			Revolving Loans, the Effective Amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall not at any time exceed the combined Commitments; and provided further that the Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans, together with all Term Loans outstanding at such time, of any Lender shall not at any time exceed such Lender’s Commitment.  Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.1, prepay under Section 3.3 and reborrow under this Section 2.1.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			2.2Term Loan Facility.  Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make Loans to the Borrower during the period from the Closing Date to June 2, 2017, in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Commitment.  The Borrower from time to time may borrow under the Term Loan Facility (and may reborrow any amount theretofore prepaid) until close of business on June 2, 2017, for a term not to exceed 364 days from the date of the Borrowing.  Each such loan under the Term Loan Facility (a "Term Loan") shall be in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 and shall become due and payable on the last day of the term selected by the Borrower for such Term Loan (the "Term Loan Maturity Date"), which shall in no event be later than 364 days from the date of such Term Loan.  The maximum availability under the Term Loan Facility shall be the amount of the Credit minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and Term Loans made by the Lenders; provided,  however, that to the extent the proceeds of a Term Loan are used to repay an outstanding Revolving Loan (or a portion thereof), such Revolving Loan (or portion thereof) shall not be considered part of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans made by the Lenders for purposes of this sentence (such maximum availability hereafter being referred to as the "Term Loan Availability").  Under no circumstances shall the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and Revolving Loans made by the Lenders exceed the Credit, and under no circumstances shall any Lender be obligated (i) to make any Term Loan (nor may the Borrower reborrow any amount heretofore prepaid) after June 2, 2017, or (ii) to make any Term Loan in excess of the Term Loan Availability.  Each Term Loan made hereunder shall fully and finally mature and be due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date specified in the Borrowing Advice for such Term Loan; provided,  however, that to the extent the Borrowing Advice for any Term Loan selects an Interest Period that expires before the Term Loan Maturity Date specified in such Borrowing Advice, the Borrower may from time to time select additional interest rate options and Interest Periods (none of which shall extend beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date for such Term Loan) by delivering a Borrowing Advice or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as applicable.

The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so 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.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Each Revolving Note and Term Note requested at least five Business Days prior to the date hereof shall be dated the date hereof and shall be delivered in accordance with Section 4.1(a).   Each other Revolving Note and Term Note shall be dated, and shall be delivered to each requesting Lender, not later than ten Business Days after the request therefor is delivered to the Borrower; provided that any failure to timely deliver any Note shall not constitute a Default hereunder and shall not excuse any Lender from the performance of its funding obligations hereunder.  Each Lender shall, and is hereby authorized by the Borrower to, endorse on the schedule contained on the Revolving Note and Term Note, or on a continuation of such schedule attached thereto and made a part thereof, appropriate notations regarding the Revolving Loans and Term Loans evidenced by such Note as specifically provided therein and such Lender’s record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided,  however, that the failure to make, or error in making, any such notation shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Note and Term Note.  The Agent, by notice to the Borrower (to be given not later than two Business Days prior to the initial Borrowing or Term Loan hereunder) may request that Revolving Loans or Term Loans made hereunder for which the interest calculation is to be based on the Eurodollar Rate be evidenced by separate Revolving Notes (in the case of Revolving Loans) and Term Notes (in the case of Term Loans), substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto (in the case of Revolving Loans) and Exhibit A-2 hereto (in the case of Term Loans), payable to the order of each Lender for the account of its office, branch or affiliate it may designate as its Lending Office.

			(d)       After giving effect to any Borrowing, there may not be more than ten (10) different Interest Periods in effect.

			With respect to any Borrowing having an Interest Period ending on or before June 2, 2017, if prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such Borrowing the Borrower fails timely to provide a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 2.5, such Borrowing shall, on the last day of the then-existing Interest Period for such Borrowing, automatically convert into a Base Rate Loan.  In the event of any such automatic conversion, the Borrower on the date of such conversion shall be deemed to make a representation and warranty to the Lenders that, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, (i) neither the Borrower nor any Bank Subsidiary is in violation of the capital requirements as described in Section 6.6, (ii) the Broker Subsidiary is not in violation of minimum net capital requirements as described in Section 7.1, (iii) the Borrower’s Consolidated Stockholders' Equity is not below the Minimum Stockholders' Equity as described in Section 7.2, and (iv) no amount owing with respect to any Commitment Fee, any outstanding Borrowing, or any interest thereon, or any other amount hereunder, is due and unpaid.

