(i)           Revolving Credit Loans shall, in each case, bear interest at:
 
(A)          During such periods that such Revolving Credit Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and
 
(B)           During such periods that such Revolving Credit Loan is a LIBOR Loan, for each Interest Period relating thereto, the LIBOR Rate for such Revolving Credit Loan for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; and
 
(b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay interest on any Loan or any installment thereof, and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder (to the extent permitted by law) which are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) for the period commencing on the due date thereof until the same is paid in full at the applicable Post-Default Rate.
 
(c)           Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Monthly Dates.  Interest that is payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand of the Agent.  Promptly after the establishment of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Agent will notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, provided that the failure of the Agent to so notify the Lenders and the Borrower shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any of the Notes in any respect.
 
(d)           Any and all amounts due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents which remain unpaid more than ten (10) days after the date said amount was due and payable shall incur a fee (the “Late Charge”) in the amount equal to the greater of (i) five percent (5%) of said unpaid amount, or (ii) $50.00, which payment shall be in addition to all of the Agent’s and the Lenders’ other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.
 
(e)           Anything in this Agreement or any of the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Borrower to make payments of interest shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to be made to any Lender to the extent that such Lender’s receipt thereof would not be permissible under the law or laws applicable to such Lender limiting rates of interest that may be charged or collected by such Lender.  Any such payments of interest that are not made as a result of the limitation referred to in the preceding sentence shall be made by the Borrower to such Lender on the earliest interest payment date or dates on which the receipt thereof would be permissible under the laws applicable to such Lender limiting rates of interest that may be charged or collected by such Lender.  Such deferred interest shall not bear interest.

Section 2.14
Pro Rata Treatment Among Lenders.
 
Except as otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1 hereof will be made from the Lenders and each payment of each Fee (other than the Application Fee and the Origination Fee) shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata according to the amount of their respective Revolving Percentage; (b) each partial reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders pro rata according to each Lender’s respective Revolving Percentage; (c) each payment and repayment of principal of or interest on Revolving Credit Loans will be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans held by such Lenders; and (d) each conversion of Revolving Credit Loans of a particular Type under Section 2.17 hereof (other than conversions provided for by Section 2.20 or 2.21 hereof) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders holding Revolving Credit Loans of such Type according to the respective principal amounts of such Revolving Credit Loans held by such Lenders.

 
23

 
 
Section 2.15
Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent.
 
Unless the Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or the Borrower (the “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Lender is to make payment to the Agent of the proceeds of a Loan to be made by it hereunder or the Borrower is to make a payment to the Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders, as the case may be (such payment being herein called the “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Agent, the Agent shall assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Agent the amount made available to it together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal (i) when the recipient is a Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for such day, or (ii) the rate of interest applicable to such Loan (when the recipient is the Borrower).
 
 
Section 2.16
Sharing of Payments and Set-Off Among Lenders.
 
The Borrower hereby agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it at any of its offices against any principal of or interest on any of its Loans hereunder or any Fee payable to it, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof, provided that its failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.  If a Lender shall effect payment of any principal of or interest or Fee on Loans held by it under this Agreement through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right, it shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders participations in the Loans held by the other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment pro rata in accordance with the unpaid amount of principal and interest or Fee on the Loans held by each of them.  To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Loans held by the other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.
 
24

 
 
Section 2.17
Conversion of Loans.
 
The Borrower shall have the right to convert Loans of one Type into Loans of another Type from time to time, provided that: (i) the Borrower shall give the Agent notice of each such conversion as provided in Section 2.2 hereof; (ii) LIBOR Loans may be converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loans; and (iii) no Base Rate Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Loan continued as or converted into another LIBOR Loan if on the proposed date of conversion a Default or an Event of Default exists.  The Agent shall use its best efforts to notify the Borrower of the effectiveness of such conversion, and the new interest rate to which the converted Loans are subject, as soon as practicable after the conversion; provided, however, that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations, or the Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights and remedies, hereunder in any way whatsoever.
 
 
Section 2.18
Additional Costs; Capital Requirements.
 
