39

full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to Borrower as provided above.

(c)Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBOR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  During the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as LIBOR Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders.

(e)After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten (10) Interest Periods in effect with respect to LIBOR Loans.

(vi)The Applicable L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Applicable Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by an Applicable L/C Issuer in connection with any Applicable Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and any Issuer Documents pertaining to such Applicable Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included the Applicable L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Applicable L/C Issuer.

(b)Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i)Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of Borrower delivered to the Applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower.  Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the L/C Issuer.  Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the Applicable L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or such later date and time as Administrative Agent and the Applicable L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be.  In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary

42

in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as the Applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably require.  In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Applicable L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Applicable L/C Issuer may require.  Additionally, Borrower shall furnish to the Applicable L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the Applicable L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent may require.

(ii)Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from Borrower and, if not, the Applicable L/C Issuer will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  Unless the Applicable L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Applicable L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Borrower (or Guarantor) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Applicable L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage multiplied by the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii)If Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Applicable L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve (12) month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve (12) month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the Applicable L/C Issuer, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Applicable L/C Issuer for any such extension.  Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the

43

Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Applicable L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Applicable L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clauses (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from Administrative Agent, any Lender or Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Applicable L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(iv)Reserved.

(v)Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(vi)If the expiry date of any Letter of Credit would occur after the Maturity Date (giving effect to any pending Extension Notice that has been delivered pursuant to Section 2.16 and for which the conditions precedent to the extension requested therein are then satisfied), Borrower hereby agrees that it will at least thirty (30) days prior to such Maturity Date (or, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued or extended on or after thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, on the date of such issuance or extension, as applicable) Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 103% of the L/C Obligations arising or expected to arise in connection with such Letter of Credit.

(c)Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i)Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Applicable L/C Issuer shall notify Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof (such notification provided by the Applicable L/C Issuer to Borrower and Administrative Agent being referred to herein as an “L/C Draw Notice”).  If an L/C Draw Notice with respect to a Letter of Credit is received by Borrower (x) on or prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the Applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit (each such date a payment is made by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit being referred to herein as, an “Honor Date”), then, not later than 12:00 p.m. on the Honor Date, Borrower shall reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer through Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing or (y) after 11:00 a.m. on the Honor Date, then, not later than 11:00 a.m.  on the first Business Day following the Honor Date, Borrower shall reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer through Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (such date on which Borrower, pursuant to clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence, is required to

44

reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer for a drawing under a Letter of Credit is referred to herein as the “L/C Reimbursement Date”); provided, however, that if the L/C Reimbursement Date for a drawing under a Letter of Credit is the Business Day following the Honor Date pursuant to clause (y) of this sentence, the Unreimbursed Amount shall accrue interest from and including the Honor Date until such time as the Applicable L/C Issuer is reimbursed in full therefor (whether through payment by Borrower and/or through a Loan or L/C Borrowing made in accordance with paragraph (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.03(c)) at a rate equal to (A) for the period from and including the Honor Date to but excluding the first Business Day to occur thereafter, the rate of interest then applicable to a Loan that is a Base Rate Loan and (B) thereafter, at the Default Rate applicable to a Loan that is a Base Rate Loan.  Interest accruing on the Unreimbursed Amount pursuant to the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence shall be payable by Borrower upon demand to Administrative Agent, solely for the account of the Applicable L/C Issuer.  If Borrower fails to so reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer by such time, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.  In such event, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Notice).  Any notice given by the Applicable L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii)Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral for this purpose) to Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable L/C Issuer at Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to Borrower in such amount.  Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Applicable L/C Issuer.

(iii)With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  In such event, each Lender’s payment to Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed

45

payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv)Until each Lender funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the Applicable L/C Issuer.

(v)Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Applicable L/C Issuer, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by Borrower of a Borrowing Notice).  No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse the Applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the Applicable L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi)If any Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of an Applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such Applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Applicable L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by such Applicable L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Applicable L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing.  If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be.  A certificate of such Applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)Repayment of Participations.

(i)At any time after an Applicable L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Applicable Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section

46

2.03(c), if Administrative Agent receives for the account of an Applicable L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by Administrative Agent.

(ii)If any payment received by Administrative Agent for the account of an Applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Applicable L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e)Obligations Absolute.  The obligation of Borrower to reimburse each Applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Applicable Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i)any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii)the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Applicable L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii)any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv)waiver by the Applicable L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for such Applicable L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of Borrower or any waiver by such Applicable L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice Borrower;

47

(v)honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(vi)any payment made by the Applicable L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;

(vii)any payment by the Applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(viii)any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower.

Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will promptly notify the Applicable L/C Issuer.  Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f)Role of L/C Issuer.  Each Lender and Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Applicable L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.  None of any L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.  Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.  None of any L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 2.03(e); provided,

48

however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower may have a claim against any Applicable L/C Issuer, and any Applicable L/C Issuer may be liable to Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by Borrower which Borrower proves were caused by the Applicable L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Applicable L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Applicable L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Applicable L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign an Applicable Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.  The Applicable L/C Issuer may send an Applicable Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(g)Applicability of ISP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Applicable L/C Issuer and Borrower when an Applicable Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Applicable Letter of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Applicable L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to Borrower for, and the Applicable L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Applicable L/C Issuer required under any Law that is required to be applied to any Letter of Credit, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the Applicable L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such Law or practice.

(h)Letter of Credit Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for calculation of Letter of Credit Fees multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(iii), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Applicable L/C Issuer for its own account.  For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06.  Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and

49

December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears.  If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(i)Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to the Applicable L/C Issuer.  Borrower shall pay directly to the Applicable L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Applicable Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Fee Letter, computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Applicable Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears.  Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Applicable Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand.  For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06.  In addition, Borrower shall pay directly to the Applicable L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the Applicable L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect.  Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(j)Conflict with Issuer Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(k)Letters of Credit Issued for the Account of Guarantor.  Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, Guarantor, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse each Applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under and L/C Borrowings relating to such Letter of Credit.  Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Guarantor inures to the benefit of Borrower, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of Guarantor.

2.04Prepayments.

(a)Optional Prepayment.  Borrower may, upon notice to Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans, in each case, or such later time as is reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent; and (ii) any prepayment of LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.

50

Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if LIBOR Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such LIBOR Loans.  Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage).  If such notice is given by Borrower, Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided, that such prepayment obligation may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event (including a Change of Control, asset sale or refinancing transaction).  Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.  Subject to Section 2.15, each such prepayment shall be promptly paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

(b)Mandatory Prepayment.

(i)Commitment Overadvance.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all L/C Obligations, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Commitments, Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days after demand pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the amount of such excess.

(ii)Borrowing Base Overadvance.  If, at any time, (A) the Total Outstandings exceed (B) the Borrowing Base then in effect, Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days after demand prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount not less than such excess; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.04(b)(ii) above unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect.

(c)Application of Mandatory Prepayments.  Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (b) shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans.  If Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 3.05.

2.05Termination or Reduction of Commitments.  Borrower may, upon notice to Administrative Agent, terminate the aggregate Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) or any whole multiple of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in excess thereof, and (iii) Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the aggregate Commitments, the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, or the Total Outstandings would exceed the lesser of

51

(A) the Facility Amount, or (B) the Borrowing Base then in effect.  Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the aggregate Commitments; provided, that such termination or reduction may be conditioned on the occurrence of any subsequent event (including a Change of Control, asset sale or refinancing transaction).  Any reduction of the aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage.  All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

2.06Repayment of Loans.  Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans on such date.

2.07Interest.

(a)Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans.

(b)(i)While any Event of Default arising under Section 8.01(a)(i), (f) or (g) exists, Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii)Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing (other than as set forth in clause (b)(i) above), Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii)Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c)Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein.  Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.08Fees.

