Credit Agreement


 


This CREDIT AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is made as of April 9, 2021 (the “Closing Date”) among Terra Income Fund 6, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), as borrower, certain funds and accounts managed by Eagle Point Credit Management
LLC (“Eagle Point”), as lenders (in such capacity, collectively, the “Lenders”) and Eagle Point
as the administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Agent”).


 


The Borrower has requested
that the Lenders provide certain term loans, and the Lenders, acting through the Agent, are willing to do so on the terms and conditions
set forth herein. In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

SECTION
2.   The LOANS


 


(a)              
Loans.


 


(i)                
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make to the Borrower, as
Borrower may request, on each Borrowing Date, a delayed draw term loan (each such loan, a “Loan”), in an amount up
to the unfunded amount of such Lender’s applicable Loan Commitment; provided that no Lender shall have an obligation to make
a Loan in excess of such Lender’s Loan Commitment. Each Lender’s Loan Commitment shall automatically be reduced immediately
upon and in the principal amount of each Loan made hereunder. If there exists any unfunded Loan Commitments on the Commitment Termination
Date, then on such date each Lender shall make, and the Borrower shall accept, a Loan equal to the amount of such Lender’s remaining
unfunded Loan Commitment such that after giving effect to the making of such Loans, the aggregate principal amount of Loans made by the
Lenders shall be equal to the amount of the Loan Commitments. Each Lender’s Loan Commitment shall terminate immediately and without
further action on the Commitment Termination Date after giving effect to the funding, if any, of such Lender’s Loan on such date.


 


(ii)             
The Borrower unconditionally promises to repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date if the Loan Commitments
shall be terminated in whole pursuant to this Agreement) the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date, together with
all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, all fees (including, without limitation, the Unused Commitment Fees, if any) and other Obligations
payable hereunder.


 


(iii)           
Any principal amounts repaid in respect of any Loan, in whole or in part, may not be reborrowed.


 


(b)              
Borrowings. The Borrower may request that the Lenders make a Loan by delivering to the Agent an executed irrevocable notice
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each, a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York
time) at least six (6) Business Days prior to the date of the requested Borrowing Date unless such notice period is waived by the Agent
in its sole discretion. The aggregate amount of each borrowing of a Loan by Borrower shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000
in the case of the initial borrowing and $500,000 in the case of each subsequent borrowing and an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess
of such amount (or, if less, the remaining unfunded Loan Commitments). Each Borrowing Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 2(b)
must specify the requested Borrowing Date and amount of requested borrowing; provided that the Lenders shall not be obligated to fund
a Loan more than twice each month unless such restriction is waived by the Agent in its sole discretion. If any such Borrowing Notice
is not delivered by the time referred to above, then it shall be deemed to have been given on the next Business Day.


 






    	 	-2-	 



     


    

 


(c)               Optional
Prepayments of Loans. The Borrower may voluntarily prepay any Loan, in whole or in part, together with all accrued but unpaid
interest thereon and, in the case of any voluntary prepayment made prior to the thirty (30) month anniversary of the Closing Date,
the Make Whole Premium, by irrevocable written notice to the Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) at least thirty (30)
days (but not more than sixty (60) days) prior to the proposed date of prepayment. Any such prepayment of a Loan shall be in a
principal amount of at least $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess of such amount (or, if less, the entire
principal amount thereof then outstanding). Prepayments in whole pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall not, in and of themselves,
constitute a termination of this Agreement by the Borrower.


 


(d)              
Mandatory Prepayments.


 


(i)                
If, at any time, the Asset Coverage Ratio as stated on the most recent Valuation Statement delivered to Agent in accordance with
Section 5(b)(ii) is less than 200%, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the date such Valuation Statement is required
to be delivered, repay the outstanding Loans until the Asset Coverage Ratio after such payments exceeds 200%.


