Section 1.05.  Conflict Between Credit Documents.If there is any conflict between this Agreement and any other Credit Document, this Agreement and such other Credit Document shall be interpreted and construed, if possible, so as to avoid or minimize such conflict but, to the extent (and only to the extent) of such conflict, this Agreement shall prevail and control.  Section 1.06.  Legal Representation of the Parties.This Agreement was negotiated by the parties with the benefit of legal representation and any rule of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement or any other Credit Document to be construed or interpreted against any party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof or thereof.  ARTICLE 2COMMITMENT  Section 2.01.Commitment.Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally commits, from the Closing Date to the Commitment Termination Date, to make revolving loans (collectively, Loans) to the Borrower, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time the outstanding amount of such Lenders Commitment with respect to the Loans; provided that the Lenders shall not be required to make any Loans hereunder if, after giving effect thereto and to the receipt and application by the Borrower of the proceeds of such Loans, the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Loans would exceed the lesser of (a) the Maximum Commitment and (b) the Maximum Advance Amount at such time. Subject to the preceding limitation and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay, repay and reborrow Loans.  Section 2.02. Voluntary Reductions or Termination of the Maximum Commitment.  (a)Each Lenders commitment to make Loans hereunder shall automatically terminate, and the Maximum Commitment shall be reduced to zero, upon the Commitment Termination Date. The Borrower may voluntarily, from time to time, permanently reduce the amount of the Maximum Commitment upon at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of such reduction, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided that (i) no reduction may reduce the Maximum Commitment below $25,000,000 unless the Maximum Commitment is reduced to zero; (ii) any partial reduction of the Maximum Commitment shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 for amounts in excess  3


thereof; (iii) no such reduction shall reduce the Maximum Commitment to an amount less than the sum of the then aggregate outstanding Loans and (iv) any such reduction shall be applied to reduce pro rata each Lenders Commitment.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt of any such notice and the pro ratareduction of such Lenders Commitment.  (b)Concurrently with any reduction in the Maximum Commitment or termination of the Lenders Commitment to make Loans hereunder prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date for whatever reason (including following the occurrence of an Event of Default), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the applicable Make Whole Fee; provided  that, in no event shall any Make Whole Fee be payable in connection with any reduction or termination of the Maximum Commitment by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Section 2.04.  Section 2.03Fees.  (a)Setup Fee.The Borrower shall pay to DBNY a Setup Fee in the amount and at the times set forth in the Setup Fee Agreement.  (b)Commitment Fee. From and after the NAV Trigger Date, the Borrower shall pay the applicable Commitment Fee to the Administrative Agent, for account of the Lenders, on each Payment Date and on the Commitment Termination Date.  (c)Administrative Agents Fee. The Borrower shall pay fees to the Administrative Agent at such time and in such amount as separately agreed in a fee letter between Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  Section 2.04. Commitment Reduction and Termination.For so long as the NAV Trigger Date has not occurred, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of and at the direction of the Lenders) may reduce the Commitment in whole or in part upon 90 days prior written notice to Borrower and to each Lender; provided  that no such reduction shall be effective if the NAV Trigger Date shall otherwise occur during such 90 day notice period.  Any such reduction of the Commitment shall result in an equivalent reduction of the Maximum Commitment.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if on the effective date of such reduction the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Loans exceeds the Maximum Commitment, then no later than on such effective date, Borrower shall repay a principal amount of Loans (together with accrued interest on such repaid principal portion) such that immediately thereafter the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding shall not be greater than the Maximum Commitment.  4


ARTICLE 3LOANS AND LENDER NOTE  Section 3.01.  Borrowing Procedure for Loans.  (a) Subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent and the other terms of this Agreement, the Lenders will fund Loans to, and only to, the Custodial Account upon receipt of timely and irrevocable written Borrowing Requests prior to the Commitment Termination Date, certified by an Authorized Representative of the Borrower and a Responsible Officer (which could be the same person as the Authorized Representative) as specified in Section 4.02(b) (Borrowing Request) specifying the amount and Business Day requested for funding; provided that the Borrower shall deliver not more than one (1) Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent on any Business Day. Such Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount equal to (A) $500,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 for amounts in excess thereof or (B) if less than the amount specified in (A), the aggregate Unused Amount at such time. Any such request shall be made by either delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request or an Authorized Representative providing to the Administrative Agent a telephonic request for a Borrowing (which request shall be promptly confirmed by means of a written Borrowing Request), in each case no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) not less than one (1) Business Day preceding the date of the requested Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Lenders of the receipt of each Borrowing Request, specifying the amount of each Loan as well as such Lenders Applicable Percentage of such Loan. Such notices to Lenders shall be given by telephone and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by facsimile.  (b)Funding by the Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent.The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any Loans available to the Borrower unless and until such Loans have been made available to the Administrative Agent by the relevant Lenders.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its share available on such date in accordance with Section 3.01(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if such Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, 5% per annum, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Loan in accordance with Section 3.04. If the Borrower and such Lender shall  5


pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lenders Loan included or equal to the Borrowing, as the case may be. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.  (c)Payments by the 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 the Lenders severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to any Lenders, in immediately available funds 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 Overnight Rate. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  Section 3.02.  Notes.Upon the request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, each Loan made by a Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to the product of (x) the Maximum Commitment and (y) such Lenders Applicable Percentage, and dated as of the date such notice is issued, executed by the Borrower and substantially in the form of Exhibit B (the Notes). Upon the request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender through the Administrative Agent a Note, which shall evidence such Lenders Loans to the Borrower. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, amount, maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.  Section 3.03.  Principal Payments.  (a)The Borrower shall repay in full all Loans on the Maturity Date unless payment is sooner required hereunder and such repayment shall be applied pro rata to each outstanding Loan, except in connection with a voluntary repayment, in which case each repayment shall be made in the order specified in clause (b)(i) below.  (b)Prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower:  6


(i)may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any Loans made as part of any particular Borrowing; provided  that:  (A)no such prepayment may be made which, after giving effect thereto, would result in the aggregate outstanding principal amount thereof being less than $1,000,000 (unless repaid in full) or other than an integral multiple of $1,000 for amounts in excess thereof;  (B)each such voluntary prepayment shall require prior written notice specifying the date and amount of such prepayment (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent, not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of such notice, and of the amount of such prepayment that will be applied to each Lender; and  (C)any such prepayment of principal shall be applied pro rata to each outstanding Loan.  (ii)shall immediately repay all Loans upon any acceleration of the maturity of the Loans in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.02 (Action if Bankruptcy) or 7.03 (Action if Other Event of Default) and such repayment shall be applied pro rata to each outstanding Loan; and  (iii)shall, not later than the applicable time set forth in Section 7.01(b), repay Loans to the extent required to satisfy the Overcollateralization Test at all times and such repayment shall be applied pro rata to each outstanding Loan.  (c)Prepayment Compensation. A prepayment of any Loan for any reason (whether voluntary or mandatory) shall in all cases be accompanied by (i) accrued but unpaid interest thereon and (ii) the payment determined in accordance with Section 3.04(c) (Compensation).  Section 3.04.  Interest.  (a)Interest Rules and Calculations. (i) The unpaid principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall at all times be the Weighted Average Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin.  7


(ii)All overdue principal and overdue interest in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Weighted Average Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin plus 2%.  (iii)Interest shall accrue with respect to each outstanding Loan at the interest rate applicable to each Interest Reset Period and shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date.  (iv)All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 9.08 (Calculations; Computations).  (v)The Administrative Agent, shall upon determining the applicable interest rate for any Borrowing of Loans for any Interest Reset Period, promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof.  In no event shall the rate of interest applicable to any Loan or any other amount due hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law, and the interest rate specified above shall, if necessary, be reduced to such maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law.  (b)Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (i) In the event that (x) in the case of Section 3.04(b)(A) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of Section 3.04(b)(B) and (C) below, a Lender, shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon the Borrower):  (A)on any date for determining the Weighted Average Rate for any Interest Reset Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate;  (B)at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loans (other than any reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges), because of (x) Change in Law, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Weighted Average Rate or (y) other circumstances occurring after the Closing Date affecting the interbank Eurodollar market or any other applicable market or the position of such Lender in such market and in each case notified the Administrative Agent thereof; or  8


(C)at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan bearing interest determined by reference to the Weighted Average Rate has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any accounting standard, Law or guideline (or would conflict with any such accounting standard, Law or guideline not having the force of law but with which such Lender customarily complies even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) and such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent thereof;  then, and in any such event, affected Loans (which in the case of clause (A) shall be all Loans and in the case of clauses (B) and (C) shall be Loans made, or to be made from any affected Lender) bearing interest determined by reference to the Weighted Average Rate shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, and any Borrowing Request given by the Borrower with respect to Loans which have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, and (x) in the case of clauses Section 3.04(b)(i)(A) and (B) above, the Borrower shall pay to the affected Lenders, within 10 days of receipt of written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating (including by converting all affected Loans to Base Rate Loans), interest or otherwise as the relevant Lender shall determine) as shall be required to compensate the relevant Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties thereto) and (y) in the case of clauses (B) and Section 3.04(b)(i)(C) above, the Borrower shall take the actions specified in Section 3.04(b)(ii) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by Law.  (ii)At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.04(b)(i)(B) or (C) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Loan affected pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i)(C) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.), the Borrower shall) if the affected Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel such Borrowing from the affected Lenders by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i)(B) or (C) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.), or if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least two (2) Business Days written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the  9


