then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Sections 2.3 and 2.4 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

SECTION 4.3. Increased LIBO Rate Loan Costs, etc. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender for any increase in the cost to such Lender of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Person in respect of, such Person’s Commitments and the making of Credit Extensions hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans) that arise in connection with any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, change in interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in after the Closing Date of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes which are governed by Sections 4.5 and 4.6, respectively. Each affected Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Person for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrower directly to such Lender within five days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be entitled to compensation under this Section for any costs incurred or reductions suffered with respect to any date that it has such costs unless it shall have notified the Borrower that it will demand compensation for such costs not more than 180 days after the date on which it shall have become aware of such costs.

SECTION 4.4. Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan) as a result of

(a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;

(b) any Loans not being made as LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor; or

(c) any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor;

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall, within five days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

SECTION 4.5. Increased Capital Costs. If, after the Closing Date, any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, change in interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority affects or would increase the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Credit Party or any Person controlling such Credit Party, and such Credit Party determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made by such Credit Party is reduced to a level below that which such Credit Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon prompt notice from time to time by such Credit Party to the Borrower, the Borrower shall within five days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Credit Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Credit Party or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Credit Party as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In determining such amount, such Credit Party may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be entitled to compensation under this Section for any additional amounts with respect to any date unless it shall have notified the Borrower that it will demand compensation hereunder not more than 180 days after the date on which it shall have become aware of such increased costs.

SECTION 4.6. Taxes. The Obligors covenant and agree as follows with respect to Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by any Obligor under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, unless required by law (as determined by the applicable withholding agent). In the event that any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed and required to be deducted or withheld from any payment under any Loan Document, then:

(i) the amount of such payment shall be increased by the applicable Obligor as may be necessary so that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes (including any such Taxes attributable to the payments under this Section 4.6), in an amount that is not less than the amount provided for in such Loan Document; and

(ii) the applicable withholding agent shall withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (including any such Taxes attributable to the payments under this Section 4.6) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes imposed (without duplication if any other Taxes are paid under Section 4.6(a)) to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Obligor, and in any event within 45 days of any such payment being made, the relevant Obligor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes. The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any relevant Credit Party upon request therefor.

(d) Subject to clause (f) pbelow, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Credit Party for any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any such Taxes attributable to the payments under this Section 4.6), levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) such Credit Party whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice thereof by any Credit Party (which notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower), the Borrower shall pay such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Authority, provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to so indemnify each Credit Party in respect of interest or penalties attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes: (i) to the extent that such interest or penalties resulted solely from the failure of the Administrative Agent or such other Credit Party as applicable, to notify the Borrower of the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes within 120 days after the Administrative Agent or such other Credit Party (as the case may be) actually received written notice of such imposition from the applicable taxing authority or (ii) such interest or penalties resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Credit Party. With respect to indemnification for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes actually paid by any Credit Party or the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Credit Party makes written demand therefor. The Borrower acknowledges that any payment made to any Credit Party or to any Governmental Authority in respect of the indemnification obligations of the Borrower provided in this clause shall constitute a payment in respect of which the provisions of clause (a) and this clause shall apply.

(e) (i) Any Credit Party (which, for purposes of this clause (e) of Section 4.6, shall exclude the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax (including backup withholding Tax) under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to any payment under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law or

reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to permit such payments to be made without such withholding Tax or at a reduced rate; provided, that no Credit Party shall have any obligation under this paragraph (e) with respect to any withholding Tax imposed by any jurisdiction other than the U.S. federal government if in the reasonable judgment of such Credit Party such compliance would subject such Credit Party to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would otherwise be disadvantageous to such Credit Party in any material respect.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Non-U.S. Credit Party shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Credit Party becomes a Credit Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Non-U.S. Credit Party is legally eligible to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(I) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(II) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(III) in the case of a Non-U.S. Credit Party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit F-1, or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent, to the effect that such Non-U.S. Credit Party is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no payments in connection with the Loan Documents are effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Credit Party’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms),

