As of the Documentation Date and as of each Advance Date (provided, that any representation or warranty made as of a specific date need only be true as of such date), Lessee (in its capacity as both Lessee and Construction Agent) represents and warrants to each of the other parties hereto that: (a) General Matters. (i) Lessee is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and its failure to qualify to do business in any other jurisdiction where it is not so qualified has not had, and will not have, a Material Adverse Effect; and Lessee has all necessary corporate power to enter into and perform its obligations under each Lessee Operative Document and to lease the Properties under the Lease. (ii) The execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of each Lessee Operative Document have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not (A) violate any provision of its certificate of incorporation or (B) violate any provision of law applicable to such Lessee or by which it or its property may be bound, or result in the breach of or constitute a default or require any consent under, or result in the creation of any Lien (except as provided under the Operative Documents) upon any property or assets of Lessee pursuant to any indenture, agreement or instrument to which Lessee is a party or by which Lessee or its property may be bound, in any such case set forth in this clause (B) which has had, or would be reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect. Except with respect to the matters described in Section 5.1(o), neither the execution by Lessee of any Lessee Operative Document nor the performance by Lessee of its obligations under any Lessee Operative Document requires any license, consent or approval of, or notice to, or filing with, any Authority (other than customary building permits obtained in the ordinary course of business which Lessee has no reason 20 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT to believe will not be forthcoming). This Participation Agreement and each other Lessee Operative Document has been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights or by general equitable principles.

Neither Lessee nor any of its material subsidiaries is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Lessee shall pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) on or before the time or times set forth in Section 9.2(c) all Taxes indemnifiable by Lessee under Section 9.2(a); provided, however, that Lessee shall be under no obligation to pay any such Tax so long as the payment of such Tax is not delinquent or is being contested by a Permitted Contest. If any claim or claims is or are made against any Indemnitee for any Tax which is subject to indemnification as provided in Section 9.2(a), such Indemnitee shall, as soon as practicable, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after receipt of formal written notice of the Tax or proposed Tax, notify Lessee; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not limit Lessee's obligations under Section 9.2(a) except to the extent that such failure effectively precludes the ability to conduct a contest of any indemnifiable Taxes. The Indemnitee shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the written consent of Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 30 days after the receipt of such notice by Lessee; provided, however, that in the case of any such claim or proceeding, if such Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 30-day period, such Indemnitee shall in such notice to Lessee, so inform Lessee, and such Indemnitee shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Tax without the consent of Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 10 days after the receipt of such notice by Lessee, unless the Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 10-day period. Lessee shall be entitled for a period of 30 days from receipt of such notice from the Indemnitee (or such shorter period as the Indemnitee has notified Lessee is required by law or regulation for the Indemnitee to commence such contest), to request in writing that such Indemnitee permit Lessee to contest the imposition of such tax, at Lessee's sole cost and expense. If (x) such contest can be pursued in the name of Lessee and independently from any other proceeding involving a liability of such Indemnitee for which Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Indemnitee, (y) such contest must be pursued in the name of the Indemnitee, but can be pursued independently from any other proceeding involving a Tax liability of such Indemnitee for which Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Indemnitee or (z) the Indemnitee so requests, then Lessee shall be permitted to control the contest of such claim, provided that in the case of a contest described in any of clause (x), (y) or (z), if such Indemnitee reasonably determines that such contest by Lessee could have an adverse impact on the business or operations of the Indemnitee and Indemnitee provides notice to Lessee of such determination, the Indemnitee may elect to control or reassert control of the contest. In all other claims requested to be contested by Lessee, the Indemnitee shall control the contest of such claim, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to Lessee. In no event shall Lessee be permitted to contest (or the Indemnitee required to contest) any claim, (A) if such Indemnitee provides Lessee with a legal 54 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT opinion of independent counsel that such action, suit or proceeding involves a risk of imposition of criminal liability or will involve a meaningful risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on the Property or any part of any thereof, unless Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitee in respect to such risk, (B) if an Event of Default or a Lease Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitee in respect of the Taxes subject to such claim and any and all expenses for which Lessee is responsible hereunder reasonably foreseeable in connection with the contest of such claim, (C) unless Lessee shall have agreed to pay and shall pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) to such Indemnitee