(a)           In the event that any existing or future law or regulation, guideline or interpretation thereof, by any court or administrative or Governmental Authority (foreign or domestic) charged with the administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority shall impose, modify or deem applicable or result in the application of, any capital maintenance, capital ratio or similar requirement against loan commitments made by any Lender hereunder, and the result of any event referred to above is to impose upon any Lender or increase any capital requirement applicable as a result of the making or maintenance of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or the obligation of the Borrower hereunder with respect to such Revolving Credit Commitment (which imposition of capital requirements may be determined by each Lender’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such capital increases or impositions), then, within ten (10) Business Days’ of demand made by such Lender as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge that such law, regulation, guideline, interpretation, request or directive exists and determines to make such demand, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender from time to time as specified by such Lender additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for such imposition of or increase in capital requirements together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at the Post-Default Rate.  All references to any “Lender” shall be deemed to include any participant in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment.
 
25

 
(b)           In the event that any Regulatory Change shall: (i) change the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement or the Notes in respect of any Loans including, without limitation, LIBOR Loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Lender for any such Loans by the United States of America or the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office); or (ii) impose or modify any reserve, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premium or assessment, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender (including any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Base Rate” in Article I hereof); or (iii) impose any other conditions affecting this Agreement in respect of Loans, including, without limitation, LIBOR Loans (or any of such extensions of credit, assets, deposits or liabilities); and the result of any event referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to increase such Lender’s costs of making or maintaining any Loans including, without limitation, LIBOR Loans, or its Revolving Credit Commitment, or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of its Commitment (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable are hereinafter referred to as “Additional Costs”) in each case, only to the extent, with respect to LIBOR Loans, that such Additional Costs are not included in the LIBOR Base Rate applicable to LIBOR Loans, then, within ten (10) Business Days’ of demand made by such Lender as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge that such a Regulatory Change exists and determines to make such demand (a copy of which demand shall be delivered to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in amounts receivable by such Lender from the date of such change, together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at the Post-Default Rate.  All references to any “Lender” shall be deemed to include any participant in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment.
 
(c)           Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either: (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender which includes LIBOR Loans, or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make, and to convert Loans of any other Type into, Loans of such Type hereunder shall be suspended until the date such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (and all Loans of such Type then outstanding shall be converted into Base Rate Loans or into LIBOR Loans of another duration as the case may be, in accordance with Sections 2.17 and 2.21).
 
(d)           Determinations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 2.18 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of making or maintaining Loans or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the additional amounts required to compensate such Lender in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be set forth in writing in reasonable detail describing the Additional Costs together with a calculation demonstrating the allocation to the Borrower of such Additional Costs.
 
 
Section 2.19
Limitation on Types of Loans.
 
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of an interest rate for any LIBOR Loans for any Interest Period therefor, the Required Lenders reasonably determine:
 
(a)           by reason of any event affecting the money markets in the United States of America or the London interbank market, quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining the rate of interest for such Loans under this Agreement; or
 
26

 
(b)           the rates of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Base Rate” in Article 1 hereof upon the basis of which the rate of interest on any LIBOR Loans for such period is determined, do not accurately reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such period;
 
then the Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof (and shall thereafter give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice of the cessation, if any, of such condition), and so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make Loans of such Type or to convert Loans of any other Type into Loans of such Type and the Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the  outstanding Loans of the affected Type either repay such Loans in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof or convert such Loan into Loans of another Type in accordance with Section 2.17 hereof.
 
 
Section 2.20
Illegality.
 
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to: (a) honor its obligation to make LIBOR Loans hereunder, or (b) maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Agent), describing such illegality in reasonable detail (and shall thereafter promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of the cessation, if any, of such illegality), and such Lender’s obligation to make LIBOR Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans hereunder shall, upon written notice given by such Lender to the Borrower, be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans and such Lender’s outstanding LIBOR Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans, in accordance with Sections 2.17 and 2.21 hereof.
 
 
Section 2.21
Certain Conversions pursuant to Sections 2.18 and 2.20.
 
