In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, such indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party, unless: (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such indemnified party and the indemnifying party or any affiliate of the indemnifying party, and such indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice from counsel, that either (x) there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or such affiliate of the indemnifying party or (y) a conflict may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party or such affiliate of the indemnifying party (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to a single firm of local counsel) for all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by ___and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence, in which case the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.
(d) Settlements.The indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment.

21
shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request or disputed in good faith the indemnified party’s entitlement to such reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement.

Section 9.Contribution.If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (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 Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement 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 Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Guarantors, and the total discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other hand, 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, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8(c), any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 8 hereof with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 9; provided, however, that no additional notice
22
shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 8 hereof for purposes of indemnification.
The Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters 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 9.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discount received by such Underwriter in connection with the Securities underwritten by it and distributed exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of this Section 9, each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director, officer and employee of the Company or any Guarantor and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors.
Section 10.Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters.If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in the proportion that the aggregate principal amounts of such Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate principal amount of such Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representatives with the consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase such Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase such Securities and the aggregate principal amount of such Securities with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 17 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required
23
changes, if any, to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected.
As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 10. Any action taken under this Section 10 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
Section 11.Termination of this Agreement.Prior to the Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to the Company if at any time (i) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange, or trading in securities generally on either the Nasdaq Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such stock exchanges by the Commission or FINRA; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of federal or New York authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity involving the United States, or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic conditions, as in the judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the sale of securities; (iv) in the judgment of the Representatives there shall have occurred any Material Adverse Change; or (v) there shall have occurred a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services. Any termination pursuant to this Section 11 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Sections 4 and 6 hereof, and provided further that Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 17 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.
Section 12.No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Company and the Guarantors acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, and each of the Company and the Guarantors is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Guarantors with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or any of the Guarantors on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company or the Guarantors with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that
24
differ from those of the Company and the Guarantors and that the several Underwriters have no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate.
This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, the Guarantors and the several Underwriters with respect to the subject matter hereof. Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company or the Guarantors may have against the several Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.
Section 13.Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery.The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors, their respective officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement (i) will remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any (A) investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the officers or employees of any Underwriters, or any person controlling the Underwriter, the Company, the officers or employees of the Company, or any person controlling the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be or (B) acceptance of the Securities and payment for them hereunder and (ii) will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

EXHIBIT A-1
[Form of Opinion of Mayer Brown LLP delivered with respect to
the Company and the Delaware, New York and Illinois Guarantors]
(i) | | The Company is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware and has corporate power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture; the Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction listed in Schedule 1 hereto. |
|
(ii) | | Each of the Guarantors listed on Schedule 2 hereto (collectively, the “Covered Guarantors”) is validly existing as a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other legal entity, as the case may be, in good standing, to the extent applicable to such entity, under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, and each has corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus; each Covered Guarantor listed on Schedule 3 hereto is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity to transact business and is in good standing, to the extent applicable to such entity, in each jurisdiction listed on Schedule 3 hereto. |
|
(iii) | | This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and each of the Covered Guarantors. |
|
(iv) | | The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and each of the Covered Guarantors and (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee and the Guarantors that are not Covered Guarantors (collectively, the “Excluded Guarantors”)) constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company and each of the Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and each of the Guarantors in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except as rights to indemnification may be limited by applicable law and public policy considerations. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. |
|
(v) | | The Notes are in the form contemplated by the Indenture, have been duly authorized and executed and, when authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price as specified in the Underwriting Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar |
A-1
| | laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. |
(vi) | | The Guarantees of the Notes are in the form contemplated by the Indenture, have been duly authorized by each of the Covered Guarantors for issuance and sale pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture and have been executed by each of the Covered Guarantors and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Excluded Guarantors, when the Notes have been authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefore, will constitute valid and binding obligations of each of the Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Guarantors in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. |
|
(vii) | | The Securities and the Indenture conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus under the caption “Description of the Notes.” |
|
(viii) | | The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act) that has been filed with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date of the Underwriting Agreement and is currently effective; each of the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus was filed with the Commission in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act; and, to our best knowledge, no order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Securities Act has been received by the Company and no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act against the Company or in connection with the offering is pending or threatened by the Commission. |
|
(ix) | | The Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included in the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and related schedules therein and the Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1, in each case as to which we express no opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act; and the Indenture complies as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act. |
|
(x) | | The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus or any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the Closing Date (except for financial statements and |
A-2
| | schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and the Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1, in each case as to which we express no opinion), at the time they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act. |
(xi) | | The statements in each of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus under the caption “Description of the Notes,” insofar as such statements constitute a summary of the legal matters or documents referred to therein, fairly summarize, in all material respects, the matters referred to therein. |
|
(xii) | | The statements set forth in each of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus under the caption “Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations,” insofar as such statements constitute a summary of the United States federal tax laws referred to therein, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth therein, are true, correct and complete in all material respects. |
|
(xiii) | | The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Securities and the Indenture by the Company and the Covered Guarantors and the performance by the Company and the Covered Guarantors of their respective obligations thereunder (other than any indemnification provisions, as to which we express no opinion) (i) will not result in a violation of any provisions of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or the articles of incorporation, by-laws, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or limited liability company, partnership or limited partnership agreement of any of the Covered Guarantors, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of the Guarantors pursuant to any Existing Instrument filed as exhibits to the Company’s most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K or any material contract filed on Form 10-Q or Form 8-K after the date of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and (iii) will not result in a violation of any federal, New York State or Illinois law or regulation or any Delaware corporate law or regulation (in each case other than state securities or blue sky laws, as to which we express no opinion), or any judgment, order or decree of any federal, New York State, Illinois or Delaware court or governmental authority binding on the Company or any Covered Guarantor of which we are aware. |
|
(xiv) | | No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing under Delaware corporate law or with any federal, New York State or Illinois governmental authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Company and the Guarantors of this Agreement or the Indenture or the issuance and sale by the Company and the Guarantors of the Securities or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than (a) such as have been obtained or made, (b) as are required by FINRA and (c) such as may be required by applicable state “blue sky” or similar state or foreign securities laws. |
A-3
(xv) | | The Company is not, and after receipt of payment for the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus will not be, required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. |
