Section 2. AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS AND LOANS

2.1 Commitments; Making of Loans and Letters of Credit; the Register; Note.

A. Commitments and Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in this Agreement and in the Loan Documents, each Lender severally agrees to make Loans to Borrower and to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower from time to time during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date, in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not exceeding its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the Commitments, to be used for the purposes identified in Section 5.12. The original amount of each Lender’s Commitment is set forth opposite its name on Schedule “1” annexed hereto, and the aggregate original amount of the Commitments is $30,000,000.00; provided that the individual Commitment of each Lender shall be adjusted to give effect to any assignments of the Commitments pursuant to subsection 9.1B; and provided, further that the amount of the Commitments shall be reduced from time to time by the amount of any reductions thereto made pursuant to subsection 2.4A(ii). Each Lender’s Commitment shall expire on the Termination Date, and all Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans and with respect to the Commitment of such Lender, shall be paid in full no later than the Termination Date. Subject to the provisions of Section 7, amounts borrowed under this subsection 2.1A may be repaid and re-borrowed to but excluding the Termination Date.

Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Loans and the Commitments shall be subject to the limitation that in no event shall the Principal Balance at any time exceed the total Commitments then in effect. All Loans shall be denominated and funded in Dollars.

B. Borrowing Mechanics.

Loans. Loans made on any Funding Date shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000.00 and integral multiples of $100,000.00. Whenever Borrower desires that Lenders make Loans, Borrower shall deliver to Agent a Notice of Borrowing, no later than 10:00 a.m.(Hawaii time) at least two Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, and at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Funding Date in the case of a Base Rate Loan. LIBOR Rate Loans may not be borrowed on the Effective Date unless the Borrower shall have entered into a Special Funding Procedures Letter Agreement with Agent and Lenders on or prior to the date that is two Business Days before the Effective Date. Loans may be continued as or converted into Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans in the manner provided in subsection 2.2D. In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Borrowing, Borrower may give Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed borrowing under this subsection 2.1B, provided, that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing to Agent on or before the applicable Funding Date.

(i) General Provisions Relating to Borrowing. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to Borrower for acting in accordance with this subsection 2.1B, or in accordance with instructions given pursuant to this subsection 2.1B, and upon funding of Loans by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement, Borrower shall have effected the Loans hereunder.

Borrower shall notify Agent prior to the funding of any Loan in the event that any of the matters to which Borrower is required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing is no longer true and correct as of the applicable Funding Date, and the acceptance by Borrower of the proceeds of any Loans shall constitute a re-certification by Borrower, as of the applicable Funding Date, as to the matters to which Borrower is required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.5B, 2.5C and 2.5G, a Notice of Borrowing for a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

C. Disbursement of Funds.

(i) Funding of Loans. All Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Promptly after receipt by Agent of a Notice of Borrowing, Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to Agent, in Dollars and same day funds, at the Agent’s Funding and Payment Office not later than 10:00 a.m., (Hawaii time) on the applicable Funding Date.

(ii) Disbursement of Loan Proceeds by Agent. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified in subsections 4.1 (in the case of Loans made on the Effective Date) and 4.2 (in the case of all Loans), Agent shall make the proceeds of such Loans available to Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (Hawaii time) on the applicable Funding Date by

causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars, equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by Agent from Lenders, to be credited to an account of Borrower at the Agent’s Funding and Payment Office or to be wired to such account with another financial institution as Borrower may specify in writing to Agent, as applicable.

(iii) Agent May Advance Funds; Failure of Lender to Fund Loan. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to a requested Funding Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent the Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Loan, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made or will make its Pro Rata Share of the requested Loan available to Agent on the requested Funding Date. The Agent may in its sole discretion and in reliance upon such assumption make available to Borrower on the Funding Date a corresponding amount. If a Lender does not make available to the Agent the full amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Loan required to be funded on the requested Funding Date, the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance such corresponding amount, and accrue interest thereon for Agent’s own account at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such principal amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such principal amount (together with accrued interest) is repaid by such Lender or Borrower, as provided below, to the Agent. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement requiring the pro rata repayment of amounts owing to Lenders hereunder, if Agent has made an advance in respect of another Lender’s Commitment in accordance with this subsection 2.1C(iii) and such Lender does not reimburse the amount of such advance with interest at the Federal Funds Rate immediately upon the Agent’s demand therefor, all payments in respect of principal received by Agent from Borrower shall be paid to Agent to reduce such amounts owing to Agent by such Lender until Agent has been reimbursed in full; provided that if the making of such advance by Agent causes the aggregate principal balance of Loans extended by Agent hereunder, in either its capacity as Agent or as a Lender, to exceed Agent’s Commitment as a Lender, Agent shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall, within two (2) days after such notice pay the principal amount of such excess to Agent with interest thereon at the applicable interest rate otherwise payable by Borrower hereunder.

(iv) Failure of Lender to Fund Letters of Credit. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date payment is required on a Letter of Credit issued under this Agreement, that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent the Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made or will make its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit available to Agent on the date the Letter of Credit is presented to Agent for payment. The Agent shall, in reliance upon such assumption, make payment on such Letter of Credit. If a Lender does not make available to the Agent the full amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit when payment is required from Agent as the issuing bank, the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance such corresponding amount and accrue interest thereon for Agent’s own account at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day from the date such principal amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such principal amount (together with accrued interest) is repaid by such Lender or Borrower, as provided below, to the Agent. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement requiring the pro rata repayment of amounts owing to Lenders hereunder, if Agent has made payment on a Letter of Credit in respect of another Lender’s Commitment in accordance with this subsection 2.1C(iv) and such Lender does not reimburse the amount of such payment with interest at the Federal Funds Rate immediately upon the Agent’s demand therefor, all principal payments made by Borrower to Agent shall be paid to Agent to reduce such amounts owing to Agent by such Lender until Agent has been reimbursed in full; provided that if the payment of a Letter of Credit by Agent causes the aggregate principal balance of Letters of Credit extended by Agent hereunder, in either its capacity as Agent or as a Lender, to exceed Agent’s Commitment as a Lender, Agent shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall, within two (2) days after such notice pay the principal amount of such excess to Agent with interest thereon at the applicable interest rate otherwise payable by Borrower hereunder.

(v) Several Obligations of Lenders. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a

default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of a Loan or Letter of Credit requested hereunder. The failure of any Lender to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan or Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to fulfill its Commitment to fund its Pro Rata Share as and when required under this Agreement, but no Lender shall be responsible for any such failure of any other Lender. The Borrower shall be entitled to exercise any rights and remedies it may have at law or in equity against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender under this Agreement.

(vi) Defaulting Lenders.