If the Loans of any Lender of a particular Type (Loans of such Type are hereinafter referred to as “Affected Loans” and such Type is hereinafter referred to as the “Affected Type”) are to be converted pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.20 hereof, such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans, or LIBOR Loans of another Type, as the case may be (the “New Type Loans”), on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the Affected Loans (or, in the case of a conversion required by subsection 2.18(b) or Section 2.20 hereof, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Agent) and, until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 2.18 or 2.20 hereof which gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:
 
(a)           to the extent that such Lender’s Affected Loans have been so converted, all repayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its New Type Loans;
 
(b)           all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as Loans of the Affected Type shall be made instead as New Type Loans and all Loans of such Lender which would otherwise be converted into Loans of the Affected Type shall be converted instead into (or shall remain as) New Type Loans.
 
27

 
 
Section 2.22
Indemnification.
 
The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for any loss (including loss of profit), cost or expense incurred by such Lender (as reasonably determined by such Lender) as a result of:
 
(a)           any payment or repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan held by such Lender on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan except pursuant to Sections 2.18 or 2.20 hereof; or
 
(b)           any failure by the Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Loan held by such Lender (other than that caused by a failure of such Lender to fund such LIBOR Loan) on the date for such borrowing specified in the relevant Borrowing Notice under Section 2.2 hereof,
 
such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to: (i) any loss or expense suffered by such Lender during the period from the date of receipt of such early payment or repayment or the date of such conversion to the last day of such Interest Period if the rate of interest obtainable by such Lender upon the redeployment of an amount of funds equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of such payment, repayment or conversion or failure to borrow or convert is less than the rate of interest applicable to such LIBOR Loan for such Interest Period, or (ii) any loss or expense suffered by such Lender in liquidating LIBOR deposits prior to maturity which correspond to such Lender’s pro rata share of such payment, repayment, conversion, failure to borrow or failure to convert.  The determination by each such Lender of the amount of any such loss or expense, when set forth in a written notice to the Borrower, containing such Lender’s calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall be presumed correct, in the absence of manifest error.
 
 
Section 2.23
Special Provisions Regarding Defaulting Lenders.
 
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
 
(a)           fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.7(a);

Section 9.6
Non-Reliance on Agent and other Lenders.

(ii)           in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Interest Rate Contract to which such Lender is a party, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, and whether through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim against each Loan Party or otherwise, such Lender shall be permitted to retain the full amount of such payment and shall not be required to share such payment with any other Lender.
 
(b)           Upon or following any acceleration by the Agent and the Lenders of the Obligations, in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of a Note, or interest or Fees thereon, or in respect of an Interest Rate Contract to which such Lender is a party, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, and whether through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim against each Loan Party or otherwise, in a greater proportion than any such payment obtained by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of the corresponding Note held by such Lender and any Interest Rate Contract to which such Lender is a party, then the Lender so receiving such greater proportionate payment shall purchase for cash from the other Lender or Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s or Lenders’ Loan as shall be necessary to cause such Lender receiving the proportionate overpayment to share the excess payment with each Lender.  For the purposes of this subsection 9.9(b), payments on Notes received by each Lender shall be in the same proportion as the proportion of: (A) the sum of: (x) the Obligations owing to such Lender in respect of the Note held by such Lender, plus (y) the Obligations owing to such Lender in respect of Interest Rate Contracts to which such Lender is party, if any, to (B) the sum of: (x) the Obligations owing to all of the Lenders in respect of all of the Notes, plus (y) the Obligations owing to all of the Lenders in respect of all Interest Rate Contracts to which any Lender is a party; provided, however, that, with respect to subsections 9.9(a)(i) and (b) above, if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from the Lender that received the proportionate overpayment, such purchase of Loans or payment of benefits, as the case may be, shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c)           Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Bank and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Note subject to such assignment (and also, to the extent required, any consent of the Borrower required pursuant to Section 10.13(a) above), the Agent shall:  (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, and (ii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.  Within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at their own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Bank has retained a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment retained by it hereunder.  Such new Note shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto.

