In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans.

(ii) On the Effective Date, each Issuing Bank that has issued an Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have granted to each Revolving Lender and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have

The Lenders hereby agree that upon the effectiveness of any redesignation of a Letter of Credit as an RA Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have released the participation by each Revolving Lender in such Letter of Credit and on and after the effectiveness of any such redesignation, such Letter of Credit shall for all purposes hereof be treated in the same way as a Letter of Credit that has expired or been canceled.

Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Banks, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility
 
 

 
for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
 
(g)   Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
 
(h)   Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.
 
(i)   Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
 
(j)   Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing or if the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.10(b) or if the Borrower gives written notice to the Administrative Agent that it elects to provide cash collateral for purposes of Section 6.14 and 6.15, on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, or on the date the Borrower provides notice of such election, as applicable, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become
 
 

 
immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, (i) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII or (ii) upon the occurrence of the circumstances described in Section 2.10(b). Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, and the Borrower hereby grants the Lenders a security interest in all funds and investments in such account to secure such obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default or elects to provide such collateral for purposes of Section 6.14 and 6.15, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower (i) in the case of any Event of Default, within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived, or (ii) in the case of any such election, after the delivery of financial statements showing compliance with the financial ratio requirements set forth in Sections 6.14 and 6.15 or after receipt of written consent to such release from the Required Revolving Lenders.
 
(k)   Issuing Bank Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
 
SECTION 2.06.   Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or deemed by Section 2.03, and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or deemed by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods
 
 

 
therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.
 
(b)   To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.
 
(c)   Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02 (including with respect to minimum amounts and borrowing multiples relating to any resulting Borrowing):
 
(i)  the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
 
(ii)  the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
 
(iii)  whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and
 
(iv)  if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
 
If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
 
(d)   Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request with respect to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
 
(e)   If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
 
 

 
SECTION 2.07.   Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Tranche A Commitments and Tranche B Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.
 
(b)   FCX may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) FCX shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Loans and provision of cash collateral, in each case in accordance with Section 2.10(b), the aggregate Revolving Exposures (excluding the LC Exposure with respect to which cash collateral has been provided in accordance with Section 2.10(b)) would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.
 
(c)   FCX shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election or reduction and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by FCX pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by FCX may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financings or of asset dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked by FCX (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the amounts of their Commitments of such Class.
 
SECTION 2.08.   Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.09 and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested.
 
(b)   Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
 
(c)   The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
 
 

 
(d)   The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
 
(e)   Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

(c)   To the extent not previously paid, (i) all Tranche A Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Tranche A Maturity Date and (ii) all Tranche B Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Tranche B Maturity Date.
 
(d)   Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing of either Class shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to this Section in direct order. If the initial aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Term Commitments of either Class exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Class that are made on the Effective Date, then the scheduled repayments of Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to this Section shall be reduced ratably by an aggregate amount equal to such excess.
 
(e)   Prior to any repayment of any Term Borrowings of either Class hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such election not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Repayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.
 
SECTION 2.10.   Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to the requirements of this Section and to the making of any payment required under Section 2.15.
 
(b)   In the event and on each occasion on or prior to the Revolving Maturity Date that the sum of the Revolving Exposures exceeds the total Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that if no Revolving Borrowings are outstanding and the LC Exposure exceeds the total Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall provide cash collateral in an aggregate amount equal to such excess in accordance with Section 2.05(j). In addition, at any time that Revolving Borrowings are outstanding and the total Revolving Commitments (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) exceed the total Revolving Exposures (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) by the minimum borrowing amount thereunder or more, the Borrower shall at the end of the next Interest Period for any Revolving Borrowing, prepay such Revolving Borrowing (or, if less, a portion of such Borrowing equal to the unused Commitments (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) at the time of such prepayment.
 
