comparable prior period shall be restated and the calculations re-made as specified above to enable a comparison to be made with such prior period; provided, further, that the restatement and remaking of such calculations shall be made
solely for comparison purposes and shall not result in any finding of non-compliance hereunder.

 COMMITMENTS 
  
 2.01 Loans. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, to make loans (the “Loans”) to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the period from and including the Funding Date to and including the Availability End Date in an aggregate principal amount at any one
time outstanding up to but not exceeding the amount of the Commitment of such Lender as in effect from time to time; provided, that in no event shall the aggregate Loans of any Lender exceed the Commitment of such Lender; provided,
further, that in no event shall the aggregate principal amount of all Loans at any one time outstanding exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments as in effect from time to time. 
  
 2.02 Borrowings. The Borrower shall give the Agent (which shall
promptly notify the Lenders) three Business Days’ prior notice of each borrowing under this Agreement as provided in Section 4.05. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date specified for each borrowing under this
Agreement, each Lender shall make available the amount of the Loan to be made by it on such date to the Agent, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer to the account specified on the attached Appendix C. 
  
 The amount with respect to the Loans so received by the Agent for the account
of the Borrower shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower by remitting the same by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) to the Collateral Agent, in immediately available funds, for deposit in the
Construction Account, as set forth in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein provided, the Borrower shall only be permitted to make borrowings on the twenty-fifth day of the calendar month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next preceding
Business Day and there shall be no more than one borrowing of Loans in any calendar month. 
  
 2.03 Changes of Commitments. 
  
 (a) Optional Changes of Commitment. Subject to Section 2.03(b), the Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time (i) to terminate the Commitments 

  


					
	 	  	- 28 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
and (ii) to reduce the aggregate unused amount of the Commitments; provided, that: (A) the Borrower shall give notice of each such termination or
reduction as provided in Section 4.05, (B) each reduction of Commitments shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to $1,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of Commitments outstanding), and if greater, in integral multiples of $500,000
in excess thereof and (C) either (I) the Substantial Completion Date has occurred or (II) the Borrower and the Agent shall have received written concurrence from the Independent Engineer that the remaining aggregate unused amount of the Commitments
after such termination or reduction, together with the Equity Contribution Amount (and other funds committed in a form satisfactory to the Majority Lenders) is sufficient, in the reasonable judgment of the Independent Engineer, to achieve
Substantial Completion on or prior to the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date. 
  
 (b) Mandatory Changes of Commitments. The aggregate amount of the Commitments shall be automatically reduced to zero (i) at the close of business on the Availability End Date or (ii) upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default described in Section 9.01(f) as set forth in the last paragraph of Section 9.01. 
  
 (c) No Reinstatement. The Commitments, once terminated or reduced, may not be reinstated. 
  
 2.04 Fees. 
  
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the
account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) on the daily average unused amount of such Lender’s Commitment at a rate per annum equal to 0.50%, for the period from and including the Closing Date to but
not including the dates the Commitments are reduced to zero pursuant to Section 2.03. The accrued Commitment Fee shall be payable in arrears on each Semi-Annual Date and on the date the Commitments are reduced to zero pursuant to Section
2.03. 
  
 (b) Administrative Fees. The Borrower shall
pay to the Agent, for its own account, a non-refundable agency fee (the “Administrative Fee”) and to the Agent for the account of the Collateral Agent, a non-refundable agency fee (the “Collateral Agency Fee”) for

Date until the Termination Date.

 2.05 Lending Offices. The Loans made by each Lender
shall be made and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. 
  
 2.06 Several Obligations; Remedies Independent. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan
on such date, but neither any Lender nor the Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender. 
  


					
	 	  	- 29 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 The amounts payable by the Borrower at any time under this Agreement, or any other Financing Document to each Lender
shall be a separate and independent debt and, subject to the Collateral Agency Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender or the Agent

 (a) Maintenance of Records by the Agent. The Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof and (iv) a copy of each assignment and
acceptance delivered to it pursuant to Section 11.06(b). Upon reasonable notice to the Agent, the Borrower and each Lender shall have the right to inspect such records from time to time during normal business hours. 
  
 (b) Effect of Entries. Absent manifest error, the entries made in the
records maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.07 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of the Agent to maintain such
records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
  
 PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST 
  
 3.01 Repayment of Loans. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender the principal of such Lender’s Loans outstanding on each Principal Payment Date in accordance with the
amortization schedule attached as Appendix B to this Agreement. All unpaid principal of each Loan shall be due and payable in full in a single installment on the Final Maturity Date. 
  
 3.02 Interest. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Agent for
account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full at the rate equal to the LIBO Rate for
such Loan for the applicable Interest Periods plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower hereby agrees that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all then-outstanding Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate for
the period from and including the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default to but excluding the date such Event of Default is remedied or waived. 
  
 Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (a) on each Semi-Annual Date and (b) upon the payment or prepayment of such Loan (but only on
the principal amount so paid or prepaid), except that interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable 

  


					
	 	  	- 30 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
from time to time on demand (or, if no demand is made during any month, on the last day of such month). Promptly after the determination of any interest rate
provided for in this Agreement or any change in any such rate, the Agent shall give notice of such interest rate to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower. 
  
 3.03 Optional Prepayments of Loans. Subject to Section 4.04, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans
at any time after the Availability End Date; provided, that the Borrower shall give the Agent notice of each such prepayment as provided in Section 4.05 and, upon the date specified in any such notice of prepayment, the amount to be
prepaid shall become due and payable. Any prepayment by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall be made simultaneously with, and is conditioned upon, (a) the prepayment under any Permitted Swap Agreement (if then in effect) to the
extent the aggregate notional amount under all such Permitted Swap Agreements exceeds the aggregate amount of Loans outstanding after giving effect to the prepayment contemplated by this Section 3.03 and (b) the payment by the Borrower of any
costs, expenses or other amounts incurred by any Lender in connection with such prepayment (including amounts payable by the Borrower under any such Permitted Swap Agreement with such Lender as a result of such early termination effected pursuant to
clause (a) above and any breakage costs due in accordance with Section 5.03 hereof). Any prepayment by the Borrower in this Section 3.03 shall be applied pro rata to the remaining scheduled principal repayment amounts of
the Loans. 
  
 3.04 Mandatory Prepayments. In addition to
mandatory repayments of principal of Loans as set forth in Section 3.01 above, the Borrower shall make the following mandatory payments (as prepayments to be effected in each case in the manner specified in paragraph (d) below):

  
 (a) Event of Loss. The Borrower shall
prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Amount not otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.05(b) or Section 8.05(c), as applicable. 
  
 (b) Asset Sales. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the net
proceeds resulting from the disposition of any of its physical assets (other than dispositions of assets permitted pursuant to the second sentence of Section 8.11(a)) to the extent the Borrower has not either (i) reinvested such proceeds
within 60 days to acquire substitute or replacement assets of equal or greater value than the assets disposed or (ii) reduced the Commitments. 
  
 (c) Tax Refunds. Following the Term Conversion Date, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of
any tax refunds pertaining to taxes disbursed as part of the Project Costs. 
  
 (d) Application. Prepayments described in this Section 3.04 shall be applied to the Loans in the inverse order of the maturities of such Loans.

 PAYMENTS; PRO RATA TREATMENT; COMPUTATIONS; ETC. 
  
 4.01 Payments. 
  
 (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, all payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower
under this Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided in any of the other Financing Documents, all payments to be made by the Borrower under any such other Financing Documents, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds,
without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Agent by wire transfer to the account specified on the attached Appendix C. No payment shall be made later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date on which such payment shall become due
(each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). 
  
 (b) The Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement for account of any Lender, specify to the Agent (which shall so notify the
intended recipient or recipients) the Loans or other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that it fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Agent may distribute such payment to the Lenders for application in such manner as it or the Majority Lenders, subject to Section 4.02, may determine to be appropriate). 
  
 (c) Each payment received by the Agent under this Agreement for account of any Lender shall be paid by the Agent promptly to
such Lender, in immediately available funds, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for the Loan or other obligation in respect of which such payment is made. 
  
 (d) If the due date of any payment under this Agreement would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except in the case where such payment due date is a Semi-Annual Date or Principal Payment Date, in which case the terms set forth in Section 1.01 for “Semi-Annual Date”
or “Principal Payment Date”, as the case may be, are applicable) and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension. 
  
 4.02 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement: (a) each borrowing of Loans under
Section 2.01 shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of commitment fee under Section 2.04 shall be made for account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.03 shall
be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments, (b) except as otherwise specified herein, each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be
made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; provided, that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Loan, the
outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Loans were made (by 

  


					
	 	  	- 32 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
reason of a failure of a Lender to make a Loan in the circumstances described in the last paragraph of Section 11.04), then such payment shall be
applied to the Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments following such payment and
(c) each payment of interest on the Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders. 
  
 4.03 Computations. Interest and fees on Loans and on other obligations
of the Borrower or the Lenders shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable. 
  
 4.04 Minimum Amounts. Except for (a) mandatory prepayments made
pursuant to Section 3.04 and (b) prepayments made pursuant to Section 5.03, each borrowing and partial prepayment of principal of Loans shall be in an amount equal to $2,000,000 or any higher multiple of $500,000 (or, if less, the full
amount of such Loans outstanding) (borrowings or prepayments of Loans having different Interest Periods at the same time being deemed separate borrowings and prepayments for purposes of the foregoing, one for each Interest Period). 
  
 4.05 Certain Notices. Notices by the Borrower to the Agent of
terminations or reductions of the Commitments, of borrowings and optional prepayments of Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the number of Business Days
prior to the date of the relevant termination, reduction, borrowing or prepayment or the first day of such Interest Period specified below: 
  

			
	 Notice

	  	Number of
Business Days Prior


	 Termination or reduction of the Commitments
	  	5
		
	 Borrowing of Loans
	  	3
		
	 Prepayment of Loans
	  	5

  
 Each such notice of termination or
reduction shall specify the amount of the Commitments to be terminated or reduced and submission of such notice shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.03. Each such notice of borrowing shall be in the
form of Exhibit A and shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VI (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”). Each such notice of optional prepayment shall specify the amount (subject to
Section 4.04) of each Loan prepaid and the date of such optional prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice. 
  
 4.06 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless the Agent shall have
been notified by a Lender or the Borrower (the “Payor”) prior to the date on which the Payor is to make payment to the Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Lender or (in the case of the
Borrower) a payment to the Agent for account of one or more 

  


					
	 	  	- 33 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
of the Lenders (any such payment, a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to
make the Required Payment to the Agent, the Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption, (but shall not be required to) make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient (or
recipients) on such date and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Agent, the recipient (or recipients) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest on such amount
in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the “Advance Date”) such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Rate for such day and, if such recipient (or recipients) shall fail promptly to make such payment, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from the Payor, together with interest as provided above; provided, that if
neither the recipient (or recipients) nor the Payor shall return the Required Payment to the Agent within three Business Days of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Payor and the recipient (or recipients) shall each be
obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment as follows: 
  
 (a) if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by the Borrower to the Lenders, the Borrower and the recipient (or recipients) shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest
in respect of the Required Payment at the Post-Default Rate (and, in case the recipient (or recipients) shall return the Required Payment to the Agent, without limiting the obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.02 to pay interest to such
recipient (or recipients) at the Post-Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment), and 
  
 (b) if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower, the Payor and the Borrower shall
each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the rate of interest provided for such Required Payment pursuant to Section 3.02 (and, in case the Borrower shall return the Required
Payment to the Agent, without limiting any claim the Borrower may have against the Payor in respect of the Required Payment, subject to Section 11.13). 
  

4.07 Sharing of Payments; Etc. 
  
 (a) The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise
have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it for account of the Borrower at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender’s Loans or any
other amount payable to such Lender under this Agreement, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of such action;
provided, that such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such action. 
  
 (b) If any Lender shall obtain from the Borrower payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this
Agreement held by it or any other Financing Document or through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Agent as provided in this 

  


					
	 	  	- 34 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
Agreement), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans or such other
amounts then due hereunder by the Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in)
the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due on such Loans or other amounts, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, with the
effect that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of or
interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders; provided, that if at the time of such payment the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall not be held by the Lenders, pro rata in
accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Loans were made (by reason of a failure of a Lender to make a Loan hereunder in the circumstances described in the last paragraph of Section 11.04), then such purchases
of participations or direct interests shall be made in such manner as will result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Loans being held by the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of such Commitments.
To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. 
  
 (c) The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation
(or direct interest) may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s liens, counterclaims or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to
such Lender in the amount of such participation. 
  
 (d) Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the
Borrower. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a set-off to which this Section 4.07 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in
respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 4.07 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
  
 YIELD PROTECTION; ETC. 
  
 5.01 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period with respect to a making (for the purposes of this Section
5.01, a “borrowing”) of Loans: 
  
 (a) the Agent reasonably determines that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 
  
 (b) the Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that such Lenders have reasonably determined that the LIBO Rate for that Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to those Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such borrowing for such Interest Period; 
  


					
	 	  	- 35 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 then the Agent will give notice of those circumstances to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as
promptly as practicable and: 
  
 (i) during the
15-day period next succeeding the date of any such notice (the “Negotiation Period”), the Agent and the Borrower will negotiate in good faith for the purpose of agreeing upon an alternate, mutually acceptable basis (the
“Substitute Basis”) for determining the rate of interest to be applicable to such Loans or amounts for such Interest Period; 
  
 (ii) if at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, the Agent and the Borrower have agreed upon a Substitute Basis and the Agent has received
confirmation from its counsel that such Substitute Basis has received all necessary Government Approvals and consents, such Substitute Basis shall be retroactive to, and take effect from, the beginning of such Interest Period; 
  
 (iii) if at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, a
Substitute Basis shall not have been agreed upon as aforesaid or the Agent shall not have received the above-mentioned confirmation as to requisite governmental approvals or consents, each Lender shall notify the Borrower of the cost to such Lender
(as determined by it in good faith) of funding and maintaining the Loan for such Interest Period; and the interest payable to such Lender on such Loan or amount for such Interest Period shall be a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin above
the cost to such Lender of funding and maintaining such Loan or amount for such Interest Period as so notified by such Lender (or, as to any principal of such Loan or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, other amount payable to such Lender on
or in respect of such Loan that is then past due, 2% plus the Applicable Margin above such cost); and 
  
 (iv) the procedures specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall apply to each Interest Period for such Loans
or amounts succeeding the first Interest Period to which they were applied unless and until the Agent shall determine that the conditions referred to in clause (a) or (b) above no longer exist and so notifies the Borrower, whereupon
interest on such Loans or amounts shall again be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 commencing on the first day of the Interest Period for such Loans or amounts next succeeding the date of such notice. 
  
 5.02 Increased Costs. 
  
 (a) If any Change in Law: 
  
 (i) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve,
special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the LIBO Rate); and/or 
  


					
	 	  	- 36 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (ii) imposes on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition materially
affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; 
  
 and the result of any
of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under any Financing Document,
in each case by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for the additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (except
to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 5.05). 
  
