Each such written notice (each a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.08, shall be irrevocable and shall be given by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A, appropriately completed to specify (i) the portion of the Total Commitment to be utilized on such Borrowing Date, (ii) whether the Loans to be made on such Borrowing Date shall consist of Tranche A Loans or Tranche B Loans, (iii) if the Borrower and/or the Parent and/or an ECF Borrower has entered into Earmarked Foreign Exchange Arrangements with respect to the installment payments due and owing under the relevant Construction Contract to be funded by the Loans to be incurred on such Borrowing Date, the Dollar Equivalent of the portion of the Total Commitment to be borrowed on such Borrowing Date and evidence of such Earmarked Foreign Exchange Arrangements, (iv) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (v) the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto (vi) to which account(s) the proceeds of such Loans are to be deposited (it being understood that pursuant to Section 2.04 the Borrower may designate one or more accounts of the Yard, Hermes and/or the provider of the foreign exchange arrangements referenced in the definition of Dollar Equivalent), (vii) that all representations and warranties made by each Credit Party, in or pursuant to the Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects (unless stated to relate to a specific earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such date) and no Event of Default is or will be continuing after giving effect to such Borrowing and (viii) the Dollar Availability on such Borrowing Date together with calculations evidencing the determination of such Dollar Availability (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent). The Facility Agent shall promptly give each Lender which is required to make Loans, notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

2.04 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 12:00 Noon (Frankfurt time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender will make available its pro rata portion of each Borrowing requested in the Notice of Borrowing to be made on such date. All such amounts shall be made available in the currency required by Section 2.02(b) in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Facility Agent, and the Facility Agent will make available to (I) in the case of Loans disbursed in Dollars, the Borrower (and/or its designee(s), to the extent possible and to the extent such designee is a provider of Earmarked Foreign Exchange Arrangements referenced in the definition of Dollar Equivalent) and (II) in the case of Loans disbursed in Euro, designee(s) of the Borrower (to the extent any such designee is the Yard or, in the case of the Hermes Premium, Hermes), in each case prior to 3:00 P.M. (Frankfurt Time) on such day, to the extent of funds actually received by the Facility Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (Frankfurt Time) on such day in each case at the Payment Office in the account(s) specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing, the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders. Unless the Facility Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Facility Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Facility Agent may assume that

-33-

such Lender has made such amount available to the Facility Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Facility Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Facility Agent by such Lender, the Facility Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Facility Agent’s demand therefor, the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Facility Agent. The Facility Agent shall also be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Facility Agent to the Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Facility Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, at the overnight Eurodollar Rate and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.06. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder.

2.05 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder. The obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement are several and not joint and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to satisfy its obligations hereunder.

2.06 Interest. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to the Borrower until the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loan at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus any Mandatory Costs.

(b) If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Credit Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount (in the case of overdue interest to the extent permitted by law) from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is, subject to paragraph (c) below, 2% plus the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Section 2.06(b) shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Facility Agent.

(c) If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

(i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

-34-

(ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be 2% plus the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

(d) Accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable in respect of each Loan, (i) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and every three months in the case of Interest Periods in excess of three months, (ii) on any repayment or prepayment date (on the amount repaid or prepaid), (iii) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (iv) after such maturity, on demand.

(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Facility Agent shall determine the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the Loans to be made pursuant to the applicable Borrowing and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the respective Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.07 Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing in respect of the making of Loans by the Lenders (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such Loans (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), it shall have the right to elect, by giving the Facility Agent notice thereof, the interest period (each an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Loans, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a three or six month period; provided that:

(a) all Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(b) the initial Interest Period for any Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such Loan and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Loan shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(c) if any Interest Period relating to a Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(d) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the first succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

-35-

(e) no Interest Period longer than three months may be selected at any time when an Event of Default (or, if the Facility Agent or the Required Lenders have determined that such an election at such time would be disadvantageous to the Lenders, a Default) has occurred and is continuing;

(f) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Tranche A Loan Maturity Date (in the case of Tranche A Loans) or the Tranche B Loan Maturity Date (in the case of Tranche B Loans); and

(g) at no time shall there be more than ten Borrowings of Loans subject to different Interest Periods.

If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected a three month Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

2.08 Increased Costs, Illegality, Market Disruption, etc. (a) In the event that any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

(i) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs (including, without limitation, pursuant to Basel II to the extent Basel II is applicable), Mandatory Costs (as set forth on Schedule 1.01(c)) or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loan because of, without duplication, any change since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, governmental regulation, governmental order, governmental guideline or governmental request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, governmental regulation, governmental order, governmental guideline or governmental request, such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payment to any Lender of the principal of or interest on such Loan or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, the net income or net profits of such Lender, or any franchise tax based on net income or net profits, of such Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or in which such Lender’s principal office or applicable lending office is located or any subdivision thereof or therein), but without duplication of any amounts payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to Section 4.04, or (B) a change in official reserve requirements; or

(ii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has been made unlawful by any law or governmental rule, governmental regulation or governmental order;

then, and in any such event, such Lender shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the Facility Agent of such determination (which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of

-36-

clause (i) above, the Borrower agrees (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased costs or reductions to such Lender or such other corporation and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.08(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.08(a) shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.08(a), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amounts; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(b), the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its Credit Document Obligations hereunder.

(b) At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.08(a)(ii) shall) either (x) if the affected Loan is then being made initially, cancel the respective Borrowing by giving the Facility Agent notice in writing on the same date or the next Business Day that the Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii) or (y) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Facility Agent, in the case of any Loan, repay all outstanding Borrowings (within the time period required by the applicable law or governmental rule, governmental regulation or governmental order) which include such affected Loans in full in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 4.02; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.08(b).

