without your prior written permission.

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Dealer Manager Agreement.

     In order to induce you to enter into the Dealer Manager Agreement, the undersigned agrees that, for a period (the “Lock-Up Period”) beginning on the date of the Dealer Manager Agreement and ending on, and including, the date that is 90 days after the Expiration Date, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of UBS Securities LLC, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file (or participate in the filing of) a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) with respect to, any common stock (the “Common Stock”), $.001 par value per share, of the Company, any debt securities of the Company or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to Common Stock or the Notes, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Stock, any debt securities of the Company or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to Common Stock or the Notes, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (iii) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) bona fide gifts, provided the recipient thereof agrees in writing with UBS Securities LLC to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, (b) dispositions during his or her lifetime or upon death by gift, will or intestacy to an immediate family member or any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that such person or trust agrees in writing with UBS Securities LLC to

be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, (c) the sale of shares of Common Stock in connection with the cashless or net exercise of options where shares of Common Stock may be sold or deemed to have been sold in an amount equal to the value of the aggregate exercise price underlying such options being exercised in accordance with the terms of the option documents or (d) the sale of shares of Common Stock to cover tax obligations due upon grant or the Company’s withholding of shares of Common Stock, each in an amount equal to the federal, state and local income and withholding taxes up to a marginal tax rate as if the person was subject to the New York City tax rate. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean the undersigned and the spouse, any lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned.

     In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any rights the undersigned may have to require registration of Common Stock in connection with the filing of any registration statement relating to the Exchange Offer.

     Notwithstanding the above, if (a) during the period that begins on the date that is fifteen (15) calendar days plus three (3) business days before the last day of the Lock-Up Period and ends on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or (b) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the sixteen (16) day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, then the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the date that is fifteen (15) calendar days plus three (3) business days after the date on which the issuance of the earnings release or the material news or material event occurs.

     The undersigned hereby confirms that the undersigned has not, directly or indirectly, taken, and hereby covenants that the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, take, any action designed, or which has constituted or will constitute or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the Exchange Offer or the sale or resale of Notes or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

     If (i) the Company notifies you in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Exchange Offer, (ii) the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Exchange Offer is withdrawn or (iii) for any reason the Dealer Manager Agreement shall be terminated prior to the consummation of the Exchange Offer, this Lock-Up Agreement shall be terminated as of such time and the undersigned shall thereafter be released from its obligations hereunder.

9.		Each of the Registration Statement and the Offer to Exchange, on the Commencement Date (except in each case as to the financial statements, schedules, notes, other financial and accounting data and statistical data derived therefrom, as to which we express no opinion), appeared on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and the Schedule TO, on the Commencement Date (except in each case as to the financial statements, schedules, notes, other financial and accounting data and statistical data derived therefrom, as to which we express no opinion), appeared on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.1

12.		The execution, delivery and performance of the Dealer Manager Agreement and the New Notes by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby, the Exchange Offer, the issuance of the New Notes and the issuance of Shares upon conversion of the New Notes, do not and will not result in any breach or violation of or constitute a default under (nor constitute any event that, with notice, lapse of time, or both, would result in any breach or default under or give the holder of any indebtedness (or a person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a part of such indebtedness under) (or result in the creation or imposition of a lien, charge or encumbrance on any property or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to) (i) the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, or amended and restated by-laws of the Company or any of the Named Subsidiaries, or (ii) any provision of any agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, or (iii), the Delaware General Corporation Law, or any U.S. federal or New York or New Jersey state law, rule or regulation that, in our experience, is generally applicable to transactions in the nature of those contemplated by the Dealer Manager Agreement, or (iv) to our knowledge, any decree, judgment or order of any court, except that we express no opinion in this paragraph 12 regarding the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws or any state securities or “Blue Sky” laws.

		required to be described in the Registration Statement and the Offer to Exchange and that are not so described as required.

19.		To our knowledge, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (nor any agent thereof acting on their behalf) has taken any action that might cause the Dealer Manager Agreement or Exchange Offer to violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, in each case as in effect on the date hereof.

The following additional opinions shall be provided on the Exchange Date:
