			deliver, or the default, event of default or other similar condition or event, as the case may be, arises solely (A) out of a wire transfer problem or an operational or administrative error or omission (so long as the required funds or property required to make that payment or delivery were otherwise available to that party), or (B) from the general unavailability of the relevant currency due to exchange controls or other similar governmental action, but in either case only if the payment or delivery is made within three Local Business Days after the problem has been corrected, the error or omission has been discovered or the currency becomes generally available.
		

		
			 
		

		
			In connection therewith, “Specified Indebtedness” will have the meaning specified in Section 14, except that such term shall not include (i) obligations in respect of deposits received in the ordinary course of a party’s banking business and (ii) Non-recourse Indebtedness.  For purposes of this definition, indebtedness is “Non-recourse Indebtedness” to the extent that it is non‐recourse to the party incurring such indebtedness except recourse to assets acquired with such indebtedness or dividends received by such party on account of such acquired assets.
		

		
			 
		

		
			“Threshold Amount” means with respect to (i) Party A, an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Stockholders’ Equity of Citibank, N.A.; and (ii) Party B, USD 50,000,000, or such larger amount used in Section 8.01(e) of the Credit Agreement with respect to a cross-default “Event of Default” (as such term is used in the Credit Agreement) or a similar provision in the Credit Agreement as modified after the date of this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			With respect to Party B, any “Event of Default” under and as defined in the Credit Agreement which has resulted in Party B's obligations under the Credit Agreement becoming due and payable before they would otherwise have been payable shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			“Stockholders’ Equity”  For purposes of the above, stockholders’ equity shall be determined by reference to Party A’s most recent consolidated quarterly balance sheet and shall include legal capital, paid-in capital, retained earnings and cumulative translation adjustments.  Such balance sheet shall be prepared in accordance with accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)         The “Credit Event Upon Merger” provisions of Section 5(b)(v) will apply to Party A and will apply to Party B, as amended by deleting subparagraphs (2) and (3), and inserting the word “or” immediately after the semi-colon at the end of subparagraph (1); provided that any event permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement which would otherwise constitute a Credit Event Upon Merger under this Agreement with respect to Party B or any Credit Support Provider of Party B, shall not constitute a Credit Event Upon Merger under this Agreement.

			(g)         Additional Termination Event will apply. It shall be an Additional Termination Event, with respect to which Party B shall be the sole Affected Party, if, after the date of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement is amended, supplemented, restated, renewed, extended, replaced or otherwise modified to grant a security interest to the Lenders under the Credit Agreement (whether in the Credit Agreement or in a related security agreement securing Loans under the Credit Agreement) that secures the obligations and liabilities of Party B under the Loans, but fails to also secure the obligations and liabilities of Party B under this Agreement on a pari passu basis equal in right and priority of payment with the outstanding principal obligations of Party B under the Loans (and for the avoidance of doubt, if there are multiple tranches of Loans, the most senior tranche). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement or in this Agreement, this Part 1(g) Additional Termination Event shall only be applied when the Lenders become secured under the Credit Agreement following the date of this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(h)         Failure to Pay.  Section 5(a)(i) is hereby amended by replacing the word “first” with the word “third” each time it appears.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)          Optional Termination.  On any Business Day (the “Optional Termination Date”), Party B may terminate and cash settle any Transaction hereunder in whole or in part; provided that, Party B will provide at least three days’ prior written notice to Party A designating the Optional Termination Date. The amount due with respect to any such termination shall be determined pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement as if (i) the Optional Termination Date is the Early Termination Date; (ii) Party B is the sole Affected Party (for all purposes other than the election to terminate), and (iii) such Transaction is the sole Affected Transaction. If a Transaction is to be terminated in part, the notice thereof provided by Party B shall specify the portion of the Notional Amount of such Transaction to be terminated, and the parties shall execute an amendment to the Confirmation for such Transaction to reflect the revised Notional Amount and the corresponding pro rata reductions on each amortization schedule reduction date for the revised Notional Amount.

			(a)         2006 ISDA Definitions. This Agreement and each Transaction are subject to the 2006 ISDA Definitions published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (the “2006 ISDA Definitions”) and will be governed by the provisions of the 2006 ISDA Definitions. The provisions of the 2006 ISDA Definitions are incorporated by reference in, and shall form part of, this Agreement and each Confirmation. Any reference to a “Swap Transaction” in the 2006 ISDA Definitions is deemed to be a reference to a “Transaction” for purposes of this Agreement or any Confirmation, and any reference to a “Transaction” in this Agreement or any Confirmation is deemed to be a reference to a “Swap Transaction” for purposes of the 2006 ISDA Definitions. The provisions of this Agreement (exclusive of the 2006 ISDA Definitions) shall prevail in the event of any conflict between such provisions and the 2006 ISDA Definitions.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)         2002 Master Agreement Protocol.  Annexes 1 to 18 and Section 6 of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement Protocol as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. on July 15, 2003 are incorporated into and apply to this Agreement.

