ARTICLE II
COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS
Section 2.01    Loan Commitment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make, on the Closing Date and on future Drawdown 








Dates, loans (each, a “Loan” and, collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the Available Commitment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall a Lender be required to exceed such Lender’s Commitment at any time.
Section 2.02    Nature of Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow under the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.03 and prepay Loans pursuant to Section 3.01 during the Commitment Period.  Loans may be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as provided herein.  All Loans shall be denominated in Dollars.  Loans that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
Section 2.03    Borrowing Procedures.
(a)    The Borrower shall deliver a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section 2.03 requesting that the Lenders undertake an Approval Process (except in the case of the Closing Date) for the associated Projects and Project Contracts, and make the Loans on the Closing Date or the Drawdown Date, as applicable, specifying the amount to be borrowed by the Borrower.  Upon receipt of such Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.  To the extent the Required Lenders approve a Borrowing Request prior to the Closing Date or in accordance with clause (d) below and the conditions of Section 5.01 or 5.02, as applicable, have been satisfied, then on or before 11:00 a.m. on the Closing Date or the Drawdown Date, as applicable, each Lender that has a Commitment to make the Loans being requested shall deposit with the Administrative Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s applicable Loan Percentage of each applicable Borrowing in respect of such Eligible Assets.  Such deposit will be made to an account that the Administrative Agent shall specify by notice to the Lenders.  To the extent funds are received from the Lenders, upon the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions specified in Article V, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower by wire transfer to the account or accounts the Borrower shall have specified in the Borrowing Request.  No Lender’s obligation to make any Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that no more than three (3) Interest Periods shall be effective at any one time, (ii) no more than one Borrowing may be made in any calendar month, and (iii) each requested Borrowing shall be no less than $1,000,000.
(b)    Each Borrowing Request must be received by the Administrative Agent (i) with respect to the Closing Date, prior to 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days before (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) and prior to 11:00 a.m. (in the case of ABR Loans) one (1) Business Day before the anticipated Closing Date, (ii) with respect to any Drawdown Date, (A) for Borrowing Requests requesting an Approval Process with respect to Projects and Project Contracts with an existing Eligible Customer, prior to 11:00 a.m.  seven (7) Business Days before (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) and prior to 11:00 a.m.  (in the case of ABR Loans) five (5) Business Days before the anticipated Drawdown 








Date, and (B) for Borrowing Requests requesting an Approval Process with respect to Projects and Project Contracts with customers that are not existing Eligible Customers, prior to 11:00 a.m. fourteen (14) Business Days before (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) and prior to 11:00 a.m. (in the case of ABR Loans) twelve (12) Business Days before the anticipated Closing Date.
(c)    Each Borrowing Request following the Closing Date shall request that the Required Lenders commence the Approval Process with respect to certain Projects and Project Contracts, and be accompanied by a Borrowing Base Certificate, duly executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, and a proposed update to the Base Case Model.  The Borrowing Base Certificate shall include (i) a calculation of the Borrower Expected Cash Flow with respect to the subject Projects and Project Contracts, (ii) a calculation of the Advance Rate with respect to the subject Projects and Project Contracts, (iii) a calculation of the Borrowing Base Value both prior to and after the expected requested Borrowing, (iv) a calculation of the Pro Forma Debt Service Coverage Ratio for such period, (v) a description of each package of Projects and Project Contracts (as well as related customers and customer credit ratings) expected to be included in the Borrowing Base, and a proposed updated Schedule III, (vi) evidence that the subject Projects have achieved their commercial operation date in accordance with their respective Revenue Contracts, (vii) a list of the contracted servicers and technology related to such Projects and Project Contracts, and (viii) a report from the Independent Engineer containing substantially the same information as the Independent Engineer report delivered in connection with the Closing Date, solely with respect to any subject Project with a Revenue Contract counterparty if such counterparty was not previously included in an Independent Engineer report delivered to the Administrative Agent.  Each Borrowing Request shall certify that all documentation and information regarding the subject Projects and Project Contracts have been made available to the Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, and that all conditions precedent to the anticipated Drawdown Date can be satisfied by such date.
(d)    For each requested Borrowing following the Closing Date, upon the receipt of a complete and duly executed Borrowing Request and Borrowing Base Certificate in accordance with clause (c) above, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Required Lenders of the request to commence the Approval Process with respect to the subject Projects and Project Contracts.  The Lenders will then have five (5) to twelve (12) Business Days, as applicable pursuant to clause (b) above, to perform legal, financial, technical and tax due diligence review on the subject Projects and Project Contracts and to determine in their sole discretion whether (i) the subject Projects and Project Contracts shall become Eligible Assets, (ii) the proposed updated Base Case Model will become the new Base Case Model as of the applicable Drawdown Date, and (iii) whether the calculations set forth in the Borrowing Base Certificate are acceptable (the “Approval Process”).  Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date whether or not the Borrowing Request is approved.  The Administrative Agent will then notify the Borrower and each Lender as to whether or not the Required Lenders have approved the Borrowing Request.  If the 








Borrowing Request is approved by the Required Lenders, (x) the provisions of clause (a) above shall apply, (y) such Projects and Project Contracts shall become Eligible Assets as of the applicable Drawdown Date, and (z) such proposed Base Case Model shall become the new Base Case Model as of the applicable Drawdown Date.  If the Borrowing Request is not approved by the Required Lenders, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the reasons for rejection, and the Borrower may submit a revised Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03.
(e)    No Borrowing shall be permitted unless the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 with respect to the Closing Date or Section 5.02 with respect to any Drawdown Date have been satisfied.
Section 2.04    Continuation and Conversion Elections.
(a)    The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by delivering a Continuation/Conversion Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by delivering a Continuation/ Conversion Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan if a Default has occurred and is continuing.  Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.
(b)    Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower delivering a Continuation/Conversion Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days before such expiration; provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such if a Default has occurred and is continuing and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any Continuation/Conversion Notice as described above in this Section 2.04(b) or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period.  Upon receipt of any Continuation/Conversion Notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.
Section 2.05    Lending Office.  The Loans held by each Lender shall be maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office.
Section 2.06    Notes.
(a)    The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, it will execute and deliver to such Lender, as applicable, a Note evidencing the Loans made by such Lender.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s Notes (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall 








evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby.  Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations or any error in any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of the Borrower.  A Note and the obligation evidenced thereby may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only in accordance with Section 13.08.
(b)    The payment of any part of the principal of any Note shall discharge the obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement pro tanto, and the payment of any principal of a Loan in accordance with the terms hereof shall discharge the obligations of the Borrower under the Notes evidencing such loans pro tanto.  Notwithstanding the discharge in full of any Note, (i) if the amount paid or payable under any such Note is less than the amount due and payable in accordance with this Agreement with respect to the Loan evidence by such Note, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand such difference and (ii) if the amount paid or payable under any Note exceeds the amount due and payable in accordance with this Agreement with respect to the Loan evidenced by such Note, each Lender that has received amounts under such Notes in excess of the amount due to such Lender hereunder agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to promptly pay such excess to the Borrower upon demand.
Section 2.07    Defaulting Lender Adjustments.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:
(i)    Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”.
(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article X or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this 








Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, as applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.07(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par (plus any associated fees) that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments, and reimburse each such Lender for any costs of the type described in Section 4.04 incurred by any Lender as a result of such purchase, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
Section 2.08    Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  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 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, distribute to the Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, 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.
ARTICLE III

(i)    From time to time on any Business Day, the Borrower may make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part without premium or penalty (other than as set forth in Section 4.04), of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans; provided that (A) any prepayment of Loans is to be applied pro rata among the outstanding Loans so prepaid of all Lenders that have made such Loans, (B) all such voluntary prepayments shall require at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent before 11:00 a.m. in the form of Exhibit D and (C) all such voluntary partial prepayments of any Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall permit the repayment in full of such Loan).
(ii)    If any Financial Covenants are not satisfied as of any Calculation Date, the Borrower shall, no later than the date ten (10) Business Days following such Calculation Date, prepay the Loans (and/or remove Projects and related Project Contracts) to the extent necessary to satisfy the Financial Covenants.
(iii)    The Borrower shall from time to time prepay the Loans to the extent necessary so that the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans shall not at any time exceed the Available Commitment then in effect.
(iv)    Each prepayment or repayment of any amounts made pursuant to this Section 3.01(a) shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount of such Obligations to be prepaid and any amounts required by Section 4.04, without premium or penalty.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior written notice of any event or circumstance reasonably likely to give rise to a mandatory prepayment obligation under this Section 3.01(a) (including the date and an estimate of the aggregate amount of such mandatory prepayment at least five (5) Business Days prior thereto); provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to make such mandatory prepayments.








(b)    Application.  Prepayments of Loans made pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or otherwise shall be applied using the Exchange Rate, if applicable, in effect two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment (in the case of any prepayment pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii) through and including Section 3.01(a)(iv) above), if applicable).
Section 3.02    Interest Provisions.  The Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in accordance with the terms set forth below.
(a)    Rates.  Pursuant to an appropriately delivered Borrowing Request or Continuation/Conversion Notice, the Borrower may elect that the Loans accrue interest at a rate per annum:
(i)    on that portion maintained as a ABR Loan, equal to the sum of the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans; and
(ii)    on that portion maintained as a Eurodollar Loan, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, equal to the sum of the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans.
All Eurodollar Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period.  If a Default in respect of Section 10.01(a) has occurred and is continuing at the end of the then-current Interest Periods all Eurodollar Loans shall automatically convert into ABR Loans.
(b)    Post-Default Rates.  If the Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal, interest or other Obligation due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before judgment) on demand at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of principal on any Loan, the rate of interest that otherwise would be applicable to such Loan plus 2.00% per annum; and (ii) in all other cases, at the Alternate Base Rate from time to time in effect, plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans, plus 2.00% per annum.
(c)    Payment Dates.  Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without duplication:

The Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its percentage of Commitments, a fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to 0.50% multiplied by the actual daily amount by which the Commitments exceed outstanding Loans.  The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times until the Final Maturity Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Final Maturity Date.
ARTICLE IV
CERTAIN LIBO RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS
Section 4.01    Eurodollar Rate Lending Unlawful; Illegality.
(a)    If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain, or fund Eurodollar Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon written demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
(b)    If, at any time, it is or becomes illegal (in the reasonable opinion of any Lender) under the laws of any jurisdiction for a Lender to make, to fund or to maintain 








the Loans or a portion of the Loans or to perform its obligations under this Agreement as a result of any illegality due to any economic or financial sanctions administered or enforced by any sanctions authority applicable to a Lender or a Lender is advised in writing by any such sanctions authority that penalties will be imposed by a sanctions authority as a result of such Lender’s participation in the Loan Documents or any other business or financial relationship with the Borrower or the Sponsor, then (i) the Commitment of such Lender will be immediately cancelled and such Lender shall not thereafter be obliged to participate in the making of any Loans, and (ii) the outstanding Loans of such Lender shall become immediately due and payable.
Section 4.02    Deposits Unavailable.  If the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall have determined that (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error):
(a)    Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to it in its relevant market;
(b)    by reason of circumstances affecting its relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to Eurodollar Loans; or
(c)    the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Loan;
then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Sections 2.01, 2.03 and 2.04 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
Section 4.03    Increased Costs.
(a)    Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any Statutory Reserves reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);
(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Tax with respect to this Agreement or any participation in any Loan or Commitment made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments in respect thereof (except (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) any Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or








(iii)    impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans or Commitments made by such Lender or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or Commitment or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or Commitment, or to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 4.03(a) or (b) and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 4.03 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
Section 4.04    Funding Losses.  If any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other 








funds acquired by such Lender to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a Eurodollar Loan) as a result of:
(a)    any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Eurodollar Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;
(b)    any Loans not being made as Eurodollar Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor;
(c)    any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, Eurodollar Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor; or
(d)    any Eurodollar Loans not being prepaid in accordance with any notice delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(i) (as a result of a revocation of such notice or as a result of such payment not being made);
then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days of receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense, which shall include any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.  For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to such Lender under this Section 4.04, such Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded.  Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.
Section 4.05    Taxes.
(a)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Taxes shall be required to be deducted or withheld from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.05) the Administrative Agent or Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.  Without limiting or duplication of the provisions of Section 4.05(a), the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.








