or any other country where such securities are listed or (viii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Representative, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency is such as to make it impractical or inadvisable to market the Offered Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Offered Securities.
     (c) Opinion of Counsel for Company. The Purchasers shall have received an opinion, dated the Closing Date, of Greenberg Traurig, P.A. (“Greenberg Traurig”), counsel for the Company to the effect that:
     (i) Good Standing of the Company. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its businesses or the ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or to be in good standing, considering all such cases in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
     (ii) Good Standing of the Guarantors. Each Guarantor has been duly incorporated (or, with respect to any Guarantor that is not a corporation, duly organized and formed) and is validly existing as a corporation (or such other entity, as applicable) in good standing, to the extent such concept is applicable, under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation (or organization and formation, as applicable), is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable) as a foreign corporation (or such other entity, as applicable) in each jurisdiction in which its respective ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business (based on information from the Company as to such ownership, lease or conduct) requires such qualification, and has all power and authority necessary to own or hold its properties and to conduct the business in which it is engaged and as described in the General Disclosure Package, except where the failure to so qualify or have such power or authority could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
     (iii) Offered Securities. The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors; the Notes have been duly authorized, executed, authenticated, issued and delivered by the Company; the Guarantees have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Guarantor; and the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles and entitled to the benefits provided by the Indenture.
     (iv) Exchange Notes; Exchange Guarantees. The Exchange Notes have been duly authorized by the Company; the Exchange Guarantees have been duly authorized by each Guarantor; and when the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Guarantees are issued, executed and authenticated in accordance with

-21-


 

the terms of the Exchange Offer and the Indenture, the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Guarantees will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and will be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
     (v) Outstanding Stock of Guarantors. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Guarantors (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued, (ii) are fully paid and nonassessable and (iii) except to the extent set forth in the General Disclosure Package, are owned by the Company (A) directly or indirectly through one or more wholly-owned Subsidiaries, (B) free and clear of any liens, restriction upon voting or transfer or any other claim of any third party, except as to liens securing the Existing Guarantees and such Liens as are disclosed in the General Disclosure Package.
     (vi) No Registration Rights. To the best of our knowledge, except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package, there are no contracts, agreements or understandings between the Company or any Guarantor and any person granting such person the right to require the Company or such Guarantor to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to any securities of the Company or such Guarantor or to require the Company or such Guarantor to include such securities with the Securities and Guarantees registered pursuant to any registration statement.
     (vii) Authorization of Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
     (viii) Investment Company. None of the Company, the Guarantors, or any of their respective Subsidiaries is and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Offered Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the General Disclosure Package, will be an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act.
     (ix) Absence of Further Requirements. No consent, authorization, approval, order, exemption, registration, qualification or other action of, or filing with, the Commission or any federal, state, local governmental or regulatory authorities or any United States federal court or state court of the State of New York is required in connection with (i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Security Documents in connection with the offering, issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company, except such as may be required under state securities laws; (ii) the grant by the Guarantors of the security interests or other liens granted under any of the Security Documents or for the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Security Documents by the Guarantors, as

     (x) Litigation. To such counsel’s knowledge and except as set forth in the General Disclosure Package, there is no legal or governmental proceeding pending to which the Company or the Guarantors is a party or of which any property or assets of the Company or the Guarantors is the subject which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or would prevent or adversely affect the ability of the Company or the Guarantor to perform their obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Security Documents; and to the best of such counsel’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others.
     (xi) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts Resulting from Transaction. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Security Documents, and the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities by the Company and the Guarantors and the issuance of the Guarantees by the Guarantors and compliance with the terms and conditions thereof do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any of the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or similar organizational documents) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with or violate in any material respect (A) any United States Federal or New York law, rule or regulation or (B) any order, judgment or decree known to such counsel to be applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be bound or (iii) result in a breach of any of the material terms or provisions of, or constitute a default (with or without due notice, lapse of time or both) under, the Indenture or any loan, credit agreement, indenture, mortgage, note or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their respective properties or assets is or may be bound, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 (as amended, the “2009 10-K”) or as an exhibit to the Company’s other reports filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the filing date of the 2009 10-K.