(IV) to the extent a Non-U.S. Credit Party is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-U.S. Credit Party is a partnership, or a participating Lender granting a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit F-2, Exhibit F-3 or Exhibit F-4, as applicable, Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Non-U.S. Credit Party is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more partners of such Non-U.S. Credit Party are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Credit Party shall provide a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit F-3, on behalf of such beneficial

owner(s) (in lieu of requiring each beneficial owner to provide such certificate); and

(V) any other form prescribed by applicable laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable requirements of law to permit the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) Each Non-U.S. Credit Party shall, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Non-U.S. Credit Party of the forms described above, whenever a lapse in time or change in such Lender’s circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete or inaccurate, promptly (1) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) renewals, amendments or additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Credit Party, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish such Non-U.S. Credit Party’s status or that such Non-U.S. Credit Party is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in any applicable withholding tax or (2) notify Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(iv) Any Credit Party that is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Credit Party becomes a Credit Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by applicable law or upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that it is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding.

(f) If and to the extent that any Credit Party determines (in good faith) that it has actually realized a refund of a Tax in respect to which an Obligor paid any additional amounts to such Credit Party pursuant to clause (a)(i) or clause (d) above, such Credit Party shall, to the extent such Credit Party determines in good faith that such Credit Party may do so without prejudice to the retention of such refund and without any other adverse Tax consequences to such Credit Party, pay to the Obligor an amount it determines to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such payment, in no better or worse financial position than had the Tax giving rise to the additional amounts not been imposed and had the additional amounts giving rise to such refund never been paid in the first place. If any refund resulting in a payment by a Credit Party to the Obligor under this clause is ultimately disallowed (in whole or in part, and including, as a result of a settlement with an applicable Governmental Authority), the Obligor shall, within ten days after receiving written notice from such Credit Party, return to such Credit Party the portion of the payment previously made to the Obligor by such Credit Party (plus interest for the relevant period(s) at the applicable rate(s)) as such Credit Party shall determine (in such Credit Party’s sole discretion exercised in good faith) to be due and owning in

accordance with this clause. This Section shall not be construed to require any Credit Party to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to an Obligor or any other person.

SECTION 4.7. Payments, Computations, etc.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Credit Parties entitled to receive such payment. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than noon on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Credit Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Credit Party. All interest (including interest on LIBO Rate Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan (calculated at other than the Federal Funds Rate), 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days). Except as otherwise provided herein, payments due on a day other than a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by clause (b) of the definition of “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth therein, all payments made under any Loan Document shall be applied upon receipt (i) first, to the payment of all Obligations (other than Loans or interest thereon) owing to the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent), (ii) second, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clause (b)(i), to the ratable payment of all interest and fees owing and due and payable with respect to the Credit Extensions and all costs and expenses owing to the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until paid in full in cash, (iii) third, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) and (b)(ii), to the ratable payment of the principal amount of the Loans then outstanding and due and payable, and, if such payment resulted from the proceeds of collateral (or a payment under a Guaranty), to amounts owing to Secured Parties under Cash Management Obligations then due and payable, (iv) fourth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iii), to the ratable payment of all other Obligations owing to the Secured Parties and due and payable, and (v) fifth, after payment in full in cash of the amounts specified in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(iv), to each applicable Obligor or any other Person lawfully entitled to receive such surplus pursuant to an order of a Governmental Authority.

SECTION 4.8. Sharing of Payments. If any Credit Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6)

in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Credit Parties, such Credit Party shall purchase from the other Credit Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Credit Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Credit Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Credit Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Credit Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Credit Party shall repay to the purchasing Credit Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Credit Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Credit Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Credit Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Credit Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Credit Party in respect of the total amount so recovered; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that Credit Extension shall not include any obligations secured by Liens granted pursuant to clause (e) or (g) of Section 7.2.3 or any Cash Management Obligations or Hedging Obligations permitted by clause (i) of Section 7.2.2. The Borrower agrees that any Credit Party purchasing a participation from another Credit Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Credit Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Credit Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Credit Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Credit Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 4.9. Setoff. Each Credit Party may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) the Borrower hereby grants to each Secured Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of the Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party (excluding deposits held by the Borrower as a fiduciary for others); provided that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Credit Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such appropriation and application made by such Credit Party; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Credit Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Credit Party may have.

