The former Administrative Agent's resignation shall not become effective until such successor Administrative Agent has been appointed and has succeeded of record to all right, title and interest of the former Administrative Agent in the Purchased Interest; provided, however, that if the Requisite Purchasers cannot -------- ------- agree as to a successor Administrative Agent within ninety (90) days after such resignation, the Administrative Agent shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent and the parties hereto agree to execute whatever documents are necessary to effect such action under this Agreement or any other document executed pursuant to this Agreement; provided, further, however, in such event all -------- ------- ------- provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

The Purchasers agree that (i) with respect to all amounts received by each of them hereunder, whether in the nature of a return of any investment or discount, or amounts due to a particular Purchaser in respect of any fees hereunder, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among the Purchasers in proportion to the portion of the obligations due each Purchaser hereunder shall be shared by the Purchasers in proportion to the amounts due them hereunder, whether received by voluntary payment, or by the exercise of the right of set-off or Purchaser's lien or secured claims under the Bankruptcy Code, as now or hereafter amended, altered, modified or replaced, by counterclaim or cross-action or by the enforcement of this Agreement; (ii) if any of them shall exercise any right of counterclaim, set-off, Purchaser's lien or otherwise or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receives payment or reduction of any amounts due to such Purchaser hereunder, which is greater than the proportion received by any other Purchaser in respect of the amounts due hereunder to such other Purchaser, then the Purchaser receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (x) notify each other Purchaser and the Administrative Agent of such receipt and (y) purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in the amounts due hereunder to the other Purchasers so that all such recoveries of amounts due hereunder. If all or any portion of such payment is thereafter recovered from such Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 8.12 Independent Agreements.