(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower.  Without duplication of amounts payable under Section 4.05(a) or Section 4.05(b), the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.05) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of 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)    Status of Lenders.
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the 








Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(I)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(II)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(III)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the 








form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(f)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified 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 4.05, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.05 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender, as the case may be, 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 or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such 








Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.05(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.05(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 4.05(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
(g)    Survival.  Each party’s obligation under this Section 4.05 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 4.06    Payments, Computations, etc.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.  All payments shall be made in the Dollars without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. (Central time) on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower.  Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day (in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Lender, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent.  All interest (including interest on Eurodollar Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a ABR Loan, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days).
Section 4.07    Sharing of Payments.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 Loans and other amounts owing them; 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 (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower (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 setoff 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.
Section 4.08    Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.07 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender and its respective Affiliates under this Section 4.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
Section 4.09    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.03, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of 








any Lender pursuant to Section 4.05, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) 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 4.03 or 4.05, 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)    Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.03, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.05 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 4.09(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, ten (10) Business Day’s prior written 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, and consents required by, Section 13.08), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible 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 paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 13.08;
(ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 4.04) 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 4.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.05, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and
(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.








A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Section 4.10    Benchmark Replacement Setting.  On March 5, 2021 the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of the LIBO Rate’s administrator (“IBA”), announced in a public statement the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-month, 3-month and 6-month LIBO Rate tenor settings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document,
(a)    Replacing LIBO Rate.  On the earlier of (i) the date that all Available Tenors of LIBO Rate have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative and (ii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark is LIBO Rate, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis. 
(b)    Replacing Non-LIBO Rate Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.  At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of ABR based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of ABR.
(c)    Flip Forward.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR 








Transition Event and its related Term SOFR Transition Event Effective Date have occurred prior to the reference time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then Term SOFR plus the Term SOFR Adjustment will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (b) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.  For the avoidance of doubt, any applicable provisions set forth in this Section 4.10 shall apply with respect to any Term SOFR transition pursuant to this paragraph (c) as if such forward-looking term rate was initially determined in accordance herewith including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in clauses (d) of this Section 4.10 and Section 13.19.
(d)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(e)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.10.
(f)    Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBO Rate), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.
(g)    Reaffirmation. The Borrower and Sponsor (and any other obligor that becomes party hereto after the date hereof), in its respective capacity as a Borrower, debtor, obligor, grantor, pledgor, guarantor, assignor, or other similar capacity in which 








such party acts as direct or indirect, or primary or secondary, obligor, accommodation party or guarantor or grants liens or security interests in or to its properties hereunder or under any other Loan Document, hereby acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 4.10 (including, without limitation, the implementation from time to time of any Benchmark Replacement and any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes in accordance herewith) and, in furtherance of the forgoing (and without, in any way express or implied, invalidating, impairing or otherwise negatively affecting any obligations heretofore provided) hereby acknowledges and agrees that in connection with and after giving effect to any Benchmark Cessation Changes:  (i) its Obligations shall not in any way be novated, discharged or otherwise impaired, and shall continue, be ratified and be affirmed and shall remain in full force in effect, (ii) its grant of a guarantee, pledge, assignment or any other accommodation, lien or security interests in or to its properties relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall continue, be ratified and be affirmed, and shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be novated, discharged or otherwise impaired and (iii) the Loan Documents and its obligations thereunder (contingent or otherwise) shall continue, be ratified and be affirmed and shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be novated, discharged or otherwise impaired.  In addition, Borrower hereby fully waives any requirements to notify Borrower of any Benchmark Cessation Changes (except as expressly provided in this Section 4.10).  In furtherance of the foregoing, each of Borrower and Sponsor hereby (i) appoints the Borrower (and the Borrower hereby accepts such appointment) as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for purposes of the delivery of any and all documents, instruments, agreements and other materials required to be delivered by any such party and for all other administrative purposes incidental to any of the foregoing provisions of this clause (g) and Section 4.10 generally, and (ii) hereby authorizes the Borrower to take such actions, execute, acknowledge, and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, such further agreements, documents or instruments that are reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the intent and purpose of this Section (g) and this Section 4.10 generally on its behalf.  From time to time, the Borrower (both in its individual capacity and in its capacity as agent, agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of each other obligor under the Loan Documents pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) and Sponsor and any other obligor under the Loan Documents shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such instruments, agreements, certificates or documents, and take all such actions, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request for the purposes implementing or effectuating the provisions of this Section 4.10, or of renewing, continuing, reaffirming or ratifying the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral.

ARTICLE VI
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans hereunder, the Borrower represents and warrants to each Secured Party, as of the Closing Date and each Drawdown Date, as follows:
Section 6.01    Due Organization, etc.
(a)    The Borrower has been duly formed, is validly existing and, if applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization as identified on Schedule 6.01(a).
(b)    The Borrower has no Subsidiaries.
(c)    The Borrower has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and/or operate and maintain its properties and conduct its business as currently conducted.
(d)    The Borrower is qualified to do business and, if applicable, in good standing in each jurisdiction in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification.
Section 6.02    Taxes.  The Borrower have filed all federal income and other material local, foreign and other Tax returns that are required to be filed and have paid all material Taxes required to be paid and any related material assessments, fines or penalties (except for any such 








Tax, assessment, fine or penalty that is being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, as to which the Borrower has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or IFRS, as applicable, and as to which there are no Liens other than Permitted Liens pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof).  The Borrower is a U.S. Person or an entity disregarded as separate from a U.S. Person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Section 6.03    Compliance with ERISA.  The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and any member of its ERISA Group or its Subsidiaries’ respective ERISA Groups and each Plan and each Pension Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder to the extent that they relate to any such plan.  No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Pension Plan for which the Borrower or its Subsidiaries would have any material liability.  Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Borrower’s ERISA Group or its Subsidiaries’ respective ERISA Groups has incurred or expects to incur any material liabilities (including any contingent, potential or secondary liabilities) under Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 or 4971 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA other than those arising from plan contributions or PBGC premium payments made in the ordinary course.  The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any member of the Borrower’s ERISA Group or its Subsidiaries’ respective ERISA Groups (determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan) did not exceed the aggregate current fair market value of the assets of such Pension Plan.  As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, and any member of the Borrower’s ERISA Group and each of its Subsidiaries’ respective ERISA Groups for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is zero.  The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and any member of the Borrower’s ERISA Group or each of its Subsidiaries’ respective ERISA Groups have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