 


(ii)             
The Borrower will give written notice to the Agent at least ten (10) days prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, which
notice shall (A) state the expected effective date of such Change of Control and (B) contain an offer to repay the Loans and all other
Obligations hereunder in full as of the effective date of such Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of a Change
of Control may state that the offer to repay the Loans in accordance with this Section 2(d)(ii) is conditioned upon the effectiveness
of the Change of Control, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the effective
date of such Change of Control) if such condition is not satisfied. Within five (5) days following the receipt of such notice, the Agent,
on behalf of the Lenders, shall notify the Borrower in writing whether the Lenders accept the offer of repayment of the Loans as set forth
herein and provide the Borrower with the Agent’s calculation of the repayment amount due under this Section 2(d)(ii) in an
amount equal to the sum of (x) the product of (1) 100%, times (2) the principal amount of the outstanding Loans, plus (y) all accrued
but unpaid interest on the principal amount of the outstanding Loans, which calculations shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In
the event the Lenders accept the Borrower’s offer to repay the Loans in accordance with this Section 2(d)(ii), the Borrower
shall so repay the Loans and all other Obligations in full in accordance with the Agent’s calculations on the effective date of
such Change of Control. In the event the Lenders reject the Borrower’s offer to repay the Loans in accordance with Section 2(d)(ii),
the Loans and all other Obligations shall remain outstanding and the Transaction Documents shall remain in full force and effect. Each
Lender’s determination to accept or reject the Borrower’s offer to repay the Loans as set forth herein shall be made in such
Lender’s sole discretion.


 






    	 	-3-	 



     


    

 


(e)               Incremental
Loan Commitments. Borrower may, by written notice to Agent (each, an “Incremental Loan Request”), request one
or more increases in the Loan Commitment (each, an “Incremental Loan Commitment” and the loans thereunder, each
an “Incremental Loan”) at any time; provided that no commitment of any Lender shall be increased without
the consent of such Lender in such Lender’s sole discretion and no Lender shall be required to participate in any Incremental
Loan. Each Incremental Loan Request shall set forth (x) the amount of the Incremental Loan Commitment being requested (which shall
be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof) and (y) the date on which such Incremental Loan is
requested to become effective (which, unless otherwise agreed by Agent and the Lenders providing such Incremental Loan, shall not be
less than six (6) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of any Incremental Loan Request (the “Incremental
Effective Date”)). Upon delivery of the applicable Incremental Loan Request to Agent, such Incremental Loan Commitment
shall be offered to all Lenders pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and Loan Commitments
held by each Lender (or in such other proportion as may be agreed by the Lenders and the Agent). The Agent shall have up to ten (10)
Business Days to deliver a response regarding the amount of the requested Incremental Loan that the Lenders will provide.  If
the existing Lenders fail to provide the full amount of the requested Incremental Loan, the Borrower may offer any portion of the
requested Incremental Loan that is not provided by the existing Lenders to new lenders which may join this Agreement, with all terms
and conditions to such Incremental Loans remaining unchanged with the possible exception of any mutually agreed amendments to the
interest rate and fees to be applicable to such Incremental Loans.


 


(i)                
Conditions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Incremental Loan shall become effective under
this Section 2(e) unless, after giving effect to such Incremental Loan:


 


(A)          no
Default or Event of Default shall exist or result from the incurrence of such Incremental Loan;


 


(B)          after
giving effect to the incurrence of any Incremental Loan, the Borrower is in pro forma compliance with the Financial Covenant;


 


(C)          all
representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication
of any materiality qualifier therein) both before and after giving effect to such Incremental Loan (except to the extent any representation
or warranty relates to an earlier date in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects
as of such earlier date); and


 


(D)          Agent shall have received a certificate duly executed by an officer of the Borrower, certifying as to the foregoing.


 


(ii)             
Required Amendments. The Agent, Lenders and Borrower agree that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Loan Commitment,
this Agreement shall be amended to the extent necessary to reflect the existence of such Incremental Loan Commitment. From and after
each Incremental Effective Date, the Incremental Loans and Incremental Loan Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2(e)
shall (A) constitute Loans and Loan Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents and (B) without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the security interests created by
the applicable Transaction Documents. The Borrower shall take any actions reasonably required by the Agent and the Lenders to ensure
and/or demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the applicable Transaction Documents continue to be perfected under
the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such Incremental Loans and Incremental Loan Commitments.


 






    	 	-4-	 



     


    

 






 


(f)               
Lender’s Obligations Several. All Loans shall be made by the Lenders proportionately to their respective applicable
Loan Commitments, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s
obligation to make the Loans hereunder.