 (b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or (without duplication) on the
capital of its holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for that Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s and its holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), in each case by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Lender or (without duplication) its holding company for any such reduction suffered (except to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 5.05). 
  
 (c) To claim any amount under this Section 5.02, a Lender must deliver
to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, under Section 5.02(a) or Section 5.02(b). The Borrower shall pay
such Lender the amount due and payable and set forth on any such certificate within 30 days after its receipt. 
  
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall not constitute a waiver of such
Lender’s right to demand that compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.02 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date
on which such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to those increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation for those circumstances; provided, further, that if the Change
in Law giving rise to those increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include that period of retroactive effect. 
  
 5.03 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Loan other than on the last day
of the Interest Period for that Loan (including under Section 3.04 or as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow on the date specified in any borrowing notice or failure to repay or prepay any Loan on any scheduled
repayment or prepayment date or (c) the assignment of any Loan other than on the last day of its Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.05, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each
Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to any such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that


  


					
	 	  	- 37 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the
period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan) over (ii) the amount of interest
that would accrue on such principal amount for that period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of that period, for Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar
market. To claim any amount under this Section 5.03, the Lender must deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.03
(including calculations, in reasonable detail, showing how such Lender computed such amount or amounts). The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount due and payable and set forth on any such certificate within 30 days after its receipt.

  
 5.04 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Secured Obligation shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that if the Borrower is required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from those payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased
as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.04) each Person entitled thereto receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make those deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Government Authority in accordance with any applicable Government Rule. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Government Authority in accordance with any applicable Government Rule. 
  
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Person on or with respect to any payment by or
on account of any Secured Obligation (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.04) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising from, or with
respect to, those Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, whether or not those Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. To claim any amount under this Section 5.04(c), the
Agent, Collateral Agent or a Lender must deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability. If the Agent, Collateral Agent or a Lender receives a final refund of an Indemnified Tax
or Other Tax from the Government Authority to which any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax was paid, and such refund is clearly identifiable and attributable, in such Person’s sole discretion, to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes in respect of
this Agreement that the Borrower has either paid on behalf of such Person or for which such Person was indemnified, then such Person shall pay over such refund to the Borrower as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof. 

 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes by the Borrower to a Government Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the 

  


					
	 	  	- 38 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Government Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting that payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
  
 (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under any applicable Government Rule or treaty between the United States and the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, with respect to
payments of any Secured Obligations will deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Government Rule, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Government Rule
and reasonably requested by the Borrower in writing as will permit those payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 
  
 (f) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on the Closing Date or not later
than 10 Business Days following the effectiveness of any assignment pursuant to Section 11.06 by which it becomes a party to this Agreement (i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8EXP or
W-8IMY or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income Taxes and (ii) any other
governmental forms which are necessary or required under an applicable Tax treaty or otherwise by law to eliminate any withholding Tax, which have been reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower. Each Lender which delivers to the Borrower and
the Agent a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8EXP or W-8IMY pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (A) promptly following written notice from the Borrower two further copies of such form on or before the
date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Agent and (B) without notice from the Borrower promptly after the occurrence of
any event relating solely to the status of the Foreign Lender requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income Taxes, unless an event (including any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms
inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding
of United States federal income Taxes and in any such event, the Borrower shall withhold Taxes at the rate and in the manner required by the laws of the United States with respect to payments made to such a Lender and shall be required to pay any
additional amounts or indemnify such a Lender pursuant to this Section 5.04 with respect to such withheld Taxes. 
  
 5.05 Mitigation of Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
  

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.02 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Government Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.04, then such Lender, if requested by the Borrower, will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or 

  


					
	 	  	- 39 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
booking its Loans or to assign its rights and obligations under the Financing Documents to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.02 or 5.04, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) in the Lender’s sole discretion 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 unless it shall withdraw its
request in a timely manner that the Lender designate a different lending office. 
  
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.02, if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Government Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 5.04, if Section 5.06 becomes applicable to any Lender or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions, including required consents, contained in Section 11.06), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that
assumes those obligations (which assignee may be another Lender); provided, that (i) such Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the Secured Obligations owing to it from the assignee (to the extent of the outstanding principal, accrued
interest and fees included in those Secured Obligations) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts so included) and (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.02 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 5.04, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, as a result of a waiver by such Lender of
its right under Section 5.02, 5.04 or 5.06, as applicable, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply. If a Lender refuses to be replaced pursuant to this Section
5.05 and Section 11.06(b), the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such Lender any of the compensation referred to in this Section 5.05 or any additional amounts incurred or accrued under this Article V from and after the
date in excess of those that would have been incurred for such replacement. 
  
 5.06 Illegality. In the event that it becomes unlawful or, by reason of a Change in Law, any Lender is unable to honor its obligation to make or maintain Loans, then such Lender will promptly notify the
Borrower of such event (with a copy to the Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Loans. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts, including using
reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans or to assign its rights and obligations under the Financing Documents to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such designation or assignment
(a) would eliminate or avoid such illegality and (b) in the Lender’s sole discretion, 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; provided, that prior to incurring any such costs or expenses such Lender provides written notice to the Borrower setting forth in
reasonable detail a good faith estimate of such costs and expenses.

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign partnership in the State of Louisiana and in all other places where necessary in light of the business it conducts and
intends to conduct and the Property it owns and intends to conduct and own and in light of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except for where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. No filing, recording, publishing or other act by the Borrower that has not been made or done is necessary in connection with the existence or good standing of the Borrower. 
  
 7.02 Financial Condition. The financial statements of the Borrower,
Pledgors and Operator furnished to the Agent (a) pursuant to Section 6.01(e) and (b) pursuant to Section 8.01 (as applicable), fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of such Person as of the date thereof, all
in accordance with GAAP (subject to normal year-end adjustments). As of such date of such financial statements, neither the Borrower, the Pledgors nor the Operator has any material contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or
long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments which are required by GAAP to be disclosed in the foregoing financial statements, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in such financial
statements or as arising solely from the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents. There has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operations or business of the Borrower, the Pledgors or the Operator from that set
forth in such financial statements as of the date thereof. 
  
 7.03 Action. The Borrower has full limited partnership power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a party. The execution, delivery
and performance by the Borrower of each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary limited partnership action on the part of the Borrower. Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is
a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and is in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as limited


  


					
	 	  	- 53 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 by general principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws. To the Borrower’s Knowledge, (a) each
Pledgor and each Material Project Party has the full power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Transaction Documents to which such Person is a party, (b) the execution, delivery and
performance by each Pledgor and each Material Project Party of each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership

against such Person in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws. 
  
 7.04 No Breach. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower and, to the Borrower’s Knowledge, each
Pledgor and each Material Project Party, of each of the Transaction Documents to which it is or is intended to be a party do not and will not: (a) require any consent or approval of any Person that has not been obtained and remains in full force and
effect (other than Government Approvals that are not required to be obtained and to be in full force and effect for the then relevant stage of the Development), (b) violate any provision of any Government Rule or Government Approval applicable to
the Borrower or the Project, (c) violate, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any Transaction Document to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or its Property may be bound or affected or (d) result in, or create any Lien
(other than a Permitted Lien) upon or with respect to any of the Properties now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower, other than as to Non-Material Project Documents where failing to obtain such consent or approval, or such violation, or
creation of lien could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 7.05 Government Approvals; Government Rules. 
  
 (a) All material Government Approvals for the Development (including sale of Services) that have been obtained by the Borrower or for the benefit of the Project by third parties as of the Closing Date are set forth on
Schedule 7.05(a). Except as otherwise noted on Schedule 7.05(a), all Government Approvals set forth on Schedule 7.05(a) have been duly obtained, were validly issued, are in full force and effect, and are not the subject of any
pending appeal and all applicable appeal periods have expired (except Government Approvals which do not have limits on appeal periods under Government Rules or appeals which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), are
held in the name of the Borrower or such third party as indicated on such Schedule 7.05(a) and are free from conditions or requirements which (i) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) the Borrower or such
third party (as applicable) does not expect to be able to satisfy on or prior to the commencement of the relevant stage of Development, except to the extent that a failure to so satisfy such condition or requirement could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Material Adverse Effect could reasonably be expected to result from any such Government Approvals being held by or in the name of Persons other than the Borrower. 
  
 (b) All material Government Approvals not obtained as of the Closing Date but
necessary for the Development (including the sale of Services) to be obtained by the Borrower or for the benefit of the Project by third parties after the Closing Date are set forth on Schedule 7.05(b). No Material Adverse Effect could

	 	  	- 54 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (c) All material Government Approvals required to be held by the Borrower or the third party indicated on
Schedule 7.05(b) for the current stage of Development (as identified by the dates on Schedule 7.05(b) for which such Government Approvals are reasonably projected to be required), have been duly obtained and validly issued, are in full
force and effect, are not the subject of any pending or threatened appeal (except appeals which, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), are held in the name of the Borrower or such third party and are free from

of Development, except to the extent that a failure to so satisfy such condition or requirement could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (d) The Borrower reasonably believes that any material Government Approvals which have not been obtained by the Borrower or
the relevant third party as of the Funding Date, but which shall be required to be obtained in the future by the Borrower or such third party for the Development, shall be obtained in due course on or prior to the commencement of the appropriate
stage of Development for which such Government Approval would be required and shall not contain any condition or requirements, the compliance with which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or which the Borrower or the
relevant third party (as the case may be) does not expect to satisfy on or prior to the commencement of the appropriate stage of Development, except to the extent that a failure to so satisfy such condition or requirement could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Project, if constructed in accordance with the Construction Budget and Schedule and otherwise Developed as contemplated by the Material Project Documents, will conform to and comply with all covenants,
conditions, restrictions and reservations in the applicable Government Approvals and all applicable Government Rules, except to the extent that a failure to so conform or comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

with, all Government Rules and Government Approvals applicable to the Borrower.

against the Borrower or the Project or with respect to any Material Project Document or Government Approval related to the Project and (b) no existing default by the Borrower under any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any Government
Authority or arbitral tribunal, which in the case of clause (a) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

times complied and is in compliance with all Environmental Laws and all Government Approvals required under any Environmental Laws and (ii) obtained and maintained in full force and effect all Government Approvals required for the Project under
Environmental Laws, except for any non-compliance or failure to obtain or maintain in full force and effect that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (b) There are no facts, circumstances, conditions or
occurrences regarding the Project that could reasonably be expected (i) to form the basis of a material Environmental Claim or give rise to a material liability or material obligation under any Environmental Law, with respect to the Project, or
against the Project or the Borrower, that individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) to cause the Project to be subject to any restrictions on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability
under any Environmental Law that would materially hinder or restrict the Borrower or any other Person from operating the Project as intended under the Material Project Documents (excluding restrictions on the transferability of Government Approvals
upon the transfer of ownership of assets subject to such Government Approval). 
  
 (c) There are (i) no past Environmental Claims, (ii) no pending Environmental Claims and (iii) to the Borrower’s Knowledge, no

or caused to be filed all tax returns that are required to be filed, and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made against the Borrower or any of its Property and all other Taxes imposed on the
Borrower or its Property by any Government Authority (other than Taxes the payment of which are not yet due or which are being Contested and other than Taxes the nonpayment of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect), and no tax Liens (other than Permitted Liens) have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such Taxes.

has been made in a manner acceptable to the Lenders), and all other necessary and appropriate action has been taken, so that each such Security Document creates a perfected Lien on and security interest in all right, title and interest of the
Borrower in the Collateral covered thereby, prior and superior to all other Liens other than Permitted Liens and all necessary and appropriate consents to the creation, perfection and enforcement of such Liens have been obtained from each of the
parties to the Material Project Documents and the Other Project Documents.

to any contract or agreement that is not a Project Document that it is permitted to enter into pursuant to the terms hereof. There are no material contracts, services, materials or rights (other than Government Approvals) required for the current

 ARTICLE X

  
 THE AGENT 
  
 10.01 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lender hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to act as its agent under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Financing Documents, together with such other
powers as are reasonably incidental to such powers. The Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 10.05 and the first sentence of Section 10.06 shall include reference to its Affiliates and its own and its
Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents): (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Financing Documents, and shall not by reason of any Financing Document be a trustee
for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in any Financing Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any
of them under, any Financing Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Financing Document or any other document referred to or provided for in any Financing Document or for any failure by
the Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations under any Financing Document; (c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings under any Financing Document and (d) shall not be responsible
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Financing Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for in any Financing Document or in connection with any Financing Document, except for its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. 
  
 10.02 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
certification, notice or other communication (including any made by telephone, telecopy, telex, 

  


					
	 	  	- 83 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper
Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by any Financing Document, the Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any Financing Document in accordance with instructions given by the Majority Lenders or, if provided in this Agreement, in accordance with the instructions given by the Majority Lenders,
Supermajority Lenders or all Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions shall be binding on all of the Lenders. 
  
 10.03 Defaults. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of a Default (other than the nonpayment of principal of or interest on Loans or of fees payable hereunder) unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such
notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Agent shall give prompt notice of such receipt to the Lenders (and shall give each Lender prompt notice of each such
nonpayment). The Agent shall (subject to Section 10.07) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders; provided, that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires
that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Majority Lenders, Supermajority Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be. 
  
 10.04 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitments and the Loans made by it, Société
Générale (and any successor acting as Agent) in its capacity as a Lender under the Financing Documents shall have the same rights, privileges and powers under the Financing Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not acting as the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. Société Générale (and any
successor acting as Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account for the same to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrower
(and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Agent, and Société Générale and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this
Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders. 
  
 10.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and the Collateral Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 6.06 of the Collateral Agency Agreement or Section 11.03, as
applicable, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under such Section 6.05 or Section 6.06 of the Collateral Agency Agreement or Section 11.03, as applicable) ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal
amount of the Loans held by the Lenders (or, if no Loans are at the time outstanding, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Person (including by any Lender) including, without limitation, any Environmental Claims or other obligations or liabilities
arising under any 

  


					
	 	  	- 84 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
Environmental Law arising out of or by reason of any investigation or any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
or any other documents contemplated by or referred to in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the costs and expenses which the Borrower is obligated to pay under
Section 6.06 of the Collateral Agency Agreement or Section 11.03, as applicable, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties)
or the enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement or of the other Transaction Documents or of any such other documents; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified. 
  
 10.06 Non-Reliance on Agent, Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent
shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Person of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other document referred to or provided for in this Agreement or in any other
Transaction Document or to inspect the Properties or books of the Borrower or such other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reference is hereby made to the provisions of Article VI of the Collateral Agency Agreement,
and the limitations on certain responsibilities of the Collateral Agent contained therein; the provisions of Article VI of the Collateral Agency Agreement are incorporated by this reference as if set forth in full herein. The Agent and the
Collateral Agent shall promptly make available to the Lenders (through Intralinks or otherwise) copies of all notices, reports and other documents that the Borrower is required to provide to the Lenders (including the materials contemplated in
Section 8.01 hereof) pursuant to the terms of the Financing Documents. 
  