(c) If any Lender determines that after the Effective Date (i) the introduction of or effectiveness of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, governmental regulation, governmental order, governmental guideline, governmental directive or governmental request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, (ii) compliance with any law or regulation or any request from or requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority made after the Effective Date (including any which relates to capital adequacy or liquidity controls or which affects the manner in which a Lender allocates capital resources to obligations under this Agreement, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement and/or any Other Hedging Agreement) or (iii) to the extent that such change is not discretionary and is pursuant to law, a governmental mandate or request, or a central bank or other fiscal or monetary authority mandate or request, any change in the risk weight allocated by such Lender to the Borrower after the Effective Date, then the Borrower agrees (to the extent applicable) to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation

-37-

as a result of such increase of capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.08(c) shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.08(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(b), the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its Credit Document Obligations hereunder.

(d) If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to any Lender’s share of a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Applicable Margin;

(ii) the rate determined by such Lender and notified to the Facility Agent by 5:00 P.M. (Frankfurt time) on the Interest Determination Date for such Interest Period to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to each such Lender of funding its participation in that Loan for a period equivalent to such Interest Period from whatever source it may reasonably select; provided that the rate provided by a Lender pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not be disclosed to any other Lender and shall be held as confidential by the Facility Agent and the Borrower; and

(iii) the Mandatory Costs, if any, applicable to such Lender of funding its participation in that Loan.

(e) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Borrower so require, the Facility Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all parties. If no agreement is reached pursuant to this clause (e), the rate provided for in clause (d) above shall apply for the entire applicable Interest Period.

(f) If any Reference Bank ceases to be a Lender under this Agreement, (x) it shall cease to be a Reference Bank and (y) the Facility Agent shall, with the approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Borrower, nominate as soon as reasonably practicable another Lender to be a Reference Bank in place of such Reference Bank.

2.09 Indemnification; Breakage Costs. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender, within two Business Days of demand (in writing which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting and the calculation of such amount and which in the absence of manifest error shall be conclusive evidence as to the amount due), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any such loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Loans but excluding any loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain in

-38-

respect of Loans made to the Borrower: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Facility Agent) a Borrowing of Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.08(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 2.08(a), Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11) of any of its Loans, or assignment and/or transfer of its Loans pursuant to Section 2.11, occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower.

2.10 Change of Lending Office; Limitation on Additional Amounts. (a) Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.08(a), Section 2.08(b), or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable good faith efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event or otherwise take steps to mitigate the effect of such event, provided that such designation shall be made and/or such steps shall be taken at the Borrower’s cost and on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage in excess of de minimus amounts, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.10 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender provided in Section 2.08 and Section 4.04.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.08, 2.09 or 4.04 of this Agreement, unless a Lender gives notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within 180 days of the later of (x) the date the Lender incurs the respective increased costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or (y) the date such Lender has knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, then such Lender shall only be entitled to be indemnified for such amount by the Borrower pursuant to said Section 2.08, 2.09, or 4.04, as the case may be, to the extent the costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs 180 days prior to such Lender giving notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to said Section 2.08, 2.09 or 4.04, as the case may be. This Section 2.10(b) shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than said Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 4.04.

2.11 Replacement of Lenders. (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its obligations to make Loans, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.08(a) or Section 4.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the Borrower material increased costs in excess of the average costs being charged by the other Lenders, or (z) as provided in Section 14.11(b) in the case of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall (for its own cost) have the right, if no Default or Event of Default will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective replacement, to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferee or Eligible Transferees, none of

-39-

whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Facility Agent (it being understood that all then-existing Lenders are reasonably acceptable); provided that:

(a) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Transfer Certificates pursuant to Section 13.01(a) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 13.02 to be paid by the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum (without duplication) of (x) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender, and (y) an amount equal to all accrued, but unpaid, Commitment Commission owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Section 3.01;

(b) all obligations of the Borrower due and owing to the Replaced Lender at such time (other than those specifically described in clause (a) above) in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement; and

(c) if the Borrower elects to replace any Lender pursuant to clause (x), (y) or (z) of this Section 2.11, the Borrower shall also replace each other Lender that qualifies for replacement under such clause (x), (y) or (z).

Upon the execution of the respective Transfer Certificate and the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.08, 2.09, 4.04, 14.01 and 14.05), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender.

2.12 Disruption to Payment Systems, Etc. If either the Facility Agent determines (in its discretion) that a Disruption Event has occurred or the Facility Agent is notified by the Parent or the Borrower that a Disruption Event has occurred:

(i) the Facility Agent may, and shall if requested to do so by the Borrower or the Parent, consult with the Borrower with a view to agreeing with the Borrower such changes to the operation or administration of this Agreement as the Facility Agent may deem necessary in the circumstances;

(ii) the Facility Agent shall not be obliged to consult with the Borrower or the Parent in relation to any changes mentioned in clause (i) above if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances and, in any event, shall have no obligation to agree to such changes;

(iii) the Facility Agent may consult with the other Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders in relation to any changes mentioned in clause (i) above but shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion, it is not practicable or necessary to do so in the circumstances;

-40-

(iv) any such changes agreed upon by the Facility Agent and the Borrower or the Parent pursuant to clause (i) above shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the parties to this Agreement as an amendment to (or, as the case may be, waiver of) the terms of the Credit Documents, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.11, until such time as the Facility Agent is satisfied that the Disruption Event has ceased to apply;

(v) the Facility Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever (including, without limitation for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Facility Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Section 2.12; and

(vi) the Facility Agent shall notify the other Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders of all changes agreed pursuant to clause (iv) above as soon as practicable.

SECTION 3. Commitment Commission; Fees; Reductions of Commitment.

3.01 Commitment Commission. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay the Facility Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender a commitment commission (the “Commitment Commission”) for the period from the Effective Date to and including the Commitment Termination Date (or such earlier date as the Total Commitment shall have been terminated) computed at a rate for each day equal to 0.375 multiplied by the Applicable Margin multiplied by the Commitment for such day of such Non-Defaulting Lender divided by 360. Accrued Commitment Commission shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date and on the Borrowing Date corresponding to the second Delivery Date to occur (or such earlier date upon which the Total Commitment is terminated).