     (xii) Accurate Disclosure. The statements in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular under the headings “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”, “Description of the Notes”, “Description of Other Indebtedness” and “Business — Legal Proceedings”, insofar as such statements summarize matters of law, regulation, legal conclusions, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are accurate and fair summaries of such legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings in all material respects and present the information required to be shown in all material respects.
     (xiii) Authorization of Agreement. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Guarantors.
     (xiv) Absence of Existing Defaults and Conflicts. To such counsel’s knowledge, neither the Company nor the Guarantors (i) is in violation of its charter or by-laws (or other organizational documents, as applicable), (ii) is in default in any respect, and no event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument filed as an exhibit to the 2009 10-K, or as an exhibit to the Company’s other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the filing of the 2009 10-K, or (iii) is in violation in any respect of any law, ordinance, governmental rule, regulation or court decree to which it or its property or assets may be subject, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), any violations or defaults which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
     (xv) No Registration. It is not necessary in connection with (i) the offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities by the Company and the Guarantors to the several Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) the resales of the Offered Securities by the several Purchasers in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, to register the Offered Securities under the Securities Act or to qualify an indenture in respect thereof under the Trust Indenture Act, assuming the accuracy of and compliance with the Purchasers’ representations and agreements contained in this Agreement.
     (xvi) Security Documents. The Security Documents which were executed on or prior to the Closing Date have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto), conform to the description thereof contained in the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular and constitute legal, valid and binding instruments enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto) in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. The Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto) have taken reasonable best efforts to prepare, execute and deliver the Security Documents referred to in the second sentence of Section 2(g) to which they are a party that will be executed following the Closing Date, and have duly authorized such Security Documents, and upon the execution and delivery of such Security Documents, such Security Documents will constitute legal, valid

-24-


 

and binding instruments enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto) in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
     (xvii) Security Interest. The Security Documents create a legally valid and enforceable security interest in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and the holders of the Offered Securities, in those items of Collateral in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as currently in effect in the State of New York, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
     (xviii) Perfection of Security Interest in UCC Collateral. Upon the execution and delivery by the parties thereto of the Security Documents, the Collateral Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as such term is defined in the Security Agreement) will have received a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Grantors in those items of Collateral in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as currently in effect in the State of New York (the “New York UCC”). The Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (the “Financing Statements”) are sufficient to perfect a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Grantors in the items and types of Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the applicable UCC. The Financing Statements to be filed in the offices set forth on a schedule to such counsel’s opinion are in appropriate form for filing in such offices. Following the satisfaction of the requirements for attachment described in the first sentence of this paragraph, and assuming that the Financing Statements have been properly recorded and filed in the office(s) set forth on such schedule, have not been released, terminated or modified and any required fees with respect thereto have been paid, the Collateral Trustee’s security interest for the benefit of the (i) Secured Parties under the Security Documents in the right, title and interests of the Grantors in the Collateral was and continues to be perfected under the applicable UCC, to the extent such security interest may be perfected under the applicable UCC by the filing of the Financing Statements.
     (xix) Perfection of Security Interest in Pledged Interests. Upon the delivery by the applicable Grantors to and the continued possession by the Collateral Trustee of the stock certificates representing the Initial Pledged Interests (as such term is defined the Security Agreement), except those interests in Technology Center of the Americas, LLC and Terremark Federal Group, Inc., accompanied by stock powers or other similar endorsements issued by each such Grantor in the name of the Collateral Trustee or executed in blank by a duly authorized representative of each such Grantor, the Collateral Trustee had and continues to have a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties under the Security Documents in the right, title and interests of the relevant Grantors in the Initial Pledged Interests, to the extent that such security interests can be perfected by possession or control of the Initial Pledged Interests.