			Section 1(b) shall be amended by inserting the words “fully executed and delivered or otherwise accepted” between the words “any” and “Confirmation” in line 3.

			12

		








		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)         Section 9(e)(i) shall be amended by deleting the words “by facsimile transmission” and replacing them with the words “by e-mail”.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iii)       The second and third sentences of Section 9(e)(ii) shall be deleted and replaced by the following:
		

		
			 
		

		
			“A Confirmation will be entered into as soon as practicable and may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by an e-mail) or be created by an exchange of electronic messages on an electronic messaging system or by an exchange of e-mails, which in each case will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to this Agreement.  The parties will specify therein or through another effective means that any such counterpart, electronic message or e-mail constitutes a Confirmation.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iv)        The wording of Section 12(a)(ii) shall be replaced in its entirety by the following: “[reserved;]”.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(v)         The wording of Section 12(a)(iii) shall be replaced in its entirety by the following: “[reserved;]”.

			(g)         Withholding Tax imposed on payments to non-US counterparties under the United States Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.  “Tax” as used in Part 2(a) of this Schedule (Payer Tax Representation) and “Indemnifiable Tax” as defined in Section 14 of this Agreement shall not include any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed or collected pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code (a “FATCA Withholding Tax”).  For the avoidance of doubt, a FATCA Withholding Tax is a Tax the deduction or withholding of which is required by applicable law for the purposes of Section 2(d) of this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			This Part 5(g) shall replace any “Express Provisions” where “Express Provisions” means any provisions expressly set out in any confirmation of a Transaction that supplements, forms a part of, and is subject to, this ISDA Master Agreement; that provide for amendments to (i) any Payer Tax Representation contained in this ISDA Master Agreement, (ii) Section 2(d) of this ISDA Master Agreement, or (iii) the definition of “Indemnifiable Tax” in this ISDA Master Agreement, in each case, only in relation to FATCA Withholding Tax.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(h)         Conditions Precedent. Section 2(a)(iii)(1) shall be amended by deleting the words “or Potential Event of Default”.  In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(iii) of this Agreement applies to each obligation of each party under Section 2(a)(i) of this Agreement, after the application of Section 2(c) of this Agreement or, if applicable, paragraph (d) of Part 6 of this Schedule, where the parties shall be deemed to have agreed to netting therein.
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			


		 


		

			13

		








		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)          Amendment to Section 2. Section 2 of the Agreement shall be amended to add at the end a new Section 2(e), reading in its entirety as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			“(e)       Condition End Date.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)          If an Event of Default occurs, the Defaulting Party may, by notice to the Non‐defaulting Party identifying the Event of Default and confirming its occurrence, specify that clause (ii) will apply to that Event of Default.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)         If this clause (ii) applies to an Event of Default, then the condition precedent specified in Section 2(a)(iii)(1) with respect to that Event of Default will cease to be a condition precedent to each obligation of the Non‐defaulting Party on the relevant Condition End Date.  Any obligation that would have been payable or deliverable by the Non‐defaulting Party but for Section 2(a)(iii)(1) will become payable or deliverable on the first Local Business Day falling after the Condition End Date (together with interest payable on demand in accordance with Section 9(h)(i)(3)(A) or compensation and interest payable on demand in accordance with Section 9(h)(i)(4)(A), as the case may be).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iii)       Subject to clause (iv) below, if, after a party has given a notice under clause (i) above with respect to an Event of Default, another Event of Default occurs with respect to that party (and such other Event of Default does not arise out of the same facts and circumstances as a prior Event of Default), then, with respect to the earlier Event of Default, no Condition End Date will occur and therefore clause (ii) will not apply.  This will not affect the right of that party to give a notice under clause (i) in respect of the subsequent Event of Default.  This clause (iii) is without prejudice to the right of the Defaulting Party to give a new notice to the Non‐defaulting Party under clause (i) with respect to the earlier Event of Default.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iv)        If the Defaulting Party has given a notice under clause (i) above in respect of an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(vii), then clause (iii) will not apply.”
		