ARTICLE XII
AGENCY
Section 12.01    Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Rabobank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (for purposes of this Article XII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are referred to, collectively, as the “Agents”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to each such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article XII are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions (it being understood that no Agent assumes nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates).  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to either of the Agents is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law.  Instead such term is used as a 








matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and 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 and (ii) negotiate, enforce or the settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender.
Section 12.02    Rights as a Lender.  In the event the Person serving as the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent hereunder is or becomes a Lender hereunder, such Person 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 an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section 12.03    Exculpatory Provisions.
(a)    Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder and thereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(i)    neither Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)    neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that neither Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iii)    neither Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.








(b)    No Agent Party shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any of them (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 4.08, 10.02, 10.03 and 13.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment.  Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” is given to such Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
(c)    No Agent Party shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, the conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the such Agent.
(d)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Ineligible Assignees.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is an Ineligible Assignee or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Ineligible Assignee.
Section 12.04    Reliance by Agent.  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 (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  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.








Section 12.05    Delegation of Duties.  Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent.  Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article XII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Loans as well as activities as Agent.  Neither Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
Section 12.06    Resignation of Administrative Agent.
(a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article XII and Section 13.03 shall 








continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
Section 12.07    Resignation or Removal of Collateral Agent.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Collateral Agent as provided below, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ written notice thereof to each party hereof.  The Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent shall be effective until:  (i) a successor Collateral Agent is appointed in accordance with this Section 12.07, (ii) the resigning or removed Collateral Agent has transferred to its successor all of its rights and obligations in its capacity as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and (iii) the successor Collateral Agent has executed and delivered an agreement to be bound by the terms hereof and perform all duties required of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and a copy of such agreement has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and (if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) Borrower.  Within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written notice of any resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and, if no Default or Event of Default is then continuing, Borrower shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent.  If no successor Collateral Agent (x) shall have been appointed by the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Borrower and (y) shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Collateral Agent, then the retiring Collateral Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Collateral Agent, which shall be a federally insured U.S. domiciled bank or trust company that has a combined capital surplus of at least $500,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by the successor Collateral Agent, (a) such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (b) the retiring Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all monies and other property within its possession or control to the possession or control of the successor Collateral Agent and shall execute and deliver such notices, instructions and assignments as may be necessary or desirable to transfer the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to the monies to the successor Collateral Agent.  After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent.  Any corporation into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Collateral Agent or its corporate trust operations shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.








Section 12.08    Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.  Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent Party has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent Party to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent Parties have disclosed material information in their possession.
Section 12.09    No Other Duties, etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Agent shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or a Lender.
Section 12.10    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 3.03 and 13.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 3.03 and 13.03.








Section 12.11    Withholding Taxes.  To the extent required by any Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding Tax applicable to such payment.  If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any other reason, or the Administrative Agent has paid over to the Internal Revenue Service applicable withholding Tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any all expenses incurred.
Section 12.12    Erroneous Payments. 
(a)    If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party such Lender (any such Lender, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf)  (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b)    Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party such Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or 








repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:
(i)    (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
(ii)    such Lender or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.12.
(c)    Each Lender or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.
(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf)  (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and 








Assumption by reference pursuant to the Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).
(e)    The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or Sponsor, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or Sponsor for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. 
(f)    To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to  an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine
(g)    Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.12 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the 








Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.  THE AGENT PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY 








THE AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM.  IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGENT PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE BORROWER’S OR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY AGENT PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (AS OPPOSED TO DIRECT OR ACTUAL DAMAGES).
(ii)    Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes hereof.  Each Lender agrees (A) to provide to Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication), promptly after the date of this Agreement, an e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.
(iii)    Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices of a Borrowing) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (A) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (B) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses, and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower.  Administrative Agent may record all telephonic notices to, and other telephonic communications with, Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
Section 13.03    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
(a)    Costs and Expenses.  The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all expenses incurred by each Agent and the Arranger in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein and the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) all expenses incurred by the Lenders and 








the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications, or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, including the reasonable documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for Administrative Agent, and of such consultants, advisors, appraisers and auditors retained or engaged by Administrative Agent (provided, if no Event of Default then exists, such retention or engagement is permitted by this Agreement or otherwise approved by a Borrower), whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated; (iii) all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any advisors to Administrative Agent and counsel for Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of such Person’s rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the Collateral, including its rights under this Section 13.03, and including in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, workout, restructuring, or negotiations in respect thereof, and (iv) all reasonable documented costs, expenses, taxes, assessments, and other charges incurred by any Agent in connection with any filing, registration, recording, or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document or any other document referred to therein or any audit, verification, inspection or appraisal of the Collateral.
(b)    Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Arranger in its separate capacity as arranger with respect to the syndication of the Loans, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and related expenses, including the reasonable documented 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any payments that Administrative Agent is required to make under any indemnity issued to any bank holding the Borrower’s deposit, commodity or security accounts, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any Project or property owned or operated by Borrower, or any Environmental Liabilities and Costs related in any way to the Borrower, or (v) 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 non-appealable judgment to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(c)    Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 13.03(a) or (b) to be 








paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) any Related Party of the Administrative Agent, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Total Credit Exposure at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); 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 the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent).
(d)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, etc.  To the fullest 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, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee referred to in Section 13.03(b) shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
(e)    Payments.  All amounts due under this Section 13.03 shall be payable not later than thirty (30) days after demand therefor.
(f)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.03 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder.
Section 13.04    Survival.  All covenants, agreements, certifications, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein or in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any default or incorrect certification, representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date.  The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05 and 13.03, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 12.01, Sections 13.12 and 13.13 shall in each case survive any assignment from one Lender to another (in the case of Section 13.03) and the occurrence of the Termination Date or the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.  The representations and warranties made by the Borrower in each Loan Document to which it is a party shall survive the execution and delivery of such Loan Document; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to mean any representation or warranty set forth herein shall be deemed made as of any date later than the date of this Agreement (or such other date as to which any such representation explicitly relates).