on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnitee may incur in connection with contesting such imposition, including all reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements as well as the impositions which are the subject of such claim to the extent the contest is unsuccessful, or (D) if such contest shall involve the payment of the Tax prior to the contest, unless Lessee shall provide to the Indemnitee an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the Imposition that the Indemnitee is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax costs (including Taxes) but taking into account any net tax savings associated with such advance to such Indemnitee). In addition, for Indemnitee controlled contests and claims contested in the name of the Indemnitee in a public forum, no contest shall be required: (A) unless the amount of the potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related claims that have been or could be raised in any audit involving such Indemnitee for which Lessee may be liable to pay an indemnity under this Section 9.2) exceeds $100,000 and (B) unless, if requested by the Indemnitee, Lessee shall have provided to the Indemnitee an opinion of independent tax counsel selected by the Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to Lessee) that a reasonable basis exists to contest such claim. In no event shall an Indemnitee be required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United States Supreme Court. The party conducting the contest shall consult in good faith with the other party and its counsel with respect to the contest of such claim for Taxes (or claim for refund) but the decisions regarding what actions to be taken shall be made by the controlling party in its sole judgment, provided, however, that if the Indemnitee is the controlling party and Lessee recommends the acceptance of a settlement offer made by the relevant Authority and such Indemnitee rejects such settlement offer, then the amount for which Lessee will be required to indemnify such Indemnitee with respect to the Taxes subject to such offer shall not exceed the amount which it would have owed if such settlement offer had been accepted. In addition, the controlling party shall keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed as to the progress of the contest, and shall provide the non-controlling party with a copy of (or appropriate excerpts from) any reports or claims issued by the relevant auditing agents or taxing authority to the controlling party thereof, in connection with such claim or the contest thereof. Each Indemnitee shall supply Lessee with such information and documents within such Indemnitee's possession reasonably requested by Lessee as are necessary or advisable for Lessee to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 9.2(b), and Lessee shall promptly reimburse such Indemnitee for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of supplying such information and documents. 55 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, an Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and Lessee shall not be permitted to contest) a claim with respect to the imposition of any Tax if (i) such Indemnitee shall waive its right to indemnification under this Section 9.2 with respect to such claim and shall pay to Lessee any amount previously paid or advanced by Lessee pursuant to this Section 9.2 or (ii) such Tax is the sole result of a claim of a continuing and consistent nature, which claim has previously been resolved against the relevant Indemnitee (unless a change in law or facts has occurred since such prior adverse resolution and Lessee provides, at Lessee's expense, an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnitee to the effect that it is more likely than not that such change in law or facts will result in a favorable resolution of the claim at issue). (c) Payments. Subject to Section 9.2(b), any Tax indemnifiable under Section 9.2(a) shall be paid directly when due to the applicable taxing authority if direct payment is practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the applicable taxing authority is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9.2(a) shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the amount so payable. Any payments made pursuant to Section 9.2(a) directly to the Indemnitee entitled thereto or Lessee, as the case may be, shall be made in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as specified by the payee in written directions to the payor, or, if no such direction shall have been given, by check of the payor payable to the order of the payee by certified mail, postage prepaid at its address as set forth in Schedule II. Subject to Section 9.2(b), upon the request of any Indemnitee with respect to a Tax that Lessee is required to pay, Lessee shall furnish to such Indemnitee the original or a certified copy of a receipt for its payment of such Tax or such other evidence of payment as is reasonably acceptable to such Indemnitee. If the Indemnitee has actual knowledge of Lessee's failure to pay any Tax required to be paid by Lessee hereunder, such Indemnitee shall notify Lessee of such failure within 30 days of such Indemnitee's obtaining such actual knowledge. Upon receipt by an Indemnitee of a refund or credit of all or part of any Taxes paid or indemnified against by Lessee, which refund or credit was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of Lessee's payment to such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall pay to Lessee, on a grossed-up basis as set forth in Section 9.4(b), an amount equal to the amount of such refund, plus any interest received by or credited to such Indemnitee with respect to such refund; provided, however, that as long as an Event of Default is continuing any such amounts may be applied against any amounts due and owing by Lessee under the Lease or the other Operative Documents; provided, further, however, that no Indemnitee shall be required to pay to Lessee any refund or credit to the extent such refund or credit is greater than the amount of Taxes in respect of which payment or indemnification was made by Lessee, reduced by all prior payments by such Indemnitee under this Section 9.2(c) in respect of such amount. If such repaid refund or credit is thereafter lost, the