(a)Extension Fee.  If the Maturity Date is extended in accordance with Section 2.16, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a fee (the “Extension Fee”) equal to 0.15% of each Lender’s Commitment being extended on the effective date of such extension.  Such Extension Fee shall be due and payable in full on, and subject to the occurrence of, the effective date of such extension.

52

(b)Unused Fee.  During the period from the Closing Date to and including the Maturity Date, Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders an unused facility fee (the “Unused Fee”), equal to the amount (the “Unused Amount”) by which the aggregate amount of the Commitments exceeds the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans and the L/C Obligations, multiplied by the applicable per annum rate set forth in the table below:

Unused Amount	Unused Fee(percent per annum)
Greater than 50% of the aggregate amount of Commitments	0.25	%
Less than or equal to 50% of the aggregate amount of Commitments	0.15	%

Such Unused Fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on the Maturity Date, with the first such payment being due on December 31, 2018.

(c)Other Fees.  Borrower shall pay to the Arranger and Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.  Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.09Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.  All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to LIBOR) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).  Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which such Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which such Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day.  Each determination by Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.10Evidence of Debt.

(a)The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender

53

and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.  Upon the request of any Lender made through Administrative Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through Administrative Agent) a Note or Notes, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.  Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b)In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.11Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a)General.  All payments to be made by any Loan Party shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at Administrative Agent’s Office in U.S.  Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein.  Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office.  All payments received by Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment to be made by any Loan Party shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b)(i)Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of

54

payment to Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the applicable Facility.  If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.

(ii)Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c)Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent.  If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to Borrower as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to Borrower by Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d)Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to

55

so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(e)Funding Source.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f)Insufficient Funds.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due such parties.

2.12Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations held by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i)if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii)the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender or Disqualified Institution), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.14, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such

56

participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

2.13Increase in Commitments.

(a)Request for Increase.  Provided no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing, upon notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders if requested by Borrower), Borrower may request increases in the Facility so long as the Facility Amount (after giving effect thereto) shall not exceed, in the aggregate, Five Hundred Million and No/100 Dollars ($500,000,000.00).  Borrower may request an increase in the aggregate Commitments, provided that any such request for an increase must be in an aggregate minimum amount of Twenty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00).  At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond and Borrower may also invite prospective lenders to respond.  Borrower may provide the notice to any Lender or instruct Administrative Agent to only send the notice to certain Lenders.

(b)Lender Elections to Increase.  To the extent applicable, each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment, and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase.  Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.  Each prospective lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to fund any portion of the requested increase in the aggregate Commitments, and, if so, by what amount.  Any prospective lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to fund any portion of the requested increase in the aggregate Commitments.  No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Commitment.  Borrower shall not be obligated to offer to any Lender an opportunity to increase its Commitment.

(c)Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of the Lenders’ and prospective lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.  To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of Administrative Agent (only in its capacity as such) and each L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.  If any prospective lender agrees to fund any portion of the requested increase in the aggregate Commitments (an “Additional Lender”), such Additional Lender shall (i) execute such documents and agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to become a Lender hereunder, and (ii) in the case of any Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, provide to Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act.

57

(d)Effective Date and Allocations.  If the aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity as such) and Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase which, for any existing Lender participating in such increase, need not be ratable in accordance with their respective Commitments prior to such increase.  Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation selected by Borrower of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.  The selection of Lenders and allocations shall be subject to Borrower’s consent.

(e)Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase.  As a condition precedent to such increase, Borrower shall pay any fees agreed to in connection therewith and deliver to Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent: (i) a customary opinion of counsel to the Loan Parties, addressed to Administrative Agent and each Lender which will have a Commitment with respect to the increase (the “Increase Lenders”), as to matters concerning the Loan Parties and the Loan Documents under applicable laws as Administrative Agent or the Increase Lenders may reasonably request (and consistent with the opinion delivered on the Closing Date); (ii) if not previously delivered to Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary action taken by Borrower to authorize such increase and (B) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary action taken by Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase; (iii) if requested at least three (3) Business Days before the increase, new Notes executed by Borrower, payable to any new Lenders and replacement Notes executed by Borrower, payable to any Increase Lenders, in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment as of the Increase Effective Date; (iv) such duly executed modifications of the Security Instruments as are necessary to reflect that the Facility Amount has increased; (v) such endorsements from the Title Company as Administrative Agent may deem appropriate in its reasonable discretion in connection with the modified Security Instruments; (vi) evidence indicating whether any improvements or any part thereof located on any Borrowing Base Property are or will be located within a one hundred year flood plain or other area identified by Administrative Agent as having high or moderate risk of flooding or identified as a special flood hazard area as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and, if so, a flood notification form signed by the applicable Borrower and evidence that the flood insurance required under Section 6.16 below is in place for such improvements and contents, if applicable, all in form, substance and amount reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and (vii) a certificate of Borrower signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase,

(1)no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing;

(2)the representations and warranties made or deemed made by Borrower and any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be true and correct in all material respects on the effective date of such increase except (w) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, (x) any representation or warranty that is

58

already by its terms qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects as of such applicable date (including such earlier date set forth in the foregoing clause (w)) after giving effect to such qualification, (y) for purposes of this Section 2.13(e), the representations and warranties contained in subsection (a) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01; and (z) to the extent that such representations and warranties are not true and correct solely as a result of any Borrowing Base Property being an Ineligible Project at the time such representation and warranty is made; and

(3)the Total Outstandings do not exceed the lesser of (aa) the Facility Amount, or (bb) the Borrowing Base then in effect.

In the event of an increase in the aggregate Commitments, Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.  Borrower and the Lenders providing such increase in the aggregate Commitments may enter into an amendment to this Agreement as is necessary to evidence such increase without the consent of any other Lender.

(f)Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12 or 10.01 to the contrary.

2.14Cash Collateral.

(a)Certain Credit Support Events.  Upon the request of Administrative Agent or an Applicable L/C Issuer (i) if any Applicable L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, Borrower shall, in each case, within one (1) Business Day Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of Administrative Agent or any Applicable L/C Issuer, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b)Grant of Security Interest.  All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Administrative Agent.  Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.14(c).  If at any time Administrative

59

Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (unless provided by the applicable Defaulting Lender).

(c)Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.14 or Sections 2.03, 2.15 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations and the Lenders’ obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation).

(d)Release.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure L/C Obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or such other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.06(b)(v))) or (ii) Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (y) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.14 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.03 to the extent that Administrative Agent exercises remedies set forth in Section 8.02(b)), and (z) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Applicable L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

2.15Defaulting Lenders.

(a)Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i)Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders,” and Section 10.01.

(ii)Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any

60

amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to each Applicable L/C Issuer hereunder; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent or requested by one or more Applicable L/C Issuers, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default has occurred and is then continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders and the Applicable L/C Issuers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or L/C Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default has occurred and is then continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages hereunder.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)Certain Fees.

(A)No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees payable under Section 2.08 (including any Extension Fee) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B)No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Letter of Credit Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender); provided, however, notwithstanding the above, each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.14.

61

(C)(1) With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been reallocated to such non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Applicable L/C Issuers the remaining amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender after giving effect to the amount paid in clause (x) to the extent allocable to each such Applicable L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.  (2) With respect to any fee payable under Section 2.08(b) not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) above, Borrower shall (y) pay to the Applicable L/C Issuers the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to each such Applicable L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  In the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders that are Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages under the Facility (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (z) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate principal amount of any non-Defaulting Lender’s outstanding Loans plus such non-Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)Cash Collateral.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.14.

(b)Defaulting Lender Cure.  If Borrower, Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender shall no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to

62

the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.16Extension of Maturity Date.

(a)Request for Extension.  Borrower shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to Administrative Agent (such notice, an “Extension Notice”), to, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.16(b), extend the Maturity Date by one year (which date shall be referred to herein as the “Extended Maturity Date”).  Borrower shall deliver an Extension Notice at least sixty (60) days, but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days, prior to the Initial Maturity Date.  Administrative Agent shall distribute any such Extension Notice to the Lenders promptly following its receipt thereof.

