Filing a Claim. A Participant or his authorized representative may file a claim for benefits under the Plan (hereafter, referred to as a “Claimant”). Any claim must be in writing and submitted to the Committee at such address as may be specified from time to time. Claimants will be notified in writing of approved claims, which will be processed as claimed. A claim is considered approved only if its approval is communicated in writing to the Claimant.

Filing Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relating to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand therefor) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

Filing. To ensure the enforceability or admissibility in evidence of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which the Subsidiary Borrower is a party in its jurisdiction of organization (“Home Country”), it is not necessary that this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which the Subsidiary Borrower is a party or any other document be filed or recorded with any court or other authority in its Home Country or that any stamp or similar tax be paid in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document of the Subsidiary Borrower. The qualification by any Lender or the Administrative Agent for admission to do business under the laws of the Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country does not constitute a condition to, and the failure to so qualify does not affect, the exercise by any Lender or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege, or remedy afforded to any Lender or the Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents to which the Subsidiary Borrower is a party or the enforcement of any such right, privilege, or remedy against the Subsidiary Borrower. The performance by any Lender or the Administrative Agent of any action required or permitted under the Loan Documents will not # violate any law or regulation of the Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country or any political subdivision thereof, # result in any tax or other monetary liability to such party pursuant to the laws of the Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country or political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (provided, that, should any such action result in any such tax or other monetary liability to the Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Subsidiary Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against # any such tax or other monetary liability and # any increase in any tax or other monetary liability which results from such action by such Lender or the Administrative Agent and, to the extent the Subsidiary Borrower makes such indemnification, the incurrence of such liability by the Administrative Agent or any Lender will not constitute a Default) or # violate any rule or regulation of any federation or organization or similar entity of which the Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country is a member.

Claim. A person who believes that he or she is being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under this Plan (hereinafter referred to as “Claimant”) must file a written request for such benefit with the Company, setting forth his or her claim. The request must be addressed to the General Counsel of the Company at its then principal place of business.

Claim. A "Claim" shall be broadly construed to include any damage, liability, expense, reasonable attorney fees, costs, or any combination thereof arising from, related to, or connected with a party's breach of this Agreement.

Each ​-District ​ agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any proofs of claim in respect of the ​-District Debt as reasonably requested by Agent in connection with any Proceeding provided that such proofs of claim acknowledge such ​-District ​’s rights with respect to its Pari Passu Debt and each ​-District ​ hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Agent as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute, verify, deliver and file such proofs of claim upon the failure of such ​-District ​ promptly to do so prior to FIFTEEN # days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof of claim

Denial of Claim. In the case of the denial of a claim respecting benefits paid or payable with respect to a Participant, a written notice will be furnished to the Claimant within 90 days of the date on which the claim is received by the Committee. If special circumstances (such as for a hearing) require a longer period, the Claimant will be notified in writing, prior to the expiration of the 90-day period, of the reasons for an extension of time; provided, however, that no extensions will be permitted beyond 90 days after the expiration of the initial 90-day period.

If a claim for a Plan benefit is wholly or partially denied, notice of the decision shall be furnished to the claimant by the Committee within a reasonable period of time after receipt of the claim by the Committee.

Claim on Review If the claim, upon review, is denied in whole or in part, the Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant of the adverse benefit determination within sixty (60) days after receipt of such a request for review

Proofs of Claim. If, while any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding, any Event of Default under [Section 10(f)] of this Agreement occurs, the Lender shall duly and promptly take such action as any holder of Senior Indebtedness may reasonably request to collect any payment with respect to the amounts due and payable under this Agreement for the account of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of this Agreement. Upon the failure of the Lender to take any such action, each holder of Senior Indebtedness is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in respect of this Agreement and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Lender with respect to this Agreement.

Presentation of Claim. A Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased Participant (the “Claimant”) shall have the right to request any benefit under the Plan by filing a written claim for any such benefit with the Committee on a form provided or approved by the Committee for such purpose. The Committee (or a claims fiduciary appointed by the Committee) shall give such claim due consideration and shall either approve or deny it in whole or in part. The following procedure shall apply:

Defense of Claim. The indemnifying Party shall defend or control the defense of Third Party Claims. The indemnifying Party shall be responsible for satisfying and discharging any award made to or settlement reached with the Third Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The indemnifying Party shall retain counsel to represent the indemnified party and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, but without limiting the foregoing, the indemnified Party, at its sole expense, shall have the right to retain its own counsel. The indemnified Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects in the defense of such Third Party Claim, as requested by, and at the reasonable expense of, the indemnifying Party. The indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, refused, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any such Third Party Claim, unless such settlement includes a full and unconditional release of the indemnified Party from all liability on such Claims.

When an Officer’s employment with the Company terminates, the Administrator will advise the Officer whether he or she is eligible for benefits from the Plan and, if so, the amount and timing of the payments that will be made to the Officer.