 10.07 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of the Agent under this Agreement and under the other Financing Documents to which the Agent is intended to be a party, the Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in
failing or refusing to act under this Agreement and under the other Financing Documents unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 10.05 against any and
all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 
  
 10.08 Resignation or Removal of Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, the Agent may resign at
any time by notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent,
which successor Agent shall (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no 

  


					
	 	  	- 85 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s
giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be an Acceptable Bank which has an office in New York, New
York, which successor Agent shall (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to
and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to which it is intended to
be a party. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Article X 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 the
Agent. 
  
 10.09 Consents under Transaction Documents.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.04 with respect to any modification, supplement or waiver under this Agreement, the Agent shall, upon the prior consent of the Majority Lenders (except to the extent otherwise provided in this
Agreement), consent to (and shall direct the Collateral Agent, if applicable, to enter into) any modification, supplement or waiver under any other such Financing Document to which the Agent or the Collateral Agent is intended to be a party;
provided, that without the prior consent of each Lender, the Agent shall not (and, if applicable, shall not direct the Collateral Agent to) (except as contemplated in this Agreement or in the Security Documents) release any Collateral or
otherwise terminate any Lien under any Security Document, or agree to additional obligations being secured by the Collateral (unless the Lien for such additional obligations shall be junior to the Lien in favor of the other obligations secured by
such Security Document and is otherwise permitted under this Agreement or the Security Documents), except that no such consent shall be required, and the Agent is hereby authorized, to release (and to direct the Collateral Agent to release) any Lien
covering Property of the Borrower or any other Person which is the subject of a disposition of Property of the Borrower or such other Person which is permitted or contemplated under this Agreement or under the relevant Security Document or to which
the Lenders have otherwise consented. 
  
 10.10 Appointment of
Collateral Agent. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as its agent under the Collateral Agency Agreement to appoint the Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary thereunder on behalf of such Lender and the other Secured
Parties, such appointment subject to the terms and conditions of such agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 11.01 Waiver. No failure
on the part of the Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall operate as a waiver of such right,
remedy, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall preclude any other or further exercise of such right, remedy, power or privilege, or the
exercise of any other right, power or 

  


					
	 	  	- 86 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
privilege. The remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. All covenants of the Borrower and the
Pledgors set forth in this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and all Events of Default set forth in Section 9.01 shall be given independent effect so that, in the event that a particular action or condition is not permitted by the
terms of any such covenant or would result in a Default, the fact that such event or condition could be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant or another Event of Default shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default in the event that such action is taken or condition exists. 
  
 11.02 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications provided for in this Agreement and under the Financing Documents (including any
modifications of, or waivers or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including by telecopy) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages of
this Agreement or in the relevant section as specified in other Financing Documents, as to any party, or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by telecopy or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice or notice sent by courier, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as set forth above.

  
 11.03 Expenses; Etc. The Borrower agrees to pay or
reimburse each of the Lenders and the Agent for: (a) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent (including the reasonable fees and expenses of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, counsel to the Agent (or such other counsel
that the Agent may select from time to time which, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower)) and experts (including the Independent Engineer and the Insurance Advisor) engaged by the
Agent or the Lenders from time to time, in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the extensions of credit under this Agreement, (ii) any amendment,
modification or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (iii) the syndication of Commitments or Loans, (b) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lenders and the Agent (including reasonable counsels’
fees and expenses and reasonable experts’ fees and expenses) in connection with (i) any Default and any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from such Default or in connection with the negotiation of any restructuring or
“work-out” (whether or not consummated) of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the obligations of any Project Party under any other Transaction Document and (ii) the enforcement of this Section 11.03(b) and all
transfer, stamp, documentary or other similar taxes, assessments or charges levied by any Government Authority in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other document referred to in this Agreement or in any such other
Transaction Document and all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any Lien contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which
the Agent or the Collateral Agent is intended to be a party or any other document referred to in this Agreement or in any such other Transaction Document. 
  
 The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent and each Lender and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, attorneys and
agents (each, an 

  


					
	 	  	- 87 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
“Indemnitee”) from, and shall hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for each Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding
commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party to any such proceeding) that may at any time (including at any time following the Termination Date) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by an Indemnitee as a
result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of any claim of third parties with respect to (a) any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by any other Transaction Document or the execution, delivery or
performance of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (b) the extensions of credit under this Agreement or the actual or proposed use by the Borrower of any of the extensions of credit under this Agreement or the grant to the Agent or the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of, or to any of, the Secured Parties of any Lien on the Collateral or in any other Property of the Borrower or any other Person or any membership, partnership or equity interest in the Borrower or any other Person
and (c) the exercise by the Agent or the Collateral Agent (or the other Secured Parties) of their rights and remedies (including foreclosure) under any Security Document (but excluding, as to any Indemnitee, any Excluded Taxes, any such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements incurred solely by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction or attributable to actions or events occurring after the Borrower is divested of the applicable Collateral). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee from, and
shall hold each Indemnitee harmless against, any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, reasonable expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements described in the preceding sentence (including any Lien filed
against the Project by any Government Authority but excluding, as provided in the preceding sentence, any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements incurred
directly and primarily by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) (collectively, “Losses”) arising under any Environmental Law including any
Environmental Claims or other Losses arising as a result of the past, present or future operations of the Borrower, or the past, present or future condition of the Project, or any Release or Use or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials with
respect to the Project (including any such Release or Use or threatened Release which shall occur during any period when such Indemnitee shall be in possession of any such site or facility following the exercise by the Agent or any other Secured
Party of any of its rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any Financing Document or any other Transaction Document where such Use or Release commenced or occurred prior to such period); provided, however, that the Borrower
shall have no such obligation to indemnify any Indemnitee to the extent that any such Release or Use is caused by such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment. 
  
 11.04 Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower, the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Majority Lenders, or by the Borrower and the Agent with the consent of the
Majority Lenders, and any provision of this Agreement may be waived by the Majority Lenders or by the Agent acting with the consent

Documents or as may be permitted by Section 8.13 or the other Financing Documents or (viii) amend the definition of the term (A) ”Majority Lenders” or “Supermajority Lenders” or modify in any other manner the number or
percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights under this Agreement or to modify any provision of this Agreement, (B) ”Permitted Indebtedness” or (C) “Permitted Swap Agreements”, (b) any
amendment, modification, waiver or supplement of Article X shall require the consent of the Agent and, only to the extent Section 10.05 or Section 10.06 of Article X would be amended, modified or supplemented as a result
thereof, the Collateral Agent and (c) no amendment, modification or waiver shall, unless by an instrument signed by the Supermajority Lenders or by the Agent with the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, (i) amend the definition of “Term
Conversion Date” or (ii) amend, modify or waive the provisions of Section 8.12(g). 
  
 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time when the conditions precedent set forth in Article VI to any extension of credit under this Agreement are, in the opinion of the
Majority Lenders, satisfied, any Lender shall fail to fulfill its obligations to make such extension of credit, then, for so long as such failure shall continue, such Lender shall (unless the Majority Lenders determined as if such Lender were not a
“Lender” under this Agreement, shall otherwise consent in writing) be deemed for all purposes relating to amendments, modifications, waivers or consents under this Agreement, any other Financing Document (including under this Section
11.04 and under Section 10.09) to have no Loans or Commitments, shall not be treated as a “Lender” under this Agreement when performing the computation of Majority Lenders, and shall have no rights under the preceding paragraph
of this Section 11.04; provided, that any action taken by the other Lenders with respect to the matters referred to in clause (a) of the preceding paragraph shall not be effective as against such Lender.

Lead Arrangers (which shall continue until written notice of completion of syndication is provided by the Lead Arrangers), with the consent of the Lead Arrangers (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), after consultation with the Borrower,
(ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, with the consent of the Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) at any time not otherwise included in clause (i) or (ii), with the consent of the Agent (not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (iv) at any time to any Affiliate of any Lender or funding vehicle established by such Lender, without the consent of the Borrower or
the Agent, provided, that (A) in the case of clause (iii), the Borrower may withhold its consent if such assignment is expected to result in increased costs to the Borrower under Section 5.02, (B) in each case, any such partial
assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and (C) in the case of any partial assignment, the assigning Lender shall retain Loans or commitments of at least $5,000,000. Upon execution and delivery by the assignee to the Borrower
and the Agent of an assignment and acceptance substantially in the form of the attached Exhibit H, and upon consent to such assignment and acceptance by the Agent and the Borrower, to the extent required above, the assignee shall have, to the
extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided in such assignment with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender under this Agreement holding the Commitment and Loans (or portions thereof)
assigned to it (in addition to the Commitment and Loans, if any, previously held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the Commitment (or portion thereof) so assigned. Upon each such

of any Loan held by it, or in its Commitments (provided, that partial participations shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the assigning Lender shall retain Loans or commitments of at least $5,000,000), in which event each
purchaser of a participation (a “Participant”) shall have the rights, benefits and obligations of the provisions of Section 5.02 (except that any such Participant shall be entitled only to the extent that the Lender from
which such Participant acquired its participation is entitled, and such Lender makes such claim on its own behalf because it would have otherwise incurred the same costs) and of Section 5.04 with respect to its participation in such Loans and
Commitments (and the Borrower shall be directly obligated to such Participant under such provisions) in each case as if such Participant were a “Lender” for purposes of such Section, but, except as otherwise provided in Section
4.07(c), shall not have any other rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Financing Document (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by
such Lender in favor of the Participant). In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action under this Agreement or under any other Financing Document except that such Lender
may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or extend the term, or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination, of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii)
extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans, or any portion of any fee payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is

interest or fee, (v) alter the rights or obligations of the Borrower to prepay the related Loans or (vi) consent to any modification or waiver of this Agreement or of any Security Document to the extent that such waiver or modification, under
Section 10.09 requires the consent of each Lender. 
  
 (d)
Anything in this Section 11.06 to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure any obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to any
federal reserve lender or any assignment to a special purpose trust or other entity for purposes of securitization of such Lender’s loans. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
  
 (e) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower in the
possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 11.08(b). 
  
 (f) In connection with any assignment or sale of a participation pursuant to
this Article XI, such assignee or Participant shall comply with Section 5.04(e). 
  
 (g) Anything in this Section 11.06 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of
each Lender. 
  
 11.07 Marshalling; Recapture. None of the
Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall 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 Secured Obligations. To the extent any Lender receives any
payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, all or a portion of which payment 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 or insolvency 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 such Lender as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred. 
  
 11.08 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 

 
 (a) The Borrower acknowledges that (i) from time to time financial
advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to it (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by each Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender and (ii) information delivered to each
Lender by the Borrower may be provided to each such subsidiary and Affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or Affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of Section 11.08(b) as if it were a Lender
under this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Each Lender, the Agent and the
Collateral Agent agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to keep 

  


					
	 	  	- 91 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
confidential, in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound
banking practices, any non-public information supplied to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that is identified by the Borrower as being confidential at the time the same is delivered to such Lender, the Agent or the Collateral Agent,
including information provided by the EPC Contractor pursuant to Section 9.3 of the EPC Contract; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the disclosure of any such information (i) to the extent required by any Government Rule or
judicial process, (ii) to counsel for any of the Lenders, the Collateral Agent or the Agent, so long as counsel to such parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the information as provided in this Section 11.08(b), (iii) to bank
examiners, auditors or accountants, (iv) to the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender (or any subsidiary or Affiliate of any Lender referred to in Section 11.08(a)), (v) after notice to the Borrower (to the extent such prior notice
is legally permitted), in connection with any litigation to which any one or more of the Lenders, the Collateral Agent or the Agent is a party and pursuant to which such Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Agent has been compelled or required to
disclose such information in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Lender, the Collateral Agent or Agent, (vi) to the Independent Engineer or the Insurance Advisor or to other experts engaged by the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in
connection with the Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, so long as such parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of the information as provided in this Section 11.08(b), (vii)
to the extent that such information is required to be disclosed to a Government Authority in connection with a tax audit or dispute, (viii) in connection with any Default and any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting from such Default or
in connection with the negotiation of any restructuring or “work-out” (whether or not consummated) of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the obligations of any Project Party under any other Project Document or (ix) to
any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) first executes and delivers to the respective Lender a Confidentiality Agreement substantially in
the form of Exhibit I. In no event shall any Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower; provided, however, that any confidential information retained by
such Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Agent shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.08(b). The obligations of each Lender under this Section 11.08 shall supersede and replace the obligations of such Lender
under any confidentiality letter, or other confidentiality obligation, in respect of this financing effective prior to the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement. 
  
 11.09 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Financing
Documents, there shall be no recourse against any Affiliates of the Borrower or any of their respective stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees or agents (collectively, the “Nonrecourse Persons”), for any
liability to the Lenders, the Agent or the Collateral Agent arising under this Agreement or any other Financing Document and the Lenders, the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall look solely to the Borrower and the Collateral in exercising their
rights and remedies in connection therewith; provided, however, that (a) the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.09 shall not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of the Borrower for any of the Indebtedness or Secured
Obligations of the Borrower under, or any terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, this Agreement or any other Financing Document, and the same shall continue until fully and indefeasibly paid, 

  


					
	 	  	- 92 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
discharged, observed or performed, (b) the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.09 shall not limit or restrict the right of any Secured Party to
name the Borrower or any other Person as 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, any of the Security Documents or any other Financing Document to
which such Person is a party, or for injunction or specific performance, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment shall be enforced against any Nonrecourse Person out of any Property other than the Property of the Borrower or
the Collateral, (c) the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.09 shall not in any way limit, reduce, restrict or otherwise affect any right, power, privilege or remedy of the Secured Parties (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or
successor thereto) with respect to, and each and every Person (including each and every Nonrecourse Person) shall remain fully liable to the extent that such Person would otherwise be liable for its own actions with respect to, any fraud, gross
negligence or willful misrepresentation, or willful misappropriation of Project Revenues or any other earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits or proceeds from or of the Borrower, the Project or the Collateral that should or would have been paid
as provided in the Financing Documents or paid or delivered to the Agent (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or successor thereto) for any payment required under this Agreement or any other Financing Document and (d) nothing contained herein
shall limit the liability of: (i) any Person who is a party to any Transaction Document or (ii) any Person rendering a legal opinion pursuant to Sections 6.01(n) and 6.02(g) or otherwise, in each case under this clause (d)
relating solely to such liability of such Person as may arise under such referenced agreement, instrument or opinion. The limitations on recourse set forth in this Section 11.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the full and
indefeasible payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. 
  
 11.10 Survival. The obligations under Sections 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 11.03, 11.17, 11.18, and 11.19 and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 10.05 shall survive after the
Termination Date. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any extension of credit, in this Agreement or pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and no
Lender shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of making any extension of credit under this Agreement, any Default which may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading. 
  
 11.11 Captions. The table of contents and captions and section
headings appearing in this Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. 
  