(b) The Borrower shall pay to each Agent, for such Agent’s own account or for the account of the Lenders, such other fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and such Agent.

3.02 Voluntary Reduction or Termination of Commitments. Upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Facility Agent at its Notice Office (which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty, to reduce or terminate the Total Commitment, in whole or in part, in integral multiples of €5,000,000 in the case of partial reductions thereto, provided that (x) any partial reduction to the Total Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall only be effective if there is an equal reduction of the “Total Commitment” under and as defined in the Other Term Loan Facility and (y) each such reduction shall apply proportionately to permanently reduce the Commitment of each Lender.

3.03 Mandatory Reduction of Commitments. (a) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this Section 3.03 or any other Section of this Agreement, the Total Commitment (and the Commitment of each Lender) shall terminate in its entirety on the Commitment Termination Date.

-41-

(b) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this Section 3.03 or any other Section of this Agreement, the Total Commitment (and the Commitments of each Lender) shall be reduced:

(i) (immediately after the relevant Loans are made) on each Borrowing Date by the amount of Total Commitment utilized to make the Loans made on such Borrowing Date; and

(ii) on each borrowing date under the Other Term Loan Facility (immediately after the relevant loans are made on such borrowing date under the Other Term Loan Facility) by the amount of Total Commitment utilized to make the loans under the Other Term Loan Facility on such borrowing date.

(c) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this Section 3.03 or any other Section of this Agreement, the Total Commitment shall be terminated at the times required by Section 4.02.

(d) Each reduction to the Total Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.03 and Section 4.02 shall be applied proportionately to reduce the Commitment of each Lender.

(e) In addition to any other mandatory commitment reductions pursuant to this Section 3.03 or any other Section of this Agreement, the Total Commitment shall be reduced pursuant to Section 3.03 and 3.02 of the Other Term Loan Facility.

SECTION 4. Prepayments; Repayments; Taxes.

4.01 Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, without premium or penalty except as provided by law, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on the following terms and conditions:

(a) the Borrower shall give the Facility Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (Frankfurt time) at its Notice Office at least 30 Business Days’ prior written notice of its intent to prepay such Loans, the amount of such prepayment and the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders;

(b) each prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or such lesser amount of a Borrowing which is outstanding, provided that no partial prepayment of Loans made pursuant to any Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than $1,000,000;

(c) at the time of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01 on any date other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.09;

(d) in the event of certain refusals by a Lender as provided in Section 14.11(b) to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower

-42-

may, upon five Business Days’ written notice to the Facility Agent at its Notice Office (which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), prepay all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, Commitment Commission, and other amounts owing to such Lender (or owing to such Lender with respect to each Loan which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) in accordance with said Section 14.11(b) so long as (A) the Commitment of such Lender (if any) is terminated concurrently with such prepayment (at which time Schedule 1.01(a) shall be deemed modified to reflect the changed Commitments) and (B) the consents required by Section 14.11(b) in connection with the prepayment pursuant to this clause (d) have been obtained; and

(e) each prepayment in respect of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied (x) in inverse order of maturity and (y) except as expressly provided in the preceding clause (d), pro rata among the Loans comprising such Borrowing, provided that in connection with any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender until all other Loans of Non-Defaulting Lenders have been repaid in full.

4.02 Mandatory Repayments and Commitment Reductions.

-44-

Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein or due to failure to provide documents under Section 4.04(b), all such taxes “Excluded Taxes”) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges to the extent imposed on taxes other than Excluded Taxes (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes” and “Taxation” shall be applied accordingly). The Borrower will furnish to the Facility Agent within 45 days after the date of payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Lender for Taxes attributed to such Lender’s failure to provide the required documents under this Section 4.04(b).

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lender Creditors as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Lender Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Credit Document Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed, provided that to the extent such proceeds are (a) in respect of ECF Collateral related to Vessel 1, such proceeds will be applied first to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations in respect of Tranche A Loans and second to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations in respect of Tranche B Loans, and (b) in respect of ECF Collateral related to Vessel 2, such proceeds will be applied first to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations in respect of Tranche B Loans and second to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations in respect of Tranche A Loans;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Other Obligations shall be paid to the Other Creditors as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Other Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Other Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Other Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed, provided that to the extent such monies are (a) in respect of ECF Collateral related to Vessel 1, such proceeds will be applied first to the outstanding Other Obligations in respect of Tranche A Loans and second to the outstanding Other Obligations in respect of Tranche B Loans, and (b) in respect of ECF Collateral related to Vessel 2, such proceeds will be applied first to the outstanding Other Obligations in respect of Tranche B Loans and second to the outstanding Other Obligations in respect of Tranche A Loans; and

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be.

-46-

(c) If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors, to the Facility Agent under this Agreement for the account of the Lender Creditors, and (y) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 4.05, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Facility Agent under this Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which the Facility Agent, each Representative for any Other Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Credit Document Obligations and Other Obligations owed to the Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements are in existence.

(f) It is understood and agreed that each Credit Party shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it under and pursuant to the Security Documents and the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations of such Credit Party.

13.11 Lender Participations. (a) Although any Lender may grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer by novation its rights and obligations or assign its rights under all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.11 and 13.01) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder; and

In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

13.12 Increased Costs. To the extent that a transfer of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Credit Document Obligations pursuant to Section 2.11 or Section 13.01 would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.08, 2.09 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment).

SECTION 14. Miscellaneous.

-91-

14.02 Right of Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent but in any event excluding assets held in trust for any such Person against and on account of the Credit Document Obligations and liabilities of the Parent or such Subsidiary of the Parent, as applicable, to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Credit Document Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 14.05(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Credit Document Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender upon the exercise of its rights to set-off pursuant to this Section 14.02 shall give notice thereof to the Facility Agent.