(a) In the event that, at any time (other than during a period when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) a Lender fails or refuses to fund its Pro Rata Share as required under this Agreement, such Lender, after two (2) Business Days from the date it failed to fund its Pro Rata Share, shall be deemed to be a “Defaulting Lender”. Until such time as a Defaulting Lender has funded its Pro Rata Share (which late funding shall not absolve such Defaulting Lender from any liability it may have), the Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote regarding or to approve any issue on which voting or approval is required or advisable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the amount of the Pro Rata Share of such Lender shall not be counted as outstanding for purposes of determining any matters or actions as to which such Lender would otherwise be entitled to vote or to direct the Agent to act on its behalf under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. In addition, Agent shall not transfer to any Defaulting Lender, any payments (including principal, interest, Unused Commitment Fee, Letter of Credit Fees and other fees) made by or for Borrower to Agent or otherwise received by Agent, for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to any sharing in such payments. All of such payments shall instead be payable to and retained by Agent and applied to repay principal, interest, fees and related obligations in respect of advances made by Agent under Section 2.1 C (iii) and (iv) above related to such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Agent shall hold and relend to Borrower the amount of any such payments paid to or retained by Agent.

(b) Without prejudice to the survival of any other remedies against a Defaulting Lender, if a Defaulting Lender fails to make available to the Agent the full amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Loan or Letter of Credit required to be made hereunder within five (5) Business Days after the date on which such Defaulting Lender was required to fund, the Borrower or the Agent may require that such Lender transfer, and if so required, the Defaulting Lender shall transfer, all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to Agent or to a Eligible Assignee identified by the Borrower or by the Agent (with the consent of the Borrower), subject to the following:

(i) such proposed Eligible Assignee shall agree to assume all of the obligations of the transferor Lender under the Loan Documents, for consideration equal to the outstanding principal of such transferor Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Loans or Letters of Credit, together with interest thereon to the date of such transfer;

(ii) satisfactory arrangements shall be made for payment to such transferor Lender of all other amounts payable hereunder, provided that, in the event that any transfer is made pursuant to this subparagraph 2.1C(vi), the Agent shall be entitled to an amount equal to $3,000.00 payable by the transferor Lender, which shall be deducted from the consideration payable to the transferor Lender by the Eligible Assignee and shall be paid by the Eligible Assignee to Agent; and

(iii) the transferor Lender agrees to pay the Eligible Assignee the Eligible Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of fees which the transferor Lender has received related to this Agreement, pro rated through the date of transfer. This Pro Rata Share of the fees may be deducted from the consideration payable to the transferor Lender by the Eligible Assignee.

(iv) Other than as expressly set forth herein, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Agent or any other Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder.

(c) In the event a Defaulting Lender cures to the satisfaction of Agent and to the reasonable satisfaction of Borrower all outstanding breaches which caused such Lender to become a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender and shall be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.

D. The Register.

(i) Agent shall maintain, at its address referred to in subsection 9.8, a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitment and Loans of each Lender, from time to time (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(ii) Agent shall record in the Register each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest or demonstrable error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower’s Obligations in respect of the applicable Loans.

(iii) Each Lender shall record on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and such Lender, absent manifest or demonstrable error; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect Borrower’s Obligations in respect of the applicable Loans; and provided, further that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(iv) Borrower, Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in either case, unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in subsection 9.1B(ii). Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the Commitment or Loan.

(v) Borrower hereby designates Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this subsection 2.1D, and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Agent serves in such capacity, Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute Indemnitees for all purposes under subsection 9.3. This subsection 2D shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

E. Reserved.

F. Letters of Credit; and Letter of Credit Fee.

(i) An application for each desired Letter of Credit under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower to the Lender on an Application and Agreement for Standby Letter of Credit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “4” and made a part hereof, or an Application and Agreement for Commercial Letter of Credit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “5” and made a part hereof, delivered to the Lender no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date the Letter of Credit is desired; provided, that in the event any provision of either such Application is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement, or the applicable Loan Document (as the case may be) shall control. The expiry date of any Letter of Credit shall be no later than one (1) year after the Termination Date; provided, however, that if the expiry date for any Letter of Credit is a date after the Termination Date, the Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date, deposit with the Lender cash or cash equivalents to fully secure the repayment of any such Letter of Credit upon negotiation thereof. The minimum amount of any Letter of Credit shall be $100,000.00. The aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at any one time under the Revolving Commitment may not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), and the amount of the Revolving Commitment available to the Borrower for Loans shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at any one time. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fee payable by the Borrower as described in Section 2.1 F(ii) below, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, for the Lender’s own account, the Lender’s standard issuance, drawing, amendment and negotiation fees. Upon the negotiation of any Letter of Credit and the payment by the Lender of the amount drawn thereunder, the amount so drawn shall become and be deemed part of the Principal Balance, unless and until such amount is reimbursed by Borrower. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, the full amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall become and be part of the Principal Balance, as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement. The Letters of Credit shall be issued for general corporate purposes, consistent with the Borrower’s business operations, and for such other purposes as the Lender may approve.

(ii) The Letter of Credit Fee for each Letter of Credit issued by the Lender for the account of the Borrower hereunder shall be calculated based on the Applicable LIBOR Margin set forth in the Interest Rate Matrix; provided, however, that if the Borrower chooses to fully collateralize a Letter of Credit by depositing with the Lender, upon the issuance thereof, cash in the amount of 100% of the notional amount of such Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Fee for such fully collateralized Letter of Credit shall be one and one-half percent (1.50%) of the notional amount of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, quarterly in arrears, on the 90th, 180th, 270th and 360th days after issuance of each outstanding Letter of Credit, one-fourth of the Letter of Credit Fee for such Letter of Credit.

2.2 Interest on the Loans.

A. Rate of Interest.

(i) Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate. The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on Loans shall be selected by Borrower at the time Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to subsection 2.1B of this Agreement, or a Notice of Conversion is given pursuant subsection 2.2D. If on any date a Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest, then that Loan shall continue to bear interest on the same basis for determining the rate of interest that was in effect during the prior period for that particular Loan; provided that if such period would extend beyond the Termination Date, such Loan shall nevertheless mature on the Termination Date, and shall also be subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5D.

(ii) Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E and 3.1, Loans shall bear interest as follows:

(a) Whenever the Borrower selects or is deemed to have selected a Base Rate Loan, interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Base Rate, plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin. The Applicable Base Rate Margin shall be calculated by Agent in reference to the Consolidated Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio in effect on the Interest Rate Determination Date; provided however that during any Interest Period, the Applicable Base Rate Margin shall be adjusted to reflect the Consolidated Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio last reported by Borrower, and such adjustment shall be effective on the first Business Day following delivery of such report.

(b) Whenever the Borrower selects a LIBOR Rate Loan, interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, for the Interest Period selected by Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion, at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, plus the Applicable LIBOR Rate Margin. The Applicable LIBOR Rate Margin shall be calculated by Agent in reference to the Consolidated Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio in effect on the Interest Rate Determination Date; provided however that during any Interest Period, the Applicable LIBOR Rate Margin shall be adjusted to reflect the Consolidated Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio last reported by Borrower, and such adjustment shall be effective on the first Business Day following delivery of such report.

B. Interest Periods. In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrower may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be, at Borrower’s option, either a one, two, three or six month period; provided that:

(i) the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan shall commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially made as a LIBOR Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion, in the case of a Loan converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan;

(ii) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to a LIBOR Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of Conversion, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(iii) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that 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 next preceding Business Day;

(iv) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to clause (v) of this subsection 2.2B, end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(v) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Loans shall extend beyond the Termination Date;

(vi) there shall be no more than four (4) LIBOR Interest Periods outstanding at any time; and

(vii) in the event Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan in a Notice of Borrowing, or if Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan in a Notice of Conversion, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month therefor; and if Borrower fails to deliver a Notice of Conversion for a LIBOR Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of the same duration as the prior Interest Period; provided that if such Interest Period would extend beyond the Termination Date, such LIBOR Rate Loan shall nevertheless mature on the Termination Date, and shall also be subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5D.