 11.12 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any party to this Agreement may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a
single counterpart so that all signatures are physically attached to the same counterpart. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties to this Agreement with respect to the
matters covered by this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, written or oral, with respect to such matters. This Agreement shall become effective at such time as the Agent shall
have received counterparts of this Agreement signed by all of the intended parties to this Agreement. 
  


					
	 	  	- 93 -	  	CREDIT AGREEMENT








 11.13 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement shall be automatically
reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of
any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Borrower agrees that it will indemnify each Secured Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by such Secured Party in connection
with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar law. 
  
 11.14 Severability. Any provision of this
Agreement 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 of this Agreement; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 11.15 Remedies. The Borrower agrees that, as between the Borrower and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article IX (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article IX), and that, in the event of
such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations shall forthwith become due and payable by the Borrower. 
  
 11.16 NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. THE AGREEMENT OF THE LENDERS TO MAKE THE LOANS TO THE BORROWER, ON THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, IS SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY AND THE LENDERS, AND NO OTHER PERSON (INCLUDING ANY OTHER PROJECT PARTY, CONTRACTOR, SUBCONTRACTOR,
SUPPLIER, WORKMAN, CARRIER, WAREHOUSEMAN OR MATERIALMAN FURNISHING LABOR, SUPPLIES, GOODS OR SERVICES TO OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PROJECT) SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT AS AGAINST THE AGENT OR
ANY LENDER OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY EXTENSION OF CREDIT CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. 
  
 11.17 SPECIAL EXCULPATION. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE GOVERNMENT RULE, NO CLAIM MAY BE MADE BY ANY PARTY HERETO AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS,
OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, ATTORNEYS OR AGENTS FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION OR EVENT
OCCURRING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER

FINANCING DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN THE RIGHTS OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS), AND EACH PARTY HEREBY
WAIVES, RELEASES AND AGREES NOT TO SUE UPON ANY CLAIM FOR ANY SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR. 
  
 11.18 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE. THE PARTIES HEREBY SUBMIT TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT AND STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY
FOR THE PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.
THE BORROWER HEREBY APPOINTS AND DESIGNATES CT CORPORATION SYSTEM, WHOSE ADDRESS IS 111 EIGHTH AVENUE, 13TH FLOOR, NEW
YORK, NY 10011, OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAVING AND MAINTAINING A PLACE OF BUSINESS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK WHOM SUCH PLEDGOR MAY FROM TIME TO TIME HEREAFTER DESIGNATE (HAVING GIVEN 30 DAYS’ NOTICE THEREOF TO THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND EACH HOLDER OF
A NOTE THEN OUTSTANDING), AS THE DULY AUTHORIZED AGENT FOR RECEIPT OF SERVICE OF LEGAL PROCESS. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE PARTIES TO BRING PROCEEDINGS IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION OR TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER
PERMITTED BY LAW. 
  
 11.19 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS.

 Such insurance shall (a) have a deductible no greater than 45 days per
occurrence, (b) include for a period of 3 months that portion of fixed expenses and debt service not earned arising from (i) a loss or occurrence caused by the blockage of the LNG receiving terminal arising from an accident of sinking or stranding

to (a) new information not known by the Lenders on the Closing Date which poses a material risk to the Project or (b) changed circumstances after the Closing Date which in the reasonable judgment of the Agent renders such coverage materially
inadequate. 

  


					
	 	  	- 5 -	  	SCHEDULE 8.05
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 In addition, promptly following the receipt of a notice from the Agent, the Borrower will from time to
time make such modifications to the amounts of any insurance policy as the Agent specifies in that notice to take account of inflationary and other relevant factors. 
  

	 	(2)	Amendment Due To Commercial Unfeasibility: In the event any insurance (including the limits or deductibles thereof) hereby required to be maintained shall not be reasonably
available and commercially feasible in the commercial insurance market, the Agent and the Majority Lenders shall not unreasonably withhold their agreement to waive such requirement to the extent the maintenance thereof is not so available;
provided, however, that such waiver shall be conditioned on the following: 

  

	 	(a)	the Borrower shall first request any such waiver in writing, which request shall be accompanied by a written report prepared by the Insurance Advisor, certifying that such insurance
is “not reasonably available and commercially feasible” (and, in any case where the required amount is not so available, certifying as to the maximum amount which is so available) and explaining in detail the basis for such conclusions;


  

	 	(b)	at any time after the granting of any such waiver, but not more often than once a year, the Agent may request, and the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders
within fifteen (15) days after such request, supplemental reports reasonably acceptable to the Agent from the Insurance Advisor updating their prior report and reaffirming such conclusion; and 

  

	 	(c)	any such waiver shall be effective only so long as such insurance shall not be reasonable available and commercially feasible in the commercial insurance market, it being understood
that the failure of the Borrower to timely furnish any such supplemental report shall be conclusive evidence that such waiver is no longer effective because such condition no longer exists, provided that such failure is not the only way to establish
such non-existence. 

  
 The failure at any time to
satisfy the condition to any waiver of an insurance requirement set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence shall not impair or be construed as a relinquishment of the Borrower’s ability to obtain a waiver of an insurance requirement
pursuant to the preceding sentence at any other time upon satisfaction of such conditions. For purposes of this sub-section, insurance will be considered “not reasonably available and commercially feasible” if it is obtainable only at
excessive costs which are not justified in terms of the risk to be insured and is generally not being carried by or applicable to projects or operations similar to the Project because of such excessive costs.

of the Agent if such loss is in excess of $5,000,000 prior to the Substantial Completion Date and excess of $25,000,000 on or after the Substantial Completion Date. In addition the Borrower may in its reasonable judgment consent to the settlement of
any loss, provided that in the event that the amount of the loss exceeds $5,000,000 prior to the Substantial Completion Date and excess of $25,000,000 on or after the Substantial Completion Date the terms of such settlement is concurred with by the
Agent (with the consent of the Majority Lenders).

or failure to satisfy, comply or perform could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  

	 	(4)	Evidence of Insurance: On the initial date the insurance is required to be in place and on an annual basis prior to each policy anniversary, the Borrower shall furnish the
Agent with (a) certificates of insurance or binders, in a form acceptable to the Agent, evidencing all of the insurance required by the provisions of this Schedule 8.05 and (b) a schedule of the insurance policies held by or for the benefit of the
Borrower and required to be in force by the provisions of this Schedule 8.05. Such certificates of insurance/binders shall be executed by each insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer where it is not practical for such insurer to
execute the certificate itself. Such certificates of insurance/binders shall identify underwriters, the type of insurance, the insurance limits and the policy term and shall specifically list the special provisions enumerated for such insurance
required by this Schedule 8.05. Upon request, the Borrower will promptly furnish the Agent with copies of all insurance policies, binders and cover notes or other evidence of such insurance relating to the insurance required to be maintained by the
Borrower. The schedule of insurance shall include the name of the insurance company, policy number, type of insurance, major limits of liability and expiration date of the insurance policies.

that in the opinion of the Insurance Advisor, the insurance then carried or to be renewed is in accordance with the terms of this Schedule 8.05.

	 	(6)	Waiver of Subrogation: All policies of insurance to be maintained by the provisions of this Schedule 8.05 shall provide for waivers of subrogation in favor of the Lenders and

advanced by the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall become an additional obligation of the Borrower to the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the Borrower shall forthwith pay such amounts to the Agent or the Collateral
Agent, as applicable, together with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate from the date so advanced.

	(I)	Acceptable Policy Terms and Conditions: All policies of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Schedule 8.05 shall contain terms and conditions reasonably
acceptable to the Agent after consultation with the Lenders and the Insurance Advisor.

 (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Pledgor shall have the right to exercise all
voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledge Agreement Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, any Project Document or any other Transaction Document; and the Collateral Agent shall
execute and deliver to each Pledgor or cause to be executed and delivered to each Pledgor all such proxies, powers of attorney, dividend and other orders, and all such instruments, without recourse, as such Pledgor may reasonably request for the
purpose of enabling such Pledgor to exercise the rights and powers which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 5.04(a). 
  
 (b) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all Restricted Payments to which it is entitled under the Partnership Agreement and, in
the case of Sabine Pass LNG – GP, Inc., all amounts payable to it in accordance with the Management Services Agreement, and distribute as dividends or otherwise any and all such Restricted Payments, to the extent that such Restricted Payments
are made by the Borrower in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents. 
  
 (c) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party exercises any
available right to declare any Secured Obligation due and payable or seeks or pursues any other relief or remedy available to it under applicable Government Rule or under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, all Restricted Payments to
which any Pledgor is entitled under the Partnership Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents while such Event of Default continues, shall be paid directly to the Collateral Agent and retained by it as part of the Pledge
Agreement Collateral, subject to the terms of this Agreement, and, if the Collateral Agent shall so request, each Pledgor agrees to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate additional dividend, distribution and other orders and
documents to that end, provided that if such Event of Default is waived or cured, any such Restricted Payment theretofore paid to the Collateral Agent shall, upon request of such Pledgor (except to the extent theretofore applied to the
Secured Obligations), be returned by the Collateral Agent to such Pledgor.

the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and 

  


					
	 	 	- 9 -	 	EXHIBIT E
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted,
including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Pledge Agreement Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were
the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Pledgor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);

property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and 
  
 (e) the Collateral Agent shall upon the request of the Majority Lenders upon 10 Business Days’ prior
notice to each Pledgor of the time and place, with respect to the Pledge Agreement Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties
or any of their respective agents, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Pledge Agreement Collateral, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent deems best, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery
(without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable
statute and cannot be waived), and the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledge Agreement Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of any
Pledgor, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private
sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned. 
  
 The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section
5.05 shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.08 hereof. 
  
 Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of
the Pledge Agreement Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledge Agreement Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale 

  


					
	 	  	- 10 -	  	EXHIBIT E
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable
through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation
to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledge Agreement Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the respective issuer thereof to register it for public sale. 
  
 16.06 Removals, Etc. Without at least 30 days’ prior notice to
the Collateral Agent, no Pledgor shall: 
  
 (a)
maintain any of its Records at any office or maintain its principal place of business or chief executive office at any place other than at such Pledgor’s address for notices set forth on the signature pages hereto, or 
  
 (b) change its corporate name, or the name under which it
does business, from the name shown on the signature pages hereto. 
  
 16.07 Private Sale. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof
conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule, any claims against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price
at which the Pledge Agreement Collateral may have been sold at such a commercially reasonable private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even
if, to the extent that it is commercially reasonable to do so, the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Pledge Agreement Collateral to more than one offeree. 
  
 16.08 Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise herein expressly
provided, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Pledge Agreement Collateral pursuant hereto shall be remitted to the Collateral Agent in the form received with all necessary endorsements and, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule, be applied in accordance with Section 6.04 of the Security Agreement. 
  
 16.09 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent while no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default the Collateral Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of the Pledgors for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Article V and
taking any action and executing any instruments which may be reasonably required to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
so long as the Collateral Agent shall be entitled under this Article V to make collections in respect of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to
the order of the Pledgors representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Pledge Agreement Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

termination statements and such other documentation as shall be requested by such Pledgor to effect the termination and release of the Liens on such Pledge Agreement Collateral. 
  
 (b) Upon the date that the Secured Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, the security interest created by this
Agreement shall terminate and all rights to the Pledge Agreement Collateral shall revert to the Pledgors, and the Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt of written notice from the Agent that the Secured Obligations have been so paid, forthwith cause
to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Pledge Agreement Collateral and money received in respect thereof, to or on the order of the Pledgors. The

 2.07 Reliance by Holders of Senior Obligations on Subordination Provisions. Each Subordinated
Party by entering into the agreements or other instruments to which it is a party or of which it is a beneficiary evidencing Subordinated Indebtedness acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 2 are, and are intended to be,
an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Secured Obligations, whether such Secured Obligations were created or acquired before or after the issuance or incurrence of the Subordinated Indebtedness, to acquire and continue to hold, or
to continue to hold, such Secured Obligations and such holder of Secured Obligations shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Secured
Obligations. The provisions of this Section 2 may not be amended, altered or modified without the consent of the holders of such Secured Obligations. 
  
 2.08 Agent to Effectuate Subordination. Each Subordinated Party hereby appoints the Agent as its attorney-in-fact to take such actions as may be
necessary to effectuate the subordination provided for in this Section 2, including in any proceeding referred to in Section 2.02. If a Subordinated Party does not file any proof or claim of debt in any such proceeding within 30 days
prior to the last date for the filing of any such proof or claim of debt, then, so long as any Secured Obligations shall be outstanding, the Agent shall be entitled, and is hereby authorized, to file any appropriate proof or claim on behalf of the
Subordinated Party. 
  
 2.09 No Waiver of Provisions. No
right of the Agent or any holder of any Secured Obligations to enforce this Section 2 shall in any way be impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or on the part of the Agent or any such holder or by any noncompliance
by the Borrower with the terms of any agreement or instrument evidencing the Subordinated Indebtedness, the Credit Agreement or any Financing Document, whether or not the Agent or any such holder has knowledge of such noncompliance. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Agent and such holders may, without notice to or consent from the Subordinated Party and without impairing the right of the Agent or any such holder to enforce this Section 2, do any of the following:

  
 (a) amend, modify, supplement, renew,
replace, or extend the terms of all or any part of the Secured Obligations or the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document in any respect whatsoever; 
  

(b) sell or otherwise transfer, release, realize upon or enforce or otherwise deal with, all or any part of the Secured Obligations or
the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document or any collateral securing or guaranty supporting all or any part of the Secured Obligations; 
  
 (c) settle or compromise all or any part of the Secured Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Agent or any such holder
and apply any sums received to the Secured Obligations or any such liability in such manner and order as the Agent or any such holder may determine; and 
  


					
	 	 	- 4 -	 	EXHIBIT F
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (d) fail to take or to perfect, for any reason or for no reason, any Lien securing all or
any part of the Secured Obligations, exercise or delay in or refrain from exercising any remedy against the Borrower or any security or guarantor for all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or make any election of remedies or otherwise deal
freely with respect to all or any part of the Secured Obligations or any security or guaranty for all or any part of the Secured Obligations.

 [Date] 
  
 [Name of Prospective Participant or Assignee] 
 [address] 
  
 Re:    [SABINE PASS LNG PROJECT] 
  
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 Reference is made to that
certain Credit Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2005 (as amended, modified and supplemented and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among SABINE PASS LNG, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
“Borrower”), each of the lenders party to the Credit Agreement from time to time (individually, a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), SOCIÉTÉ GÉNÉRALE, as agent
for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors in such capacity, the “Agent”) and HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as collateral agent for the secured parties specified therein. Capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
  
 As a Lender party to the Credit Agreement, the undersigned (“we” or “us”) have agreed with the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Credit Agreement to keep confidential, in accordance with
our customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, any non-public information supplied to the Lenders by the Borrower that is identified by the Borrower as being
confidential at the time the same is provided to us\, other than information provided by the Borrower before the Closing Date and information provided by the EPC Contractor pursuant to Section 9.3 of the EPC Contract, all of which shall be
treated as confidential (“Confidential Information”). 
  