14.03 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telexed, telegraphic, telecopier or electronic (unless and until notified to the contrary) communication) and mailed, telexed, telecopied, delivered or electronic mailed: if to any Credit Party, at the address specified on Schedule 14.03A; if to any Lender, at its address specified opposite its name on Schedule 14.03B; and if to the Facility Agent or the Hermes Agent, at its Notice Office; or, as to any other Credit Party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Parent, the Borrower and the Facility Agent; provided that, with respect to all notices and other communication made by electronic mail or other electronic means, the Facility Agent, the Hermes Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Parent (x) agree that they shall notify each other in writing of their electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by that means and (y) they shall notify each other of any change to their address or any other such information supplied by them.

A copy of any notice to the Facility Agent shall be delivered to the Hermes Agent at its Notice Office. If an Agent is an Impaired Agent the parties to this Agreement may, instead of communicating with each other through such Agent, communicate with each other directly and (while such Agent is an Impaired Agent) all the provisions of the Credit Documents which

-92-

require communications to be made or notices to be given to or by such Agent shall be varied so that communications may be made and notices given to or by the relevant parties to this Agreement directly. This provision shall not operate after a replacement Agent has been appointed.

14.04 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of an Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and an Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which an Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of an Agent or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

14.05 Payments Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Facility Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Credit Document Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Credit Document Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Other than in connection with assignments and participations (which are governed by Section 13), each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Commitment Commission, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Credit Document Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Credit Document Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Credit Document Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 14.05(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders.

-93-

(a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Parent to the Lenders). In addition, all computations determining compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Sections 10.06 through 10.09, inclusive, shall utilize accounting principles and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the historical financial statements delivered to the Lenders for the fiscal year of the Parent ended December 31, 2009 (with the foregoing generally accepted accounting principles, subject to the preceding proviso, herein called “GAAP”). Unless otherwise noted, all references in this Agreement to “generally accepted accounting principles” shall mean generally accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States.

(b) All computations of interest and Commitment Commission hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Commitment Commission are payable.

(b) THE COURTS OF ENGLAND HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO SETTLE ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING A DISPUTE RELATING TO THE EXISTENCE, VALIDITY OR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NON-CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT) (A “DISPUTE”). THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THE COURTS OF ENGLAND ARE THE MOST APPROPRIATE AND CONVENIENT COURTS TO SETTLE DISPUTES AND ACCORDINGLY NO PARTY HERETO WILL ARGUE TO THE CONTRARY. THIS SECTION 14.07 IS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE LENDERS, AGENTS AND SECURED CREDITORS. AS A RESULT, NO SUCH PARTY SHALL BE PREVENTED FROM TAKING PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO A DISPUTE IN ANY OTHER COURTS WITH JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THE LENDERS, AGENTS AND SECURED CREDITORS MAY TAKE CONCURRENT PROCEEDINGS IN ANY NUMBER OF JURISDICTIONS.

(c) WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO ANY OTHER MODE OF SERVICE ALLOWED UNDER ANY RELEVANT LAW, EACH CREDIT PARTY (OTHER THAN A CREDIT PARTY INCORPORATED IN ENGLAND AND WALES): (I)IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS EC3 SERVICES LIMITED, HAVING ITS REGISTERED OFFICE AT 00 XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXX, XX0X 0XX, AS ITS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN RELATION TO ANY PROCEEDINGS BEFORE THE ENGLISH COURTS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT AND (II) AGREES THAT FAILURE BY AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS TO NOTIFY THE RELEVANT CREDIT PARTY OF THE PROCESS WILL NOT INVALIDATE THE PROCEEDINGS CONCERNED. IF ANY PERSON APPOINTED AS AN AGENT FOR

-94-

SERVICE OF PROCESS IS UNABLE FOR ANY REASON TO ACT AS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS, THE PARENT (ON BEHALF OF ALL THE CREDIT PARTIES) MUST IMMEDIATELY (AND IN ANY EVENT WITHIN FIVE DAYS OF SUCH EVENT TAKING PLACE) APPOINT ANOTHER AGENT ON TERMS ACCEPTABLE TO THE FACILITY AGENT. FAILING THIS, THE FACILITY AGENT MAY APPOINT ANOTHER AGENT FOR THIS PURPOSE.

14.15 Register. The Facility Agent shall maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment and prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the assignment or transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of,

Notwithstanding any term of any Credit Document, the consent of any person who is not a party to this Agreement is not required to rescind or vary this Agreement at any time.

14.17 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Facility Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Facility Agent’s Frankfurt office on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or an Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or an Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or an Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency; if the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or an Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or an Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or an Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such Lender or an Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

14.18 Language. All correspondence, including, without limitation, all notices, reports and/or certificates, delivered by any Credit Party to an Agent or any Lender shall, unless otherwise agreed by the respective recipients thereof, be submitted in the English language or, to the extent the original of such document is not in the English language, such document shall be delivered with a certified English translation thereof. In the event of any conflict between the English translation and the original text of any document, the English translation shall prevail unless the original text is a statutory instrument, legal process or any other document of a similar type or a notice, demand or other communication from Hermes or in relation to the Hermes Cover.

14.19 Waiver of Immunity. The Borrower, in respect of itself, each other Credit Party, its and their process agents, and its and their properties and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of its or their properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity from any legal proceedings, whether in the United Kingdom, the United States, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Germany, the Isle of Man or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Credit Document Obligations of the Borrower or any other Credit Party related to or arising from the transactions contemplated by any of the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, the Borrower, for itself and on behalf of the other Credit Parties, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United Kingdom, the United States, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Germany, the Isle of Man or elsewhere.

14.20 “Know Your Customer” Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act and/or other applicable laws and regulations, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and/or such other applicable laws and regulations, and each Credit Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender.