Section 13.05    Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document 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 13.06    Headings.  The various headings of each Loan Document are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of such Loan Document or any provisions thereof.
Section 13.07    Binding Effect; Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.
(a)    This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each party hereto and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
(b)    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 and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between and 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 5.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when 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 permitted hereby.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
(c)    The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.








Section 13.08    Successors and Assigns.
(a)    Generally.  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, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.08(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.08(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 13.08(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  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, Participants to the extent provided in Section 13.08(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time 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 and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    Minimum Amounts.
(A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in Section 13.08(b)(i)(B) in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in Section 13.08(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts.  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 with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)    Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 13.08(b)(i)(B) and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund; and
(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments other than assignments to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund.
(iv)    Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall (A) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (B) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together in each case with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)    No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) an Ineligible Assignee, (B) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or (C) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries.
(vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.
(vii)    Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as 








appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this Section 13.08(b)(vii), then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 4.03, 4.05 and 13.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 Section 13.07(d).
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, administrative details information with respect to such Eligible Assignee (unless the Eligible Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 13.07(b)(iv), if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly record each assignment made in accordance with this Section in the Register.  No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register provided in this Section 13.07(c).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.








(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the reimbursement obligations under Section 13.03(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; 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 requiring the consent of all Lenders, as set forth in Section 13.01, that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.03, 4.05 and 4.09 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.07(b); provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.09 as if it were an assignee under Section 13.07(b).  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.07 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans, Commitments or other rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (each such register, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of any Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other rights or obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other right or obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.  The entries in a Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
(e)    Limitations upon Participant Rights.  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.03 and 4.05 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 or the greater payment results from a Change in Law after the date the participation was sold.  A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.05 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 4.09 as though it were a Lender.
(f)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may 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; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
Section 13.09    Other Transactions.  Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates in which the Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.
Section 13.10    Independence of Covenants and Default Provisions.  All covenants and default provisions contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be given independent effect such that, in the event a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants or default provisions, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant or default provision shall not, unless expressly so provided in such first covenant or default provision, avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or such condition exists.
Section 13.11    Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (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, and further that each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 13.11 by its Related Parties); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any 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 13.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or the Loans or (ii) the 








CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans; (h) with the consent of the Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 13.11, (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower which is not known by the applicable Administrative Agent or Lender to be bound by a confidential relationship with or obligation of confidentiality to the Borrower or by a confidentiality or other similar agreement or (z) is independently developed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates.
For purposes of this Section 13.11, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  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 accords to its own confidential information concerning its portfolio of privately placed notes and loans.
Section 13.12    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; etc.
(a)    Governing Law.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.
(b)    Jurisdiction.  The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may

(a)    Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act 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, address and tax identification number of the Borrower and other information regarding the Borrower that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any such party to any other party hereto under or in connection with the Loan Documents may be subject to Bail-In Action by the relevant Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the effect of:
(a)    any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability, including (without limitation):
(i)    a reduction, in full or in part, in the principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in respect of any such liability;
(ii)    a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred on, it; and
(i)    a cancellation of any such liability; and
(b)    a variation of any term of any Loan Document to the extent necessary to give effect to any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability.
Section 13.16    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its applicable Affiliates’ understanding, that (a) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (b) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (c) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to any of the transactions 








contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the Arranger has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (d) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (e) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate.  The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.
Section 13.17    Judgment Currency.
(a)    The obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to it under this Agreement or another Loan Document.  If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Borrower in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or, if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).
(b)    If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, or remit, or cause to be remitted, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.








(c)    For purposes of determining any rate of exchange or currency equivalent for this Section 13.17, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.
Section 13.18    Scope of Liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 13.18), there shall be no recourse against Sponsor or any of its respective Affiliates (except the Borrower), or the members or other owners, officers, directors or employees of any of them (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”), for any liability to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising in connection with any breach or default under this Agreement except to the extent the same is enforced against the Borrower and the Collateral and the rents, issues, profits, proceeds and products of the Collateral, and the Lenders shall look solely to the Borrower (but not to any Non-Recourse Party or to any distributions received by any Non-Recourse Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement except as provided herein and in the other Loan Documents) and the Collateral and the rents, issues, profits, proceeds and products of the Collateral in enforcing rights and obligations under and in connection with the Loan Documents; provided that (a) the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.18 shall not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any of the Indebtedness, or of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, or provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (but without personal liability to the Non-Recourse Parties except as provided herein and therein), and the same shall continue until the Commitments have been terminated and all Obligations have been fully paid, discharged, observed, or performed; (b) the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.18 shall not limit or restrict the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders to name the Borrower or any other Person as a defendant in any action or suit for a judicial foreclosure or for the exercise of any other remedy under or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or otherwise, or for injunction or specific performance, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment shall be enforced against any Non-Recourse Party out of any property, assets or funds other than the Collateral and the rents, issues, profits, proceeds or products of the Collateral, and any other property of the Borrower; and (c) the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.18 shall not affect or diminish or constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any specific written obligation, covenant, or agreement made by any of the Non-Recourse Parties or any security granted by the Non-Recourse Parties in support of the obligations of such Persons under any guarantee or any security granted by the Non-Recourse Parties in support of the obligations of such Persons of the obligations of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing contained in this Section 13.18 shall be deemed to (i) limit or restrict any right or remedy of the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or successor thereto) with respect to, and the Borrower and all of the other Persons described above shall remain fully liable to the extent that such Person would otherwise be liable for its own actions with respect to any fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence or (ii) limit in any respect the enforceability against the Borrower of the Loan Documents in accordance with their respective terms.

(i)    such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments or this Agreement;

(iv)    such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
(b)    In addition, (I) unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (II) if such sub-clause (i) is not true with respect to a Lender and such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or Sponsor, or any other obligor under the Loan Documents, that none of the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or any other documents related hereto or thereto.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default, all rights of the Pledgor to receive and retain any such distributions shall cease, and all such rights shall be vested in the Collateral Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.