 As provided in Section 11.08(b) of the Credit Agreement, we are permitted to provide you, as a prospective Participant or assignee, with Confidential Information subject to your agreement to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential
Information as provided pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Credit Agreement. To comply with the terms of Section 11.08(b), Confidential Information will not be made available to you until your execution and delivery to us of this Confidentiality
Agreement. 
  
 Accordingly, in consideration of the foregoing, you
agree (on behalf of yourself and each of your subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys, advisors and representatives) that (a) Confidential Information will not be used by you except in connection with the proposed
participation or assignment mentioned above and (b) you shall diligently use precautions, in accordance with your customary procedures for handling confidential information and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices to keep Confidential
Information confidential; provided, that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any Confidential 

  


					
	 	  	- 1 -	  	EXHIBIT I
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
Information: (i) to the extent required by any Government Rule or judicial process, (ii) to your counsel or to counsel for the Agent, or any of the Lenders,
or the Collateral Agent (to the extent not otherwise subject to this Confidentiality Agreement or to Section 11.08(b) of the Credit Agreement), (iii) to auditors or accountants in connection with financial or regulatory auditing or reporting
functions, (iv) after notice to the Borrower (to the extent such prior notice is legally permitted), in connection with any litigation to which you or the Agent or any one or more of the Lenders are a party and pursuant to which any such Person has
been compelled or required to disclose such information in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Person, (v) to a subsidiary or affiliate of yours, but subject to Section 11.08(b) of the Credit Agreement, provided, that such subsidiary or
affiliate shall be informed by you of the confidential nature of such information and shall be directed by you to treat such information in accordance with the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement (vi) to the Independent Engineer, the Insurance
Advisor or to other experts engaged by the Agent, any Lender or the Collateral Agent in connection with the Credit Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (provided, that such other expert first executes and delivers to you a
Confidentiality Agreement substantially in the form hereof), (vii) to the extent that such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed to a Government Authority in connection with a tax audit or dispute, (viii) in connection with any
Default and any enforcement or collection proceedings resulting therefrom or in connection with the negotiation of any restructuring or “work-out” (whether or not consummated) of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement
or the obligations of any Project Party under any other Project Document or to the extent in the public domain (except for any Confidential Information in the public domain as a result of this Confidentiality Agreement or Section 11.08 of the Credit
Agreement), or (ix) to the extent to which the Borrower gives its prior written consent to the making of such disclosure. You agree that you will notify the Agent as soon as practical in the event of any such disclosure (other than as a result of an
examination by any regulatory agency), unless such notification shall be prohibited by applicable law or legal process. 
  
 In the event you do not become a Participant or Lender under the Credit Agreement, you shall be obligated to return or destroy any materials furnished to
you (or furnished to you by any disclosee, as permitted by the paragraph immediately above) pursuant to this Confidentiality Agreement, without retaining any copies thereof unless prohibited from doing so by your internal policies and procedures.

  
 You shall have no obligation hereunder with respect to any
Confidential Information to the extent that such information (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by you, one of your affiliates, or your respective representatives and agents, in violation of
this Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) was within your possession prior to its being furnished to you pursuant hereto, provided that the source of such information was not known by you to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other
contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the Borrower, its affiliates or any other party with respect to such information or (iii) is or becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the
Borrower, its affiliates and their respective representatives and agents, provided that such source is not known by you to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to
the Borrower, its affiliates or any other party with respect to such information. 
  


					
	 	  	- 2 -	  	EXHIBIT I
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph,
[                    ] agrees to indemnify us for any and all liabilities and breaches of this Confidentiality Agreement. The Borrower is the
intended beneficiary of this Confidentiality Agreement. [                    ] agrees that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for
any breaches under this Confidentiality Agreement by it or its representatives or agents and the Agent shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief, without proof of actual damages, as remedies for any such breach. Such remedies
shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies under this Confidentiality Agreement, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity to the Agent. Neither the Agent nor we shall be liable to you for any special,
consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory or liability arising out of or relating to, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection with this Confidentiality Agreement, and you
hereby waive, release and agree not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in your favor. 
  
 This Confidentiality Agreement contains the sole and entire agreement between you and us with respect to Confidential
Information. If any portion of this Confidentiality Agreement is for any reason held to be invalid or illegal or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion will be deemed to be separate, distinct and independent and the
remainder of this Confidentiality Agreement will be and remain in full force an effect and will not be invalidated or rendered invalid or illegal or unenforceable or otherwise affected by such holding or adjudication. 
  
 This Confidentiality Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
  
 This Confidentiality Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only by a separate written instrument executed by you and us. 
  
 This Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate on the date occurring three
years from the date hereof unless and until you become a Participant or Lender under the Credit Agreement, in which case the terms of the Credit Agreement shall immediately supersede the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement. 
  
 This Confidentiality Agreement may be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.

 19.04 Attorney-in-Fact. Subject to the rights of the Borrower under
Sections 2.05 and 2.06, the Borrower hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, taking any action and executing any instruments which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or reasonably advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, to preserve the validity, perfection and priority of the Liens granted by

for making any Instruments pledged by the Borrower available to the Borrower for purposes of presentation, collection or renewal. Any such arrangement shall be effected, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, against trust receipt
or like document. Proceeds of Instruments shall be applied by the Borrower in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Collateral Agency Agreement.

 (a) The Borrower shall remain liable to perform its duties and obligations under the contracts and agreements included in
the Collateral in accordance with their respective terms to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed and delivered. The exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Lender of any right, remedy, power or privilege in respect of this
Agreement shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have a duty, obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements or in
respect to any Government Approval included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Lender be obligated to perform any of the duties or obligations of the Borrower under

 (b) No Lien granted by this Agreement in the Borrower’s right, title and
interest in any contract, agreement or Government Approval shall be deemed to be a consent by the Collateral Agent or any Lender to any such contract, agreement or Government Approval. 
  
 (c) No reference in this Agreement to proceeds or to the sale or other disposition of Collateral shall authorize the
Borrower to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral except to the extent otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of any Financing Document.

and (c) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the occurrence of the
Termination Date, this Agreement and each provision hereof (including any provision providing for the appointment of the Collateral Agent as attorney-in-fact for the Borrower) shall terminate, and upon receipt of written notice from the Agent that
the Termination Date has occurred, the Collateral Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in
respect of the Collateral, to or on the order of the Borrower. The Collateral Agent shall also execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, upon receipt of written notice from the Agent of such Termination Date, such Uniform

to any property disposed of in accordance with Section 8.11(a) of the Credit Agreement, upon written confirmation from the Agent, which confirmation shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the Collateral Agent shall execute such documents as
the Borrower may reasonably request evidencing the release of the Lien created by any of the Financing Documents upon such property. 
  
 19.10 Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights, remedies, powers and privileges under

an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Borrower) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property of the Borrower which is directly related to, or necessary and
incidental to the use of, any of the Collateral, together with reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout of those items.

agrees that if the proceeds of any Collateral hereunder (including the payments made in respect of the Collateral Accounts) shall be received by it, the Borrower shall as promptly as possible transfer such Proceeds to the Collateral Agent for
deposit to the Reserve Account. Until so deposited, all such proceeds shall be held in trust by the Borrower for and as the property of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of the Borrower.

 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 As of and on the date hereof, and as of and on the date of each extension of credit by the Lenders pursuant to the Credit
Agreement, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as follows: 
  
 21.01 Title. The Borrower is the sole beneficial owner of the Collateral in which it purports to grant a security interest pursuant to Section
2, and such Collateral is free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens. 
  
 21.02 No Other Financing Statements. The Borrower has not executed and is not aware of any currently effective financing statement or other instrument similar in effect that is on file in any recording office
covering all or any part of the Borrower’s interest in the Collateral, except such as may have been filed pursuant to this Agreement and the other Financing Documents evidencing Permitted Liens, and so long as any portion of the Commitments
have not been terminated or any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid, the Borrower will not execute or authorize to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any
jurisdiction) or statements relating to the Collateral, except for (i) financing statements filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted hereby by the Borrower, (ii) financing statements filed or to be filed in
respect of Permitted Liens or (iii) precautionary financing statements filed or to be filed in respect of operating leases of equipment entered into by the Borrower. The Borrower has not assigned any of its rights under the Instruments referred to

(within the meaning of common law applicable to this Agreement), sole dominion, or “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) over any interest in any Collateral Accounts or any funds or other property deposited therein.

  
 21.03 Perfection Representations. 
  
 (a) The name of the Borrower shown on the signature pages to this Agreement
is the exact legal name of the Borrower. The Borrower’s “location” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) is Delaware. The offices where the Borrower keeps Records concerning the Collateral and a set of the original
counterparts of the Assigned Agreements are located at the addresses specified for the Borrower in Section 10.02, or such other location as specified in the most recent notice delivered pursuant to Section 5.01. 
  
 (b) The Borrower has not (1) within the period of four months prior to the
date hereof, changed its “location” (within the meaning of the UCC), (2) changed its name, or (3) heretofore become a “new debtor” (within the meaning of the UCC) with respect to a currently effective security agreement
previously entered into by any other Person.

Schedule 4.04 attached hereto, the Collateral Agent’s Liens in the Collateral granted hereunder shall be valid, continuing (subject to any
requirement of the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the filing of continuation statements), and perfected to the extent any such Lien may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement or other appropriate instrument. Upon the execution
and delivery of the Collateral Agency Agreement and the establishment of the Collateral Accounts, the Collateral Agent’s Liens in the Collateral Accounts and in any funds or other property from time to time deposited therein shall be valid,
continuing, and perfected to the extent any such Lien may be perfected by “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code). All other action necessary or reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to protect and perfect the
Liens in the Collateral has been duly taken with respect to any Collateral that the Borrower now owns or in which the Borrower now has a right. The Liens granted by this Agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties are subject to no other Liens, except Permitted Liens.

Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may require the Borrower to, and the Borrower shall, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and the Borrower, designated in the
Collateral Agent’s request;

Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may, in its name or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for all or any part of the
Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; 
  
 (d) the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower of the time and place, with respect to all or any part of the Collateral which shall then be or shall thereafter

times as the Collateral Agent deems best, for cash, on credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk) and at 

  


					
	 	  	- 11 -	  	EXHIBIT J
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition of or time or place of any such sale (except such
notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any other Person may be the purchaser, lessee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any
public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Borrower,
any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released to the extent permitted by applicable Government Rule. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale pursuant to any such notice. The Collateral
Agent may, in its sole discretion, at any such sale restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of business and investment intention to the extent necessary to comply with applicable Government Rule. The Collateral
Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the
sale may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the full selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but
neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold pursuant
to the provisions hereof; and 
  
 (e) the
Collateral Agent shall have, and in its sole discretion may exercise, all of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code
is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights, remedies, powers and privileges are asserted) and such additional rights, remedies, powers and privileges to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges in respect of this Agreement or the Collateral may be asserted, including the right, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Government Rule, 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 of the Collateral (and the Borrower agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right). 
  
 The proceeds of, and other realization upon, the Collateral by virtue of the
exercise of remedies under this Section 6.01 shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.04. 
  
 23.02 Deficiency. If the proceeds of, or other realization upon, the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of remedies under Section 6.01 are
insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such exercise and the payment in full of the other Secured Obligations, the Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency. 
  
 23.03 Private Sale. The Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall incur no liability as a result of the sale, lease or
other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral at any private sale pursuant to Section 6.01 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. To the extent 
  


					
	 	  	- 12 -	  	EXHIBIT J
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
permitted by applicable Government Rule, the Borrower hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent or any Lender arising by reason of the fact that
the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which 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. 
  
 23.04 Application of Proceeds. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the proceeds of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral by virtue of the exercise of remedies under
Section 6.01, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under Article III or this Article VI at the time of the exercise of such remedies, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms
of the Collateral Agency Agreement. 
  
 As used in this Article
VI, “proceeds” of Collateral shall mean cash, securities and other property realized in respect of, and distributions in kind of, Collateral, including any property received under any bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar
proceeding as to the Borrower or any issuer of, or account debtor or other Borrower on, any of the Collateral. 
  
 ARTICLE XXIV 
  
 COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM 
  
 If the Borrower fails to perfect or maintain the Liens created hereunder, or fails to maintain the required priority of the Liens created hereunder, the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, (after three (3) Business
Days’ notice to the Borrower), unless the Borrower is diligently pursuing a cure for such failure that cannot be obtained more quickly by the Collateral Agent’s performance as specified herein, itself perform, or cause the performance of,
such obligations, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Borrower. 
  
 ARTICLE XXV 
  
 REINSTATEMENT 
  
 This Agreement and the Lien created hereunder shall automatically be reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded
or must otherwise be restored by any holder of the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. 
  
 ARTICLE XXVI 
  
 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS

	2.01	Collateral Agent. 

  
 (a) Acceptance of Appointment of the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent is hereby appointed to act as Collateral Agent and it
hereby agrees to act as Collateral Agent under the express terms of this Agreement. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Collateral Agent shall act solely as Collateral Agent under the express terms of this
Agreement. The Collateral Agent is, and shall act as, the “Securities Intermediary” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(14)(ii) of the UCC) with respect to the Collateral Accounts and pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Collateral Accounts Established. The Collateral
Agent acknowledges, confirms and agrees that it has established the Collateral Accounts as set out in Section 2.02(a), which shall be maintained in the name of the Borrower but under the exclusive “control” (within the meaning of
Section 8-106(d) of the UCC) of the Collateral Agent at all times until the termination of this Agreement. 
  
 (c) Confirmation and Agreement. The Collateral Agent acknowledges, confirms and agrees that, as of the Closing Date and as of each
date on which any Collateral Account is established pursuant to this Agreement: 
  
 (i) each Collateral Account is a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC) in respect of which the
Collateral Agent is a securities intermediary and to the extent of any cash credited to such Collateral Account is a “deposit account” (within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC); 
  
 (ii) the Collateral Agent is the “entitlement
holder” (within the meaning of 8-102(a)(7) of the UCC) of all “security entitlements” (within the meaning of 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) carried in or credited to the Collateral Accounts; 
  


					
	 	  	- 4 -	  	EXHIBIT K
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (iii) all property delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement will be
promptly credited to a Collateral Account; 
  
 (iv) all “financial assets” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC) in registered form or payable to or to the order of and credited to any Collateral Account shall be registered in the name of, payable to or to the
order of, or specially endorsed to, the Collateral Agent or in blank, or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Collateral Agent; 
  

(v) the Collateral Agent shall promptly comply with all written instructions (including instructions directing the disposition of funds
or financial assets) and/or “entitlement orders” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) originated by the Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral Account; and 
  
 (vi) the Collateral Agent shall not change the name or
account number of any Collateral Account without the prior written consent of the other Agents and the Borrower.

obligation, share, participation, interest or other property whatsoever) credited to any Collateral Account shall be treated as a financial asset under Article 8 of the UCC. 
  
