Amount"), together with interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, at maturity or upon acceleration or otherwise,
as set forth herein (the "Note"). The consideration to the Borrower for this Note is up to $200,000.00 (the "Consideration").
The Holder shall pay $40,000.00 of the Consideration

to this Note. At the closing of the First Tranche, the outstanding principal amount under this Note shall be $45,000.00. consisting
of the First Tranche plus the prorated portion of the OID (as defined herein). The Holder may pay, in its sole discretion, such
additional amounts of the Consideration and at such dates as the Holder may choose in its sole discretion. THE PRINCIPAL
SUM DUE TO THE HOLDER SHALL BE PRORATED BASED ON THE CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY PAID BY THE HOLDER, THE APPLICABLE PORTION OF THE
OID, AS WELL AS THE APPLICABLE INTEREST, SUCH THAT THE ISSUER IS ONLY REQUIRED TO REPAY THE AMOUNT FUNDED (PLUS THE OID AND APPLICABLE
INTEREST) AND THE ISSUER IS NOT REQUIRED TO REPAY ANY UNFUNDED PORTION OF THIS NOTE. The
maturity date for each tranche funded shall be twelve (12) months from the effective date of each payment (each a "Maturity
Date"), and is the date upon which the principal sum of each respective tranche, as well as any accrued and unpaid interest
and other fees relating to that respective tranche, shall be due and payable. This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part
except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note. which is not paid by the Maturity
Date, shall bear interest at the rate of twenty two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid ("Default
Interest"). Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the Note is fully paid and shall be computed on the basis of
a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into the Borrower's
common stock (the "Common Stock") in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States
of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made
in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to he due by the terms or this Note is due on any
day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the
case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof
shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the
term "business day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city

ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS

 

1.1       Conversion
Right. The Holder shall have the right at any time to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount
and accrued and unpaid interest of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists
on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter
be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the "Conversion Price") determined as provided herein (a "Conversion");
provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that
portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder
and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted
portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on
conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number or shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result
in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes
of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence. beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). and Regulations 13D-G thereunder. except as
otherwise provided in clause (I) of such proviso, provided, further, however. that the limitations on conversion may be
waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Borrower, and the provisions
of the conversion limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as
may be specified in such notice of waiver). The number of shares of Common Stock to he issued upon each conversion of this Note
shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on
the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Conversion"),
delivered to the Borrower or Borrower's transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice
of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in. notice)
to the Borrower or Borrower's transfer agent before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the "Conversion
Date"). The term "Conversion Amount" means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal
amount of this Note to he converted in such conversion plus  (2) at the Holder's option, accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus  (3) at the Holder's
option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus 
(4) at the Holder's option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof.

1.2       Conversion
Price.

 

(a) Calculation
of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to
equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower's
securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications,
extraordinary distributions and similar events) (also subject to adjustment as further described herein). The "Variable
Conversion Price" shall mean 58% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of
42%). "Market Price" means the one (1) lowest Trading Prices for the Common Stock during the twenty five (25)
Trading Day period ending on the last complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. "Trading Prices" means,
for any security as of any date, the lowest traded price on the Over-the-Counter Pink Marketplace, OTCQB, or applicable
trading market (the "OTCQB") as reported by a reliable reporting service ("Reporting Service") designated
by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or. if the OTCQB is not the principal trading market for such security, on the principal
securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or. if the lowest intraday trading price of
such security is not available in any of the tOregoing manners, the lowest intraday price of any market makers for such
security that are quoted on the OTC Markets. If the Trading Prices cannot he calculated for such security on such dale in the
manner provided above, the Trading Prices shall he the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the
holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation of the Trading Prices are required
in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. "Trading Day" shall mean any day on which the Common
Stock is tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which
the Common Stock is then being traded. 1 f at any time while this Note is outstanding. the lowest Trading Prices on the OTCQB
or other applicable principal trading market for the Common Stock is equal to or lower than $0.005, then an additional
ten percent (10%) discount shall be factored into the Conversion Price until this Note is no longer outstanding. In the event
that shares of the Borrower's Common Stock arc not deliverable via DWAC following the conversion of any amount hereunder, an
additional ten percent (10%) discount shall be factored into the Conversion Price until this Note is no longer outstanding.
If at any time while this Note is outstanding, the lowest Trading Prices on the OTCQB or other applicable principal trading
market for the Common Stock is equal to or lower than $0.0005, then $10,000.00 shall immediately be added to the balance of
the Note.