14.21 Release of Liens and the Parent Guaranty; Flag Jurisdiction Transfer. (a) In the event that any Person conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of the Collateral to a Person that is not (and is not required to become) a Credit Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement or the Credit Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), each Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Collateral Agent to release any Liens created by any Credit Document in respect of such Collateral, and, in the case of a disposition of all of the Equity Interests of any Credit Party (other than the Borrower) in a transaction permitted by this Agreement and as a result of which such Credit Party would not be required to guaranty the Credit Document Obligations pursuant to Section 15, each Lender hereby consents to the release of such Credit Party’s obligations under the relevant guarantee to which it is a party. Each Lender hereby directs the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent agrees, upon receipt of reasonable advance notice from the Borrower, to execute and deliver or, at the Borrower’s expense, file such documents and perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the relevant guarantee, as applicable, and the Liens when and as directed pursuant to this Section 14.21. In addition, the Collateral Agent agrees to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to terminate the Liens and security interests created by the Credit Documents when all the Credit Document Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Credit Document Obligations and expense reimbursement claims to the extent no claim therefore has been made) are paid in full and Commitments are terminated. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Credit Document relating to any such Equity Interests or, asset of the Borrower shall no longer be deemed to be made once such Equity Interests or asset is so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or disposed of.

-99-

(b) In the event that the Borrower desires to implement a Flag Jurisdiction Transfer with respect to the Collateral Vessel, upon receipt of reasonable advance notice thereof from the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall use commercially reasonably efforts to provide, or (as necessary) procure the provision of, all such reasonable assistance as any Credit Party may request from time to time in relation to (i) the Flag Jurisdiction Transfer, (ii) the related deregistration of the Collateral Vessel from its previous flag jurisdiction, and (iii) the release and discharge of the related Security Documents provided that the relevant Credit Party shall pay all documented out of pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent or a Secured Creditor in connection with provision of such assistance. Each Lender hereby consents, in connection with any Flag Jurisdiction Transfer and subject to the satisfaction of the requirements thereof to be satisfied by the relevant Credit Party, to (i) deregister the Collateral Vessel from its previous flag jurisdiction and (ii) release and hereby direct the Collateral Agent to release the Collateral Vessel Mortgage. Each Lender hereby directs the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent agrees to execute and deliver or, at the Borrower’s expense, file such documents and perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the Vessel Mortgage when and as directed pursuant to this Section 14.21(b).

14.22 Partial Invalidity. If, at any time, any provision of the Credit Documents is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired. Any such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision shall to the extent possible be substituted by a legal, valid and enforceable provision which reflects the intention of the parties to this Agreement.

SECTION 15. Parent Guaranty.

15.01 Guaranty and Indemnity. The Parent irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) guarantees to each Lender Creditor punctual performance by each other Credit Party of all that Credit Party’s Credit Document Obligations under the Credit Documents; or

(ii) undertakes with each Lender Creditor that whenever another Credit Party does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Credit Document, the Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

(iii) agrees with each Lender Creditor that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Lender Creditor immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of a Credit Party not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Credit Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Section 15 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

-100-

15.02 Continuing Guaranty. This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Credit Party under the Credit Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

15.03 Reinstatement. If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Credit Party or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Lender Creditor in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of the Guarantor under this Section 15 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

15.04 Waiver of Defenses. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 15 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Section 15, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Section 15 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Lender Creditor) including:

(i) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Credit Party or other person;

(ii) the release of any other Credit Party or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the NCLC Group;

(iii) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Credit Party or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realize the full value of any security;

(iv) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of a Credit Party or any other person;

(v) any amendment, novation, supplement, extension restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Credit Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Credit Document or other document or security;

(vi) any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Credit Document or any other document or security; or

(vii) any insolvency or similar proceedings.

15.05 Guarantor Intent. Without prejudice to the generality of Section 15.04, the Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Credit Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Credit Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out

-101-

restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

15.06 Immediate Recourse. The Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Credit Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from the Guarantor under this Section 15. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Credit Document to the contrary.

15.07 Appropriations. Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Credit Parties under or in connection with the Credit Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Lender Creditor (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(i) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Lender Creditor (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(ii) hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Guarantor or on account of the Guarantor’s liability under this Section 15.

15.08 Deferral of Guarantor’s Rights. Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Credit Parties under or in connection with the Credit Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Facility Agent otherwise directs, the Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Credit Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Section 15:

(i) to be indemnified by a Credit Party;

(ii) to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Credit Party’s obligations under the Credit Documents;

(iii) to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Lender Creditors under the Credit Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Credit Documents by any Lender Creditor;

(iv) to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Credit Party to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Section 15.01;

(v) to exercise any right of set-off against any Credit Party; and/or

-102-

(vi) to claim or prove as a creditor of any Credit Party in competition with any Lender Creditor.

If the Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Lender Creditors by the Credit Parties under or in connection with the Credit Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Lender Creditors and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Section 4.

15.09 Additional Security. This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Credit Party.

SCHEDULE 1.01(c)

MANDATORY COSTS

The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Facility Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Facility Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders' Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Facility Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facility Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender's participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Facility Agent as follows:

in relation to a sterling Loan:

[*] per cent. per annum

in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:

[*] per cent. per annum.

Where:

is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in paragraph (b) of Section 2.06 payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Facility Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facility Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5.	For the purposes of this Schedule:

“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under Column 1 of the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate);

“Participating Member State” means any member state of the European Communities that adopts or has adopted the euro as its lawful currency in accordance with legislation of the European Community relating to Economic and Monetary Union.

“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules; and

“Unpaid Sum” means any sum due and payable but unpaid by any Credit Party under the Credit Documents.

In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

If requested by the Facility Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facility Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Facility Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

any other information that the Facility Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Facility Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10.

The Facility Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11.	The Facility Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12.	Any determination by the Facility Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement.

13.

The Facility Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Parent and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties to the Credit Agreement any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement.

SCHEDULE 5.12

INITIAL BORROWING DATE OPINIONS

1.	Pursuant to Section 5.12(a) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, O’Melveny & Xxxxx, Counsel to the Credit Parties opine as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 1 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

The Borrower is a limited liability company existing under the laws of Delaware, with power under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Delaware LLC Act”) and its certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement (its “LLC Organizational Documents”) to enter into each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and to perform its obligations thereunder.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action under the Delaware LLC Act and its LLC Organizational Documents on the part of the Borrower.

The Power of Attorney has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower.