 (e) Entitlement Orders; Control. The parties to this Agreement hereby agree that until the Collateral
Agent’s obligations under this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with the terms hereof, the Collateral Agent shall have “control” (within the meaning of Section 8-106(d) of the UCC) of the Borrower’s security entitlements
with respect to the financial assets credited to the Collateral Accounts. 
  
 (f) Degree of Care; Liens. The Collateral Agent shall exercise the same degree of care in administering the funds held in the Collateral Accounts and the investments purchased from such funds in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement as the Collateral Agent exercises in the ordinary course of its day-to-day business in administering other funds and investments for its own account and as required by applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall perform
its obligations hereunder in accordance with generally accepted banking industry standards. The Collateral Agent is not party to and shall not execute and deliver, or otherwise become bound by, any agreement under which the Collateral Agent agrees
with any Person to comply with entitlement orders or instructions originated by such Person relating to any of the Collateral Accounts or the security entitlements that are the subject of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall not grant or
suffer to exist any lien, pledge or security interest in any financial asset that is the subject of any security entitlement that is the subject of this Agreement and shall, if any such lien, pledge or security interest shall nevertheless be
created, cause the prompt release or discharge of the same.

credit of the Collateral Accounts will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Collateral Agent (except to the extent of returned items and chargebacks either for uncollected
checks or other items of payment and transfers previously credited to one or more of the Collateral Accounts, and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to debit the relevant Collateral Account(s) for such amounts). 
  
 (h) No Other Agreements. Neither the Collateral Agent
nor the Borrower have entered or will enter into any agreement with respect to any Collateral Account or any security entitlements or any financial assets carried in or credited to any Collateral Account, other than this Agreement and the other
Financing Documents. 
  
 (i) Notice of Adverse
Claims. The Collateral Agent hereby represents that, except for the claims and interests of the Borrower in each of the Collateral Accounts, the Collateral Agent, as of the Closing Date, has no knowledge of, and has received no notice of any
claim to, or interest in, any Collateral Account or in any security entitlement or financial asset carried therein or credited thereto. If any Person asserts any lien (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or
similar process) against any Collateral Account or in any security entitlement or financial asset carried therein or credited thereto and if the Collateral Agent has notice of such assertion, the Collateral Agent will promptly notify the other
Agents and the Borrower thereof.

Rights and Powers of the Collateral Agent. The rights and powers granted to the Collateral Agent by the Secured Parties have been granted in order to perfect the lien of the Secured Parties in the Collateral Accounts and the security

 ARTICLE III 
  
 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO COLLATERAL ACCOUNTS 
  

	3.01	Permitted Investments. 

  
 (a) Permitted Investments. Pending the application of funds in accordance with Articles III and IV, funds held in any
Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Collateral Agent upon written direction of the Borrower (which may be in the form of a standing instruction) only in Permitted Investments, and with respect to those amounts next anticipated
to be transferred or withdrawn, having a scheduled maturity no later than such next anticipated cash withdrawal or transfer from such Collateral Account; provided, however, that: (i) upon the receipt by the Borrower of notice of a
Trigger Event delivered by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.04 and unless otherwise directed therein, or (ii) in the event of any failure by the Borrower to so direct the Collateral Agent in writing on or prior to the day on
which any funds are (A) received by the Collateral Agent or (B) transferred between Collateral Accounts in accordance with this Agreement as to the investment of such funds, such investments and reinvestments shall be made by the Collateral Agent in
Permitted Investments of the type referred to in clause (f) of the definition of “Permitted Investments”. All funds in a Collateral Account that are invested pursuant to this Section 3.01(a) shall be deemed to be held in such
Collateral Account for purposes of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and shall constitute part of the Collateral. The Borrower shall bear all risk of loss of capital from investments in Permitted Investments. 
  
 (b) Liability of Collateral Agent. 
  
 (i) Other than with respect to Permitted Investments
required to be invested by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the proviso in Section 3.01(a), the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to determine whether any investment or reinvestment of monies in any Collateral Account satisfies
the criteria set out in the definition of “Permitted Investment”. 
  


					
	 	  	- 8 -	  	EXHIBIT K
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (ii) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss resulting from any investment
in any Permitted Investment or the sale, disposition, redemption or liquidation of such investment or by reason of the fact that the proceeds realized in respect of such sale, disposition, redemption or liquidation were less than that which might
otherwise have been obtained. 
  
 (c)
Liquidation to Make Disbursements. If and when cash is required for the making of any transfer, disbursement or withdrawal in accordance with Articles III and IV, the Borrower shall cause Permitted Investments to be sold or
otherwise liquidated into cash (without regard to maturity) as and to the extent necessary in order to make such transfers, disbursements or withdrawals required pursuant to Articles III and IV by giving written notice of such sale or
liquidation to the Collateral Agent. In the event any such investments are redeemed prior to the maturity thereof, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss or penalties relating thereto. 
  
 (d) Income from Investments. The proceeds from the
investment of monies in any Collateral Account in Permitted Investments shall be deposited by the Collateral Agent into the Revenue Account on or before the second Business Day following the month in which such interest, gain or other amount is
earned and received; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, such proceeds shall consist of interest, gain and other amounts received in respect of an investment of principal and not the principal itself. Any interest, gain or other amount
of income earned on Permitted Investments shall be for the account of the Borrower for income tax purposes. 
  

	3.02	Withdrawal and Transfer Procedure. 

  
 (a) Maintenance of Funds in Accounts; Withdrawals. Until withdrawn or transferred pursuant to and in accordance with this
Agreement, any amounts deposited into a Collateral Account (other than income from investments transferred to the Revenue Account pursuant to Section 3.01(d)) shall be held in such Collateral Account. All withdrawals and transfers from any
Collateral Account shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Articles III and IV. 
  
 (b) Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request
withdrawals or transfers of monies from any Collateral Account without having provided a Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate authorizing such withdrawal and/or transfer. Withdrawals or transfers from any Collateral Account (except as otherwise expressly
provided herein) shall be made by the Collateral Agent following receipt of (and in accordance with) a Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate signed by the Borrower and countersigned by the Administrative Agent (an “Executed Withdrawal/Transfer
Certificate”). Each Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate shall request withdrawals and transfers to and from Collateral Accounts in the amounts, at the times and in the order of priority set out in Article IV. 
  
 (c) Delivery to Agent and Form of Withdrawal/Transfer
Certificate. On the Funding Date and no later than five Business Days prior to each Monthly Transfer Date, at least five Business Days prior to the Final Funding Date, the Borrower shall deliver for 

  


					
	 	  	- 9 -	  	EXHIBIT K
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

Date):

 (C) the relevant Withdrawal Date on which such withdrawal or transfer is to be made; 
  
 (D) the purpose for which the amount so withdrawn or transferred is to be applied (if not evident from the nature of the payment or

 (E) all
other information required to be provided in such Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate under, or to evidence compliance with, the relevant provisions of Articles III and IV; and

Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate (or an amended Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate, as applicable) is inconsistent with, or otherwise fails to satisfy the requirements of, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Collateral Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly but in no case later than the third Business Day following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate and may either (I)
return such Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate (or such amended certificate, as applicable) to the Borrower with its determinations noted thereon; or (II) in consultation with the Borrower, make such corrections as it reasonably deems necessary to
satisfy the requirements of this Agreement. In the event that the Administrative Agent makes any revisions to a Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate as described above, it shall promptly provide a

	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
copy of the same, as so revised, to the Collateral Agent and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower will endeavor to agree and complete the
final form Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate (or any amended or corrected certificate), and deliver such certificate to the Collateral Agent, no later than the Business Day prior to the Withdrawal Date to which such certificate relates. 
  
 (ii) The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent each
shall countersign any accepted Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate (or any amended or corrected Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate, as applicable) (which acceptance or counter-signature shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Collateral
Agent shall implement such Executed Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate (or such amended or corrected certificate, as applicable) in accordance with Section 3.02(e) and the other provisions of this Agreement. 
  
 (iii) Nothing in this Section 3.02(d) shall preclude

assuming that Restoration Work on the Project proceeds in accordance with the Restoration Plan;

 (v) Abandonment of or Failure to Pursue

below. 
  
 (vi) Application to Secured
Obligations. In the event that funds on deposit in the Insurance Proceeds Account are to be applied to the prepayment of Secured Obligations pursuant to this Section 4.08(b), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans on the date falling two
Business Days after the date that such amounts are to be so applied pursuant to this Section 4.08(b) (such date, the “Loss Proceeds Prepayment Date”) in an amount equal to the Net Available Amount of the Loss Proceeds
received in respect of the applicable Event of Loss minus any amounts withdrawn from the Insurance Proceeds Account in respect of such Event of Loss prior to such date in accordance with clauses (i) through (v) of this Section

negligence or willful misconduct of any such Person as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). 

  
 5.02 Filing Fees, Excise Taxes, Etc. The Borrower agrees to pay or to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent on demand for any and all amounts in respect of all search, filing and recording fees, taxes, excise taxes, sales taxes and other similar imposts which may be payable or determined to be payable in respect of the execution, delivery,

interest with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees (except to the extent that such liabilities, costs, claims, expenses, penalties and interest result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of any such Person as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 THE
COLLATERAL AGENT 
  

	6.01	General. The provisions of this Article VI are solely for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and, except to
the extent expressly provided in this Article VI, the Borrower shall have no rights or obligations under this Article VI against the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party; provided that the
Collateral Agent shall be liable to the Borrower for the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the eligibility of or affording protection to the Collateral Agent shall be subject to the provision of this Article VI. 

  

	6.02	Reliance by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent (to the extent indicated in Section 2.01(c)) shall be entitled to rely upon any officer’s
certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other relevant certificate, notice or other document (including any cable, telegram or telecopy) believed by it to be 

  


					
	 	  	- 26 -	  	EXHIBIT K
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
genuine and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and shall have no liability for its actions taken thereupon, unless
due to the Collateral Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall be required to make payments to the Agents, the Secured
Parties or other Persons only as set forth herein. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement (a) if such action would, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, be contrary to
applicable law or the terms of this Agreement, (b) if such action is not specifically provided for in this Agreement and it shall not have received any such advice or concurrence of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower as it deems appropriate or
(c) if, in connection with the taking of any such action that would constitute an exercise of remedies under this Agreement or the Credit Agreement, it shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction or as required by this Agreement or the Credit
Agreement against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement in accordance with any Executed Withdrawal/Transfer Certificate, any Remedies Direction or other instruction of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (in each case to the extent such Person is expressly authorized hereunder to direct
the Collateral Agent to take or refrain from taking such action), and such action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Agents and the Secured Parties. In the event that the Collateral Agent is required to
perform any action on a particular date only following the delivery of an officer’s certificate or other document, the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing to perform such action if it has not first received such officer’s
certificate or other document and shall be fully justified in continuing to fail to perform such action until such time as it has received such officer’s certificate or other document. 
  

	6.03	Court Orders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to obey and comply with all writs, orders, judgments or decrees issued by any court or administrative agency
affecting any money, documents or things held by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or any other Secured Party, their successors, heirs or personal representatives by reason of the Collateral
Agent’s compliance with such writs, orders, judgments or decrees, notwithstanding such writ, order, judgment or decree is later reversed, modified, set aside or vacated. 

  

	6.04	Resignation or Removal. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor the Collateral Agent as provided below, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by
giving notice thereof to the parties hereto, and the Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint, with the
consent of the Borrower (unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent
hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, 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 

  


					
	 	  	- 27 -	  	EXHIBIT K
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
hereunder. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
following the delivery by the Collateral Agent of a notice of resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent, in its discretion, may tender into the custody of a court of competent jurisdiction all assets then held by it hereunder, and thereupon
shall be discharged from its duties hereunder. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article VI shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any
actions taken, suffered or omitted while it was acting as Collateral Agent. A retiring Collateral Agent shall also be deemed to retire as the Securities Intermediary, and any successor Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be the successor Securities
Intermediary. 
  

	6.05	Exculpatory Provisions. 

  
 (a) Recitals; Value of Collateral; Etc. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its affiliates shall be responsible to the
Borrower, any other Agent or any Secured Party for: (i) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower contained in this Agreement or any other Financing Document or in any certificates or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by any Secured Party under, this Agreement or any other Financing Document; (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Document or any
other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or the perfection, priority or validity of any of the Liens created by the Financing Documents; or (iii) any failure by the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

 (c) Initiation of Litigation, Etc. The Collateral
Agent shall not be: (i) required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceeding hereunder or under any other Financing Document; or (ii) responsible for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder (except for

Depository Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or liens upon the Depository Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Depository Collateral.

	 	 	- 28 -	 	EXHIBIT K
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (f) Limitation of Liability. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to
relieve the Collateral Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Collateral Agent shall be under
no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Administrative Agent and except to the extent of income or other gain on investments that are deposits in or certificates of deposits or other
obligations of the Collateral Agent in its commercial capacity and income or other gain actually received by the Collateral Agent on Permitted Investments. 
  
 (g) Indemnification. The Borrower shall indemnify the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary against any liabilities,
costs, claims, expenses, penalties and interest by reason of any claims of third parties (other than the Lenders) resulting from the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any transactions contemplated hereby (except to
the extent that such liabilities, costs, claims, expenses, penalties and interest result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or the Securities Intermediary as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction). 
  

	6.06	Fees; Expenses. The Collateral Agent shall be compensated for its services hereunder in accordance with the agreed fee schedule attached hereto as Schedule II.
The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Collateral Agent (including reasonable fees and expenses for legal services) in respect of, or incident to, the preparation, delivery, execution, administration or
enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement or in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent relating to this Agreement. 

  

	6.07	Reports; Documents. The Collateral Agent shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, who in turn shall promptly provide to the Secured Parties, a
monthly statement of all deposits to, disbursements from and interest and earnings credited to each Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent has delivered to the Collateral Agent a true and correct copy of the Credit Agreement (including

 ARTICLE VII 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	7.01	No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto or any Secured Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder and no
course of dealing between parties hereto shall impair any such right, power or privilege or operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise by any party hereto or any Secured Party of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. The rights, powers and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any fights, powers or remedies which any party thereto would
otherwise have. No notice to 

  


					
	 	 	- 29 -	 	EXHIBIT K
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
or demand by any party hereto or any Secured Party on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar
or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any party hereto or any Secured Party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 
  

	7.02	Notices. All notices, payment instructions, Remedies Directions and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be (a) in writing and be
considered as properly given and be deemed effective in accordance with Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement; and (b) sent to a party hereto at its address and contact number specified in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement, or at such
other address and contact number as is designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto; provided, that with respect to determining whether any notice, payment instruction, Remedies Direction or other communication to
the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent has been given hereunder, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, such notice shall be deemed effectively given and received on the actual day of receipt by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent, as the case may be, of such notice, payment instruction, Remedies Direction or other communication at its designated office for delivery of notices. 

  

	7.03	Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. 