 

 
(c)   In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, on the day such Net Proceeds are received (or, (x) in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, within three Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received or (y) in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition of “Prepayment Event”, within 15 Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received), prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to (i) in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, (A) to the extent that Total Debt, prior to giving effect to such prepayment, exceeds $12,500,000,000, 50% until such Total Debt is reduced to $12,500,000,000, (B) to the extent that Total Debt, prior to giving effect to such prepayment but after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to clause (A) above, exceeds $7,500,000,000 but is less than or equal to $12,500,000,000, 25% until such Total Debt is reduced to $7,500,000,000 and (C) if Total Debt, after giving effect to any prepayment required under clause (A) or (B) above is less than or equal to $7,500,000,000, 0% of the amount of such Net Proceeds, (ii) in the case of any Prepayment Event under clause (e) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, 50% of the amount of such Net Proceeds, and (iii) in the case of all other Prepayment Events, 100% of the amount of such Net Proceeds, provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) within 365 days (or, if later, within 180 days after the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary has, prior to the expiration of such 365-day period, entered into a binding commitment to so reinvest such Net Proceeds) after receipt of such Net Proceeds and at a time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to acquire real property, equipment or other tangible assets to be used in the business of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent within (x) in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” three Business Days or (y) in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition of “Prepayment Event” 15 Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received a certificate of a Financial Officer stating its intention to do so and certifying that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 365 day period (or, if later, such 180 day period), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 2.10, following an event of default under any indenture governing any of the Ratable Obligations, if the trustee under the indenture governing such Ratable Obligations shall have delivered a notice to the Administrative Agent under the applicable Security Document stating that an event of default has occurred under such indenture and that the equal and ratable provisions shall thereafter apply to any disposition of Collateral equally and ratably securing such Ratable Obligations, then, until such notice is revoked, any Net Proceeds from the sale or disposition of such Collateral shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Security Document rather than the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, in the event that any prepayment or offer to purchase would otherwise be required to be made in respect of any Net Proceeds for the benefit of the holders of the Ratable FCX Obligations on a date (the "Prepayment Date") prior to the  date any prepayment in respect of such Net Proceeds would otherwise be required to be made hereunder, (I) such prepayment hereunder shall, solely with respect to such Net Proceeds, be due on the Prepayment Date and (II) the amount of such required prepayment hereunder shall be reduced by the portion of such prepayment that is required to be paid to such holders
 
 

 
under the provisions applicable to such FCX Ratable Obligations (but in no event more than the amount that would be required to be so applied under the provisions applicable to such FCX Ratable Obligations on the Effective Date).
 
(d)   Following the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, the Borrower shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, provided that (x) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, Excess Cash Flow shall be calculated for the period from April 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007 and (y) the amount of such prepayment shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of prepayments of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10(a) during such fiscal year. Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date on which financial statements are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated (and in any event within 95 days after the end of such fiscal year). The “ECF Percentage” at any time shall mean (a) at any time during a Collateral Shortfall Period, (i) to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, prior to giving effect to such prepayment, exceeds 3.0 to 1.0, 50%, until the Total Leverage Ratio is reduced to 3.0 to 1.0, (ii) to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, prior to such prepayment but after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to clause (a)(i) above, is less than or equal to 3.0 to 1.0 but exceeds 2.0 to 1.0, 25%, until the Total Leverage Ratio is reduced to 2.0 to 1.0 and (iii) to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, after giving effect to any prepayments made pursuant to clause (a)(i) and (a)(ii) above, is less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0, 0%, or (b) at any other time, to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, prior to giving effect to such prepayment, exceeds 4.0 to 1.0, 50%, until such Total Leverage Ratio is reduced to 4.0 to 1.0, (ii) to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, prior to such prepayment but after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to clause (b)(i) above, is less than or equal to 4.0 to 1.0 but exceeds 3.0 to 1.0, 25%, until the Total Leverage Ratio is reduced to 3.0 to 1.0 and (iii) to the extent that the Total Leverage Ratio, after giving effect to any prepayments made pursuant to clause (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above, is less than or equal to 3.0 to 1.0, 0%.
 
