(a)General Representations and Warranties. As of the date hereof, the date of each Request for Reimbursement, and the date of each Disbursement (in each case, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder), each Loan Party makes the following representations and warranties to EXIM Bank:

(i)Existence, Qualification and Authority. Each Loan Party and each Subsidiary thereof (A) is duly organized or incorporated (as applicable), validly existing and in good standing (to the extent the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, (B) has the power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect, and (C) is duly qualified and is licensed and, as applicable, in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification or license, with full power, authority and legal right to own its property and carry on its business as now conducted, and has the requisite power, and has taken all actions necessary or advisable to authorize it to execute, deliver, perform, and observe the terms and conditions of the Finance Documents.

(ii)Government Authorizations Regarding Finance Documents, etc. All consents, licenses, authorizations and approvals of, and exemptions by, any Governmental Authority that are necessary or advisable: (A) for the execution, delivery, performance and observance by the Loan Parties of the Finance Documents and (B) for the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Finance Documents have, in each case, been obtained and are in full force and effect.

(iii)Recordation. To ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of any of the Finance Documents, it is not necessary that any of the Finance Documents be registered, recorded, enrolled or otherwise filed with any court or any Governmental Authority, or notarized; or that any documentary, stamp or other similar Tax, imposition or charge of any kind be paid on or in respect of any of the Finance

50

Documents other than the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

(iv)Restrictions. The execution, delivery and performance or observance by each Loan Party of the terms of, and consummation by each Loan Party of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Finance Documents does not and will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of: (A) the Organizational Documents of such Loan Party; (B) any law of the United States or any other ordinance, decree, constitutional provision, regulation or other requirement of any Governmental Authority; or (C) any order, writ, injunction, judgment, decree or award of any court or other tribunal. Further, each Loan Party’s execution and delivery of the Finance Documents, the performance and observance of its obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach of any agreement or instrument to which such Loan Party is a party or to which it or any of its revenues, properties or assets may be subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of the revenues, properties or assets of such Loan Party pursuant to any such agreement or instrument other than the lien upon the Collateral created under the Security Documents.

(v)Binding Effect. Each Loan Party has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and the other Finance Documents to which it is a party on or before the date hereof, and each Loan Party will also duly execute and deliver each Note and each of the other Finance Documents that may hereafter be executed by such Loan Party. Each of the Finance Documents that has been executed and delivered constitutes, and each such Finance Document that may hereafter be executed and delivered will constitute, a direct, general, and unconditional obligation of each Loan Party that is legal, valid, and binding upon such Loan Party and enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation, moratorium, readjustment of debt or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by the application of general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. Each Loan Party’s payment obligations under this Agreement rank, and under any Note when issued will rank, at least senior in priority of payment and in right of security to all unsecured Indebtedness and unsubordinated Indebtedness of such Loan Party.

(vi)Choice of Law. The choice of law provisions of this Agreement, any Note and any other Finance Document are valid, binding and not subject to revocation by any Loan Party, and in any proceedings brought in the United States for enforcement of any of the Finance Documents, the choice of the law of the State of New York as the governing law of such documents will be recognized and such law will be applied.

(vii)Commercial Activity; No Immunity. The Finance Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby constitute commercial activities (rather than governmental or public activities) of each Loan Party, and each Loan Party is subject to private commercial law with respect thereto. No Loan Party nor any of its property, assets, or revenue enjoys, under the laws of its jurisdiction, any right of immunity from suit, court

51

jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, set-off, execution, or from any other legal process with respect to any of the obligations under this Agreement, any Note, or any of the other Finance Documents.

The Company Financial Statements present fairly the financial condition of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries at the date of such statements and the results of the operations of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year. The Company Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Applicable Accounting Standard, consistently applied, except as otherwise expressly noted therein. Except as fully reflected in the Company Financial Statements, there are no liabilities or obligations with respect to any Loan Party of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, and whether or not due) for the period to which the Company Financial Statements relate that, either individually or in the aggregate, would be material to any Loan Party. Since the date of the Company Financial Statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, business, prospects or operations of any Loan Party.

(iii)▇▇▇ Regulations. As of the date hereof, the Borrower has complied with the requirements described in the ▇▇▇ Regulations to provide a valid Unique Entity Identifier. The Borrower maintains an active ▇▇▇ registration with current information including information on the Borrower’s immediate and highest level owner and subsidiaries, as well as on all predecessors that have been awarded a federal Award within the last three years, if applicable, at all times during which it has an active federal Award or an application or plan under consideration by a federal awarding agency (in each case, other than any requirement that is not applicable because the Borrower is exempted under the ▇▇▇ Regulations).