C. Interest Payments; Payment Currency. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2E, interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on and to each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Loan, (ii) upon any prepayment of that Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and (iii) at maturity (including final maturity). Interest in respect of all Loans shall accrue and be paid in Dollars.

D. Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5, Borrower shall have the option to continue or to convert any or all outstanding Loans from one type of Loan to another type of Loan; provided (a) conversions of LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans shall be subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5D; and (b) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. A Base Rate Loan shall continue as a Base Rate Loan until converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or until such Loan is paid in full or matures. A LIBOR Rate Loan shall continue as a LIBOR Rate Loan until converted to a Base Rate Loan, or until such Loan is paid in full or matures. If Borrower wishes to convert a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or to change the Interest Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan as of the end of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion to Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (Hawaii time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion date. A Notice of Conversion shall specify (i) the date of

the proposed conversion (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount and type of the Loan to be converted, (iii) the nature of the proposed conversion, (iv) in the case of a conversion to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or a change in the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period, and (v) in the case of a conversion to a LIBOR Rate Loan, that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Conversion, Borrower may give Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion under this subsection 2.2D; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Conversion to Agent on or before the proposed conversion date.

Neither Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to Borrower for acting in accordance with this subsection 2.2D, or in accordance with instructions given pursuant to this subsection 2.2D, and upon conversion of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement, Borrower shall have effected a conversion hereunder.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.5B, 2.5C and 2.5G, a Notice of Conversion for conversion to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion in accordance therewith unless Borrower pays to Lenders such amounts as may be due under subsection 2.5D for failure of a conversion to any LIBOR Rate Loan to occur on the date specified therefor in the Notice of Conversion.

E. Post-Maturity Interest. Any payments of principal or interest on any Loan not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Insolvency Laws) payable on demand at a rate which is equal to 6.00% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Loans (the “Default Rate”); provided that, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective, such LIBOR Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this subsection 2.2E is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender.

F. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Loans shall be computed (but not compounded) on the basis of and a year of 360-day year. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

2.3 Commissions and Fees.

A. Upfront Fee. Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders on or before the Effective Date, the Upfront Fee, which shall be shared by the initial Lenders under this Agreement in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.

B. Agent’s Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for its own account, and not for distribution to any Lender, an annual Agent’s Fee in an amount agreed upon between Borrower and Agent in a separate Agreement Re. Agent’s Fee.

C. Unused Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for distribution to the Lenders based on their respective Pro-Rata Shares, the Unused Commitment Fee, payable quarterly, in arrears, on the last day of each quarter and on the Termination Date.

E. Breakage Fee. Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender from time to time and at any time, on demand, a fee (each called a “Breakage Fee”) equal to the Breakage Losses relating to an event described in Section 2.5D below.

2.4 Prepayments and Reductions in Commitments; General Provisions Regarding Payments.

A. Prepayments and Reductions in Commitments.

(i) Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may, upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and two Business Days’ prior written notice, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case given to Agent by 10:00 a.m. (Hawaii time) on the date required and (which written notice Agent will promptly transmit by facsimile transmission to each Lender), at any time and from time to time prepay any Loan on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000.00 and integral multiples of $100,000.00 in excess of that amount, provided, however, that a LIBOR Rate Loan may only be prepaid prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto upon Borrower’s payment of any Breakage Fee that may, as a result of such prepayment, be due and payable to Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.5D, and, provided further that Borrower shall not have the right to make a partial prepayment of any Borrowing consisting of LIBOR Rate Loans if the principal amount of such LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding, after giving effect to such partial prepayment, shall be less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) in the aggregate for each type of Loan. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in subsection 2.4A(iv).

(ii) Voluntary Reductions of Commitments. Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice confirmed in writing to Agent (which written notice Agent will promptly transmit by facsimile transmission to each Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Commitments, in an amount up to the amount by which the Commitments exceed the Principal Balance, at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000.00 and integral multiples of $100,000.00 in excess of that amount. Borrower’s notice to Agent shall

designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share.

(iii) Application of Prepayments to Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans. Unless otherwise specified by Borrower in writing, any prepayment by Borrower of Loans hereunder shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof and second to LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to subsection 2.5D; provided, however, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such prepayment may be applied in any manner as Agent may determine.

(iv) Reductions of Commitments to Remove a Lender. In the event Borrower is entitled to replace a non-consenting Lender pursuant to subsection 9.6B, Borrower shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent (which notice Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), to terminate the entire Commitment of such Lender, so long as all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender are repaid (including, without limitation, amounts owing to such Lender pursuant to subsection 2.5D), concurrently with the effectiveness of such termination (at which time Schedule“1” shall be deemed modified to reflect the changed Commitments) and at such time, such Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement, except with respect to indemnifications under this Agreement (including, without limitation, subsections 2.5D, 9.2 and 9.3), which shall survive as to such Lender.

B. General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(i) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations hereunder and under the Note issued by Borrower shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, set off or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (Hawaii time) on the due date at the Agent’s Funding and Payment Office. Funds received by Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day. Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to charge its accounts with Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose). Agent shall give Borrower notice of any such charge as soon as practicable, whether before or after making such charge.

(ii) Application of Payments to Principal and Interest. All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to principal.

(iii) Apportionment of Payments. Except as set forth herein, aggregate principal and interest payments shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares of such Loans. Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender, at its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate signature page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request, its Pro Rata Share of all payments received by Agent in respect of Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.4B(iii), if, pursuant to the provisions of subsection 2.5C, any Notice of Conversion is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Rate Loans, Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(iv) Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

(v) Notation of Payment. Each Lender agrees that before disposing of any Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting participations therein), that Lender will make a notation thereon of all Loans evidenced by that Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or any error in the making of) a notation of any Loan made under such Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under such Note with respect to any Loan or any payments of principal or interest on such Note.

2.5 Special Provisions Governing LIBOR Rate Loans.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans as to the matters covered:

A. Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (Hawaii time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest or demonstrable error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by facsimile transmission) to Borrower and the Lenders.

B. Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date, that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate, Agent shall on such date give notice (by facsimile transmission or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Rate Loans, until such time as Agent notifies Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

C. Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Borrower and Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) has become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of

this Agreement which materially and adversely affect the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by facsimile transmission) to Borrower and Agent of such determination (which notice Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).

Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended until such notice is withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan bearing interest at the applicable Base Rate, (c) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans, bearing interest at the applicable Base Rate, on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5D, to rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion as to all Lenders by giving notice (by facsimile transmission) to Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this subsection 2.5C shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

D. Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by that Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any interest paid by that Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by that Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) which that Lender may sustain: (i) if the payment of any principal of any Loan occurs on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) if, as a result of a default by Borrower, a borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion or a telephonic request for conversion, (iii) if any prepayment or conversion of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iv) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans is not made on the date specified therefor in a notice of prepayment. All such losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Lender, resulting from or relating to an occurrence of any one of the events set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) inclusive, plus a “service charge” of $250.00, are collectively called “Breakage Losses”. A certificate as to any Breakage Losses incurred by the Lender under this Section 2.5D submitted to Borrower by the Lender shall show the amount of the Breakage Losses and the calculations and reasonable back-up details used to determine such amount and shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

E. Booking of LIBOR Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

F. Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection 2.5 and under subsection 3.1A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate, in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to an office of that Lender in the United States of America, as applicable; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this subsection 2.5 and under subsection 3.1A.