Subject to the remedies set forth in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), without notice to the Pledgor (except as required by Applicable Law) and at such times as the Collateral Agent may determine, exercise any or all of the Pledgor’s rights in, to and under, or in any way connected to, the Pledged Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall otherwise have and may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise all of the rights, powers, privileges and remedies with respect to the Pledged Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights, powers, privileges and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights, powers, privileges and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law or in equity, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and the Pledgor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right).
(b)    Specific Remedies.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the remedies set forth in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:
(i)    the Collateral Agent in its discretion may require the Pledgor to, and the Pledgor shall, assemble the Pledged Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor, designated in the Collateral Agent’s request; and
(ii)    the Collateral Agent in its discretion may, to the fullest extent provided by Applicable Law, have a court having jurisdiction appoint a receiver, which receiver shall take charge and possession of and protect, preserve and replace the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and manage and operate the same and receive and collect all income, receipts, royalties, revenues, issues and profits therefrom (it being agreed that 
13



Execution Version

the Pledgor irrevocably consents and shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably consented to the appointment thereof, and upon such appointment, the Pledgor shall immediately deliver possession of such Pledged Collateral to such receiver).
Section 5.02    Sale of Pledged Collateral.
(a)    Terms of Sales.  Without limiting the generality of Section 5.01 and subject to Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, without notice except as specified below, sell the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or at any of the Collateral Agent’s corporate trust offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sale on the market price of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale.  Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.  The Pledgor agrees that at least ten (10) days’ notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.  The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefore and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.  The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale.  The Pledgor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the sale of the Pledged Collateral may not have been conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.
(b)    Private Sales.  The Pledgor recognizes that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, subject to Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, elect to sell all or any part of the Pledged Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and the Pledgor hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, any claims against the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such private sale to an unrelated third party was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.  The Pledgor and the Collateral Agent agreed that such private sales shall be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent has no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay sale of any Pledged Collateral to permit the issuer thereof to register the Pledged Collateral for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act.  If the 
14



Execution Version

Collateral Agent exercises its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Collateral, upon written request the Pledgor shall, from time to time, furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as is necessary in order to determine the LLC Interests, any other interests in the Pledged Collateral and any other instruments included in the Pledged Collateral which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
Section 5.03    Purchase of Pledged Collateral.  The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be a purchaser of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof or any right or interest therein at any sale thereof, whether pursuant to foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise hereunder and the Collateral Agent may apply the purchase price to the payment of the Secured Obligations.  Any purchaser of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the Pledged Collateral so purchased, free of the security interests created by this Agreement.
Section 5.04    Application of Proceeds; Deficiency.  After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall apply any proceeds from time to time held by it and the net proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale with respect to the Pledged Collateral to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority:  first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Collateral Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by the Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of the Pledgor, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties; and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of the Pledgor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
Section 5.05    Notice.  The Collateral Agent shall within a reasonable period of time thereafter give the Pledgor notice of any action taken under this Article V; provided, however, that (a) failure to give such notice shall have no effect on the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder and (b) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if the Pledgor is the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding or if the delivery of such notice is otherwise prohibited by Applicable Law.
Section 5.06    Enforcement Expenses.  The Pledgor agrees to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket documented expenses (including reasonable legal fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement.

(v)    any act or omission of the Collateral Agent or any other Person (other than payment of the Secured Obligations) that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of the Company or any part of the Secured Obligations or any security (including any letter of credit) for all or any part of the Secured Obligations by operation of law or otherwise;

The  Company  hereby  expressly  waives,  to  the maximum extent permitted by law, (i) promptness, diligence, presentment, demand for payment or performance and protest, (ii) filing of claims with any court, (iii) any proceeding to enforce any  provision  of  the  Loan  Documents,  (iv)  notice  of  acceptance  of  and  reliance  on  this Agreement by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, (v) notice of the creation of any Secured Obligations, and (except with respect to any notice required by the Loan Documents relating to the Secured Obligations) any other notice whatsoever, (vi) any requirement that the Collateral Agent exhaust any right, power or remedy, or proceed or take any other action against the Company under any Loan Document to which the Company is a party or any Lien on, or any claim of payment against, any property of the Company or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or any other Person under any guarantee of, or Lien securing, or claim for payment of, any of the Secured Obligations, (vii) any right to require a proceeding by the Collateral Agent first against the Company, whether to marshal any assets or to exhaust any right security for all or any part of the Secured Obligations, even though such foreclosure, sale or election  of  remedies  may impair the subrogation  rights  of the  Company or may preclude the Company from obtaining reimbursement, contribution, indemnification or other recovery from the Company and even though the Company may or may not, as a result of such foreclosure, sale or election of remedies, be liable for any deficiency;
(c)    Additional Waivers.   The Company hereby expressly waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law:

Subject to the remedies set forth in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), without notice to the Company (except as required by applicable Law) and at such times as the Collateral Agent may determine, exercise any or all of the Company’s rights in, to and under, or in any way connected to, the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall otherwise have and may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise all of the rights, powers, privileges and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights, powers, privileges and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which the Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights, powers, privileges and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law or in equity, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and the Company agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right).
16
			
	PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT









(b)    Specific Remedies.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the remedies set forth in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:
(i)    the Collateral Agent in its discretion may require the Company to, and the Company shall, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and the Company, designated in the Collateral Agent’s request; and
(ii)    the Collateral Agent in its discretion may, to the fullest extent provided by Law, have a court having jurisdiction appoint a receiver, which receiver shall take charge and possession of and protect, preserve and replace the Collateral or any part thereof, and manage and operate the same and receive and collect all income, receipts, royalties, revenues, issues and profits therefrom (it being agreed that the Company irrevocably consents and shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably consented to the appointment thereof, and upon such appointment, the Company shall immediately deliver possession of such Collateral to such receiver).
Section 5.02    Sale of Collateral.
(a)    Terms of Sales.  Without limiting the generality of Section 5.01 above and subject to Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or at any of the Collateral Agent’s corporate trust offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery and  at  such  price  or  prices  and  upon  such  other  terms  as  are  commercially  reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sale on the market price of the Collateral at any such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of the Company, and the Company hereby waives (to the extent permitted by Law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.  The Company agrees that at least ten (10) days’ notice to the Company of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.   The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefore and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.  The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale.   The Company hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the sale of the Collateral may not have been conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.
(b)    Private Sales.   The Company recognizes that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, subject to Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement, elect to sell all or any part of the Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the 
17
			
	PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT









distribution or resale thereof.  The Company acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and the Company hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law, any claims against the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such private sale to an unrelated third party was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.  The Company and the Collateral Agent agree that such  private  sales  shall  be  conducted  in  a  commercially  reasonable  manner  and  that  the Collateral Agent has no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay sale of any Collateral to permit the issuer thereof to register the Collateral for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act.  If the Collateral Agent exercises its right to sell any or all of the Collateral, upon written request the Company shall, from time to time, furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as is necessary in order to determine the limited liability company interests, any other interests in the Collateral and any other instruments included in the Collateral which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.
Section 5.03    Purchase of Collateral.  The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be a purchaser of the Collateral or any part thereof or any right or interest therein at any sale thereof, whether pursuant to foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise hereunder and the Collateral Agent may apply the purchase price to the payment of the Secured Obligations.  Any purchaser of all or any part of the Collateral shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the Collateral so purchased, free of the security interests created by this Agreement.
Section 5.04    Application of Proceeds; Deficiency.  After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall apply any proceeds from time to time  held  by  it  and  the  net  proceeds  of  any  collection,  recovery,  receipt,  appropriation, realization or sale with respect to the Collateral to the payment of the Secured Obligations in the following order of priority:  first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation to the Collateral Agent’s agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification hereunder (in its capacity as the Collateral Agent and not as a Lender) and all advances made by the Collateral Agent hereunder for the account of the Company, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof; second, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties; and third, to the extent of any excess of such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of the Company or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Section 5.05    Notice.   The Collateral Agent shall within a reasonable period of time thereafter give the Company notice of any action taken under this Article V; provided, however, that (a) failure to give such notice shall have no effect on the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder and (b) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if the Company is the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding or if the delivery of such notice is otherwise prohibited by applicable Law.
Section 5.06    Enforcement Expenses.   The Company agrees to pay or reimburse the Collateral Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable legal fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement.
Section 5.07    Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral.
(a)    Adverse Claims.    The Company shall  defend,  all  at  its  own  cost and expense, the Company’s title and the existence, perfection and priority of the Collateral Agent’s (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interests in the Collateral of the Company against all adverse claims (subject to any Permitted Liens).
(b)    Assigned Agreements.
(i)    Upon the request of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) at any time after the occurrence and the continuation of an Event of Default, the Company shall notify the parties to any Assigned Agreement that is not subject to a Lender Consent that such Assigned Agreement has been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent.
(ii)    In the event of a default by the Company in the performance of any of its obligations under any Assigned Agreement, or upon the occurrence or non- occurrence of any event or condition under any such Assigned Agreement that would immediately or with the passage of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, enable another  party of such  Assigned  Agreement to  terminate  or suspend its performance  under  such  Assigned  Agreement,  the  Collateral  Agent  (acting  at  the direction of the Required Lenders) may (but shall not be obligated to), with prior written notice to the Company (it being acknowledged and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if the Company is the subject of an insolvency or liquidation proceeding or if the delivery of such notice is otherwise prohibited by Applicable Law), cure any such default, cause the performance of such obligations or otherwise remedy such event or condition, and the reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of outside counsel) of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by or on behalf of the Company.
(c)    Intellectual Property.
(i)    For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 4.11 at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies (for the avoidance of doubt, only during the 
19
			
	PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT









continuation of an Event of Default), and for no other purpose, the Company hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, royalty-free, non- exclusive, world-wide license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company.
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents that limit the rights of the Company to dispose of its property, so long as no instruction by the Required Lenders has been delivered in connection with an Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing, the Company will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of the Company.   Upon the release of the Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the license granted pursuant to clause (i) above shall be automatically transferred from the Collateral Agent to the Company. The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 4.09 by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Company in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (ii).
(d)    Voting; Distributions
(i)    Voting Rights.  Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall have given notice to the Company of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under this Section 5.07(d)(i) (it being acknowledged and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if the Company is the subject of an insolvency or  liquidation  proceeding),  the Company shall  be entitled  to  exercise all voting and other rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that no vote with respect to the Pledged Collateral shall be cast, right exercised or other action taken which would be inconsistent with, or result in any violation of, any provision of any of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and after notice thereof from the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) to the Company (it being acknowledged and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to deliver any such notice if the Company is the subject of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), all voting and other rights of the Company with respect to the Pledged Collateral which the Company would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise shall  cease,  and  all  such rights  shall  be vested  in  the Collateral  Agent  which  shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.
(ii)    Distributions.    Any and  all  distributions paid  in  respect  of the Pledged Collateral shall be paid only to the extent permitted, and then strictly in accordance  with,  the  Loan  Documents.    To  the  extent  that  such  distributions  and payments are made in cash and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, the further distribution or payment of such monies shall not give rise to any claims or causes of action on the part of any of the Secured Parties against the Company seeking the return or disgorgement of any such distributions or other payments unless the 
20
			
	PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT









distributions or payments involve or result from the fraud or willful misconduct of the Company.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all rights of the Company to receive and retain any such distributions shall cease, and all such rights shall be vested in the Collateral Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.
(iii)     Turnover.  All distributions and other amounts which are received by the Company contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be received in trust for  the  benefit  of  the  Collateral  Agent  on  behalf  of  the  Secured  Parties,  shall  be segregated from other funds of the Company and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral  Agent  as  Pledged  Collateral  in  the  same  form  as  so  received  (with  any necessary endorsement).

