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.

PAGE 6

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower hereby consent to (i) the reallocation of the Revolving Credit Commitment Amounts, (ii) each New Lender’s agreement to provide a Revolving Credit Commitment Amount and (iii) the increase in each Increasing Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Amount. On the date this Amendment becomes effective and after giving effect to such reallocation and assignment and increase of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment, the Revolving Credit Commitment Amount of each Lender shall be as set forth on Schedule 1.2 of this Amendment. Each Lender hereby consents to the Revolving Credit Commitment Amount set forth on Schedule 1.2 of this Amendment. The reallocation of the Revolving Credit Commitment Amounts among the Lenders and the acquisition by each New Lender of an interest in the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment, shall be deemed to have been consummated pursuant to the terms of the Assignment and Assumption attached as Exhibit D to the Credit Agreement as if the Lenders, including each New Lender, had executed an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such reallocation. The Administrative Agent hereby waives the $3,500 processing and recordation fee set forth in Section 13.7(b)(iv) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the assignments and reallocations contemplated by this Section 3.

Each New Lender agrees that it shall be deemed to be, and hereby becomes on the date of effectiveness of this Amendment, a party in all respects to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which all the Lenders are party and each shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
