Upon surrender of the Note for redemption in accordance with such notice, the applicable Redemption Price for the Note (or any portion thereof) shall be paid by the Issuer to the Lender, and if less than 100% of the Note has been redeemed, the Issuer shall deliver to the Lender a new Note (or the surrendered Note with the proper notations made on Schedule A thereto to reflect the redemption) for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed. If the Note (or portion thereof) called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Note (or the applicable portion thereof) shall continue to bear interest from the Redemption Date (or other applicable redemption date) until the date on which the Redemption Price is paid therefor.

13.4 Recourse. Recourse under this Agreement and the Note shall be to the assets of the Issuer only and in no event to the officers, directors or stockholders of the Issuer.

13.5 Costs and Indemnification. As a condition to the Lender’s obligations hereunder and as a requisite for the Lender’s delivery of a signed execution copy hereof, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, the Lender and each of its Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, members, agents, and advisors (each an “Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against all liabilities, costs, expenses and damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, appraiser’s fees and court costs, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in any appeal, bankruptcy proceeding, or other proceeding, disbursements, settlement costs and other charges), to any such Indemnitee in connection with or as a result of (a) the negotiation, preparation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the performance by the Lender of their obligations hereunder or thereunder, as the case may be, (b)

12

the issuance of Note or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (c) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in Section 3 hereof or the failure by the Issuer to perform when and as required by any agreement or covenant contained herein, (d) the enforcement or protection of its rights under this Section or the Note made hereunder, including all such legal expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiation in respect of such Note, or any foreclosure on or other disposition or use of collateral securing the Obligations, if any, and (e) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee; provided, further, that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities shall not include declines in value of the Note.

13.6 Benefits of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Note, express or implied, shall give to any Person (other than the parties hereto, their successors hereunder and the Lender) any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement.

13.7 Payments Reduced for Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, any amounts payable by the Issuer in respect of the Note (including without limitation principal and interest) shall be paid net of any withholding tax that may be required under applicable law. It is the intention of the parties that accruals of interest, or payments of accrued and unpaid interest under the terms of this Agreement not be subject to the withholding of any taxes unless required under applicable law. The Issuer shall not withhold any taxes from any such accruals or payments to the Lender if the Lender provides the Issuer with properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding. Before withholding any taxes from any such accruals or payments, the Issuer shall consult with tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the Lender and shall notify the Lender if, after consulting such tax counsel, it reasonably determines that withholding is required. If any such accruals or payments to the Lender are subject to withholding tax, the Lender severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer for any taxes, additions to tax or interest thereon that may be imposed on the Issuer for any failure to withhold in respect of such accruals or payments other than any interest or additions to tax that are imposed as a result of the gross negligence of the Issuer.

13.8 Survival. The Issuer’s indemnification liabilities under Section 13.5 and Section 13.7 shall remain in full force and effect after the termination of this Agreement regardless of the reason for such termination.

13.9 Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires, the words “hereof”, “hereby” and “herein” and words of similar meaning when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular Section or provision of this Agreement. References to “or” shall be deemed to be disjunctive but not necessarily exclusive (i.e., unless the context dictates otherwise, “or” shall be interpreted to mean “and/or” rather than “either/or”). Each Party acknowledges that this Agreement was negotiated by it with the benefit of representation by legal counsel, and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement to be construed or interpreted against any Party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof.
