(f)

Deferral Pending Change of Control.

Section 8.8.

Make-Whole Amount.

“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal,provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.1(b), 8.2 or 8.7 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the ask-side yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury

-25-

securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest and, to the extent the Excess Leverage Fee is applicable at the time of any determination thereof, Excess Leverage Fee (assuming that Excess Leverage Fee would continue to be applicable) that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date,provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which payments of interest and Excess Leverage Fee are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled payments of interest and Excess Leverage Fee will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.1(b), 8.2 or 8.7 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

Section 8.9.

Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) subject to clause (y), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest

-26-

payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (y) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

Section 9.5.

Corporate Existence, Etc. The Company will at all times preserve and keep its corporate existence in full force and effect. Subject to Sections 10.4 and 10.5, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each of its Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 9.6.

Books and Records.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have devised a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that their respective books, records, and accounts accurately reflect all transactions and dispositions of assets and the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, continue to maintain such system.

Section 9.7.

Additional Subsidiaries.

(a)

Additional Domestic Subsidiaries. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, promptly after the creation or acquisition of any Domestic Subsidiary that is not an Excluded Subsidiary or any formerly Excluded Subsidiary ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary (and, in any event, within 45 days after such creation, acquisition or change (which change shall be determined and be deemed to have occurred at the time financial statements for the applicable period have been provided by the Company pursuant to this Agreement), as such time period may be extended by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) cause such Person or any other Person that guarantees the obligations under any Material Credit Facility to (i) become a Guarantor by delivering to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to each holder of Notes) a duly executed supplement to the Subsidiary Guaranty or such other document as the Required Holders shall deem appropriate for such purpose, (ii) grant a security interest in all Collateral (subject to the exceptions specified in the Security Agreement) owned by such Subsidiary by delivering to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to each holder of Notes) a duly executed supplement to each applicable Security Document or such other document as the Collateral Agent or the Required Holders shall deem appropriate for such purpose and comply with the terms of each applicable Security Document, (iii) deliver to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to each holder of Notes) such opinions, documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or the Required Holders, (iv) to the extent required by the Security Agreement, deliver to the Collateral Agent such original certificated Equity Interests or other certificates and stock or other

(b)

Additional Foreign Subsidiaries. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, notify the Collateral Agent and each holder of Notes promptly after any Person becomes a First Tier Foreign Subsidiary, and promptly thereafter (and, in any event, within 45 days after such notification, as such time period may be extended by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion), cause (i) the applicable Transaction Party to deliver to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to each holder of Notes) Security Documents pledging 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests (and 100% of the non-voting Equity Interests) of any such new First Tier Foreign Subsidiary and a consent thereto executed by such new First Tier Foreign Subsidiary (including, without limitation, if applicable, original certificated Equity Interests (or the equivalent thereof pursuant to the Applicable Laws and practices of any relevant foreign jurisdiction) evidencing the Equity Interests of such new First Tier Foreign Subsidiary, together with an appropriate undated stock or other transfer power for each certificate duly executed in blank by the registered owner thereof), (ii) such Person to deliver to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to each holder of Notes) such opinions, documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or the Required Holders, (iii) such Person to deliver to the Collateral Agent and the holders of Notes such updated Schedules to the Transaction Documents as requested by the Collateral Agent or the Required Holders with respect to such Person and (iv) such Person to deliver to the Collateral Agent such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent or the Required Holders, all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the Required Holders.

Section 9.9.

Excess Leverage Fee. In the event the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each of four consecutive fiscal quarters, the Company agrees that, in addition to interest accruing on the Notes, the Company will pay to each holder of a Note a fee at a rate per annum equal to 0.50% (each such fee, an“Excess Leverage Fee”) on the outstanding principal amount of each Note held by such holder during the period beginning on the Business Day after the Company delivers the Officer’s Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 7.2(a) for such fiscal quarter until the Business Day after the Company has

-30-

demonstrated that the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio has been 3.00 to 1.00 or less as of the last day of each of four consecutive fiscal quarters and the Company shall have delivered the Officer’s Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 7.2(a) for such fourth consecutive fiscal quarter. In the event the Company fails to deliver an Officer’s Compliance Certificate for any fiscal quarter, for purposes of this Section 9.9, the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be in excess of 3.00 to 1.00 for such fiscal quarter until such time as such Officer’s Compliance Certificate is delivered, and from and after the date such Officer’s Compliance Certificate is delivered, the applicability of the Excess Leverage Fee shall be determined by reference to the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter. The Excess Leverage Fee with respect to each Note shall be calculated on the same basis as interest on such Note is calculated and shall be paid in arrears at the same time accrued interest is paid on such Note. The payment of any Excess Leverage Fee shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default.

Section 9.10.

Most Favored Lender Status.

