from time to time prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Lender prior irrevocable notice of such
election no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect
thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Lender prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the
proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Lender has determined in its sole discretion not to permit such conversions. 
 (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the
expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Lender, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the
length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Lender has determined in its sole discretion not to
permit such continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans
shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. 
 2.6 Limitations on Eurodollar
Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest 

  
 16 

 
Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each
Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than 5 Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

 (b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum
equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of the Loan shall not be paid when
due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a default rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loan, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on the Loan or any facility fee or any other fee payable (excluding any expenses or other indemnity) hereunder shall not be paid when due
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a default rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and
(ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 
 (d) Interest shall be
payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on
account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Lender at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately
available funds. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar
Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which
event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during
such extension. 
 2.8 Computation of Interest and Fees. 

(a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that,
with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest 

  
 17 

 
on which is calculated on the basis of the Base Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The
Lender shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as
of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Lender shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Lender pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall constitute prima facie evidence of
such amounts. The Lender shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Lender in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.7(a). 

2.9 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period the Lender shall have determined (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, the Lender
shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans,
(y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current
Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Lender, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans. 

2.10 Notes. The Borrower agrees that, upon the request by the Lender, the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver to Lender a
promissory note (a “Note”) of the Borrower evidencing the Loan (or any portion thereof), substantially in the form of Exhibit F, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount; provided, that delivery of
Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the occurrence of the Closing Date or the making of the Loan on the Closing Date. 
 2.11

(i) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the
definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on the Loan, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 

(ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
insurance charge or other similar insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans by, or any other acquisition of funds by, the Lender, which requirements are
generally applicable to advances, loans made by the Lender; or 

  
 18 

 (iii) impose on the Lender any other condition that is generally applicable to
loans made by the Lender or participations therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender by an amount that the
Lender deems to be material, of making, or maintaining the Loan, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Lender, within ten Business Days after its demand, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the
event by reason of which it has become so entitled; provided, however, that the Lender shall not be entitled to demand such compensation more than 90 days following the repayment of the Loan in respect of which such demand is
made. 
 (b) If the Lender shall have determined that a Change of Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements shall have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital or the capital of any corporation Controlling the Lender as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
such Change of Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by the Lender to the
Borrower of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the Lender to the Borrower shall constitute prima
facie evidence of such costs or amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date
that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to
include the period of such retroactive effect not to exceed twelve months. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive for 90 days after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other
amounts then due and payable hereunder. 
 2.12 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or
withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable laws. If any applicable laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrower) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower, then (A) the
Borrower shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Borrower to be required, (B) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such laws, and (C) to
the 

  
 19 

 
extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified 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 2.12) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 

(b) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 (c) The Borrower
shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section 2.12) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) (i) If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement, the
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or
at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine
whether or not the Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in Sections 2.12(d)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost
or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, 
 (A) from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Lender, if a U.S.
Person, will deliver to the Borrower, executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that the Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) any Foreign Lender, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, will 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 a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), whichever of the following is
applicable: 

  
 20 

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

(II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within
the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E, as applicable,; 
 (IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial
owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; or 
 (V)
notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.12(d), each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement, forms described in Sections
2.12(d)(ii)(B)(I), (II), (III) or (IV), as applicable, establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to amounts payable to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, that a Foreign Lender shall
not be required to deliver forms establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to amounts payable to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.12(d)(ii)(B)(V) to the extent that, due to a
Change of Law, such Foreign Lender is unable to do so. 

  
 21 

 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
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 a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed
by applicable law to permit the Borrower or to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 
 (D) 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 (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

 (iii) The Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.12 expires or
becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(e) If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of, or credit with respect to, any 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 2.12 (any such refund or credit, a “Tax Benefit”), it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal
to such Tax Benefit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.12 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such Tax Benefit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including
Taxes) incurred by the Lender, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Benefit), 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 Tax Benefit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender
would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such Tax Benefit had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the 

  
 22 

 
indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. 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. 
 (f) The agreements in
this Section 2.12 shall survive for one year after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

2.13 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lender for, and to hold the Lender harmless from, any loss (other than the
loss of Applicable Margin) or expense that the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by the Lender
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive for 90 days after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

2.14 Change of Lending Office. The Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section
2.11 or 2.12 with respect to the Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of the Lender) to designate another lending office for the Loan affected by such event with the object
of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole but reasonable judgment of the Lender, cause the Lender and its lending office to suffer no unreimbursed economic disadvantage or
any legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of the Lender pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.12. 

SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

To induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loan, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender, on the
Closing Date that: 
 3.1 Financial Condition. The audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date, reported on by Deloitte & Touche LLP, present fairly in all material respects the
consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. All such financial statements,
including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved. 

  
 23 

 3.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2015, there has been no development or event
that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed in the Specified Exchange Act Filings. 

3.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Borrower and its Significant Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (b) has the corporate power and corporate authority to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in
which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business
requires such qualification except to the extent that the failure to so qualify could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except for any Requirements of Law being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

3.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The Borrower has the corporate power and corporate authority to make, deliver
and perform the Loan Documents and to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. The Borrower has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and to authorize the extensions of credit
on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder
or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (other than the Indenture), except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices which have been obtained or made and
are in full force and effect, (ii) any consent, authorization or filing that may be required in the future the failure of which to make or obtain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) applicable
regulatory requirements (including the approval of the CPUC) prior to foreclosure under the Indenture (to the extent that there is any pledge of property under or pursuant to the Indenture). This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document upon
execution and delivery will be, duly executed and delivered. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (x) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, laws of general application
related to the enforceability of securities secured by real estate and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law) and (y) applicable regulatory requirements (including the approval of the
CPUC) prior to foreclosure under the Indenture (to the extent that there is any pledge of property under or pursuant to the Indenture). 

3.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowing of the
Loan hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate in any material respect any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require,

  
 24 

 
the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than any Lien created
hereunder). 
 3.6 Litigation. 

(a) No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, threatened in writing by or against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or against any of their respective material properties or revenues with respect to any of the Loan Documents. 

(b) No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, threatened in writing by or against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or against any of their material respective properties or revenues, except as disclosed in the Specified Exchange Act Filings, that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 3.7 No Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 3.8 Taxes. The Borrower and each of its Significant Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all federal and state
returns of income and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes and all other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or with respect to any claims or
assessments for taxes made against it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than (i) any amounts the validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (ii) claims which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). No material
tax Liens have been filed against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries other than (A) Liens for taxes which are not delinquent or (B) Liens for taxes which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect
to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, as applicable. 

3.9 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for “buying” or “carrying” any
“margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. 

3.10 ERISA. No Reportable Event has occurred during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or
deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except, in each case, to the extent that any such Reportable Event or failure to comply with the applicable provisions of ERISA or
the Code could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. During the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, there has been no (i) failure to make a required contribution
to any Plan that would result 

  
 25 

 
in the imposition of a lien or other encumbrance or the provision of security under Section 430 of the Code or Section 303 or 4068 of ERISA, or the arising of such a lien or encumbrance; or (ii)
“unpaid minimum required contribution” or “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined or otherwise set forth in Section 4971 of the Code or Part 3 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA), whether or not waived, except, in each case,
to the extent that such event could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The
present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed
the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial
withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely
preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent. 

3.11 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. The Borrower is not an “investment company”, or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. On the date hereof, the Borrower is not subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than
(a) Regulation X of the Board and (b) Sections 701, 817-830, and 851 of the California Public Utilities Code) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness under this Agreement. 

3.12 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan shall be used for general corporate purposes, including repaying commercial paper.