SECTION 4.10. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) (a) fails to vote in favor of a modification to this Agreement that is otherwise approved by the requisite number of Lenders (which, in the case of a modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders of a particular class, means all Lenders or all Lenders of such class, as applicable, other than such non-consenting Lender), (b) makes a demand upon the Borrower for (or if the Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 (and

the payment of such amounts are, and are likely to continue to be, more onerous in the reasonable judgment of the Borrower than with respect to the other Lenders) or (c) gives notice pursuant to Section 4.1 requiring a conversion of such Affected Lender’s LIBO Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or suspending such Lender’s obligation to make Loans as, or to convert Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans (unless such Lender, when taken together with all other Lenders giving such notices at substantially the same time, constitute the Required Lenders), the Borrower may, within 30 days of the failure to consent or receipt by the Borrower of such demand or notice, as the case may be, give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to replace such Affected Lender with a financial institution or other Person (a “Substitute Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided that no Replacement Notice may be given by the Borrower if (i) such replacement conflicts with any applicable law or regulation, (ii) any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) such Lender consents to such modification, or, if applicable, (iv) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.5 or 4.6 (if applicable) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.5 or 4.6. If the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and within 30 days of its receipt of such Replacement Notice, notify the Borrower and such Affected Lender in writing that the Substitute Lender is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld and not being required where the Substitute Lender is already a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender), then such Affected Lender shall, subject to the payment of any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.4, assign, in accordance with Section 10.11, all of its Commitments, Loans, Notes (if any) and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents to such Substitute Lender; provided that (i) such assignment shall be made pursuant to a Lender Assignment Agreement, (ii) the purchase price paid by such Substitute Lender shall be in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6), owing to such Affected Lender hereunder and (iii) the Borrower shall pay to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment and assumption (including the processing fees described in Section 10.11). Upon the effective date of an assignment described above, the Substitute Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 4.11. Mitigation of Claims. Each Lender agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, or 4.6, or if any adoption or change of the type described in Section 4.1 shall occur with respect to it, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate a different lending office (at the Borrower’s cost) if the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrower to make payments under Section 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, or 4.6, or would eliminate or reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 4.1.

ARTICLE IX
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 9.1. Actions. Each Lender hereby appoints Macquarie Bank Limited as its Administrative Agent under and for purposes of each Loan Document. Each Lender

authorizes the Administrative Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under each Loan Document and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received from time to time by the Administrative Agent (with respect to which the Administrative Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by counsel in order to avoid contravention of applicable law), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement) the Administrative Agent, pro rata according to such Lender’s proportionate [Total Exposure Amount], from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), and as to which the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by the Borrower; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses which are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action under any Loan Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of any Loan Document, unless it is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of the Administrative Agent shall be or become, in the Administrative Agent’s determination, inadequate, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given. The Administrative Agent is authorized to release collateral that is permitted to be sold or released pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.2. Funding Reliance, Etc. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender by 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole and absolute discretion) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the Borrower to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of the Borrower) and (in the case of a Lender), at the Federal Funds Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing.

SECTION 9.3. Exculpation. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Loan Document, or in connection therewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor responsible for any recitals or warranties herein

or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of any Loan Document, nor for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security, nor to make any inquiry respecting the performance by any Obligor of its Obligations. Any such inquiry which may be made by the Administrative Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which the Administrative Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person.

SECTION 9.4. Successor. The Administrative Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Borrower and all Lenders. If the Administrative Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Default then exists, appoint another Lender as a successor Administrative Agent which shall thereupon become the Administrative Agent hereunder. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000; provided that if such retiring Administrative Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth above, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Administrative Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and Sections 10.3 and 10.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

SECTION 9.5. Loans by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (a) the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (b) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9.6. Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrower, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Administrative Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.7. Copies, Etc. The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by the Borrower). The Administrative Agent will use commercially reasonable efforts to distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received for its account and copies of all other communications received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Lender agrees that no liability shall attach to the Administrative Agent for any failure to comply with this Section 9.7.