(c)Disclosure. Each Loan Party has disclosed to EXIM Bank all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which such Loan Party or any of such Loan Party’s Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect. The reports, financial statements, certificates and other written information (other than projected or pro forma financial information) furnished by or on behalf of each Loan Party to EXIM Bank in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or under any other Finance Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole, do not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein (when taken as a whole), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected or pro forma financial information, each Loan Party represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation and delivery (it being understood that such projected information may vary from actual results and that such variances may be material).

(d)ERISA Compliance.

(i)No Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate (a) sponsors or maintains any Pension Plans or Multiemployer Plans or (b) makes any contributions to or has any liabilities or obligations (direct or contingent) with respect to any Pension Plans or Multiemployer Plans.

(ii)Each Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state laws and each Plan that is intended to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that the form of such Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and the trust related thereto has been determined by the IRS to be exempt from federal

57

income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS, and, to the knowledge of such Loan Party, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status.

(iii)There are no pending or, to the knowledge of each Loan Party, threatened or contemplated claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that, either individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect.

(iv)No ERISA Event has occurred, and no Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event.

(v)The present value of all accrued benefits under each Pension Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Pension Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Pension Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of a Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is zero.

(vi)To the extent applicable, each Foreign Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of all Applicable Law and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities (to the extent the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction). No Loan Party has incurred any material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan that is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year of each Loan Party on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan by a material amount, and for each Foreign Plan that is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued.

(vii)No Loan Party does, and would not be deemed to, hold Plan Assets and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Finance Documents will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or substantially similar provisions under any other federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations that could reasonably be expected to subject EXIM Bank to any tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed under Section 4975 of the Code, Section 501(i) of ERISA or substantially similar provisions under any other federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations.

58

(e)Margin Regulations.

(f)Investment Company Act. No Loan Party nor any Subsidiary of a Loan Party is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act.

The Borrower’s interest in the Project Site Lease has not been assigned or pledged to any Person.

(k)Streets, Easements, Utilities and Other Services. All streets, easements, utilities and related services required for the use and operation of the Project Site and all facilities thereon have been obtained.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its debts or obligations under this Agreement, any Note, or any other Finance Document without the prior written consent of EXIM Bank.

12.04 Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

12.05 Disclaimer. EXIM Bank shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of any Supply Contract, and no claim against a Supplier or any other Person with respect to the performance of any Supply Contract will affect the obligations of any Loan Party under any of the Finance Documents.

12.06 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against EXIM Bank, and any other Indemnified Person (each such Person being called a “Protected Person”), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Finance Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Protected Person shall be

83

liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Finance Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

12.07 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to EXIM Bank, or EXIM Bank exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by EXIM Bank in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

12.08 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Finance Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its respective affiliates’ understanding, that (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between such Loan Party and EXIM Bank is intended to be or has been created in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Finance Documents, irrespective of whether EXIM Bank has advised or is advising such Loan Party on other matters, (b) each Loan Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed appropriate and (c) each Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Finance Documents.

12.09 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of EXIM Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, any Note or any other Finance Document and no course of dealing between or among any Loan Party and EXIM Bank shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, under any Note or any other Finance Document preclude any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies expressly provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that EXIM Bank would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of EXIM Bank to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

12.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Finance Documents contain the entire agreement among the parties hereto regarding the Credit Facility.

12.11 Amendment or Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, changed, discharged or terminated without the written consent of the parties hereto.

Delivery of an executed counterpart signature page by e-mail (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

12.13 Judgment Currency. Except as provided for in Section 7.03(b), all payments of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due hereunder, under any Note or any other Finance Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars, regardless of any law, rule, regulation or statute, whether now or hereafter in existence or in effect in any jurisdiction, which affects or purports to affect such obligations. The obligation of Loan Parties in respect of any amount due under this Agreement, any Note or any other Finance Document, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), shall be discharged only to the extent of the amount in U.S. Dollars that the Person entitled to receive that payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in that other currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately succeeding the day on which that Person receives that payment. If the amount in U.S. Dollars that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Loan Parties shall pay such additional amounts, in U.S. Dollars, to compensate for the shortfall. Any obligation of the Loan Parties not discharged by that payment shall continue to be due as a separate and independent obligation and shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 5.02 until discharged as provided herein.

12.14 English Language. All documents to be delivered by any party hereto pursuant to the terms hereof shall be in the English language or, if originally written in another language, shall be accompanied by an accurate English translation, upon which the other parties hereto shall have the right to rely for all purposes under this Agreement and any Note. If this Agreement or any other Finance Document (or any provision of this Agreement or any other Finance Document) is translated into any language other than English, the version which is in English shall prevail in case of any discrepancy with any version in any other language.

12.15 Severability. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

12.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER FINANCE DOCUMENT, EACH LOAN PARTY AND EXIM BANK HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN

85

CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR WITH ANY OTHER FINANCE DOCUMENT, WITH ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, WITH ANY COURSE OF DEALING, WITH ANY STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN), OR WITH ANY ACTIONS OR OMISSIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER FINANCE DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EXIM BANK TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

12.17 Survival. The expiration or termination of this Agreement does not terminate or affect any obligation hereunder that either expressly or by its nature survives the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

12.18 Patriot Act. In the event that EXIM Bank is subject to the PATRIOT Act, EXIM Bank hereby notifies each Loan Party that, pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow EXIM Bank to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

section 13 GUARANTEE.

13.01 Guarantors’ Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to EXIM Bank the full, prompt and complete payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Disbursements hereunder, interest thereon and any and all other amounts payable by the Borrower to EXIM Bank under this Agreement or any Note or any other Finance Document. If the Borrower shall fail to pay when due any or all sums hereby guaranteed (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the Guarantors shall forthwith pay, without any demand or notice, the full amount due and payable by the Borrower in U.S. Dollars at the place and in the manner required by this Agreement or any Note. This is a guarantee of payment and not merely of collection, and shall remain in full force and effect until all the obligations of the Borrower hereby guaranteed are paid in full. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Guarantor waives all defenses of a surety or guarantor to which it may be entitled by statute or otherwise.

13.02 Guarantee Continuing and Unconditional.

(a)The Guarantors’ Guarantee is a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and shall apply to all obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and any Note whenever arising. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantors’ Guarantee shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (i) the lack of genuineness, legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Note, any Finance Document or any other agreement or document contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) the surrender, release, exchange, substitution, taking of any additional collateral, or impairment of any collateral; (iii) failure by the Borrower to comply with any of the terms of this Agreement, any Note or any other Finance Document; (iv) any change in the name, authorized activities, capital stock, corporate existence, structure, personnel or ownership of the Borrower; (v) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower or its assets;

86

or (vi) any other act, omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, the Guarantors or EXIM Bank or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 13.02, constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense to any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

(b)Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, all diligence, presentments, demands, protests and notices of any kind whatsoever, including notices of nonperformance or nonpayment, notices of default, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guarantors’ Guarantee, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional obligations by the Borrower under this Agreement, any Note or any other Finance Document.

(c)Each Guarantor consents that, without notice to such Guarantor and without the necessity for any additional endorsement, consent or guarantee by such Guarantor, the liabilities of the Borrower hereby guaranteed may, from time to time, be renewed, extended, increased, accelerated, modified (including any change in interest rate or a switch from a floating to fixed rate of interest), amended, compromised, waived, released or discharged by EXIM Bank; and any security which is or in the future may be held, or any other guarantee issued for, the payment of the indebtedness of the Borrower under this Agreement, any Note or any other Finance Document may be exchanged, sold or surrendered by EXIM Bank, all without impairing or affecting in any way the obligation of such Guarantor hereunder. EXIM Bank shall not be obliged to enforce any remedies against the Borrower or any guarantee or security that it may hold before being entitled to payment from any Guarantor of the obligations hereby guaranteed.

(d)Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that until all amounts owing under this Agreement, any Note and any other Finance Document have been paid in full, unless EXIM Bank shall have otherwise consented in writing: (a) such Guarantor shall not take any action that would prevent or interfere with the observance and performance by the Borrower of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Borrower set forth in any of the Finance Documents and (b) such Guarantor shall not exercise any rights of subrogation which it may acquire due to its payment of the Borrower’s obligations pursuant to the Guarantors’ Guarantee unless and until all sums payable under this Agreement, any Note and any other Finance Document have been paid in full, and if any payment shall be made to any Guarantor on account of such rights of subrogation, it shall promptly pay such amount to EXIM Bank.

13.03 Reinstatement. The Guarantors’ Guarantee shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of obligations hereby guaranteed is recovered from or repaid by EXIM Bank or any other party as a result of any proceeding in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or otherwise.

13.04 Endorsement of Note(s). If a Note has been requested by EXIM Bank, to evidence further the Guarantors’ Guarantee contained in Section 13.01, each Guarantor agrees to endorse and execute the guarantee legend, in the form attached to Annex A on such Note, including any replacement Note issued pursuant to Section 5.04 herein.