additional Tax payable shall be treated as a Tax indemnifiable hereunder without regard to the exclusions from indemnified Taxes set forth in Section 9.2(a). (d) Reports. If any report, return or statement is required to be filed with respect to any Taxes that are subject to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) Lessee shall, if Lessee is permitted by Applicable Laws, timely prepare and file such report, return or statement; provided, 56 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT however, that if Lessee is not permitted by Applicable Laws to file any such report Lessee will promptly so notify the appropriate Indemnitee, in which case the Indemnitee will file any such report after preparation thereof by Lessee, provided, that in each case such Indemnitee shall have furnished Lessee with such information not within the control of (or otherwise reasonably available to) Lessee, as is in such Indemnitee's control or is reasonably available to such Indemnitee and necessary to file such filing. Lessee will deliver any such return, together with immediately available funds for payment of any Tax due, to such Indemnitee at least twenty (20) days in advance of the date such return or payment is due. Lessee agrees that, with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Properties, Lessee shall be solely responsible for the accuracy, except to the extent of any information provided by the Indemnitee, and completeness of all required forms for execution by the appropriate Person, and Indemnitee's sole responsibility shall be to execute all such forms, to the extent required by Applicable Laws, at the reasonable direction of Lessee. If the Indemnitee has actual knowledge of Lessee's failure to file any report required to be filed by Lessee hereunder, such Indemnitee shall notify Lessee of such failure within 30 days of obtaining such actual knowledge. (e) Tax Ownership. Each of Lessor, Liquidity Providers and Investors (and the respective successors, assigns and transferees of each of the foregoing) covenants, represents and warrants that it will not claim ownership for United States Tax purposes of (or any tax benefits, including depreciation, with respect to ownership of) the Properties prior to the termination of the Lease, it being understood that Lessee is and will remain the owner of the Properties for such income tax or other tax purposes during the term of the Lease. Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall require any Participant to disclose any tax returns to Lessee. SECTION 9.3. Withholding Tax. (a) On the Initial Advance Date, or in the case of a Person that actually becomes a Participant after the Initial Advance Date at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the first date on which any payment is due hereunder to such Participant, each Participant that is a Non-U.S. Person shall deliver to each of Lessee, Lessor and Conduit (if such Participant is a Liquidity Provider) the Prescribed Forms. If any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Person is unable to so deliver the Prescribed Forms, Lessee, Lessor or any other appropriate party shall be entitled to withhold from any payments to such Participant under this Participation Agreement, and Conduit shall be entitled to withhold from any payments to such Participant under the Liquidity Agreement, such amounts of Tax as may be required by law to be so withheld, after taking into account any reduction in the rate of applicable withholding Tax to which such Participant may establish its eligibility by duly filing an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor form) with Lessee and Lessor, and Lessee and Lessor shall have no obligation to pay such Participant for any Taxes so withheld, except as provided in Section 9.3(b). If any change occurs after a Non-U.S. Person becomes a Participant which renders the Prescribed Forms previously delivered by such Participant inapplicable or, in the case of any Prescribed Form that is not, by its terms, effective for the Lease Term, which would prevent such Person from duly completing and delivering any renewal, extension or continuation of a Prescribed Form previously filed by such Person, such Participant shall promptly (after obtaining actual knowledge of such change) advise Lessee, Lessor and Conduit (if such Participant is a Liquidity Provider) that it is no longer capable of receiving payments without the withholding of United 57 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT States Tax and that Lessee, Lessor and Conduit (if such Participant is a Liquidity Provider) are obligated to withhold United States Tax from payments by them to such Participant. If any such change involves a change in a treaty, law or regulation (or a published change in the interpretation or application thereof), Lessee shall be obligated to pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) such Participant, on an After-Tax Basis, for any United States Tax which must be withheld from payments made to such Participant under this Participation Agreement after such Participant notifies Lessee and Lessor of such change, but only if and to the extent that the obligation to withhold such United States Tax arises solely by reason of a change in treaty, law, or regulation which takes effect after the date on which such Participant became a Participant. (b) If and to the extent Lessor (or its agent) has in good faith attempted to comply with its obligation to withhold Taxes and a claim is made against it or another Indemnitee, as between Lessee and Lessor (or its agent), Lessee shall be responsible for, and Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor (or its agent) (without any duplication of indemnification otherwise required under this Participation Agreement) on an After-Tax Basis against, such claim to the extent Lessor (or its agent) has paid funds to any Authority with respect to such withholding taxes or has received a demand therefor (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay such funds). (c) Should a Participant ever receive any refund, credit or deduction from any taxing authority to which such Participant would not be entitled but for the payment by Lessee of any United States federal, state or local Tax, pursuant to Section 9.3(b), such