 


(g)              
Accrual and Payment of Interest and Fees.


 


(i)            
Each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each day at a rate per annum equal to 5.625%; provided
that for each day that (A) the Borrower fails to cause to be maintained a Loan Rating as required pursuant to Section 5(o) or (B)
the Loan Rating is below Investment Grade, each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 6.625%. All accrued and unpaid interest
on the Loans shall be due and payable on the last day of the applicable Interest Period and at such other times as may be specified herein.


 


(ii)          
On the initial Borrowing Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders, as compensation for providing the Loan Commitments, a
fee in an amount equal to 2.50% of the Loan Commitments (i.e., $625,000), which fee shall take the form of original issue discount and
be net funded from the proceeds of the Loans funded on the initial Borrowing Date. Such fee will be in all respects fully earned, due
and payable on the initial Borrowing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.


 


(iii)           
The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders, as compensation for providing the Loan Commitments, the Unused Commitment Fee, which
fee shall accrue at all times from and after the Closing Date until the Commitment Termination Date, including at any time during which
one or more of the conditions in Section 3(b) is not met. Any accrued and unpaid Unused Commitment Fee shall be due and payable on
each Payment Date.


 


(iv)             Upon
the occurrence and during the continuation of a Specified Event of Default, the principal amount of the outstanding Loans and, to
the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any past due interest payments on the Loans, any unpaid prepayment premium and any fees or
other amounts owed hereunder, in each case whether at stated maturity, by notice of prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, shall
(unless waived in writing by the Lenders) bear interest (including, without limitation, interest, as provided in this Agreement,
accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any insolvency proceedings, whether or not such interest accrues or is
recoverable against the Borrower after the filing of such petition for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code or is an allowed claim in
such proceeding) at the Default Rate. Interest payable at the Default Rate in accordance with this Section 2(g)(iv) shall be
payable by the Borrower (x) in the case of any Event of Default other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8(h), upon
written demand from the Agent to the Borrower and (y) in the case of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8(h),
automatically and without further notice or action by any party. For the avoidance of doubt, payment or acceptance of the Default
Rate is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise
prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Agent or any Lender.


 






    	 	-5-	 



     


    

 


(h)              
Evidence of Indebtedness. Agent shall maintain, as agent for the Lenders, at Agent’s principal office, a register
for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the Loans owed to each Lender by the Borrower (the “Register”).
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice. Agent shall record in the Register the interest and the outstanding balance of the Loans, and each repayment or prepayment
in respect of the principal amount of and interest and other amounts with respect to the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive
and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or
any error in such recordation, shall not affect the principal outstanding amount of the Loans, or the Borrower’s Obligations in
respect thereto. No transfer of the Loans and/or any interests therein shall be effective until such transfer is recorded in the Register.
The Borrower hereby designates the entity serving as Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the
Register as provided in this Section 2(h).


 


(i)               
Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year
and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or
any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid.


 


(j)               
Payments Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments hereunder (including, but not limited to,
payments made pursuant to Sections 2(d) and (g)) shall be in Dollars and the Borrower shall make each payment hereunder not later than
4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified herein to each Lender’s account in accordance with payment instructions provided
by such Lender to the Borrower in writing from time to time in accordance with such Lender’s pro rata share of the Loans (which
pro rata share shall be provided by the Agent in writing from time to time). All payments received after 4:00 p.m. (New York time) shall
be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to
be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. If at any time insufficient funds are
received by and available to the Lenders to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, such
funds shall be applied, first, to pay interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto
in accordance with the amounts of interest, fees and other amounts then due to such parties and second, to reduce the outstanding Loans
ratably among the parties entitled thereto.


 


(k)             
No Set-off or Withholding. All payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Lenders (including for purposes of this
Section 2(k), any assignee, successor, or participant or an economic arrangement that is similar to a participation) hereunder shall
be made to the Lenders in full without condition or reduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.


 






    	 	-6-	 



     


    

 


(l)              
 Taxes


 


(i)             
Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction Document
shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined
in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment
by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding upon the basis of
the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (vi) below and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable
by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and
withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Law”
includes FATCA.


 


(ii)             
Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.