 

 

    	 	3	 

     

    

 

Each time, while this
Note is outstanding. the Borrower enters into a Section 3(a)(9) transaction (including but not limited to the issuance of new promissory
notes or of a replacement promissory note), or Section 3(a)(10) transaction, in which any 3rd party has the right to
convert monies owed to that 3'd party (or receive shares pursuant to a settlement or otherwise) at a discount to market
greater than the Variable Conversion Price in effect at that time (prior to all other applicable adjustments in the Note), then
the Variable Conversion Price shall be automatically adjusted to such greater discount percentage (prior to all applicable adjustments
in this Note) until this Note is no longer outstanding. Each time, while this Note is outstanding, the Borrower enters into a Section
3(a)(9) transaction (including but not limited to the issuance of new promissory notes or or a replacement promissory' note), or
Section 3(a)(10) transaction, in which any 3rd party has a look back period greater than the look back period in effect
under the Note at that time (a twenty five (25) Trading Day look back period is contained in this Section 1.2(a)), then the Holder's
look back period shall automatically be adjusted to such greater number of days until this Note is no longer outstanding. The Borrower
shall give written notice to the Holder, with the adjusted Variable Conversion Price and/or adjusted look back period (each adjustment
that is applicable due to the triggering event), within one (1) business day of an event that requires any adjustment described
in the two immediately preceding sentences.

 

Holder shall be entitled to deduct $500.00
from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder's deposit lees associated with each Notice of Conversion.

 

(b) Authorized
Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized
and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock
upon the full conversion of this Note. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved ten times the number
of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect from
time to time) (the "Reserved Amount"). The Reserved Amount shall he increased from time to time in accordance with the
Borrower's obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital
structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at the then current
Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number
of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding Notes. The Borrower
(i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents
who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common
Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain
the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of the Note.

 

1.3       Met hod of Conversion.

 

(a) Mechanics of
Conversion. Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time
after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means
of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b),
surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.

 

(b) Surrender
of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance
with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire unpaid
principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount
so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method. reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower,
so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy. such
records of the Borrower shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding
the foregoing. if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first
physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower. whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the
Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request,
representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of
this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this
Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the
face hereof.

 

(c) Payment
of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in
the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other
than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or
other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street
name such shares are to be held for the Holder's account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the
amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.

 

 

    	 	5	 

     

    

 

(d) Delivery of
Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other
reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section
1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for
the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within two (2) business days after such receipt (the "Deadline") (and,
solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms
hereof.

 

(c) Obligation
of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to
be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued
and unpaid interest on this Note shall he reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations
under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the
right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If' the Holder
shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower's obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for
Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same,
any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce
tile same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower io the holder of record, or any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower,
and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection
with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice
of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

 

(f) 
Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common
Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated
Securities Transfer ("FAST") program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in
Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder's Prime Broker with DTC through its
Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system.

 

(g) Failure to
Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder's right to pursue other remedies,
including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in
Section 1.3 above, which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay 10 the Holder $2,000 per day in
cash, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid
to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by
written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to
the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and
such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The
Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to
frustrate, interference with such conversion right arc difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly the parties
acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(g) are justified.

 

 

    	 	6	 

     

    

 

(h) DTC; Sub-Penny.
If at any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) the Borrower fails to maintain its status as "DTC Eligible" for any
reason, or (ii) the Conversion Price is equal to or lower than $0.01, the❑ an additional ten percent (10%) discount shall
be factored into the Conversion Price until this Note is no longer outstanding.

 

1.4       Concerning
the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such
shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall
have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of
counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant
to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a
successor rule) ("Rule 144") or (iv) such shares arc transferred to an "affiliate" (as defined in Rule 144)

of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each
certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration
statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the
legend, shall hear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

 

"NEITHER TILE ISSUANCE AND SALE
OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE,
SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE
FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (11) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING
THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT
SECURED BY THE SECURITIES."

 

 

    	 	7	 

     

    

 

The legend set
forth above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any  transfer
legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common
Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Borrower so that the sale or
transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is
registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be
immediately sold. In the event that the Borrower does not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect
to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S, at the Deadline,
it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.

or traded, in no event shall the Borrower issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note more than the maximum number

quotation system or other self-regulatory organization with jurisdiction over the Borrower or any of its securities on the Borrower's
ability to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Maximum Share Amount, in lieu of any further right to convert this Note,
this will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.3 of the Note.

 

1.6Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a
Notice of Conversion by a Holder, ti) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares, if any, which cannot be issued
because their issuance would exceed such Holder's allocated portion of the Reserved Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall be
deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder's rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Note
shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any
remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to
comply with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received certificates for all shares
of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of
any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common
Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a 1 [older of this Note with respect to such
unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the Holder
or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been
converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive. Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent

the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination
Date, in an aggregate amount for all Loans not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Lender’s Commitment. Within

2.01(a), prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). Committed Loans may be Base Rate
Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

Project Financing Maturity Date, the Borrower shall have the option to convert all (but not less than all) outstanding Committed
Loans to term loans (each, a “Term Loan”) in the same principal amount outstanding as the Committed Loans as

Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans.

 

(a)          Each
Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans or Term Loans from one Type to the other, the conversion of Committed Loans to Term
Loans, and each continuation of Committed Loans or Term Loans as the same Type shall be made upon the Borrower’s giving an
irrevocable Loan Notice to the Lender. Each such Loan Notice must be received by the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., New York

Rate Loans or of any conversion of any such Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing
of Base Rate Loans; provided that, a Loan Notice delivered on the Closing Date may request a Eurodollar Rate Loan on the
request date. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount
of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion to any such Base Rate Loans
shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice shall specify
(i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Committed Loans or Term Loans from one Type to the other, the
conversion of Committed Loans to Term Loans or a continuation of Committed Loans or Term Loans as the same Type, (ii) the requested
date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount
of Committed Loans or Term Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing
Committed Loans or Term Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.
If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Committed Loan or Term Loan, in a Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely
notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Committed Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, shall be made
or continued as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the
last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a
Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest
Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

 

(b)          Following
receipt of a Loan Notice and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing
is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Lender shall make the funds available to the Borrower by wire transfer
of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to the Lender by the Borrower.