G. LIBOR Rate Loans After Default. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a LIBOR Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.5D, any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by Borrower with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

Section 3. INCREASED COSTS, TAXES, CAPITAL ADEQUACY, AND MITIGATION.

3.1 Increased Costs; Taxes; Capital Adequacy.

A. Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of subsection 3.1B, in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective or is adopted after the date hereof, or compliance by any Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority whether or not having the force of law):

(i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Excluded Tax) with respect to, or changes the basis of taxation applicable to (except for changes in the rate of any Excluded Tax), this Agreement or any of its obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, its obligation to make Loans) or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees, or any other amount payable hereunder;

(ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender; or

(iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder, its Loans, or the interbank. Eurodollar market; and the result of any of the foregoing is (1) to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder, or (2) to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect to its Loans; then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder; provided that such Lender shall not be entitled to avail itself of the benefits of this subsection 3.1A to the extent that any such increased cost or reduction was incurred more than six months prior to the time it gives notice to Borrower, unless such circumstances arose or became applicable retrospectively, in which case no time limit shall apply (provided such Lender has notified Borrower within six months from the date such circumstance arose or became applicable). Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this subsection 3.1A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest or demonstrable error. Upon receipt of such statement, Borrower shall have the right to terminate and replace such Lender, as provided in subsection 3.3 of this Agreement.

B. Withholding of Taxes.

(i) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be paid free and clear of and (except to the extent required by law) without any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax (other than any Excluded Taxes) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of Borrower.

(ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If Borrower is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax (other than Excluded Taxes) from any sum paid or payable by Borrower to Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(a) Borrower shall notify Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as Borrower becomes aware of it;

(b) Borrower shall pay any such Tax and such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on Borrower) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Agent or any Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Agent or such Lender, as the case may be;

(c) the sum payable by Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and

(d) within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, Borrower shall deliver to Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

In the event Borrower is required to pay any amount under clause (b) or (c) above, Borrower may do so under protest and may contest the imposition or amount of any Tax giving rise to such payment, and each Lender agrees, at Borrower’s cost and expense, to cooperate with and assist Borrower in any proceeding related to any such contest.

(iii) Evidence of Exemption from Withholding Tax.

(a) Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to Agent for transmission to Borrower, on or prior to the Effective Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (1) two original completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (2) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, (3) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-US Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or (4) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. In addition, if a payment made to a Lender hereunder would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to Agent and Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent any documentation reasonably requested by the Agent and Borrower sufficient for Agent and Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements of FATCA so that payments made to such Lender hereunder would not be subject to U.S. federal withholding taxes under FATCA, or, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Lender (a “US Lender”), on or prior to the date on which such US Lender becomes a US Lender hereunder shall deliver to Borrower and Agent, such form or forms, certificates or documentation, including two original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, as reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent to confirm or establish that such US Lender is not subject to deduction, withholding, or backup withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such US Lender. .

(b) Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to subsection 3.1B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender shall (1) deliver to Agent for transmission to Borrower two original copies of any forms, certificate, or other evidence listed in subsection 3.1B(iii)(a), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm, or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents or (2) immediately notify Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(c) If the Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender in the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

C. Capital Adequacy Adjustment. If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the date hereof of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy (excluding those published as of the Effective Date but scheduled to take effect thereafter), or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any governmental or regulatory guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the investments of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Commitment or such Lender’s Loans, to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 Business Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation for such reduction; provided, that no Lender shall be entitled to avail itself of the benefit of this subsection 3.1C to the extent that any such reduction in return was incurred more than six months prior to the time it first makes a demand therefor, unless the circumstance giving rise to such reduced return arose or became applicable retrospectively, in which case no time limit shall apply (provided that such Lender has notified Borrower within six months from

the date such circumstances arose or became applicable). Such Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this subsection 3.1C, will give prompt written notice thereof to Borrower and Agent, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest or demonstrable error.

3.2 Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate.

Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering the Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under subsection 3.1 above, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or maintain the Commitment or the Affected Loans of such Lender through another lending office of such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to subsection 3.1 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitment or Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending office pursuant to this subsection 3.2 unless Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other lending office as described in clause (i) above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this subsection 3.2 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest or demonstrable error.

3.3 Replacement of Lenders.

In the event (i) Borrower is required under the provisions of subsection 2.5C or 3.1 to make payments to any Lender, or (ii) any Lender refuses to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement which has been approved by the Requisite Lenders as provided in the first sentence of subsection 9.6A, Borrower may, within 120 days after the date of any notice or demand requiring such payment under subsection 2.5C or 3.1 is given and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, elect to terminate such Lender as a party (or parties) to this Agreement; provided that, the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and concurrently with such termination, (x) Borrower shall pay that Lender, without duplication, all principal, interest and fees and other amounts (including, without limitation, amounts, if any, owed under subsections 3.1 or 2.5D) owed to such Lender through such date of termination, (y) another Lender or Eligible Assignee shall agree, as of such date, to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement (whether by assignment or amendment, if necessary) and to assume all obligations of the Lender to be terminated as of such date and (z) all documents and supporting materials necessary, in the judgment of Agent to evidence the substitution of such Lender, shall have been received and approved by Agent as of such date.

8. AGENT

8.1 Appointment.

First Hawaiian Bank is hereby appointed Agent for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to act as its agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and Borrower shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower, or any of its Subsidiaries, any Guarantor or any Loan Party.

8.2 Powers; General Immunity.

A. Duties Specified. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such actions on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified for Agent in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and it may perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

B. No Responsibility for Certain Matters. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein, or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished by Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the actions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition or business affairs of Borrower, either Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person liable for the payment or performance of any Obligations, nor shall Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions (other than those set forth in subsection 4.1), provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents, or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans, or the existence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default.

C. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither Agent nor its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by Agent’s gross negligence or

willful misconduct. If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or action (including the failure to take an action) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by Agent, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Borrower), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable. Agent shall be entitled to refrain from exercising any power, discretion or authority vested in it under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents unless and until it has obtained the instructions of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable.

D. Agent Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment and Loans, Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity. Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower and Borrower’s Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

8.3 Representations and Warranties; No Responsibility For Appraisal of Credit-worthiness.

Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower, Guarantors, and the Loan Parties in connection with the making of the Loans hereunder, and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower, Guarantors and the Loan Parties. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter (except such information as is, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, required to be circulated by Agent to Lenders), and Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

8.4 Right to Indemnity.

Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify Agent, to the extent that Agent shall not have been reimbursed by Borrower, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against Agent, in

performing its duties hereunder or the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as Agent, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as the case may be; provided that no Lender shall be liable to Agent for any portion of such liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose should, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

8.5 Successor Agent.

Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such notice of resignation, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, on five Business Days’ notice to Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent; provided that if such successor shall not be American Savings Bank, F.S.B., such appointment shall be subject to Borrower’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that if Requisite Lenders have not acted to appoint a successor Agent within 30 days after any such notice of resignation, then American Savings Bank, F.S.B. shall be appointed as such successor. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

Section 9. MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Assignments and Participations in Loans.