			(c)       If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower has failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans, or if any Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Eurodollar Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(d)       The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, or, if no timely notice is provided by the Borrower, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion.  All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans with respect to which the notice was given as held by each Lender.

The Borrower may select for any Eurodollar Rate Loan the Interest Period (as defined in the next sentence) for each Borrowing, it being understood that the Borrower may request multiple Borrowings on the same day and may select a different Interest Period for each such Borrowing.  An Interest Period shall be each period, as selected by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, beginning on the Borrowing Date of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on the Conversion/Continuation Date on which any Loan is converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, and ending on the date specified by the Borrower that is one, two, three or six months thereafter; provided that whenever the first day of any Interest Period occurs on a day of an initial calendar month for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month that succeeds such initial calendar month by the number of months equal to the number of months in such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such succeeding calendar month; and provided further that if the last day of an Interest Period would be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, unless such next succeeding Business Day is in a different calendar month, in which case such interest period shall end on the next preceding Business Day; but provided,  however, that (i) no Interest Period applicable to any Revolving Loan shall extend beyond the Revolving Termination Date; and (ii) no Interest Period applicable to any Term Loan shall extend beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date specified in the Borrowing Advice for such Term Loan, which in no event shall be later than June 1, 2018.

			2.7Interest Rates.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       (i) Each Revolving Loan, while outstanding, shall bear interest from the applicable Borrowing Date at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be, (and subject to the Borrower’s right to convert to other Types of Loans under Section 2.5) plus the Applicable Margin.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(ii)  Each Term Loan, while outstanding, shall bear interest from the applicable Borrowing Date at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be, (and subject to the Borrower’s right to convert to other Types of Loans under Section 2.5) plus the Applicable Margin.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)       Interest on each Revolving Loan and Term Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.  Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of Loans under Section 3.3 for the portion of the Loan so prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof, and, during the existence of any Event of Default interest shall be paid on demand of the Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

			2.8Substitute Rates.  If upon receipt by the Agent of a Borrowing Advice relating to any Borrowing or of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       the Agent shall determine that by reason of changes affecting the London interbank market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Eurodollar Rate with respect to any Interest Period; or
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)       the Agent shall determine that by reason of any change since the date hereof in any applicable law or governmental regulation (other than any such change in the regulations described in the definition of Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage in Section 1 hereof), guideline or order (or any interpretation thereof), the adoption or enactment of any new law or governmental regulation or order or any other circumstance affecting the Lenders or the London interbank market, the Eurodollar Rate shall no longer represent the effective cost to the Lenders of U.S. dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant period; or
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(c)       Agent shall determine that, as a result of any change since the date hereof in any applicable law or governmental regulation or as a result of the adoption of any new applicable law or governmental regulation, the applicable Eurodollar Rate would be unlawful; or
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(d)       the applicable Reuters screen (or any successor page of such service, or any successor or substitute for such service, as provided in the definition herein for Eurodollar Base Rate) is unavailable and fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to the Agent for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any Eurodollar Rate Loans, after the Agent has requested such information;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			then, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender, whereupon, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders revokes such notice in writing.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it and, at its election, submit a Borrowing Advice or Notice of Conversion/Continuation selecting another Type of Loan.  If the Borrower does not revoke such Notice or give a Notice as provided herein, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Eurodollar Rate Loans.

			2.9Fees.

