Remedies
5. The Agreement is amended by adding the following as Section 10 e):
“The Borrower agrees that in the event the Bank determines to liquidate or sell any Collateral, the Bank shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have the right to do so in any manner, including, without limitation, the sale of Collateral individually or in a block, for cash or for credit, in a public or private sale, with or without public notice, through the use of sealed bids or otherwise, with the aid of any advisor or agent who may be an affiliate of the Bank or in any other manner as the Bank in its sole discretion shall choose. The Borrower acknowledges that the price the Bank obtains for Collateral in the Bank’s chosen method of sale may be lower than might be otherwise obtained in another method of sale, and the Borrower hereby agrees that any such sale shall not be considered to be not commercially reasonable solely because of such lower price. The Borrower understands that there may not be a liquid market for the Collateral and that, as a result, the price received for the Collateral upon liquidation or sale by the Bank may be substantially less than the Borrower paid for such Collateral or than the last market value available for it, if any. The Borrower further agrees that any sale by the Bank shall not be considered to be not commercially reasonable solely because there are few (including only one) or no third parties who submit bids or otherwise offer to buy the Collateral. The Borrower understands that the Bank’s sale of any of the Collateral may be subject to various state and federal property and/or securities laws and regulations, and that compliance with such laws and regulations may result in delays and/or a lower price being obtained for the Collateral. The Borrower agrees that the Bank shall have the right to restrict any prospective purchasers to those who, in the Bank’s sole discretion, the Bank deems to be qualified. The Borrower acknowledges that the Bank shall have sole authority to determine, without limitation, the time, place, method of advertisement and manner of sale and that the Bank may delay or adjourn any such sale in its sole discretion. The Borrower expressly authorizes the Bank to take any action with respect to the Collateral as the Bank deems necessary or advisable to facilitate any liquidation or sale, and the Borrower agrees that the Bank shall not be held liable for taking or failing to take any such action, regardless if a greater price may have been obtained for the Collateral if such action was or was not taken, as applicable. The Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any legal right of appraisal, notice, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption that the Borrower would otherwise have with respect to a sale of the Collateral.”
Representations, Warranties and Covenants by the Loan Parties
6. The Agreement is amended by adding the following as Section 11 g):
| “g) | If at any time there are Credit Line Obligations outstanding under the Credit Line, then in connection with any ARS Collateral, if at any time any such ARS Collateral may be sold, exchanged, redeemed, transferred or otherwise conveyed by the Borrower for gross proceeds that are, in the aggregate, not less than the par value of such Auction Rate Securities to any party, including, without limitation, to UBS Financial Services Inc. and/or any of its affiliates (any such sale, exchange, redemption, transfer or conveyance referred to herein as an “ARS Liquidation”), the Borrower agrees (i) to immediately effect such ARS Liquidation to the extent necessary to satisfy all Credit Line Obligations in full and (ii) that the proceeds of any such ARS Liquidation so effected shall be immediately and automatically used to pay down any and all such outstanding Credit Line Obligations to the extent of such proceeds. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees with the Bank and directs UBS Financial Services Inc. that to the extent permitted by applicable law, this Section 11 g) shall constitute an irrevocable instruction, direction and standing sell order to UBS Financial Services Inc. to effect an ARS Liquidation to the extent it is possible to do so at any time during the term of this Agreement. The Borrower further agrees with the Bank and UBS Financial Services Inc. to execute and deliver to the Bank and/or UBS Financial Services Inc. such further documents and agreements as may be necessary in the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank and/or UBS Financial Services Inc. to effect the foregoing irrevocable instruction, direction and standing sell order.” |
Waivers
7. The Agreement is amended by adding the following as Section 21:
“The Borrower hereby (i) acknowledges and admits its indebtedness and obligations to the Bank under the Agreement; and (ii) acknowledges, admits and agrees that it has no and shall assert no defenses, offsets, counterclaims or claims in respect of its obligations under the Agreement, in each case notwithstanding any claim or asserted claim that it may have, or purport to have, against any affiliate of the Bank.”

Re: Account Number (the “Account”)
ADDENDUM TO CLIENT’S AGREEMENT
The attached “Credit Line Agreement” sets forth certain terms related to the extension of credit by UBS Bank USA (The “Bank”) with respect to certain assets held through the above-referenced non-discretionary corporate cash management Account with UBS Financial Services Inc. (the “Firm”). The party signing this Addendum as Client where indicated below (the “Client”) understands and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in either the Credit Line Agreement (including without limitation Section 19 of the Credit Line Agreement) or the existing Corporate Cash Management Account Agreement applicable to the Account, as amended from time to time (the “Account Agreement”), the terms of the Credit Line Agreement supplement, but do not replace, the existing Account Agreement as follows: (i) the terms of the Credit Line Agreement (as amended from time to time, in accordance with its terms) shall govern with respect to any matters, issues or disputes related directly to, or arising directly from, the extension of credit and/or the status of Client as borrower and the Bank as lender pursuant to the Credit Line Agreement (e.g., matters relating to the loan account(s) established at the Bank pursuant to the Credit Line Agreement, and/or the indemnification of the Bank as a lender); and (ii) the terms of the Account Agreement (as amended from time to time, in accordance with its terms) shall govern with respect to all other matters (e.g., matters relating to the Account established at the Firm pursuant to the Account Agreement, the Firm’s trading authority and activities and/or the indemnification of the Firm for the services it provides under the Account Agreement).
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Client further understands and agrees that:
(A) If applicable, Client may continue to receive certain reporting relative to the Account from its Financial Advisor that are in addition to the official monthly statements that the Firm provides (“Financial Advisor Reports”). As noted in the disclaimer page for those Financial Advisor Reports, the Financial Advisor Reports are for informational purposes only and Client should rely on the Firm’s monthly account statements and trade confirmations as the official records relative to the Account. There may be differences between the Financial Advisor Reports and the Firm’s monthly statements and trade confirmations. The disclaimer page of the Financial Advisor Reports sets forth important terms and conditions applicable to the Financial Advisor Reports. Client’s receipt of Financial Advisor Reports constitutes Client’s agreement to, and acceptance of, those terms and conditions.
(B) Solely with respect to disputes arising out of the extension of credit and/or the status of Client as borrower and the Firm as lender pursuant to the Client’s Agreement, the choice of law provisions of Paragraph 17 of the Client’s Agreement and the arbitration provisions of Paragraph 19 of the Client’s Agreement shall govern. With respect to any other disputes relating to the Account, the terms of the Account Agreement regarding choice of law and the arbitration of disputes shall continue to govern.
(C) If Client elected or in the future elects to adopt the Firm’s “Addendum Granting Limited Authority to Invest in Money Market Funds For Non-Discretionary Corporate Cash Management Accounts,” the Firm may continue to exercise the limited discretion described therein with respect to the Account.
(D) If Client elected or in the future elects to adopt the “Investment Policy Submission Addendum For Non-Discretionary Corporate Cash Management Accounts,” the terms set forth therein shall continue to govern with respect to the Account and any investment policy statement associated with the Account.