A. General. Subject to the provisions of this subsection 9.1, each Lender shall have the right at any time to (i) sell, assign or transfer to any Eligible Assignee, or (ii) sell participations to any Person in, all or any part of its Commitment or any Loan or Loans made by it or any other interest herein or in any other Obligations owed to it; provided, that no such sale, assignment or transfer described in clause (i) above shall be effective unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting such assignment or transfer shall have been accepted by Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in subsection 9.1B (ii); and provided, further, that no such sale, assignment, or transfer, or any participation therein, may be made separately from a sale, assignment, or transfer of a corresponding interest in the Commitment of the Lender effecting such sale, assignment, or transfer. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 9.1, no Lender shall, as between Borrower and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment or transfer of, or any granting of participations in, all or any part of its Commitments or Loans, or the other Obligations owed to such Lender.

B. Assignments.

(i) Amounts and Terms of Assignments. Each Commitment, Loan, or other Obligation may (a) be assigned in any amount to another Lender, with the giving of notice to Borrower and Agent; or (b) be assigned to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or an Affiliate of another Lender, or be assigned to another Eligible Assignee, in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000.00 (or such lesser amount as shall constitute the aggregate Commitment,

Loans, and other Obligations of the assigning Lender), upon notice to and with the consent of Borrower and Agent (which consent of Borrower may be withheld in Borrower’s sole discretion); provided that any such assignment in accordance with either clause (a) or (b) above shall effect an assignment of a proportionate share of the Commitment of the assigning Lender and all corresponding Loans of the assigning Lender; and provided further that (x) no assignment of less than all of any Lender’s total Commitment, and all related Loans and other Obligations, shall result in the assigning Lender having a Commitment of less than $5,000,000, and (y) no assignment shall result in additional costs being payable by Borrower under subsection 2.5 or 3.1, as of the date of such assignment. To the extent of any such assignment in accordance with the preceding clause (a) or (b) of this subsection 9.1B, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations with respect to its Commitments, Loans, and other Obligations of the portion thereof so assigned.

The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,000.00 payable by the assignor or the assignee (provided, however, that the Borrower shall pay for such processing and recordation fee in connection with the assignment of a portion of the Commitment to American Savings Bank, a federal savings bank), and in each case with such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Agent pursuant to subsection 3.1B(iii)(a). Upon such execution, delivery, and acceptance and recordation, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment Agreement, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto); provided no assignment hereunder shall impair any rights the assigning Lender may have under subsections 2.5D, 9.2 or 9.3 with respect to matters arising prior to such assignment. The Commitments hereunder shall be modified to reflect the Commitment(s) of such assignee and any remaining Commitments of such assigning Lender, and new Notes shall, if requested by the assignee, be issued to the assignee, substantially in the form of Exhibit “A” annexed hereto, with appropriate insertions.

(ii) Acceptance by Agent; Recordation in Register. Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or an Eligible Assignee, together with (x) the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection 9.1B(i), and (y) any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters that such assignee may be required to deliver to Agent pursuant to subsection 3.1B(iii)(a), Agent shall, if such Assignment Agreement has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit “5” hereto, and if Agent and Borrower have consented to the assignment evidenced thereby (in each case to the extent such consent is required pursuant to subsection 9.1B(i)), (a) accept such Assignment Agreement by executing a counterpart thereof as provided therein (which acceptance shall evidence any required consent of Agent to such assignment), (b) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (c) give prompt notice thereof to Borrower. Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it as provided in this subsection 9.1B(ii).

C. Participations. Upon notice to Agent and Borrower, any Lender may sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons (other than a Designated Entity, Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower) (hereinafter referred to as a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment and the Loans made or to be made by such Lender pursuant to its Commitment, and the Obligations of that Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided, however, that Borrower shall have no additional expense as a result of such participation, and provided, further, that (i) the selling Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the selling Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the selling Lender in connection with the selling Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except as set forth in the last sentence of this subsection 9.1C. In the case of any participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of subsections 3.1 and 9.3 as though it were also a Lender hereunder, and not have any other rights under this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, and all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such selling Lender had not sold such participation. The holder of any participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly affecting (i) the extension of the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan allocated to such participation or (ii) a reduction of the principal amount of or the rate of interest payable on any Loan allocated to such participation, or (iii) a reduction in the amount or calculation of the Unused Commitment Fee payable by Borrower hereunder, or (iv) the release of any Guarantor, or the release or subordination of any security given for repayment of the Loans. Each Lender that sells a participation to a participant pursuant to this subsection 9.1C shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. This Section 9.1C shall be construed so that the participations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

D. Assignments to Federal Reserve Banks. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this subsection 9.1, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans, its Note, and the other Obligations owed to such Lender, to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided that (i) no Lender shall, as between Borrower and such Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge and (ii) in no event shall such Federal Reserve Bank be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

E. Information. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower, Guarantors and the Loan Parties in the possession of that Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject to subsection 9.19.

9.2 Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay promptly (i) all the actual and reasonable documented costs and expenses of preparation of the Loan Documents; (ii) all the reasonable documented costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions requested by Lenders as to any legal matters arising hereunder) and of Borrower’s performance of and compliance with all agreements and conditions to be performed or complied with under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iii) the reasonable documented fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Loan Documents and the Loans, and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications hereto or thereto, and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iv) all other actual and reasonable documented costs and expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; and (v) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all reasonable documented costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement, incurred by Agent or any Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by reason of such Event of Default or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings.

9.3 Indemnity.

In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 9.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless Agent and each Lender, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates of Agent and each Lender (collectively called the “lndemnitees”) from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto), whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including without limitation securities and commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations), on common law or equitable case or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including without limitation Lenders’ agreement to make the Loans hereunder or the use or intended use of the proceeds of any of the Loans) or the statements contained in any commitment letter delivered by Agent or any Lender to Borrower with respect thereto (collectively called the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertaking to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.

9.4 Set-Off.

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to that Lender under this Agreement, and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) that Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder or any other Loan Document shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 8 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured; provided, however, that a Lender shall not exercise a right of set off against deposits held by such Lender if the exercise of such right would cause a default under another loan or obligation owed by Borrower, Guarantor or any Loan Party to such Lender.