(b)Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Maturity Date Extension.  As conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the extension of the Maturity Date, each of the following requirements shall be satisfied on the date of such extension:

(i)Administrative Agent shall have received an Extension Notice within the period required under Section 2.16(a) above;

(ii)On the date of such Extension Notice and on the Initial Maturity Date, both immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(iii)Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the Extension Fee;

(iv)Administrative Agent shall have received and approved a new Current Appraisal with respect to each Borrowing Base Property, and if the Current Value of the Borrowing Base Properties based on such new Current Appraisals is such that the Total Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base, then Borrower shall have satisfied its obligations under Section 2.04(b)(ii);

(v)The Total Outstandings shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Facility Amount, and (B) the Borrowing Base then in effect (after giving effect to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.04(b) and 2.16(b)(iv));

(vi)Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Initial Maturity Date, signed by a Responsible Officer of such

63

Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such extension or (B) certifying that, as of the Initial Maturity Date, the resolutions delivered to Administrative Agent and the Lenders on the Closing Date (which resolutions include approval for an extension of the Maturity Date for one twelve month period after the Initial Maturity Date) are and remain in full force and effect and have not been modified, rescinded or superseded since the date of adoption;

(vii)No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Initial Maturity Date, signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party, certifying the same;

(viii)The representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the Extension Notice and, both before and after giving effect to such extension, on and as of the Initial Maturity Date except (A) to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, (B) any representation or warranty that is already by its terms qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects as of such applicable date (including such earlier date set forth in the foregoing clause (A)) after giving effect to such qualification, (C) for purposes of this Section 2.16, the representations and warranties contained in subsection (a) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, and (D) to the extent that such representations and warranties are not true and correct solely as a result of any Borrowing Base Property being an Ineligible Project at the time such representation and warranty is made, and Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Initial Maturity Date, signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party, certifying the same;

(ix)Administrative Agent shall have received evidence indicating whether any improvements or any part thereof located on any Borrowing Base Property are or will be located within a one hundred year flood plain or other area identified by Administrative Agent as having high or moderate risk of flooding or identified as a special flood hazard area as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and, if so, a flood notification form signed by the applicable Borrower and evidence that the flood insurance required under Section 6.16 below is in place for such improvements and contents, if applicable, all in form, substance and amount reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and

(x)The Loan Parties shall have delivered to Administrative Agent reaffirmations of their respective obligations under the Loan Documents (after giving effect to the extension), and acknowledgments and certifications that they have no claims, offsets or defenses with respect to the payment or performance of any of the Loans.

64

(c)Conflicting Provisions.  This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III  TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01Taxes.

(a)Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws.  If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Administrative Agent or any Borrower, then Administrative Agent or such Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii)If any Borrower or Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document, then (A) such Borrower or Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by such Borrower or Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Borrower or Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b)Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower.  Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)Tax Indemnifications.

(i)Each Borrower shall, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to

65

be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient (but without duplication of amounts described in Section 3.01(a)(ii) above), and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate detailing the basis for the indemnification claim and the determination as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii)Each Lender or Applicable L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (x) Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer (but only to the extent that a Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of each Borrower to do so), (y) Administrative Agent and each Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) Administrative Agent and each Borrower, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent or such Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate detailing the basis for the indemnification claim and the determination as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or each Applicable L/C Issuer by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender or each Applicable L/C Issuer hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

(d)Evidence of Payments.  Upon request by Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower or by Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e)Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i)Any Lender (which solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(e) shall include Administrative Agent) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of

66

withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B), (ii)(C) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A)any Lender that is a U.S.  Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S.  federal backup withholding tax;

(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.  federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

67

(2)in the case of a Foreign Lender, for whom payments under the Loan Documents constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (y) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S.  Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (z) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable); or

(4)to the extent a Foreign Lender is a partnership or is otherwise not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Documents, executed copies of IRS Form W- 8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), a U.S.  Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 or Exhibit G-2, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender or a Foreign Participant is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender or Foreign Participant are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender or Foreign Participant may, in lieu of providing a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 or Exhibit G-2 on behalf of each such partner, instead provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 or Exhibit G-4 on behalf of all such Foreign Lender’s or Foreign Participant’s direct and indirect partners;

(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

68

(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S.  federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iii)Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)Treatment of Certain Refunds.  Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender.  If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (f), in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this subsection (f) the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection (f) shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to a Borrower or any other Person.

69

(g)Payments made by Administrative Agent.  For the avoidance of doubt, any payments made by Administrative Agent to any Lender shall be treated as payments made by the applicable Borrower.

(h)Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

3.02Illegality.  If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market (each, a “LIBOR Illegality Event”), then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, (x) Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component thereof until Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

During any period in which a LIBOR Illegality Event is in effect, Borrower may request, through Administrative Agent, that the Lenders affected by such LIBOR Illegality Event confirm that the circumstances giving rise to the LIBOR Illegality Event continue to be in effect.  If, within thirty Business Days following such confirmation request, such Lenders have not confirmed the continued effectiveness of such LIBOR Illegality Event, then such LIBOR Illegality Event shall no longer be deemed to be in effect; provided, that (A) Borrower shall not be permitted to submit any such request more than once in any 30-day period and (B) nothing contained in this Section 3.02 or the failure to provide confirmation of the continued effectiveness of such LIBOR

70

Illegality Event shall in any way affect the Lenders’ right to provide any additional notices of an LIBOR Illegality Event as provided in this Section 3.02.

3.03Inability to Determine Rates.

(a)If in connection with any request for a LIBOR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof (i) Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Loan, or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBOR Rate, as applicable ((including, without limitation, because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan (in each case with respect to this clause (i), the “Impacted Loans”), or (ii) Administrative Agent or the affected Lenders determine that for any reason the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such LIBOR Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender (each of (i) through (ii), a “Market Disruption Event”).  Thereafter, (1) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods), and (2) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Adjusted LIBO Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the affected Lenders) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(b)If at any time Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i)(B) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i)(B) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then Administrative Agent and Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date that a copy of such amendment or other notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such

71

amendment.  Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (y) any Borrowing Notice that requests the conversion of any Loan to, or continuation of any Loan as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective, and (z) if any Borrowing Notice requests a LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.  In the event that any alternate rate of interest established pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

(c)Subject to any agreement between Administrative Agent and Borrower establishing an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate pursuant to Section 3.03(b) above, during any period in which a Market Disruption Event is in effect, Borrower may request, through Administrative Agent, that the affected Lenders (who gave such notice), as applicable, confirm that the circumstances giving rise to the Market Disruption Event continue to be in effect.  If, within thirty Business Days following such confirmation request, the affected Lenders have not confirmed the continued effectiveness of such Market Disruption Event, then such Market Disruption Event shall no longer be deemed to be in effect; provided, that (A) Borrower shall not be permitted to submit any such request more than once in any 30 day period and (B) nothing contained in this Section 3.03 or the failure to provide confirmation of the continued effectiveness of such Market Disruption Event shall in any way affect the affected Lenders’ right to provide any additional notices of a Market Disruption Event as provided in this Section 3.03.

3.04Increased Costs; Reserves on LIBOR Loans.

(a)Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any L/C Issuer;

(ii)subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (excluding any Tax described in the parenthetical contained in clause (ii) preceding) affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is

72

determined by reference to LIBOR (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Applicable L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Applicable L/C Issuer or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Applicable L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as applicable, Borrower will pay to such Lender, Applicable L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Applicable L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.  If any Lender, Applicable L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any amounts as to which it has been paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.04(a), an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of the payments made by Borrower under this Section 3.04), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender, Applicable L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as applicable, shall (1) in the case of a Lender, be deducted from the interest amount payable by Borrower to such Lender for the next subsequent calendar month, (2) in the case of an Applicable L/C Issuer, be deducted from the Letter of Credit Fees payable by Borrower to such Applicable L/C Issuer on the next subsequent payment date pursuant to Section 2.03(h), and (3) in the case of any other Recipient, be promptly refunded to Borrower.