 

(c)          Except
as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of the Interest Period
for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to
or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Lender, and the Lender may demand that any or all of the then
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans be converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the respective Interest Periods therefor, if at
the end of such periods, a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence.

 

(d)          The
Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the interest rate applicable to any Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan upon determination
of such interest rate. The determination of the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate by the Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. The Lender shall notify the Borrower of any change in its referenced prime rate used in determining the Base Rate
promptly following the public announcement of such change.

 

(e)          After
giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Committed Loans to Term Loans, all conversions of Committed Loans or Term Loans
from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Committed Loans or Term Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than
5 Interest Periods in effect with respect to Committed Loans or Term Loans, as applicable.

principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans
shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the
date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower
shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.
Any prepayment of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional
amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

 

(b)          If
for any reason the Outstanding Amount of all Committed Loans at any time exceeds the Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall
immediately prepay such Committed Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

 

2.06         Reduction
or Termination of Commitments.

 

(a)          The
Borrower may, upon notice to Lender, terminate the Commitment, or permanently reduce the Commitment to an amount not less than
the then Outstanding Amount of all Loans; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Lender not later than
11:00 a.m., five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Once reduced in accordance with this Section,
the Commitment may not be increased. All facility fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitment shall
be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 

(b)          The
Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Project Financing Maturity Date and any outstanding Loans shall be due and payable
on such date.

 

2.07         Repayment
of Loans.

 

(a)          The
Borrower shall repay to the Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Committed Loan or Term Loan on the Maturity Date for
such Loan.

 

(b)          On
or before the earlier of the Maturity Date and the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, Borrower may repay or prepay (without
premium or penalty), as applicable, all, but not less than all, of the then aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans by payment-in-kind
by transferring ownership of the Borrower’s entire direct and indirect interest in the Project to Lender.

 

2.08         Interest.

 

(a)          Subject
to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Interest
Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof
from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

 

    	 	32	 

     

    

 

(b)          In
the event any amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any interest payment) is not
paid when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the Borrower shall pay interest on such unpaid amount (including, without
limitation, interest on interest) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable
upon demand.

 

(c)          Interest
on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may
be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment,
and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

 

2.09         Fees.

 

(a)          Facility
Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender for its account, a facility fee equal to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the actual
daily amount of the Commitment, regardless of usage. The facility fee shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the
Maturity Date provided that, if the Lender continues to have any Credit Extensions (including Term Loans) outstanding after
its Commitment terminates, then such Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of the Lender’s Credit Extensions
(including Term Loans), from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which the Lender
ceases to have any outstanding Credit Extensions (including Term Loans). The Facility Fee shall be due and payable quarterly in
arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after
the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. The facility fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change
in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately
for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. The facility fee shall accrue at all times, including
at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met.

 

(b)          Term
Conversion Fee. If the Borrower exercises its option to convert outstanding Committed Loans into Term Loans pursuant to Section
2.01(b), then on the Term Conversion Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, an amount (the “Term Conversion Fee”)
equal to the product of (i) 0.75% multiplied by (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Committed Loans that are being converted
to Term Loans as of such date.

 

(c)          Other
Fees. The Borrower shall pay a fee to the Lender in the amount and at the time specified in the Fee Letter.

 

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

2.10         Computation
of Interest and Fees.

Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans (other than Base Rate Loans determined by reference to
the Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the
actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year
of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher yield to the payee thereof than a method based on
a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a
Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid
on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.

 

2.11         Evidence
of Debt.

 

The Credit Extensions made by the Lender shall
be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records
maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lender to
the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit
or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. Upon the request
of the Lender, its Loans may be evidenced by a Note, in addition to such accounts or records. The Lender may attach schedules to
its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of the applicable Loans and payments with respect
thereto.

 

2.12         Payments
Generally.

 

(a)          All
payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Lender at the Lender’s
Lending Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the date specified herein.
All payments received by the Lender after 12:00 noon, New York time, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day
and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

 

(b)          Subject
to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other
than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in
computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

 

(c)          If
at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Lender to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and
fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs and amounts
payable under Article III) incurred by the Lender, (ii) second, toward repayment of interest and fees then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (iii)
third, toward repayment of principal then due hereunder.

 

(d)          Nothing
herein shall be deemed to obligate the Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by the Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

2.13         Intentionally
Omitted.

 

2.14         Intentionally
Omitted.

 

2.15         Intentionally
Omitted.

 

2.16         Intentionally

Article
III

Taxes, Yield Protection and Illegality

 

3.01         Taxes.

 

(a)          Payments
Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

 

(i)          Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent
permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable
Laws require the Borrower or the Lender to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with
such Laws as determined by the Borrower or the Lender, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation
to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

 

(ii)         If
the Borrower or the Lender shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal
backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Borrower or the Lender shall withhold or make such
deductions as are determined by the Borrower or the Lender to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received
pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower or the Lender shall timely pay the full amount withheld or
deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or
deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary
so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding
or deduction been made.