Certain of the Transaction Documents provide that they are to be governed by English law. To the extent that such Transaction Documents are governed by English law or the law of any other jurisdiction, we express no opinion as to those laws or their applicability to matters covered by this opinion, nor do we express any opinion as to whether or not New York law is applicable to such Transaction Documents. However, we are of the opinion that if the Transaction Documents were governed (or are actually governed, as the case may be) by the laws of the state of New York (without reference to New York choice of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction), the execution and delivery by each Credit Party of each Transaction Document to which it is a party do not, and each Credit Party’s performance of its obligations under each Transaction Document to which it is a party will not, violate, breach, or constitute a default, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than the liens, charges or encumbrances under the Transaction Documents) upon any of the assets of such Credit Party or give any other party thereto the right to accelerate under, any existing obligation or restriction on such Credit Party under any other agreement (the “Other Agreements”) listed in Schedule I to the Officer’s Certificate. If any Other Agreement is governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than the state of New York, we have assumed such Other Agreement would be interpreted in accordance with its plain meaning, except that technical terms would mean what lawyers generally understand them to mean for agreements governed by the laws of the state of New York. We express no opinion with respect to any provision of any Other Agreement to the extent that an opinion with respect to such provision would require making any financial, accounting or mathematical calculation or determination.

The execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party do not, and the Borrower’s performance of its obligations under each such Transaction Document will not, violate the current Delaware LLC Act or any current federal statute, rule or regulation that we have, in the exercise of customary professional diligence, recognized as applicable to the Borrower or to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

Upon the filing of the Delaware UCC Financing Statements with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Filing Office”), the Facility Agent will have a perfected security interest in the Borrower’s interest in the Earnings (as defined in the Assignment of Earnings) in which a security interest may be perfected under Delaware Article 9 (as defined below) by the filing of a financing statement in the State of Delaware.

(a)

No order, consent, permit or approval of any federal governmental authority that we have, in the exercise of customary professional diligence, recognized as applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents is required on the part of the Borrower for the execution and delivery of, and performance of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents.

2.	Pursuant to Section 5.12(b) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, CAINS Advocates Limited, special Isle of Man counsel to the Borrower, opines as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 2 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

Status

The Borrower is a company limited by shares duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the Isle of Man and possesses the capacity to xxx and to be sued in its own name.

No Liquidator or Receiver

As far as was shown on the Search Date on the file of the Borrower maintained by the Registrar, no steps have been or are being taken to appoint a receiver, liquidator or analogous person or body over or to wind up or dissolve the Borrower or to take analogous action.

Capacity

The Borrower has the corporate capacity to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Documents.

Authority

The Borrower has passed all necessary resolutions and taken all necessary corporate actions to authorise the execution, delivery and performance of each of the Documents and to incur the obligations referred to therein, and each of the Documents has been validly executed by and on behalf of the Borrower.

Authority and Due Execution

The Documents have been executed by duly authorised representatives of the Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and conditions.

Approvals and Consents

No authorisations, approvals and consents (including without limitation any exchange control consents) from any governmental or other authorities in the Isle of Man are required to be obtained by the Borrower in relation to the execution and delivery by it of the Documents or the exercise of its rights and the performance of its obligations thereunder or to make the Documents admissible in evidence in the Isle of Man.

Non Conflict

The execution, delivery and performance of the Documents by the Borrower does not and will not:

(i) contravene any existing law or regulation of the Isle of Man to which it is subject; or

(ii) contravene any provision of the Borrower’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Filings and Registrations

In order not to be void against the liquidator and any creditor of the Borrower, each of the Security Documents should be delivered to the Registrar (together with the prescribed particulars) within one month of the date of its creation (pursuant to Section 138 of the Act); save for such delivery, it is not necessary or advisable under the laws of the Isle of Man, in order to ensure the validity, effectiveness and enforceability of the Documents, that the same be filed, registered or recorded in any public office in the Isle of Man or that any other action be taken.

Stamp and Registration Duties

The Documents do not give rise to any registration duty, stamp duty or similar duty in or imposed by the Isle of Man or any authority or agency thereof.

Immunity

The Borrower is subject to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the Isle of Man and is not entitled to claim any immunity from suit or execution of any judgment on the ground of sovereignty or otherwise.

Choice of Law

The choice of law provision in each of the Documents (save for the Mortgage) (providing for the same to be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of England) is a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and will be recognised by the Courts of the Isle of Man as the proper law of the Documents.

Submission to Jurisdiction

The submission by the Borrower to the jurisdiction of the Courts of England contained in each of the Documents (save for the Mortgage) is a valid submission and is binding on the Borrower.

Enforcement of English Judgment

Any judgment for a fixed sum of money obtained against the Borrower in the High Court of England will be enforceable against it in the Isle of Man provided that such judgment is final and conclusive and was not obtained by fraud or contrary to public policy of the Isle of Man at the time or contrary to the rules of natural justice in the Isle of Man at the time and provided that the correct procedures under the laws of the Isle of Man (including registration of the English judgment with the Isle of Man Courts) are complied with.

Enforcement of Bahamian Judgment

There is no statutory procedure in the Isle of Man for the recognition or enforcement of judgments of the courts of the Bahamas. However, under Isle of Man common law, a foreign judgment in personam given by the court of a foreign country with jurisdiction to give that judgment may be recognised and enforced by an action for the amount due under it provided that the judgment: (i) is for a debt or definite sum of money (not being a sum payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty); (ii) is final and conclusive; (iii) was not obtained by fraud; (iv) is not one whose enforcement would be contrary to public policy in the Isle of Man; and (v) was not obtained in proceedings which were opposed to natural justice in the Isle of Man.

No Isle of Man Licensing Requirement

It is not necessary in order to enable the Lenders to claim and enforce in the Isle of Man any right afforded by the Documents, or by reason of the execution, delivery and performance of the Documents by the Lenders, that the Lenders should be licensed, qualified or otherwise entitled to carry on business in or otherwise registered with any authority of or in the Isle of Man.

