Each Grantor and the First Lien Collateral Agent hereby acknowledge and agree   that (i) the Collateral shall not include Excluded Property and (ii) the Liens created hereby in the   Collateral are not, in and of themselves, to be construed as a grant of a fee instrument (as   opposed to a Lien) in any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks.   Section 5. Security for Obligations.  Subject, in the case of the First Lien   Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreements, to the Permitted First Lien Hedge Amount   thereunder, this Agreement secures, in the case of each Grantor, the payment of all Obligations   of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under the First Lien Documents, whether direct or   indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest,   fees, premiums, penalties, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or   otherwise (all such Obligations being the “First Lien Secured Obligations”).  Without limiting   the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures, as to each Grantor, the payment of all   amounts that constitute part of the First Lien Secured Obligations and would be owed by such   Grantor to any First Lien Secured Party under the First Lien Documents but for the fact that they   are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar   proceeding involving a Loan Party.   Section 6. Grantors Remain Liable.  Anything herein to the contrary   notwithstanding, (a) each Grantor shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements   included in such Grantor’s Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and   obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the   exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any   Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the   Collateral and (c) no First Lien Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under the   contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or any other   First Lien Secured Document, nor shall any First Lien Secured Party be obligated to perform any   of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce   any claim for payment assigned hereunder.   Section 7. Delivery and Control of Security Collateral.     (a) All certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security   Collateral shall be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent   pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be   accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form   and substance satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent. From and after the   occurrence of and during the continuance of a First Lien Event of Default, the First Lien   Collateral Agent shall, subject to the terms of such Security Collateral, have the right to   exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Security Collateral for   certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.   (b) With respect to any Security Collateral that constitutes an uncertificated   security, the relevant Grantor will cause the issuer thereof either (i) to register the First     

 

   10   Lien Collateral Agent as the registered owner of such security or (ii) to agree with such   Grantor and the First Lien Collateral Agent that such issuer will comply with instructions   with respect to such security originated by the First Lien Collateral Agent without further   consent of such Grantor, such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the   First Lien Collateral Agent (such agreement being an “Uncertificated Security Control   Agreement”).   (c) With respect to any Security Collateral that constitutes a security   entitlement with an aggregate value in excess of $2,500,000 at any time as to which the   financial institution acting as First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder is not the securities   intermediary, the relevant Grantor will cause the securities intermediary with respect to   such security entitlement either (i) to identify in its records the First Lien Collateral   Agent as the entitlement holder thereof or (ii) to agree with such Grantor and the First   Lien Collateral Agent that such securities intermediary will comply with entitlement   orders originated by the First Lien Collateral Agent without further consent of such   Grantor, such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the First Lien   Collateral Agent (a “Securities Account Control Agreement”).   (d) The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time in its   discretion and without notice to any Grantor, to transfer to or to register in the name of   the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Security   Collateral, subject only to the terms of the Security Deposit Agreement and the revocable   rights specified in Section 12(a).     (e) From and after the occurrence of and during the continuance of a First   Lien Event of Default, upon the request of the First Lien Collateral Agent, each Grantor   will notify each issuer of Security Collateral granted by it hereunder that such Security   Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereunder.   Section 8. Maintaining the Account Collateral.  Prior to the Discharge of First   Lien Obligations:   (a) Each Grantor will maintain deposit accounts and securities/deposit   accounts only with the Depositary in accordance with the terms of the Security Deposit   Agreement, with the financial institution acting as First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder   or with a bank (a “Pledged Account Bank”) that has agreed with such Grantor and the   First Lien Collateral Agent to comply with instructions originated by the First Lien   Collateral Agent directing the disposition of funds in such deposit account or   securities/deposit account without the further consent of such Grantor, such agreement to   be in form and substance satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent (a   “Securities/Deposit Account Control Agreement”) provided that no Securities/Deposit   Account Control Agreement shall be required in respect of any securities account or   deposit account to the extent the amount on deposit in, or credited to, such account does   not exceed $300,000.   (b) Each Grantor will instruct each Pledged Account Bank to transfer to the   Revenue Account, at the end of each Business Day, in same day funds, an amount equal     

 

   11   to the amount by which the credit balance of the Pledged Account at such Pledged   Account Bank exceeds $500,000.  If any Grantor shall fail to give any instructions to any   Pledged Account Bank, the First Lien Collateral Agent may do so without further notice   to any Grantor.   (c) Each Grantor may draw checks on, and otherwise transfer or withdraw   amounts from, the Pledged Accounts in such amounts as may be required in the ordinary   course of business.   (d) Upon any termination by a Grantor of any Pledged Account, such Grantor   will immediately transfer all funds and Property held in such terminated Pledged Account   to another Pledged Account or the Revenue Account.   (e) From and after the occurrence of and during the continuance of a First   Lien Event of Default, upon the request of the First Lien Collateral Agent, each Grantor   agrees to terminate any or all Pledged Accounts and Securities/Deposit Account Control   Agreements.   (f) The First Lien Collateral Agent may, at any time and without notice to, or   consent from, the Grantor, transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the Pledged   Accounts to satisfy the Grantor’s obligations under the First Lien Documents if any   payment default that is a First Lien Event of Default shall have occurred and be   continuing.   Section 9. Representations and Warranties.  Each Grantor represents and   warrants to the First Lien Collateral Agent as follows:   (a) Such Grantor’s exact legal name, location, chief executive office, type of   organization, jurisdiction of organization and organizational identification number is set   forth in Schedule III hereto.   (b) All of the material Equipment and material Inventory of such Grantor   (other than material Equipment in transit or in the possession of third parties in the   ordinary course of business) are located at the places specified therefor in Schedule IV   hereto.

(d) If such Grantor is an issuer of Security Collateral, such Grantor confirms   that it has received notice of the security interest granted hereunder.   (e) The Initial Pledged Equity pledged by such Grantor constitutes the   percentage of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the issuers thereof indicated   on Schedule I hereto.  The Initial Pledged Debt constitutes all of the outstanding

Section 10. Further Assurances.     (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such   Grantor, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver, or otherwise authenticate, all   further instruments and documents, and take all further action that may be necessary, or   that the First Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and   protect any pledge or security interest granted or purported to be granted by such Grantor   hereunder or to enable the First Lien Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights   and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor.  Without limiting   the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor will promptly with respect to Collateral of   such Grantor:  (i) if any such Collateral shall be evidenced by a promissory note or other   instrument or chattel paper having a stated value in excess of $300,000 individually or   $2,000,000 in the aggregate, deliver and pledge to the First Lien Collateral Agent   hereunder such note or instrument or chattel paper duly indorsed and accompanied by   duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance   satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent; (ii) file such financing or continuation   statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be   necessary, or as the First Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to   perfect and preserve the security interest granted or purported to be granted by such   Grantor hereunder, and the First Lien Collateral Agent hereby authorizes such Grantor to   make such filings; and (iii) deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent evidence that all   other actions that the First Lien Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary in order   to perfect and protect the security interest granted or purported to be granted by such   Grantor under this Agreement has been taken.

A photocopy   or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement where   permitted by law.  Each Grantor ratifies its authorization for the First Lien Collateral   Agent to have filed such financing statements, continuation statements or amendments   filed prior to the date hereof.     

 

   13   Section 11. Post-Closing Changes; Collections on Assigned Agreements,   Receivables and Related Contracts.    (a) No Grantor will change its name, type of organization, jurisdiction of   organization, organizational identification number or location from those set forth in   Section 9(a) of this Agreement without first giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice   to the First Lien Collateral Agent and taking all action reasonably requested by the First   Lien Collateral Agent for the purpose of perfecting or protecting the security interest   granted by this Agreement.  Each Grantor will hold and preserve its records relating to   the Collateral, including, without limitation, the Assigned Agreements and Related   Contracts, and will permit representatives of the First Lien Collateral Agent at any time   upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours to inspect and make abstracts   from such records and other documents.  If any Grantor does not have an organizational   identification number and later obtains one, it will forthwith notify the First Lien   Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number.   (b) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (b), each Grantor will   continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due such Grantor   under the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts.  In connection with   such collections, such Grantor may take such action as such Grantor may deem necessary   or advisable to enforce collection of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related   Contracts; provided, however, that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the right,   upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a First Lien Event of Default and   upon written notice to such Grantor of its intention to do so, to notify the Obligors under   any Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts of the assignment of such   Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts to the First Lien Collateral   Agent and to direct such Obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due   to such Grantor thereunder directly to the First Lien Collateral Agent and, upon such   notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such   Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, to adjust, settle or   compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent   as such Grantor might have done, and to otherwise exercise all rights with respect to such   Assigned Agreements, Receivables and Related Contracts, including, without limitation,   those set forth set forth in Section 9-607 of the UCC.  After receipt by any Grantor of the   notice from the First Lien Collateral Agent referred to in the proviso to the preceding   sentence, (i) all amounts and proceeds (including, without limitation, instruments)   received by such Grantor in respect of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables and   Related Contracts of such Grantor shall be received in trust for the benefit of the First   Lien Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor   and shall be forthwith paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent in the same form as so   received (with any necessary indorsement) to be deposited in the Revenue Account for   application in accordance with the Security Deposit Agreement and (ii) such Grantor will   not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable or amount due   on any Assigned Agreement or Related Contract, release wholly or partly any Obligor   thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon.  No Grantor will consent to the   subordination of its right to payment under any of the Assigned Agreements, Receivables     