Participant thereupon shall repay to Lessee an amount with respect to such refund, credit or deduction equal to any net reduction in Taxes actually obtained by such Participant which is attributable to such refund, credit or deduction (but not in excess of the amount of the related payment paid by Lessee to, or for, the Participant pursuant to Section 9.3(b)). (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Lessee shall indemnify any Indemnitee against any Taxes imposed by way of withholding by a jurisdiction outside of the United States solely as a result of (i) the payment by Lessee of any amount pursuant to this Participation Agreement or the other Operative Documents from, or (ii) the booking by Lessee of some or all of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents in, such jurisdiction. SECTION 9.4. Calculation of General Tax Indemnity Payments. (a) Any payment or indemnity to or for the benefit of any Indemnitee with respect to a Tax which is subject to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) shall (A) (other than payment of Taxes to applicable Governmental Authorities) reflect the actual current net savings available to such Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof resulting from the current deduction of such indemnified Tax or the event or circumstance giving rise thereto (such current net savings to be determined on an incremental basis after taking into account all other available deductions of the Indemnitee) and (B) include, after taking into account the savings described in clause (A), the amount necessary to hold such Indemnitee harmless on an After-Tax Basis; provided that, at the request of Lessee, an Indemnitee will certify to Lessee the extent, if any, to which such Indemnitee was able to use currently such deduction on its tax return. If, by reason of any payment made to or for the account of an Indemnitee by Lessee pursuant to Section 9.2, or the 58 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT event or circumstance giving rise to such payment, such Indemnitee or an Affiliate actually realizes a net tax benefit, savings, deduction or credit not taken into account in computing such payment, such Indemnitee shall promptly pay to Lessee an amount equal to the sum of (x) the actual net reduction in Taxes, if any, realized by such Indemnitee or any Affiliate thereof attributable to such net tax benefits, savings, deduction or credits and (y) the actual net reduction in any Taxes realized by such Indemnitee or an Affiliate as the result of any payment made by such Indemnitee pursuant to this sentence; provided that, no Indemnitee shall be obligated to make any payment pursuant to clause (x) of this Section 9.4(a) to the extent that the amount of such payment would exceed (1) the amount of all prior payments of Tax or payments under Section 9.2(c) paid by Lessee to or on behalf of such Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.4 less (2) the amount of all prior payments pursuant to this Section 9.4(a) and described in clause (x) by such Indemnitee to Lessee; but any such excess shall reduce pro tanto any amount of Taxes under Section 9.2 that Lessee is subsequently obligated to pay directly to such Indemnitee (as opposed to directly to any taxing authority pursuant to the first sentence of Section 9.2(c)) pursuant to this Section 9.4. (b) After-Tax Basis. If an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to a corresponding and equal deduction or deductions for United States Tax purposes with respect to any payment or Tax which Lessee is required to pay or reimburse under any other provision of this Article IX (each such payment or reimbursement an "original payment"), in the same taxable year of such Indemnitee as the year of inclusion in its taxable income of such "original payment", then Lessee shall pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) to such Indemnitee on demand the amount of such "original payment" on a grossed-up basis such that after subtracting all United States Taxes imposed on such Indemnitee with respect to such "original payment" (determined for this purpose based on the actual Federal, state and local marginal rates applicable to the Indemnitee for the year in which such income is taxable as determined in good faith by such Indemnitee), such payments shall be equal to the "original payment" (net of any credits, deductions or other tax benefits then actually recognized that arise from the payment or deemed payment by such Indemnitee of any amount, including taxes, for which the payment received or deemed received is made). If an Indemnitee is subsequently entitled to a corresponding and equal deduction in the same taxable year as the year of inclusion in its taxable income, such Indemnitee shall pay to Lessee an amount equal to the amount paid as a gross-up with respect to such original payment. SECTION 9.5. Environmental Indemnity. Without limitation of the other provisions of this Article IX, Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Indemnitee from and against any and all Claims (including claims for natural resources damages and third party claims for personal injury or real or personal property damage), losses, damages, liabilities, fines, penalties, charges, administrative and judicial proceedings (including informal proceedings) and orders, judgments, remedial action, requirements, enforcement actions of any kind, and all reasonable and documented third party costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys', paralegals', experts' and/or consultant's fees and expenses), including, but not limited to, all costs incurred in connection with any investigation or monitoring of site conditions or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work by any federal, state or local government agency, or judicial proceeding, arising in whole or in part, out of 59 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT (a) the presence on or under either Property of any Hazardous Materials, or any releases or discharges, or threatened releases or discharges of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or onto either Property, whether from historic or future threatened releases of Hazardous Materials, (b) any activity, including construction, carried on or undertaken on or off either