  

	7.04	Benefit of Agreement; Successors and Assigns. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and

 (b) In the event that any

Collateral Agent: (i) a Secured Party Addition Agreement and (ii) such other documentation as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Upon execution and delivery of a Secured Party Addition Agreement, a counterparty to a Permitted Swap
Agreement shall be deemed to be a Secured Party for all purposes under the Financing Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing, the counterparty to a Permitted Swap Agreement shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the provisions of the
Credit Agreement for the limited purposes of indemnifying the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10.05 thereof (assuming for purposes of calculating such Person’s liability to make payments on any indemnity claimed thereunder, that any net
settlement amount payable to such counterparty to a Permitted Swap Agreement is treated as such Person’s outstanding principal amount of Loans). 
  

	7.05	Third-Party Beneficiaries. The covenants contained herein are made solely for the benefit of the parties hereto, and successors and assigns of such parties as
specified herein, and shall not be construed as having been intended to benefit any third-party not a party to this Agreement.

	7.06	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed
and delivered, shall be effective for purposes of binding the parties hereto, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 

  

	7.07	Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be effective on the date first above written. 

  

	7.08	Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents, including the documents referred to herein, constitute the entire agreement and understanding of
the parties hereto, and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, written or oral, of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof. 

  

	7.09	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) the other
provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in order to carry out the intentions of the parties hereto as nearly as may be possible; and (b) the invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  

	7.10	Conflict with Other Agreements. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the parties agree that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this
Agreement (or any portion thereof) and the provisions of any other Financing Document or any other agreement (other than the Credit Agreement) now existing or hereafter entered into, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall control. In the event that in connection with the
establishment of any of the Collateral Accounts with the Collateral Agent, the Borrower shall enter into any agreement, instrument or other document with the Collateral Agent which has terms that are in conflict with or inconsistent with the terms
of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 

  

	7.11	Dealings With the Borrower. Upon any application or demand (other than a Payment Instruction) by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent to take or permit any action

Certificate) signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement or any other Security Document relating to the proposed action have been complied with. In the case of any
such application or demand as to which the furnishing of specified documents is required by any provision of this Agreement or any other Security Document relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need
be furnished. 

  

	7.12	Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of
New York and the provisions of Section 11.18 and Section 11.19 of the Credit 

  


					
	 	 	- 31 -	 	EXHIBIT K

Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, as if fully set out in this Agreement and each reference in any such Section
of the Credit Agreement to the “Agreement”, “herein”, “hereunder” and like terms shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in any Financing Document to
the contrary, for purposes of the UCC, the “security intermediary’s jurisdiction” (within the meaning of Section 8-110(e) of the UCC) with respect to the Collateral Accounts is the State of New York. 
  

	7.13	Termination. Upon the Termination Date, this Agreement shall (except as otherwise expressly set out herein) terminate and be of no further force and effect;
provided, that the obligations of the Borrower pursuant to Sections 6.05(e), (f) and (g), Section 6.06 and Section 7.12 shall survive the Termination Date. 

  

	7.14	Reinstatement. This Agreement and the obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if (and
to the extent that) at any time payment and performance of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder, or any part thereof, is rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Agent or any other Secured Party. In the
event that any payment or any part thereof is so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, such obligations shall be reinstated on the same terms and conditions applicable thereto prior to the payment of the rescinded, reduced, restored or returned
amount, and shall be deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

  

	7.15	Attorney-In-Fact. For the purposes of allowing the Agents to exercise their rights and remedies upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the
Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints each Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Borrower and
in the name of the Borrower or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any appropriate action and to execute any document or instrument that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of
this Agreement. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall promptly inform the Collateral Agent in writing that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and that the Administrative Agent is
exercising remedies under this Section 7.15.

 FORM OF
CONSENT AND AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS CONSENT AND AGREEMENT (this
“Consent and Agreement”), dated as of [    ], 2005, is made among [                    ] (the
“Obligor”), SABINE PASS LNG, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Assignor”), and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, in its capacity as collateral agent (in such capacity, together with its successors in
such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”). 
  
 The
Assignor owns and is constructing a LNG receiving terminal in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, featuring a regasification design capacity of 2.6 billion cubic feet per day, two docks and three storage tanks (the “Project”). The Obligor
and the Assignor have entered into the [             Agreement] dated as of
[                    ], 2005 (the “Assigned Agreement”). The Assignor, the Collateral Agent and certain other financial
institutions are party to the Credit Agreement dated as of February 25, 2005 (the “Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which the financial institutions party thereto agreed to finance certain costs of developing, constructing and
operating the Project. The Assignor and the Collateral Agent have entered into certain security documents in connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement (the “Security Documents”), pursuant to which the Assignor has
pledged and assigned to the Collateral Agent a lien on, and a security interest in, all of the Assignor’s right, title and interest in the Assigned Agreement. 
  
 1. Consent and Agreement. 
  

(a) The Obligor hereby acknowledges and irrevocably consents to the assignment by the Assignor of all its right, title and interest in
the Assigned Agreement to the Collateral Agent as collateral security for the payment and performance by the Assignor of its obligations under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Obligor acknowledges the right of the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an event of default under the Credit Agreement, to exercise and enforce all rights of the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Assigned Agreement. 
  
 (c) Upon the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the
remedies set forth in the Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may assign its rights and interests and the rights and interests of the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement to any Person that (i) is a purchaser or transferee of the Assignor or
the Project and (ii) assumes the obligations of the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement. 
  
 (d) The Obligor acknowledges and agrees, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Assigned Agreement, that neither of the
following events shall constitute a default by the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement or require the consent of the Obligor: (i) the operation of the Project by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent following the occurrence and continuance of an
event of default under the Credit Agreement and the related documents or (ii) foreclosure or any other enforcement of the Security Documents by the Collateral Agent; provided, that the actions taken pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) otherwise
comply with applicable law. 
  


					
	 	  	- 1 -	  	EXHIBIT L
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Assigned Agreement, the Obligor shall
not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, cancel, suspend performance under or terminate the Assigned Agreement unless the Obligor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent written notice stating that it is entitled to do so
under the Assigned Agreement and that it intends to exercise such right on a date not less than 90 days after the date of such notice. The Obligor’s notice shall specify the nature of the default giving rise to its right to cancel, suspend
performance under or terminate the Assigned Agreement and the Obligor shall permit either the Assignor or the Collateral Agent or both to cure such default. Nothing herein shall require the Collateral Agent to cure any default of the Assignor under
the Assigned Agreement or to perform any act, duty or obligation of the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement, but shall only give it the option to do so. 
  
 (f) In the event the Collateral Agent or its designee or assignee succeeds to the Assignor’s interest under the Assigned Agreement,
whether by foreclosure or otherwise, the Collateral Agent or such designee or assignee shall assume liability for all of the Assignor’s obligations under the Assigned Agreement; provided, however, that such liability shall not
include any liability for claims of the Obligor against the Assignor arising from the Assignor’s failure to perform during the period prior to the Collateral Agent’s or such designee’s or assignee’s succession to the
Assignor’s interest in and under the Assigned Agreement. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Collateral Agent, its designee or assignee nor any other party secured by the Security Documents shall be liable for
the performance or observance of any of the obligations or duties of the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement, including the performance of any cure of default permitted pursuant to paragraph (e) above, and the assignment of the Assigned Agreement
by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent or its designee or assignee pursuant to the Security Documents shall not give rise to any duties or obligations owing to the Obligor on the part of any of the parties secured by the Security Documents.

  
 (g) In the event that (i) the Assigned
Agreement is rejected by a trustee or debtor-in-possession in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving the Assignor or (ii) the Assigned Agreement is terminated as a result of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving the Assignor,
and if within 90 days after such rejection or termination, the Collateral Agent or its designee or assignee shall so request and shall certify in writing to the Obligor that it intends to perform the obligations of the Assignor as and to the extent
required under the Assigned Agreement, the Obligor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent or such designee or assignee a new agreement (“new Assigned Agreement”), (A) pursuant to which new Assigned Agreement the Obligor
shall agree to perform the obligations contemplated to be performed by the Obligor under the original Assigned Agreement and the Collateral Agent or such designee or assignee shall agree to perform the obligations contemplated to be performed by the

and the binding effect on, the Assignor) are in full force and effect. 
  
 (e) There is no action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority, arbitral tribunal or other body now pending or to the actual knowledge of the Obligor, threatened against the

validity, binding effect or enforceability hereof or of the Assigned Agreement or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

or obligation of the Assigned Agreement and no such default has occurred prior to the date hereof. To the actual knowledge of the Obligor, after giving effect to the assignment by the Assignor to the Collateral Agent of the Assigned Agreement
pursuant to the Security Documents, and after giving effect to the acknowledgment of and consent to such assignment by the Obligor (as constituted by this Consent and Agreement), there exists no event or condition that would constitute a default, or
that would, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, constitute a default under the Assigned Agreement. 
  
 (h) This Consent and Agreement and the Assigned Agreement, and any other agreement specifically contemplated herein or therein, constitute
and include all agreements entered into by the Obligor and Assignor relating to, and required for the consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Consent and Agreement and the Assigned Agreement.

Obligor to the Assignor under the Assigned Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, directly to the following account:
[            ] (or to such other person or entity and at such other address as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify in writing to the Obligor). The Assignor hereby
authorizes and directs the Obligor to make such payments as aforesaid and agrees that such payments shall satisfy the Obligor’s obligations to pay such amounts to the Assignor under the Assigned Agreements.

 With respect to the proceeds attributable to the insurance loss of all or any part of the Properties,
Improvements and/or Fixtures referred to in (viii) above, this Mortgage is a collateral assignment thereof pursuant to La. R.S. 9:5386, et seq., whether such proceeds or any of them now exist or arise in the future, and Mortgagor does hereby
irrevocably make, constitute and appoint Mortgagee and the agents of Mortgagee as the true and lawful mandataries and attorneys-in-fact of Mortgagor to carry out and enforce all of the proceeds hereby collaterally assigned as provided in the
Collateral Agency Agreement. The mandatary and attorney-in-fact designation set forth in the preceding sentence shall be coupled with an interest and may not be revoked by Mortgagor so long as this Mortgage remains in effect. Such proceeds shall
otherwise be included in the term “Mortgaged Property” for all purposes of this Mortgage. The collateral assignment herein made of the aforesaid proceeds shall not be construed as imposing upon Mortgagee any obligations with respect
thereto unless and until Mortgagee shall become the absolute owner thereof and Mortgagor shall have been wholly dispossessed thereof. 
  
 For purposes of this Mortgage, the term “Secured Obligations” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreement, but
also shall include, without limitation, all indebtedness, obligations, liabilities and agreements of any kind or character, arising out of documents or debt instruments intended to refinance the Loans, of Mortgagor to Mortgagee and/or any other
Secured Party (or trustee, agent or other secured party with respect to obligations intended to refinance the Loans), or any combination of Secured Parties, now existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect (including any participation or
interest of any Secured Party), acquired outright, conditionally or as collateral security from another (whether by purchase from another Person, merger or consolidation of a Secured Party with another Person to whom Mortgagor and/or Borrower is
obligated, or otherwise), absolute or contingent, joint, several or solidary, secured or unsecured, due or not, liquidated or unliquidated, arising by operation of law or otherwise, and of all agreements, documents and instruments evidencing any of
the foregoing or under which any of the foregoing may have been issued, created, assumed, secured or guaranteed, whether evidenced by promissory note, loan or credit agreement, reimbursement agreement, letter of credit, guaranty, pledge, mortgage,
assignment, other writing, open account or otherwise. 
  
 For
purposes of this Mortgage, the term “Financing Documents” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreement, but shall also include, without limitation, all other documents or instruments giving rise to Secured
Obligations, now existing or hereafter executed and delivered, and all amendments thereto and/or substitutions therefor. 
  
 This Mortgage secures the prompt payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, the payment of all amounts owing under
the Credit Agreement, this Mortgage and the other Financing Documents, and any amendments thereto and/or substitutions therefor, and any renewals, extensions and refinancings thereof, whether presently existing, now arising or incurred hereafter.
Mortgagor and Mortgagee acknowledge and agree that this Mortgage may secure Secured Obligations that have been or will be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time, one or more times, and that this Mortgage shall be effective, as to 

  


					
	 	  	- 5 -	  	EXHIBIT M
	 	  	 	  	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
all future advances, as of the date of execution and recordation hereof, it being intended that this Mortgage be a mortgage to secure present and future
obligations to the fullest extent permitted by La. Civ. Code art. 3298. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION OF THIS MORTGAGE TO THE CONTRARY, THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS THAT MAY BE OUTSTANDING AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME THAT THIS
MORTGAGE SECURES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A MORTGAGE AND AS AN ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS, INCLUDING ALL PRINCIPAL, INTEREST AND ANY EXPENSES OR ADDITIONAL SECURED OBLIGATIONS INCURRED BY THE MORTGAGEE AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS INCLUDED
WITHIN THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS IS ONE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,500,000,000.00). 
  
 Mortgagor and Mortgagee acknowledge that neither any promissory note or any other written evidence of indebtedness has been paraphed for identification
with this Mortgage.

notice of default by the Mortgagor thereunder, the Mortgagee may rely thereon and take any action as aforesaid to cure such default even though the existence of such default or the nature thereof be questioned or denied by the Mortgagor or by any
party on behalf of the Mortgagor. 
  
 (b) Release or
Forbearance. No release or forbearance of any of the Mortgagor’s obligations under any of the Leases, pursuant to the terms of any thereof or otherwise, shall release the Mortgagor from any of its obligations under this Mortgage.

  
 (c) No Confusion of Interests. Neither the ownership of
the Properties nor the leasehold estate created by the Leases shall be confused, but shall always remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of the aforesaid estates either in the lessor under the Leases or the Mortgagor under the
Leases or in a third party by purchase or otherwise, unless the Mortgagee shall, at its option, execute and record a document evidencing its intent that such estates be confused. If the Mortgagor acquires the ownership or any other estate, title or
interest in any of the Properties covered by any of the Leases, this Mortgage shall attach to, be a Lien upon and encumber the ownership or such other estate so acquired, and such ownership or other estate shall, without further assignment, mortgage
or conveyance, become and be subject to the Lien of this Mortgage. The Mortgagor shall notify the Mortgagee of any such acquisition by the Mortgagor and, on written request by the Mortgagee, shall cause to be executed and recorded all such other and
further assurances or other instruments in writing as may in the reasonable opinion of the Mortgagee be required to carry out the intent and meaning hereof. 
  
 (d) Renewals and Extensions. Unless the exercise of any option, now existing or hereafter created, to renew or extend the term of any of the Leases
would, in the Mortgagor’s reasonable business judgment, be inadvisable, the Mortgagor shall, at least ninety (90) days prior to the last day upon which the Mortgagor may validly exercise such option, (i) exercise such option in such manner as
will cause the term of each of the Leases to be effectively renewed or extended for the period provided by each such option and (ii) give immediate notice thereof to the Mortgagee, it being understood that in the event of the failure of the
Mortgagor to do so, the Mortgagee shall have, and is hereby granted, the irrevocable right to exercise any such option, either in its own name and behalf, or in the name and behalf of the Mortgagor, as the Mortgagee shall in its reasonable
discretion determine. 
  