 
68

 

(d)           Each Lender may, without the prior consent of the Agent, the other Lenders or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment, the Loans owing to it, and the Note held by it); provided, however, that:  (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
 
(e)           Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.13, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to any Loan Party furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of such Loan Party; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to such Loan Party received by it from such Lender.
 
(f)           Anything in this Section 10.13 to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Note to any Federal Reserve Bank (and its transferees) as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank.  No such assignment shall release the assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.

Now, therefore, as required by Section 4.1 of the Credit Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree, jointly and severally, as follows:

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.
 
Section 2.
Guaranty of Notes and Credit Agreement.
 
(a)          Each Subsidiary Guarantor jointly and severally does hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantee, as primary obligor and not as surety, unto the Agent and the Lenders:  (1) the full and prompt payment of (i) the principal of, and interest on the Revolving Credit Notes from time to time outstanding, as and when such payments shall become due and payable whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration or otherwise (including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest due on overdue payments of principal, or interest at the rate set forth in the Credit Agreement) and (ii) all fees (including, without limitation, any Fees) that shall become due and payable under the terms of the Credit Agreement, in each case, in federal or other immediately available funds of the United States of America which at the time of payment or demand therefor shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, (2) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Borrower of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed by the Borrower and the Loan Parties under the terms of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is a party, and (3) the full and prompt payment, (i) upon demand by Agent or any Lender of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any rights, privileges or liabilities in favor of the Lenders under or in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or under this Subsidiary Guaranty or in any consultation or action in connection therewith or herewith and (ii) all other Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement).  All amounts due, debts, liabilities and other obligations described in this Section 2 shall be hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations.”  
 
Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations whether currently existing or hereafter incurred or created.

 
A-2

 

(b)          To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall make a payment hereunder (a “Payment”) which, taking into account all other Payments previously or concurrently made by any of the other Guarantors (including, without limitation, the Parent Guarantor under its Guaranty), exceeds the amount which such Subsidiary Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate obligations satisfied by such Payment in the same proportion as such Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as hereinafter defined) in effect immediately prior to such Payment bore to the “Aggregate Allocable Amount” (as hereinafter defined) of all of the Guarantors (including, without limitation, the Parent Guarantor under its Guaranty) in effect immediately prior to the making of such Payment, then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Payment;  provided that each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of contribution and indemnification and any and all claims of such Subsidiary Guarantor against any other Guarantor, any endorser or against any of their property shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and satisfaction by the Borrower of its Guaranteed Obligations and by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their obligations under this Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party, and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of contribution and indemnification, and no Subsidiary Guarantors shall accept any payment in respect of such right of contribution and indemnification, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all amounts payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder (and by the Parent Guarantor under its Guaranty) have indefeasibly been finally paid in cash in full and all of the Guaranteed Obligations have otherwise been satisfied in full.
 
As of any date of determination, (1) the “Allocable Amount” of any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount which could then be claimed by the Agent and Lenders under this Subsidiary Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. Sec. 101 et. seq.) or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law; and (2) the “Aggregate Allocable Amount” shall be equal to the sum of each Guarantor’s Allocable Amount.
 
This clause (b) is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this clause (b) is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts to the Agent and Lenders as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance herewith.
 
Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of any Guarantor (including the Parent Guarantor and any other Subsidiary Guarantor) to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

Section 3.
Guaranty of Payment and Performance.

This is an irrevocable, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance (but not of collection) and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to require that any action on or in respect of any Revolving Credit Loan, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Guaranteed Obligation be brought against the Borrower or any other Person or that resort be had to any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Subsidiary Guaranty or any other remedy.  Agent and any Lender may, at its option, proceed hereunder against any Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when due, the payment of which is guaranteed hereby, without first proceeding against the Borrower or any other Person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for this Guaranty or any other remedy.  The liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected or impaired by any acceptance by Agent or any Lender of any direct or indirect security for, or other guaranties of, any Indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Borrower or any other Person to Agent or any Lender or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by Agent or any Lender to realize upon or protect any such guarantees, Indebtedness, liability or obligation or any notes or other instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security therefor or by any approval, consent, waiver, or other action taken, or omitted to be taken by Agent or any such Lender.
 