(e)   Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section. In the event of any optional prepayment of Term Borrowings, the Borrower shall specify the Class or Classes of Term Borrowings to be prepaid and the amount of such prepayment to be applied to such Class or Classes, and the amount of any such prepayment of Term Borrowings of a Class shall be applied in direct order of maturity to the remaining amortization payments under Section 2.09 on a pro-rata basis among the Term Lenders of such Class. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, the Borrower shall select Term Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated between Tranche A Term Borrowings and Tranche B Term Borrowings pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class and shall be applied in direct order of maturity to the remaining amortization payments under Section 2.09, provided that any Tranche B Lender may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) at least one Business Day prior to the prepayment date if and to the extent that any Tranche A Term Loans remain outstanding, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Tranche B Term Loans pursuant to this Section (other than a mandatory prepayment in respect of a Prepayment Event described in clause (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Tranche B Term Loans but was so declined shall be applied to prepay Tranche B Term
 
 

 
Loans of non-declining Tranche B Lenders or Tranche A Term Borrowings as directed by the Borrower.
 
(f)   The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that (A) if a notice of optional voluntary prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07(c), and (B) a notice of prepayment of the Term Borrowings may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financings or of asset dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked by FCX (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.
 
SECTION 2.11.   Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily average unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).
 
(b)   The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to such Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding
 
 

 
the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate (and, if later, the date on which there ceases to be any Revolving Exposure) and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
 
(c)   The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
 
(d)   All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to an Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
 
SECTION 2.12.   Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate and plus, at all times during a Collateral Shortfall Period, 1.00%.
 
(b)   The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate and plus, at all times during a Collateral Shortfall Period, 1.00%.
 
(c)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall, on and after the date the Required Lenders so request, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.
 
(d)   Accrued interest on each Loan made to the Borrower shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for each such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
 
 

 
(e)   All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
SECTION 2.13.   Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:
 
(a)  the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or
 
(b)  the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
 
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.
 
SECTION 2.14.   Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:
 
(i)  impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) or any Issuing Bank; or
 
(ii)  impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
 
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each case by or in an amount which such Lender in its sole judgment deems material in the context of this Agreement and its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit hereunder, then the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
 
(b)   If any Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower at any time to the effect that Eurodollar Reserve Requirements are, or are scheduled to become, effective and that such Lender is or will be generally subject to
 
 

 
such Eurodollar Reserve Requirements as a result of which such Lender will incur additional costs, then such Lender shall, for each day from the later of the date of such notice and the date on which such Eurodollar Reserve Requirements become effective, be entitled to additional interest on each Eurodollar Loan made by it at a rate per annum determined for such day (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 100th of 1%) equal to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the LIBO Rate for such Eurodollar Loan from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBO Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the then-applicable Eurodollar Reserve Requirements. Such additional interest will be payable in arrears to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Lender, on each Interest Payment Date relating to such Eurodollar Loan and on any other date when interest is required to be paid hereunder with respect to such Loan. Any Lender which gives notice under this paragraph (b) shall promptly withdraw such notice (by written notice of withdrawal given to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) in the event Eurodollar Reserve Requirements cease to apply to it or the circumstances giving rise to such notice otherwise cease to exist.
 
(c)   If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), by an amount which such Lender in its sole judgment deems to be material in the context of this Agreement and its Loans, Commitments and participations in Letters of Credit hereunder, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
 
(d)   A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (c) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
 
(e)   Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
 
SECTION 2.15.   Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan to the Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default),
 
 

 
(b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to the Borrower other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure by the Borrower to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(f) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
 
SECTION 2.16.   Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
 
(b)   In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
 
(c)   The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section in respect of penalties, interest and other liabilities attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, if such penalties, interest and other liabilities are attributable to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a
 
 

 
Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(d)   As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
 
(e)   If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
 
(f)   Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Foreign Lender has received written notice from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and supplying all applicable documentation.
 