9.5 Ratable Sharing.

Except as provided otherwise hereunder, Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under applicable Insolvency Laws, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees or other amounts then due and owing to that Lender from Borrower hereunder or under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due From Borrower” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due From Borrower due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due From Borrower then due to the other Lenders, so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due From Borrower shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due From Borrower then due to them (as calculated prior to such recovery); provided, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

9.6 Amendments and Waivers: Replacement of Lenders.

A. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the Notes, or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders and the Borrower; provided that any such amendment, termination, waiver or consent which (i) increases the amount of any of Commitments or reduces the principal amount of any of the Loans; (ii) changes any Lender’s Pro Rata Share; (iii) changes in any manner the definition of “Requisite Lenders”; (iv) changes in any manner any provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all Lenders; (v) postpones the scheduled final maturity date of any of the Loans; (vi) postpones the date on which any interest or any fees are payable; (vii) decreases the interest rate borne by any of the Loans or the amount of the Unused Commitment Fee payable hereunder; (viii) increases the maximum duration of Interest Periods permitted hereunder; (ix) reduces the amount or postpones the due date of any amount payable hereunder, or extends the required expiration date beyond the Termination Date; or (x) any reduction in or release of any Collateral or Guarantor; or (xi) changes in any manner the provisions contained in subsection 8.1 or this subsection 9.6, shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing by or on behalf of all Lenders with Obligations directly affected thereby. In addition: (i) any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the statements contained in Section 5 shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing by Agent and Requisite Lenders, (ii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which is the holder of that Note, and (iii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Section 8 or of any other provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of Agent shall be effective without the written concurrence of Agent. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this subsection 9.6 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by Borrower, on Borrower.

B. Replacement of Lenders. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver to any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Note as contemplated by clauses (i) through (x) of the proviso of the first sentence in subsection 9.6A, the consent of one or more other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then Borrower shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (i) or (ii) below, to either (i) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver, or (ii) terminate such non-consenting Lender’s Commitment, repay in full its outstanding Loans, and all other amounts due hereunder in accordance with subsection 2.4A(iv) without regard to any provisions herein requiring pro rata repayment of Obligations; provided that unless the Commitments that are terminated and the Loans that are repaid pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to the preceding clause (ii), the Requisite Lenders (determined before giving effect to the proposed action) must specifically consent thereto.

9.7 Independence of Covenants.

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

9.8 Notices.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally served, faxed, telexed or sent by telecopy or United States mail courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person by courier service, upon receipt of facsimile, telecopy or telex, or three Business Days after it has been deposited in the United States mail with postage prepaid; provided that notices to Agent shall not be effective until received. For the purposes hereof, the address of each party hereto shall be as set forth under such party’s name on the signature pages hereof or (i) as to Borrower or Agent, such other address as shall be designated by any such Person in a written notice delivered to the other parties hereto and (ii) as to each Lender, such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice delivered to Agent.

9.9 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

A. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder.

B. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of Borrower set forth in subsections 2.5D, 3.1, 9.2 and 9.3 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in subsections 8.2C, 8.4 and 9.5 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

9.10 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No failure or delay on the part of Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

9.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any Guarantor or Loan Party, or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Agent or any Lender (or to Agent for the benefit of any Lender), or Agent or any Lender enforces any security interests or exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable case, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all liens, security interests, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

9.12 Severability.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement, the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.13 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights and Borrower’s Obligations.

AGREEMENT GOVERNING STANDBY LETTER OF CREDIT
(Includes Reimbursement Agreement)

First Hawaiian Bank (the “Bank”) and the applicant(s) (the “Applicant”) for Standby Letter of Credit (herein called the “Credit”) as set forth on the reverse hereof agree as follows:

1. Reimbursement Agreement. As to drafts or other requests for payment drawn under or purporting to be drawn under the Credit, or pursuant to judgment or court order, the Applicant will reimburse, or pay in advance to Bank in U.S. currency at Bank’s election and on demand, the amount paid on or required to pay each sight draft payable in U.S. currency, and as to such drafts payable in other than U.S. currency, to reimburse Bank, on demand, the equivalent of the amount paid (plus cable or wire charges) in U.S. currency at the current rate of exchange in Hawaii for cable or wire transfers, to the place of payment in the currency in which such draft is drawn.

2. Fees and Charges. The Applicant will pay Bank on demand a commission on all Credit used at the rate agreed upon or as specified by Bank, and all charges and expenses incurred by Bank and interest when chargeable in accordance with the Application, other agreement between the parties or as customarily imposed by the Bank in connection with similar Letters of Credit. Fees and charges not paid within ten days of demand shall bear interest at the Advance Rate described on the reverse side and may be charged to the Selected Account described on the reverse side or any other deposit account of the Applicant with the Bank.

3. Security, Selected Account. As security for the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Applicant to Bank, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the Applicant hereby: (a) grants a security interest to Bank and gives Bank a general lien upon and right of set-off against all right, title, and interest of the Applicant in and to the Selected Account described on the reverse side and the balance of every deposit account now or at any time hereafter existing, of the Applicant with Bank, and any other claims of Applicant against Bank, and in and to all property, claims, and demands and rights and interests therein of the Applicant, and in and to all evidences thereof, which have been or at any time shall be delivered to or otherwise come into Bank’s possession, custody or control, or into the possession, custody or control of any of its agents or correspondents for any purpose, whether or not for the express purpose of being used by Bank as collateral security or for safekeeping or for any other or different purposes, it being understood that the receipt at any time by Bank, or any of its correspondents, of other security, of whatever nature, including cash, shall not be deemed a waiver of any of Bank’s rights or powers under this Agreement, (b) if any party shall have joined in the application for the Credit, assigns and transfers to Bank all right, title, and interest of the Applicant in and to all property and interests which the Applicant may now or hereafter obtain from such party as security for the obligations of such party arising in connection with the transaction to which the Credit relates; and (c) agrees at any time and from time to time, on demand, to deliver, convey transfer, or assign to Bank additional security of value and character satisfactory to Bank, or to make such payment as Bank may require.

4. Security Documents. Upon demand by Bank, Applicant will execute and deliver to Bank all documents concerning security to be given or granted Bank, all in form and content applicable to Bank and shall pay Bank all applicable filing fees therefor. The Bank is authorized, as its option to file, financing statements and continuation statements without the signature of the Applicant with respect to any property securing these obligations of Applicant and Applicant agrees to pay the cost of any such filing.

5. Payments. Until and except as the Applicant shall instruct Bank in writing to the contrary, Bank and its correspondents may, but shall have no obligation to, under the Credit, (a) receive and accept and pay drafts or other documents and instruments otherwise in order signed by, or issued to, the receiver, successor in interest, trustee in bankruptcy, personal representative, administrator, guardian or conservator of anyone named in the Credit as the person to whom drafts and other documents and instruments are to be drawn or issued; and (b) honor drafts for partial payments whether or not made in any designated amount or period of time, provided that the liability of the Applicant to reimburse Bank shall not exceed the amount of the Credit plus all applicable charges, expenses, and interest.

6. No Liability of Bank for Certain Matters. The users of the Credit shall be deemed agents of the Applicant. Neither Bank nor Bank’s correspondents shall have any liability or responsibility for the correctness, validity, genuineness, sufficiency, or falsification of any documents or instruments, or for any delay in giving or failure to give notice, or for failure of any person to comply with the terms of the Credit, or for errors, omissions, delays in or nondelivery of any message, however sent, or for any other error, neglect, or omission if done in good faith, and any action taken in good faith by Bank and Bank’s correspondents shall be binding on the Applicant.