 


(iii)           
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 20 days after demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under
this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender
(with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(iv)            
Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 20 days after demand therefor, for
(i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent
for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to
such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under
any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under
this paragraph.


 






    	 	-7-	 



     


    

 


(v)            
 Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant
to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment (if any), a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory
to the Agent.


 


(vi)            
Status of Lenders.


 


(A)            
Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, each Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall
deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the
Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation
(other than such documentation set forth in Section 2(l)(vi)(B)(1), (2) and (4) below) shall not be required if in such Lender’s
reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or
would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.


 


(B)             
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,


 


(1)              
any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which the Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies
of IRS Form W-9 certifying that the Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


 


(2)              
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:


 


A.       in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to
payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable)
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such
tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E (as applicable)establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the
 “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;


 






    	 	-8-	 



     


    

 


B.         executed
copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


C.       in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x)
a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B)
of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or


 


D.       to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 or
Exhibit A-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that
if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest
exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-4 on behalf of
each such direct and indirect partner;


 


(3)            any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies
as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form
prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 






    	 	-9-	 



     


    

 


(4)              
if a payment made to the Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA
if the Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law
and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including
as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Lender
has complied with the Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely
for purposes of this clause (4), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


(C)             
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2(l) expires or becomes obsolete
or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its
legal inability to do so.


 


(vii)         
Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received
a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section  (including by the payment of additional amounts
pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
(including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party
the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (vii) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this paragraph (vii), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party
pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than
the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld
or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph
shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes
that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(viii)       
 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent
or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender, the termination of the Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.


 


(m)             
Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:


 


(i)              
the Unused Commitment Fee payable pursuant to Section 2(g)(iii) shall cease to accrue on the unused Loan Commitment of such Defaulting
Lender;


 


(ii)            
the Loan Commitments of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Lenders have taken or may take
any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9(b)); and


 


(iii)           
any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Defaulting Lender or the Agent for the account of such
Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times
as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent
hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in
respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent;
third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy
such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against
such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so
long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach
of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth
in Section 3(b) were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all applicable non-Defaulting
Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to
this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.


 






    	 	-11-	 



     


    

 


In the event that the Agent and
the Borrower agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then
the provisions of this Section 2(m) shall cease to apply to such Lender.


 


(n)              
Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment
of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata
share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
(for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as
shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount
of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:


 


(i)               
if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the
payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such
recovery, without interest; and 


 


(ii)             
the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x)
any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by
a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant.


 


The Borrower consents to the
foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant
to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Borrower and any
of its Affiliates, that no assurance can be given that any particular projections will be realized and that actual results during
the period or periods covered by such projections may differ from such projections and such differences may be material.

thereof and (iii) such failure has not had and would not be reasonably be expected to have during such 30-day period a Material Adverse

only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (x) to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive the
obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or (y) to amend the Financial Covenant, even if the effect of such amendment
would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or other Obligation or to reduce any fee payable hereunder);

or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;


 


provided, further,
that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties hereunder or under any other Transaction

In addition, notwithstanding
anything in this Section to the contrary, if the Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or
omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Transaction Documents, then the Agent and the Borrower shall be
permitted to amend such provision, and, in each case, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any
other party to any Transaction Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to the Agent within ten (10)
Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.


 


(c)              
Notices and Other Communications.


 


(i)                Unless
otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile
transmission and electronic mail) and delivered to such numbers or addresses set forth on the relevant signature blocks hereto or as
given from each party to the other in writing from time to time; provided that electronic mail may be used only to distribute

preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied
from any confirmation thereof.


 


(ii)              The
Borrower hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not
wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities, and who may be engaged in investment
and other market-related activities with respect to the Borrower’s securities. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use
commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the materials and information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower
hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) that may be distributed
to the Public Lenders and that (i) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC,”
which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by
marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Agent and the Lenders to treat
such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for
purposes of U.S. federal and state securities Laws.

(d)              
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Lenders or the Agent to exercise, and no delay by the Lenders or the Agent
in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights,
remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.