Administrative Agent, require each such Loan to be converted into a Base Rate Loan.  (iii)If any Lender shall have reasonably determined in good faith that after the Closing Date, the adoption or effectiveness of any applicable accounting standard, or any Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any thereof by any accounting board or Governmental Authority (including any standards board, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof), or compliance by such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, board, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders (or such controlling corporations) capital or assets as a consequence of its commitment to lend to a level below that which such Lender (or such controlling corporation) would have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lenders (or such controlling corporations) policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, as applicable (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender, as applicable, (or such controlling corporation) for such reduction.  (iv)If any Lender seeks payment of additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) above, the Borrower may together with payment of all such additional amounts, (a) prepay all Loans for which such Lender seeks payment of additional amounts without payment of any prepayment compensation pursuant to (c) (Compensation) with respect to such Loans and (b) upon such prepayment, reduce the Maximum Commitment in an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment without payment of a Make Whole Fee.  (v)For avoidance of doubt, any interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or any other change in foreign or domestic generally accepted accounting principles that would require the consolidation of some or all of the assets of the Borrower, including the assets and liabilities which are the subject of this Agreement, with those of any Lender, shall constitute a change in the interpretation of a regulation subject to this Section 3.04(b).  (c)Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its  10


Loans, but excluding in any event the loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a Borrowing of Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Borrowing Request (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(i) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.)), (ii) if any prepayment, repayment or conversion of any of its Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower or (iv) as a consequence of (c) any other default by the Borrower to repay its Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement (including an Event of Default resulting in acceleration of the maturity of the Loans hereunder) or (d) an action taken pursuant to Section 3.04(b)(ii) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.). A Lenders basis for requesting compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) and a Lenders calculation of the amount thereof shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on the Borrower. With respect to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the compensation owed to the relevant Lender shall be equal to (x) the product of (1) the amount of the applicable Loans made by the relevant Lender, (2) the excess (if any) of (A) the Weighted Average Rate applicable to such Loans over (B) LIBID applicable to a period equal to the number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable to such Loans and (3) the number of days remaining in the Interest Period applicable to such Loans, divided by (y) 360.  (d)Change of Lending Office; Limitation on Indemnities.  (i)The Lenders agree that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.04(b)(i)(B) or Section 3.04(b)(i)(C) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.) or Section 3.06 (Net Payments; Taxes) with respect to any Lender, it shall, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 3.04(d) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of such Lender provided in Section 3.04(b) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.) or Section 3.06 (Net Payments; Taxes).  (ii)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04(b) shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lenders intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the event giving rise to such increased costs or  11

andrew.jordan@gsocap.com  For the avoidance of doubt, the inclusion of employees of GSO in this (b) shall not be construed as GSO becoming a party to this Agreement or assuming any rights or obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.  (c)        Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, prior to receipt of written confirmation, act without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from the Borrower or the Manager (including an Authorized Representative or Responsible Officer thereof). In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agents record of the terms of such telephonic notice absent manifest error.  Section 9.04.  Benefit of Agreement.This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto to the extent permitted under this Section 9.04; provided that except as provided in Section 6.02(f) (Merger, Consolidation; Successor Entity Substituted), the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.  Section 9.05.  Participations and Assignments.  (a)        Participations. Any Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder or under the Notes without the consent of the Borrower or any other Person to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions; provided that in the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participants rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that the participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.04(a) (Interest Rules and Calculations) to the extent that such Lender would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold; and provided, further, that such Lender shall not transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents except  53