7. Taxes and Tax Indemnity. Any and all payments made to Bank hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on net income and all income and franchise taxes of the United States and any political subdivisions thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If the Applicant shall be required by law to deduct any taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (a) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this section 7) Bank shall receive an amount equal to the sum Bank would have received had no such deductions been made; (b) the Applicant shall make such deductions; and (c) the Applicant shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. The Applicant will indemnify Bank for the full amount of Taxes, (including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this section 7), paid by Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date Bank makes written demand therefor. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Applicant will furnish to Bank the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

8. Default Remedies. Any property of the Applicant of whatever kind or character now or hereafter in Bank’s possession or under Bank’s control is security for the payment and performance of all of the Applicant’s indebtedness and obligations to Bank and may, without notice to the Applicant, be applied to the same by Bank, and Applicant will, upon demand, execute and deliver to Bank a security agreement in form satisfactory to Bank. Should the Applicant default in payment or performance of any of the terms hereof or of the Credit or any other agreements with Bank, or discontinue its present business, become incompetent or insolvent, die, institute any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or become the subject of any receivership or other proceedings under the bankruptcy laws, or give any materially false information to, or withhold any essential financial information from Bank, or should the property, goods, documents, and instruments referred to in section 3 of this Agreement be attached, seized, impounded, or become subject to any other legal process or order, then upon the happening of any such events, Bank without the necessity of any notice, demand, or protest to or upon the Applicant or any other person, may do any or all of the following: (a) declare all indebtedness owing from the Applicant to Bank immediately due and payable; (b) take possession of the property, goods, documents, and instruments or any part thereof, and do all such acts affecting the same as Bank may deem necessary to conserve the same and its security interest therein; (c) apply all property of the Applicant to the indebtedness; (d) set off and apply all deposits at any time held or other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Applicant against any amounts owing by the Applicant to Bank; (e) take possession of the property, goods, documents, and instruments, or any part thereof, with or without process of law, and sell and dispose of the same at public or private sale; and (f) exercise all rights under the Uniform Commercial Code, Chapter 490, Hawaii Revised Statutes (the “UCC”), or any other applicable law, including but not limited to those of a secured creditor under Article 9 of the UCC. To the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, reasonable notice shall include, but shall not be limited to, written notice to the Applicant at the address shown on the reverse hereof at least five business days prior to the date of sale. Bank may purchase at such sale free from any right of redemption, which the Applicant hereby waive(s) and release(s). Bank in conducting such sales may act through an agent, its attorney(s), or any of its officers. The Applicant will pay Bank all expenses of taking possession, storing, transporting, conditioning, sale and collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and Bank may deduct the same from the proceeds of any sale before crediting the balance, if any, to the indebtedness of the Applicant. Upon demand, the Applicant will pay to Bank any deficiency, and Bank will pay to the Applicant any surplus remaining after the application of the proceeds of the sale. The provisions of any separate agreement concerning security shall, if inconsistent herewith, control and govern Bank’s rights in respect thereby.

9. Cumulative Remedies, etc. (a) Each remedy of Bank herein provided is cumulative, not alternative and in addition to all other remedies provided by law, and no waiver by Bank of any term or condition hereof or breach hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other term, condition, or subsequent breach. (b) All payments, remittances, deliveries of documents and instruments, and notices to Bank shall be made and delivered (unless otherwise specified herein) to the office of Bank shown on the reverse hereof; and any notice to Applicant shall be deemed sufficient if delivered personally to Applicant or deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Applicant at the address shown on the reverse hereof. (c) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Bank’s successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, guardians, conservators, and trustees of the Applicant. (d) If the Applicant is more than one person, the liability of each Applicant shall be joint and several; and (e) Irrespective of the expiry date of Credit, Applicant shall remain liable hereunder until the Bank is released from liability by any person, firm, corporation or other entity, which is entitled to draw or demand payment under the Credit, and all amounts owed to the Bank hereunder have been irrevocably paid and satisfied in full.

10. Changes by Bank. Without releasing the Applicant from any liability hereunder and under the Credit, Bank may make such changes from the terms set forth herein as Bank, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, provided that no such changes shall vary the principal terms hereof (amount, and expiry); however, Bank may, at the Applicant’s request, which may be signified by signing or initialing such change(s), vary or modify principal terms as described herein. Further, Bank may surrender, from time to time, to the person designated by the Applicant (or their nominees) all or any part of any property, goods, documents, and instruments against payments by, or other documents or instruments satisfactory to Bank executed by such persons.

11. Regulatory Costs and Compliance. The Applicant will comply with all foreign and U.S. laws, rules and regulations (including exchange and control regulations) now or hereafter applicable to the transaction related to the Credit or applicable to the execution, delivery, and performance by the Applicant of this Agreement and will pay to Bank on demand, in U.S. currency, such amounts as Bank may expend on account of such laws, rules and regulations..

12. ISP and Hawaii Law Govern. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the International Standby Practices (ISP) as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce and in accordance with the laws of the State of Hawaii, U.S.A. The ISP shall govern in the event of any inconsistency.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a version of the UCP is incorporated in the attached letter of credit form, this Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce rather than the ISP governing in the event of any inconsistency.

13. Credit Extension. If Bank extends to Applicant (or any other party liable hereunder) a loan or other credit which in whole or in part is intended to (or does) satisfy the obligations of the Applicant hereunder (or of any other party liable hereunder), the rights of Bank hereunder shall continue until both full satisfaction of all obligations owed Bank hereunder as well as full satisfaction of all obligations owed Bank under any loan or other credit documents. Bank shall have all rights hereunder and under any such other documents, separately and cumulatively, until the occurrence of both events.

14. Beneficiaries. The Applicant hereby authorizes Bank to accept, honor, or pay (as applicable) against any draft or other document which on its face appears otherwise in order but which is signed, issued, or presented by any party or under the name of any party (a) purporting to act with authority (actual or apparent) on behalf of anyone named in the Credit: as the person to whom drafts and other documents and instruments are to be drawn or issued (herein called the “Beneficiary”), (b) purporting to claim through such Beneficiary, or (c) posing as such Beneficiary. The Applicant hereby agrees to reimburse Bank and any and all amounts which Bank may have to pay under the Credit by reason of any legal or factual insufficiency or infirmity in such party’s conduct or documents under clauses (a), (b), or (c) above.

15. Miscellaneous. This Credit may be amended, modified, or revoked only upon the receipt by the Bank from the Applicant of a written request therefor and then only upon such terms and conditions as the Bank may prescribe. Captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not limit the meaning of any section of this Agreement.

2. Applicant will pay Bank on demand a commission on all Credit used at the rate agreed upon or as specified by Bank, and all charges and expenses incurred by Bank and interest when chargeable.

3. As security for the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the applicant to the Bank, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the applicant hereby recognizes and admits Bank’s ownership in and unqualified rights to the possession and disposal of, and hereby grants Bank a security interest in (i) any and all documents of title, policies or certificates of insurance and other documents and instruments specified on the reverse hereof or accompanying or relative to drafts or acceptances drawn under the Credit, and any and all other property specified on the reverse hereof or shipped under or in connection with the Credit or in any way relative hereto (whether or not released to the applicant on trust or bailee receipt or otherwise), and (ii) any and all proceeds and products of the foregoing. In addition, as additional security, the Bank shall be subrogated to the rights of the applicant in respect of any transaction to which the Credit relates. Insofar as any property which may be held by or for the account of the Bank as collateral hereunder may be released to, or upon the order of the applicant, the applicant will sign and deliver to the Bank such form of security agreement covering such property as the Bank may require, it being understood that the Bank’s rights as specified therein shall be in furtherance of and in addition to (but not in limitation of) the Bank’s rights hereunder.