SECTION 9.8. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Secured Parties. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into Cash Management Obligations for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Obligations owed to such Secured Party under such Cash Management Obligations. Unless it has actual knowledge evidenced by way of written notice from any such Secured Party or the Borrower to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting in such capacity under the Loan Documents, shall be entitled to assume that no Cash Management Obligations in respect thereof are in existence or outstanding between any Secured Party and any Obligor.

SECTION 9.9. Defaults. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless the Administrative Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such

notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 10.1) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

SECTION 9.10. [Reserved].

SECTION 9.11. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 4.6(a) or (c), each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.11. The agreements in this Section 9.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

SECTION 9.12. [Reserved.]

(a) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any Credit Extension, including all Indemnified Liabilities arising in connection with the Transaction;

(b) the entering into and performance of any Loan Document by any of the Indemnified Parties (including any action brought by or on behalf of the Borrower as the result of any determination by the Required Lenders pursuant to Article V not to fund any Credit Extension; provided that any such action is resolved in favor of such Indemnified Party);

IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY, except for Indemnified Liabilities arising for the account of a particular Indemnified Party to the extent of the relevant Indemnified Party’s material breach of a Loan Document, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Obligor and its successors

and assigns hereby waive, release and agree not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action against, any Indemnified Party under any Environmental Law, including CERCLA or any state equivalent, or any similar law now existing or hereafter enacted. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the extent that any Indemnified Party is strictly liable under any Environmental Laws, each Obligor’s obligation to such Indemnified Party under this indemnity shall likewise be without regard to fault on the part of any Obligor with respect to the violation or condition which results in liability of an Indemnified Party; provided that this waiver and release shall not apply to the extent that the Indemnified Liabilities arise for the account of a particular Indemnified Party by reason of the relevant Indemnified Party’s material breach of a Loan Document, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, each Obligor agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

The representations and warranties made by each Obligor in each Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of such Loan Document.

SECTION 10.6. Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.7. Headings. The various headings of each Loan Document are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of such Loan Document or any provisions thereof.

SECTION 10.8. Execution in Counterparts, Effectiveness, Etc. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall become effective when counterparts hereof executed on behalf of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender (or notice thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) shall have been received by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement shall not become operative until the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 5.1 shall have occurred.

SECTION 10.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (in the case of assigns (but not successors) in the case of Lenders, subject to Section 10.11); provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of all Lenders.

SECTION 10.11. Sale and Transfer of Credit Extensions; Participations in Credit Extensions. Each Lender may assign, or sell participations in, its Loans and Commitments to one or more other Persons in accordance with the terms set forth below:

(a) Any Lender may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) except in the case of (A) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it or (B) an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment or Loans of the relevant tranche; provided that such minimum amount shall be aggregated for two or more simultaneous assignments by or to two or more Related Funds), unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) [Reserved]; and

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall (A) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent) or (B) manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, together, in the case of this clause (iii)(B), with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and if the Eligible Assignee is not a Lender,

administrative details information with respect to such Eligible Assignee and applicable tax forms.

(b) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, (i) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, subject to Section 10.5, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with clause (a) above and this clause (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (d) below. If the consent of the Borrower to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in this Section), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent ten Business Days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent or ClearPar, LLC) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such tenth Business Day.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall record each assignment made in accordance with this Section in the Register pursuant to clause (a) of Section 2.7. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender (in the case of such Lender, such right of inspection shall be with respect to its own interest only and not that of any other Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Any Lender (other than a Designated Lender) may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and any Designated Lender may, with the prior consent of each of the Borrower and Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or