 

   14   and Related Contracts to any other indebtedness or obligations of the Obligor thereof   except as could not be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.   Section 12. Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc.  (a)  So long as no First Lien Event   of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and until such time as such Grantor has   received notice from the First Lien Collateral Agent directing such Grantor to cease exercising   the rights set out in this Section 12(a):   (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and   other consensual rights pertaining to the Security Collateral of such Grantor or   any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement   or the other First Lien Documents.   (ii) Each Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all   dividends, interest and other distributions paid in respect of the Security Collateral   of such Grantor if and to the extent that the payment thereof is not otherwise   prohibited by the terms of the First Lien Documents; provided, however, that any   and all   (A) dividends, interest and other distributions paid or payable   other than in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property   received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange   for, any Security Collateral shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the   First Lien Collateral Agent to hold as, Security Collateral and shall, if   received by such Grantor, be received in trust for the benefit of the First   Lien Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of   such Grantor and be forthwith delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent   as Security Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary   indorsement),   (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in   respect of any Security Collateral in connection with a partial or total   liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital,   capital surplus or paid in surplus shall be deposited in the Revenue   Account or such other account as provided for in the Security Deposit   Agreement, and   (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in respect of   principal of, or in redemption of, or in exchange for, any Security   Collateral shall be deposited in the Revenue Account or such other   account as provided for in the Security Deposit Agreement.   (iii) The First Lien Collateral Agent will execute and deliver (or cause   to be executed and delivered) to each Grantor all such proxies and other   instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling   such Grantor to exercise the voting and other rights that it is entitled to exercise     

 

   15   pursuant to paragraph (i) above and to receive the dividends or interest payments   that it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (ii) above.   (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a First Lien Event of   Default:   (i) All rights of each Grantor (A) to exercise or refrain from   exercising the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be   entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 12(a)(i) shall, upon notice to such Grantor   by the First Lien Collateral Agent, cease and (B) to receive the dividends, interest   and other distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain   pursuant to Section 12(a)(ii) shall automatically cease, and all such rights shall   thereupon become vested in the First Lien Collateral Agent, which shall   thereupon have the sole right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting   and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Security Collateral such   dividends, interest and other distributions.   (ii) All dividends, interest and other distributions that are received by   any Grantor contrary to the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 12(b) shall   be received in trust for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent, shall be   segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over to   the First Lien Collateral Agent as Security Collateral in the same form as so   received (with any necessary indorsement).   Section 13. As to the Assigned Agreements.  (a)  Each Grantor hereby   consents on its behalf to the assignment and pledge to the First Lien Collateral Agent for benefit   of the First Lien Secured Parties of each Assigned Agreement to which it is a party by any other   Grantor hereunder.   (b) Each Grantor agrees, and has effectively so instructed each other party to   each Assigned Agreement to which it is a party, that all payments due or to become due   under or in connection with such Assigned Agreement will be made directly to the   Revenue Account.   Section 14. As to Letter-of-Credit Rights.  (a)  Each Grantor, by granting a   security interest in its Receivables consisting of letter-of-credit rights to the First Lien Collateral   Agent, intends to (and hereby does) assign to the First Lien Collateral Agent its rights (including   its contingent rights) to the proceeds of all Related Contracts consisting of letters of credit of   which it is or hereafter becomes a beneficiary or assignee.  Each Grantor will promptly use its   commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer of each letter of credit with a face amount   greater than $2,000,000 and each nominated person (if any) with respect thereto to consent to   such assignment of the proceeds thereof pursuant to a consent in form and substance reasonably   satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent and deliver written evidence of such consent to the   First Lien Collateral Agent.   (b) Upon the occurrence of a First Lien Event of Default, each Grantor will,   promptly upon request by the First Lien Collateral Agent (i) notify (and such Grantor     

 

   16   hereby authorizes the First Lien Collateral Agent to notify) the issuer and each nominated   person with respect to each of the Related Contracts consisting of letters of credit that the   proceeds thereof have been assigned to the First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder and any   payments due or to become due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the First Lien   Collateral Agent or its designee and (ii) arrange for the First Lien Collateral Agent to   become the transferee beneficiary of letter of credit.   Section 15. First Lien Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney in Fact.  Each   Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent such Grantor’s attorney in   fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or   otherwise, from time to time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a First Lien   Event of Default, in the First Lien Collateral Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute   any instrument that the First Lien Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to   accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation:   (a) to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give   acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of   the Collateral,   (b) to receive, indorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents   and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a), and   (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the   First Lien Collateral Agent may deem necessary for the collection of any of the Collateral   or otherwise to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions of any Assigned   Agreement or the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent with respect to any of the   Collateral.   Section 16. First Lien Collateral Agent May Perform.  If any Grantor fails to   perform any agreement contained herein, the First Lien Collateral Agent may, but without any   obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement,   and the expenses of the First Lien Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be   payable by such Grantor under Section 7.10 of the Intercreditor Agreement.   Section 17. The First Lien Collateral Agent’s Duties.  The powers conferred on   the First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the First Lien Secured Parties’   interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.    Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys   actually received by it hereunder, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any   Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges,   maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any First Lien   Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any   necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any   Collateral.  The First Lien Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in   the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded   treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property.     

 

   17   Section 18. Remedies.  If any First Lien Event of Default shall have occurred   and be continuing:   (a) The First Lien Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral,   in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it,   all the rights and remedies of a first lien secured party upon default under the UCC   (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may:  (i) require each   Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of   the First Lien Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed   by the First Lien Collateral Agent and make it available to the First Lien Collateral Agent   at a place and time to be designated by the First Lien Collateral Agent that is reasonably   convenient to both parties; (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the   Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the   First Lien Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future   delivery, and upon such other terms as the First Lien Collateral Agent may deem   commercially reasonable; (iii) occupy any premises owned or leased by any of the   Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable   period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without   obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation; and (iv) exercise any and all   rights and remedies of any of the Grantors under or in connection with the Collateral, or   otherwise in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (A) any and all rights   of such Grantor to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or   performance of any provision of, the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related   Contracts and the other Collateral, (B) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all   funds with respect to the Account Collateral and (C) exercise all other rights and   remedies with respect to the Assigned Agreements, the Receivables, the Related   Contracts and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section   9-607 of the UCC.  Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required   by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale   or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable   notification.  The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of   Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The First Lien Collateral Agent   may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time   and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time   and place to which it was so adjourned.   (b) Any cash held by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent and all   cash proceeds received by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent in respect of   any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral   may, in the discretion of the First Lien Collateral Agent, be held by the First Lien   Collateral Agent as collateral and shall be applied by the First Lien Collateral Agent in   accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.   (c) The First Lien Collateral Agent may, without notice to any Grantor except   as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set off and otherwise   apply all or any part of the First Lien Secured Obligations against any funds held with   respect to the Account Collateral or in any other deposit account.     

 

   18   (d) The First Lien Collateral Agent may send to each bank, securities   intermediary or issuer party to any Securities/Deposit Account Control Agreement,   Securities Account Control Agreement or Uncertificated Security Control Agreement a   “Notice of Exclusive Control” as defined in and under such Agreement.   (e) In the event of any sale or other disposition of any of the Intellectual   Property Collateral of any Grantor, the goodwill symbolized by any Trademarks subject   to such sale or other disposition shall be included therein, and such Grantor shall supply   to the First Lien Collateral Agent or its designee such Grantor’s know-how and expertise,   and documents and things relating to any Intellectual Property Collateral subject to such   sale or other disposition, and such Grantor’s customer lists and other records and   documents relating to such Intellectual Property Collateral and to the manufacture,   distribution, advertising and sale of products and services of such Grantor.   Section 19. Amendments; Waivers; Etc.  (a)  No amendment or waiver of any   provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in   any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the First Lien Collateral   Agent and each Grantor, in the case of any amendment, and then such waiver or consent shall be   effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No failure on   the part of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to exercise, and   no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single   or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise   of any other right.   (b) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Grantors and   the First Lien Collateral Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) amend or   supplement this Agreement or the Collateral Documents without the consent of any First   Lien Secured Party:  (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to make any   change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Second Lien Secured   Parties; or (iii) to make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral permitted or required   by this Agreement or any of the Collateral Documents or any release of any Collateral   that is otherwise permitted under the terms of this Agreement and the Financing   Documents.