			(a)       Arrangement, Agency Fees.  The Borrower shall pay an arrangement fee to the Arrangers for their respective accounts, and shall pay an agency fee to the Agent for the Agent’s account, as required by the separate letter agreements ("Fee Letters")

			between the Borrower and each of the Arrangers and between the Borrower and the Agent, each dated May 3, 2016.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)       Commitment Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the "Commitment Fee") on the actual daily unused portion of such Lender’s Commitment computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter based upon the daily utilization for that quarter as calculated by the Agent, equal to seven one hundredths of one percent (0.07%) per annum.  For purposes of calculating utilization under this subsection, the Commitments shall be deemed used to the extent of the Effective Amount of Revolving Loans and Term Loans then outstanding.  Such Commitment Fee shall accrue from the Closing Date to the Revolving Termination Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each quarter commencing on the quarter ending June 30, 2016 through the Revolving Termination Date, with the final payment to be made on the Revolving Termination Date; provided that, in connection with any reduction or termination of Commitments under Section 2.10, the accrued commitment fee calculated for the period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of such reduction or termination, with the following quarterly payment being calculated on the basis of the period from such reduction or termination date to such quarterly payment date.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(c)       Term Loan Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a term loan fee (the "Term Out Fee") equal to one percent (1.00%) of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on June 2, 2017, payable on such date.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			2.10Reduction of Credit.  The Borrower, from time to time, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Agent, may terminate the commitments, or permanently reduce the Commitments by an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000, without penalty or premium; unless after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans and Term Loans together would exceed the amount of the combined Commitments then in effect.  Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the Commitments may not be increased.  Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to each Lender’s Commitment according to its Pro Rata Share.  All accrued Commitment Fees to, but not including, the effective date of any reduction or termination of Commitments, shall be paid on the effective date of such reduction or termination.  During the continuation of the Credit, the computation of the Commitment Fee and the Lenders’ obligations to make Revolving Loans or Term Loans shall be based upon such reduced Commitments.  In the event the Credit shall be reduced to zero pursuant to this Section, the Credit shall be deemed terminated, and any Commitment Fee or any other amount payable hereunder then accrued shall become immediately payable.  Such termination of the Credit shall terminate the Borrower’s obligations with respect to the Commitment Fee to the extent not theretofore accrued and shall terminate the Lenders’ obligations to make any further Revolving Loans or Term Loans under this Agreement.

			2.11Termination Date; Extensions.  The termination date of each Lender’s Commitment with respect to the Credit (the "Termination Date"), including both the Revolving Credit Facility under Section 2.1 hereof and the Term Loan Facility under Section 2.2 hereof, is initially June 2, 2017.  At any time no earlier than forty-five (45) days and no later than thirty

			(30) days prior to the Termination Date then in effect (whether the initial Termination Date of June 2, 2017 or any later Termination Date as extended under this Section 2.11), the Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, request that the Termination Date be extended for a period of 364 calendar days.  Such request shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower.  In no event will any Lender agree to approve any extension more than thirty (30) days before the Termination Date then in effect.  Failure of any Lender to respond shall mean that such Lender has not approved such extension.  If each Lender (in its sole discretion) agrees to so extend its Commitment and the Termination Date (which agreement may be given or withheld in such Lender's sole and absolute discretion), the Agent shall evidence such agreement by executing and returning to the Borrower a copy of the Borrower’s written request no later than fifteen (15) days after the Agent’s receipt of the Borrower’s written request.  If the Agent fails to so respond to and accept the Borrower’s request for extension of the Termination Date then in effect, the Lenders’ Commitments shall be terminated on the Termination Date then in effect.  If, on the other hand, the Agent so responds to and accepts the Borrower’s request for extension of the Termination Date, then upon receipt by the Borrower of a copy of the Borrower’s written request countersigned by the Agent, (i) the Lenders’ Commitments then in effect and the Termination Date then in effect shall automatically be extended for the 364-day period specified in such written request, and (ii) each reference in this Agreement to "June 2, 2017", and "June 1, 2018" (and any prior extension thereof pursuant to this Section 2.11) also shall automatically be correspondingly extended for 364 days.

			2.12Payments by the Lenders to the Agent.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       Unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Closing Date, at least one Business Day before the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or, in the case of a Base Rate Loan, prior to noon (12:00) San Francisco time on the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent for the account of the Company the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing Date and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds and the Agent in such circumstances has made a corresponding amount available to the Borrower such Lender shall on the Business Day following such Borrowing Date make such amount available to the Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period.  A notice of the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement.  If such amount is not made available to the Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing Date, the Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Agent for the Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

			(b)       The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on any Borrowing Date.

			2.13Sharing of Payments, Etc..  If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participation in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided,  however, (a) that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered and (b) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.5) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  The Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participation purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchase or repayment.

			(a)       All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Citibank N.A.'s "Base Rate" shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of interest, and all computation of fees under subsection 2.9(b) and (c) shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed.  Interest and such fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from and including the first day thereof to and excluding the last day thereof.
		

		
			(b)       Each Reference Bank may, if requested by the Agent, furnish to the Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurodollar Base Rate.  If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Agent for the purpose of determining any such interest rate, the Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks, subject to the provisions of Section 2.8.  The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders

			2.15Defaulting Lenders.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(i)        Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(ii)       Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(iii)      Certain Fees.  No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender

			(b)       Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,  further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

			3.1Repayment.

Each notice of payment shall specify the date and aggregate principal amount of any such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be repaid.  The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such Notice and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment.  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, together with all accrued interest to each such date on the amount prepaid, and any amounts required in accordance with Section 3.7 hereof as a result of such prepayment.

			3.4Taxes/Net Payments.  All payments by Borrower hereunder and under any Revolving Note and Term Note to the Agent or any Lender shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and in such amounts as may be necessary in order that all such payments, after deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties or other charges of whatsoever nature imposed by any Governmental Authority or taxing authority thereof (collectively, "Taxes"), shall not be less than the amounts otherwise specified to be paid under this Agreement. The Borrower shall pay all Taxes when due and shall promptly send to the Lender original tax receipts or copies thereof certified by the relevant taxing authority together with such other documentary evidence with respect to such payments as may be required from time to time by the Agent.  If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes to the appropriate taxing authorities when due or fails to remit to the Agent or Lender any such original tax receipts or certified copies thereof as aforesaid or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent or Lender within thirty (30) days of demand by the Lender or Agent for any taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Agent or Lender as a result of such failure.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any tax on or measured by the net income of any Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction where an office of such Lender making any loan hereunder is located or does business, and (ii) the foregoing obligation to gross up the payments to any Lender so as not to deduct or offset any withholding taxes or Taxes paid or payable by the Borrower with respect to any payments to such Lender shall not apply (x) to any payment to any Lender which is a "foreign corporation, partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code if such Lender is not, on the date hereof (or on the date it becomes a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to the assignment terms of this Agreement), or on any date hereafter that it is a Lender under this Agreement, entitled to submit either a Form W-8BEN or any successor form thereto (relating to such Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all interest to be received by it hereunder in respect of the Loans) or Form W-8ECI or any successor form thereto (relating to all interest to be received by such Lender hereunder in respect of the Loans) of the U.S. Department of Treasury, (y) to any item referred to in the preceding sentence that would not have been imposed but for the failure by such Lender to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections of such Lender with the United States if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States as a precondition to relief or exemption from such item or (z) to any taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA.

			3.5Illegality.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default".  The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.  The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 8;  provided,  however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share, of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein to

Citibank and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Citibank were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Citibank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to its Loans, Citibank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent.

			9.9Successor Agent.  The Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, resign as Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders and Borrower.  If the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders, with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders which successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated.  After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.  If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.  The retiring Agent shall refund to Borrower that portion of any agency fee paid to such Agent as is not earned due to such Agent’s resignation, prorated to the date of such Agent’s resignation.

			(ii)       if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor form thereto before the payment of any interest is due in the first taxable year of such Lender and before the payment of any interest in any subsequent calendar year during which the Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) then in effect expires; and

			(iii)      such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)       If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form W-8BEN and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Company to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Company to such Lender.  To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender's IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor form thereto as no longer valid.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(c)       If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor form thereto with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Company to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(d)       If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction.  If the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent or if any Lender which is a "foreign corporation, partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code is not entitled to claim exemption from or a reduction of U.S. withholding tax under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Code, then the Agent shall withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

			(e)       If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a

			(b)       All such notices, requests and communications shall, when transmitted by overnight delivery, faxed or e-mailed, be effective when delivered for overnight (next-day) delivery, transmitted in legible form by facsimile machine (provided that the sender has retained its facsimile machine-generated confirmation of the receipt of such fax by the recipient's facsimile machine) or transmitted by e-mail (provided that the e-mail was sent to the e-mail address provided by the recipient and that the e-mail was not returned to the sender as undeliverable), respectively, or if mailed, upon the third Business Day after the date deposited into the U.S. mail, or if delivered, upon delivery; except that notices pursuant to Section 2 or 9 shall not be effective until actually received by the Agent.

The Borrower and each of the Lenders acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" and (iii) neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Communications or the Platform (provided, as to such disclaimer, that the Agent and its Affiliates have not been grossly negligent or engaged in any willful misconduct in respect of the Platform).

In connection with any claim, demand, action or cause of action relating to the enforcement, preservation or exercise of any rights or remedies covered by this Section 10.4 against the Borrower, all Lenders shall be represented by the same legal counsel selected by such Lenders; provided, that if such legal counsel determines in good faith that representing all such Lenders would or could result in a conflict of interest under laws or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel or that a claim is available to a Lender that is not available to all such Lenders, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of interest or to permit an unqualified assertion of such a claim, each Lender shall be entitled to separate representation by legal counsel selected by that Lender, with all such legal counsel using reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort by counsel for all Lenders.

If requested by Borrower in writing, such Indemnified Person shall in good faith contest the validity, applicability and amount of such claim, demand, action or cause of action and shall permit Borrower to participate in such contest.  Any Indemnified Person that proposes to settle or compromise any claim or proceeding for which Borrower may be liable for payment of indemnity hereunder shall give Borrower written notice of the terms of such proposed settlement or compromise reasonably in advance of settling or compromising such claim or proceeding and shall obtain Borrower’s prior consent.

In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent, and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Immediately upon each Assignee's making its processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom.  The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assignor Lender pro tanto.

Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing or anywhere else in this Agreement, (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, and (iii)

Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral (if any), or obtain provisional remedies.  The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

						$____________________ (Amount of Commitment)

					
					
						Date:  June 3, 2016

				

		
			﻿
		

		
			For Value Received, The Charles Schwab Corporation ("Schwab") hereby promises to pay to the order of ________________ (the "Lender") to Citibank, N.A., as Agent, at Agent’s office located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York  10013, for the account of the applicable Lending Office of the Lender, the principal amount of ____________________ ($___________) or the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans made to Schwab by the Lender, whichever is less, on June 2, 2017.  The undersigned also promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Borrowing from the date of such Borrowing until such principal amount is paid, at the rates per annum, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement.  This Note shall be subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and all principal and interest payable hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Schwab hereby authorizes the Lender to endorse on the Schedule attached to this Note the amount and Type of Revolving Loans made to Schwab by the Lender and all renewals, conversions, and payments of principal amounts in respect of such Revolving Loans, which endorsements shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding principal amount of all such Revolving Loans, provided,  however, that the failure to make such notation with respect to any Revolving Loans or payments shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Schwab under the Credit Agreement or this Note.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			This Note is the Revolving Note referred to in the Credit Agreement (364-Day Commitment), dated as of June 3, 2016 among Schwab, the Lender, certain other Lenders party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as Agent for the Lenders (the "Credit Agreement").  Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meanings.  The Credit Agreement, among other things, contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity of this Note, upon the happening of certain stated events and also for prepayments on account of the principal of this Note prior to the maturity of this Note upon the terms and conditions specified in the Credit Agreement.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Principal and interest payments shall be in money of the United States of America, lawful at such times for the satisfaction of public and private debts, and shall be in immediately available funds.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Schwab promises to pay the costs of collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees, if default is made in the payment of this Note.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			The terms and provisions of this Note shall be governed by the applicable laws of the State of California.
		

