Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser and
each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of
either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or is
under common control with, or is controlled by, the Initial Purchaser

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

(collectively, the "Agent Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Agent Indemnified Party) (i)
relating to, arising out of or in connection with the breach by the Issuer of
any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party (in each
case, after giving effect to any materiality qualifications set forth therein)
or (ii) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in any Offering Materials (as defined below), or caused by any
omission or alleged omission in the Offering Materials of a material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading. With respect to clause (i) above,
the Issuer will not be responsible for any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of any Agent Indemnified Party that are finally judicially
determined to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad
faith of such Agent Indemnified Party. With respect to clause (ii) above, the
Issuer will not be responsible for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
that are caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission based upon information relating to the Initial Purchaser furnished
to the Issuer in writing by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use in the
Pre-Preliminary Offering Circular, the Preliminary Offering Circular and the
Final Offering Circular and contained under the heading "Risk Factors-Relating
to Certain Conflicts of Interest-Certain Conflicts of Interest Relating to the
Initial Purchaser and its Affiliates" and under the first, seventh, eighth,
tenth (third sentence only), thirteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth paragraphs
under the heading "Plan of Distribution".

Except to the extent set forth in paragraph (b) below, each of the Issuers also
agrees that none of the Agent Indemnified Parties shall have any liability
(whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to it for or in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except for any
such liability for losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred by it that
are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith of such Agent Indemnified Party. "Offering
Materials" means the Pre-Preliminary Offering Circular, the Preliminary Offering
Circular, the Final Offering Circular and any document incorporated by reference
therein or any amendment or supplement thereto and any materials distributed by
the Initial Purchaser to prospective purchasers of the Notes.
(b)The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, its
officers, members, managers, authorized persons, authorized representatives and
directors and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of
either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (the
"Issuers Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Offering Materials or caused by
any omission or alleged omission in any Offering Materials of a material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, but only with reference to
information relating to the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer in writing
by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use in the Pre-Preliminary Offering
Circular, the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Final Offering Circular and
contained under the heading "Risk Factors-Relating to Certain Conflicts of
Interest-Certain Conflicts of Interest Relating to the Initial Purchaser and its
Affiliates" and under the first, seventh, eighth, tenth (third sentence only),
thirteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth paragraphs under the heading "Plan of
Distribution".

(c)In the event any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall
be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought
pursuant to either of paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the "indemnified
party") shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be
sought (the "indemnifying party") in writing and the indemnifying party, upon
request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the
indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay

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

the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any
such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the
named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both
parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party
shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same
jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm
(in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all
such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as they are
incurred. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying
party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or
liability subject to indemnification hereunder by reason of such settlement or
judgment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if at any time an indemnified
party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified
party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third
sentence of this Section 9(c), the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent
if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such
indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party
shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request
prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the
prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or
could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of
such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter
of such proceeding.

(d)To the extent the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 9 is unavailable to any indemnified party or insufficient in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, then each indemnifying
party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Issuer, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser on the other hand, from the
offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of the Issuer, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchaser on the
other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer, on the one hand,
and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of
the Notes shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering of the Notes before deducting expenses received
directly by the Issuer, on the one hand, and the total discounts, commissions
and placement and other fees received by the Initial Purchaser in respect
thereof, on the other hand, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Notes.
The relative fault of the Issuer, on the one hand, and of the Initial Purchaser
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission of a material fact relates to information supplied
by the Issuer, on the one hand, or by the Initial Purchaser on the other hand,
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e)Each of the parties hereto agrees that it would not be just or equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation
or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable

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

by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and
liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 9, in no event shall the Initial Purchaser be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the amount by which (i) the Structuring and Advisory Fee (to
the extent actually received by the Initial Purchaser) exceeds (ii) the amount
of any damages that the Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f)The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 9 and the
representations and warranties of the Issuer contained in this Agreement shall
remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination
of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent
Indemnified Party or on behalf of any Issuers Indemnified Party or (iii)
acceptance of any payment for any of the Notes. The remedies provided for in
this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that
may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

10.
Termination.

The Initial Purchaser, in its absolute discretion, may terminate this Agreement
at any time on or prior to the Closing Date by notice to the Issuer if (a)
trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as
the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock
Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the
Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade or Euronext Dublin,
(b) trading of any securities of the Issuer shall have been suspended on any
substantial U.S. exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (c) a material
disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United
States, the United Kingdom or the Cayman Islands shall have occurred, (d) any
moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal
or New York State or Cayman Islands authorities or (e) there shall have occurred
any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or
any calamity or crisis that, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial
Purchaser, is materially adverse and which, singly or together with any other
event specified in clause (e), makes it, in the reasonable judgment of the
Initial Purchaser, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale
or delivery of the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the
Final Offering Circular.