All notices and other communications provided for   hereunder shall be either (i) in writing (including telecopier communication) and mailed,   telecopied or otherwise delivered or (ii) by electronic mail (if electronic mail addresses are   designated as provided below) confirmed immediately in writing, in the case of the Borrower or   the First Lien Collateral Agent, addressed to it at its address specified in the Intercreditor   Agreement and, in the case of each Grantor other than the Borrower, addressed to it at its address   set forth opposite such Grantor’s name on the signature pages hereto; or, as to any party, at such   other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties.  All   such notices and other communications shall, when mailed, telecopied, sent by electronic mail or   otherwise, be effective when deposited in the mails, telecopied, sent by electronic mail and   confirmed in writing, or otherwise delivered (or confirmed by a signed receipt), respectively,   addressed as aforesaid; except that notices and other communications to the First Lien Collateral   Agent shall not be effective until received by the First Lien Collateral Agent.  Delivery by     

 

   19   telecopier of an executed counterpart of any amendment or waiver of any provision of this   Agreement or Schedule hereto shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart   thereof.   Section 21. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under the First Lien   Credit Agreement.  This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral   and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the of the Discharge of First Lien Obligations,   (b) be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure, together with the   rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the First Lien   Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

Section 22. Intercreditor Agreement Controls.  In the event of any conflict   between the provisions set forth in this Agreement and those set forth in the Intercreditor   Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall supersede and control the terms   and provisions of this Agreement.  In the event the First Lien Collateral Agent decides, or is   required, to take any action hereunder, it shall take such action only in accordance with the terms   and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.   Section 23. The Mortgages.  In the event that any of the Collateral hereunder is   also subject to a valid and enforceable Lien under the terms of any First Lien Mortgage and the   terms of such First Lien Mortgage are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, then, with   respect to such Collateral, the terms of such First Lien Mortgage shall be controlling in the case   of fixtures and real estate leases, letting and licenses of, and contract and agreements relating to   the lease of, real property, and the terms of this Agreement shall be controlling in the case of all   other Collateral.   Section 24. Execution in Counterparts.

(b) Notwithstanding (i) the date, time, method, manner or order of grant,   attachment or perfection of (A) any Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations granted on the   Collateral or (B) any Liens securing the First Lien Obligations granted on the Collateral, (ii)   anything contained in any filing or agreement to which any Agent or other Secured Party (either   individually or collectively) or in the case of any Agent, for its own behalf or on behalf of any of   the Secured Parties, now or hereafter may be a party, (iii) the perfection of or avoidability of   such Liens or claims securing the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations, as the   case may be, (iv) any provision of the UCC, (v) any other applicable law or any provision set   forth in the Second Lien Documents, (vi) any defect or deficiencies in, or failure to perfect, the   Liens securing the First Lien Obligations or the Second Lien Obligations or (vii) any other   circumstances whatsoever, in each case, each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of   itself and each Second Lien Secured Party) and each Second Lien Secured Party hereby agrees   that:     

 

    23   (1) any Lien on the Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations now or   hereafter held by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of the First Lien   Secured Parties or any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by   grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be senior in all   respects and prior to any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations;   and   (2) any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations now or   hereafter held by or on behalf of, or created for the benefit of the Second Lien Collateral   Agent or any of the Second Lien Secured Parties or any agent or trustee therefor,   regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law,   subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the   Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations. All Liens on the Collateral securing any   First Lien Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on   the Collateral securing any Second Lien Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such   Liens securing any First Lien Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing any other   obligation of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person.   2.2 Prohibition on Contesting Liens.  Each of the First Lien Collateral Agent   (on behalf of itself and each First Lien Secured Party), the First Lien Administrative Agent (on   behalf of itself and each First Lien Lender Party), each First Lien Secured Party, the Second Lien   Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and each Second Lien Secured Party) and each Second Lien   Secured Party agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other   Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding),   the priority, validity, perfection or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the   First Lien Secured Parties in the First Lien Collateral or, by or on behalf of any of the Second   Lien Secured Parties in the Second Lien Collateral, as the case may be, or the provisions of this   Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the   rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt Representative or any First   Lien Secured Party to enforce this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement   relating to the priority of the Liens securing the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien   Obligations as provided in Sections 2.1 and 3.1.   2.3 No New Liens.  (a)  So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has   not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by   or against the Borrower or any Guarantor, the parties hereto agree that no Loan Party shall:   (i) grant or permit any additional Liens on any Property to secure any Second   Lien Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such Property to   secure the First Lien Obligations; or   (ii) grant or permit any additional Liens on any Property to secure any of the   First Lien Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such   Property to secure the Second Lien Obligations.   To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting   any other rights and remedies available to the First Lien Collateral Agent and/or the First Lien     

 

    24   Secured Parties, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien   Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party agrees that any amounts received by or   distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this   Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2.   2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements.  The parties hereto agree that it is their   intention that the First Lien Collateral and the Second Lien Collateral be identical. In furtherance   of the foregoing and of Section 9.10, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of   this Agreement:   (a) upon request by the First Lien Collateral Agent, any Secured Debt   Representative, any First Lien Secured Party or any Second Lien Secured Party, to   cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time   to time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Lien Collateral and   the Second Lien Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon   and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Lien Documents and   the Second Lien Documents; and   (b) that the documents, agreements and instruments creating or evidencing the   Liens on the First Lien Collateral and the Liens on the Second Lien Collateral and the   First Lien Guaranties and the Second Lien Guaranties shall be in all material respects the   same forms of documents other than with respect to the first lien or second lien nature of   the Obligations thereunder.   SECTION 3. Enforcement.   3.1 Exercise of Remedies.  (a)  Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations   has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by   or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of   itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties) and each other Second Lien Secured Party:   (i) will not exercise or seek to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to   any Collateral (including the exercise of any right of setoff (but subject to Section 5.8(a))   or any right under any lockbox agreement, account control agreement, landlord waiver or   bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second Lien Collateral   Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or any Second Lien Secured Party   is a party or which runs for the benefit of the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of   the Second Lien Secured Parties) or any Second Lien Secured Party) or institute any   action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any action of   foreclosure);   (ii) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action   brought by the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt Representative or   any First Lien Secured Party or any other exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent, any   First Lien Secured Debt Representative or any First Lien Secured Party of any rights and   remedies relating to the Collateral under the First Lien Documents or otherwise;     

 

    25   (iii) will not object to (and waives any and all claims with respect to) the   forbearance by the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt   Representative or any First Lien Secured Party from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure   proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies relating to the   Collateral;   (iv) will not oppose or otherwise contest any claim by the First Lien Collateral   Agent (on behalf of itself or the First Lien Secured Parties), the First Lien Administrative   Agent (on behalf of itself or any First Lien Lender Party),  or any First Lien Secured   Party; and   (v) will not challenge the validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of the   Liens held by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any First Lien Secured Party;   provided, that in the case of clauses (i) through (v), the Liens granted to secure the Second Lien   Obligations shall attach to any proceeds resulting from actions taken by the First Lien Collateral   Agent or any First Lien Secured Party in accordance with this Agreement subject to the relative   priorities described in Section 2.1.   (b) (i)  Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, whether or   not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower   or any Guarantor, subject to Section 6.2, the First Lien Collateral Agent, at the written direction   of the Required First Lien Secured Parties, shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights,   exercise remedies (including set-off (but subject to Section 5.8(a) and the right to credit bid the   First Lien Obligations) and make determinations regarding the release, sale, disposition or   restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the   Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party (or any Second Lien Secured   Debt Representative in respect thereof); provided that the Lien securing the Second Lien   Obligations shall remain on the proceeds of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the   relative priorities described in Section 2.1). In exercising rights and remedies with respect to the   Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent, at the written direction of the Required First Lien   Secured Parties, may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Collateral Documents and exercise   remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise   of their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of the First Lien   Collateral Agent (or any other agent appointed by the Required First Lien Secured Parties) to sell   or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure as set forth in the First Lien Collateral   Documents, to incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the   rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and the First Lien Collateral Documents   and of a secured creditor under the Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.   (ii) After the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, whether or not any   Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower or any   Guarantor, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, at the written direction of the Required Second   Lien Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights, exercise remedies (including   set-off (but subject to Section 5.8(a)) and the right to credit bid the Second Lien Obligations and   make determinations regarding the release, sale, disposition or restrictions with respect to the   Collateral.