No Deemed Isle of Man Residence

The Lenders will not be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on business in the Isle of Man by reason only of the execution, performance and/or enforcement of any of the Documents.

No Default Proceedings Revealed

As at the Search Date, our search of the Court Indices via the General Registry website in the Isle of Man did not reveal the existence of any default proceedings in the Isle of Man to which the Borrower is a party.

No Exchange Control

No foreign exchange control regulations are in existence in the Isle of Man in relation to the exchange and remittance of sterling or any other currency from the Isle of Man and no authorisations, approvals or consents will be required from any authority in the Isle of Man in relation to the exchange and remittance of sterling and any other currency whether awarded by reason of a judgment or otherwise falling due and having been paid in the Isle of Man in relation to any obligation set out in any of the Documents.

Isle of Man Withholding Tax

All payments made by the Borrower under the Documents may be made without deduction of any Isle of Man withholding tax.

3.	Pursuant to Section 5.12(c) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, special Bermuda counsel to the Credit Parties, opines as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 3 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

(a)

Each of the Parent, Breakaway One and Breakaway Two (for the purpose of this Clause 3 of Schedule 5.12 only, the “Companies) is duly incorporated with limited liability and is existing and in good standing under the laws of Bermuda (meaning that it has not failed to make any filing with any Bermuda governmental authority or to pay any Bermuda government fee or tax which might make it liable to be struck off the Register of Companies and thereby cease to exist under the laws of Bermuda).

(b)

The entering into of the relevant Opinion Documents and the execution and delivery of the relevant Opinion Documents by each of the Companies and the performance by each of the Companies of its obligations thereunder:

(i)

are within its corporate powers and have been duly authorised; and

(ii)

will not conflict with the memorandum of association or bye-laws of such Company or violate or result in the breach of any Bermuda law or regulation.

(c)

Each of the Opinion Documents has been duly executed by the Companies party thereto and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of such Companies, enforceable in Bermuda in accordance with its terms.

(d)

Based solely on the Litigation Searches, there are no judgments against, nor legal or governmental actions or proceedings pending in Bermuda to which any of the Companies is subject.

(e)

Based solely on the Company Searches, there are no notices to the Registrar of the passing of a resolution of members or creditors to wind up any of the Companies and no notice appointing a liquidator or receiver has been provided to the Registrar.

(f)

No authorisation, consent, approval, license, qualification or formal exemption from, or any filing, declaration or registration with any court, governmental or municipal authority or other public body of Bermuda is required in connection with the execution and delivery of the Opinion Documents, the performance by each of the Companies of its obligations under the relevant Opinion Documents, the enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Opinion Documents.

(g)

It is not necessary or desirable to ensure the enforceability in Bermuda of the Opinion Documents that they be registered in any register kept by, or filed with, any governmental or municipal authority or other public or regulatory body in Bermuda. However, on the basis that each of the Security Documents creates a charge over assets of the relevant Companies, it is desirable, in order to ensure the priority in Bermuda of the charge created, that such document be registered in the Register of Charges in accordance with Section 55 of the Act. On registration, to the extent that Bermuda law governs the priority of a charge, such charge will have priority in Bermuda over any unregistered charges, and over any subsequently registered charges, in respect of the property subject to such charge. A registration fee will be payable in respect of the registration.

(h)

The Opinion Documents will not be subject to ad valorem stamp duty, registration, recording, filing or other fees, duties or taxes in Bermuda and no such fees, duties or taxes are payable in Bermuda in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of the Opinion Documents.

(i)

The choice of the English Laws as the governing law of the Opinion Documents is a valid choice of law and the submission by the Companies to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts is valid and binding upon the Companies and would be recognised and given effect to in any action brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in Bermuda, except for those laws:

(i)

which such court considers to be procedural in nature;

(ii)

which are revenue or penal laws; or

(iii)

the application of which would be inconsistent with public policy, as such term is interpreted under the laws of Bermuda.

(j)

The payment obligations of the Companies under the Opinion Documents are direct, general and unconditional obligations of such Company and rank at least pari passu with all other present or future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of such Company other than indebtedness which is preferred by virtue of any provision of the laws of Bermuda of general application.

(k)

None of the Companies nor any of their respective assets are entitled to immunity from suit, execution, attachment of legal process under the laws of Bermuda, whether characterised as sovereign immunity or otherwise from any legal action or proceeding in Bermuda (which shall include, without limitation, suit, attachment prior to judgment, execution or other enforcement).

(l)

No Bermuda taxes are imposed by withholding or otherwise on any payment to be made by any of the Companies under the relevant Opinion Documents or are imposed on or by virtue of the execution or delivery by the Companies of the Opinion Documents or any document or instrument to be executed or delivered under the Opinion Documents.

(m)

The courts of Bermuda will recognise as a valid judgment any final and conclusive judgment obtained against the Companies by any party to the Opinion Documents based upon such document in the English Courts under which a sum of money is payable (other than a sum of money payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty or multiple damages as defined in the Protection of Trading Interests Act 1981) and such a judgment will be enforced by the Supreme Court of Bermuda under The Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Xxx 0000 (the “1958 Act”) without re-examination of the merits of the case provided that:

(i)

the judgment is final and conclusive notwithstanding that an appeal may be pending against it or that it may still be subject to an appeal in the relevant jurisdiction;

(ii)

the judgment has not been given on appeal from a court which is not a superior court; and

(iii)

the judgment is duly registered in the Supreme Court of Bermuda in circumstances in which its registration is not liable thereafter to be set aside.

(n)

Under Section 3 of the 1958 Act, the registration of the judgment of the English Courts in the Supreme Court of Bermuda involves the conversion of the judgment debt into Bermuda Dollars at the date of such court’s judgment. However, the Bermuda Monetary Authority has indicated that its present policy is to give the consent necessary for the Bermuda dollar award made by the Supreme Court of Bermuda to be converted into external currency. No stamp duty or similar or other tax or duty is payable in Bermuda on the enforcement of a foreign judgment. Court fees will be payable in connection with proceedings for enforcement.