Agreement, the Offering Materials or the Notes. Each of the parties hereto
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that

service may be made, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by delivering by
hand or certified or overnight mail a copy of such process to the Issuer in care
of the Process Agent at the Process Agent's address set forth above or such
other address as the Issuer shall notify the Initial Purchaser, in writing;
provided, however, that service shall also be mailed to the Issuer, and the
Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept
such service on its behalf, with delivery of a copy thereof to the Issuer in the
same manner and to the same address as notices are required to be delivered to
such Issuer under Section 15 hereof. The Issuer agrees that such service shall

court described above in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other
manner provided by law.

(b)To the extent that any of the parties hereto has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity from jurisdiction of any such court referred to above, or from any
legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself
or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, such immunity in respect of its obligations under this
Agreement.

controlling Person of the Initial Purchaser) and will survive delivery of and

Miscellaneous.

(a)If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to
convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than U.S. Dollars, the
parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so,
that the rate of exchange used shall be at the rate at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Initial Purchaser could purchase U.S. Dollars with
such other currency in the City of New York on the Business Day preceding that
on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Issuer in respect of
any sum due from it to the Initial Purchaser shall, notwithstanding any judgment
in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, not be discharged until the first
Business Day, following receipt by the Initial Purchaser of any sum adjudged to
be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) the
Initial Purchaser may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S.
Dollars with such other currency; if the U.S. Dollars so purchased are less than
the sum originally due to the Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Issuer agrees, as
a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the
Initial Purchaser against such loss. If the U.S. Dollars so purchased are
greater than the sum originally due to the Initial Purchaser hereunder, the
Initial Purchaser agrees to pay to the Issuer an amount equal to the excess of
the U.S. Dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to the Initial
Purchaser hereunder.

(b)If this Agreement is executed by or on behalf of any party hereto by a Person
acting under a power of attorney given him by such party, such Person hereby
states that at the time of execution hereof he has no notice of revocation of
the power of attorney by which he has executed this Agreement as such attorney.

(c)This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts with the same effect
as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Delivery
of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile,
.pdf format or other electronic means shall be as effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(d)This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
hereto, their respective successors and, with respect to Section 9 hereof, the
officers, directors and controlling persons thereof, and no other person will
have any right or obligation hereunder.

NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANDY CLAIM OR
CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY MADE IN OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR AS AN INDUCEMENT TO

17.

this Agreement are limited at all times in recourse to the Assets available at
such time and amounts derived therefrom. To the extent the Assets are not
sufficient to meet the obligations of the Issuer in full, after application of
the Assets in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Issuer shall
have no further obligations hereunder and any outstanding obligations of, and
remaining claims against, the Issuer shall be extinguished and shall not revive.
The obligations of the Issuer hereunder are solely the limited liability company
obligations of the Issuer and no action may be taken against any director,
officer, shareholder., member, manager, authorized person or administrator
thereof with respect to the obligations of the Issuer hereunder. This Section 17
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

18.
Non-Petition.

The Initial Purchaser agrees not to institute against, or join any other Person
in instituting against, the Issuer, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency, winding up, moratorium or liquidation proceedings or other
proceedings under U.S. federal or state bankruptcy or similar laws until at
least one year or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect,
and one day after payment in full of all Notes issued under the Indenture;
provided, however, that nothing in this Section 18 shall preclude, or be deemed
to estop, the Initial Purchaser (i) from taking any action prior to the
expiration of the applicable preference period in (A) any case or proceeding
voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or (B) any involuntary insolvency
proceeding filed or commenced against the Issuer by a Person other than the
Initial Purchaser or its affiliates, or (ii) from commencing against the Issuer
or any properties of the Issuer any legal action which is not a bankruptcy,