		

		

		 

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		
		

		
			IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Note to be executed by its officers thereunto duly authorized and directed by appropriate corporate authority.

						and the Lenders party thereto

				

		
			﻿
		

		
			Ladies and Gentlemen:
		

		
			This opinion is delivered at the request of The Charles Schwab Corporation to you in your capacity as Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, under the Credit Agreement (364-Day Commitment) dated as of June 3, 2016 (the "Credit Agreement") among The Charles Schwab Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), Citibank, N.A., as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders signatories thereto (each a "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders").  This opinion letter speaks as of close of business on June 3, 2016 (hereafter the "operative date").
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			We have acted as special counsel to Borrower in connection with the Credit Agreement.  In such capacity we have examined originals, or copies represented to us by Borrower to be true copies, of the Credit Agreement; and we have obtained such certificates of such responsible officials of Borrower and of public officials as we have deemed necessary for purposes of this opinion.  We have assumed without investigation the genuineness of all signatures on original documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as photostatic copies of originals, and the accuracy and completeness of all corporate records certified to us by the Borrower to be accurate and complete.  We have further assumed that the Credit Agreement is binding upon and enforceable against the Agent and the Lenders.  As to factual matters, we have relied upon the representations and warranties contained in and made pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given for such terms in the Credit Agreement.  For the purpose of this opinion, "Loan Documents" as used herein means the Credit Agreement and the Notes.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the exceptions and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			1.Borrower is a corporation duly formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of Delaware.
		

		

		

		 

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		
		

		
			2.Borrower has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under the Loan Documents.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			3.Each Loan Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower.  Each Loan Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as such validity, binding nature or enforceability may be limited by:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(a)       the effect of applicable federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws and court decisions relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)       the effect of legal and equitable principles upon the availability of creditors’ remedies, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(c)       the effect of California judicial decisions involving statutes or principles of equity which have held that certain covenants or other provisions of agreements, including without limitation those providing for the acceleration of indebtedness due under debt instruments upon the occurrence of events therein described, are unenforceable under circumstances where it cannot be demonstrated that the enforcement of such provisions is reasonably necessary for the protection of the lender, has been undertaken in good faith under the circumstances then existing, and is commercially reasonable;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(d)       the effect of Section 1670.5 of the California Civil Code, which provides that a court may refuse to enforce a contract or may limit the application thereof or any clause thereof which the court finds as a matter of law to have been unconscionable at the time it was made;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(e)       the unenforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions purporting to require the award of attorneys’ fees, expenses, or costs, where such provisions do not satisfy the requirements of California Civil Code Section 1717 et seq., or in any action where the lender is not the prevailing party;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(f)       the unenforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions waiving stated rights or unknown future rights and waiving defenses to obligations, where such waivers are contrary to applicable law or against public policy;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(g)       the unenforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions which provide for penalties, late charges, additional interest in the event of a default by the borrower or fees or costs related to such charges;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(h)       the unenforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions to the effect that rights or remedies are not exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, or that the election of some particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or another remedy;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(i)       the unenforceability of provisions prohibiting waivers of provisions of either of the Loan Documents otherwise than in writing to the extent that Section 1698 of the California Civil Code permits oral modifications that have been executed;
		

		

		

		 

		

			 

		

			

					

						 

					

					

						 

					

					

						 

				
	

					

						NYDOCS02/1089152

					

					

						2

					

					

						 

				

		

			 

		

 

		

			 

		