 

(b)          Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely
pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.

 

(c)          Tax
Indemnifications.

 

(i)          Without
limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Lender
and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
withheld or deducted by the Borrower or the Lender or paid by the Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower
by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

    	 	35	 

     

    

 

(ii)         Without
limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Lender does hereby,
indemnify the Borrower and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes
and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements
of any counsel for the Borrower) incurred by or asserted against the Borrower by any Governmental Authority as a result of the
failure by the Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to
be delivered by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to subsection (e). The agreements in this clause (ii)
shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, the Lender, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

 

(d)          Evidence
of Payments.  Upon request by the Borrower or the Lender, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower
or by the Lender to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender
or the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or the Lender, as the case may be.

 

(e)          Status
of Lender; Tax Documentation.

 

(i)          The
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Borrower,
such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction
and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower to determine (A) whether or not payments made
hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction,
and (C) the Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all
payments to be made to the Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish the Lender’s status
for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction.

 

(ii)         Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States,

 

(A)         if
Lender is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code it shall deliver
to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which the Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form) or such other documentation
or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine that
the Lender is not subject to backup withholding or to determine whether or not the Lender is subject to information reporting requirements;
and

 

    	 	36	 

     

    

 

(B)         if
Lender is a Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding
tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document it shall deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies
as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes the lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or upon the request of the Borrower but only
if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

 

(1)         executed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty
to which the United States is a party,

 

(2)         executed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form),

 

(3)         executed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor form) and all required supporting documentation,

 

(4)         in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C)
of the Code and (y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form), or

 

(5)         executed
originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States
federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Borrower
to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

 

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

 

    	 	37	 

     

    

 

(iv)        The
Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed
exemption or reduction, (B) in the event any form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this Section 3.01(e)
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect or a Change in Law occurs requiring a change in such previously delivered
form or certification, deliver any such other properly completed and executed form, certification or documentation as may be required
in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of the Lender to an exemption from or a reduction in withholding Taxes with respect
to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Documents if the Lender continues to be so entitled, and (C) in the event the
Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of the Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) and (c),
take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, and as may be reasonably
necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction
that the Borrower make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to the Lender.

 

(f)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund
of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect
to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower,
upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Lender to make available its tax returns (or any
other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

    	 	38	 

     

    

 

3.02         Illegality.
If the Lender determines that any Law enacted, construed or announced after the Closing Date has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund
Eurodollar Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of the Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars
in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice
thereof by the Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base
Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise
to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from the Lender, prepay or,
if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if
the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay interest on
the amount so prepaid or converted. If any such Law, or change therein, shall only affect a portion of the Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement which is, in the opinion of the Lender, severable from the remainder of this Agreement so that the remainder
of this Agreement may be continued in full force and effect without otherwise affecting any of the obligations of the Borrower,
the Lender shall only declare its obligations under that portion so terminated. The Lender agrees to designate a different Lending
Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of the Lender, otherwise
be disadvantageous to the Lender.

 

3.03         Inability
to Determine Rates. If the Lender determines in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion
to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore Dollar market for
the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining
the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Lender will promptly notify the Borrower. Thereafter,
the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender revokes such notice.
Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may, without liability for any attendant breakage costs, revoke any pending request for
a Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request
into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Lender has made the determination described in clause (a) of the first sentence of this section, the Lender, in consultation
with the Borrower and the Lender, may establish an alternative interest rate for the affected Loans (the “Impacted Loans”),
in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Lender revokes the
notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this section, (2) the Lender notifies
the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding the Impacted
Loans, or (3) the Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it
is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to
such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has
imposed material restrictions on the authority of the Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Borrower written notice
thereof.

 

    	 	39	 

     

    

 

3.04         Increased
Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

(a)          If
the Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, or the Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase
in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or a reduction in the amount
received or receivable by the Lender in connection with such Loans (excluding for purposes of this subsection (a) any such
increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern),
(ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction
or any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which the Lender is organized or has its Lending Office, and (iii)
reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time upon demand of the Lender, the Borrower shall
pay to the Lender such additional amounts as will compensate the Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

 

(b)          If
the Lender determines that any Change in Law, or compliance by the Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the capital of the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender as a consequence of the Lender’s
obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and the Lender’s desired return
on capital), then from time to time upon demand of the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amounts as
will compensate the Lender for such reduction.

 

(c)          The
Borrower shall pay to the Lender, as long as the Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with
respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional costs on the unpaid principal
amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by the Lender (as determined
by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest
is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice of such additional
interest from the Lender. If the Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional
interest shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.

 

(d)          The
Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to reduce the amount it requests pursuant to this Section 3.04, including using
its reasonable efforts to not assign or transfer any Loan to any Person if such assignment or transfer would or would be likely
to increase the amount of such amounts payable; provided, however, the Lender shall have no obligation to take or
omit to take any action that the Lender in its good faith judgment believes would be disadvantageous to it. Each amount required
to be paid to the Lender pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender setting forth
in reasonable detail the amount owed, the basis therefor and the calculations in respect thereto.