The covenants and agreements on the part of the Subsidiary Guarantors herein contained shall take effect as joint and several covenants and agreements, and references to the Subsidiary Guarantors shall take effect as references to each of them and none of them shall be released from liability hereunder by reason of the guarantee ceasing to be binding as a continuing security on any other of them.
 
Section 4.

provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Subsidiary Guaranty and the parties hereto that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with their respective terms whenever the same shall become due and payable as in the Credit Agreement provided, at the place specified in and all in the manner and with the effect provided in the Credit Agreement, as each may be amended or modified from time to time.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Borrower shall default under or in respect of the terms of the Revolving Credit Loans or the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Borrower under the Revolving Credit Loans or the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party, this Subsidiary Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.

(e)          To the extent of any payments made under this Subsidiary Guaranty, the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be subrogated to the rights of the Agent or any Lenders upon whose Guaranteed Obligations such payment was made, but each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation and any and all claims of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower, any endorser or other Guarantor or against any of their respective properties shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and satisfaction by the Borrower of its Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party and by the Subsidiary Guarantors of their obligations under this Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party, and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of subrogation, and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not accept any payment in respect of such right of subrogation, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder have indefeasibly been finally paid in cash in full and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party have been satisfied.  Notwithstanding any right of any Subsidiary Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from the Borrower, all rights, Liens and security interests of each Subsidiary Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of the Borrower shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights, if any, of the Agent and the Lenders in those assets.  No Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in cash in full and satisfied.

 
A-8

 
 
(f)          Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that to the extent the Borrower or any other Person makes any payment on any Guaranteed Obligation, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made.  The liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to Agent or any Lender from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.
 
(g)          Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation:  (1) to marshall any assets in favor of the Subsidiary Guarantors (or Parent Guarantor) or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Borrower under or in respect of Guaranteed Obligations or under any Loan Documents or (2) to pursue any other remedy that the Subsidiary Guarantors (or Parent Guarantor) may or may not be able to pursue themselves and that may lighten the Subsidiary Guarantors’ (or Parent Guarantor’s) burden, any right to which each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
 
(h)         Each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly authorizes the Agent to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations.  The Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any security held by it by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise ay other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full in cash.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security.

               (2)          Neither such Subsidiary Guarantor nor any of its subsidiaries is in default under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws and Regulations) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
 
(g)          Each Subsidiary Guarantor expects to derive a direct benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body had determined that it may reasonably be expected to derive such benefit) from:  (1) the Revolving Credit Loans and the Intercompany Loans to finance its business; (2) the successful operations of Borrower and each other Subsidiary Guarantor individually and as a group; (3) its rights of contribution and subrogation against the Borrower and each other Subsidiary Guarantor as provided herein or under applicable law; and (4) the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

A-12

 
 
(c)          Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 6 applies equally to Agent and all Lenders affected thereby and is binding upon them and upon each future Lender and upon the Subsidiary Guarantors.  No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant or agreement not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing between the Subsidiary Guarantors, Agent and any Lender nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights of Agent or any Lender.  As used herein, the term “this Subsidiary Guaranty” and references thereto shall mean this Subsidiary Guaranty as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

Section 8.
Miscellaneous .
 
(a)          No Remedy Exclusive.  No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Agent or any Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Subsidiary Guaranty now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.  No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.  In order to entitle Agent or any Lender to exercise any remedy reserved to it under this Subsidiary Guaranty, it shall not be necessary for Agent or such Lender to physically produce its Revolving Credit Note in any proceedings instituted by it or to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.
 
(b)          Payments.  The Subsidiary Guarantors will pay all sums becoming due under this Subsidiary Guaranty by the method and at the address specified for such purpose for Agent or such Lender in Article 2 and Section 10.3 of the Credit Agreement, or by such other method or at such other address as Agent or any Lender shall have from time to time specified to the Subsidiary Guarantors or the Borrower on behalf of the Subsidiary Guarantors in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this Subsidiary Guaranty or any Revolving Credit Note.