(g)   Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Security Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) to make available any of its income tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.
 
SECTION 2.17.   Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursements of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or
 
 

 
Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.
 
(b)   If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.
 
(c)   If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
 
(d)   Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment,
 
 

 
then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank 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 the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
 
(e)   If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04, 2.05(d) or (e), 2.17(d), 2.19(c) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
 
SECTION 2.18.   Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof) or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
 
(b)   If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof), or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, or if any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.02 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Principal Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments, and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from the failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and the fee required under Section 9.04(b)(ii)(C) shall have been paid by
 
 

 
such assignee or by the Borrower. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver, consent or approval by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
 
SECTION 2.19.   Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $100,000,000 or (ii) the aggregate Revolving Exposures exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments, provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.
 
(b)   To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to reimburse a Issuing Bank, to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.
 
(c)   The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter (i) each participation
 
 

 
so acquired in such Swingline Loan shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan and (ii) payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear, provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The failure of any Revolving Lender to purchase any participation in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

ARTICLE VIII
 
The Agents
 
Each of the Lenders, the Agents and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints (a) JPMCB as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (b) JPMCB as Collateral Agent for the Lenders, the Agents and the Issuing Banks under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (c) Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as the Syndication Agent for the Lenders, the Agents and the Issuing Banks under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank confirms and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Loan Documents. Each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the applicable Agent by the terms of the applicable Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Syndication Agent nor any Documentation Agent, in its capacity as such, shall have any responsibilities or authority under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
 
Each of the Lenders serving as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Syndication Agent 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 the applicable Agent or Agent under the Restated Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents thereunder, and each of such Lenders and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder or thereunder.
 
No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the applicable Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders or Secured Parties as shall be
 
 

 
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or the applicable Loan Document), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity under the Loan Documents, the Restated Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents thereunder. No Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.
 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the collateral under the Security Documents and to carry out the rights of the secured parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents, including, specifically with respect to the Pledged PTFI Shares and the Pledged PTII Shares, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to exercise the rights of the Pledgors under the FCX Pledge Agreements as owners of such shares in accordance with the terms of the FCX Pledge Agreements and otherwise applicable law. In addition, each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter, on behalf of each of them, into the Security Documents and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Security Documents. Each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to enter into amendments from time to time to the Security Documents or take any other action for the purpose of naming as Secured Parties thereunder (i) Lenders that become parties to this Agreement after the Effective Date and/or (ii) Lender Affiliates that become counterparties to Hedging Agreements, the obligations under which are secured by the Security Documents.
 
Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the 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 its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the applicable Agent.
 
 

 
Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs 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 Agent.
 
No Agent shall commence any litigation in the name of, or on behalf of, any Lender without the prior consent of such Lender; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Agent commences any litigation at the direction of the Required Lenders, any Lender that shall not have consented thereto shall remain liable for its pro rata share of the costs and expenses of such Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
 
The Syndication Agent and, subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided in this paragraph, any other Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders under the Restated Credit Agreement), as the case may be. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After any Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 it was acting as an Agent.
 
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
 
The obligations of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the Syndication Agent shall be separate and several and none of them shall be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of any other, except, to the extent that any such Agent serves in more than one agency capacity, such Agent shall be responsible for the acts and omissions relating to each such agency function.
 