Such exercise of   remedies shall include the rights of the Second Lien Collateral Agent (or any other agent   appointed by the Required Second Lien Secured Parties) to sell or otherwise dispose of   Collateral upon foreclosure as set forth in the Second Lien Collateral Documents, to incur   expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all of the rights and   remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and the Second Lien Collateral Documents and of   a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

(d) Subject to Sections 3.1(g) and 6.3(b):    (i) the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien   Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party each agrees not to take any action   that would hinder any exercise of remedies under the First Lien Documents or is   otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other   disposition of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;   (ii) the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien   Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party each hereby waives any and all   rights it may have as a second lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which   the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt Representative or the First   Lien Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the First Lien Obligations or the Liens   securing the First Lien Obligations granted in any of the First Lien Collateral undertaken   in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by   or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt   Representative or the First Lien Secured Parties is adverse to the interest of the Second   Lien Secured Parties; and   (iii) the Second Lien Collateral Agent  (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien   Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party each hereby acknowledges and   agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Lien   Documents (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights

(e) Except as specifically set forth in Section 3.1(d), the Second Lien   Collateral Agent, each Second Lien Secured Debt Representative and the Second Lien Secured   Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Borrower or any   Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Documents and applicable law;   provided that, in the event that any Second Lien Secured Party becomes a judgment Lien creditor   in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with   respect to the Second Lien Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this   Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Lien Obligations) as the other Liens   securing the Second Lien Obligations are subject to this Agreement.   (f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Lien   Secured Debt Representative or any Second Lien Secured Party of the required payments of   interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Lien Obligations so long as   such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Second Lien Collateral   Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or any other Second Lien Secured Party of   rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off (but subject to Section 5.8(a)) or   enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any   Second Lien Secured Debt Representative and each Second Lien Secured Party may:   (i) file a claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien   Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced   by or against the Borrower or any Guarantor;    (ii) take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the   Collateral securing the First Lien Obligations, or the rights of the First Lien Collateral   Agent or the First Lien Secured Parties to exercise remedies in respect thereof) in order to   create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral;   (iii) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any   motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to   or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Lien Secured Parties,   including any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the   terms of this Agreement;   (iv) file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights   or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Loan Parties arising under any   Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not   inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; and     

 

    28   (v) vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other   filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with   the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Lien Obligations and the   Collateral.   3.2 Enforcement of Liens.

    33   fourth, on a pro rata basis, to the payment, without duplication, of (a) all principal   and other amounts then due and payable in respect of the First Lien Obligations   (including cash collateralization (at 103% of the Available Amount thereof) of all   outstanding Letters of Credit issued under the First Lien Credit Agreement (such cash   collateralization to be in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Administrative   Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks)) under any First Lien Loan Document, and   (b) subject to the Maximum First Lien Amount in respect of any First Lien Commodity   Hedge and Power Sale Agreement and Section 4.4, the payment of all Ordinary Course   Settlement Payments and Termination Payments (other than Interest Expense) then due   and payable to any First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty under any First Lien   Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement;   fifth, on a pro rata basis and subject to Section 4.4, to the payment of any Interest   Expense constituting Permitted Second Lien Hedge Amounts owed to such Second Lien   Commodity Hedge Counterparty under any Second Lien Commodity Hedge and Power   Sale Agreement, in each case with interest at the rates specified in the applicable Second   Lien Document in respect of overdue payments;   sixth, on a pro rata basis and subject to Section 4.4, to the payment, without   duplication, of Permitted Second Lien Hedge Amounts (other than Interest Expense) in   respect of any Ordinary Course Settlement Payments or Termination Payments then due   and payable to any Second Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty under any Second Lien   Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement; and   last, the balance, if any, after all of the First Lien Obligations and Second Lien   Obligations have been paid in full in cash, to the Loan Parties or as otherwise required by   applicable law.   Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver to the   Second Lien Collateral Agent any Collateral and proceeds of Collateral held by it in the same   form as received, with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may   otherwise direct, to be applied by the Second Lien Collateral Agent to the Second Lien   Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Collateral Documents.   4.2 Payments Over.  So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has   not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by   or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any Collateral or proceeds thereof (including   assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3) received by   the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party in connection with the   exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off (but subject to Section 5.8(a)) relating to the   Collateral in contravention of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith   paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties in the   same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction   may otherwise direct; provided that this Section 4.2 shall not limit any First Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty’s right to recoup, set off, net or off-set amounts to the extent permitted   under the applicable First Lien Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement. The First Lien   Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second     

 

    34   Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party. This authorization is coupled with an   interest and is irrevocable until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations.   4.3 Debt Balances.  (a)  Upon the written request of any Collateral Agent,   each Secured Debt Representative shall promptly (and, in any event, within five Business Days)   give such Collateral Agent written notice of the aggregate amount of the Obligations then   outstanding and owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the Secured Parties   represented by such Secured Debt Representative under the applicable Financing Documents and   any other information that such Collateral Agent may reasonably request, including, without   limitation, Outstanding Amounts and Eligible Hedge Amounts for the purpose of permitting a   Collateral Agent to determine the Required First Lien Secured Parties and the Required Second   Lien Secured Parties.   (b) Without limiting the foregoing, upon receipt of any of the monies referred   to in Section 4.1 above, the Collateral Agent receiving such monies shall promptly provide   notice to each Secured Debt Representative of the receipt of such monies. Within 10 Business   Days of the receipt of such notice, each Secured Debt Representative shall give such Collateral   Agent written certification by an authorized officer or representative thereof of the aggregate   amount of the Obligations then outstanding owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the   Secured Parties represented by such Secured Debt Representative under the applicable Financing   Documents to be certified to as presently due and owing (and, promptly upon receipt thereof,   such Collateral Agent shall provide a copy of each such certification to each other Secured Debt   Representative). Unless otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction or each Secured   Debt Representative, the applicable Collateral Agent shall use the information provided for in   such notices as the basis for applying such monies in accordance with Section 4.1 above.   4.4 Termination Payments.  If following the occurrence of an Early   Termination Date under any Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement, any Loan   Party shall fail to pay any of the Obligations owing under such Secured Commodity Hedge and   Power Sale Agreements as and when required thereunder, then each First Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty and Second Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty agrees that to the extent   it seeks to satisfy any such Obligations, such Commodity Hedge Counterparty shall first proceed   to satisfy such Obligations with, subject to the occurrence of any Other Credit Support   Exception, the proceeds of any Other Credit Support issued or pledged in favor of such   Commodity Hedge Counterparty to support the Obligations of the Loan Parties under such   Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement. If following the application of any   Other Credit Support Amounts (or, to the extent that any Other Credit Support Exception exists   with respect to any such Other Credit Support, without regard to such Other Credit Support) to   the repayment of Obligations owing to the applicable Commodity Hedge Counterparty under any   Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement, such Commodity Hedge Counterparty   has not received the full amount of the First Lien Obligations or Second Lien Obligations, as   applicable, due under such Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement, it may,   subject to the provisions hereof, seek recourse to the First Lien Collateral (subject to the   Permitted First Lien Hedge Amount) or Second Lien Collateral (subject to the Permitted Second   Lien Hedge Amount), as applicable, on a first or second, as applicable, priority basis in   accordance with the terms of this Agreement.     

 

    35   SECTION 5. Other Agreements.   5.1 Releases.  (a)  If, in connection with the exercise of the First Lien   Collateral Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral provided for in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, the   First Lien Collateral Agent releases for itself or on behalf of any of the First Lien Secured Parties   any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral or releases any Guarantor from its obligations under   any First Lien Guaranty in connection with the sale of the Equity Interests in, or substantially all   of the Property of, such Guarantor, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Lien Collateral Agent   (for itself or for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties) on such Collateral and the   obligations of such Guarantor under its guaranty of the Second Lien Obligations shall be   automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released. The Second Lien Collateral Agent   shall promptly execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent or such Guarantor for itself   and on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Debt Representatives and the Second Lien Secured   Parties such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Collateral   Agent or such Guarantor may request to effectively confirm such release.   (b) Upon the written request of any Loan Party in connection with any Asset   Disposition permitted under the Financing Documents (other than in connection with the   exercise of any Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral provided for in   Sections 3.1 and 3.2), each Collateral Agent shall release for itself or on behalf of each of the   Secured Parties whom it represents its Liens on any part of the Collateral subject of such Asset   Disposition (including any Equity Interests in any Guarantor), and, in the event of a sale of all or   substantially all of the Property of a Guarantor or of all or substantially all of the Equity Interests   of a Guarantor, release such Guarantor from its obligations under each of the First Lien Guaranty   and Second Lien Guaranty. Each Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the   Borrower or such Guarantor for itself and on behalf of the Secured Parties whom it represents   such termination statements, releases and other documents as the Borrower or such Guarantor   may reasonably request in writing to effectively confirm such release.   (c) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, the Second Lien   Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties) and each Second Lien   Secured Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent and   any officer or agent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, 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   Second Lien Collateral Agent or such other Second Lien Secured Party, as the case may be, or in   the First Lien Collateral Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Lien Collateral   Agent’s discretion for the purpose of carrying out the terms of Section 5.1(a), to take any and all   appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be   necessary to accomplish the purposes of Section 5.1(a), including any endorsements or other   instruments of transfer or release.   (d) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, to the extent that the   First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Secured Parties (i) have released any Lien on   Collateral or any Guarantor from its obligation under any First Lien Guaranty and any such   Liens or First Lien Guaranty are later reinstated or (ii) obtain any new Liens or additional   guarantees from any Guarantor, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and for the   benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, shall be granted a Lien on any such Collateral,     