FORM OF LENDER CONSENT
NOTICE AND CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT
[           ] , 202[   ]
Reference is hereby made to those certain agreements listed in Schedule A hereto (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof, collectively, the “Contracts” and each a “Contract”) between                        (“Contracting  Party”),  and  Redaptive  Financial,  LLC  (assignee  of  Redaptive Services, LLC) (“Redaptive”).   Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the same meaning as set forth in the Credit Agreement (defined below).
Redaptive hereby gives Contracting Party notice and Contracting Party hereby acknowledges receipt of notice that Redaptive will assign to its affiliate Redaptive Capital I, LLC (“Redaptive Capital”) all of its rights and obligations in and under the Contracts, and Redaptive Capital will contemporaneously collaterally assign to COÖPERATIEVE RABOBANK U.A., NEW YORK BRANCH, whose offices are at 245 Park Avenue, Floor 36, New York City, New York 10167 (together with its successors and  assigns,  the “Lender”),  all of its  rights in the Contracts, including the right to receive any amounts payable thereunder as security for a loan about to be made by Lender to Redaptive Capital pursuant to the Credit Agreement by and among Redaptive Capital, Lender, and the various financial institutions listed on Schedule I thereto and other financial institutions and Persons from time to time party thereto as lenders dated as of June        ,2021 (the “Credit Agreement”) and the Security Agreement by and between Redaptive Capital and Lender, dated as of June        , 2021 (the “Security Agreement”).  Contracting Party hereby consents to such assignments and agrees to make payment of any and all payments due or to become due under the Contracts to Redaptive as provided in the Contracts until Lender instructs Contracting Party otherwise in writing.
In recognition of Lender’s reliance upon this Notice and Consent to Assignment in making the loan or loans to Redaptive Capital to enable Redaptive Capital to satisfy its obligations under the Contracts, Contracting Party hereby certifies, confirms and agrees as follows as of the date hereof:
That the Contracts are in full force and effect and, no modification, amendment or supplement to the Contracts has been made, and that the Contracts represent the sole agreements between Redaptive Capital and Contracting Party respecting the subject matter thereof and the payments due to  Redaptive Capital  thereunder.    Any future modification,  termination,  amendment  or supplement  to  the  Contracts  of  a  material  nature,  which  could  reasonably  be  expected  to adversely affect the Lender, or settlement of amounts due thereunder shall be ineffective without Lender’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  There are no existing breaches, defaults, events of default or similar under any of the Contracts that have not been cured or waived.








That Lender has not assumed any of the obligations of Redaptive Capital and Lender shall not be responsible in any way for the performance by Redaptive or any other party of the terms and conditions of the Contracts; provided, however, Lender may assume obligations of Redaptive Capital in its sole discretion under a Contract if Redaptive Capital has defaulted under such Contract.
That Lender, in the exercise of its rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement and/or Security Agreement, is entitled to the benefits of each and every right accorded Redaptive Capital in and under the Contracts, including but not limited to remedies, inspection rights, indemnity rights, right to give consent, right to receive payment of costs and expenses incurred in exercising rights and  remedies  following  any  event  of  default,  right  to  receive  material  notices  and  other documents required to be furnished by Contracting Party to Redaptive under the Contracts. Further, Contracting Party will not terminate any Contract or suspend performance of its services under any Contract on account of any default or breach of Redaptive Capital thereunder, or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition under such Contract which would immediately or with the passage of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, entitle Contracting Party to terminate any Contract or suspend performance thereunder (such default, breach, event or condition, a “Default”), without written notice to Lender and first providing to Lender or its designee(s) (i) a reasonable period from receipt of such notice to cure such Default if such Default is the failure to pay amounts to Contracting Party which are due and payable by Redaptive Capital under such Contract, or (ii) a reasonable opportunity after receipt of such notice to cure such Default if the Default cannot be cured by the payment of money to Contracting Party so long as Lender shall have promptly commenced to cure the Default and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion and continues to perform any monetary obligations under such  Contract, and all other material obligations under such Contract are performed by Redaptive Capital or Lender (or its assignee(s) or designee(s)).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Default is peculiar to Redaptive Capital and not curable by Lender, such as the insolvency, bankruptcy, general assignment for the benefit of the creditors, or  appointment  of  a  receiver,  trustee,  custodian  or  liquidator  of  Redaptive  Capital  or  its properties, then, notwithstanding any right that Contracting Party may have to terminate such Contract, Lender shall be entitled to assume the rights and obligations of Redaptive Capital under  such  Contract  as  provided  in  clause  (ii)  above,  and  provided  such  assumption  has occurred, Contracting Party shall not be entitled to terminate such Contract as a result of such Default.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, Contracting Party agrees that it will not terminate any Contract solely by reason of the commencement or pendency of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceedings in respect of Redaptive Capital. In the event that any Contract is rejected or terminated by a trustee or debtor-in-possession in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or if any Contract is terminated for any reason other than a Default which could have been cured by Collateral Agent (or its assignee(s) or designee(s)) as provided herein, and if, after such rejection or termination (including a commercially reasonable period of time for Contracting Party to secure its rights under such bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding), the Lender or its successors or assigns shall so request, Contracting Party will execute and deliver to Lender or its assignee(s) or designee(s) a new contract, which contract shall be on the same terms and conditions as the original Contract for the remaining term of the original Contract before giving effect to such termination (subject to any conforming changes 
Exhibit J-2






necessitated by the substitution of parties, cure of any Default (limited solely to Defaults for payment or related obligations) by Redaptive (or any agent thereof, including a trustee or debtor-in-possession)  and  other  changes  as  the  parties  may  mutually  and  reasonably  agree,  the “Replacement Agreement”).
Contracting Party does not have the right to terminate, cancel or buyout any Contracts for any reason other than as specified in the Contracts.
That  Contracting  Party  will  provide  to  Lender,  copies  of  any material  notice  delivered  by Contracting Party to Redaptive Capital under the Contracts, including any notice or other communication relating to a dispute thereunder. All such copies shall be sent to Lender at its address above.
That this Notice and Consent to Assignment constitutes the prior written consent of Contracting Party to the assignments to Redaptive Capital and to Lender required pursuant to the Contracts.
Exhibit J-3







IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto by their officers thereunto duly authorized, have duly executed this NOTICE AND CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT as of the date first set forth above.