 

 
Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders but subject to Section 9.02(b), the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent will not, except as contemplated by this paragraph, consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of any Security Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to enter into such amendments as it may deem appropriate to the Third Amended and Restated FCX Pledge Agreement (PTFI Shares) in connection with the satisfaction of the Full Stock Pledge Condition or the Partial Stock Pledge Condition. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent will, at the request of FCX, release (or subordinate such interest) from the Security Documents (and enter into an amendment to any applicable Security Document and execute such other instruments as may be necessary in connection therewith), any interest of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate from a Financial Officer of FCX specifying the asset to be released and the related transaction and certifying that after giving effect thereto, no Event of Default shall occur or be continuing, specific assets (which may either be released from the Lien of the Security Documents or excluded from the after-acquired property clauses of the Security Documents) as required to be released to allow sales, transfers or other dispositions, secured financings, capital leases and sale leaseback transactions and pledges of assets expressly permitted hereby. In addition, upon consummation of a Project Financing by a Project Financing Subsidiary, to the extent releases are requested in a certificate from a Financial Officer of FCX, which certificate shall certify that after giving effect to such releases no Event of Default shall occur or be continuing and that such releases are in conformity with clause (D) of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, such Project Financing Subsidiary and, if applicable, its parent shall automatically be released from its Guarantee and the pledge of the Equity Interests in such Project Financing Subsidiary shall be released. It is understood and agreed that releases in connection with this paragraph shall not require any further consent of the Required Lenders.
 
By acceptance of the benefits of the Security Documents, the holders of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Atlantic Copper Pledge Agreement referred to below) hereby expressly and irrevocably appoint JPMCB as Collateral Agent under the Atlantic Copper Pledge Agreement and such holders hereby expressly and irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to accept and cancel, in their name and on their behalf, a pledge (including its novations) over the shares representing 65% of the share capital of Atlantic Copper S.A. (“Atlantic Copper”), a company (sociedad anónima) incorporated and existing under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, having its registered office at Avenida Francisco Montenegro s/n, 21007, Huelva, Spain, and Tax Identification Number (C.I.F.) A-79110482, as security for the Secured Obligations (as so defined) (the “Pledge of Atlantic Copper Shares”), and, in particular, but not exclusively, (i) to execute one or more pledge agreements (collectively, the “Atlantic Copper Pledge Agreement”), as well as any subsequent novations thereof, inter alia, over the shares of Atlantic Copper owned by Freeport-McMoRan Spain Inc. representing, from time to time, 65% of the share capital of Atlantic Copper on the terms and conditions that the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (ii) to appear before a Notary Public and execute, on the terms the Collateral Agent deems appropriate, the granting of any ratification, amendment, confirmation, supplement, novation or cancellation of the document or documents by virtue of which the Pledge of Atlantic Copper Shares is created; (iii) to carry out whatever actions and legal proceedings the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate for the enforcement of the Pledge of Atlantic Copper Shares in accordance with the terms of the applicable Loan Documents; (iv) to carry out, as well, all related or complementary acts needed in order to fully execute the mandate received, and in particular, grant amendment documents and to do all other things, to enter into all other agreements and to make all other statements necessary or useful in connection with the above mentioned
 
 

 
performances; and (v) to make any payment of any reasonable expenses and fees, including legal and notarial fees.

SECTION 9.02.   Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
 
 

 
partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
 
(b)   Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the dates set forth in the definition of “Collateral Shortfall Period”), (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09, or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement under Section 2.05, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be) (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, additional extensions of credit or revolving commitments pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments on the date hereof), (vi) release all or substantially all the Guarantors from their Guarantee under the Loan Documents or limit the liability of all or substantially all the Guarantors in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of Collateral or payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each affected Class or (ix) change the rights of the Tranche B Lenders to decline mandatory prepayments as provided in Section 2.10, without the
 