Property, and whether by Lessee or any predecessor in title or any employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors of Lessee or any predecessor in title, or any other Person (including such Indemnitee), in connection with the handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination, clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials that at any time are located or present on or under or that at any time migrate, flow, percolate, diffuse or in any way move onto or under either Property, (c) loss of or damage to any property or the environment (including clean-up costs, response costs, remediation and removal costs, cost of corrective action, costs of financial assurance, fines and penalties and natural resource damages), or death or injury to any Person, and all expenses associated with the protection of wildlife, aquatic species, vegetation, flora and fauna, and any mitigative action required by or under Environmental Laws, in each case arising from or in any way related to the Land, any Improvements, Lessee or the Overall Transaction, (d) with respect to the Land or any Improvements, any claim concerning lack of compliance with Environmental Laws, or any act or omission causing an environmental condition that requires remediation or would allow any Governmental Authority to record a Lien on the land records, or (e) any residual contamination on or under the Land, or affecting any natural resources, and to any contamination of any property or natural resources arising in connection with the generation, use, handling, storage, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, and irrespective of whether any of such activities were or will be undertaken in accordance with Applicable Laws; provided, however, Lessee shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee under this Section 9.5 for (1) any Claim to the extent resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, or any Affiliate of such Indemnitee (it being understood that Lessee shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee even if the ordinary (but not gross) negligence of such Indemnitee, or any Affiliate of such Indemnitee, caused or contributed to such Claim) or (2) any Claim to the extent attributable to acts or events which occur after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of the Lease and the return of the Properties by Lessee in accordance with the terms thereof (except (A) to the extent fairly attributable to acts, events, liabilities or damages occurring or accruing prior thereto; (B) Claims arising following the termination or expiration of the Lease Term so long as any Agent or any Participant continues to exercise remedies against Lessee in respect of the Operative Documents and (C) Claims arising after the expiration of the Lease Term so long as Lessor is remarketing the Properties (or any interest therein) in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Lease). It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnity provided for herein shall survive the expiration or termination of, and shall be separate and independent from any remedy under, the Lease or any other Operative Document. 60 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT SECTION 9.6. Proceedings in Respect of Claims. With respect to any amount that Lessee is requested by an Indemnitee to pay by reason of Section 9.1 or 9.5, such Indemnitee shall, if so requested by Lessee and prior to any payment, submit such additional information to Lessee as Lessee may reasonably request and which is in the possession of such Indemnitee to substantiate properly the requested payment. In case any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee in respect of a Claim covered by Lessee's indemnification obligations, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify Lessee of the commencement thereof, and Lessee shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that Lessee desires to, assume and control the defense thereof; provided, however, that Lessee shall keep such Indemnitee fully apprised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and shall provide such Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action, suit or proceeding as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request, and provided, further, that Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding if and to the extent that, (A) in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee, (x) such action, suit or proceeding involves any risk of imposition of criminal liability or creates a material risk of the sale, loss or forfeiture of either Property or impairs in any way the payment of Base Rent or Supplemental Rent or the Lien of the Deeds of Trust or gives rise to the creation of any Lien other than a Permitted Lien with respect to the Properties or any portion thereof or (y) the control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an actual or potential conflict of interest (as set forth in a written legal opinion of independent counsel to such Indemnitee (based on factual determinations set forth in a certificate furnished by such Indemnitee to its counsel, upon which certificate counsel to such Indemnitee may rely), which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lessee), (B) such proceeding involves material Claims not fully indemnified by Lessee which Lessee and the Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified claim(s), (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (D) Lessee has not acknowledged in writing that such claim is fully indemnified by Lessee hereunder. The Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at its own expense with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by Lessee in accordance with the foregoing. Lessee may enter into any settlement or other compromise on behalf of the Indemnitee with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Section 9.1 or 9.5, and which Lessee has acknowledged its obligation to indemnify, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, except as to any settlement or compromise requiring an admission of wrongdoing or liability of such Indemnitee. Each Indemnitee shall, at the sole expense of Lessee (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay such expenses), supply to Lessee such information, documents and the identity of witnesses reasonably requested by Lessee as are necessary or advisable for Lessee to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 9.6 and which are reasonably available to such Indemnitee. Unless a Lease Event of Default or Construction Agency Event of Default or any other Event of Default caused by a Lease Default or Construction Agency Default has occurred and is continuing, no Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Section 9.1 or 9.5 without the prior written consent of Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under Section 9.1 or 9.5 with respect to such Claim. 