 

    36   subject to the lien subordination provisions of this Agreement, and an additional guaranty, as the   case may be.   5.2 Amendments to Second Lien Collateral Documents.  (a)  Until the   Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, without the prior written consent of the First   Lien Collateral Agent, acting at the written direction of the Required First Lien Secured Parties,   no Second Lien Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or   entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new   Second Lien Collateral Document, would contravene the provisions of this Agreement. The   Borrower and each Loan Party agrees that each Second Lien Collateral Document shall include   the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First Lien Collateral   Agent):   “Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest   granted to the Second Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the   exercise of any right or remedy by the Second Lien Collateral Agent hereunder   are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of   [__________], 2014 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or   otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among   MACH Gen, LLC, as Borrower, the Guarantors party thereto, CLMG Corp., as   First Lien Collateral Agent, [_______] as Second Lien Collateral Agent, CLMG   Corp., as Initial First Lien Administrative Agent and each other Person party or   that may become party thereto from time to time.  In the event of any conflict   between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of   the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”   In addition, the Borrower and each Loan Party agrees that each Second Lien Mortgage covering   any Collateral shall contain such other language as the First Lien Collateral Agent may   reasonably request to reflect the junior priority of such Second Lien Mortgage to the First Lien   Collateral Documents covering such Collateral.   (b) In the event any First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Secured Debt   Representatives or the First Lien Secured Parties and the relevant Loan Party enter into any   amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Lien Collateral Documents for the   purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any   provisions of, any First Lien Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the   First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien Secured Debt Representatives, such First Lien Secured   Parties, the Borrower or any Guarantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent   shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Lien Collateral   Document without the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Secured   Parties and without any action by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, the Borrower or any other   Guarantor; provided that (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of   (A) removing any Collateral from the Lien of the Second Lien Collateral Agent except where a   release is otherwise permitted or required pursuant to Section 5.1 or, following an exercise of   remedies prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, Section 3.1 or (B) imposing any duties   on, or increasing the obligations of, any Second Lien Secured Party without its prior written   consent and (ii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the     

 

    37   Second Lien Collateral Agent within ten (10) Business Days after the effective date of such   amendment, waiver or consent.   5.3 Amendments to Financing Documents.  (a)  The First Lien Documents   may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the   First Lien Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to or the consent of   any Collateral Agent, Secured Debt Representative or Secured Party that is not a party to such   First Lien Document without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this   Agreement; provided, however, that the holders of such Refinancing Debt (or any agent or   trustee therefor) execute and deliver an Accession Agreement to each of the Collateral Agents   pursuant to which they agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and have the   obligations of a First Lien Secured Party hereunder.   (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the continuance of   any First Lien Event of Default, any First Lien Secured Party shall be entitled in its reasonable   discretion to make payments or advances to the First Lien Collateral Agent, any Loan Party or   any other Person for the purpose of protecting, preserving or defending the value of the   Collateral; provided that such First Lien Secured Party notifies the Second Lien Collateral Agent   promptly after making such payment or advance; and any such payment or advance shall be   deemed to constitute part of the First Lien Obligations hereunder.   (c) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of   the Security Deposit Agreement, or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall   be effective without the written consent of each of the Required First Lien Lenders, and then   such amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific   instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such   amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless consented to by each Secured   Party specified below: (i) postpone any date scheduled for any payment in respect of the Secured   Obligations to a Secured Party, without the consent of such Secured Party, (ii) change the order   of application of any payments under Article III of the Security Deposit Agreement in any   manner that materially and adversely affects any Secured Party without the written consent of   such affected Secured Party, or (iii) adversely affect any Secured Party disproportionately vis a   vis any other Secured Party without the consent of such affected Secured Party.   5.4 When Discharge of First Lien Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred.    If concurrently with the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Borrower thereafter enters into a   Refinancing of any First Lien Loan Document, in each case, which Refinancing is permitted by   the terms hereunder, then such Discharge of First Lien Obligations shall automatically be   deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any   actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Lien Obligations) and,   from and after the date on which the New First Lien Debt Notice is delivered to the Second Lien   Collateral Agent (if any), the obligations under such Refinancing of the relevant First Lien   Document shall automatically be treated as First Lien Obligations for all purposes of this   Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set   forth herein, and the First Lien Collateral Agent under the new First Lien Documents shall be the   First Lien Collateral Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice (the   “New First Lien Debt Notice”) stating that the Borrower has entered into a new First Lien     

 

    38   Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new first lien collateral agent, such   agent, the “New First Lien Collateral Agent”), the Second Lien Collateral Agent (if any) shall   promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements   to this Agreement) as the Borrower or such New First Lien Collateral Agent shall reasonably   request in order to provide to the New First Lien Collateral Agent the rights contemplated   hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and   (b) deliver to the New First Lien Collateral Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with   any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New First Lien Collateral Agent to obtain   control of such Pledged Collateral). The New First Lien Collateral Agent shall execute and   deliver an Accession Agreement to the Second Lien Collateral Agent (if any). If the new First   Lien Obligations under the new First Lien Documents are secured by Property of the Loan   Parties constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Second Lien Obligations, then the   Second Lien Obligations shall be secured at such time by a second priority Lien on such Property   to the same extent provided in the Second Lien Collateral Documents and this Agreement.   5.5 [Reserved.]   5.6 Injunctive Relief.  Should any Second Lien Secured Party, contrary to this   Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the   Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with   respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, the First Lien   Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt Representative  or any First Lien Secured Party (in   its or their own name or in the name of the Borrower) or the Borrower may obtain relief against   such Second Lien Secured Parties by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate   equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf   of itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party that (i) the   First Lien Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and   may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Lien Secured Party waives any defense that the   Borrower and/or the First Lien Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made   whole by the awarding of damages.   5.7 Certain Actions.  So long as any Secured Obligations remain outstanding   in respect of more than one class of Secured Parties, the following provisions shall apply:    (a) Each Secured Debt Representative hereby agrees to give, pursuant to the   terms set forth in the First Lien Documents, the Second Lien Documents, as the case may be,   each of the Collateral Agents and each other Secured Debt Representative prompt written notice   of the occurrence of (i) any Event of Default under such Person’s Financing Documents, as   applicable, of which such Person has written notice, and (ii) acceleration of the maturity of any   Secured Obligations under any of the Financing Documents for which it acts as a Secured Debt   Representative wherein such Secured Obligations have been declared to be or have automatically   become due and payable earlier than the scheduled maturity thereof or termination date   thereunder (or similar remedial actions including demands for cash collateral (except in   connection with ordinary course margining under Permitted Commodity Hedge and Power Sale   Agreements) have been taken) and setting forth the aggregate amount of Secured Obligations   that have been so accelerated under such Financing Documents, in each case, as soon as   practicable after the occurrence thereof (and, in any event, within five Business Days after the     

 