 

 
written consent of Tranche B Lenders holding a majority of the outstanding Tranche B Loans; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of such Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be; (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time; (C) if the terms of any waiver, amendment or modification of any Loan Document provide that any Class of Loans (together with all accrued interest thereon and all accrued fees payable with respect to the Commitments of such Class) will be repaid or paid in full, and the Commitments of such Class (if any) terminated, as a condition to the effectiveness of such waiver, amendment or modification, then so long as the Loans of such Class (together with such accrued interest and fees) are in fact repaid or paid and such Commitments are in fact terminated, in each case prior to or substantially simultaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, then such Loans and Commitments shall not be included in the determination of the Required Lenders with respect to such amendment; and (D) no amendment, modification, waiver of or consent with respect to any of the terms and provisions (and related definitions to the extent applicable to the Financial Covenants) of the Financial Covenants, the provisos to paragraph (d) of Article VII or the parenthetical reference to the Financial Covenants in the then clause at the end of Article VII shall be effective without the written consent of the Required Revolving Lenders and, in the case of the Financial Covenants and the related definitions to the extent applicable to the Financial Covenants, any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver shall be effective with the written consent of only the Required Revolving Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the prior written consent thereof), on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent if (i) by the terms of such agreement any remaining Commitment and/or Revolving Exposure of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.
 
SECTION 9.03.   Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for each Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
 
 

 
out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.
 
(b)   The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (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 or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank 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), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related costs and expenses arising from a release of Hazardous Materials or Environmental Liability (except releases of Hazardous Materials or Environmental Liabilities actually caused by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective tenants, contractors or agents) to the extent (and only to the extent) first occurring and first existing after title to the relevant real property or facility is vested in any Agent or Lender or other party after the completion of foreclosure proceedings or the granting of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer of title, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory 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 are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
 
(c)   To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (but without affecting the Borrower’s obligations thereunder), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the applicable Agent such Lender’s pro rata share (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 such Agent in its capacity as such. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Revolving
 
 

 
Commitments at the time. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (but without affecting the Borrower’s obligations thereunder), each Revolving Lender severally agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Bank such Revolving Lender’s pro rata share (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 such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a Revolving Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures and unused Revolving Commitments at the time. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph (c)). If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Lender, any Agent, any Issuing Bank or other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 9.03, FCX, to the extent and in the manner directed by such indemnified party, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel designated by FCX (which counsel shall be satisfactory to such Lender, such Agent, such Issuing Bank or other Person indemnified or intended to be indemnified). If FCX shall fail to do any act or thing which it has covenanted to do hereunder or any representation or warranty on the part of FCX contained in this Agreement shall be breached, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend its funds for such purpose. Any and all amounts so expended by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Agent shall be repayable to it by FCX immediately upon such Person’s demand therefor.
 
(d)   To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.
 
(e)   All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor.
 
SECTION 9.04.   Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
 
(b)   (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or LC Exposure and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, it being understood that the Borrower may withhold its consent to an assignment to a Lender that would, as of the effective date of such assignment, be entitled to claim compensation under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof) which the assignor Lender would not be entitled to claim as of that date) of:
 
(A) in the case of assignments of Revolving Commitments or Revolving Exposures, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and each Principal Issuing Bank;
 
 

 
provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Revolving Lender or to an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender having credit ratings equal to or better than the credit ratings of such Revolving Lender, or, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and
 
(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of a Term Loan or Term Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.
 
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
 
(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or, in the case of a Term Loan, $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing; and provided further that simultaneous assignments in respect of a Lender and its Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of such requirement;
 
(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;
 
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, payable by either the assignee or the assignor (provided that only one such fee shall be payable in respect of simultaneous assignments by a Lender and its Approved Funds); and
 
(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.16(f).
 
For purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “CLO” have the following meanings:
 
Approved Fund” means (a) a CLO and (b) with respect to any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans and similar extensions of credit, any other fund that invests in bank loans and similar extensions of credit and is managed by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.
 
CLO” means an entity (whether a corporation, partnership, trust or otherwise) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and is administered or managed by a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender.
 
 

 
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
 
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
 
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
 
(vi) At the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the assignee under an Assignment and Assumption, the Borrower, each applicable Agent and such assignee shall enter into any amendments to the Security Documents or take any other actions for the purpose of naming such assignee as a Secured Party thereunder.
 