 

(e)          Failure
or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s
right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to
this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation
therefor; provided further that, if the introduction of Law or change in (or change in interpretation of) Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

    	 	40	 

     

    

 

3.05         Funding
Losses. Upon demand of the Lender from time to time (which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender setting
forth in reasonable detail the amount demanded, the bases therefor and the calculations in respect thereto), the Borrower to whom
the subject Loan was made shall promptly compensate the Lender for and hold the Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense
incurred by it as a result of:

 

(a)          any
continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan made to such Borrower other than a Base Rate Loan or Daily Floating
Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic,
by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

 

(b)          any
failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of the Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert
any Loan made to the Borrower other than a Base Rate Loan or Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified
by the Borrower; or

 

(c)          any
assignment of a Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request
by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.15;

 

including any loss of anticipated profits and
any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable
to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged
by the Lender in connection with the foregoing.

 

For purposes of calculating
amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lender under this Section 3.05, the Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Fixed
Period Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing
in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Fixed Period
Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

 

3.06         Matters
Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

 

(a)          A
certificate of the Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and such other information as otherwise specified in this Article III shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution
methods customarily used by it in comparable circumstances.

(e)          The
Borrower is in compliance with all Laws, except to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each Loan Document has been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and does not and will not (a) violate the terms of any of the Borrower’s
Organization Documents, (b) result in any breach of, constitute a default under, or require, pursuant to the express provisions
thereof, the creation of any consensual Lien on the properties of the Borrower under, any Contractual Obligation to which the Borrower
is a party or any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority to which the Borrower or its property is subject,

of Property; Liens. Each of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries has good and defeasible title to, or valid leasehold
interests in, all material property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of its business, except for such defects in title

any applicable Environmental Laws indicating past or present treatment, storage or disposal of, or reporting a release or Hazardous
Materials into the environment where the circumstances surrounding such notice would reasonably be expected to have a Material

which are necessary under any applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their business, except to the extent that the failure to
possess, or be in compliance with, such authorizations would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

except (a) those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided
in accordance with GAAP, or (b) where failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Borrower has no actual knowledge of any proposed tax assessment from a Governmental Authority against it or any of its Subsidiaries
or Unrestricted Subsidiaries that would, if actually imposed, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Compliance.

 

No ERISA Event has occurred
or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other ERISA Events for which liability has occurred or is

one transaction or in a series of related transactions) all (or substantially all) of its assets, or all or substantially all of
the stock of or other equity interest in any of its Subsidiaries (in each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired), unless:
(i) at the time thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, and (ii) if the Borrower is involved in any such transaction, it is the surviving or resultant entity or the
recipient of any such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets, and if one or more Material Subsidiaries is involved
in any such transaction (and Borrower is not), a Material Subsidiary is the surviving or resultant entity or the recipient of any
such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets; provided, however, that in no event shall any such
merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition whether or not otherwise permitted by this Section 7.02
have the effect of releasing the Borrower from any of its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement.

7.03         Distributions.
During the existence of a Default which would become an Event of Default under clause (a), (f), or (g) of
Section 8.01 or a Default under Section 8.01(b) or 8.01(c) as a result of a breach of Section 7.09
or an Event of Default, the Borrower will not declare, pay or make any Distribution (in cash, property or obligations) on any interests
(now or hereafter outstanding) in the Borrower or apply any of its funds, property or assets to the purchase of any partnership
interests in the Borrower; provided that if the Borrower has declared a Distribution when no Default which would become
an Event of Default under clause (a), (f), or (g) of Section 8.01 or a Default under Section 8.01(b)
or 8.01(c) as a result of a breach of Section 7.09 or Event of Default exists, it shall be permitted to pay that
Distribution even if such Default or Event of Default exists on the corresponding payment date unless on such payment date and
prior to the making of such Distribution, the Borrower has knowledge that the maturity of all outstanding Obligations has been
accelerated pursuant to Section 8.02.

 

7.04         Change
in Nature of Business. Engage in any material line of business substantially different from those lines of business conducted
by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on the date hereof or, if substantially different therefrom, not permitted by the Borrower’s
partnership agreement.

 

7.05         Transactions
with Affiliates. Enter into any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower except upon fair and reasonable terms
that are no less favorable than those which might be obtained in arm’s-length transactions with a Person that is not an Affiliate;
provided, that such limitations shall not apply to any transaction among the Borrower, the Borrower’s Subsidiaries,
the General Partner, the General Partner’s Subsidiaries, and the Delegate (in its capacity as such), to subordinated loans
(including Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness) from an Affiliate to the Borrower, to a transaction between the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries and an Affiliate if such transaction has been approved by the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors
of the Delegate, or to the MEP IPO Transactions or to transactions entered into with any MEP Unrestricted Subsidiary on terms and
conditions, taken as a whole, that are fair and reasonable to the Borrower and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, taking into account
the totality of the relationship between the Borrower and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the MEP Unrestricted
Subsidiaries, on the other; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not purchase or prepay any
Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness unless after giving effect to such purchase or payment, the Borrower is in compliance with
Section 7.09 and such purchase or payment will not result in a Default or an Event of Default. For purposes of clarification
of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that the limitations contained in this Section 7.05 shall not limit the Delegate’s
authority to act or take actions on behalf of the General Partner.