(d)       Contribution and Subrogation.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor (a “Contributing Party”) agrees (but subject to the terms, restrictions and limitations set forth in this Subsidiary Guaranty) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder in respect of any obligation or assets of any other Subsidiary Guarantor (other than Parent Guarantor or the Borrower) shall be sold pursuant to any Collateral Document to satisfy any Guaranteed Obligation owed to Agent or any Lender and such other Subsidiary Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 8(c), the Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Subsidiary Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to the terms hereof, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Subsidiary Guarantor).  Any Contributing Party making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section shall (subject to Section 8(c) above) be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party to the extent of such payment.
 
(e)          Partial Unenforceability.  Any provision of this Subsidiary Guaranty 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.
 
(f)          Continued Enforceability.  If the whole or any part of this Subsidiary Guaranty shall be now or hereafter become unenforceable against any one or more of the Subsidiary Guarantors for any reason whatsoever or if it is not executed by any one or more of the Subsidiary Guarantors, this Subsidiary Guaranty shall nevertheless be and remain fully binding upon and enforceable against each other Guarantor as if it had been made and delivered only by such other Subsidiary Guarantors.
 
(g)          Successors and Assigns.  This Subsidiary Guaranty shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Agent and each Lender and its successors and assigns so long as its Revolving Credit Loans and the other Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding and unpaid.  
 
 
A-14

 
 
(h)          Counterparts.  This Subsidiary Guaranty 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.
 
(i)           Choice of Law.  This Subsidiary Guaranty 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 require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

Recitals:
 
A.           Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, is a subsidiary of Cornerstone Healthcare Plus Operating Partnership, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Borrower”).
 
B.           The Borrower has entered into that certain Credit Agreement dated as of November 19, 2010 (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, KeyBank National Association, as Agent (the “Agent”) and each of the Lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), providing for, among other things, Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower of up to $25,000,000 (herein, and as defined in the Credit Agreement, the “Revolving Credit Loans”).
 
C.           The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans will be used by Borrower to provide funds (each, an “Intercompany Loan”) from time to time to each Subsidiary Guarantor (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to purchase or refinance an Eligible Facility (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that is owned or operated by such Subsidiary Guarantor.  
 
D.           Each Intercompany Loan will be evidenced by an Intercompany Note (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from each such Subsidiary Guarantor, which Intercompany Note will be assigned (including an assignment of Mortgagor’s Intercompany Note contemporaneously herewith) to Agent as collateral for all of the Revolving Credit Loans.
 
E.           Mortgagor is a Subsidiary Guarantor under that certain Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement dated as of [November ___], 2010 [as supplemented by that certain Guaranty Supplement dated of even date herewith] (as supplemented, modified or amended from time to time, the “Subsidiary Guaranty”) providing a guarantee of all of Borrower’s Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
 
F.            The below defined Property is an Eligible Facility.

F.            The Agent and the Lenders have required as a condition of their making Revolving Credit Loans from time to time that the Borrower cause the Mortgagor to enter into this Mortgage, and the Borrower has agreed to cause the undersigned Mortgagor to execute this Mortgage, in order to induce the Agent and the Lenders to make the Revolving Credit Loans and thereby benefit the Borrower and its Subsidiaries by providing funds to the Borrower for the purposes described in Schedule 2.8 of the Credit Agreement.
 
Now, therefore, as required by the Credit Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, Mortgagor does hereby covenant and agree as follows:

A-7

 

(b) Payment of all obligations at any time owing under (1) the  various promissory notes (the “Note”) dated as of November 18, 2010, payable by Borrower, as maker in the aggregate principal amount of Twenty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) to the order of Lenders, (2) that certain Intercompany Note of the Mortgagor dated as of the date hereof payable to Borrower and assigned to Agent, (3) those certain Intercompany Notes of the other Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time, as maker(s), payable to Borrower and assigned to Agent (together with the Note, the “Notes”), and (4) the Subsidiary Guaranty;
 
(c) Payment and performance of all Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty);
 
(d) Payment and performance of all obligations of Mortgagor under this Mortgage;
 
(e) Payment and performance of all obligations of Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
 
(f) Payment and performance of any obligations of Mortgagor and the other Loan Parties (including each other Subsidiary Guarantor) under the other Loan Documents;
 
(g) Payment and performance of all future advances and other obligations that Mortgagor or any successor in ownership of all or part of the Property may agree to pay and/or perform (whether as principal, surety or guarantor) for the benefit of Mortgagee, when a writing evidences the parties’ agreement that the advance or obligation be secured by this Mortgage; and
 
(h) Payment and performance of all modifications, amendments, extensions, and renewals, however evidenced, of any of the Secured Obligations.
 