 


(e)              
Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the Lenders and the Agent for (i) all actual, reasonable and documented
(in summary form) fees, costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and other Transaction Documents executed and delivered on or prior to the Closing Date (including
background checks and other due diligence), whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to Lenders and the Agent, (ii) all actual, reasonable and documented
(in summary form) costs and expenses of the Agent incurred in connection with any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of
the provisions hereof and the other Transaction Documents (whether or not such transactions are consummated), and (iii) after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all actual, reasonable and documented (in summary form) costs and expenses of Agent
and the Lenders incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights of Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement
with respect to Borrower and the other Transaction Documents; provided that the Borrower’s obligations under this clause (iii) with
respect to legal costs and expenses shall be limited to the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel to the Agent and the Lenders
(including all such reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in
respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law). All such amounts shall
be payable (x) with respect to clause (i), on the Closing Date and (y) otherwise, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor
together with a reasonably detailed invoice.


 


(f)                Indemnification.
The Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Lenders, the Agent, their respective Affiliates and their respective directors,
officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses and disbursements (including all actual, reasonable and documented (in summary form) legal fees and expenses of one law
firm plus any local counsel deemed appropriate by such law firm) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by
any third party or by the Borrower of any kind or nature, which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any
such Indemnitee in connection with (i) the execution, delivery and performance by the parties thereto of their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and the
consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (other than with respect to legal fees and
disbursements incurred on or prior to the date hereof), or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding brought or threatened in writing whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or
by the Borrower, and regardless of whether such Indemnitee is designated a party thereto, relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, a Lender’s or the
Agent’s activities in connection herewith or therewith or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans hereunder; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee.
No Indemnitee or other party hereto shall have any liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages relating
to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether
before or after the date hereof).


 






    	 	-31-	 



     


    

 


(g)              
Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Lender, or any Lender
exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Lender in
its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law,
any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
set-off had not occurred.


 


(h)               Successors
and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders and the Agent, (ii) the Agent may not assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except to any Affiliates of any Lender or of the Agent or any Person
sponsored, administered, managed or financed by any Lender or the Agent or any Affiliate thereof, and (iii) no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (A) to the Agent, another Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender,
the Agent or any Person sponsored, administered, financed or managed by any Lender, the Agent or any Affiliate thereof or any other
Person (other than a natural person) approved by the Agent and, unless a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
at the time of such assignment, the Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (B) by way of
participation in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Loan
Commitment and/or the Loans), or (C) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under
this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be
null and void). The Borrower agrees that each such assignee or participant will be entitled to the benefits of Sections 9(f), (l)
and (v) to the same extent as if it were a Lender.


 






    	 	-32-	 



     


    

 



 


(i)            Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under
any other Transaction Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The indemnification
provisions of Section 9(f) will apply to any such sub-agent. The Agent will not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct
of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment
that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.


 


(j)            No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, expressed or implied, shall be
construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto or thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby
or thereby, and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby or thereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or by reason of this Agreement.


 


(k)           Increased
Cost. The Borrower shall reimburse or compensate each Lender, upon written demand, for all costs incurred, losses suffered or payments
made by such Lender which are applied or reasonably allocated by such Lender to the transactions contemplated herein (all as determined
by such Lender in its reasonable discretion) by reason of any and all future reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirements
against (or against any class of or change in or in the amount of) assets, liabilities or commitments of, or extensions of credit by,
such Lender or Change in Law or in the interpretation or application thereof after the date hereof; and compliance by such Lender with
any directive, or requirements from any regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law (including any Tax or increased
Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan hereunder or any change in the basis or rate of taxation of payments
to the Lender in respect thereof); provided that such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office
for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates,
if such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce any such amounts and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (and the Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment).


 


