- 3 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.2.1 Mandatory Prepayment. (a) If at any time the Aggregate Total Outstandings
(calculated as of the most recent Computation Date) exceeds either the Aggregate
Commitment or the Borrowing Base, then (A) the US-Borrower shall be obligated to
immediately repay Advances under the US Subfacility, and (B) each Non-US
Borrower shall be jointly and severally obligated to immediately repay Advances
under all Subfacilities, in each case in a principal amount that is, together
with any other Borrower’s repayment pursuant to this sentence, sufficient to
eliminate any such excess; provided that no Non-US Borrower shall be required to
repay any amount to the extent prohibited by applicable law. If at any time (in
each case measured as of the most recent Computation Date) (i) the Aggregate
Total Outstandings in respect of the Euro Subfacility exceed the Euro
Subfacility Limit, (iii) the Aggregate Total Outstandings in respect of the
Singapore Subfacility exceed the Singapore Subfacility Limit, (iv) the Aggregate
Total Outstandings in respect of the Hong Kong Subfacility exceed the Hong Kong
Subfacility Limit, or (v) the Aggregate Total Outstandings under the Japan
Subfacility exceed the Japan Subfacility Limit, each Borrower that is a party to
such affected Subfacility shall be jointly and severally obligated to repay
Advances under the affected Subfacility in an amount or amounts sufficient to
eliminate any such excess. Until such time as an excess in an affected
Subfacility is so eliminated, the Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced by an
amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the excess of such affected Subfacility.

2.2.2 Voluntary Prepayment. The applicable Borrower may from time to time pay,
subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by
Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Advances under its
respective Facility, or, in the minimum amount of EUR 1,000,000 or any integral
multiples of EUR 100,000 in excess thereof in the case of the Euro Subfacility,
the minimum of S$ 1,000,000 or any integral multiples of S$ 100,000 in excess
thereof in the case of the Singapore Subfacility, the minimum of H$ 1,000,000 or
any integral multiples of H$ 100,000 in excess thereof in the case of the Hong
Kong Subfacility, the minimum of JPY 100,000,000 or any integral multiples of
JPY 10,000,000 in excess thereof in the case of the Japan Subfacility and the
minimum of $1,000,000 or any integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof in
the case of the US Facility (except that prepayments may be made in the minimum
amount of $100,000 or any integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof in
the case of a Floating Rate Advance), any portion of the outstanding Advances

if in excess thereof in the case of the Japan Subfacility, and (vi) $300,000 and
in multiples of $100,000 if in excess thereof in the case of Floating Advances
under the US Facility.

such Advance.

 

- 6 -

2.9 Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Eurocurrency Advance, SIBOR Advance,
HIBOR Advance and LIBOR Euroyen Advance shall bear interest at the Eurocurrency