(c)   (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or LC Exposure and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Banks 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 Agreement and (D) such Lender will continue to give prompt attention to and process (including, if required, through discussions with Participants) requests for waivers or amendments hereunder. 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 the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.
 
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 (other than paragraph (b) thereof) or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(f) as though it were a Lender.
 
(d)   Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
 
SECTION 9.05.   Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
 
SECTION 9.06.   Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent 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 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
 
SECTION 9.07.   Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
 
SECTION 9.08.   Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing (although such obligations may be unmatured) by such Lender or Issuing Bank or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations then due of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement. The applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, Issuing Bank and Affiliates may have.
 
SECTION 9.09.   Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Sovereign Immunity. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.
 
(b)   The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court 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 any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action 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 Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
 
 

 
(c)   The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
 
(d)   Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
 
SECTION 9.10.   WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY 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 AGREEMENT, 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 PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY 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 AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
 
SECTION 9.11.   Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
 
SECTION 9.12.   Confidentiality. Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, trustees, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or Participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available
 
 

 
to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
 
SECTION 9.13.   Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any LC Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or LC Disbursements or participations therein or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
 
SECTION 9.14.   Judgment Currency. The specification of payment in dollars and in New York City, New York, with respect to amounts payable to any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant), any Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is of the essence, and dollars shall be the currency of account in all events. The payment obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not be discharged by an amount paid by the Borrower in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to dollars and transfer to New York City under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of dollars in New York City due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in dollars into another currency (the “second currency”), the rate of exchange which shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase dollars with the second currency on the Business Day next preceding that on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from the Borrower to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (or permitted assignee or Participant) hereunder or under any other Loan Document (an “entitled person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such entitled person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in the second currency such entitled person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase in the free market and transfer to New York City dollars with the amount of the second currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrower hereby agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such entitled person against, and to pay such entitled person on demand, in dollars in New York City, the difference between the sum originally due to such entitled person from the Borrower in dollars and the amount of dollars so purchased and transferred.
 
SECTION 9.15.   [intentionally omitted]
 
 

 
SECTION 9.16.   Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower agrees to provide the Lenders, upon request, with all documentation and other information required from time to time to be obtained by the Lenders pursuant to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.
 
SECTION 9.17.   No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrower, on behalf of itself and the Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower, the Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.
 
SECTION 9.18.   Release of Liens and Guarantees; Rejurisdictioning of PTFI. (a) A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and in the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary Guarantor, shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required under Section 9.02) shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than to FCX or any other Subsidiary) of any Collateral that is permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted under any Loan Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02 of this Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Subsidiary Guarantor, at such Subsidiary Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Subsidiary Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release.
 
(b)   Subject to paragraph (e) below, at any time following the Investment Grade Date when there is no outstanding Tranche B Term Loan, upon written notice from the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense, the Collateral Agent shall terminate and release all the Collateral under the Security Documents (but not, unless specifically requested by the Borrower in such notice, any Collateral under the FI Security Documents) and the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver all documents that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release.
 
(c)   Notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document to the contrary, at any time when either (i) the Full Stock Pledge Condition is satisfied or (ii) the Additional Collateral Requirement is satisfied, PTFI may elect to effect a transaction in which it will cease to be domesticated under the laws of Delaware as a corporation and shall become solely a limited liability company organized under the laws of the Republic of Indonesia.
 
 

 
(d)   Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent.
 
(e)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, no Guarantee shall be released unless each Ratable Guarantee by the applicable Loan Party shall be released upon the release of such Loan Party’s Guarantee of the Secured Obligations.
 
SECTION 9.19.   Non-Public Information. (a) Each Lender acknowledges that all information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement from the Borrower or on its behalf and relating to the Borrower, the Subsidiaries or its or their respective businesses may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or its or their securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with the procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.
 
(b)   All such information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and the Subsidiaries and its and their securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.
 
SECTION 9.20.   Parallel Debt.