    39   occurrence thereof); provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not limit or   impair the rights of the Secured Parties, or the obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan   Party, hereunder or under the other Financing Documents. No Agent shall be deemed to have   knowledge or notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Financing Documents to   which it is a party until such Agent has received a written notice of such Event of Default from   any other Agent, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties or any other Secured Party for whom such   Agent is acting as agent or trustee.   (b) Each Collateral Agent hereby agrees to give each Secured Debt   Representative written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default following receipt thereof   of written notice to it and provide a copy of all other information provided to it by the Borrower,   any other Loan Party or the Depositary under the Collateral Documents upon request.   (c) (i) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral   Agent hereby agrees that (without limiting anything set forth in the Security Deposit   Agreement), at the instruction of the Required First Lien Lenders during the occurrence and   continuation of an Event of Default or as otherwise contemplated by the Security Deposit   Agreement, it shall give such notices and instructions under the Security Deposit Agreement to   the Depositary and (ii) after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations but until the Discharge of   Second Lien Obligations, the Second Lien Collateral Agent hereby agrees that (without limiting   anything set forth in the Security Deposit Agreement), at the instruction of the Required Second   Lien Lenders during the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default or as otherwise   contemplated by the Security Deposit Agreement, it shall give such notices and instructions   under the Security Deposit Agreement.   (d) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that, at any time and from time to time, at   its sole cost and expense, it shall promptly execute and deliver all further agreements,   instruments, documents and certificates and take all further action that may be reasonably   necessary in order to fully effect the purposes of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents   (including, to the extent required by any Collateral Document, the delivery of possession of any   Collateral represented by certificated securities that hereafter comes into existence or is acquired   in the future by the Collateral Agents as pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and to   enable the Collateral Agents to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under the Collateral   Documents with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof.   (e) In the event of a Refinancing of any First Lien Loan Document,  which   Refinancing is permitted by the terms hereunder, upon the request of the First Lien Collateral   Agent, each First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty shall enter into or consent to substitute this Agreement with a replacement   thereof in connection with such Refinancing. Such First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty   and such Second Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty shall not have any right to object to (and   shall be deemed to have accepted) any provisions of such substitute agreement which are more   favorable to such First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and such Second Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty than the provisions contemplated by this Agreement prior to such   Refinancing. Such First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and such Second Lien   Commodity Hedge Counterparty shall also have no right to object to (and shall be deemed to   have accepted) any provisions of such substitute agreement which (A) are less favorable to it     

 

    40   than the provisions contemplated by such original agreement, if and to the extent the other   Secured Parties afforded approval rights in respect of such matters have accepted such provisions   and such provisions do not materially and adversely affect such First Lien Commodity Hedge   Counterparty’s or such Second Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty’s rights (taken as a whole)   as a Secured Party or (B) are customary for intercreditor agreements relating to similar   transactions.   5.8 Letters of Credit and Cash Collateral Accounts.  (a)  Notwithstanding   anything to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall be construed (i) to impair the rights of   any Commodity Hedge Counterparty to exercise its rights and remedies with respect to any cash   collateral pledged for its sole benefit or as a beneficiary under and pursuant to any Other Credit   Support issued in its favor, or (ii) to impair the rights of any Commodity Hedge Counterparty to   exercise any of its rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor under any or all Permitted   Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreements to which it is a party or (iii) to impair the rights   of any Commodity Hedge Counterparty to exercise its rights to set off and net amounts under   and among any Permitted Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreements to which it is a party.   (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall   be construed to impair the rights of any of the First Lien Lender Parties to exercise their rights   and remedies in respect of the Cash Collateral Accounts or Debt Service Reserve Account and   each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Lien of any Collateral Agent in, to   and under the Cash Collateral Accounts or Debt Service Reserve Account and all funds on   deposit therein or credited thereto shall be solely for the benefit of (i) in the case of the   Revolving L/C Cash Collateral Account, any First Lien Lender Party with a Commitment in   respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, and (ii) in the case of the Debt Service Reserve   Account, the First Lien Lender Parties. In the event any additional Cash Collateral Accounts are   established in connection with cash collateralizing Letters of Credit as contemplated by the   definition of Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the definition of Discharge of Second Lien   Obligations or as otherwise contemplated by the Financing Documents, such Cash Collateral   Accounts shall only be for the benefit of the particular Secured Party who issued or has   participation interests in such Letters of Credit being cash collateralized.   5.9 Additional Secured Obligations.  (a)  Subject to the limitations set forth in   the Financing Documents, each Loan Party and each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees   that the Collateral may secure additional Obligations of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties   (a) in respect of the Refinancing of the First Lien Credit Agreement, and (b) Secured Commodity   Hedge and Power Sale Agreements. Upon execution and delivery to the Collateral Agents of an   Accession Agreement by the Persons to whom the obligations referred to in the immediately   preceding sentence are owed (or, in the case of a Commodity Hedge Counterparty that is already   party to an Accession Agreement with respect to one or more Secured Commodity Hedge and   Power Sale Agreements, upon such Commodity Hedge Counterparty entering into a supplement   to such Accession Agreement in the form of Attachment I thereto to include any additional   Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement being entered into by such Commodity   Hedge Counterparty after the date of such Accession Agreement), such Persons shall become   “First Lien Secured Parties” or “Second Lien Secured Parties” hereunder, as applicable, and   the obligations owed to such Persons shall become “First Lien Obligations” or “Second Lien   Obligations”, as applicable. Each Loan Party and each Secured Party agrees that this Agreement     

 

    41   and the applicable Collateral Documents may be amended by the Loan Parties and the Collateral   Agents without the consent of any Secured Party to the extent necessary or desirable to   effectuate the intent of this Section 5.9, (ii) cause the Liens granted thereby to be in favor of such   Persons (to the extent Liens in favor of such Persons are expressly permitted by the terms of all   of the Financing Documents) and (iii) cause such Persons to be treated in the same manner as the   other First Lien Secured Parties or the Second Lien Secured Parties, as applicable, under this   Agreement and the other Collateral Documents.   (b) Notwithstanding anything in the Financing Documents to the contrary,   until a Repayment Event (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) has occurred, (x) the   aggregate amount of all Maximum First Lien Amounts under all Accession Agreements   associated with any Secured Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreements shall not at any   time exceed (A) $80,000,000, minus (B) $30,000,000 upon and following a Harquahala Sale, and   minus (C) $10,000,000 upon and following an Asset Disposition with respect to all of the Equity   Interests in Millennium, or all or substantially all of the Property of Millennium, minus (D) to the   extent such amounts are greater than $20,000,000, the aggregate amount of all Termination   Payments paid by the Borrower with respect to termination of Commodity Hedge and Power   Sale Agreements that exceed $20,000,000, and (y) no Person shall be permitted to become or be   designated as “First Lien Secured Parties” or “Second Lien Secured Parties” and no obligations   owing to such Persons shall become or be designated as “First Lien Obligations” or “Second   Lien Obligations” unless such Persons are expressly permitted to be so designated and such   obligations so secured under the terms of all the Financing Documents.   5.10 Bailee for Perfection; Representative; Relationship.  (a)  The First Lien   Collateral Agent agrees to hold the Pledged Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in   the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as collateral agent for the First Lien Secured   Parties and as bailee for the Second Lien Collateral Agent (such bailment being intended, among   other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and   any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the First Lien   Collateral Documents and the Second Lien Collateral Documents, respectively, subject to the   terms and conditions of this Section 5.10.   (b) Subject to applicable law and the terms of this Agreement, until the   Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled   to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms   of this Agreement and the other the First Lien Documents as if the Liens of the Second Lien   Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Secured Parties did not exist.  The rights of the Second Lien   Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral shall at all   times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.   (c) The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligations whatsoever to   the First Lien Secured Parties, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt   Representative or any Second Lien Secured Party to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine   or owned by any Loan Party or to preserve the rights or benefits of any Person except as   expressly set forth in this Section 5.10.  The duties or responsibilities of the First Lien Collateral   Agent under this Section 5.10 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee     

 

    42   in accordance with this Section 5.10 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of   First Lien Obligations as provided in clause (e) below.   (d) The First Lien Collateral Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall   not have by reason of the First Lien Collateral Documents or the Second Lien Collateral   Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any   Secured Debt Representative, First Lien Secured Party or Second Lien Secured Party.   (e) Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral   Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary   endorsements, first, if the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has not occurred, to the Second   Lien Collateral Agent and second, if the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has occurred, to   the Borrower (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such   Pledged Collateral). The First Lien Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action   reasonably requested by the Second Lien Collateral Agent in connection with the Second Lien   Collateral Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent   jurisdiction may otherwise direct.   (f) Upon the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Second Lien   Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any   necessary endorsements to the Borrower so as to allow the Borrower to obtain possession and   control of such Pledged Collateral.   SECTION 6. Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.   6.1 Finance and Sale Issues.  Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has   occurred, if the Borrower or any Guarantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation   Proceeding and the First Lien Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Required First Lien   Lenders) shall desire to permit the use of “cash collateral” (as such term is defined in Section   363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, “Cash Collateral”), on which the First Lien Collateral Agent or   any other creditor has a Lien, then the Collateral Agents, the First Lien Administrative Agent (on   behalf of itself and the First Lien Lender Parties), each First Lien Commodity Hedge   Counterparty, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Secured   Parties), each Second Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and each other Secured Party agrees   that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use so long as each such Secured Debt   Representative and Secured Party retains the right to object to any ancillary agreements or   arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use that are materially prejudicial to their interests.   6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay.  Until the Discharge of First Lien   Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and each Second   Lien Secured Party) and each Second Lien Secured Party agree that none of them shall seek (or   support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any   Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written   consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted   under Section 6.3 has been denied by the Bankruptcy Court.     