1.2.2       All persons who may have or acquire an interest in all or any part of the Property will be considered to have notice of, and will be bound by, the terms of the Secured Obligations and each other agreement or instrument made or entered into in connection with each of the Secured Obligations.  Such terms include any provisions in the Notes or the Credit Agreement which permit borrowing, repayment and reborrowing, or which provide that the interest rate on one or more of the Secured Obligations may vary from time to time.
 
SECTION 2      Assignment of Rents.
 
2.1                       Assignment.  Mortgagor hereby irrevocably, absolutely, presently and unconditionally assigns to Mortgagee all rents, royalties, issues, profits, revenue, income, accounts, proceeds and other benefits of the Property, whether now due, past due or to become due, including all prepaid rents and security deposits (some or all collectively, as the context may require, “Rents”).  This is an absolute assignment, not an assignment for security only.
 
2.2                        Grant of License.  Mortgagee hereby confers upon Mortgagor a license (“License”) to collect and retain the Rents as they become due and payable, so long as no Event of Default, as defined in Section 6.2 below, shall exist and be continuing.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee shall have the right, which it may choose to exercise in its sole discretion, to terminate this License without notice to or demand upon Mortgagor, and without regard to the adequacy of Mortgagee’s security under this Mortgage.
 
 
A-8

 
 
2.3                       Collection and Application of Rents.  Subject to the License granted to Mortgagor under Section 2.2 above, Mortgagee has the right, power and authority to collect any and all Rents.  Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts (if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) if and at the times when Mortgagee in its sole discretion may so choose:
 
2.3.1       Demand, receive and enforce payment of any and all Rents; or
 
2.3.2       Give receipts, releases and satisfactions for any and all Rents; or
 
2.3.3       Sue either in the name of Mortgagor or in the name of Mortgagee for any and all Rents.
 
Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that the mere recordation of the assignment granted herein entitles Mortgagee immediately to collect and receive rents upon the occurrence (and during the continuance) of an Event of Default without first taking any acts of enforcement under applicable law, such as, but not limited to, providing notice to Mortgagor, filing foreclosure proceedings, or seeking and/or obtaining the appointment of a receiver.  Further, Mortgagee’s right to the Rents does not depend on whether or not Mortgagee takes possession of the Property as permitted under Subsection 6.3(c).  In Mortgagee’s sole discretion, Mortgagee may choose to collect Rents either with or without taking possession of the Property.  Mortgagee shall apply all Rents collected by it in the manner provided under Section 6.6.  If an Event of Default occurs while Mortgagee is in possession of all or part of the Property and is collecting and applying Rents as permitted under this Mortgage, Mortgagee and any receiver shall nevertheless be entitled to exercise and invoke every right and remedy afforded any of them under this Mortgage and at law or in equity.
 
 
A-9

 
 
2.4                      Mortgagee Not Responsible.  Under no circumstances shall Mortgagee have any duty to produce Rents from the Property.  Regardless of whether or not Mortgagee, in person or by agent, takes actual possession of the Premises and Improvements, unless Mortgagee agrees in writing to the contrary, Mortgagee is not and shall not be deemed to be:
 
2.4.1       A “mortgagee in possession” for any purpose; or
 
2.4.2       Responsible for performing any of the obligations of the lessor under any lease; or
 
2.4.3       Responsible for any waste committed by lessees or any other parties, any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property; or
 
2.4.4       Liable in any manner for the Property or the use, occupancy, enjoyment or operation of all or any part of it.
 
2.5                      Leasing.  Mortgagor shall not accept any deposit or prepayment of rents under the leases for any rental period exceeding one (1) month without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