 3.13 Environmental Matters. Except as disclosed in the Specified Exchange Act Filings, the Borrower and its Significant
Subsidiaries do not have liabilities under Environmental Laws or relating to Materials of Environmental Concern that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, there are no facts,
circumstances or conditions that could reasonably be expected to give rise to such liabilities. 
 3.14 Regulatory Matters. Solely by
virtue of the execution, delivery and performance of, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Lender shall not be or become subject to regulation (a) under the FPA or (b) as a “public utility”
or “public service corporation” or the equivalent under any Requirement of Law. 
 3.15 Sanctions. To the Borrower’s
knowledge, none of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, or any director, officer, agent, Affiliate or employee of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is currently the subject of any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets
Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”); and the Borrower will not use the 

  
 26 

 
proceeds of the Loan, or knowingly lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, Affiliate, joint venture partner or other person or entity, to fund the activities
of any person currently the subject of any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

further, that neither the Borrower nor any Significant Subsidiary shall be required to disclose to the Lender or its agents or representatives any information which is subject to the attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product privilege

 31 

 (e) the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall (i) default in making any
payment of any principal of any Indebtedness (including any Guarantee Obligation, but excluding the Loan) on the due date with respect thereto (after giving effect to any period of grace, if any, provided in the instrument or agreement under which
such Indebtedness was created); or (ii) default in making any payment of any interest on any such Indebtedness beyond the period of grace, if any, provided in the instrument or agreement under which such Indebtedness was created; or
(iii) default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or condition relating to any such Indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur or
condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or (in the case of all Indebtedness other than Indebtedness under any Swap Agreement) to permit the holder or beneficiary of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or
agent on behalf of such holder or beneficiary) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or (in the case of any such Indebtedness constituting a Guarantee Obligation) to become
payable; provided, that a default, event or condition described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph (e) shall not at any time constitute an Event of Default unless, at such time, one or more defaults, events or conditions
of the type described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph (e) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to Indebtedness the outstanding principal amount of which exceeds in the aggregate $200,000,000; provided
further, that unless payment of the Loan hereunder has already been accelerated, if such default shall be cured by the Borrower or such Significant Subsidiary or waived by the holders of such Indebtedness and any acceleration of maturity having
resulted from such default shall be rescinded or annulled, in each case, in accordance with the terms of such agreement or instrument, without any modification of the terms of such Indebtedness requiring the Borrower or such Significant Subsidiary
to furnish security or additional security therefor, reducing the average life to maturity thereof or increasing the principal amount thereof, or any agreement by the Borrower or such Significant Subsidiary to furnish security or additional security
therefor or to issue in lieu thereof Indebtedness secured by additional or other collateral or with a shorter average life to maturity or in a greater principal amount, then any Default hereunder by reason thereof shall be deemed likewise to have
been thereupon cured or waived; or 
 (f) (i) the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall commence any case, proceeding
or other action (A) under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or seeking
to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its debts, or (B) seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee,
custodian, conservator or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, or the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (ii) there
shall be commenced against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries any case, proceeding or other action of a nature referred to in clause (i) above that (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication
or appointment or (B) remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 60 days; or 

  
 32 

 
(iii) there shall be commenced against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries any case, proceeding or other action seeking issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution,
distraint or similar process against all or any substantial part of its assets that results in the entry of an order for any such relief that shall not have been vacated, discharged, or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the
entry thereof; or (iv) the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries shall generally not, or shall be unable to, or shall admit in writing its inability to, pay its debts as they become due; or

to have a trustee appointed to administer any Plan and such proceedings shall continue undismissed or unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 days, but only if any such event could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect; or 
 (h) one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries by a court
of competent jurisdiction involving in the aggregate a liability (not paid or, subject to customary deductibles, fully covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has not denied coverage) of $200,000,000 or more, and all such
judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 45 days from the entry thereof unless, in the case of a discharge, such judgment or decree is due at a later date in one or more payments and the
Borrower or such Subsidiary satisfies the obligation to make such payment or payments on or prior to the date such payment or payments become due in accordance with such judgment or decree; or 

(i) there shall have occurred a Change of Control; 

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above
with respect to the Borrower, the Loan (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default,
the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loan (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become
due and payable. Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 

SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS 

8.1 Amendments and Waivers. (a) So long as no Multi Lender Event has occurred and is continuing: Neither this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in a writing executed by the Borrower and the Lender. No term of this Agreement may be waived unless such waiver is in a writing executed
by the waiving party. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lender and all future holders of the Loan. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower and the Lender shall be
restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default
or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 33 