waiver with respect to any of the items set forth in clauses (a) through (e) of Section 10.1, in each case except as otherwise specifically provided in a Loan Document. Subject to clause (e) below, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 7.1.1, 10.3 and 10.4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including providing documentation pursuant to Section 4.6(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.9 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.8 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal and interest amount of each Participant’s interest in the Loans held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the participation in question for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 10.3 and 10.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(f) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of any other Person, pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) In the event that any Lender becomes a Designated Lender, then the Borrower shall each have the right, but not the obligation, upon notice to such Loan Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Loan Lender with a financial institution (a “Replacement Lender”) acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required if the Replacement Lender is an existing Loan Lender), and upon any Lender becoming a Designated Lender, such Loan Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign (in accordance with this Section all of its Commitments and other rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to such Replacement Lender; provided that (i) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty (other than that such Lender owns the Commitments, Loans and Notes being assigned, free and clear of any Liens) and (ii) the purchase price paid by the Replacement Lender shall be in the amount of such Loan Lender’s Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (other than the amounts (if any) demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.2 through (and including) 4.6, which shall be paid by

the Borrower), owing to such Lender hereunder. Upon any such termination or assignment, such Loan Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to the obligations of, any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement. The Borrower’s right to replace a Designated Lender pursuant to this Section is, and shall be, in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies available to the Borrower against such Designated Lender under applicable law.

(h) [Reserved].

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this clause, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, subject to the next sentence, that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each SPC, for purposes of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 10.3 and 10.4, shall be considered a Lender. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 10.3 and 10.4 that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to an SPC unless the grant was made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

SECTION 10.12. Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which the Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

SECTION 10.13. Forum Selection and Consent to Jurisdiction. ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH MAY BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN XXX XXXXXX XX XXX XXXXX XX XXX XXXX LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.2. THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE BORROWER HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SECTION 10.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EACH LENDER AND THE BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, EACH LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, SUCH LENDER OR THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A

PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SECTION 10.15. Limitation on Interest. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law from time to time in effect. Neither the Borrower nor any present or future Guarantors, endorsers or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received under applicable law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents that may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly disavow any intention to contract for, charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated. If (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (c) the Administrative Agent or a Lender shall otherwise collect moneys that are determined to constitute interest that would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be charged by applicable law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations or, at the option of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, promptly returned to the Borrower upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Borrower shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of instruments evidencing the Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under applicable law in order to lawfully contract for, charge, or receive the maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable law. In the event applicable law provides for an interest ceiling under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code (the “Texas Finance Code”), as amended, for that day, the ceiling shall be the “weekly ceiling” as defined in the Texas Finance Code; provided that if any applicable law permits greater interest, the law permitting the greatest interest shall apply. As used in this section the term “applicable law” means the laws of the State of Texas or the laws of the United States, whichever allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

SECTION 10.16. Confidentiality. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement about Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature, but may make disclosure to any of their examiners, Affiliates, their and their Affiliate’s directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees and representatives, outside auditors, counsel and other professional advisors or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section) in connection with this Agreement or as reasonably required by any potential bona fide pledgee under clause (f) of Section 10.11, transferee, participant or assignee, or in connection with the exercise of remedies under a Loan Document, or as requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or to any quasi-regulatory authority (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); provided that

(a) unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender or its Affiliate by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to or within a reasonable time after disclosure of such information;

(b) prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section, each Lender shall require any such bona fide pledgee under clause (f) of Section 10.11, transferee, participant and assignee receiving a disclosure of non-public information to agree in writing (i) to be bound by this Section; and (ii) to require such Person to require any other Person to whom such Person discloses such non-public information to be similarly bound by this Section; and

(c) except as may be required by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction and to the extent set forth therein, no Lender shall be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

SECTION 10.17. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notify the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.18. Exit Facility Option.