 

    43   6.3 Adequate Protection.  (a)  The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of   itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party agree that none   of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting):   (i) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Secured   Parties for adequate protection; or    (ii) any objection by the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Secured   Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the First Lien Collateral   Agent or the First Lien Secured Parties claiming a lack of adequate protection.   (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provision in this Section 6.3, in any   Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding:   (i) if the First Lien Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted   adequate protection in the form of additional collateral in connection with any use of   Cash Collateral or any financing, whether from the First Lien Secured Parties or any   other Person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law   (“DIP Financing”), then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of   the Second Lien Secured Parties) may seek or request adequate protection in the form of   a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens   securing the First Lien Obligations and such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (and   all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second   Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the First Lien Obligations under this Agreement;   and   (ii) in the event the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of   the Second Lien Secured Parties) seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of the   Second Lien Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of   additional collateral, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself or any of   the Second Lien Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party agree that the First   Lien Collateral Agent shall also be granted a Senior Lien on such additional collateral as   security for the First Lien Obligations and for any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing   provided by the First Lien Secured Parties and that any Lien on such additional collateral   securing the Second Lien Obligations shall be subordinated to the Lien on such collateral   securing the First Lien Obligations and any such DIP Financing provided by the First   Lien Secured Parties (and all Obligations relating thereto) and to any other Liens granted   to the First Lien Secured Parties as adequate protection on the same basis as the other   Liens securing the Second Lien Obligations are so subordinated to such First Lien   Obligations under this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 6.1   or this Section 6.3, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Second Lien Collateral   Agent or the Second Lien Secured Parties from seeking adequate protection with respect   to their rights in the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (including   adequate protection in the form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments, cash   payments of interest or otherwise).     

 

    44   6.4 No Waiver.  Subject to Sections 3.1(a) and (d), nothing contained herein   shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt   Representative or any First Lien Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency or Liquidation   Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any Second   Lien Secured Debt Representative or any of the Second Lien Secured Parties, including the   seeking by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or   the Second Lien Secured Parties of adequate protection or the asserting by the Second Lien   Collateral Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or any Second Lien Secured   Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Lien Documents or otherwise.   6.5 Avoidance Issues.  If any First Lien Secured Party is required in any   Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of   the Borrower or any Guarantor any amount paid in respect of the First Lien Obligations (a “First   Lien Recovery”), then such First Lien Secured Party shall be entitled to a reinstatement of First   Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts. In such event (a) the Discharge of   First Lien Obligations shall be deemed not to have occurred and (b) if this Agreement shall have   been terminated prior to such First Lien Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full   force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or   otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement.   6.6 Reorganization Securities.  If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation   Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any Property of the   reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive   restructuring plan, on account of the First Lien Obligations and on account of the Second Lien   Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien   Obligations and on account of the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same   Property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations   pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations.   6.7 Post-Petition Interest.  (a)  None of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any   Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or any Second Lien Secured Party shall oppose or   seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt   Representative or any First Lien Secured Party, for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation   Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the   extent of the value of the First Lien without regard to the existence of the Second Lien on the   Collateral.    (b) None of the First Lien Collateral Agent, any First Lien Secured Debt   Representative or any First Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by   the Second Lien Collateral Agent, any Second Lien Secured Debt Representative or any Second   Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien   Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the   Second Lien on the Collateral (after taking into account the First Lien Collateral).   6.8 Waiver.  The Second Lien Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the   Second Lien Secured Parties) and each Second Lien Secured Party waives any claim it may   hereafter have against any First Lien Secured Party, arising out of the election of any First Lien     

 

    45   Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, out of any cash   collateral or financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with   the Collateral in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.    SECTION 7. Collateral Agents.   7.1 Appointment; Authorization.  (a)  Each of the First Lien Administrative   Agent (for itself and on behalf of each First Lien Lender Party) and each First Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty hereby irrevocably designates and appoints CLMG as First Lien Collateral   Agent under this Agreement and the other First Lien Documents. If any of the Loan Parties   proposes to grant any Second Lien on the Collateral to secure its obligations under a Permitted   Commodity Hedge and Power Sale Agreement, the proposed initial Second Lien Secured Parties,   in consultation with the Borrower, shall appoint a collateral agent as Second Lien Collateral   Agent under this Agreement and the other Second Lien Documents pursuant to a written   instrument signed by such Second Lien Collateral Agent and acknowledged by the First Lien   Collateral Agent and the Borrower, in which such Second Lien Collateral Agent accepts its   appointment and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the   Second Lien Documents applicable to the Second Lien Collateral Agent. Upon execution of such   instrument the Second Lien Collateral Agent shall become a party hereto in its capacity as   Second Lien Collateral Agent.   (b) Each of the First Lien Administrative Agent (on behalf of itself and each   First Lien Lender Party), each First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien   Secured Party irrevocably authorize the First Lien Collateral Agent and, upon the appointment of   any such Agent, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, to (i) execute, deliver and   perform the obligations, if any, of the First Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Collateral   Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and each other Financing Document and (ii) take   such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing   Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to   such Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents,   together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not   expressly provided for in the Financing Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement   or collection of the obligations of the Secured Parties), no Collateral Agent shall be required to   exercise any discretion or take any action but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting   (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions   of (subject to Section 9.4) (A) prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Required First   Lien Secured Parties and (B) after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations but prior to the   Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the Required Second Lien Secured Parties, and such   instructions shall be binding upon all First Lien Secured Parties and Second Lien Secured   Parties, as applicable; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that   exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.   (c) In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the First Lien Administrative   Agent (for itself and on behalf of each First Lien Lender Party), each First Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien Secured Party hereby appoints and authorizes the   First Lien Collateral Agent or the Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, to act as its agent   for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any     

 

    46   of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person, together with   such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.   7.2 Delegation of Duties.  (a)  Each Collateral Agent may execute any of its   duties under this Agreement and the First Lien Documents and the Second Lien Documents   (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral, as applicable, (or any   portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights or remedies   thereunder at the direction of such Collateral Agent) by or through agents, employees or   attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts of its   choice concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Collateral Agent shall be responsible   for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact selected by it with reasonable   care.   (b) Each Collateral Agent may also from time to time, when such Collateral   Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral   co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”)   with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, however, that no such Supplemental   Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and   except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by such Collateral Agent. Should any   instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any   Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by any Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly   vest in and confirm to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers, privileges and   duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver   any and all such instruments promptly upon request by such Collateral Agent. If any   Supplemental Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting,   resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral   Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the   applicable Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. No   Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or   Supplemental Collateral Agent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this   Section 7.2(b) in the absence of such Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.   (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to any Collateral Agent shall be   deemed to have been given to each Supplemental Collateral Agent. Every instrument appointing   any Supplemental Collateral Agent shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this   Section 7.2.   (d) Any Supplemental Collateral Agent may at any time appoint any   Collateral Agent as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not   prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf or in   its name.   7.3 Exculpatory Provisions.  (a)  No Collateral Agent nor any of its officers,   directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or   omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other   Financing Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and   nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such     

 

    47   Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct). Without limitation of the generality of the   foregoing, each Collateral Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any   Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be   liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the   advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any   Secured Party and shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for any statements, warranties or   representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Financing   Documents; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance,   observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Financing   Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of any Event of Default   under the Financing Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of   any Loan Party; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Secured Party for the due execution, legality,   validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any   lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any   Financing Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and   (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Financing Document by acting upon any   notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or   electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or   parties.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that (A) each Collateral Agent is   acting as collateral agent for a separate Lien class and, as provided for herein, may be required to   take actions on behalf of that Lien class only and (B) no Collateral Agent shall have any liability   to any Person (including any Secured Party) as a result of or arising from an action which it takes   hereunder which benefits one class of Lien-holders but not all Secured Parties, unless (and   without limiting any other right or protection of the Collateral Agent hereunder) such action   violates the terms of this Agreement and is found by a final and nonappealable decision of a   court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct   of such Collateral Agent.   (b) No Collateral Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities except those   expressly set forth in this Agreement and no implied duties or covenants shall be read against   such Collateral Agent.   (c) No Collateral Agent shall have any obligation to expend or risk its own   funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.   (d) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and as   otherwise specifically set forth herein, no Collateral Agent shall have any duty as to any of the   Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any   income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining   thereto and no Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation   statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or   otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. No   Collateral Agent shall be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of   the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent   or bailee selected by such Collateral Agent in good faith.     