(o)

No party to the Opinion Documents will be deemed to be resident, domiciled, carrying on business or subject to taxation in Bermuda by reason only of the negotiation, preparation, execution, performance, enforcement of, and or receipt of any payment due from the Companies under the relevant Opinion Documents.

(p)

It is not necessary under the laws of Bermuda:

(i)

in order to enable any party to enforce its rights under the Opinion Documents; or

(ii)

by reason of the execution, delivery and performance of the Opinion Documents by the parties thereto,

that such persons should be licensed, qualified or otherwise entitled to carry on business in Bermuda.

Pursuant to Section 5.12(d) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, White & Case LLP (London Office), special English counsel to the Documentation Agent for the benefit of the Joint Lead Arrangers opines as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 4 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

(b)

the obligations expressed to be assumed by each of the Borrower, the Parent and the ECF Borrowers in the Credit Documents to which it is a party constitute its valid, legally binding and enforceable obligations;

(c)

there is no requirement under English law for the consent or authorisation of, or the filing, recording or enrolment of any documents with, any court or other authority in England and Wales to be obtained or made in order to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Credit Documents;

(d)

English courts of competent jurisdiction will give effect to the choice of English law as the proper law of the Credit Documents and will regard express submission by the Borrower, the Parent and each of the ECF Borrowers to the jurisdiction contained in the Credit Documents as sufficient to confer jurisdiction upon them over proceedings within the scope of the submission;

(e)

no stamp duty or similar tax is payable in the United Kingdom in respect of the execution or delivery of the Credit Documents;

(f)

neither the Construction Contracts nor the Refund Guarantees contain any restrictions which prevent them from being assigned to, or charged in favour of, the Collateral Agent; and

(g)

the Assignments of Contract are effective to create valid security interests in favour of the Collateral Agent.

Pursuant to Section 5.12(e) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, White & Case LLP (Hamburg Office) special German counsel to the Documentation Agent for the benefit of the Joint Lead Arrangers opine as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 5 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

The Declaration of Guarantee constitutes a valid and legally binding guarantee of the Federal Republic of Germany towards [•] subject to the specific provisions set out in the Declaration of Guarantee and subject to the applicable General Terms and Conditions and Guidelines.

6.	Pursuant to Section 5.12(f) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Co., special Bahamas counsel to the Credit Parties opine as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 6 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

(a)

Under the laws of The Bahamas the Borrower is the registered owner of record of sixty-four sixty-fourth shares, being the whole thereof of the Norwegian Jade and the Norwegian Jade Mortgage constitutes the valid and legally binding act of the Borrower and the Norwegian Jade Mortgage is enforceable in accordance with its terms, and further, the Norwegian Jade Mortgage creates in favour of the Mortgagee a valid and effective fourth priority legal mortgage over the Norwegian Jade and there are no other charges, mortgages or encumbrances on record with respect thereto. It should be noted that maritime liens as set out in Section 281 of The Merchant Shipping Act of The Bahamas have priority over mortgages even if such liens are incurred after a mortgage has been registered.

(b)

No further registration authorization, approval or consent or other official action in The Bahamas is necessary to render any of the Documents or the security respectively created thereby valid, perfected and enforceable.

(c)

All filing, registration and recording fees required under the laws of The Bahamas in connection with the Norwegian Jade Mortgage and other fees necessary to ensure the validity, effectiveness and priority of any liens, charges and encumbrances created under the Norwegian Jade Mortgage have been paid.

(d)

The courts of The Bahamas will recognize as a valid judgment and enforce any final, conclusive and enforceable judgment obtained against a mortgagor in a United Kingdom court without re-examination of the merits of the case subject to registration of the judgment under the provisions of the Reciprocal Enforcements of Judgments Act of the Bahamas.

(e)

The Norwegian Jade Mortgage constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and is enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

(f)

No consents, authorizations or other approvals are required from any governmental or other authority of The Bahamas for the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Documents by any of the parties thereto or the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein.

(g)

Neither the execution nor delivery of the Documents by the Borrower, nor the performance of its obligations under the Documents, will contravene any existing applicable law or regulation of The Bahamas.

(h)

The Borrower is not entitled or required under any existing applicable law or regulation of The Bahamas to make any withholding or deduction in respect of any tax or otherwise from any payment which it is or may be required to make under the Documents (or any of them) and other than the fees paid in connection with the registration of the Norwegian Jade Mortgage no tax, impost, duty or registration fee is payable on any of the Documents in The Bahamas save for registration fees on the Norwegian Jade Mortgage.

(i)

Other than the fees paid in connection with the registration of the Norwegian Jade Mortgage, no stamp or registration duty or similar taxes or charges are payable in The Bahamas in respect of the Documents.

(j)

Under the laws of The Bahamas, the Mortgagee will not be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on any commercial activity in The Bahamas or subject to any tax of The Bahamas as a result of its entry into the Documents or the performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby. It is not necessary for the Mortgagee to be authorized or qualified to carry on business in The Bahamas or establish a place of business in The Bahamas for the entry into or performance of the Documents.

(k)

It is not necessary or advisable to take any further action in the future in order to preserve the security interests referred to above or the priority thereof in connection with the Norwegian Jade Mortgage.

7.	Pursuant to Section 5.12(g) and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and definitions set forth in such opinion, Holland & Knight, special Florida Counsel to the Credit Parties as follows (capitalized terms used in this Clause 7 have the meanings ascribed to them in such opinion):

To the extent that a security interest in the Collateral can be perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement in the State of Florida, perfection would occur by filing such financing statement with the office described in Annex 2 to the opinion. Note that, if the debtor purporting to grant such security interest changes the location of its chief executive office to another location, the effectiveness of the Financing Statements will cease on the expiration of four months after such change or, if earlier, when perfection would have otherwise ceased, unless such security interest becomes perfected under the law of such other location prior to such expiration.