 

    	 	52	 

     

    

 

7.06         Burdensome
Agreements. Enter into any material Contractual Obligation that by its express terms prohibits the Borrower or any Subsidiary
or Non-MEP Unrestricted Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist Liens on any material property of such Person to
secure the Obligations; or enter into any agreement (other than agreements of the type permitted by any of clauses (a) through
(i) of the definition of Intercompany Restrictions) restricting the ability of any Subsidiary to make any payments, directly or
indirectly, to the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary by way of distributions, loans, advances, repayments of loans or advances,
reimbursements of management and other intercompany charges, expenses and accruals or other returns on investments, or any other
agreement or arrangement which restricts the ability of any Subsidiary to make any payment, directly or indirectly to the Borrower
or a Material Subsidiary.

 

7.07         Use
of Proceeds. Use the proceeds of any Credit Extension, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally
or ultimately, to purchase or carry margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board) or to extend credit to others
for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock or to refund indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose.

 

7.08         Unrestricted
Subsidiaries; MEP.

 

(a)          Neither
the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary may guaranty or otherwise become liable in respect of any Indebtedness or other obligations
of, grant any Lien on any of its property to secure any Indebtedness of or other obligation of, or provide any other form of credit
support to, any Unrestricted Subsidiary, provided however that (i) the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary may grant
a Lien on the equity interests of an Unrestricted Subsidiary to secure Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and (ii) the
Borrower may provide credit support in the form of causing the issuance of Financial Support Agreement Letters of Credit and providing
Financial Support Agreement Parental Guaranties in accordance with the Financial Support Agreement for the benefit of Midcoast
Operating and its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries, provided that the Borrower shall not provide or cause to provide any additional
Financial Support Agreement Letters of Credit or any Financial Support Agreement Parental Guarantees, or cause to be amended any
existing Financial Support Agreement Letters of Credit or any existing Financial Support Agreement Parental Guaranties, if doing
so would cause the sum of the Financial Support Agreement Letter of Credit Amount plus the Financial Support Agreement Parental
Guarantee Amount to exceed $700,000,000, unless consented to by the Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

 

(b)          No
Unrestricted Subsidiary may, directly or indirectly, (i) make any loans or advances in the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary,
or (ii) hold any equity interests in the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, excluding any investment in a public fund which
holds securities of or otherwise makes investments in the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

 

(c)          The
Borrower shall continue at all times to (i) own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting equity interests of, and (ii)
have the right and ability, directly or indirectly, to elect at least a majority of the board of directors or other governing body
of, each general partner of MEP. As used in this subsection (c) the term “voting equity interests” of an entity means
equity interests entitled to vote for members of the board of directors or equivalent governing body of such entity.

 

    	 	53	 

     

    

 

7.09         Consolidated
Leverage Ratio. As of the end of each applicable four-quarter period, the Borrower shall maintain a ratio of (a) (i) Consolidated
Funded Debt plus, without duplication, (ii) the principal amount of Funded Debt owed by the Borrower to Subsidiaries
which does not constitute Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness, to (b) Pro Forma EBITDA of no greater than (1) during an Acquisition
Period, 5.50 to 1.00, and (2) during any period other than an Acquisition Period, 5.00 to 1.00; provided, that if at the
end of any such applicable four-quarter period the Borrower shall not have maintained such ratio, the Borrower will have a period
of 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer has knowledge that such ratio has not been satisfied at the end
of such period and 30 days following the end of such period, to cure such failure on a pro forma basis by satisfying the following
clauses (i) or (ii), or any combination of such clauses, by (i) obtaining an equity contribution which qualifies as equity under
GAAP or (ii) incurring Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness in a sufficient amount that (y) had the Borrower had such additional
equity or Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or a combination of both, at or prior to the end date of such applicable
four-quarter period, and (z) had such amount been included in, and increased, Pro Forma EBITDA with respect to such applicable
four-quarter period, the Borrower would have been in compliance with this Section 7.09 for such four-quarter period and,
if the Borrower obtains such equity or such Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or any combination thereof, during such
cure period, but in no event shall such period end later than 60 days following the end of the corresponding ending four-quarter
period, then it will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.09 as of the end of such four quarter period.