(b)Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or any L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or, liquidity ratios or requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Applicable L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such Applicable L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Applicable L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Applicable L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such Applicable L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or an Applicable L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04 and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Borrower shall pay such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d)Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s right to demand such

73

compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Applicable L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender or L/C Issuer will be entitled to demand, and Borrower will not be obligated to pay, any amount under this Section 3.04 to the extent that such demand is applied to the Loan Parties in a discriminatory manner.

3.05Compensation for Losses.  Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a)any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b)any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert into any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower; or

(c)any assignment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of the replacement of a Lender pursuant to Sections 3.06(b) and 10.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.  Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.  A certificate of an affected Lender setting forth its calculation of losses in detail will be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Loan made by it at LIBOR for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)Designation of a Different Lending Office.  Each Lender may make any Loan to Borrower through any Lending Office; provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms

74

of this Agreement.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then, at the request of Borrower, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous in any material respect to such Lender.  Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender determines or any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans pursuant to Section 3.02 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07Survival.  All of Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE IV  CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CREDIT EXTENSIONS AND APPROVAL OF BORROWING BASE PROPERTIES

Following the release of any Release Property, such Release Property shall no longer be a Borrowing Base Property and shall be excluded from the calculation of the Borrowing Base.

(b)Release of Borrower.  Upon (i) the release of the Security Instrument encumbering the last Release Property owned or leased by a Borrower as provided above in this Section 6.13, and the payment to Administrative Agent in full of the amount, if any, required pursuant to Sections 6.13(v) and 6.13(a)(x) above with respect to the release of such Release Property, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (unless such Default or Event of Default relates solely to the applicable Borrower and the effectuation of the release of such Borrower pursuant to this Section 6.13(b) will cure such Default or Event of Default), or (ii) the occurrence of any transaction permitted by Section 6.22(f) below following which the Borrower is not the continuing or surviving Person, such Borrower shall be deemed to no longer be a Borrower under the Loan Documents and, upon such Borrower’s request, Borrower, each other Borrower and Guarantor, and Administrative Agent (on behalf of Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders) shall each execute and deliver a reciprocal release agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, the applicable Borrower, each other Borrower and Guarantor, pursuant to which Borrower, each other Borrower and

97

6.15Minimum Property Condition.  Borrower shall satisfy the Minimum Property Condition at all times.

6.16Insurance and Casualty.

(a)Required Insurance Policies.  Borrower, at its expense, shall maintain and provide to Administrative Agent copies of policies or other satisfactory evidence of all Required Insurance Policies, which Required Insurance Policies may, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, contain customary and commercially reasonable deductibles.

(b)Policy Requirements; Insurance Consultant.  All insurance policies shall (i) be issued by an insurance company licensed to do business in the state where the applicable Borrowing Base Property is located having a rating of “A-” VIII or better by A.M.  Best Co., in Best’s Rating Guide, (ii) name “JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as Administrative Agent for itself and each Lender” as additional insured on general liability insurance and as mortgagee and loss payee on all property, flood insurance, earthquake insurance and rent loss or business interruption insurance (whether or not required hereunder), (iii) be endorsed to show that the insurance of the Borrower or Additional Borrower that owns or leases such Borrowing Base Property shall be primary and all insurance carried by Administrative Agent is strictly excess and secondary and shall not contribute with such Borrower’s or Additional Borrower’s insurance, (iv) provide that Administrative Agent is to receive thirty (30) days written notice prior to non-renewal or cancellation, (v) be evidenced by a certificate of insurance to be provided to Administrative Agent or such other evidence of insurance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, (vi) include either policy or binder numbers on the ACORD form, and (vii) be in form and amounts reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent; provided, however, that with respect to any flood insurance required hereunder, acceptable proof of coverage shall consist of a copy of the insurance policy, the declarations page of

98

the insurance policy or an application plus proof of premium payment (with a copy of the policy or declarations page provided to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days thereafter) and shall not include ACORD or other forms of certificates of insurance.  Administrative Agent, at its option and upon notice to Borrower, may retain no more than once every twelve (12) months, at Borrower’s expense, an insurance consultant to review the insurance for each Borrowing Base Property to confirm that it complies with the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(c)Evidence of Insurance; Payment of Premiums.  Following the expiration of an existing policy, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence acceptable to Administrative Agent of the continuation of the coverage of such expired policy as soon as such evidence of coverage is available to Borrower and in any event within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such policy.  If Administrative Agent has not received satisfactory evidence of such continuation of coverage in the time frame herein specified, Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance for Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests only.  Any amounts so disbursed by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be repaid by Borrower within ten (10) days after written demand therefor.  Nothing contained in this Section shall require Administrative Agent to incur any expense or take any action hereunder, and inaction by Administrative Agent shall never be considered a waiver of any right accruing to Administrative Agent on account on this Section.  The payment by Administrative Agent of any insurance premium for insurance which Borrower is obligated to provide hereunder but which Administrative Agent believes has not been paid, shall be conclusive between the parties as to the legality and amounts so paid.  Borrower agrees to pay all premiums on such insurance as they become due, and will not permit any condition to exist on or with respect to the Borrowing Base Property which would wholly or partially invalidate any insurance thereon.

(d)Collateral Protection.  Unless Borrower provides Administrative Agent with evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement as and when required under this Agreement, Administrative Agent may purchase insurance at Borrower’s expense to protect Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Borrowing Base Property.  This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interest in the Borrowing Base Property.  The coverages that Administrative Agent purchases may not pay any claim that Borrower makes or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with any Borrowing Base Property.  Borrower or Administrative Agent (as appropriate) may later cancel any insurance purchased by Administrative Agent, but only after Administrative Agent receives satisfactory evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement.  If Administrative Agent purchases insurance for the Borrowing Base Property or any portion thereof, Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including any charges imposed by Administrative Agent in connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of such insurance.  Any amounts paid by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be repaid by Borrower within ten (10) days after written demand therefor.  The costs of the insurance may, at Administrative Agent’s discretion, be added to Borrower’s total principal obligation owing to Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and in any event shall be secured by the liens on

99

the Borrowing Base Property created by the Loan Documents.  It is understood and agreed that (i) the costs of insurance obtained by Administrative Agent may be more than the costs of insurance Borrower may be able to obtain on its own and (ii) in the case of flood insurance, the amount of coverage may be more than required by the Flood Laws.

(e)No Liability; Assignment.  Administrative Agent shall not by the fact of approving, disapproving, accepting, preventing, obtaining or failing to obtain any such insurance, incur any liability for the form or legal sufficiency of insurance contracts, solvency of insurers, or payment of losses, and Borrower hereby expressly assumes full responsibility therefor and all liability, if any, thereunder.  Borrower hereby absolutely assigns and transfers to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to any unearned premiums paid on policies and any claims thereunder and Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assign any then existing claims under the same to any purchaser of any Borrowing Base Property at any foreclosure sale; provided, however, that so long as no Default exists and is continuing hereunder, Borrower shall have the right under a license granted hereby, and Administrative Agent hereby grants to Borrower a license, to exercise rights under said policies and in and to said premiums subject to the provisions of this Agreement.  Said license shall be revoked automatically upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder.  In the event of a foreclosure of any Security Instrument, or other transfer of any Borrowing Base Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Loans, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all proceeds then payable under insurance policies then in force shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of the Borrowing Base Property, to the extent such proceeds are assignable pursuant to the terms of the applicable policy or policies.

(f)No Separate Insurance.  Borrower shall not carry any separate insurance on any Borrowing Base Property concurrent in kind or form with any insurance required hereunder or contributing in the event of loss unless such policy shall have attached a standard non-contributing mortgagee clause, with loss payable to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and shall otherwise meet all other requirements set forth herein.

(g)Casualty Loss.

(i)If all or any part of any Borrowing Base Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall give prompt written notice and, if the claims exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000), make a claim to the insurance carrier and provide a copy of such claim to Administrative Agent.  With respect to any such casualty loss for which Borrower has an insurance claim that exceeds Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000), Borrower hereby authorizes and empowers Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s option and in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion as attorney-in-fact for Borrower, to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under insurance policies, to appear in and

100

prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds, and to deduct therefrom Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds; provided, however, that the foregoing authorization and empowerment of Administrative Agent to act as attorney-in-fact for Borrower shall not become effective until the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or until such time as Borrower fails to diligently pursue the collection of such insurance proceeds in Administrative Agent’s opinion.  The foregoing appointment is irrevocable, coupled with an interest, and continuing so long as the Commitments or Obligations remain outstanding, and such rights, powers and privileges shall be exclusive in Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders), its successors and assigns.

(ii)As sole loss payee on all policies of casualty insurance, Administrative Agent shall receive all insurance proceeds from any casualty loss, and shall hold the same in an interest-bearing account pending disposition in accordance with this Section; provided, however, that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall be continuing, Borrower shall be entitled to receive and hold all such insurance proceeds that do not exceed Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000).  Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent to deduct from such insurance proceeds received by Administrative Agent all of Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the collection thereof (the remainder of such insurance proceeds being referred to herein as “Net Casualty Proceeds”).

(iii)Administrative Agent shall cause the Net Casualty Proceeds from any casualty loss affecting a Borrowing Base Property in excess of Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000) to be disbursed for the cost of reconstruction of such Borrowing Base Property if all of the following conditions are satisfied within ninety (90) days after the applicable casualty loss: (A) Borrower projects, and Administrative Agent agrees, that the reconstruction can be completed within a reasonable period of time after such casualty loss (but in no event later than the Maturity Date) and that after giving effect to such reconstruction such Borrowing Base Property will be restored to substantially its condition immediately prior to the casualty loss; (B) Borrower satisfies Administrative Agent that the Net Casualty Proceeds are sufficient to pay all costs of reconstruction, or if insufficient, Borrower deposits with Administrative Agent additional funds to make up such insufficiency; (C) Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent all material plans and specifications and material construction contracts for the work of reconstruction and such plans and specifications and construction contracts are in form and content reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and with a contractor or contractors reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent; and (D) Administrative Agent is satisfied that (i) if the affected Borrowing Base Property is Standard Asset, within a reasonable period of time after completion of the reconstruction there will be in effect Leases demising in the aggregate no less than sixty percent (60%) of the aggregate rental square footage of the improvements located on such Borrowing Base Property, and (ii) if the affected Borrowing Base Property is a Hotel Asset,

101

the applicable Hotel Agreements will remain in full force and effect.  The disbursement of Net Casualty Proceeds pursuant to this clause (iii) shall be in accordance with customary disbursement procedures and shall not be available after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.  Any Net Casualty Proceeds not required to reconstruct the affected Borrowing Base Property shall be delivered to Borrower after expiration of the lien period for the work of reconstruction (or, at Borrower’s option, after delivery of title insurance to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, over such liens where the lien period has not so expired).  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy the conditions set forth in subclauses (A) through (D) hereof by the required date, Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have the right (but not the obligation) to apply all Net Casualty Proceeds held by it to the payment of the Obligations.  Borrower shall have the obligation to promptly and diligently complete the work of reconstruction necessitated by any casualty loss and restore the affected Borrowing Base Property to the equivalent of its condition immediately prior to such casualty provided the applicable Net Casualty Proceeds are made available to Borrower for such purpose.

6.17Condemnation and Other Awards.  Promptly upon receiving written notice of the institution or threatened institution of any proceeding for the condemnation of any Borrowing Base Property or any part thereof, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such fact.  Borrower shall then file or defend its rights thereunder and prosecute the same with due diligence to its final disposition; provided, however, that Borrower shall not enter into any settlement of such proceeding without the prior approval of Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at its option, to appear in any such proceeding in its own name, on behalf of the Lenders, and upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or if Borrower fails to diligently prosecute such proceeding, (a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at its option, to appear in and prosecute any such proceeding or to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such condemnation on behalf of Borrower, and (b) Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, and such appointment is coupled with an interest, to commence, appear in and prosecute such action or proceeding or to make such compromise or settlement in connection with any such condemnation on its behalf.  The foregoing appointment is continuing so long as the Commitments or Obligations remain outstanding, and such rights, powers and privileges shall be exclusive in Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders), its successors and assigns.  If any Borrowing Base Property or any material part thereof is taken or materially diminished in value in connection with such condemnation, or if a consent settlement is entered, by or under threat of such proceeding, the award or settlement payable to Borrower by virtue of its interest in the affected Borrowing Base Property, shall be, and by these presents is, assigned, transferred and set over unto Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders.  Any such award or settlement shall be first applied to reimburse Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the collection of such award or settlement.  The balance of such award or settlement (the “Net Condemnation Proceeds”) shall be paid to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders for application in the manner set forth in Section 6.16(g) as if such award or settlement constituted insurance proceeds from a casualty loss;

102

provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make Net Condemnation Proceeds available for construction or reconstruction of the affected Borrowing Base Property unless Administrative Agent has determined that such Borrowing Base Property as so constructed or reconstructed after giving effect to the condemnation would have a value that is not materially less than its value would have been had there been no such condemnation.  Borrower shall have the obligation to promptly and diligently complete the work of reconstruction necessitated by any condemnation and restore the affected Borrowing Base Property to the substantial equivalent of its condition immediately prior to such condemnation provided the applicable Net Condemnation Proceeds are made available to Borrower for such purpose.

6.18ERISA.

(a)Plan Assets; Compliance; No Material Liability.  Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that (i) Borrower shall not use any Plan Assets to repay or secure the Obligations, (ii) no assets of Borrower or Guarantor are or will be Plan Assets, (iii) each Employee Benefit Plan will be in material compliance with all applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code except to the extent any defects can be remedied without material liability to Borrower under Revenue Procedure 2008-50 or any similar procedure, and (iv) Borrower will not have any material liability under Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan.

(c)Indemnity.  Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender, their respective Affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate is a party thereto) which any of them may actually pay or incur by reason of the investigation, defense and settlement of claims and in obtaining any prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA or the Code necessary in Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s judgment by reason of the inaccuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.12 hereof or a breach of the provisions set forth in this Section 6.18.  The obligations of Borrower under this Section 6.18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

103

6.19Controlled Substances.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.14 or Section 5.21, Borrower shall not violate, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to suffer or permit any tenant leasing space in any Borrowing Base Property to violate, the Controlled Substances Act.  Upon any Responsible Officer of Borrower obtaining knowledge of any conduct in violation of the first sentence of this Section 6.19, Borrower shall promptly take all actions reasonably expected under the circumstances to terminate any such use of the affected Borrowing Base Property, including:  (a) to give timely notice to any appropriate law enforcement agency of information that led Borrower to know such conduct had occurred, and (b) in a timely fashion to revoke or make a good faith attempt to revoke permission for those engaging in such conduct to use the affected Borrowing Base Property or to take reasonable actions in consultation with a law enforcement agency to discourage or prevent illegal use of the affected Borrowing Base Property.

6.20[Reserved].

6.21[Reserved].

6.22Negative Covenants.  So long as any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder, any Loan or other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than any contingent obligation not yet due and payable), or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding, Borrower shall not:

If at the time of declaration any Restricted Payment is permitted by this Section 6.22(c), the making of such Restricted Payment shall be deemed permitted.

(a)If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:

(i)declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of any L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

(ii)declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties;

(iii)require that Borrower Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

(iv)exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents and applicable Laws, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.01(c) or (d) occurs, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligations of the L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(b)[Reserved].

(c)Without limiting the generality of Section 8.01(a) above, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but shall have no obligation) at any time to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Administrative Agent reasonably determines is necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Franchise Documents or to protect the rights of Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Lender thereunder.  Administrative Agent shall incur no liability if any action so taken by it or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, and, except to the extent directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent. Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest, in Borrower’s name or in Administrative Agent’s name, to enforce all rights of Borrower under the Franchise Documents; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall not take any action pursuant to the foregoing appointment except upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default.  Administrative Agent and/or Lenders may advance funds for any of the

111

purposes described in this Section 8.02(c) and such advances, even if in excess of the amount of the Facility, shall be payable to Administrative Agent and Lenders on demand and shall be secured by the Loan Documents.

(d)For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, an Event of Default that relates solely to any Borrower or Borrowing Base Property shall be cured and no longer continuing upon the release of such Borrower or such Borrowing Base Property, in each case, pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 6.13.

8.03Application of Funds.  After an exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.14 and 2.15, be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of any Lender) and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid fees due hereunder and under the Fee Letter, Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans, the L/C Borrowings and other Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and L/C Borrowings then due, Swap Obligations then due and breakage, termination or other payments then owing under Lender Cash Management Agreements, on a pari passu basis, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, Swap Obligations and payments owing under Lender Cash Management Agreements then due to such parties;

Fifth, to Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuers, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been made) have been paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Section 2.14, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such

112

Letters of Credit as they occur.  If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired or cancelled, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Loan Parties to preserve the allocation to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 8.03.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Swap Agreements and Cash Management Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if Administrative Agent has not received a Designation Notice, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank (except if such Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank is the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent), as the case may be.  Each Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX for itself and its Affiliates as if such Affiliates were a “Lender” party hereto.

8.04Curing of Defaults.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Administrative Agent without waiving any right of acceleration or foreclosure under the Loan Documents which Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have by reason of such Event of Default or any other right Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have against Borrower because of said Event of Default, shall have the right (but not the obligation) to take such actions and make such payments as shall be necessary to cure such Event of Default, including, without limitation, the making of Loans.  All amounts so expended shall constitute Obligations and shall be payable by Borrower on demand by Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE IX  ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.01Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders and each of the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints JPMC to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each Lender authorizes Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) on behalf of, and for the benefit of, the Lenders and to take all actions left to the discretion of Administrative Agent herein and therein on behalf of, and for the benefit of, the Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement), and any action taken by Administrative Agent not requiring consent by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement) shall be authorized by and binding upon all Lenders.  The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (other than Sections 9.06 and 9.10).  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other

113

Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

9.02Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.03Exculpatory Provisions.  Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:

(a)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(c)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to

114

have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of scheduled payments of principal and interest, unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given in writing to Administrative Agent by Borrower, a Lender or any L/C Issuer.

Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent, (vi) the financial condition of any Loan Party, or (vii) the creation, perfection or priority of the Lien on any Borrowing Base Property.

Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not (y) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (z) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

Where the Administrative Agent is required or deemed to act as a trustee in respect of any collateral over which a security interest has been created pursuant to a Loan Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the United States, the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in its capacity as trustee shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

9.04Reliance by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Applicable L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Applicable L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

115

9.05Delegation of Duties.  Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub- agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

9.06Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a)Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the approval of Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing (such approval not to be withheld or delayed unreasonably), to appoint a successor, which shall be a commercial bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its respective Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, subject to the approval of Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing (such approval not to be withheld or delayed unreasonably), appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed

116

Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender, a Disqualified Institution, or an Affiliate of any Defaulting Lender or Disqualified Institution.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(c) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(d)Any resignation by, or removal of, JPMC as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an L/C Issuer.  If JPMC resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Applicable Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c).  Upon the appointment by Borrower of a successor L/C Issuer hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer, (b) JPMC shall be discharged as L/C Issuer from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Applicable Letters of Credit, if any, issued by JPMC and outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to JPMC to effectively assume the obligations of JPMC with respect to such Applicable Letters of Credit.

9.07Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into

117

this Agreement.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.08No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof (or any other Arranger) shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder.

9.09Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, the L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.08 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each L/C Issuer to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.08 and 10.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any L/C Issuer to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.

118

9.10Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a)Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 or with respect to a Lender’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding (whether in its capacity as a Lender, Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank), no Lender (whether in its capacity as a Lender, Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank) shall have any right individually to realize upon any collateral or enforce any part of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Swap Agreement or any Cash Management Agreement with respect to the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, any Swap Agreement and any Cash Management Agreement may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof.  In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC.  In the event that any collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Lenders any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders.  With respect to any action by Administrative Agent to enforce the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which such action is maintained, and agrees to deliver its Note to Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to enforce the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under any Security Instrument in accordance with the provisions hereof.  Each Lender agrees to indemnify each of the other Lenders for any loss or damage suffered or cost incurred by such other Lender (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses and other costs of defense) as a result of the breach of this Section 9.10 by such Lender.

(b)The Lenders (including, if applicable, in their capacity as a potential Cash Management Bank and potential Hedge Bank) irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to any Permitted Encumbrance. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by Borrower or Guarantor in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the collateral.

(c)Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.09, each Lender (including, if applicable, in its capacity as a potential Cash Management Bank and potential Hedge Bank) and each L/C Issuer irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion (a) to release any Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to Section 6.13 hereof, (b) to release the Cash Collateral and any Lien thereon in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.14, and (c) to release and reconvey any Borrowing Base Property from the Lien of the applicable Security Instrument (and any other Loan Documents) pursuant to Section 6.13.  Upon request by Administrative

119

Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Borrower under the Loan Documents, any Cash Collateral and any Lien thereon, and any Borrowing Base Property and any Lien thereon, in each case, pursuant to this Section 9.10.

9.11Credit Bidding.  The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to an assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any Debtor Relief Laws, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.  In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Lenders’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 10.01 of this Agreement), (iv) Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Lenders, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Lender or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Lender or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Lender is deemed assigned to

120

the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Lender shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Lender (and/or any designee of the Lender which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

9.12Foreclosure.  In the event that all or any portion of a Borrowing Base Property is acquired by Administrative Agent as the result of a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the Obligations, title to such Borrowing Base Property or any portion thereof shall be held in the name of Administrative Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of Administrative Agent, as agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, or in an entity co-owned by the Lenders as determined by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Borrowing Base Property (the “Post-Foreclosure Plan”) and submit it to the Lenders for approval by the Required Lenders.  In the event that Administrative Agent does not obtain the approval of the Required Lenders to such Post-Foreclosure Plan, any Lender shall be permitted to submit an alternative Post-Foreclosure Plan to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall submit any and all such additional Post-Foreclosure Plan(s) to the Lenders for evaluation and the approval by the Required Lenders.  In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Borrowing Base Property acquired and administer all transactions relating thereto, including, without limitation, employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Borrowing Base Property, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Borrowing Base Property and paying the expenses of such Borrowing Base Property.  Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its ratable share (based on their respective Commitments immediately prior to the termination thereof) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent pursuant to the Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of the Borrowing Base Property.  In addition, Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered by the managing agent, to each of the Lenders, monthly, an income and expense statement for such Borrowing Base Property, and each of the Lenders shall promptly contribute its ratable share (based on their respective Commitments immediately prior to the termination thereof) of any operating loss for the Borrowing Base Property, and such other expenses and operating reserves as Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the Post-Foreclosure Plan.  To the extent there is net operating income from such Borrowing Base Property, Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to the Lenders.  All such distributions shall be made to the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments immediately prior to the termination thereof.  The Lenders acknowledge that if title to any Borrowing Base Property is obtained by Administrative Agent or its nominee, or an entity co-owned by the Lenders, such Borrowing Base Property will not be held as a permanent investment but will be disposed of as soon as practicable and within a time period consistent with the regulations applicable to national banks for owning real estate.  Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Borrowing Base Property at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders shall reasonably determine to be most advantageous.  Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Borrowing Base

121

Property in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name Administrative Agent, as agent for the Lenders, as the beneficiary or mortgagee.  In such case, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage defining the rights of the Lenders in the same, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to the rights of the Lenders with respect to the Borrowing Base Property.  Lenders agree not to unreasonably withhold or delay their approval of a Post-Foreclosure Plan or any third party offer to purchase the Borrowing Base Property.  An offer to purchase the Borrowing Base Property or any portion thereof at a gross purchase price of ninety-five percent (95%) of the fair market value of such property as set forth in a current appraisal, shall be deemed to be a reasonable offer.