(a) Subject to the conditions set forth in each of this Section 10.18 and the conditions set forth in Exhibit I of the Approved Reorganization Plan, upon the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Obligations,

MBL hereby agrees to provide the Borrower and the Guarantors, each in its capacity as a reorganized entity, upon substantial consummation of the Approved Reorganization Plan (in form and substance as attached as an exhibit to the Plan Support Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent at the Closing Date) pursuant to the Approved Confirmation Order, a first lien, first out, exit revolving credit facility (the “Exit Facility”) on substantially the same terms as the Pre-Petition Revolving Agreement as modified pursuant to the terms set forth in the term sheet attached as Exhibit I to the Approved Reorganization Plan (in form and substance as attached as an exhibit to the Plan Support Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent at the Closing Date), and as may be otherwise agreed by MBL and the Borrower. The foregoing agreement is subject to:

(i) Compliance with Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Borrower in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, certifying that: (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing immediately prior to the termination of this Agreement; and (ii) the Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the Agreement, immediately prior to the termination of the Agreement.

(ii) Confirmation Order; Consummation of the Approved Reorganization Plan. (a) The Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an order confirming the Approved Reorganization Plan, which order (the “Approved Confirmation Order”) (x) shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (y) shall authorize the Exit Facility, the related loan documents and the granting of liens thereunder and (z) shall be in full force and effect and shall not have been reversed or modified and shall not be stayed or subject to a motion to stay or subject to appeal or petition for review, rehearing or certiorari, and the period for appealing the confirmation order shall have elapsed, (b) the Approved Reorganization Plan shall have been consummated and (c) the Approved Reorganization Plan shall not have been revoked or withdrawn.

(iii) No Challenges, Offsets, Defenses, Etc. There shall not be any cause of action pending that challenges the validity, amount, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Obligations and the Primed Liens, or any other cause of action against MBL with respect to the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement.

(iv) Repayment of Obligations. The Obligations shall have been indefeasibly repaid in full in cash and all commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated, and all liens and security interests related thereto shall have been terminated, released or continued, as applicable. Other than Indebtedness permitted by the terms of the Exit Facility and contemplated to be outstanding pursuant to the Approved Reorganization Plan (and as permitted pursuant to clause (ii) above), all Indebtedness of the Parent, Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall have been indefeasibly repaid in full or otherwise discharged or satisfied and all Liens securing such Indebtedness released in a manner satisfactory to MBL.

(v) Projections. The Borrower shall have delivered projections through the maturity date of the Exit Facility prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated therein and such projections shall either (x) not evidence any material adverse change as compared to the projections delivered to MBL on the Closing Date or (y) otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (and shall, in any event, demonstrate the Borrower’s ability to comply with the financial covenants to be set forth in the Exit Facility).

(vi) Satisfaction of Conditions Precedent. The Borrower and the Guarantors shall have satisfied the conditions precedent to initial funding set forth in the Exit Facility (which shall be substantially similar to the conditions precedent set forth in the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement, subject to the provisions set forth on Exhibit I to the Approved Reorganization Plan) on or before the Extended Maturity Date.

(vii) No Changes. Since the date of this Agreement, after taking into account the entry of the Approved Confirmation Order, (I) there shall not be continuing any material adverse change with respect to the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, business, results of operations, assets or liabilities of the Credit Parties, taken as a whole, (II) there shall not be any information materially adversely affecting the business and assets of Credit Parties that is materially inconsistent with any information disclosed to MBL by the Borrower or its advisors or representatives prior to the date hereof and (III) there shall not have occurred any material adverse effect on the performance by the Borrower of its obligations set forth in the documentation governing the Exit Facility.

(b) The commitments and agreements of MBL set forth in this Section 10.18 shall terminate automatically upon the occurrence of the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, and may be terminated by MBL at any time upon notice to the Borrower if any of the conditions required to be satisfied by the Borrower in this Section 10.18 are incapable of being satisfied on or before the Extended Maturity Date (as reasonably determined by MBL).

(c) Without limiting any of the foregoing, and provided the Borrower negotiates in good faith with MBL, MBL shall negotiate in good faith with Borrower to include in the Exit Facility mutually acceptable provisions that would permit the Borrower to consummate the Borrower’s acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Arctic Glacier Income Fund and its subsidiaries and incur adequate funding for Borrower’s operations after such acquisition.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.