61 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT Upon payment in full of any Claim by Lessee pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.5 to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, Lessee, without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be necessary to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with Lessee and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable Lessee vigorously to pursue such claims, all at Lessee's expense. Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.5 shall be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable. Any Construction Agency Indemnitee shall be deemed an "Indemnitee" for purposes of this Section 9.6. SECTION 9.7. Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy. Lessee shall pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) the following amounts ("Increased Costs"): (a) Additional Costs. In the event that any change after the date of this Participation Agreement in Applicable Laws or in the interpretation thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof imposes any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Participant, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Participant of making or maintaining such Participant's Loans or Investor Amounts or committing to make such Loans or Investor Amounts, or providing a commitment under the Liquidity Agreement, by an amount which such Participant deems to be material, then such Participant may, promptly upon becoming aware of such additional cost, notify Lessee and thereafter Lessee shall pay to such Participant upon its demand the additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Participant for such additional cost accruing from and after the date of notice. (b) Capital Adequacy. In the event that any change after the date of this Agreement in Applicable Laws regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on a Participant's capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under the Liquidity Agreement to a level below that which such Participant could have achieved but for such change or interpretation (to the extent such change or interpretation has not been reflected in the pricing of such Participant's Loans or Investor Amounts and taking into consideration such Participant's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Participant to be material, then such Participant may, promptly upon becoming aware of such reduced return, notify Lessee thereof and thereafter Lessee shall pay to such Participant upon its demand the additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Participant for such reduced return accruing from and after the date of notice. 62 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT SECTION 9.8. Illegality. If at any time any Participant or its applicable lending office shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive) that the making or maintenance of Eurodollar Loans has been made impracticable or unlawful because of compliance by such Participant in good faith with any law or the administration thereof by any official body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or because U.S. dollar deposits in the amount and maturity of the Eurodollar Loans are not generally available in the London Eurodollar interbank market, then such Participant shall forthwith give Lessee and Administrative Agent notice thereof and the obligation to continue the Eurodollar Loans shall terminate and Lessee shall, at its option, convert the outstanding Eurodollar Loans into ABR Loans or prepay the Eurodollar Loans, such conversion or prepayment to become due, in the case of impracticability, on the last day of the Interest Period in effect at the time notice of impracticability is given and, in the case of illegality, on the last day of the last Interest Period to end prior to the effectiveness of the applicable change in law or such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law or regulation. SECTION 9.9. Compensation. In the event that Lessee funds directly or indirectly a prepayment of any Loan or Investor Amount on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period, or in the event a Loan or Investor Amount is not made on the Advance Date specified therefor (other than as a result of a default by such Participant), or a Loan, Lessee shall pay (provided that during the Construction Period Lessee shall request an Advance, the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) to a Participant upon its demand an amount which will compensate such Participant for any loss or expense incurred as a result of any such event in respect of funds obtained for the purpose of making or maintaining such Loan or Investor Amount (but not for any loss of profit in respect of any such event), provided, that payments under this Section 9.9 shall not be due to any Person entitled to payment by reason of Section 2.2.7. SECTION 9.10. Obligations of Lessee to Pay Certain Amounts. During the Construction Period, Lessee shall request Advances to pay (and Administrative Agent shall pay out of such Advances, as directed below), and during the Lease Term, Lessee shall pay as Supplemental Rent under the Lease, all amounts described in this Section 9.10. (a) Administrative Agent Fees. To Fleet National Bank for its own account, the fees agreed to in Administrative Agent Fee Letter for services rendered as Administrative Agent. (b) Structuring Fees. To Administrative Agent for the benefit of First Union National Bank, the Administrator and the Fleet Investor, the Structuring Fees owed to each on the Documentation Date. (c) [Intentionally omitted.] (d) Management Fees.