 

    48   (e) In the event that any Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to any   Property for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to   carry out any obligation for the benefit of another, which in such Collateral Agent’s sole   discretion may cause such Collateral Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under the   provisions of CERCLA, or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent to incur liability under   CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, such Collateral Agent reserves the right,   instead of taking such action, to either resign as Collateral Agent or arrange for the transfer of the   title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. No Collateral Agent shall be liable to   the Secured Parties, the Loan Parties or any other Person for any Environmental Actions under   any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of such Collateral Agent’s actions and   conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the discharge, release or   threatened release of hazardous materials into the environment. If at any time it is necessary or   advisable for any part of a Project to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person   (including any Collateral Agent) other than a Loan Party or the Secured Parties, (i) prior to the   Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the Required First Lien Secured Parties and (ii) after the   Discharge of First Lien Obligations but prior to the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, the   Required Second Lien Secured Parties, shall direct the applicable Collateral Agent to appoint an   appropriately qualified Person (excluding any Collateral Agent) who they shall designate to   possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, such Project.   (f) No Collateral Agent shall be liable with respect to any action taken or   omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Required First Lien   Secured Parties and/or the Required Second Lien Secured Parties, as the case may be, relating to   the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to such   Collateral Agent, or exercising any power conferred upon such Collateral Agent, under this   Agreement.   7.4 Reliance by Collateral Agents.  Each Collateral Agent shall be entitled to   rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice,   consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other   document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent   or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel   (including counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by   such Collateral Agent. Each Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take   any action under this Agreement or any other Financing Document unless it shall first receive   such legal advice or the concurrence of the Required First Lien Secured Parties prior to the   Discharge of First Lien Obligations or the Required Second Lien Secured Parties prior to the   Discharge of Second Lien Obligations, as applicable, in accordance with the terms hereof, or it   shall first be indemnified or receive security to its satisfaction by the Secured Parties against any   and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take   any such action. Each Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on the First Lien Administrative   Agent (for itself and on behalf of each First Lien Lender Party), each First Lien Commodity   Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien Secured Party, to indicate whether a Person is a   holder of a First Lien Obligation or Second Lien Obligation, as the case may be, of record at any   time. Each Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from   acting, under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents in accordance with a written   request from the First Lien Administrative Agent (for itself and on behalf of each First Lien     

 

    49   Lender Party), each First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien Secured   Party, as the case may be, and such written request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant   thereto shall be binding upon all the Secured Parties. The rights, privileges, protections and   benefits given to the Collateral Agents including, without limitation, its rights to be indemnified,   are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, each such Collateral Agent in each of its capacities   hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other persons employed by such Collateral Agent in   accordance herewith to act hereunder.   7.5 Notice of Event of Default.  No Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have   actual knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default unless such Collateral   Agent has received written notice from an authorized officer of a Secured Party or a Loan Party   referring to this Agreement and the applicable document or documents governing such Event of   Default, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Event of   Default”. In the event that such Collateral Agent receives such a written notice, such Collateral   Agent shall give notice thereof to the other Secured Parties.   7.6 Non-Reliance on Collateral Agents and Other Secured Parties.  (a)  Each   of the First Lien Administrative Agent (on behalf of itself and each First Lien Lender Party),   each First Lien Commodity Hedge Counterparty and each Second Lien Secured Party:   (i) expressly acknowledge that no Collateral Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees,   agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that   no act by any Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the   Borrower or any of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by   such Collateral Agent to any such Person; (ii) represents to each Collateral Agent that it has,   independently and without reliance upon any Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party and   based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal   of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and   creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Affiliates and made its own decision to extend credit to   the Borrower and to enter into the Financing Documents to which it is a party; and   (iii) represents that they will, independently and without reliance upon any Collateral Agent or   any other Secured Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem   appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analyses, appraisals and decisions in   taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, and to   make such investigation as its deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations,   property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Affiliates.   (b) Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be   furnished to the Secured Parties by the Collateral Agents hereunder, no Collateral Agent shall   have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any credit or other information   concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or   creditworthiness of the Borrower or its Affiliates that may come into the possession of such   Collateral Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or   Affiliates.   7.7 Collateral Agents in Individual Capacity.  With respect to Obligations   made or renewed by it or any of its Affiliates, the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Second Lien   Collateral Agent and such Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement     

 

    50   and the other First Lien Documents and Second Lien Documents as any First Lien Secured Party   or Second Lien Secured Party, if applicable, and may exercise the same as though it were not a   Collateral Agent, and the terms “Secured Party”, “First Lien Secured Party” or “Second Lien   Secured Party” shall (to the extent applicable) include each such Person in its individual   capacity. The Collateral Agents and their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend   money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and   generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries and any   Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all   as if the Collateral Agents were not Agents and without any duty to account therefor to the   Secured Parties   7.8 Successor Collateral Agents.  Each Person acting in such capacity may   resign as a First Lien Collateral Agent or Second Lien Collateral Agent, as the case may be, upon   30 days’ notice to each other Secured Party party hereto and the Borrower. If the First Lien   Collateral Agent resigns, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall appoint a successor collateral   agent at the direction of the Required First Lien Secured Parties in consultation with the   Borrower, whereupon such successor collateral agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and   duties of the First Lien Collateral Agent, and the term “First Lien Collateral Agent” shall mean   such successor collateral agent effective upon such appointment, and the resigning Collateral   Agent’s rights, powers and duties as First Lien Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any   other or further act or deed on the part of the resigning Collateral Agent or any of the parties to   this Agreement or any Secured Party. If the Second Lien Collateral Agent resigns, the Second   Lien Collateral Agent shall appoint a successor agent at the direction of the Required Second   Lien Secured Parties in consultation with the Borrower, whereupon such successor agent shall   succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, and the term   “Second Lien Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor collateral agent effective upon such   appointment and approval and the resigning Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as   Second Lien Collateral Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the   part of the resigning Collateral Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any Secured   Party. If no successor collateral agent has accepted appointment as First Lien Collateral Agent or   Second Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, by the date that is 30 days following the resigning   Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, such resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become   effective and (a) in the case of the resignation of the First Lien Collateral Agent, the First Lien   Secured Parties shall assume and perform all of the duties of the First Lien Collateral Agent   hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required First Lien Secured Parties appoint a successor   collateral agent as contemplated above and (b) in the case of the resignation of the Second Lien   Collateral Agent, the Second Lien Secured Parties shall assume and perform all of the duties of   the Second Lien Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Second Lien   Secured Parties appoint a successor collateral agent as contemplated above. After any Person’s   resignation as a Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 7 shall inure to its benefit as to   any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Collateral Agent under this   Agreement and the other Financing Documents.   7.9 Security Documents.  Each of the Secured Parties (other than any   Collateral Agent) hereby authorizes and instructs each Collateral Agent to, and each Collateral   Agent shall execute, deliver and perform each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party   (including the preservation, protection and sale of the Collateral, authorizing the Depositary to     

 

    51   withdraw and transfer funds in accordance with the Security Deposit Agreement and paying over   proceeds received by such Collateral Agent to the Depositary).   7.10 Indemnification.  (a)  Each Loan Party hereto, agrees to indemnify, defend   and save and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against, and shall pay on demand,   any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation,   reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted or   awarded against any Indemnified Person, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by   reason of any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection   with, arising from or regarding: (i) the Financing Documents, the actual or proposed use of the   proceeds of the First Lien Loans or the Letters of Credit issued under the First Lien Documents   or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of   Hazardous Materials on any property of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any   Environmental Action relating in any way to any Loan Party, except to the extent such claim,   damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of   competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or   willful misconduct. Each Loan Party also agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any   Secured Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees,   agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive   damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Financing Documents, the actual or proposed   use of the proceeds of the First Lien Loans or the Letters of Credit or any of the transactions   contemplated by the Financing Documents (except in the case of gross negligence or willful   misconduct).   (b) Each Loan Party agrees to pay on demand (i) all reasonable and duly   documented costs and expenses of each Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation,   execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, or any consent or waiver   under, this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents (including, without limitation, the   reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for such Collateral Agent) and (ii) all reasonable and   duly documented costs and expenses of each Collateral Agent in connection with the   enforcement of the Collateral Documents, whether in any action, suit or litigation, or any   bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally   (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for such Collateral   Agent). All amounts due under Section 7.10(a) shall be payable not later than 30 days after   written demand therefor.   (c) To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold   harmless set forth in Section 7.10(a) may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are   violative of any law or public policy, each Loan Party (without duplication) shall contribute the   maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and   satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred pursuant to Section 7.10(a) by any Indemnified   Person.

The obligations in respect of any sum due to any other party   hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law notwithstanding any judgment   expressed in a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business   Day following receipt by such party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency   such Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Dollars with such   other currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such   Person, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to   indemnify such Person against such resulting loss; and if the amount of Dollars so purchased   exceeds the sum originally due to such Person, such Person agrees to remit such excess to the   Borrower.   7.12 No Risk of Funds.