 (b) If a Multi Lender Event has occurred and is continuing: Neither this Agreement nor any terms
hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.1(b). The Required Lenders and the Borrower may, from time to time, (i) enter into written amendments, supplements or
modifications hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrower hereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders may specify in
such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall: 

(A) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of the Loan (or any portion thereof), reduce
the stated rate of any interest payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or extend the
scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

(B) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 8.1(b) without the written consent of such
Lender; 
 (C) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders without the written consent of all
Lenders; or 
 (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 1(d) related to pro rata treatment without the
consent of each Lender directly affected thereby. 
 Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally
to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders and all future holders of the Loan. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower and the Lenders shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 

8.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by
telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered during the recipient’s normal business hours, or three Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid,

(c) to pay, indemnify, and hold the Lender and its officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether brought by the Borrower or any other Person (i) with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement and performance of this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loan or (ii) with respect to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the
operations of the Borrower and its Significant Subsidiaries or any of the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by the Borrower and its Significant Subsidiaries and the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel in connection
with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower under any Loan Document (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation
hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined in a final judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Significant Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Significant
Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor, subject to the Borrower’s

as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Lender. The agreements in this Section 8.5 and all amounts due under this Section 8.5 shall survive for two years after the termination of this Agreement and repayment of
the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section 8.5 shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses arising from non-Tax claims. 

8.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) the Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 8.6. 

  
 36 

 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, the Lender may
assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) other than any natural person, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of the Loan at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an
assignment to an Eligible Assignee that is an Affiliate of the Lender or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person, and provided further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such
assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Lender within fifteen (15) Business Days after having received notice thereof from the assigning Lender; 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to an Eligible Assignee that is an Affiliate of the Initial Lender or an assignment of
the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loan, the amount of the Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall not be
less than $10,000,000 (or, if such assignee is an Eligible Assignee that is an Affiliate of the Lender, $5,000,000) unless the Borrower otherwise consents, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) with respect to the Initial Lender, such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of the Initial Lender and any Affiliate of the Initial Lender that is an Eligible Assignee; and 

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Lender an Assignment and Assumption. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 and 8.5 but shall be subject to the limitations set forth therein).
Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 8.6 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 paragraph (c) of this Section. 

  
 37 

 (iv) The Initial Lender, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and
such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Initial Lender, each Assignee and the
principal amount of the Loan owing to, the Initial Lender and each Assignee pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the
Borrower and the Initial Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Initial Lender and any Assignee, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee and any
written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Initial Lender shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) (i) The Lender may, without the
consent of the Borrower, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loan owing to it); provided that (A) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) the Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the Borrower for the performance of such obligations and (C) 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 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 may provide that the Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) forgives the principal amount or extends the final scheduled date of maturity of the Loan, reduces the
stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section,
the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.12 and 2.13 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. 

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.11 or 2.12 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 to
such greater payments. Any Participant that is a Foreign Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.12 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.12(d). 

  
 38 

 (iii) If the Lender sells any participation it shall, acting solely for this
purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loan and other Obligations
under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall have no obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information
relating to a Participant’s interest in the Loan and other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other Obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner
of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 
 (d) The Lender may at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of the Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having
jurisdiction over the Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release the Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for the Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice
from the Lender, agrees to issue a promissory note or promissory notes to the Lender to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above. 

8.7 Adjustments; Set off. 

(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to the Initial Lender or a particular Assignee,
if the Initial Lender or any Assignee (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it hereunder, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by
set off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 7(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by the Initial Lender or any other Assignee (a “Non-Benefitted
Lender”), if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such Non-Benefitted Lender hereunder, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the Non-Benefitted Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing
to each Non-Benefitted Lender hereunder, or shall provide the Non-Benefitted Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably
among the Benefit Lender and the Non-Benefitted Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the
purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of
the Lender provided by law, including other rights of set-off, the Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any 

  
 39 

 
such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise), after any applicable grace period, to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits,
indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Lender or any branch, Affiliate or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower. 
 8.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number
of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery
of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Lender. 

8.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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 hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 8.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire
agreement of the Borrower and the Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Lender relative to the subject matter hereof or thereof not expressly set
forth or referred to herein or therein. 
 8.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.

thereto; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall
