If any payment received by Administrative Agent in respect of principal or interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be returned by Administrative Agent under any of the circumstances described in Section 13.04 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Committed Lender on behalf of its Lender Group shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lender Groups and the Committed Lenders under this clause (ii) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligation and the termination of this Credit Agreement.

2.07 to refinance such Lender Group’s share of any Swingline Loan, interest in respect of such share shall be solely for the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender.

(i)

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on any Business Day during the Letter of Credit Availability Period: (A) the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Committed Lenders set forth in this Section 2.08: (1) to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of a Borrower Party, in aggregate face amounts that shall be not less than $100,000, as a Borrower Party may request (except to the extent a lesser amount is requested by such Borrower Party and agreed by Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer), and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it; and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) Committed Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit

issued for the account of a Borrower Party and any drawings thereunder; provided, however that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit: (I) the Principal Obligation will not exceed the Available Commitment; (II) the Letter of Credit Liability will not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; (III) the aggregate Principal Obligation of the Lenders that are members of any Lender Group will not exceed the Lender Group Limit of such Lender Group; (IV) the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the Principal Obligation that is denominated in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Maximum Commitment; and (VIV) the Principal Obligation of any Committed Lender will not exceed such Lender’s Commitment (minus any amounts funded in respect of a Loan hereunder (but not used to fund such Loan and accordingly not included in the Principal Obligation) by any such Committed Lender as a Liquidity Provider under a Liquidity Agreement). Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, a Borrower Party’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly a Borrower Party may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired (without any pending drawing) or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. The Letter of Credit Issuer shall have the right to approve the form of Letter of Credit requested.

(ii)

The Letter of Credit Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if: (A) subject to Section 2.08(b)(iii), the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve (12) months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Letter of Credit Issuer of such Letter of Credit have approved such expiry date in its sole discretion; or (B) the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur after the Stated Maturity Date, without the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer of such Letter of Credit (in its sole discretion), in which case any such Letter of Credit shall be Cash Collateralized on the Letter of Credit Collateralization Date; provided, however, that the expiry date of such Letter of Credit shall not occur more than twelve (12) months after the Stated Maturity Date.

(A)

any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Letter of Credit Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Letter of Credit Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Letter of Credit Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Letter of Credit Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Letter of Credit Issuer in good faith deems material to it (for which the Letter of Credit Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder);

(E)

any Committed Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless no Fronting Exposure exists or would exist after issuing such Letter of Credit (after giving effect to Section 2.172.15(a)(viv)) with respect to such Defaulting Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the applicable Borrower Party or such Committed Lender to eliminate the Letter of Credit Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.172.15(a)(viv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Liability as to which the Letter of Credit Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

(i)

Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of a Borrower Party delivered to the Letter of Credit Issuer selected by such Borrower Party with respect to such Letter of Credit (with a copy to Administrative Agent) in the form of a Request for Credit Extension, together with a Borrowing Base Certificate, each appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower Party. Such Request for Credit Extension may be sent by fax, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the Letter of Credit Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means reasonably acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer. Such Request for Credit Extension must be received by the Letter of Credit Issuer and Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least three

(3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, of any Letter of Credit (or such later date and time as Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion). In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Request for Credit Extension shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit 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 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; and (G) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, the related Request for Credit Extension shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day);

(3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the Letter of

Credit Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower Party shall furnish to the Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer or Administrative Agent may reasonably require. Each Request for Credit Extension submitted by a Borrower Party shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Section 7.02(a) and (b) have been satisfied on and as of the date of the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit.

(ii)

Promptly after receipt of any Request for Credit Extension relating to a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer will confirm with Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Request for Credit Extension from a Borrower Party and, if not, the Letter of Credit Issuer will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. The Letter of Credit Issuer shall also promptly notify each Funding Agent (which in turn shall promptly notify each Committed Lender in its Lender Group) of the Request for Credit Extension and the terms thereof. Unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has received written notice from any Committed Lender, Administrative Agent or any Borrower 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 Section 7 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower Party or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Letter of Credit Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Committed Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Letter of Credit Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Committed Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. With the approval of Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer, the risk participation of each Committed Lender shall terminate upon the occurrence of the Maturity Date and the full and final payment of the Obligations (other than the Cash Collateralized Letter of Credit Liability described below), and the Issuer Documents, rather than this Credit Agreement, shall govern the rights and obligations of Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer and Borrower Parties with respect to such Letter of Credit Liability, so long as Borrower

has Cash Collateralized all Letter of Credit Liability then outstanding, to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent and Letter of Credit Issuer.

(iii)

If a Borrower Party so requests in any applicable Request for Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer may, in its sole and reasonable 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 Letter of Credit 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 at least five (5) days’ prior notice to the beneficiary thereof and the Borrower (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, a Borrower Party shall not be required to make a specific request to the Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Collateralization Date; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not permit any such extension if: (A) the Letter of Credit 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 clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.08(a) or otherwise); or (B) it has received written notice on or before the day that is five (5) 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 any Borrower Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section

7.02 and, if applicable, Section 7.03, is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing

(i)

Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower Party and Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 12:00 noon on the date of any payment by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the applicable Borrower Party shall reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer through Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If a Borrower Party fails to so reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer by such time, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Funding Agent (which shall in turn promptly notify such Committed Lender in its Lender Group) of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Committed Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower Party 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 amount specified in Section 2.03 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Available

Commitment and the applicable conditions set forth in Section 7 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by the Letter of Credit Issuer or Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.08(c)(i) must be given in writing; provided that the lack of such an prompt confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(1) Business Day in advance of its funding obligation hereunder), whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(c)(iii), each Committed 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 Letter of Credit Issuer.

(iii)

With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the applicable conditions set forth in Section 7, cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower Party shall be deemed to have incurred from the Letter of Credit 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 Committed Lender’s payment to Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.08(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Committed Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.08.

(v)

Each Committed Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.08(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including: (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Committed Lender may have against the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Borrower Party, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Committed Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 2.08(c) is subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Section 7 (other than delivery of a Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Borrower Party to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi)

If any Committed Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Committed Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.08(c) by the time specified in Section 2.08(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Credit Agreement, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Committed 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 the Letter of Credit Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Letter of Credit Issuer submitted to any Committed Lender (through Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(i)

At any time after the Letter of Credit Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Committed Lender such Committed Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.08(c), if Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower Party or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent will distribute to such Committed Lender its share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Committed Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by Administrative Agent.

of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Letter of Credit Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

Each Borrower Party 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 such Borrower Party’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower Party will promptly notify the Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Borrower Party shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Letter of Credit Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f)

Role of Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Committed Lender and each Borrower Party agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit 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 the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Related Party nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be liable to any Committed Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Committed 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 related Request for Credit Extension. Each Borrower Party 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 each Borrower Party’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Related Party, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 2.08(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower Party may have a claim against the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Letter of Credit Issuer may be liable to such Borrower Party, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower Party which such Borrower Party proves were caused by the Letter of Credit Issuer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or the Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a 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 Letter of Credit Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (known as SWIFT) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(h)

Applicability of ISP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Letter of Credit Issuer and the applicable Borrower Party when a Letter of Credit is issued the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be responsible to the Borrower Parties for, and Letter of Credit Issuer’s rights and remedies against any Borrower Party shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the Letter of Credit Issuer that is required under any law or order, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where Letter of Credit Issuer or the beneficiary is located, or that is recognized as an acceptable practice for issuers of Letters of Credit under 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.

. In consideration of Lenders’ agreement to advance funds to a Qualified Borrower hereunder, to cause Letters of Credit to be issued for the account of a Qualified Borrower, and to accept Borrower’s guaranty pursuant to Section 6, Borrower hereby authorizes, empowers, and directs Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Funding Agents and the Lenders (each a “Guaranteed Party”), to disburse directly to the applicable Guaranteed Party, with notice to Borrower, in Same Day Funds an amount equal to the amount due and owing under Section 6, together with all interest, costs, expenses and fees due to the applicable Guaranteed Party pursuant thereto in the event (i)

Administrative Agent shall have not received payment from such Qualified Borrower of its Obligations when due or (ii) any Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(a), 11.01(g) or 11.01(h) occurs with respect to such Qualified Borrower. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower of any disbursement made to the Guaranteed Parties pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of the disbursement. Any such disbursement made by Administrative Agent to the Guaranteed Parties shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan, and Borrower shall be deemed to have given to Administrative Agent, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.02(a), a Loan Notice with respect thereto. Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on the Guaranteed Parties as to the amount due to the Guaranteed Parties under Section 6.

. The proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be used solely for the purposes permitted under the Operating Agreement and the Constituent Documents of the Borrower Parties. None of the Lenders, Agents, or Administrative Agent shall have any liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever with respect to any Borrower Party’s use of the proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and none of the Letter of Credit Issuer, Lenders, Agents, or Administrative Agent shall be obligated to determine whether or not any Borrower Party’s use of the proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit are for purposes permitted above. Nothing, including, without limitation, any Borrowing, any continuation or conversion thereof in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement, or any issuance of any Letter of Credit, or acceptance of any other document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by any Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender or Administrative Agent as to whether any investment by Borrower is permitted by the terms of the Operating Agreement or the Constituent Documents of any Borrower Party.

. In addition to the payments provided for in Section 3 and subject to Section 2.15(a)(iii), Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Committed Lender, an unused commitment fee which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the product of: (i) the average daily difference during the immediately preceding calendar quarter between (A) such Committed Lender’s Commitment and (B) such Committed Lender’s Lender Group’s outstanding Principal Obligation during such calendar quarter (such product the “Unused Commitment”), and (ii) the rate equal to 0.25% per annum. The unused commitment fee shall be payable in arrears on the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter and on the Maturity Date for the period from the end of the preceding calendar quarter until the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding anything herein the contrary, Swingline Loans will not be deemed to be utilization for purposes of calculating the unused commitment fees above. Borrower and Committed Lenders acknowledge and agree that the unused commitment fees payable hereunder are bona fide unused commitment fees and are intended as reasonable compensation to Committed Lenders for committing to make funds available to Borrower as described herein and for no other purposes and shall be due and payable whether or not the conditions precedent in Section 7.02 are satisfied.

annum times the daily amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit; provided, however that 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 or other credit support arrangements satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.08 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Repayment Percentages (without giving effect to the Letter of Credit Liability held by each Defaulting Lender), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Letter of Credit Issuer for its own account. Such fee shall be: (i) due and payable in quarterly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter, commencing on the first such date to occur after the issuance of any Letter of Credit, on the Maturity Date, and thereafter (if applicable) on demand; and (ii) computed quarterly in arrears. 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 1.05. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin for Letters of Credit during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin for Letters of Credit separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin for Letters of Credit was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, such fee shall accrue at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Letters of Credit plus two percent (2%).

(b)

Fronting Fee and Administrative Charges. The Borrower Party that is the applicant for a Letter of Credit shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer, for its own account, in consideration of the issuance and fronting of Letters of Credit, a fronting fee with respect to each such Letter of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum, computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter, commencing on the first such date to occur after the issuance of any Letter of Credit, on the Maturity Date and thereafter (if applicable) 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 1.05. In addition, such Borrower Party shall pay directly to the Letter of Credit Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, provided that such fees shall not exceed five hundred dollars ($500), and other standard costs and charges of the Letter of Credit 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.

. All computations of interest with respect to the Base Rate (including for Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest (including for Daily SOFR Loans) shall be made on the basis of a three hundred sixty (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 three hundred sixty-five

(365) day year) or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan from and including the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the 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 3.03, bear interest for one (1) day.

(a)

Certain Credit Support Events. If: (i) the Letter of Credit Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing that has not been repaid in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement; (ii) as of the Letter of Credit Collateralization Date, any Letter of Credit Liability for any reason remains outstanding; (iii) the applicable Borrower Party shall be required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 11.02; or (iv) there shall exist a Defaulting Lender; Borrower shall immediately (in the case of clause (iii) above) or within one (1) Business Day (in all other cases) following any request by Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer, provide Cash Collateral in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Collateral Amount (determined in the case of Cash Collateral provided pursuant to clause (iv) above after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). In addition, (x) Section

3.04 sets forth certain additional requirements for the delivery of Cash Collateral or other credit support in certain circumstances, and (y) Section 2.07 contemplates the delivery of Cash Collateral or other credit support in connection with the issuance of Swingline Loans.

(b)

Grant of Security Interest. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all cash, including all deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property provided as Cash 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(d). If at any time Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, 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. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Natixis (or with respect to any Letter of Credit, the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer if requested thereby). Borrower shall pay on demand therefor from time to time all customary account opening, activity and other administrative fees and charges (provided that such administrative fees and charges shall not exceed one thousand dollars ($1,000) annually) in connection with the maintenance and disbursement of Cash Collateral.

(c)

Letters of Credit Sublimit. If Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Parties at any time that the Letter of Credit Liability at such time exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then the Borrower Party having applied for such Letter of Credit shall Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Liability in an amount equal to the amount by which Letter of Credit Liability exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit: (A) promptly upon receipt of such notice (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter), with proceeds from a Borrowing hereunder, up to the Available Commitment at such time; and (B) to the extent that for any reason such Borrowing is not available in an amount sufficient to fully Cash Collateralize such amount of the Letter of Credit Liability, within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt of such

notice, with the proceeds of a Capital Call (and Borrower shall issue such Capital Call Notices during such time, and shall Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit Liability immediately after the Capital Contributions relating to such Capital Call are received).

(e)

Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following: (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or 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 13.11(b)(vii))); or (ii) the good faith determination by Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however: (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Borrower Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.14 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 11.05); and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Letter of Credit Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

(ii)

Defaulting Lender Applications. 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 Section 11 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.02, shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent in the following order: (a) to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section

2.14; (b) as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Syndicated Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Credit Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; (c) if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be

held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to: (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Credit Agreement; and (y) Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Credit Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.14; (d) to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; (e) so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, 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 Credit Agreement; and (f) 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 were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Syndicated Loans of, and Letter of Credit Liability owed to, all Lender Groups of Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Repayment Percentage (without giving effect to the Principal Obligation of such Defaulting Lender) prior to being applied to the payment of any Syndicated Loans of, or Letter of Credit Liability owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Syndicated Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Liability and Swingline Loans are held by the Committed Lenders in accordance with each such Committed Lender’s Repayment Percentage (without giving effect to the Principal Obligation held by such Defaulting Lender) without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv). 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.

(A) or 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 Letter of Credit Liability or

Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below; (y) pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer and Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Letter of Credit Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender; and (z) Borrower shall not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)

Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liability and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among each Non-Defaulting Lender (based on its Committed Lender Percentage (without giving effect to the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender)) calculated as the product of its Lender Group’s Lender Group Percentage (without giving effect to the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender) multiplied by the principal amount of such participation, but only to the extent that: (x) the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 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 (y) such reallocation does not cause (i) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure and Letter of Credit Liability of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment or (ii) the Revolving Credit Exposure and Letter of Credit Liability of any Lender Group to exceed the aggregate Commitments of its Non-Defaulting Lenders. Subject to Section 13.28, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Committed 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.

(b)

Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer agree in writing that a Committed Lender is no longer 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 Committed Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion (not otherwise funded by its Lender Group) of outstanding Syndicated Loans of the other Lender Groups or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Syndicated Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held among the Lender Groups (and the Committed Lenders therein) in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.172.15(a)(viv), whereupon such Committed 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 Committed 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 Committed Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Committed Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

. So long as no (x) Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Stated Maturity Date and (y) the representations and warranties contained in Section 8 or in any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on, and as of, the Stated Maturity Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.16, the representations and warranties contained in Section 8.06 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 9.01, Borrower may extend the Stated Maturity Date to a Business Day that is not later than 364 days after the then-effective Stated Maturity Date, no more than one time, upon (the date such conditions are satisfied, the “Facility Extension Effective Date”): (a) delivery of a Facility Extension Request to Administrative Agent not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date then in effect; and (b) payment to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders of a facility extension fee equal to twenty-five basis points on the then-existing aggregate Commitments of the Lenders (i.e., 0.25% times the then-existing aggregate Commitments of the Lenders). Administrative Agent agrees to deliver written confirmation of any extension to the Borrower.

On the Facility Extension Effective Date, Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on such date (together with all accrued interest thereon and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4.05) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages of the respective Lenders effective as of such date. This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 13.01 or 13.03 to the contrary.

reasonably require to establish the identities of and verify the authority and capacity of each Responsible Officer thereof authorized to act as a Responsible Officer in connection with the requested increase, this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower Party is a party; and (B) a favorable opinion of counsel to the Borrower Parties, covering such matters relating to the requested increase and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and the Borrower Parties hereby request that such counsel deliver such opinion; provided, however, Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, waive or deem satisfied any of the foregoing conditions in this Section 2.17(a)(iii) at any time and from time to time;

(B) each Subsequent Committed Lender to execute a joinder to this Credit Agreement in the form of Exhibit K.

Increasing Committed Lender without such Committed Lender’s consent; and (iii) except for an increase in connection with Section 2.17, no increase will be permitted after Borrower has decreased the Maximum Commitment under Section 3.06.

(b)

Any Funding Agent, on behalf of any Lender member of its Lender Group, may request that the Syndicated Loans to be made by such Lender Group to the Borrower shall be evidenced by promissory notes. Swingline Loans and Qualified Borrower obligations shall not be evidenced by separate promissory notes. If so requested, the Borrower shall issue such Notes. Each such Note shall: (a) be payable to the Funding Agent for such Lender Group or such other administrator or trustee for the Lender member of such Lender Group as such Funding Agent may designate (or, if requested by such Funding Agent, to such Funding Agent and its registered assigns); (b) bear interest in accordance with the provisions hereof; (c) be in the form of Exhibit B, attached hereto (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith); and (d) be made by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees, from time to time, upon the request of Administrative Agent or any applicable Funding Agent, to reissue new Notes, in accordance with the terms and in the form heretofore provided, to any Committed Lender or Conduit Lender and to any Assignee of such Lender in accordance with Section 13.12, in substitution for the Notes previously issued by the Borrower to the Funding Agent or other party, as appropriate and in accordance herewith for the affected Lender, and such previously issued Notes shall be returned to the Borrower marked “cancelled”.

Party received the benefit of such Borrowing as of such date and even if such Borrowing is held in escrow pursuant to the terms of any escrow arrangement or agreement. When a Borrowing is disbursed by wire transfer pursuant to instructions received from a Borrower Party, then such Borrowing shall be considered made at the time of the transmission of the wire, in accordance with the Loan Notice, rather than the time of receipt thereof by the receiving bank. With regard to the repayment of the Loans, interest shall continue to accrue on any amount repaid until such time as the repayment has been received in federal or other Same Day Funds by Administrative Agent.

(b)

Interest Payment Dates. Except with respect to Swingline Loans, which are addressed by Section 2.07(a) accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations, including any interest payable on any Loan prepaid pursuant to Section 3.05, shall be due and payable: (i) in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (for the immediately preceding calendar monthfiscal quarter then ended with respect to Base Rate Loans, for the Interest Period then ended with respect to Term SOFR Loans and for all accrued and unpaid interest to date with respect to CP Rate Loans) and on the Maturity Date; (ii) on each other date of any reduction of the Principal Obligations hereunder (other than a voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section 3.05); and (iii) with respect to any obligation of a Borrower Party hereunder on which such Borrower Party is in default, at any time and from time to time following such default upon demand by Administrative Agent. 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.

p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower Parties hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an

Alternative Currency shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Credit Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. Funds received by Administrative Agent: (i) after 1:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be treated for all purposes as having been received by Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next following receipt of such funds and any applicable interest or fees shall continue to accrue. Except as provided in Section 13.11(c) hereof, and except for Swingline Loans repaid to the Swingline Lender before the provisions of Section 2.07(d)(i) become applicable, each Lender shall be entitled to receive its applicable share of each payment received by Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of Lenders on the Obligations. Each payment received by Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of a Lender shall be promptly distributed by Administrative Agent to the appropriate Funding Agent. If any payment to be made by any Borrower 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. Each Funding Agent agrees to use reasonable efforts to apply the amounts received in respect of such repayments to the outstanding Loans of the Lenders members of its Lender Group so as to minimize broken funding payments payable pursuant to Section 4.05.

(i)

Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Funding Agent prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency RateTerm SOFR Loans, Daily SOFR Loans or CP Rate Loan (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 Group will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender Group’s share of such Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender Group has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.04 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender Group has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.04) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower Party a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender Group has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then the Committed Lenders in such Lender Group and the applicable Borrower Party severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower Party to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at: (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Committed Lender, the Overnight Rategreater of the Federal Funds 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 a Borrower Party, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that if funds are not available to such Borrower Party in the Collateral Account to make payment on demand, to the extent

that it is necessary for Borrower to issue Capital Call Notices to fund such required payment, such payment shall be made within fifteen (15) Business Days after Administrative Agent’s demand (and, in any event, Borrower shall issue such Capital Call Notices and shall make such payment promptly after the related Capital Contributions are received). If any Borrower Party and such Committed Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower Party the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower Party for such period. If such Committed Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Committed Lender’s Syndicated Loan included in such Borrowing as of the date of such Borrowing. Any payment by a Borrower Party shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower Party may have against a Committed Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.

(ii)

Payments by Borrower Parties; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower Party prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Funding Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder that such Borrower Party will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower Party has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Funding Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower Party has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Committed Lenders or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Funding Agent’s Lender Group or the Letter of Credit Issuer, in Same Day 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 Overnight Rategreater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

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

Borrower Party shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, an amount sufficient that, after giving effect to such prepayment and any Capital Calls to fund such prepayment, the Principal Obligation would no longer exceed the Available Commitment (except to the extent any Swingline Loan is outstanding and the applicable Borrower Party elects to pay all or any portion of such excess with respect to any Swingline Loan, in which case such payment shall be for the benefit of Swingline Lender) (such amount, “Required Payment”), in Same Day Funds: (a) promptly on demand (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after such demand), to the extent such funds are available in the Collateral Account; and (b) within fifteen (15) Business Days of demand to the extent that it is necessary for Borrower to issue Capital Call Notices to fund such Required Payment (and Borrower shall issue such Capital Call Notices during such time and shall pay such Required Payment promptly after the Capital Contributions relating to such Capital Call Notice are received), together with all funds then on deposit in the Collateral Account equal the Required Payment to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.04(a).

(b)

Excess Letters of Credit Outstanding. To the extent that any excess calculated pursuant to Section 3.04(a) is attributable to undrawn Letters of Credit, then the applicable Borrower Party may Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Liability in the amount of such excess, when required pursuant to the terms of Section 3.04(a). To the extent that the Letter of Credit Liability exceeds the Available Commitment, the applicable Borrower Parties shall Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit Liability in an amount equal to the excess of the Letter of Credit Liability over the Available Commitment. Unless otherwise required by law, upon: (A) a change in circumstances such that such amount no longer remains outstanding; or (B) the full and final payment of the Obligations, Administrative Agent shall return to the applicable Borrower Party any remaining Cash Collateral as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event within two (2) Business Days.

. Any Borrower Party may, upon delivery of a Prepayment 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: (a) with respect to Swingline Loans, the principal of any Swingline Loan may be prepaid by 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day, and any prepayment not received by 11:00 a.m. on such Business Day shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day; and (b) with respect to any other Loan, such noticePrepayment Notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than:

(A) 11:00 a.m. (i) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of anyTerm SOFR Loans accruing interest at the Eurocurrency Rate, Floating LIBOR Rate, Daily SOFR Loans or the CP Rate; and

(ii) five (5) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies Loans; and (B) 11:00 a.m. (i) one (1) Business DaysDay prior to any date of prepayment of any Loans accruing interest at the Base Rate Loans; and (iic) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such Prepayment Notice shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such prepayment, if applicable, the Type(s) of Syndicated Loans to be prepaid. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Funding Agent of its receipt of each such noticePrepayment Notice, and of the amount of its Lender Group’s Repayment Percentage of such prepayment. If such noticePrepayment Notice is given by a Borrower Party, such Borrower Party shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such noticePrepayment Notice shall be due

and payable on the date specified therein. With respect to any Loan prepaid pursuant to this Section 3.05, all accrued interest thereon shall be paid in accordance with Section 3.02(b) and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4 with respect thereto shall be promptly paid following receipt of an accurate and correct invoice for such amounts. Subject to Section 2.15, each such prepayment shall be applied to the Principal Obligation held by each Lender in accordance with its applicable Repayment Percentage.

. Borrower may, upon notice to the 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 the 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

$5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Maximum Commitment hereunder shall at no time equal an aggregate amount of less than $25,000,000, (iv) Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Principal Obligation would exceed the Available Commitments; and (v) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swingline Sublimit exceeds the amount of the aggregate Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit or Swingline Sublimit, as applicable, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Committed Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Committed Lender according to its pro rata share thereof. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

. Each Lender may: (a) designate the principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender as its Lending Office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan; and (b) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate as its Lending Office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any Base Rate Loan; and (c) change its Lending Office from time to time by notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower; provided that, in each case such designation does not impose any obligation to pay or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes. In such event, the Funding Agent for such Lender shall continue to hold the Note, if any, evidencing its Loans for the benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate. Each Committed Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment in any manner it deems appropriate, consistent with the provisions of Section 2.06, but for the purposes of this Credit Agreement such Committed Lender shall, regardless of such Committed Lender’s actual means of funding, be deemed to have funded its Commitment in accordance with the Interest Option selected from time to time by the Borrower Parties for such Borrowing period.

(ii)

If any applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then: (A) the applicable Withholding Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Withholding Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below; (B) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code; and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(iii)

If any applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by any applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then: (A) the applicable Withholding Agent, as required by such Law, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below; (B) the applicable Withholding Agent, to the extent required by such Law, 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 Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.01) payable or paid by such Recipient, 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, but excluding any penalties, interest, or expenses that are attributable to the bad faith, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of the Recipient. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation and basis such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Borrower Party by a Recipient (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(10) days after demand therefor: (A) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer (but only to the extent that any Borrower Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower Parties to do so); (B) Administrative Agent against any Taxes attributable to such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.11(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register; and (C) Administrative Agent against any Excluded Taxes attributable to Person, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent 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 as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent or the Borrower Parties shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.01(c)(ii).

taxing authorities of any jurisdiction or reasonably requested by a Borrower Party or Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower Party or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. A Liquidity Provider that is a Foreign Recipient shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Section 4.01 unless Borrower is notified of the Liquidity Agreement and consents to such benefits and such Liquidity Provider, for the benefit of the Borrower Parties, complies with this Section 4.01. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding three sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 4.01(e)(ii)(A), 4.01(e)(ii)(B) and 4.01(e)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense (provided that such Recipient’s internal costs of completing, executing or submitting such documentation shall not be considered to be material unreimbursed costs or expenses) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.

(1)

(C)

any Foreign Recipient 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 Recipient becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower Party or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)

Solely for

purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.

(f)

Treatment of Certain Refunds. 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 the Borrower Parties or with respect to which any Borrower Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.01, it shall pay to such Borrower Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower Party under this Section 4.01 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 Party, upon the request of such Recipient, agree to repay the amount paid over to any such Borrower Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to a Borrower Party pursuant to this subsection 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 shall not be construed to require the Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower Parties or any other Person.

Upon any such conversion, each such Borrower Party shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.

. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, until the Guaranteed Debt (other than any part of the Guaranteed Debt that represents contingent contractual indemnities) has been paid in full, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives all rights it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of any Secured Party) to seek contribution, indemnification, or any other form of reimbursement from any Qualified Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any obligations of any Qualified Borrower to Secured Parties, for any disbursement made by Borrower under or in connection with the obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Debt under this Section 6, Section 2.09 or otherwise.

. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 6 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by a Secured Party, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or dissolution of any Qualified Borrower, in each case as though such payment had not been made.

. The guarantees in this Section 6 are continuing guarantees, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Debt whenever arising.

Each Borrower Party has the requisite power and authority to own its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of the business conducted or the property owned or leased requires such qualification except where the failure to be so qualified to do business would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

. Each Borrower Party has the partnership, limited liability company or corporate power, as applicable, and requisite authority to execute, deliver, and perform their respective obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated in, this Credit Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents to be executed by it. Each Borrower Party is duly authorized to, and has taken all partnership, limited liability company and corporate action, as applicable, necessary to authorize each of them to execute, deliver, and perform their respective obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated in, this Credit Agreement, the Notes, and such other Loan Documents and are and will

continue to be duly authorized to perform their respective obligations under this Credit Agreement, the Notes, and such other Loan Documents.

. None of the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the Notes, or the other Loan Documents, the consummation of any of the transactions herein or therein contemplated, or the compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or with the terms and provisions thereof, will contravene or conflict with any provision of law, statute, or regulation to which any Borrower Party is subject, or any of the Constituent Documents of any Borrower Party, or any judgment, license, order, or permit applicable to any Borrower Party or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other agreement or instrument to which any Borrower Party is a party or by which any Borrower Party is bound, or to which any Borrower Party may be subject, nor will such execution, delivery, consummation or compliance result in the creation or imposition of a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of the properties or assets of any Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in each case except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval, authorization, or order of any court or Governmental Authority or material consent of any third party is required in connection with the execution and delivery, or performance, by any Borrower Party of the Loan Documents or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

. This Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party are the legal and binding obligations of each Borrower Party, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to Debtor Relief Laws and equitable principles.

. The Collateral Documents create, as security for the Obligations, valid and enforceable, exclusive, first priority security interests in and Liens on all of the Collateral in which any Borrower Party has any right, title or interest, in favor of Administrative Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties, subject to no other Liens (other than Permitted Liens), except as enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and equitable principles.

. Borrower has delivered to Administrative Agent (a) the most-recently available copies of the financial statements and reports described in Section 9.01, certified as true and correct by a Responsible Officer of Borrower; or (b) with respect to such requirement on the Closing Date, if such statements and reports are not then available, such information about the financial position of Borrower, if any, as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested.

. There is no material fact actually known to a Responsible Officer of a Borrower Party that any Borrower Party has not disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing (other than information of a general industry or economic nature) which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No information heretofore furnished by any Borrower Party in connection with, or pursuant to, this

Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (taken as a whole) contains any untrue statement of a material fact on the date as of which such information is stated or deemed stated that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

. Except as disclosed to the Administrative Agent in writing, no event has occurred and is continuing which constitutes an Event of Default or, to the knowledge of any Borrower Party, a Default.

. There are no actions, suits, investigations or legal, equitable, arbitration or administrative proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending, or to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of any Borrower Party, threatened, against any Borrower Party that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

. No changes to any Borrower Party have occurred since the date of the most recent audited financial statements of such Borrower Party delivered to Lenders which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

. To the extent that failure to do so would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all tax returns required to be filed by any Borrower Party in any jurisdiction have been filed, subject to any applicable extensions without penalty, and all Taxes shown thereon have been paid prior to the time that such Taxes could give rise to a Lien thereon, other than Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves have been established. There is no proposed Tax assessment against any Borrower Party (or any basis for such Tax assessment) which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

. The jurisdiction of formation of Borrower is Delaware, and the principal office, chief executive office and principal place of business of Borrower is at 200 Clarendon Street, 51st Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02116.

. (a) No Borrower Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has established, maintains, contributes to, or has any liability (contingent or otherwise) with respect to, any Plan; (b) the underlying assets of each Borrower Party do not constitute Plan Assets; and (c) assuming that no portion of the assets used by any Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents constitutes the assets of any “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to Title I of ERISA or a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code, none of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents constitutes a “non-exempt prohibited transaction” under Section 4975(c)(1)(A), (B), (C) or (D) of the Code or Section 406(a) of ERISA that could subject Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any tax, penalty, damages or any other claim or relief under the Code or ERISA.

. Each Borrower Party is, to the best of its knowledge, in compliance in all respect with all laws, rules, regulations, orders, and decrees which are applicable to such Borrower Party or its respective properties, except where non-compliance would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

. There are no Capital Call Notices outstanding except as otherwise disclosed to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof. Except as notified to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, no Investor is in material default under the Operating Agreement or its Subscription Agreement and Borrower has satisfied or will satisfy all conditions to its rights to make a Capital Call, including any and all conditions contained in its Constituent Documents or the Subscription Agreements.

No Borrower Party is required to be registered as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, but if the Borrower has elected to be regulated as a business development company under Section 54 of the Investment Company Act and to be subject to applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act, the Borrower is regulated as a business development

company under Section 54 of the Investment Company Act and subject to the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act.

. Except as notified to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement, no Responsible Officer of Borrower knows of any default or circumstance which with the passage of time and/or giving of notice would constitute a default under the Operating Agreement or the Subscription Agreements which would constitute a defense to the obligations of its Investors to make Capital Contributions to the Borrower in accordance with the Subscription Agreements or the Operating Agreement, and no Responsible Officer of Borrower has actual knowledge of any claims of offset or any other claims of any Investor against Borrower which would or could materially and adversely affect the obligations of such Investor to make Capital Contributions and fund Capital Calls in accordance with the Subscription Agreements (and any related Side Letters between the Investors and Borrower which have been provided to the Administrative Agent) or the Operating Agreement.

. To the extent required by law, each Borrower Party has policies and procedures in place which are reasonably designed to comply with all applicable United States anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including, without limitation, applicable provisions of the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (“Borrower KYC Compliance”) and Sanctions. On or prior to the Closing Date, each Investor has satisfied Borrower KYC Compliance.

. No Borrower Party, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of any such Borrower Party, any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or representative thereof, is an individual or entity currently the subject of any Sanctions and with which dealings are prohibited under such Sanctions, nor is any Borrower Party or any Subsidiary located, organized or resident in a Designated Jurisdiction.

. Borrower confirms that the Transactions are permitted under Section 4.3.1 of the Operating Agreement.

. Each Borrower Party and their respective Subsidiaries, and, to the knowledge of such Borrower Party, their respective directors, officers, employees and agents of each Borrower Party and their respective Subsidiaries, are in compliance with Anti-corruption Laws, in all material respects, and each

Borrower Party has instituted and maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure continued compliance therewith.

. The Initial Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Operating Agreement) occurred on April 13, 2018.

. So long as Lenders have any commitment to lend hereunder or to cause the issuance of any Letters of Credit hereunder or any Letter of Credit Liability exists, and until payment in full of the Notes and the Loans and all interest, fees, and other amounts (other than in respect of contingent indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made) then owing under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower Party, as applicable, agrees that, unless Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent in writing based upon the approval of the Required Lenders (unless the approval of Administrative Agent alone or a different number of Lenders is expressly permitted below):

. Each Borrower Party will pay and discharge all taxes, assessments, and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it, upon its income or profits, or upon any property belonging to it before delinquent, if such failure would have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that no Borrower Party shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, or levy if and so long as the amount, applicability, or validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and appropriate reserves therefor have been established.

. Each Borrower Party will preserve and maintain its existence. Each Borrower Party shall further preserve and maintain all of its rights, privileges, and franchises necessary to the normal conduct of its business and in accordance with all valid regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority the failure of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

. Each Borrower Party will furnish to Administrative Agent, promptly upon becoming aware of the existence of any condition or event which constitutes an Event of Default or a Default, a written notice specifying the nature and period of existence thereof and the action which the applicable Borrower Party is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. Each Borrower Party shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing upon becoming aware: (a) that any Investor has violated or breached any material term of the Operating Agreement or has become a Defaulting Investor; or (b) of the existence of any condition or event which, with the lapse of time or giving of notice or both, would cause an Investor to become a Defaulting Investor.

. Each Borrower Party will comply in all respects with all laws, rules, regulations, and all orders of any Governmental Authority, including without limitation, Environmental Laws and ERISA and Anti-corruption Laws, except where non-compliance would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Borrower Party will maintain insurance on its present and future properties, assets, and business against such casualties, risks, and contingencies, and in such types and amounts, as are customarily maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, the failure of which to maintain would have a Material Adverse Effect.

. Each Borrower Party will promptly obtain, from time to time at its own expense, all such governmental licenses, authorizations, consents, permits and approvals as may be required to enable such Borrower Party to comply in all material respects with their respective obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Subscription Agreements and their respective Constituent Documents.

. Each Borrower Party shall perform all such acts and execute all such documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to enable Secured Parties to report, file, and record every instrument that Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary in order to perfect and maintain Secured Parties’ liens and security interests in the Collateral and otherwise to preserve and protect the rights of Secured Parties.

Such Removal Notice shall be given to the Administrative Agent at least the same number of Business Days required for an optional prepayment hereunder prior to the proposed removal date contained in the Removal Notice and shall be accompanied by a Borrowing Base Certificate (completed and signed by a Responsible Officer).

No Borrower Party will take any action to dissolve or terminate such Borrower Party, including, without limitation, any action to Dispose of all or substantially all of the property of such Borrower Party.

. Without the approval of all Lenders, no Borrower Party will create or suffer to exist any Lien upon the Collateral, other than a first priority security interest in and upon the Collateral to Secured Parties and the other Permitted Liens.

With respect to any proposed amendment, modification or change to any Constituent Document, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such proposal. Administrative Agent shall determine, in its sole reasonable discretion (that is, the

determination of the other Lenders shall not be required) on Administrative Agent’s good faith belief, whether such proposed amendment, modification or change to such Constituent Document is a Material Amendment, and shall notify the Borrower of its determination within (a) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed prior to the Final Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Operating Agreement), five (5) Business Days, and (b) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed after the Final Closing Date, ten (10) Business Days of the date on which it is deemed to have received such notification pursuant to Section 13.07. If Administrative Agent determines that the proposed amendment is a Material Amendment, the approval of the Required Lenders and Administrative Agent will be required (unless the approval of all Lenders is required consistent with the terms of Section 13.01), and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such request for such approval, distributing, as appropriate, the proposed amendment and any other relevant information provided by any Borrower Party, and the Lenders shall be required to respond to such requests within ten (10) Business Days of such notice. If a Lender has not responded to such request for approval within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notice, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such proposed amendment. If Administrative Agent determines that the proposed amendment is not a Material Amendment, the applicable Borrower Party may make such amendment without the consent of Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of Administrative Agent or the Lenders, a Borrower Party may amend its Constituent Documents: (i) to admit new Investors to the extent permitted by this Credit Agreement;

(ii) to reflect transfers of interests permitted by this Credit Agreement; and (iii) to facilitate the

formation, operation and qualification of such Borrower Party as a RIC (to the extent not in conflict with the restrictions hereunder or otherwise materially adverse to the Lenders).

. Other than rights under the Operating Agreement permitting an Investor from opting out of particular Portfolio Assets, Borrower shall not: (a) without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), cancel, reduce, suspend or defer the Capital Commitment of any non-Borrowing Base Investor; and (b) without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent and all Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned): (i) cancel, reduce, suspend or defer the Capital Commitment of any Borrowing Base Investor; or (ii) excuse any Investor from or permit any Investor to defer any Capital Contribution, if the proceeds from the related Capital Call Notice are to be applied to the Obligations hereunder.

. (a) No Borrower Party nor any ERISA Affiliate shall establish, maintain, contribute to, or incur any liability (contingent or otherwise) with respect to, any Plan; (b) without the approval of all Lenders, no Borrower Party shall take any action that would cause its underlying assets to constitute Plan Assets; and (c) no Borrower Party, as applicable, shall change its Annual Valuation Period without giving prior written notice to Administrative Agent.

. Borrower shall not incur any Indebtedness (including the Obligations) in excess of the limitations on Indebtedness set forth in Section 4.3 of the Operating Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date (or as amended in accordance with Section 10.04). For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower or its Subsidiaries will be permitted to incur debt secured by its Portfolio Assets or other asset (other than the Collateral).

. No Borrower Party shall directly or, to the knowledge of its Responsible Officers, indirectly permit the proceeds of any Loan: (a) to be lent, contributed or otherwise made available to fund any activity or business in any Designated Jurisdiction to the extent in violation of Sanctions; (b) to fund any activity or business of any Sanctioned Person or any Person located, organized, formed, incorporated or residing in any Designated Jurisdiction or who is the subject of any Sanctions, to the extent in violation of Sanctions; or (c) in any other manner that will result in any material violation by any Person (including any Lender or Administrative Agent) of any Sanctions or Anti-corruption Laws, and no Borrower Party shall breach the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.24.

. No Borrower Party shall engage in any material line of business substantially different from those lines of business conducted by such Borrower Party and its Subsidiaries on the date hereof or any business substantially related or incidental thereto unless such engagement in such line of business is in compliance with the Operating Agreement.

. An “Event of Default” shall exist if any one or more of the following events (herein collectively called “Events of Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(b)

any representation or warranty made or deemed made by any Borrower Party under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed by any of them, or in any certificate or statement furnished or made to Lenders or any of them by a Borrower Party pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or with the Loans, shall prove to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect as of the date on which such representation or warranty is made or deemed made (except that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of an earlier date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and the adverse effect of the failure of such representation or warranty shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days after the earlier of (i) written notice thereof if delivered to the Borrower by

Administrative Agent or (ii) a Responsible Officer of the Borrower obtains actual knowledge thereof;

10.09, 10.10 or 10.11), or of the covenants or agreements of a Borrower Party contained in any other Loan Documents executed by such Person, and such default shall continue uncured to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been given by Administrative Agent to such Borrower Party provided that such thirty (30)-day cure period shall not apply respecting covenants of Borrower Parties relating to statements, certificates and notices to be given by a Borrower Party, but a fifteen (15)-day grace period (or, in the case of Section 10.05(d) (other than clause (x) thereof), a five (5)-day grace period) shall apply;

10.05(a), 10.05(c), clause (x) of Section 10.05(d), 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09, 10.10 or 10.11;

(e)

other than (i) in compliance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, or (ii) as a result of any action or inaction by Administrative Agent or other Secured Party, any of the Loan Documents executed by a Borrower Party shall cease, in whole or in material part, to be legal, valid and binding agreements enforceable (subject to Debtor Relief Laws and equitable principles) against such Borrower Party in accordance with the terms thereof or shall in any way be terminated or become or be declared ineffective or inoperative or shall in any way whatsoever cease to give or provide the respective liens, security interest, rights, titles, interest, remedies, powers, or privileges intended to be created thereby, except any release or termination pursuant to the terms of such Loan Document;

Borrower Party or appointing a receiver, custodian, trustee, intervenor, liquidator, administrator or similar entity of such Person, or of all or substantially all of its assets;

. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Administrative Agent may, and, upon the direction of the Required Lenders, shall: (a) suspend the Commitments of Lenders and any obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions or Swingline Lender to advance Swingline Loans until such Event of Default is cured; (b) terminate the Commitment of Lenders and any obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions or Swingline Lender to advance Swingline Loans hereunder; (c) reduce the aggregate Commitments to an amount equal to the aggregate Loans and all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit of the Borrower Parties; (d) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Obligations, 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 (including the liability to fund the Letter of Credit Liability hereunder), whereupon the same shall forthwith become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind all of which each Borrower Party hereby expressly waives, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; (e) require that each Borrower Party Cash Collateralize its respective Letter of Credit Liability (in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount with respect thereto); (f) exercise any right, privilege, or power set forth in Section 5.02, including, but not limited to, the initiation of Capital Call Notices of the Capital Commitments; or (g) without notice of default or demand, pursue and enforce any of Administrative Agent’s or any or all of the Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, or otherwise provided under or pursuant to any applicable law or agreement; provided, however, that if any Event of Default specified in Section 11.01(g) or Section 11.01(h) shall occur, the obligation of each Committed Lender to make Syndicated Loans, the Swingline Lender to make Swingline Loans and any obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer 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 Letter of Credit Liability as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without any further action by Administrative Agent or Lenders, or any of them, and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of which each Borrower Party hereby expressly waives.

(a)

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, none of Administrative Agent, any Lender or other Secured Party may issue funding notices to any Investor or exercise any other remedy to which it may be otherwise entitled under this Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity with respect to such Event of Default unless Administrative Agent shall have given the Borrower Parties three (3) Business Days written notice of its intention to exercise such remedies (provided that, no such notice is required to the extent the Event of Default arises from the failure of Borrower Parties to make a Capital Call or make a payment following a Capital Call), in each case, required pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents. If, at any time prior to or during such three (3) Business Day notice period, the Borrower Parties shall, on no more than one occasion prior to the Maturity Date, make a Capital Call on the Unfunded Commitments of the Investors to repay the outstanding Obligations within the period ending fifteen (15) Business Days from the end of the initial three (3) Business Day notice period, sufficient (together with amounts on deposit in or credited to the Collateral Account) to cure each such Event of Default (to the extent such Event of Default may be cured via repayment) or repay the outstanding Obligations (and Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Liability) in full, as applicable, then Administrative Agent, the Lenders and other Secured Parties may not exercise any such remedy until the expiration of the period ending fifteen (15) Business Days from the end of the initial three (3) Business Day notice period, provided that nothing in this Section 11.03(a) shall prohibit Administrative Agent, any Lender or other Secured Party from (i) asserting exclusive control of the Collateral Account, (ii) taking any such actions as may be required to protect their rights in a bankruptcy proceeding, or (iii) after the application of the proceeds received in response to any such Capital Call, in the event such Event of Default or another Event of Default is continuing, accelerating the Obligations or terminating the Commitments; provided, further, that to the extent that (A) the Borrower does not make such Capital Call or (B) the application of the proceeds of any such Capital Call are not sufficient (together with amounts on deposit in or credited to the Collateral Account) to cure such Event of Default or repay the outstanding Obligations (and Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Liability) in full, as applicable, then, so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with the terms hereof, issue a Capital Call in an amount sufficient (together with amounts on deposit in or credited to the Collateral Account) to cure such Event of Default (to the extent such Event of Default may be cured via repayment) or repay the outstanding Obligations (and Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Liability) in full, as applicable, or exercise any other remedy with respect to the Collateral.

(b)

In the event that Administrative Agent elects to notify the Investors to make Capital Contributions in respect of their Unfunded Commitments, then Administrative Agent shall not request any individual Investor to fund an amount exceeding such Investor’s pro-rata share of the Obligations (based on the proportion of such Investor’s Unfunded Commitment to the aggregate Unfunded Commitments of all Investors other than Defaulting Investors) without first making best efforts (consistent with the terms of the Constituent Documents and applicable Law) to issue a Capital Call (which may be issued by Borrower or Administrative Agent) to each Investor for its pro-rata share of the Obligations and waiting fifteen (15) Business Days following such Capital Call prior to initiating further remedies. Further, without the prior written consent of Borrower, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender may contact any Investor, other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent otherwise permitted

hereunder, to submit a Capital Call Notice or otherwise exercise remedies in connection therewith.

. Should any Borrower Party fail to perform any covenant, duty, or agreement contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, and such failure continues beyond any applicable cure period, Administrative Agent may (subject to Section 10.03), but shall not be obligated to, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty, or agreement on behalf of such Person. In such event, each Borrower Party shall, at the request of Administrative Agent promptly pay any reasonable amount expended by Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood that neither any of the Agents nor any of the other Secured Parties assume any liability or responsibility for the performance of any duties of any Borrower Party, or any related Person hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or other control over the management and affairs of any Borrower Party, or any related Person, nor by any such action shall any of the Agents or other Secured Parties be deemed to create a partnership arrangement with any Borrower Party or any related Person.

. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 11.02 (or after the Swingline Loans and Syndicated Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and Letter of Credit Liabilities have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 11.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.15, be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order: (a) 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 Section 4) payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; (b) 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, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer and amounts payable under Section 4), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them; (c) to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, L/C Borrowings and other Obligations, ratably among the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) payable to them; (d) to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and L/C Borrowings, ratably among the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (d) held by them; (e) to Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of the Letter of Credit Liability comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by

Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.08 and 2.15; and (f) the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15, amount used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause (e) above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such 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, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

. Each Lender (including any Person that is an assignee, participant, secured party or other transferee with respect to the interest of such Lender in any Principal Obligation or otherwise under this Credit Agreement), Swingline Lenders and the Letter of Credit Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints each Agent (other than a Funding Agent for a different Lender Group) to act on its behalf hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes each Agent (other than a Funding Agent for a different Lender Group) to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except for provisions of this Section 12 expressly granting rights to the Borrower Parties, the provisions of this Section 12 are solely for the benefit of Agents, the Lenders, Swingline Lenders and the Letter of Credit Issuer, and no Borrower Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other 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.

. 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 as a Lender. 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 the Borrower Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

(ii)

shall 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 such 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 no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose any 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 affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

13.01 as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary); or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment, no Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default (except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders) unless and until notice describing the same is given in writing to such Agent by Borrower or a Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer.

(i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Credit 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 Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document; or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 7 or elsewhere herein, other than, in the case of Administrative Agent, to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it.

(d)

Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility for, nor shall Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Term SOFR Rate, Daily Simple SOFR or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate or with respect to any comparable orthereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or

liquidity as, the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Term SOFR Rate, Daily Simple SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities that affect any reference rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto(including, without limitation, any Benchmark Replacement) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to Borrower. Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Benchmark Replacement) (or any component of any of the foregoing), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or other action or omission related to or affecting the selection, determination, or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

. Each Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and Lender 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. Each 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, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit 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 Borrower), 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.

. Each 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 such Agent. Each 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 Section 12 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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 an Agent. No Agent shall 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 such Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

(a)

Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Borrower Parties. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (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, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(c)

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable): (i) 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 the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed); and (ii) 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 the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. 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 4.01(g) 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 12.06). 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 Section 12.06 and Section

13.06 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

12.06

shall also constitute its resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer and Swingline Lender. If Natixis resigns as Letter of Credit Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer and all Letter of Credit Liability with respect thereto, including the right to require the Committed Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.08(c). If Natixis resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all of the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require Committed Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.07(c). In the event of any such resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Committed Lenders (subject to the consent of such Committed Lender in its sole discretion) a successor Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Committed Lender other than a Defaulting Lender); provided, however, that no failure by Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Natixis as Letter of Credit Issuer. Upon the appointment by Borrower of a successor Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder:

(i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges

and duties of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable; (ii) the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the successor Letter of Credit 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 satisfactory to the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

. Each Lender, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any 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 this Credit Agreement. Each Lender, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any 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 Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers or other agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as an Agent, or a Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder.

. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Liability 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 Borrower Parties) 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, Letter of Credit Liability 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 Secured Parties, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 2.12 and otherwise hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit 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 Secured Parties, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer, 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 hereunder.

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

. Without limiting the provisions of Section 12.09, Secured Parties, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document:

(a) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit prior to draws thereon (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have been made); (b) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document; or (c) subject to Section 13.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 12.10.

(a)

If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party, such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer (any such Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf), provided such notice is delivered to the Payment Recipient within 60 days of the subject payment (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Overnight Rate/Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)

Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.11(b).

(d)

In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer at any time, (i) such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Letter of Credit Issuer shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Credit Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Letter of Credit Issuer and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Letter of Credit Issuer or Secured Party

under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

. Neither this Credit Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any of the terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated, other than in accordance with its terms, unless such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination is in writing and signed by Required Lenders (and Administrative Agent) or Administrative Agent (based upon the approval of Required Lenders), on the one hand, and Borrower on the other hand; provided that, if this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document specifically provides that the terms thereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated with the approval of Administrative Agent, acting alone, or all Lenders, then such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination must be signed by Administrative Agent or all Lenders, as applicable, on the one hand, and Borrower on the other hand; provided, further, that no such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination shall, without the consent of Administrative Agent and:

Rate) (including, without limitation, pursuant to a revision to the definition of Applicable Margin) or L/C Borrowing, or reduce any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or alter the computation of Letter of Credit Fees; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of Default Rate or to waive any obligation of Borrower to pay interest or Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate;

(xl) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of “Required Lenders” (or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to amend, waive or modify any rights hereunder or otherwise make any determination or grant any consent hereunder) or the definition of any other defined terms used in the definition of “Required Lenders” in a manner which would effectively reduce the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to amend, waive or modify any rights hereunder or otherwise make any determination or grant any consent hereunder;

(xli) amend the definition of “Responsible Party”; (xlii) amend the definition of “Returned Capital”; (xliii) amend the definition of “Sponsor”;

(xlv) amend the definition of “Under Common Control”, “Control” or “Controlled By”;

(xlvi) amend the definition of “Under Common Control”; (xlvii) amend the definition of “Unfunded Commitment”;

(xlix) consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Loan Documents;

(l) amend, waive, or in any way modify or suspend any provision regarding application of payments of the Obligations to Lenders;

(lii) alter the pro rata or ratable treatment of the Lenders under this Credit Agreement or the obligations of the Lender Groups to obtain participations in Swingline Loans in accordance with the Lender Groups’ Applicable Percentage in accordance with Section 2.07; or

(liii) release Borrower from its obligations under Section 6 with respect to any Qualified Borrower.

Notwithstanding the above: (A) no provisions of Section 12 may be amended or modified without the consent of Administrative Agent; (B) no provisions of Section 2.08 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer; (C) no provisions of Section 2.07 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Swingline Lender; and (D) Sections 9 and 10 specify the

requirements for waivers of the affirmative covenants and negative covenants listed therein, and any amendment to any provision of Section 9 or 10 shall require the consent of the Lenders that are specified therein as required for a waiver thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; and (2) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Borrower Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. Administrative Agent may, after consultation with Borrower, agree to the modification of any term of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to correct any printing, stenographic or clerical errors or omissions that are inconsistent with the terms hereof.

Administrative Agent agrees that it will promptly notify the Funding Agents (who will in turn promptly notify the Lenders in its Lender Group) of any proposed modification or amendment to any Loan Document, and deliver drafts of such proposed modification or amendment to the Funding Agents (who will in turn promptly deliver to the Lenders in its Lender Group), prior to the effectiveness of such proposed modification or amendment. If Administrative Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights covered by this Credit Agreement, and such Lender shall respond to such request within ten (10) Business Days.

. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time (but subject to Section 11.03), 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 (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower Party against any and all of the Obligations of such Borrower Party now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document owing to such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent, such Lender, Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations of such Borrower Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit 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: (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section

2.15 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, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and the Committed Lenders; and (b) such 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, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 13.02 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender, Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to notify the applicable Borrower Party and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application made by such Person, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

. If any Lender Group shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Syndicated Loans made by it, or the participations in the Letter of Credit Liability or in Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender Group receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Syndicated Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its Applicable Percentage thereof, then the Funding Agent of such Lender Group receiving such greater proportion shall:

(x) any payment made by or on behalf of any Borrower Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Credit Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender); or (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.13; or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Syndicated Loans or subparticipations in the Letter of Credit Liability or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower (as to which the provisions of this Section 13.03 shall apply).

Each Borrower Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Committed Lender or any Lender Group acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Committed Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower Party in the amount of such participation.

. To the extent that any Borrower Party makes a payment to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent 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 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 severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the OvernightFederal Funds Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment.

. No failure by any Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender or Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrower Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at Law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.02 for the benefit of all Lenders, Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit: (a) Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; (b) the Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 13.02 (subject to the terms of Section 11.03 and Section 13.03); or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Borrower Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; then: (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.02; and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 13.03, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including all Attorney Costs reasonably and actually incurred in connection with the foregoing; (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder; all fees and expenses not to exceed $25,000 in the aggregate charged by the Rating Agencies in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, fees and expenses incurred in connection with seeking an explicit rating of the Loans, regardless of whether or not such explicit rating is able to be issued; and (iii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by Agents and any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 13.06; or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all out of pocket expenses actually incurred during any “workout”, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit, including all Attorney Costs actually incurred in connection with the foregoing.

(b)

Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent and each Related Party thereof, and each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys in fact (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including Borrower or any other Borrower Party) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of:

(i) the execution or delivery of this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Letter of Credit Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit); or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower or any other Borrower Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses: (A) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee; or (B) result from a claim brought by Borrower or any other Borrower Party against an Indemnitee for breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if Borrower or such Borrower Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (C) result from any settlement by any Indemnitee of any claim or threatened claim that is otherwise subject to indemnification under this Section 13.06(b) unless Borrower has consented in writing to such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; or (D) to the extent resulting from any dispute among Indemnitees (or their Related Parties); provided that the Administrative Agent to the extent fulfilling its role as an agent under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents in its capacity as such, shall remain indemnified. For avoidance of doubt, this Section 13.06(b) shall not apply with respect to

Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

13.06 to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Committed Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Committed Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Letter of Credit Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Committed Lenders under this subsection (c) are several.

(d)

Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(ii)

Any party may change its address for purposes of this Credit Agreement by giving notice of such change to the other parties pursuant to this Section 13.07.

Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender or Borrower may, each in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

(d)

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING

SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY PARTY HERETO MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST SUCH PARTY OR ITS RESPECTIVE PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO: (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; AND (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.09.

. If any provision of this Credit Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Credit Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable and this Credit Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Credit Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Credit Agreement, unless such continued effectiveness of this Credit Agreement, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and intentions of the parties as expressed herein. If any provision of this Credit Agreement shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any provision of any of the other Loan Documents, then the terms, conditions and provisions of this Credit Agreement shall prevail. Without limiting the

foregoing provisions of this Section 13.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Credit Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

13.11 and Section 13.12; (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause

(f) of this Section 13.11; or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment or grant of a security interest subject to the restrictions of clause (g) of this Section 13.11 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in clause (f) of this Section 13.11, and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement.

13.11 in the aggregate, or, in the case of an assignment to a Committed Lender, an Affiliate of a Committed Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(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 Assignee (or to an 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.

(iii)

Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except: (A) as provided in the definition of “Eligible Assignee”; (B) the consent of each Letter of Credit Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required for any assignment (other than to a Liquidity Provider) that increases the obligation of the Assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and (C) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be required for any assignment (other than to a Liquidity Provider) that increases the obligation of the Assignee to participate in exposure under a Swingline Loan (whether or not then outstanding). For the avoidance of doubt, no consent shall be required for any assignment from a Conduit Lender to a Conduit Assignee or a Liquidity Provider.

$3,500 (except in the case of a transfer at the demand of Borrower under Section 13.13, in which case either Borrower or the transferee Lender shall pay such fee); provided, however, that the 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 the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

(A) to a Borrower Party or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Borrower Party; (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 natural person; (D) to any Person that is not a Qualified Purchaser; or (E) to any Person that is not an Eligible Assignee.

parties to such 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 share of Syndicated Loans previously requested but not funded by such Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to: (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its applicable share of all Syndicated Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans 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 Credit Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c)

Lender Group Joinder Agreement. Upon the Borrower’s request, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, an additional Lender Group may be added to this Credit Agreement at any time by the execution and delivery of a Lender Group Joinder Agreement by the members of such proposed additional Lender Group, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the Lenders, which execution and delivery shall not be unreasonably refused by such parties. Upon receipt of (i) an executed Lender Group Joinder Agreement and (ii) a completed administrative questionnaire with respect to each member of such additional Lender Group, (A) each Person specified therein as a “Conduit Lender” shall become a party hereto as a Conduit Lender, entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Conduit Lender hereunder, (B) each Person specified therein as a “Committed Lender” shall become a party hereto as a Committed Lender, entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Committed Lender hereunder, (C) each Person specified therein as a “Funding Agent” shall become a party hereto as a Funding Agent, entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Funding Agent hereunder, (D) the Administrative Agent shall accept such Lender Group Joinder Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register, (E) subject to Section 2.17(a), the Maximum Commitment shall be increased by an amount equal to the aggregate Commitments of the Committed Lenders party to such Lender Group Joinder Agreement and (F) Schedule 1.01A shall be deemed to be amended and supplemented to reflect such joinder. The Administrative Agent shall give each Funding Agent prompt notice of the addition of any Lender Group.

(d)

Effect of Assignment. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 13.11, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and obligations of Sections 4.01, 4.04, 4.05 and 13.06 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that, 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, each applicable Borrower Party (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the Funding Agent of the Assignee, if applicable, and the applicable existing Note or Notes shall be returned to the Borrower, as applicable. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (f) of this Section 13.11.

(e)

Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower Parties (such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement and Lender Group Joinder Agreement delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Funding Agents, Lenders, and the Commitments of the Committed Lenders of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and Letter of Credit Liability 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 each Borrower Party, Agents, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Funding Agent or Lender hereunder, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. In addition, Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation of any Committed Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower Parties, any Agent, the Swingline Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Credit Agreement and for avoidance of doubt, each Lender Group with more than one Conduit Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, assign to another Conduit Lender in its Lender Group all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including the outstanding Obligations and rights to payment of Principal Obligation and interest), as determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time. Each such assignment shall be recorded on the books and records of the Administrative Agent and the relevant Conduit Lenders, without the need to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. For all purposes of this Credit Agreement and all related documents, with respect to each assignment under this paragraph the relevant Conduit Lender shall be deemed to have the benefit of, and be subject to the obligations imposed by, an executed, delivered, accepted and recorded Assignment and Acceptance Assignment relating to such assignment.

(f)

Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower Party, Funding Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, Swingline Lender or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person that is a Qualified Purchaser (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, a Disqualified Lender or a Borrower Party or any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letter of Credit Liability and Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that any Committed Lender may sell a participation in its rights and obligations hereunder only with the written consent of the Conduit Lender(s) in its Lender Group, and provided, further that: (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) each Borrower Party, each Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Swingline Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely

and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 13.06(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 Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit 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 second proviso of Section 13.01 that directly affects such Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.04, and 4.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 13.11 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.01(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 clause (b) of this Section 13.11; provided that such Participant: (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.01, 4.06, 13.11 and

13.18 as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section 13.11; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.01 or 4.05 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 4.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.02 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.03 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 this Credit 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.

(g)

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 Credit Agreement (including under its Note, 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, central bank or a collateral trustee or security agent for holders of commercial paper without notice to, or consent from, any Borrower Party or the Administrative Agent; provided that no such pledge or assignment or grant of a security interest 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.

(30) days’ notice to Borrower and Lenders, resign as Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Committed Lenders (subject to the consent of such Committed Lender in its sole discretion) a successor Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Natixis as Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If Natixis resigns as Letter of Credit Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer and all Letter of Credit Liability 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 2.08(c)). If Natixis resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all of the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require Committed Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.07(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Letter of Credit Issuer and/or Swingline Lender: (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be; and (ii) the successor Letter of Credit 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 satisfactory to Natixis to effectively assume the obligations of Natixis with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(i)

Certain Conduit Lender Provisions. Without limiting the foregoing, a Conduit Lender may, from time to time, with prior or concurrent notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in one transaction or a series of transactions, assign all or a portion of its interest in the Principal Obligation and its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which it is a party to a Conduit Assignee. Upon and to the extent of such assignment by the Conduit Lender to a Conduit Assignee, (i) such Conduit Assignee shall become a Conduit Lender in the assigning Conduit Lender’s Lender Group, with the Committed Lender and the Funding Agent in such Lender Group being the Committed Lender and Funding Agent, respectively, for such Conduit Assignee, (ii) such Conduit Assignee (as Conduit Lender) shall be the owner of the assigned portion of the Principal Obligation, (iii) the related administrator for such Conduit Assignee will act as the Administrator for such Conduit Assignee, with all corresponding rights and powers, express or implied, granted to an Administrator hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iv) such Conduit Assignee, any Related Commercial Paper Issuer, if such Conduit Assignee does not itself issue commercial paper, and their respective Liquidity Provider(s) and other Related Parties shall have the benefit of all the rights and protections provided to the Conduit Lender and its Liquidity Provider(s) herein and in the other Loan Documents (including any limitation on recourse against such Conduit Assignee or Related Parties, any agreement not to file or join in the filing of a petition to commence an insolvency proceeding against such Conduit Assignee, and the right to assign to another Conduit Assignee as provided in this paragraph), (v) such Conduit Assignee shall assume all (or the assigned or assumed portion) of the Conduit Lender’s obligations, if any, hereunder or any other Loan Document, and the Conduit Lender shall be released from such obligations, in each case to the extent of such assignment, and the obligations of the Conduit Lender and such Conduit Assignee shall be several and not joint, (vi) all distributions in respect of the Principal Obligation assigned shall be made to the applicable Funding Agent, on behalf of the Conduit Lender and such Conduit Assignee on a pro rata basis according to their respective

interests, (vii) the definition of the term “CP Rate” with respect to the portion of the Principal Obligation funded with Commercial Paper issued by the Conduit Lender from time to time shall be determined in the manner set forth in the definition of “CP Rate” applicable to the Conduit Lender on the basis of the interest rate or discount applicable to Commercial Paper issued by such Conduit Assignee rather than the original Conduit Lender, (viii) the defined terms and other terms and provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, and (ix) if requested by the Funding Agent or Administrator with respect to the Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and deliver such further agreements and documents and take such other actions as such Funding Agent or Administrator may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the foregoing. No such assignment shall be made to a Conduit Assignee unless the Commercial Paper of such Conduit Assignee shall have short-term credit ratings of “A-1” and “P-1” without the consent of Borrower. No assignment by a Conduit Lender to a Conduit Assignee of all or any portion of its interest in the Principal Obligation shall in any way diminish the obligation of the Committed Lenders in such Conduit Lender’s Lender Group under Section 2.02 to fund any Loan not funded by the Conduit Lender or such Conduit Assignee or to acquire from the Conduit Lender or such Conduit Assignee all or any portion of its interest in the Principal Obligation pursuant this Section 13.11(b)(i).

(j)

Certain Committed Lender Provisions. In the event that a Conduit Lender makes an assignment to a Conduit Assignee in accordance with clause (i) above, the Committed Lenders in such Conduit Lender’s Lender Group: (i) if requested by the related Administrator, shall terminate their participation in the applicable Liquidity Agreement to the extent of such assignment and shall execute (either directly or through a participation agreement, as determined by such Administrator) the liquidity agreement related to such Conduit Assignee, to the extent of such assignment, the terms of which shall be substantially similar to those of the participation or other agreement entered into by such Committed Lender with respect to the applicable Liquidity Agreement (or which shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the related Administrator), (ii) if requested by such Conduit Lender, shall enter into such agreements as requested by such Conduit Lender pursuant to which they shall be obligated to provide funding to such Conduit Assignee on the same terms and conditions as is provided for in this Credit Agreement in respect of such Conduit Lender (or which agreements shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and such Conduit Lender), and (iii) shall take such actions as the related Administrator shall reasonably request in connection therewith.

(a)

Assignment Amounts. At any time on or prior to the Stated Maturity Date, if the Administrator on behalf of the applicable Conduit Lender so elects, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Conduit Lender’s Funding Agent, such Conduit Lender hereby assigns effective on the Assignment Date referred to below all or such portions as may be elected by such Conduit Lender of its interest in the Principal Obligation at such time to its Committed Lenders pursuant to this Section 13.12; provided, however, that unless such assignment is an assignment of all such Conduit Lender’s interest in the Principal Obligation in whole on or after its Conduit Investment Termination Date, no such assignment shall take place pursuant to this Section 13.12 if an Event of Default shall then exist; and provided, further, that no such assignment shall take place pursuant to this Section 13.12 at a time when such Conduit Lender is subject to any proceedings under any Debtor Relief Laws. No further documentation or action on the part of such Conduit Lender, the Borrower, or the applicable Committed Lenders shall be required to exercise the rights set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, other than

the giving of the notice by the related Administrator on behalf of such Conduit Lender referred to in such sentence and the delivery by such Conduit Lender’s Funding Agent of a copy of such notice to each Committed Lender in the Lender Group (the date of the receipt by the Administrative Agent of any such notice being the “Assignment Date”). Each Committed Lender hereby agrees, unconditionally and irrevocably and under all circumstances, without set-off, counterclaim or defense of any kind, to pay the full amount of its Assignment Amount on such Assignment Date to such Conduit Lender in immediately available fundsSame Day Funds in Dollars based on the assigning Conduit Lender’s interest in the Principal Obligation, to an account designated by such Conduit Lender’s Funding Agent. Upon payment of its Assignment Amount, each such Committed Lender shall acquire an interest in the Principal Obligation equal to its Committed Lender Percentage thereof. Upon any assignment in whole by a Conduit Lender to its Committed Lenders on or after its Conduit Investment Termination Date as contemplated hereunder, such Conduit Lender shall cease to make any additional Loans hereunder. At all times prior to its Conduit Investment Termination Date, nothing herein shall prevent a Conduit Lender from making a subsequent Loan hereunder, in its sole discretion, following any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.12 or from making more than one assignment pursuant to this Section 13.12.

(b)

Additional Assignment Amounts. The applicable Borrower Party may pay to Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of each Conduit Lender’s Funding Agent for the benefit of such Conduit Lender, in connection with any assignment by such Conduit Lender to its Committed Lenders pursuant to this Section 13.12, an aggregate amount equal to all interest to accrue through the end of the current Interest Period to the extent attributable to the portion of the Loans so assigned to the Committed Lenders (as determined immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment), plus all Obligations then due, other than the Loans and other than any interest described above, attributable to such portion of the Loans so assigned. If the applicable Borrower Party does not make payment of such amounts at or prior to the time of assignment by a Conduit Lender to its Committed Lenders, such amount shall be paid by such Committed Lenders to the Conduit Lender as additional consideration for the interests assigned to the Committed Lenders and, except to the extent the applicable Borrower Party makes payment of such amounts to the Committed Lender when due, the amount of the “Loans” hereunder held by such Committed Lenders shall be increased by an amount equal to the additional amount so paid by such Committed Lenders.

13.12 at any time on or after its Conduit Investment Termination Date (and the payment of all amounts owing to such Conduit Lender in connection therewith), all rights of the related Administrator set forth herein shall be given to the applicable Funding Agent on behalf of its Committed Lenders instead of such Administrator.

on any Assignment Date occurring on or after the Conduit Investment Termination Date for the related Conduit Lender is less than the Loans of such Conduit Lender on such Assignment Date, then to the extent that payments or deposits thereafter received and applied by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Lender Group under Section 3.03 in respect of Loans exceed the aggregate of the unrecovered Assignment Amounts and Loans funded by such Committed Lenders, such excess shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to such Conduit Lender’s Funding Agent for the benefit of such Conduit Lender.

. If any Borrower Party is entitled to replace a Funding Party pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.06 (in any such case, an “Affected Funding Party”), then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort:

(a)

by notice to the applicable Funding Party, and with the consent of the Administrative Agent and such Funding Party’s Funding Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), elect to replace such Affected Funding Party as a Funding Party to this Credit Agreement with an Eligible Assignee procured by Borrower, provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided, further that, concurrently with such replacement such Eligible Assignee shall agree to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Affected Funding Party pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement and to become a Funding Party for all purposes under this Credit Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Funding Party to be terminated as of such date. Any such Affected Funding Party shall assign its rights and interests hereunder (other than its existing rights to payment pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.04), such assignment to be effected in compliance with the requirements of Section 13.11. In the event that such an assignment occurs, the Eligible Assignee: (i) if requested by the applicable Funding Agent, shall execute (either directly or through a participation agreement, as determined by the Funding Agent) a Liquidity Agreement related to the applicable Conduit Lender, to the extent of such assignment, the terms of which shall be substantially similar to those of the participation or other agreement by the assigning Committed Lender with respect to the applicable Liquidity Agreement (or which shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Funding Agent); and (ii) shall take such actions as the Agents shall reasonably request in connection therewith. A Funding Party shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Funding Party or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply; and

(b)

by notice to each member of the applicable Funding Party’s Lender Group, and with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), elect to replace the Affected Funding Party’s Lender Group with a Lender Group procured by Borrower, provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided, further that, concurrently with such replacement the Lenders in such replacement Lender Group shall agree to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to each Lender in the Affected Funding Party’s Lender Group pursuant to one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements and to become a Funding Party for all purposes under this Credit Agreement and to assume all obligations of each Lender in the Affected Funding Party’s Lender Group to be terminated as of such date. Each Lender in the Affected Funding Party’s Lender Group shall assign its rights and interests hereunder, such assignment to be effected in compliance with the requirements of Section 13.11.

. Regardless of any provision contained in any of the Loan Documents, Funding Party shall never be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest on the Obligations any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in the event that Funding Party ever receive, collect or apply as interest any such excess, the amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and treated hereunder as such; and, if the principal amount of the Obligations is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the applicable Borrower Party. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the Maximum Rate, each Borrower Party and Funding Party shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law: (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligations so that the interest rate does not exceed the Maximum Rate; provided that, if the Obligations are paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Maximum Rate, each applicable Funding Party shall refund to the applicable Borrower Party the amount of such excess or credit the amount of such excess against the principal amount of the Obligations and, in such event, Funding Parties shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving or receiving interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then the Loan Documents shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Credit Agreement.

. 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, each Funding Agent, and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent, or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent, any Funding 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.

. None of the Investors, shall have any personal, partnership, corporate or trust liability for the payment or performance of the Obligations. Nothing contained in this Section 13.17 or in any of the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall be construed to limit, restrict, or impede the obligations, the liabilities, and indebtedness of any Borrower Party, or of any Investor to make its Capital Contributions to Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Operating Agreement and its Subscription Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 13.17, the payment and performance of the Obligations shall be fully recourse to Borrower Parties and their respective properties and assets.

Notwithstanding subsections (a) through (j), neither Administrative Agent, Funding Agent nor any Lender shall disseminate any Information to a Disqualified Lender without the prior written consent of the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section 13.18, “Information” means all non-public, confidential or proprietary information received from or on behalf of any Borrower Party relating to any Borrower

Party or any of their Subsidiaries, Investors or Affiliates or its or their business; provided, that any information provided by or on behalf of any Borrower Party shall be deemed non-public, confidential and proprietary unless specifically identified otherwise by such Borrower Party.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, the obligations of each Conduit Lender under this Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents are solely the corporate obligations of such Conduit Lender and shall be payable solely to the extent of funds received by such Conduit Lender from the Borrower Parties in accordance herewith or from any party to any Loan Document in accordance with the terms thereof in excess of funds necessary to pay such Conduit Lender’s matured and maturing Commercial Paper or other rated indebtedness and, to the extent funds are not available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not constitute a claim against such Conduit Lender but shall continue to accrue. The payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code) of any party to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document against a Conduit Lender shall be subordinated to the payment in full of all of such Conduit Lender’s Commercial Paper and other rated indebtedness. No recourse under or with respect to any obligation, covenant or agreement of any Conduit Lender as contained in this Credit Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document entered into by it pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall be had against any manager or administrator of such Person or any incorporator, stockholder, member, officer, employee or director of such Person or of any such manager or administrator, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 13.23 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement.

. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, no Conduit Lender shall, nor shall any Conduit Lender be obligated to, pay any amount pursuant to this Credit Agreement unless (i) such Conduit Lender has received funds which may be used to make such payment and which funds are not required to repay its commercial paper notes when due and (ii) after giving effect to such payment, either (x) such Conduit Lender could issue commercial paper notes to refinance all of its outstanding commercial paper notes (assuming such outstanding commercial paper notes matured at such time) in accordance with the program documents governing its securitization program or

(y) all of such Conduit Lender’s commercial paper notes are paid in full. Any amount which any Conduit Lender does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in Section 101 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) against or obligation of such Conduit Lender for any such insufficiency unless and until such Conduit Lender satisfies the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) above. The provisions of this Section 13.24 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement.

. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Credit Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, any Assignment and Assumption Agreement, amendments or other modifications, Loan Notices, waivers or consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any

applicable lawLaw, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state lawsLaws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it.

. This Credit 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. This Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to Administrative Agent, or, if applicable, the Letter of Credit Issuer, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 7.01, this Credit 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 Credit Agreement by fax or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Credit Agreement.

. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower Party in respect of any such sum due from it to Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Credit Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender from any Borrower Party in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender in such currency, Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower Party (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

. Solely to the extent any Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer that is an Affected Financial Institution is a party to this Credit Agreement, 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 Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer that is an Affected 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 the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a)

(h) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that

rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (a) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §252.82(b); (b) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or (c) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

“Swap Contract” means: (a) any and all rate swap transactions, basis swaps, credit derivative transactions, forward rate transactions, commodity swaps, commodity options, forward commodity contracts, equity or equity index swaps or options, bond or bond price or bond index swaps or options or forward bond or forward bond price or forward bond index transactions, interest rate options, forward foreign exchange transactions, cap transactions, floor transactions, collar transactions, currency swap transactions, cross-currency rate swap transactions, currency options, spot contracts, or any other similar transactions or any combination of any of the foregoing (including any options to enter into any of the foregoing), whether or not any such transaction is governed by or subject to any master agreement; and (b) any and all transactions of any kind, and the related confirmations, which are subject to the terms and conditions of, or governed by, any form of master agreement published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., any International Foreign Exchange Master Agreement, or any other master agreement, including any such obligations or liabilities under any such master agreement.

. THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Credit Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