		
			Section 14 of the Agreement is amended to add in the appropriate alphabetical position a new definition of “Condition End Date”, reading in its entirety as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			““Condition End Date” means, with respect to an Event of Default, the day falling 90 days after a notice given by the Defaulting Party under Section 2(e)(i) is effective if the Event of Default is still continuing on that day.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			(j)          ISDA Dodd Frank Protocols. The parties agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the ISDA August 2012 DF Protocol Agreement (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. on August 13, 2012) entered into by the parties (the “August DF Protocol Agreement”) and the ISDA March 2013 DF Protocol Agreement (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. on March 22, 2013) entered into by the parties (the “March DF Protocol Agreement”) (together, the “Protocol Agreements”), this Agreement shall constitute a “Protocol Covered Agreement” for all purposes under the Protocol Agreements.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(k)         ISDA 2018 U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol. Each party agrees that it has adhered to the ISDA 2018 U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol (the “ISDA U.S. Stay Protocol”) prior to the date hereof. The parties agree that the terms of the ISDA U.S. Stay Protocol are incorporated into and form a part of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be deemed a Protocol Covered Agreement for purposes thereof.  For purposes of incorporating the ISDA U.S. Stay Protocol, Party A shall be deemed to
		

		
			
		

		
			


		 


		

			14

		








		

		
			 
		

		
			be a Regulated Entity and Party B shall be deemed to be an Adhering Party. In the event of any inconsistencies between this Agreement and the ISDA U.S. Stay Protocol, the ISDA U.S. Stay Protocol will prevail.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(l)          Confirmation Procedures. Each confirming document, acknowledgment or other evidence intended by the parties to be effective for the purpose of confirming or evidencing a Transaction, whether created by delivery or exchange of written terms that match, or by making available written terms in a manner that permits the recipient to review and/or accept the terms, or by delivery to an agent or service provider, or via electronic messaging system, electronic communication network, or web-based platform that confirms the matching of such terms, shall constitute a “Confirmation” as referred to in this Agreement, provided that both parties agree in writing or by their course of conduct to use such method with respect to Transactions or certain types of Transactions. The parties expect to execute and deliver Confirmations for Transactions within the timeframes specified in CFTC Rule 23.501, to the extent applicable. Failure of the parties to confirm a Transaction within such timeframes, however, shall not be a basis for voiding or rescinding such Transaction and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such Transaction.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(m)        Severability. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5(b)(i) or 5(b)(ii) of this Agreement in the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.  The parties shall endeavor, in good faith negotiations, to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(n)         Limitation of Liability.  NO PARTY SHALL BE REQUIRED TO PAY OR BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM ITS NEGLIGENCE) TO ANY OTHER PARTY EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PAYMENTS REQUIRED TO BE MADE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE DEEMED TO BE SUCH DAMAGES.  IF AND TO THE EXTENT ANY PAYMENT REQUIRED TO BE MADE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IS DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ACTUAL DAMAGES ARE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE AND THAT SUCH PAYMENT IS INTENDED TO BE A REASONABLE APPROXIMATION OF THE AMOUNT OF SUCH DAMAGES AND NOT A PENALTY.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(o)         Certain Permitted Disclosures. Party A is required to report information related to swap, derivatives and other transactions with counterparties to appropriate regulators.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any agreement, including, without limitation, any non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement between Party A and Party B, as a counterparty to a swap, derivatives, or other transaction, Party B hereby consents to the disclosure of information: (a) to the extent required by any applicable law, rule or regulation which mandates reporting and/or retention of transaction and similar information or to the extent required by order or directive regarding reporting and/or retention of transaction or similar information issued by any authority, body or agency in accordance with which Party A is required or accustomed to act, including, without limitation, reporting required to be made to swap or trade data repositories or systems or services operated by such repositories (“Reporting Requirements”) or (b) to and between Party A’s head office, branches or affiliates, or any persons or entities who provide services to such other party or its head office, branches or affiliates, in each case, in connection with such Reporting Requirements.

			(p)         Applicability of Dodd-Frank Margin Requirements.  Party B represents as of the date hereof (which representation shall be deemed to repeated on each date on which a Transaction is entered into) that Party B is not a “financial end user” as defined in the Margin Requirements.  For purposes of the foregoing, the term “Margin Requirements” means the Margin and Capital Requirements for Covered Swap Entities; Final Rule adopted by the Department of the Treasury, Federal Reserve System, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Farm Credit Administration and Federal Housing Finance Agency, published at 80 FR 74840 (November 30, 2015) Reg. __.2.]