9.13Swap Agreements and Cash Management Agreements.  Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section 8.03 of this Agreement or the Guaranty by virtue of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or of the Guaranty) other than in its capacity as a Lender, an L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent, as applicable, and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Cash Management Agreements and Swap Agreements except to the extent expressly provided herein and unless Administrative Agent has received a Designation Notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank (except if such Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank is Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of Administrative Agent), as the case may be.  Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Cash Management Agreements and Swap Agreements in the case of a termination of this Agreement and the Facility.

9.14Approvals of Lenders.  All communications from Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent or approval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, consent or approval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved and (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved.  Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the requested determination, consent or approval within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such requested determination, consent or approval.  The provisions of this Section 9.14 shall not apply to any amendment, waiver or consent regarding any of the matters described in Sections 10.01(a) through (j).

122

9.15ERISA Representations.

(a)Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or Guarantor, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

10.05Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount received by such Lender or

(i)Minimum Amounts.

(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it under the Facility or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section 10.06 in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii)Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.

(iii)Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section 10.06 and, in addition:

(A)the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender, in respect of the applicable Facility; provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B)the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if an assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender; and

(C)the consent of each L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

(iv)Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of Three Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) payable by the assignor; provided, however, that

134

Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v)No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made (A) to any Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Affiliates, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), (C) to a Disqualified Institution (provided that such restriction in this clause (C) shall not apply if an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) hereof exists) or (D) to a natural person.  Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for monitoring or enforcing the list of Disqualified Institutions or for any assignment of any Loan or Commitment or any other rights of a Lender hereunder or for the sale of any participation, in either case, to a Disqualified Institution.

(vi)Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by such Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 10.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that

135

except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Upon request, Borrower (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a substitute Note to (i) the assignee Lender and/or (ii) in the case of a partial assignment by a Lender of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, the assigning Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection (b) (other than a purported assignment or transfer to a Disqualified Institution) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(d).

Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section 10.06(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this Section 10.06(b), Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, including without limitation Sections 2.02(b) or 2.11(d), Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section.

(c)Register.  Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  In addition, Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender.  The Register shall be available for inspection by any Loan Party and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower, any other Loan Party or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, a Disqualified Institution, or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or

136

a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, the other Loan Parties, Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant.  Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b) provided that the Participant shall be subject to the requirements and limitations therein as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.06(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, 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

137

this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment, or grant of a security interest, to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment or grant shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f)Resignation as L/C Issuer after Assignment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i)if at any time any L/C Issuer assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, such L/C Issuer shall, upon thirty (30) calendar days’ notice to Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer.  In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer, Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer hereunder with the consent of such successor L/C Issuer; provided, however, no failure by Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of such L/C Issuer as an L/C Issuer.

(ii)any L/C Issuer may resign upon thirty (30) calendar day notice to Borrower and the other Lenders, provided, however if any resigning L/C Issuer remains as a Lender, then its resignation shall not be effective until a successor L/C Issuer is appointed by Borrower from among the Lenders and the agreement of such appointment by such successor L/C Issuer.

If any L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).  Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the resigning L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

10.07Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.  Each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and such disclosure is in connection with such disclosing Person acting as Administrative Agent

138

or Lender), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) (in which case the disclosing party agrees, to the extent practicable and permitted by applicable law, to notify Borrower promptly prior to such disclosure), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or Swap Agreement or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Swap Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.07, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (in each case, other than any Disqualified Institution unless such Disqualified Institution has or may become an assignee of or Participant in its rights and obligations under this Agreement at a time it was or is permitted to do so under the terms of this Agreement) or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 10.06 or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) (in each case, other than any Disqualified Institution unless such Disqualified Institution has or may become such a party at a time it was or is permitted to do so under the terms of this Agreement) to any Swap Agreement under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, except that no such agreement shall be required in connection with the disclosure to any such Person of the names of the Disqualified Institutions or the tax identification numbers of the Loan Parties posted on the Platform, (g) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (y) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.07 or (z) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower or another Loan Party.  In addition, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Facility.  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof, provided that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non- public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

139

10.08Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender, any such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, L/C Issuer or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (y) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (z) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER OR L/C ISSUER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LENDER’S LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SWAP AGREEMENT OR ANY CASH MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OR L/C ISSUER OF ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS AS REQUIRED ABOVE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.  THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS.

10.09Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”).  If Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds

140

the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10Counterparts; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopier or other electronic imaging means (e.g.  “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.  Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

10.12Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent or the Applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13Replacement of Lenders.  If Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then Borrower may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section

141

10.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a)Borrower shall have paid (or cause the fee to be paid) to Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d)such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

(e)in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each Lender agrees that, if Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 10.13, it shall promptly execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to Administrative Agent any Note (if any Note has been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

10.18USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.  Each Loan Party shall, promptly following a request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

10.20Swap Agreements.  All Swap Agreements, if any, between Borrower and any Lender or Affiliate of any Lender are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of said Swap Agreements, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms of the Loan Documents, except as otherwise expressly provided in said written Swap Agreements, and any payoff statement from Administrative Agent relating to the Loans shall not apply to said Swap Agreements.

10.21Statements.  Administrative Agent may from time to time provide Borrower with account statements or invoices with respect to any of the Obligations (the “Statements”).

146

during the relevant billing period, whether of principal, interest, fees or other Obligations. If Borrower pays the full amount indicated on a Statement on or before the due date indicated on such Statement, Borrower shall not be in default of payment with respect to the billing period indicated on such Statement; provided, that acceptance by Administrative Agent of any payment that is less than the total amount actually due at that time (including but not limited to any past due amounts) shall not constitute a waiver of Administrative Agent’s right to receive payment in full at another time.

10.22Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(i)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with or is inconsistent with the Agreement, the Agreement shall control.

FORM OF CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

INDEMNITY AND CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

This Indemnity and Contribution Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated as of October 30, 2018 (the “Effective Date”) is entered into among 4750 WILSHIRE BLVD. (LA) OWNER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“4750 Wilshire”), 9460 WILSHIRE BLVD (BH) OWNER, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“9460 Wilshire”), CIM/11600 WILSHIRE (LOS ANGELES), LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“11600 Wilshire”), CIM/11620 WILSHIRE (LOS ANGELES), LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“11620 Wilshire”), 1130 HOWARD (SF) OWNER, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“1130 Howard”), LINDBLADE MEDIA CENTER (LA) OWNER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lindblade Media”) and CIM URBAN REIT PROPERTIES IX, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“CIM Urban REIT” and, together with 4750 Wilshire, 9460 Wilshire, 11600 Wilshire, 11620 Wilshire, 1130 Howard and Lindblade Media, and each additional borrower form time to time party to the Credit Agreement defined and described below, individually, “Borrower” and, collectively, and jointly and severally, “Borrowers”).

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement of even date herewith (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Borrowers, each of the lenders (each, a “Lender” and collectively, “Lenders”) from time to time party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association, as administrative agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”).  Terms used and not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, Lenders have agreed to make one or more loans and other extensions of credit (collectively, the “Loan”) to Borrowers in an initial principal amount not to exceed Two Hundred Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($250,000,000.00), as such amount may be increased from time to time, all as more particularly described in the Credit Agreement.  Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loan for the purposes set forth therein.