to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or any Note in which such participant is participating or waive any mandatory prepayment thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participants participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a change in the terms of the Commitment), (ii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (in each case except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) or (iii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except as provided in Section 6.02(f) (Merger, Consolidation, Successor Entity Substituted); and provided, further, that each participation shall be subject to the related participant providing a representation and warranty to such Lender from which it is acquiring its participation that it is a Qualified Purchaser. The Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of any participation granted pursuant to this (a) and the identity of the participant(s).  (b)        Assignments. Any Lender may, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Administrative Agent, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, such Lenders Commitment (or any portion or element thereof), the Loans, the Notes and other Obligations) to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions with the Required Ratings; provided that the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for any assignment shall not be required if (i) (A) a Default or an Event of Default is continuing or (B) an Event of Default has occurred within the 60-day period preceding such assignment (even if such Event of Default is no longer continuing), (ii) such assignment is (A) to an Affiliate of such Lender or (B) to another Person who at the time of such assignment already is a party to this Agreement as a Lender or (iii) such assignment is made to an Approved Selling Institution (it being agreed that the Borrower shall have review and approval rights over the documents relating to such assignment). No assignment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence to an institution other than another Lender shall be in an aggregate amount less than (unless the entire Commitment and outstanding Loans of the assigning Lender is so assigned) $5,000,000. If any Lender so sells or assigns all or a part of its rights hereunder or under the Notes, any reference in this Agreement or the Notes to such Lender shall thereafter refer to said Lender and to its respective assignee to the extent of their respective interests and such assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would if it were such assigning Lender. Each assignment pursuant to this (b) shall be effected by the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender executing an Assignment Agreement (an Assignment Agreement), which Assignment Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C (appropriately  54


completed). At the time of any assignment pursuant to this (b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the Commitment of the respective assignee (which shall result in a direct reduction to the Commitment of the assigning Lender) and the Borrower shall if requested in writing by the assignee or assigning Lender issue new Notes to the respective assignee and to the assigning Lender in conformity with the requirements of Section 3.02 (Note). To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this (b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitment. In connection with any such assignment, the applicable Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree to execute such documents (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents) as shall be reasonably necessary to effect the foregoing. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging the Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank.  Section 9.06.  Replacement of Lenders.If any Lender, other than an Original Lender, seeks payment of additional amounts from the Borrower under Section 3.04(b) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.) or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender other than an Original Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender other than an Original Lender pursuant to Section 3.06 (Net Payments; Taxes), or if any Lender other than an Original Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and with the written consent of 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 9.05 (Participations and Assignments)), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment)provided that:  (a)        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 Credit Documents (including Section 3.04(c) (Compensation)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower;  (b)        in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04(b) (Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.) or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.06 (Net Payments; Taxes), such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and  (c)        such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws.  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  55


circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Section 9.07.  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.No failure or delay on the part of any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower or any other Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.  Section 9.08.  Calculations; Computations.  (a)        The financial statements to be furnished to the Administrative Agent to in turn furnish said statements to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved.

(a)        Subject to Section 9.04 (Benefit of Agreement) and paragraph (a) below, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to the requirements of, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement, in accordance with their customary policies and procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in any event may make disclosures (i) to employees, officers, directors and agents of Deutsche Bank who need to review and monitor its relationship with the Borrower, the Manager or the Equity Owner and (ii) reasonably required by any bona fide actual or potential transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Loans or participation therein or an Affiliate of any Lender or the Administrative Agent (including its or their attorneys, legal advisors, accountants and consultants) (so long as such transferee, participant or Affiliate, agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.16) or as required or requested by any governmental agency, central bank, regulatory authority with jurisdiction over any Lender, pursuant to legal process or as otherwise required by Law; provided that unless specifically prohibited by Applicable Law, such Lender shall, if practicable, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt thereof of any request by any governmental agency, central bank, regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Lender, or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency, central bank or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Lender or other routine examination or audit of such Lenders books and records by such governmental agency, central bank or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Lender) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information; and provided, further, that in no event shall any Lender or any of its Affiliates be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower.

(b)        It is expressly understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the information provided hereunder identifying the Fund Investments, the Market Value Prices and Market Values, is intended solely for use in connection with this Agreement.

Section 9.17.  Register.The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrowers agent, solely for purposes of this Section 9.17 (Register), to maintain a register (the Register) on which it shall record the Commitments from time to time of the Lenders, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans  60


of the Lenders.  Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrowers obligations in respect of such Loans.  With respect to each Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor.  The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 9.04 (Benefit of Agreement). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender its Notes and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender.  The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  Upon the written request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall at the expense of the Borrower make the Register or a photocopy thereof available to the Borrower.  Section 9.18.  Lender Affiliate Securities.The Administrative Agent may from time to time give notice to the Borrower listing by name each person who is an affiliate of a Lender for purposes of Section 23A.  Section 9.19.  Marshalling; Recapture.The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Lender or any Lender receives any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower or its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy Law, state or Federal Law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.  Section 9.20.  No Petition.Each of the parties hereto (other than the Borrower) covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all Obligations, no party hereto shall institute against the Borrower any involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,  61


insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceedings. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  Section 9.21.  Acknowledgment.The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that none of the parties hereto has any fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to any the other party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and the relationship between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.  Section 9.22.  Severability.If any provision of any Credit Document is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) the other provisions of the Credit Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lenders in order to carry out the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible and (ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision in such jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction.