4. If the Bank requires additional collateral, the applicant will, on demand, assign and deliver to the Bank collateral of a type and value satisfactory to the Bank.

5. Upon demand by Bank, applicant will execute and deliver to Bank all necessary documents in form and content acceptable to Bank and pay Bank all applicable filing fees therefor.

Until and except as applicant shall instruct Bank in writing to the contrary, Bank and its correspondents may, under the Credit, (i) receive and accept as “bills of lading” any documents acknowledging receipt of goods or property for carriage issued or purportedly issued by or on behalf of any carrier, and the date of such documents shall be deemed to be the date of shipment of the goods or property therein specified; (ii) receive and accept as documents of insurance either insurance policies or certificates; (iii) receive, accept, and pay drafts or other documents and instruments (otherwise in order signed by, or issued to, the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, personal representative, administrator, guardian or conservator of anyone named in the Credit as the person to whom drafts and other documents and instruments are to be drawn or issued; and (iv) honor drafts for part or installment shipments whether or not made in any designated amount or period of time, or shipments in excess of the quantity specified in the Credit, provided that the liability of applicant to reimburse Bank shall not exceed the amount of the Credit plus all applicable charges, expenses, and interest.

7. The users of the Credit shall be deemed agents of applicant, and neither Bank nor Bank’s correspondents shall have any liability or responsibility for the correctness, validity, genuineness, sufficiency, or falsification of any documents or instruments, or for the existence, character, quantity, quality, condition, value, shipment, or delivery of documents or instruments, or of any property or goods represented thereby, or the existence, sufficiency, or breach of contracts of carriage or insurance, or the solvency of insurers or the payment of losses, or for any delay in giving or failure to give notice, or for failure of any person to comply with the terms of the Credit, or for errors, omissions, delays in or nondelivery of any message however sent, or for any other error, neglect, or omission if done in good faith, and any action taken in good faith by Bank and Bank’s correspondents shall be binding on applicant.

8. Any and all payments made to the Bank hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on net income and all income and franchise taxes of the United States and any political subdivisions thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If the applicant shall be required by law to deduct any taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this section 8) the Bank shall receive an amount equal to the sum the Bank would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) applicant shall make such deductions; and (iii) applicant shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Applicant will indemnify the Bank for the full amount of Taxes (including, withoutlimitation, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this section 8) paid by the Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date of demand therefor. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the applicant will furnish to the Bank the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

9. Applicant will, in connection with the property and goods under the Credit (i) procure all necessary import, export, and other licenses; (ii) comply with all applicable foreign and domestic law, rules, regulations and directives, and furnish such certificates with respect thereto as Bank may require; (iii) pay all freight, transportation, and storage charges; (iv) properly store or warehouse the same; (v) pay all duties, taxes, and assessments thereon before they become delinquent; (vi) assume all risk of loss, damage, or deterioration thereto and hold Bank harmless from any loss resulting therefrom; (vii) keep the same insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, transportation, and such other risks as Bank may determine in a company or companies and under policies or certificates of insurance chosen by applicant and acceptable to Bank, the proceeds of which are hereby assigned to Bank, and deliver such policies or certificates to Bank; and (viii) to indemnify and save Bank harmless from any expense incurred, including attorneys’ fees, and on demand pay to Bank all costs and expenses incurred by Bank in the enforcement of its rights or the collection of any sums hereunder.

10. Any property of applicant of whatever kind or character now or hereafter in Bank’s possession or under Bank’s control is security for the payment and performance of all applicant’s indebtedness and obligations to Bank and may without notice to applicant be applied to the same by Bank, and applicant will, upon demand, execute and deliver to Bank a general pledge agreement in Bank’s regular form. Should applicant default in payment of performance of any of the terms hereof or of the Credit or any other agreements with Bank, or discontinue its present business, become incompetent or insolvent, die, institute any proceeding seeking to adjudicate the applicant as bankrupt or insolvent, make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or become the subject of any receivership or other proceedings under the bankruptcy laws, or give any materially false information to, or withhold any essential financial information from Bank, or should the property, goods, documents, and instruments be attached, seized, impounded, or become subject to any other legal process or order, then upon the happening of any such events, Bank without the necessity of any notice, demand, or protest to or upon applicant or any other person, may do any or all of the following: (i) declare all indebtedness owing from applicant to Bank immediately due and payable; (ii) take possession of the property, goods, documents and instruments or any part thereof, and do all such acts affecting the same as Bank may deem necessary to conserve the same and its security interest therein; (iii) apply all property of applicant to said indebtedness; (iv) set off and apply all deposits at any time held or other indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank to or for the credit or the account of the applicant against any amounts owing by the applicant to the Bank; (v) take possession of the property, goods, documents and instruments, or any part thereof, with or without process of law, and sell and dispose of the same at public or private sale; and (vi) exercise all rights under the Uniform Commercial Code, Chapter 490, Hawaii Revised Statutes, or any other applicable law. To the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, reasonable notice shall include, but shall not be limited to, written notice to the applicant at its address shown on the reverse hereof, at least five business days prior to the date of sale. Bank may purchase at such sale free from any right of redemption, which applicant hereby waive(s) and release(s) Bank in conducting such sales may act through an agent, its attorney(s), or any of its officers. Applicant will pay Bank all expenses of taking possession, storing, transporting, conditioning, sale and collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and Bank may deduct the same from the proceeds of any sale before crediting the balance, if any, to the indebtedness of applicant. Upon demand, applicant will pay to Bank any deficiency, and Bank will pay to applicant any surplus remaining after the application of the proceeds of any sale.

11. a. Each remedy of Bank herein provided is cumulative, not alternative and in addition to all other remedies provided by law, and no waiver by Bank of any term or condition hereof or breach hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other term, condition, or subsequent breach.

b. All payments, remittances, deliveries of documents and instruments, and notices to Bank shall be made and delivered (unless otherwise specified herein) to the office of Bank shown on the reverse hereof, and any notice to applicant shall be deemed sufficient if delivered personally to applicant or deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to applicant at the address shown on the reverse hereof.

c. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Bank’s successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, guardians, conservators, and trustees of applicant.

d. If applicant is more than one person, the liability of each applicant shall be joint and several.

12. Without releasing applicant from any liability hereunder and under the Credit, Bank may make such changes from the terms set forth herein as Bank, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable, provided that no such changes shall vary the principal terms hereof (amount, expiry, merchandise); however, Bank may, at applicant’s request, which may be signified by signing or initialing such change(s), vary or modify principal terms as described herein. Further, Bank may surrender, from time to time to the person designated by applicant (or their nominees) all or any part of any property, goods, documents, and instruments.

13. Applicant will comply with all foreign and U.S. laws, rules, and regulations (including exchange and control regulations) now or hereafter applicable to the transaction related to the Credit or applicable to the execution, delivery, and performance by the applicant of this Agreement.

14. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “UCP”) and in accordance with the laws of the State of Hawaii, U.S.A. The UCP shall govern in the event of any inconsistency.