(l)            Confidentiality.
Each Lender and the Agent agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all information received from or an behalf of the Borrower
relating to the Borrower or its business (“Borrower Confidential Information”), and the Borrower agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of each of the Transaction Documents and all other information received from the Lenders or the Agent,
including all reports prepared by the Agent or the Lenders (“Lender Confidential Information” and, together with
Borrower Confidential Information, “Confidential Information”) except that the Borrower may disclose Lender
Confidential Information and the Lenders or the Agent may disclose Borrower Confidential Information (i) to its and its respective
Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (collectively, “Representatives”)
(it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature thereof and
instructed to keep the content thereof confidential and that such party shall be responsible for any breach or failure to comply
with this Section 9(l)(i) (or any instruction hereunder) by its Representatives); (ii) to the extent requested by any
regulatory or self-regulatory authority or required by Applicable Laws, or in the case of the Borrower, as determined in good
faith or on the advice of counsel to be necessary for compliance with Applicable Laws, or by any subpoena or similar legal process
or, with respect to a Lender, by any rating agency then rating the commercial paper notes issued by or on behalf of the Lender or
other debt obligations of the Lender or its Affiliates; (iii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit,
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (iv) in the case of the Lenders or the
Agent, subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those of this Section 9(l), to any actual or
prospective permitted assignee or participant in such Lender’s rights or obligations under this Agreement or any credit
insurance (or credit re-insurance) provider of such Lender; (v) with the consent of the Borrower with respect to the disclosure
of Borrower Confidential Information, and with the consent of the Lenders and the Agent with respect to the disclosure of Lender
Confidential Information; or (vi) to the extent such Confidential Information (A) is available to the disclosing Person on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the other Person, (B) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section 9(l), (C) becomes available to the disclosing Person on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the other
Person or (D) is developed by the receiving Person without reliance on Confidential Information. It is understood and agreed that
regulators having jurisdiction over the Agent or the Lenders shall have unrestricted access to all books, records, files and other
materials in the Agent’s or the Lenders’ possession, including any Borrower Confidential Information, and disclosure of
any Borrower Confidential Information to such persons solely for purposes of supervision or examination may occur without written
notice to or authorization from the Borrower.


 






    	 	-33-	 



     


    

 


(m)          Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice
being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, indebtedness or other obligation at any time owing by, the Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to the Lender hereunder or under any other Transaction Document,
now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable
deposit, indebtedness or obligation. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.


 


(n)          Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, the interest paid or agreed to
be paid under the Transaction Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law
(the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lenders shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lenders may, to
the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than
interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or
unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.


 


(o)          Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any signature delivered by a party by facsimile or electronic
transmission (including email transmission of a PDF image) shall be deemed to be an original signature hereto. This Agreement, together
with the other Transaction Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and
thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter.


(p)        Survival.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, (i) all representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Transaction Document
or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery
hereof and thereof and (ii) the provisions of Sections 9(f), 9(l), 9(m), 9(v) and 9(y) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.


 


(q)          Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) the legality,
validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall not be affected or
impaired thereby and (ii) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions
with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.
The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 


(r)        Governing Law. This Agreement and the other TRANSACTION Documents and any claim,
controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or any other TRANSACTION Document (except, as to any other TRANSACTION Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE
TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL
LAW.


 






    	 	-34-	 



     


    

 


(s)           Jurisdiction.
Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind
whatsoever, whether in law or equity, or whether in contract or tort or otherwise, against any other party hereto or any of their
respective Related Parties in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States
District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto
irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that any such action, litigation or
proceeding may be brought in any such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal
court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein or in any
other Transaction Document shall affect any right that the Agent or the Lenders may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any other
jurisdiction. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the
mailing of copies of such process to such other party hereto at its address set forth beneath its signature hereto. Each party
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.


 


(t)           WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY.


 


(u)          Judgment
Currency. If, under any Applicable Law and whether pursuant to a judgment being made or registered against the Borrower or for any
other reason, any payment under or in connection with this Agreement, is made or satisfied in a currency (the “Other Currency”)
other than Dollars then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into Dollars at the rate of exchange on the date of payment or,
if it is not practicable for the party entitled thereto (the “Payee”) to purchase Dollars with the Other Currency
on the date of payment, at the rate of exchange as soon thereafter as it is practicable for it to do so) actually received by the Payee
falls short of the amount due under the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, as a separate and
independent obligation, indemnify and hold harmless the Payee against the amount of such short-fall. For the purpose of this Section 9(u),
 “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Payee is able on the relevant date to purchase Dollars with the Other Currency
and shall take into account any premium and other costs of exchange.


 


(v)           Appointment as Agent; Limitation of Liability. Each Lender irrevocably appoints the Agent as its administrative agent and
collateral agent under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and authorizes the Agent or any Affiliate of the Agent to take
such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Transaction Documents, together
with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly
set forth in the Transaction Documents.




    	 	-35-