 (e) Notifications of Changes in
Rent. The Mortgagor shall promptly notify the Mortgagee of any change in the rent or other charges payable under any of the Leases, except for changes made pursuant to the provisions of any such Lease.

 (f) Notifications Concerning Proceeds. In the event that any proceeds of insurance on any part of
the Mortgaged Property, or any proceeds from the Condemnation of any part of the Mortgaged Property, shall be deposited with any Person pursuant to the requirements of any of the Leases, the Mortgagor shall promptly notify the Mortgagee of the name
and address of the Person with whom such proceeds have been deposited and of the amount so deposited.

 ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS, ISSUES AND PROFITS 
  
 Section 2.1. Assignment of Rents, Issues and Profits. FOR THE PURPOSE
OF SECURING the Secured Obligations, up to a maximum amount outstanding at any one time, from time to time, equal to ONE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,500,000,000.00), the Mortgagor hereby assigns and transfers to the Mortgagee
all of the Mortgagor Leases, whether presently existing or hereafter arising, and all Rents due under each thereof or otherwise attributable to any thereof, and hereby gives to and confers upon the Mortgagee the right, power and authority to collect
all such Rents. The Mortgagor irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, at its option at any time and from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to demand, receive
and enforce payment, to give receipts, releases and satisfactions, and to sue, in the name of the Mortgagor or otherwise, for Rents and apply the same to the Secured Obligations as provided in paragraph (a) of Section 4.2; provided however,
that the Mortgagor shall have the right to collect Rents at any time prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default (but not more than one month in advance, except in the case of security deposits). 
  
 Section 2.2. Collection Upon Default. To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Mortgagee may, at any time and without notice, either in person, by agent or by a receiver or keeper appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the
Secured Obligations or the solvency of the Mortgagor, enter upon and take possession of the Properties, the Improvements and the Fixtures or any part of any thereof, in its own name, sue for or otherwise collect Rents, including, without limitation,
those past due and unpaid, and, apply the same, less reasonable costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, court costs and reasonable keeper or receiver fees and expenses, to the
payment of the Secured Obligations as provided in paragraph (a) of Section 4.2, and in such order as the Mortgagee may determine. The collection of Rents or the entering upon and taking possession of the Properties, the Improvements and the Fixtures
or any part of any thereof, or the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or notice thereof or invalidate any act done in response to such Event of Default or pursuant to notice thereof.

of the Fixtures that are consumed or worn out in ordinary usage, or which must be removed temporarily for the purpose of repair or improvement, all of which shall be promptly replaced by the Mortgagor, except as otherwise permitted by the Credit
Agreement, (ii) all covenants and obligations of the Mortgagor contained herein relating to the Mortgaged Property shall be deemed to apply to the Fixtures whether or not expressly referred to herein, and (iii) this Mortgage constitutes a security

 (A) sell the Mortgaged Property at a sale or sales held at
such place or places and time or times and upon such notice and otherwise in such manner as may be required by law, or, in the absence of any such requirement, as the Mortgagee may deem appropriate, and from time to time adjourn any such sale by
announcement at the time and place specified for such sale or for such adjourned sale without further notice, except such as may be required by law; 
  
 (B) proceed to protect and enforce its rights under this Mortgage, by suit for specific performance of any covenant contained herein or in any of the
other Financing Documents or in aid of the execution of any power granted herein or in the other Financing Documents, or for the foreclosure of this Mortgage (as a mortgage or otherwise) and the sale of the Mortgaged Property under the judgment or
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, or for the enforcement of any other right as the Mortgagee shall deem most effectual for such purpose, provided, that in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Mortgaged
Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a Lien on, and security interest in, the remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property; or 
  
 (C) exercise any or all of the remedies available to a secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limitation:

  
 (1) either personally or by means of a court appointed
receiver or keeper, take possession of all or any of the Fixtures and exclude therefrom the Mortgagor and all Persons claiming by, through or under the Mortgagor, and thereafter hold, store, use, operate, manage, maintain and control, make repairs,
replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and exercise all rights and powers of the Mortgagor in respect of the Fixtures or any part thereof; if the Mortgagee demands or attempts to take possession of the Fixtures in the exercise of
any rights hereunder, the Mortgagor shall promptly turn over and deliver complete possession thereof to the Mortgagee; 
  
 (2) without notice to or demand upon the Mortgagor, make such payments and do such acts as the Mortgagee may deem necessary to protect its security

	 	 	- 11 -	 	EXHIBIT M
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (4) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Fixtures, with or without having the Fixtures at the place
of sale, and upon such terms and in such manner as the Mortgagee may determine (and the Mortgagee or any Lender may be a purchaser at any such sale). 
  
 (b) Executory Process. For purposes of executory process under applicable Louisiana law, Mortgagor does hereby acknowledge the Secured Obligations,
CONFESS JUDGMENT thereon and consent that judgment be rendered and signed, whether during the court’s term or during vacation, in favor of the Mortgagee, for the full amount of the Secured Obligations, including, but not limited to, the Loans,
the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents, in principal, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees, together with all charges and expenses whatsoever owing pursuant to this Mortgage. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and in
addition to all of its rights, powers and remedies under this Mortgage and applicable law, Mortgagee may, at its option, cause all or any part of the Mortgaged Property to be seized and sold under executory process or under writ of fieri
facias issued in execution of an ordinary judgment obtained upon the Secured Obligations, without appraisement to the highest bidder, for cash or upon such terms as Mortgagee deems acceptable. Mortgagor hereby waives all and every appraisement
of the Mortgaged Property and waives and renounces the benefit of appraisement and the benefit of all laws relative to the appraisement of the Mortgaged Property seized and sold under executory or other legal process. Mortgagor agrees to waive, and
does hereby specifically waive: 
  
 (i) the benefit of
appraisement provided for in Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure, and all other laws conferring such benefits;

 (v) the benefit of the other provisions of Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723, Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure;

	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 (c) Appointment of Keeper. Pursuant to the authority contained in La. R.S. 9:5136 through
9:5140.2, as the same may hereafter be amended, Mortgagor and Mortgagee do hereby expressly designate Mortgagee or its designee to be keeper or receiver (a “Keeper”) for the benefit of Mortgagee or any assignee of Mortgagee, such
designation to take effect immediately upon any seizure of any of the Mortgaged Property under writ of executory process or under writ of sequestration or fieri facias as an incident to an action brought by Mortgagee. The Keeper shall be
entitled to a reasonable fee and to the reimbursement of all expenses incurred by it as Keeper, and the payment of such fees and expenses shall be secured by the mortgage, assignment, security interests and other Liens against the Mortgaged Property
granted in this Mortgage. 
  
 (d) Rents. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagor shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, pay monthly in advance to the Mortgagee, or to any receiver or Keeper appointed at the request of the Mortgagee to collect Rents, the fair
and reasonable rental value for the use and occupancy of the Properties, the Improvements and the Fixtures or of such part thereof as may be in the possession of the Mortgagor. Upon default in the payment thereof, the Mortgagor shall vacate and
surrender possession of the Properties, the Improvements and the Fixtures to the Mortgagee or such receiver or Keeper, and upon a failure so to, do may be evicted by summary proceedings. 
  
 (e) Sale. In any sale under any provision of this Mortgage or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court, the
Mortgaged Property, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may be sold in one or more parcels or as an entirety and in such order as the Mortgagee may elect, without regard to the right of the Mortgagor or any Person claiming under the Mortgagor to
the marshalling of assets. The purchaser at any such sale shall take title to the Mortgaged Property or the part thereof so sold free and discharged of the estate of the Mortgagor therein, the purchaser being hereby discharged from all liability to
see to the application of the purchase money. Any Person, including the Mortgagee or any Lender, may purchase at any such sale. Upon the completion of any such sale by virtue of this Section 4.1, the seizing sheriff or the Mortgagee, as applicable,
shall execute and deliver to the purchaser an appropriate instrument that shall effectively transfer all of the Mortgagor’s estate, right, title, interest, property, claim and demand in and to the Mortgaged Property or portion thereof so sold,
but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the mandatary and attorney-in-fact of the Mortgagor in its name and stead to make all appropriate transfers and deliveries of the Mortgaged
Property or any portion thereof so sold and, for that purpose, the Mortgagee may execute all appropriate instruments of transfer, and may substitute one or more Persons with like power, the Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that said
attorneys or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the Mortgagor shall ratify and confirm, or cause to be ratified and confirmed, any such sale or sales by executing and delivering, or by causing to be
executed and delivered, to the Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of the Mortgagee, for such purpose or otherwise requested by Mortgagee, and as may be designated in such request.
Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Mortgage, to the extent not prohibited by law, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, property, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of the Mortgagor in,
to and under the Mortgaged Property, or any portions thereof so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and 

  


					
	 	 	- 13 -	 	EXHIBIT M
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
in equity against the Mortgagor and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, by, through or under the Mortgagor.
The powers and agency herein granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable. 
  
 (f) Possession of Financing Documents Not Necessary. All rights of action under this Mortgage and the other Financing Documents may be enforced by the Mortgagee without the possession of the Financing Documents
and without the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto. 
  
 Section 4.2. Application of Proceeds. 
  
 (a) Application of Proceeds Generally. The proceeds of any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under a judgment, order or decree made in any action to foreclose or to enforce this Mortgage,
or of any monies held by the Mortgagee hereunder shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be applied: 
  
 (i) first to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, including the Mortgagee’s attorneys’ fees and disbursements and all
keeper’s fees and disbursements; 
  
 (ii) then to the
payment of all charges, expenses and advances incurred or made by the Mortgagee in order to protect the Lien and estate of this Mortgage or the security afforded hereby; 
  
 (iii) then to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, in accordance with the Collateral Agency Agreement; and after
payment in full of all Secured Obligations, any surplus remaining shall be paid to the Mortgagor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 
  

(b) Liability for Deficiencies. No sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be
deemed to relieve the Mortgagor of its obligations under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents except to the extent the proceeds thereof are applied to the payment of such obligations. If the proceeds of sale, collection or
other realization of or upon the Mortgaged Property are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Mortgagor shall remain liable for any deficiency. 
  
 Section 4.3. Right to Sue. The Mortgagee shall have the right from
time to time to sue for any sums required to be paid by the Mortgagor under the terms of this Mortgage or any of the other Financing Documents, as the same become due, and without prejudice to the right of the Mortgagee thereafter to bring any
action or proceeding of foreclosure or any other action upon the occurrence of any Event of Default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced. 
  
 Section 4.4. Powers of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee may at any time or from time to time in accordance with the Credit Agreement renew or extend
this Mortgage or (with the 

  


					
	 	 	- 14 -	 	EXHIBIT M
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
agreement of the Mortgagor) alter or modify the same in any way, or waive any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof, in whole or in part,
and may release any portion of the Mortgaged Property or any other security, and grant such extensions and indulgences in relation to the Secured Obligations, or release any Person liable therefor as the Mortgagee may determine without the consent
of any junior lien holder or encumbrancer, without any obligation to give notice of any kind thereto, without in any manner affecting the priority of the Lien and estate of this Mortgage on or in any part of the Mortgaged Property, and without
affecting the liability of any other Person liable for any of the Secured Obligations. 
  
 Section 4.5. Remedies Cumulative. 
  
 (a) Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Mortgagee is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative
and in addition to any other right or remedy under this Mortgage or under applicable law, whether now or hereafter existing; the failure of the Mortgagee to insist at any time upon the strict observance or performance of any of the provisions of
this Mortgage or to exercise any right or remedy provided for herein or under applicable law, shall not impair any such right or remedy nor be construed as a waiver or relinquishment thereof. 
  
 (b) Other Security. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
(i) the Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of any of the obligations of the Mortgagor and to exercise all rights and powers under this Mortgage or under any of the other Financing Documents or any applicable law now or
hereafter in force, notwithstanding that some or all of the Secured Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by mortgage, pledge, Lien, assignment or otherwise; (ii) neither the acceptance of this Mortgage nor its enforcement,
whether by court action or pursuant to the power of sale or other powers herein contained, shall prejudice or in any manner affect the Mortgagee’s right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by the Mortgagee, it
being stipulated that the Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce this Mortgage and any other security now or hereafter held by the Mortgagee in such order and manner as the Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (iii) every power or
remedy given by the Credit Agreement, this Mortgage or any of the other Financing Documents to the Mortgagee, or to which the Mortgagee is otherwise entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the Mortgagee may pursue inconsistent remedies. 
  
 Section 4.6. Waiver of Stay; Extension; Moratorium Laws; Equity of Redemption. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Mortgagor shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever
claim or take any benefit or advantage of any applicable present or future stay, extension or moratorium law, that may adversely affect the observance or performance of the provisions of this Mortgage; nor claim, take or insist upon any benefit or
advantage of any present or future law providing for the valuation or appraisal of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof prior to any sale or sales thereof that may be made under or by virtue of Section 4.1; and the Mortgagor, to the extent
that it lawfully may do so, hereby waives all benefits or advantages of any such law or laws. The Mortgagor for itself and all who may claim by, through or under it, hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any and all
rights and equities of redemption from sale under the power of sale created 

  


					
	 	 	- 15 -	 	EXHIBIT M
	 	 	 	 	TO CREDIT AGREEMENT








 
hereunder or from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of this Mortgage and (if an Event of Default shall have occurred) all notice or notices of
seizure, and all right to have the Mortgaged Property marshalled upon any foreclosure hereof. The Mortgagee shall not be obligated to pursue or exhaust its rights or remedies as against any other part of the Mortgaged Property and the Mortgagor
hereby waives any right or claim of right to have the Mortgagee proceed in any particular order. 
  
 ARTICLE 5 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 Section 5.1. Release by the Mortgagee. Upon the Termination Date, the Mortgagee, at the expense of Mortgagor, shall

instrument in form for recording.

of a mailed notice or notice sent by courier, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as set forth in the appearances section on the first page of this Mortgage. 
  
 Section 5.3. Amendments; Waivers; Etc. No provision of this Mortgage may be waived, modified or supplemented except
by an instrument in writing signed by the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee. Any modification, supplement or waiver shall be for such period and subject to such conditions as shall be specified in the written instrument effecting the same and shall be
binding upon the Mortgagor and each of the Secured Parties, and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. 
  
 Section 5.4. Successors and Assigns. This Mortgage applies to, inures to the benefit of and binds the Mortgagor and
the Mortgagee and their respective successors and assigns. 
  
 Section 5.5. Severability. If any term or provision of this Mortgage or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Mortgage, or the application of such
term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Mortgage shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by
law. If any portion of the Secured Obligations shall for any reason not be secured by a valid and enforceable Lien upon any part of the Mortgaged Property, then any payments made in respect of the Secured Obligations (whether voluntary or under
foreclosure or other enforcement action or procedure or otherwise) shall, for purposes of this

the Secured Obligations secured by the Lien of this Mortgage, and which Lien is on all of the Mortgaged Property.