Each Borrower acknowledges that it expects to receive financial and other support, directly or indirectly, from other Borrowers (including, without limitation, from the proceeds of the Loan).  Accordingly, each Borrower has determined that it is in its interest and to its financial benefit that each Borrower be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations.  In support of such joint and several Obligations, Borrowers have agreed to execute and deliver an agreement in the form hereof.

Accordingly, Borrowers agree as follows:

SECTION 1Indemnity and Contribution

A.Definitions.  The following defined terms are used in this Section 1:

“Claiming Borrower”:  Any Borrower which has made an Excess Payment, until the amount thereof has been reduced to zero through reimbursements to such Borrower hereunder or otherwise.

H-1

“Excess Payment”:  The amount of any payment made by a Borrower to Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement, in excess of the amount of benefit directly or indirectly derived by such Borrower from Loan proceeds borrowed (which benefit may be derived by direct borrowing or otherwise).  Each reference to “payment made” or “proceeds borrowed” in the definition of both “Excess Payment” and “Payment Deficiency” shall refer to such payments made on or following, or borrowings outstanding as of, as applicable, the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration under the Loan.

“First Round Contributing Borrower”:  Each Borrower as to which a Payment Deficiency exists.

“Net Worth”:  At any point in time and subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Sections 1C and/or 1D below, the difference between the following:  (1) the aggregate value of all assets (including contingent assets) of the applicable Borrower (at present fair saleable value), less (2) the aggregate amount of all liabilities (including contingent liabilities) of such Borrower.

“Payment Deficiency”:  The amount of benefit directly or indirectly derived by a Borrower from Loan proceeds borrowed (which benefit may be derived by direct borrowing or otherwise) in excess of payments made by such Borrower under the Credit Agreement.

“Second Round Claiming Borrower”:  Each Borrower that has made an Excess Payment that has not been completely reimbursed pursuant to Section 1B below and that has a negative Net Worth after giving effect to reimbursements made pursuant to Section 1B below.

“Second Round Contributing Borrower”:  Each Borrower having a positive Net Worth after giving effect to payments made or received by that Borrower pursuant to Section 1B below.

B.First Round Contributions.  Each First Round Contributing Borrower shall be responsible, by way of contribution (and without duplication), for the reimbursement to each of the Claiming Borrowers of an amount equal to the Excess Payment of each Claiming Borrower; provided, that the aggregate amount owed by any First Round Contributing Borrower shall not exceed the Payment Deficiency of such First Round Contributing Borrower.  The aggregate amounts so reimbursed by all First Round Contributing Borrowers shall be allocated, among all Claiming Borrowers, in proportion to the Excess Payment made by each such Claiming Borrower as compared to the aggregate Excess Payments made by all such Claiming Borrowers.

C.Second Round Contributions.  In the event that there exists one or more Second Round Claiming Borrowers, then there shall be a second contribution round for the benefit of each Second Round Claiming Borrower in accordance with this Section 1C.  The Second Round Contributing Borrowers shall reimburse, to each Second Round Claiming Borrower, an aggregate amount equal to the total remaining Excess Payments of such Second Round Claiming Borrower; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount so paid by any Second Round Contributing Borrower exceed the amount of its positive Net Worth (calculated before giving effect to the contribution made by such party under this Section 1C).  Subject to the foregoing proviso, the

H-2

amount so contributed by each Second Round Contributing Borrower shall be equal to such total remaining Excess Payments multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the positive Net Worth of such Second Round Contributing Borrower, and the denominator of which is the aggregate positive Net Worth of all Second Round Contributing Borrowers.  The aggregate amount of such contributions under this Section 1C shall, in turn, be allocated among such Second Round Claiming Borrowers in proportion to the remaining Excess Payment of each.

D.Subsequent Round Contributions.  In the event that an Excess Payment made by a Second Round Claiming Borrower is not completely reimbursed pursuant to Section 1C above (or pursuant to any subsequent round of contribution payments made under this Section 1D), then there shall be a further contribution round in which each Borrower which made a contribution in the immediately preceding round and continues to have a positive Net Worth after giving effect thereto shall be responsible, by way of contribution, for its pro rata share of such remaining unreimbursed Excess Payments; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be required to make a contribution in excess of its positive Net Worth (calculated immediately prior to the making of such contribution).  The calculation of such further pro rata contribution obligations as between such contributing Borrowers, and the allocation of such contributions among such Claiming Borrowers, shall proceed in each such subsequent round in accordance with the respective proration and allocation provisions as set forth in Section 1C.  Nothing in this Section 1 shall affect any Borrower’s joint and several liability for all Obligations.

SECTION 2No Waiver of Other Rights.  All rights of each Borrower under Section 1 shall be in addition to and not in derogation of all other rights of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation which each Borrower may have under applicable law in respect of the Credit Agreement, but in all events subject to the subordination provisions in Section 3.  However, each Borrower shall be entitled to only a single satisfaction of any claim giving rise to any rights under Section 1 and applicable law in respect of the Credit Agreement, and such other rights of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation shall be expressly subordinate (in time and right of payment) to the contractual rights of each Borrower under Section 1.

SECTION 3Subordination.  All rights of each Borrower under Section 1 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation under applicable law shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than contingent Obligations not yet due and payable).  No failure on the part of any Borrower to make the payments required by Section 1 or any other payments (including, without limitation, as a result of a stay upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower) arising by reason of any Borrower’s rights of indemnity, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation under applicable law in respect of the Credit Agreement shall limit the obligations of any in respect of the Credit Agreement, and each Borrower shall remain liable for the full amount of its respective Obligations to Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that such continuing liability shall not impair the rights of any Borrower under Section 2, subject to the foregoing subordination.

SECTION 4Waivers.

A.Each of the Borrowers waives any right to require a Claiming Borrower to (i) proceed against any person, including another Borrower; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held from another Borrower or any other person; (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Claiming Borrower’s power; or (iv) make any presentments, demands for performance, or give

H-3

any notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the payments required under this Agreement.

B.Each Borrower waives any defense arising by reason of (i) any disability or other defense of, any other Borrower or any other person; (ii) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full, of any liability of any Borrower or any other Person; (iii) any act or omission by a Claiming Borrower which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of a Borrower from the obligation to make payments required by this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise; and (iv) any modification of the Obligations, in any form whatsoever, including any modification made after revocation hereof to any Obligations incurred prior to such revocation, and including without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of the Obligations, or other change in the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon.

C.Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by a Claiming Borrower, even though that election of remedies might prejudice such Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against another Borrower.

SECTION 5Termination.  This Agreement shall survive and remain in full force and effect so long as any amount remains owing under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than contingent Obligations not yet due and payable), and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any part of a payment of principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Borrower upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise; provided, however, that any Borrower that is released from the Obligations pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall immediately cease to be a Borrower for purposes of this Agreement and shall be concurrently released from all liability hereunder.

SECTION 6No Waiver.  No failure on the part of any Borrower to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any Borrower preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.  All remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.  No Borrower shall be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless the waiver is in writing and signed by the party or parties affected.

SECTION 7Binding Agreement.  Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties is referred to, the reference shall include the successors and assigns of the party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the parties that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.  This Agreement shall not be amended or terminated, nor any provision herein waived, and no Borrower may assign or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement (and any attempted assignment or delegation shall be void), without in each case the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent and each Lender are intended to the benefits created in favor of each Borrower by the indemnification and contribution provisions of this Agreement.

H-4

SECTION 8Severability.  To the extent that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party shall be required to comply with the provision for so long as the provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, but the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired.  The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument.  The counterpart signature pages may be detached and assembled to form a single original document.

SECTION 10Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
