 3 OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF NAI. NAI also represents and covenants to BNPPLC as follows: 

(A) Concerning NAI and this Amendment. 
 (1) Authority. The Constituent Documents of NAI permit the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment by NAI, and all actions and approvals necessary to bind NAI under this Amendment
have been taken and obtained. Without limiting the foregoing, this Amendment will be binding upon NAI when signed on behalf of NAI by Ingemar Lanevi, Vice President and Corporate Treasurer of NAI. 

(2) Truth of Information. Any reports, financial statements or other data furnished by NAI to BNPPLC in connection
with the agreements set forth in this Amendment are true and correct in all material respects and do not omit to state any fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No material adverse change has
occurred since the dates of such reports, statements and other data in the financial condition of NAI. 
 (3)
No Default or Violation. The execution and performance by NAI of this Amendment do not and will not contravene or result in a breach of or default under any other agreement to which NAI is a party or by which NAI is bound or which affects any
assets of NAI. Such execution and performance by NAI do not contravene any law, order, decree, rule or regulation to which NAI is subject. Further, such execution and performance by NAI will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the
obligation to create or impose) any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or security interest in, any property of NAI pursuant to the provisions of any such other agreement. 

(4) Enforceability. This Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of NAI enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 
 (B) Further Assurances. NAI will, upon the reasonable request of BNPPLC, (i) execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as may be

Amendment and to subject to this Amendment any property intended to be covered hereby, including specifically, but without limitation, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements or
appurtenances to the Property; (ii) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure and record or file any document or instrument deemed advisable by BNPPLC to protect its rights in and to the Property against the rights or interests of third persons;
and (iii) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper in the reasonable determination of BNPPLC to enable BNPPLC to comply with
the requirements or requests of any agency or authority having jurisdiction over it. 
 (C) Reimbursement of Costs. NAI
will pay or reimburse BNPPLC, upon demand, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by BNPPLC in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Amendment. 
 4 RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. The execution and
delivery by BNPPLC of this Amendment will not be deemed to create a course of dealing or otherwise obligate BNPPLC to enter into amendments under the same, similar, or any other circumstances in the future. NAI is entering into this Amendment on the
basis of its own investigation and for its own reasons, without reliance upon BNPPLC or Participants or any other Person. Except as expressly provided above, this Amendment will not limit, modify or otherwise affect any of NAI’s obligations
under any of the Operative Documents, as heretofore amended. 
 5 NO IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS
OR PROMISES BY BNPPLC. NAI ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER BNPPLC NOR ITS
REPRESENTATIVES OR AGENTS HAVE MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR PROMISES WITH RESPECT
TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AMENDMENT EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH
HEREIN.

REFERENCE FROM THE COMMON DEFINITIONS AND PROVISIONS AGREEMENT. All terms and conditions set forth in Article
II of the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement will apply to this Amendment as if this Amendment was one of the Operative Documents referenced therein. 
 7 REFERENCES TO OPERATIVE DOCUMENTS. From and after the Amendment Date, all references to any of the Operative Documents
in the Operative Documents or in other documents related to the transactions contemplated therein are intended to mean the Operative Documents, as modified by this Amendment, unless the context shall otherwise require.
