(d)

By executing and delivering an assignment and acceptance agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee.  

(e)

The DIP Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of the Obligations and the other rights and interests of the DIP Lender (the “Originating DIP Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating DIP Lender shall remain a “DIP Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations and the other rights and interests of the Originating DIP Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “DIP Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating DIP Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating DIP Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating DIP Lender in connection with the Originating DIP Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) the DIP Lender shall not transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through the DIP Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) change the amount or due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums, and (v) all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if the DIP Lender had not sold such participation.  The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating DIP Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the Borrower, the Collections of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations.  No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the DIP Lender.

(f)

In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, the DIP Lender may disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to any Loan Party and their respective businesses.

13.2

Successors

.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the DIP Lender’s prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall



- 29 -





be absolutely void ab initio.  No consent to assignment by the DIP Lender shall, unless otherwise provided in such consent, release Borrower from its Obligations.  The DIP Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 13.1, no consent or approval by Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

15.3

Reliance by DIP Lender

.  DIP Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by DIP Lender.  DIP Lender shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless DIP Lender shall first receive such advice as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, DIP Lender shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable.  

15.4

Notice of Default or Event of Default

.  DIP Lender shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to DIP Lender and, except with respect to Events of Default of which the DIP Lender has actual knowledge, unless the DIP Lender shall have received written notice from the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  The DIP Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any.  

15.5

Waiver of Certain Claims and Counterclaims

.  In no event shall the DIP Lender have any liability to the Borrower for lost profits or other special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (other than any such damages resulting solely from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the DIP Lender, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), and the Borrower expressly waives any and all right to assert any such claims.  The



- 31 -





Borrower further waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs, recoupment, or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto.  No officer of any DIP Lender has any authority to waive, condition, or modify the provisions of this section.

15.6

Collateral Matters.

(a)

The DIP Lender shall release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if Borrower certifies to the DIP Lender that the sale or disposition is permitted under Section 6.4 (and the DIP Lender may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property in which Borrower or its Subsidiaries owned no interest at the time DIP Lender’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, or (iv) constituting property leased to Borrower or its Subsidiaries under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement.  The DIP Lender may credit bid and purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof under the provisions of the Code, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, at any sale thereof conducted under any of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Sections 363 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or at any sale or foreclosure (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law.  Upon request by Borrower at any time, the DIP Lender will confirm in writing its authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.6; provided, however, that (1) DIP Lender shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in DIP Lender’s opinion, would expose DIP Lender to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.  The DIP Lender may at its option and in its sole discretion subordinate any Lien granted to or held by DIP Lender under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property if such Permitted Lien secures Permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness.

(b)

In connection with any Permitted Disposition or other disposition consented to by the DIP Lender, the DIP Lender shall promptly execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence the termination or release of Liens on the assets the subject of such disposition.

16.6

Counterparts; Electronic Execution

.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.  The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

16.7

Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations

.  If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by Borrower or the transfer to the DIP Lender of any property should for any reason subsequently be asserted, or declared, to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the DIP Lender is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the DIP Lender is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of the DIP Lender related thereto, the liability of Borrower automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

16.8

DIP Lender Expenses

JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

Each Loan Party acknowledges, represents and warrants the following:  

17.1

Inducement.

  The DIP Lender has been induced to make the Loans to Borrower in part based upon the assurances by each Loan Party that each Loan Party desires that the Loans be honored and enforced as separate obligations of each Loan Party, should the DIP Lender desire to do so.  



- 33 -





17.2

Combined Liability.

  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loans and the other obligations of Loan Parties constitute the joint and several obligations of each and every Loan Party, and the DIP Lender may at its option enforce the entire amount of the Loans and the other obligations of the Loan Parties against any one or more Loan Parties.

17.3

Separate Exercise of Remedies.

 The DIP Lender may exercise remedies against each Loan Party and its property separately, whether or not the DIP Lender exercises remedies against any other Loan Party or its property.  The DIP Lender may enforce one or more Loan Parties’ Obligations without enforcing any other Loan Party’s Obligations.  Any failure or inability of the DIP Lender to enforce one or more Loan Parties’ Obligations shall not in any way limit the DIP Lender’s rights to enforce the Obligations of any other Loan Party.  If DIP Lender forecloses or exercises similar remedies on any Collateral, then such foreclosure or similar remedy shall be deemed to reduce the balance of the Loans only to the extent of the cash proceeds actually realized by the DIP Lender from such foreclosure or similar remedy or, if applicable, the DIP Lender’s credit bid at such sale, regardless of the effect of such foreclosure or similar remedy on the Loans secured by such Collateral under the applicable state law.