     (xx) Disclosure. Such counsel has acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation of the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular, participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public accountants for the Company and Representatives of the Purchasers, during which the contents of the General Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular and related matters were discussed, and, although such counsel are not passing upon, and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the General Disclosure Package and Final Offering Circular (except to the extent specified otherwise in one of the other opinions above), on the basis of the information that was developed in the course of the performance of such counsel’s services, nothing came to such counsel’s attention that caused them to believe that (i) the General Disclosure Package (other than the financial statements, the related schedules and notes thereto and other financial data derived from the internal financial records of the Company included therein, as to which such counsel need express no belief), as of the Applicable Time or as of such Closing Date contained or contains an untrue statement of material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) the Final Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, (other than the financial statements, the related schedules and the notes thereto and other financial data derived from the internal financial records of the Company included therein, as to which such counsel need express no belief), as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date contained or contains an untrue statement of material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
The opinion of Greenberg Traurig described above shall be furnished to the Representative and addressed to the Purchasers at the request of the Company and shall so state therein.
     (d) Opinion of Local Counsel. The Company and the Guarantors have taken reasonable best efforts to deliver to the Purchasers an opinion, dated the Closing Date, of local counsel for NAP West, LLC, Technology Center of the Americas, LLC, and NAP of the Capital Region LLC, in states in which the real property is located, with respect to the enforceability and perfection of the mortgages and any related fixture filings that is substantially similar in form and substance to the opinion executed and delivered in connection with the Purchase Agreement, dated June 17, 2009, with respect to the Existing Notes, with such changes as may be satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Collateral Trustee, and the Company and the Guarantors will deliver such opinion to the Purchasers no later than 60 days following the Closing Date.
     (e) Opinion of Foreign Counsel. The Company and the Guarantors have taken reasonable best efforts to deliver to the Purchasers an opinion, dated the Closing Date, of foreign counsel for the foreign subsidiaries of the Company named in Schedule D hereto (each, an “Active Foreign Subsidiary”), with respect to the organization, existence and capitalization of, and certain defaults, conflicts and pending proceedings with respect to each Active Foreign Subsidiary that is substantially similar in form and substance to the opinion executed and delivered in connection with the Purchase

The Purchasers shall have received from Shearman & Sterling LLP, counsel for the Purchasers, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date, with respect to such matters as the Representatives may require, and the Company and the Guarantors shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
     (g) Officers’ Certificate. The Purchasers shall have received certificates, dated the Closing Date, of an executive officer of the Company and the Guarantors and a principal financial or accounting officer of the Company and the Guarantors in which such officers shall state that the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors in this Agreement are true and correct, that the Company and the Guarantors have complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on their part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date, and that, subsequent to the respective dates of the most recent financial statements in the General Disclosure Package, there has been no material adverse change, nor any development or event involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole except as set forth in the General Disclosure Package or as described in such certificate.
     (h) Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President, Finance. The Representative shall have received a certificate, dated as of the date hereof, of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s Senior Vice President, Finance, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representative, among others with respect to certain financial information contained in the General Disclosure Package.
     (i) Security Documents. Except as described in the next sentence, at the Closing Date, the Security Documents shall have been duly executed and delivered and be in full force and effect. The Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto) have taken reasonable best efforts to prepare, execute and deliver the certain other Security Documents referred to in the second sentence of Section 2(g) hereof, and will duly execute and deliver such Security Documents no later than 60 days following the Closing Date. Upon the execution and delivery of such Security Documents, such Security Documents will constitute legal, valid and binding instruments enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent each is a party thereto) in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

     8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication (including without limitation, any Supplemental Marketing Material), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of the information described as subsection (b) below.
          (b) Indemnification of Company. Each Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective directors and each of their respective officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Purchaser Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Purchaser Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of the following information in the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular furnished on behalf of each Purchaser: the information contained in the thirteenth full paragraph

-28-


 

under the caption “Plan of Distribution”, in respect with stabilizing and other transactions, and the second sentence of the eleventh full paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution”, in respect with market making by the Purchasers; provided, however, that the Purchasers shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.
          (c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action 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 (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.
          (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities 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 and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Purchasers. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors or the Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party

-29-


 

as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Securities purchased by it were resold exceeds the amount of any damages which such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint. The Company, the Guarantors and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 8(d).
     9. Default of Purchasers. If any Purchaser or Purchasers default in their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchaser or Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Offered Securities, Credit Suisse may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons, including any of the Purchasers, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Purchasers shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase. If any Purchaser or Purchasers so default and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Offered Securities and arrangements satisfactory to Credit Suisse and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Purchaser or the Company, except as provided in Section 10. As used in this Agreement, the term “Purchaser” includes any person substituted for a Purchaser under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Purchaser from liability for its default.
     10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective officers and of the several Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Purchaser, the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers is not consummated, the Company and the Guarantor shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchasers pursuant to Section 8 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(b), the Company and the Guarantors will reimburse the Purchasers for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.
