Section 4.3No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Holder of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach, violation or failure of (i) any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which such Holder is a party or by which such Holder is bound or to which any of the property or assets of such Holder, (ii) the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, as amended,By-laws or equivalent organizational document of such Holder, or (iii) any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over such Holder or any of its properties and assets, except for, with respect to clauses (i) and (iii), any for any such conflict, breach, violation or failure which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, operations, financial condition or results of operations of such Holder and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 4.4Ownership. Such Holder is (i) the sole beneficial owner and/or the investment advisor, authorized representative or manager for the beneficial owners of the Exchanged Notes (as defined herein), the principal amount of which is set forth on its signature page attached hereto, having the power to vote and dispose of such Exchanged Notes on behalf of such beneficial owners and (ii) entitled (for its own account or for the account of certain funds and/or accounts for which it acts as investment advisor) to all of the rights and economic benefits of such Exchanged Notes. There are no outstanding agreements, arrangements or understandings under which such Holder, its nominee or the beneficial owners of the Exchanged Notes for which such Holder acts as investment advisor may be obligated to transfer any of the Exchanged Notes, other than this Agreement. On the Closing Date, such Holder will be (i) the sole beneficial owner and/or the investment advisor, authorized representative or manager for the beneficial owners of the Exchanged Notes being exchanged by such Holder and (ii) entitled (for its own account or for the account of certain funds and/or accounts for which it acts as investment advisor) to all of the rights and economic benefits of such Exchanged Notes.

Article VIII:

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1Indemnification. The Obligors agree to indemnify each of the Holders and their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, members, managers and agents (each, a “Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands, and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them) (collectively, “Losses”), as a result of, arising out of, or resulting from any Third-Party Claim (as defined herein) asserted against such Indemnified Party arising from or in any way related to, or as a result of any action taken or purported to have been taken by such Indemnified Party in connection with the consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 8.2Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after any Indemnified Party has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third Person (other than the Company and its Affiliates or any other Holder or its Affiliates) (each a “Third-Party Claim”), which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Company prompt written notice of such Third-Party Claim or the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding, but failure to so notify the Company will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it

23

may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Company is prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such Third-Party Claim to the extent then known. The Company shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Company pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Company undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Company and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Company with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Company and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control;provided, that such disclosure would not affect any privilege relating to the Indemnified Party or result in a violation of law or any confidentiality obligation;provided,further, that such requesting party shall, if reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party, enter into a reasonably and customary confidentiality agreement relating to such request. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the reasonable cost of the Company, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to assist the Indemnified Party in connection with such cooperation. After the Company has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Company diligently pursues such defense, the Company shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability;provided,however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if the Company has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select its own counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of one such counsel (in addition to local counsel) and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Company as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (x) the Company shall not settle any indemnified Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party and (y) the Indemnified Party shall not settle any indemnified Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 8.3Limitation on Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company nor its Affiliates shall be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnified Party if a court of competent jurisdiction shall have finally determined that any Losses resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, from a willful and material breach by a Holder of its obligations under this Agreement or from a claim solely among the Indemnified Parties. To the extent that the Company or its Affiliates have provided indemnification pursuant to thisArticle VIII prior to any such determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, each Indemnified Party so determined to have suffered Losses as a result of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct shall promptly refund to the Company, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, any amounts so advanced by the Company or its Affiliates.