 

7.10         Indebtedness
of Non-OLP Subsidiaries. As of the end of each fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness of the Non-OLP Subsidiaries
(other than Non-OLP Inter-Company Indebtedness) shall not exceed an amount (the “Non-OLP Indebtedness Limitation”)
equal to 0.5 times Non-OLP Pro Forma EBITDA for the four quarters then ended; provided, that to the extent that such Indebtedness
of the Non-OLP Subsidiaries does exceed the Non-OLP Indebtedness Limitation (the amount of such excess being referred to this Section
7.10 as “excess Indebtedness”) at quarter-end, the Non-OLP Subsidiaries may cure such excess Indebtedness by satisfying
the following clause (i) or clause (ii), or any combination of such clauses, within 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible
Officer has knowledge of such non-compliance and 30 days following the end of such quarter (but in no event shall the cure period
extend beyond the date that is 60 days after the end of such quarter) (i) by receiving an infusion of cash or cash equivalents
in an amount that (when added to all other cash and cash equivalents then being held by Non-OLP Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section
7.10) equals such excess Indebtedness (or portion thereof cured pursuant to this clause (i)), which cash or cash equivalents
shall be held by Non-OLP Subsidiaries until the calculation is done pursuant to this Section 7.10 at the end of the next
quarter, or (ii) by reducing the aggregate outstanding amount of Indebtedness of the Non-OLP Subsidiaries by an amount equal to
such excess Indebtedness less the amount of cash or cash equivalents infused for such quarter-end pursuant to the preceding clause
(i), if any. If the Non-OLP Subsidiaries so timely cure such excess Indebtedness by making such infusion or reduction, or both
as applicable, the Non-OLP Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.10 as of such quarter-end
date.

 

    	 	54	 

     

    

 

7.11         Indebtedness
of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries. As of the end of each fiscal quarter, the aggregate
amount of Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries (other than OLP Inter-Company Indebtedness)
shall not exceed an amount (the “OLP Indebtedness Limitation”) equal to 60% of the outstanding consolidated
capitalization (calculated without regard to noncash adjustments to equity) of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership
Subsidiaries as of such quarter-end date; provided, that to the extent that outstanding Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership
and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries (other than OLP Inter-Company Indebtedness) does exceed the OLP Indebtedness Limitation
(the amount of such excess being referred to this Section 7.11 as “excess Indebtedness”) at quarter-end, the
Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries may cure such excess Indebtedness by satisfying the following
clause (i) or clause (ii), or any combination of such clauses, within 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer
has knowledge of such non-compliance and 30 days following the end of such quarter (but in no event shall the cure period extend
beyond the date that is 60 days after the end of such quarter): (i) by receiving an infusion of cash or cash equivalents in an
amount that (when added to all other cash and cash equivalents then being held by the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership
Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.11) equals such excess Indebtedness (or portion thereof cured pursuant to this clause
(i)), which cash or cash equivalents shall be held by the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries until
the calculation is done pursuant to this Section 7.11 at the end of the next quarter, or (ii) by reducing the aggregate
outstanding amount of Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries by an amount equal to
such excess Indebtedness less the amount of cash or cash equivalents infused for such quarter-end pursuant to the preceding proviso,
if any. If the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries so timely cure such excess Indebtedness by making
such infusion or reduction, or both as applicable, the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries shall be
deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.11 as of such quarter-end date.

disposal of any Hazardous Materials, (c) exposure to any Hazardous Materials, (d) the release or threatened release of any Hazardous
Materials into the environment or (e) any contract, agreement or other consensual arrangement pursuant to which liability is assumed
or imposed with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

    	 	60	 

     

    

 

“Hazardous Materials”
means all explosive or radioactive substances or wastes and all hazardous or toxic substances, wastes or other pollutants, including
petroleum or petroleum distillates, asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, polychlorinated biphenyls, radon gas, infectious
or medical wastes and all other substances or wastes of any nature regulated pursuant to any Environmental Law.

 

(b)          Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(c)          Waiver
of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall
assert, and each of them hereby waives, any claim against any of the other of them, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided however that the foregoing limitation shall not
be deemed to impair or affect the indemnification obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement to the extent such indemnification
obligations are with respect to losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person
that is neither an Indemnitee nor the Borrower. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended
recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications,
electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that
this sentence shall not be deemed to limit an Indemnitee’s obligations in Section 10.08.

 

(d)          Payments.
All amounts due from the Borrower under Section 10.04 or this Section 10.05 shall be payable not later than thirty
Business Days after demand therefor and the Borrower’s receipt of (i) the requesting Person’s certification that
it is owed amounts under Section 10.04 or Section 10.05(a), as the case may be, and the basis thereof, and (ii) reasonably
detailed invoices or statements relating thereto.

 

(e)          Survival.
The agreements in this Section shall survive the replacement of the Lender, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

 

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

 

    	 	61	 

     

    

 

10.07         Successors
and Assigns.

 

(a)          Successors
and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender and the Lender may not assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection
(b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section,
or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section
(and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed
or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated
hereby, the Related Parties of the Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)          Assignment
by Lender. The Lender may at any time assign to one assignee all, but not less than all of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall
be subject to the following conditions:

 

(i)          Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(ii)         Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(iii)        Required
Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment, except the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment,
or (2) such assignment is to an Affiliate of the Lender that is financially capable of performing the obligations of the Lender
under this Agreement.

 

(iv)        Assignment
and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Borrower an Assignment and Assumption.

 

(v)         No
Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

 

(vi)        No
Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

 

(vii)       Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(viii)      Intentionally
Omitted.