(a)

If the Company or any Subsidiary shall (i) enter into, assume or otherwise become bound by or obligated under any Material Credit Facility which contains one or more Additional Covenants or Additional Defaults, or (ii) amend any Material Credit Facility to include one or more Additional Covenants or Additional Defaults, then, in either case, the terms of this Agreement shall, without any further action on the part of the Company, any Subsidiary or any of the holders of the Notes, be deemed to be amended automatically to include each Additional Covenant or Additional Default contained in such Material Credit Facility. The Company further covenants to promptly execute and deliver at its expense (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the holders of the Notes for which invoices have been provided to the Company) an amendment to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders evidencing the amendment of this Agreement to include such Additional Covenants and Additional Defaults,provided that the execution and delivery of such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such amendment as provided for in this Section 9.10(a), but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto.

(b)

During any period when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Additional Covenant or Additional Default incorporated into this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.10(a) shall automatically without any action required to be taken by the Company or any holder of Notes be deemed deleted from this Agreement at such time as the Material Credit Facility containing such Additional Covenant or Additional Default is terminated and no amounts of principal or interest shall be outstanding thereunder and the Company shall promptly (but in any event within five Business Days from the occurrence thereof) provide written notice thereof to the holders of the Notes, which notice shall refer specifically to this Section 9.10, shall include a statement that no Default or Event of Default is then in existence and shall describe in reasonable detail the relevant Material Credit Facility which has been terminated and the Additional Covenant(s) or Additional Default(s) affected thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the covenants or defaults in this agreement be deleted or amended, restated or otherwise modified pursuant to this

-31-

Section 9.10 in a way that would be less beneficial, directly or indirectly, to the holders of the Notes than such covenants and defaults as in effect on the Closing Date (and as amended or modified other than pursuant to Section 9.10). Upon the request of the Company, the holders of the Notes shall, at the expense of the Company (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the holders of the Notes for which invoices have been provided to the Company), enter into an additional agreement, waiver or an amendment to this Agreement (as the Required Holders may request), evidencing the deletion of any such Additional Covenant or Additional Default as set forth above,provided that the execution and delivery of such amendment, waiver or agreement shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or agreement as provided for in this Section 9.10(b), but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto.

(a)

no amendment or waiver of any of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing;

(b)

no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of each Purchaser and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding, (i) subject to Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of (x) interest or Excess Leverage Fee on the Notes or (y) the Make-Whole Amount, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8 (except as set forth in the second sentence of Section 8.2 and Section 17.1(c)), 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20;provided, that only the consent of the Required Holders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Company to pay interest at the Default Rate during the continuance of an Event of Default; and

(c)

Section 8.5 may be amended or waived to permit offers to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions only with the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders.

Section 17.2.

Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a)

Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of a Note with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof, of the Notes, of any Subsidiary Guaranty or of any other Transaction Document. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 17, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other Transaction Document to each holder of a Note promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

(b)

Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or

-56-

otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of a Note as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by such holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Subsidiary Guaranty, of any Note or of any other Transaction Document unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of a Note even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

(c)

Section 17.3.

Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17, in any Subsidiary Guaranty or in any other Transaction Document applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and any holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note, Subsidiary Guaranty or other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.

Section 17.4.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

SECTION 20.

CONFIDENTIALINFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 20,“Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser on a non-confidential basis prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary from a third party that is not, to such Purchaser’s actual knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations to the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance

-58-

with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note or other security of a Transaction Party, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any Security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process (and, subject to clause (z) below, if not prohibited by Applicable Law, such Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the Company promptly of such disclosure), (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party (and, subject to clause (z) below, if not prohibited by Applicable Law, such Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the Company promptly of such disclosure) or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes, this Agreement, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other Transaction Document. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying this Section 20.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 20, this Section 20 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Company, this Section 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.

SECTION 21.

SUBSTITUTION OFPURCHASER.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a“Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser,

-59-

shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

SECTION 22.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 22.1.

Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

(a)

All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Indebtedness”), (i) any election by the Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 –Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 –Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made and (ii) any obligations arising under a lease that was accounted for by such Person as an operating lease as of the Closing Date and any similar lease entered into after the Closing Date by any Person shall be accounted for as obligations relating to an operating lease and not as a Capital Lease.

(b)

If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Transaction Document, and either the Company or the Required Holders shall so request, the holders of Notes and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Holders);provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Company shall provide to the holders of Notes financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting

-60-

forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Without limiting the foregoing, leases shall continue to be classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014 for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.

Section 22.3.

Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 22.4.

Construction, Etc. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Section 22.5.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

Section 22.6.

Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

Section 22.7.

Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)

The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b)

The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.7(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any

-61-

substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

(c)

Nothing in this Section 22.7 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

(d)

THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THISAGREEMENT, THENOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.