 

    	 	62	 

     

    

 

From and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and have the rights and
obligations of the Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective
date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. If
the assigning Lender holds a Note and has assigned all of its Commitment, it shall promptly deliver such Note to the Borrower marked
“Cancelled” or sign a lost note affidavit (which shall include customary indemnification of the Borrower) with respect
thereto (provided however that, notwithstanding herein to the contrary, failure to do so will not affect the validity
of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by the Lender of a participation in such rights
and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

 

(c)          Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(d)          Participations.
The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a
natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”)
in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement.

 

Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which the Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement
or instrument may provide that the Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other
modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e)
of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04
and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(e)
(it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender))
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this
Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as
though it were a Lender.

 

(e)          Limitations
upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04
or 3.05 than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

 

    	 	63	 

     

    

 

(f)          Certain
Pledges. The Lender may at any time assign, pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto; and provided, further,
all costs, fees and expenses related to, or in connection with, any such pledge or grant shall be for the sole account of the Lender.

 

(g)          Electronic
Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or
any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

 

10.08         Confidentiality.
The Lender (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates or its other Related Parties, and each of its and their directors,
officers, agents, attorneys, employees and representatives) agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ and other Related Parties’, directors,
officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to (and will agree
to) keep such Information confidential on the terms provided in this Section); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority;
(c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (and each such case,
such Person shall endeavor to notify the Borrower of such occurrence as soon as reasonably possible following the service of any
such process on such Person); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder
or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s
professional advisor) to any credit derivative, credit insurance transaction, or other substantially similar transaction relating
to the obligations of the Borrower, in each case, provided that each such Person first agrees to hold, and cause to be
held, such Information in confidence on the terms provided in this Section and such Person is not a competitor or Affiliate thereof
of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is engaged in the storage, transportation and/or distribution of hydrocarbons
as its primary business (and the Lender may rely on such Person’s representation as to the same); (g) with the consent of
the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
or (ii) becomes available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; or (i) to the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires
access to information about the Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued
with respect to the Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower after the date hereof, if such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery
as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered
to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality
of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

    	 	64	 

     

    

 

The Lender acknowledges
that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be,
(b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material
non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

 

10.09         Set-off.
In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lender provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, the Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being
waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, the Lender to or for the credit
or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations then due and owing to the Lender. The Lender agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by the Lender; provided, however, that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

 

10.10         Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to
be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum amount, or be computed at a rate that exceeds the maximum rate, of
non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lender shall contract for, charge,
receive, reserve or take interest in an amount or at a rate that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied
to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower, and in no event shall the Borrower
or any other Person ever be liable for unearned interest or ever be required to pay interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, received, reserved or taken by the Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, it
may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium
rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread
in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. If the Laws of the
State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the “Maximum Rate”, then that term means the “indicated
rate ceiling” from time to time in effect under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code. The Borrower agrees that Chapter 346
of the Texas Finance Code does not apply to any Borrowing.

 

10.11         Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

10.12         Integration.
This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control;
provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Lender in any other Loan Document shall not
be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties
thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

 

    	 	65	 

     

    

 

10.13         Survival
of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or
other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery
hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Lender, regardless of any investigation
made by the Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event
of Default at the time of any Credit Extension.

 

10.14         Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision
in any other jurisdiction.

 

10.15         Replacement
and Removal of Lender. (a) If (1) the Borrower has a right to remove or replace a Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(b)
or under any other circumstances set forth in this Agreement providing that the Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace
a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Lender, (i) remove the Lender by terminating the Lender’s
Commitment or (ii) replace the Lender by causing the Lender to assign its Commitment pursuant to Section 10.07(b) to an
Eligible Assignee procured by the Borrower. As a condition to the effectiveness of any such assignment or termination:

 

(w) in the event
of an assignment of the Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal
to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts),

 

(x) in the event
of a termination of the Lender’s Commitment which has not been assigned, pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other
amounts owing to the Lender through the date of termination or assignment (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section
3.05, which amounts shall be paid when billed in accordance with such Section), and (ii) provide written notice terminating
the Lender’s Commitment.

 

The Lender being replaced shall execute and
deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to the Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Credit Extensions. The Lender
shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in
the identity of the Lender and any adjustments of its Commitment resulting from any such removal or replacement.

 

(b)          Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(c)          Intentionally
Omitted.

 

(d)          This
section shall supersede any provision in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

 

    	 	66	 

     

    

 

10.16         Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue.

 

(a)          THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

 

(b)          any

OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. THE BORROWER AND the LENDER WAIVE PERSONAL
SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE.

 

10.17         Waiver
of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO IN EACH CASE
WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES
AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY
PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT
OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

    	 	67	 

     

    

 

10.18         No
Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including
in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges
and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lender, are arm’s-length
commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lender, and its Affiliates, on the other
hand, (B) it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate,
and (C) it is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated

and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor,
agent or fiduciary for any other party hereto, any Affiliates of any other party hereto, or any other Person and (B) none of the
Borrower, or the Lender has any obligation to each other or to their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Lender and its respective
Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its
Affiliates, and the Lender has no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and the Lender hereby waives and releases any claims that they may have against each
other with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction
contemplated hereby. The Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors
to the extent it has deemed appropriate.

applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.