		(j)       limitations on the enforceability of release, contribution, exculpatory, or nonliability provisions, under federal or state securities laws, Sections 1542 and 1543 of the California Civil Code, and any other applicable statute or court decisions;
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(k)       limitations on the enforceability of any indemnity obligations imposed upon or undertaken by the borrower to the extent that such obligations do not satisfy the requirements of Sections 2772 et seq. of the California Civil Code and any judicial decisions thereunder; provided that the limitations and qualifications set forth in the immediately preceding sub-paragraphs (b) through (k) do not, in our opinion, render the remedies available to the Lenders under the Loan Documents inadequate for the practical realization of the primary rights and benefits reasonably expected by an institutional lender in a comparable unsecured credit facility transaction governed by California law; and
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(l)       the effect of Grafton Partners L.P. v. Superior Court, 36 Cal. 4th 944, 2005 WL 1831995 (Cal. 2005), in which the California Supreme Court held that predispute contractual waivers of trial by jury are invalid, as well as the effect of Section 631(d) of the California Code of Civil Procedure, which provides that a court may, in its discretion upon just terms, allow a trial by jury although there may have been a waiver of trial by jury.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			The foregoing opinions are subject to the following exceptions and qualifications:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			a.       We have not been requested to verify and have not verified the validity, accuracy, or reasonableness of any of the factual representations contained in either or both of the Loan Documents, and we express no opinion with respect to any of such matters.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			b.       We are members of the bar of the State of California.  We are opining herein only concerning matters governed by the Federal laws of the United States of America, the substantive laws of the State of California, and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and only with respect to Borrower.  We express no opinion concerning the applicability to either or both of the Loan Documents, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction.  Furthermore, we express no opinion with respect to choice of law or conflicts of law, and none of the opinions stated herein shall be deemed to include or refer to choice of law or conflict of law. 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			c.       We express no opinion on any Federal or state securities laws as they may relate to either or both of the Loan Documents.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			d.       We express no opinion as to compliance with the usury laws of any jurisdiction.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			The opinions set forth herein are given as of the operative date.  We disclaim any obligation to notify you or any other person or entity after the operative date if any change in fact and/or law should change our opinion with respect to any matters set forth herein.  This opinion letter is rendered to you in your capacity as the Agent on behalf of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and may not be relied upon, circulated or quoted, in whole or in part, by any other person or entity (other than the Lenders and a person or entity who becomes an assignee or successor in interest of any Lender or acquires a participation from any Lender consistent with the terms of the Loan Documents) and shall not be referred to in any report or document furnished to any other person or entity without our prior written consent; provided,  however, that the foregoing shall not preclude any Lender from describing or otherwise disclosing the

WHEREAS, the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Lenders agree to modify the Credit Agreement on and subject to the terms set forth herein;

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Definitions.  Any capitalized term used herein and not defined shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Credit Agreement.

 

2.             Amendments.

 

(a)           The following new definition of “Sixth Amendment” is added in alphabetical order to Schedule 1.1 of the Credit Agreement to read as follows:

 

“‘Sixth Amendment’ means the Sixth Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2016 by and among the Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties.”

 

(b)           The following new definition of “Sixth Amendment Effective Date” is added in alphabetical order to Schedule 1.1 of the Credit Agreement to read as follows:

 

“‘Sixth Amendment Effective Date’ has the meaning specified therefor in Section 3 of the Sixth Amendment.”

 

(c)           Section 2.6(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and

 

 

restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“(b)         Letter of Credit Fee.  U.S. Borrowers shall pay Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders with a Revolver Commitment, subject to any agreements between Agent and individual Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in Section 2.12(e)) which shall accrue at a rate equal to 1.50% per annum times the Daily Balance of the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued on behalf of the U.S. Borrowers.  U.K. Borrower shall pay Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders with a Revolver Commitment, subject to any agreements between Agent and individual Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in Section 2.12(m)) which shall accrue at a rate equal to 1.50% per annum times the Daily Balance of the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued on behalf of the U.K. Borrower.”

 

(d)           Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new clauses to read as follows:

 

“(h)         Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue L/Cs or enter into a L/C Undertaking with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer (as of the Closing Date, the prospective Underlying Issuer is to be Wells Fargo) for the account of the U.K. Borrower.  Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be made in writing by an Authorized Person and delivered to the Issuing Lender and Agent via hand delivery, telefacsimile, or other electronic method of transmission reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension.  Each such request shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its Permitted Discretion and shall specify (i) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (iii) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or the beneficiary of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and (v) such other information (including, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the outstanding Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit.  If requested by the Issuing Lender, the U.K. Borrower also shall be an applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking.  The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the U.K. Borrower if any of the following would result after giving effect to the issuance of such requested Letter of Credit:

 

(i)         the Letter of Credit Usage by the U.K. Borrower would exceed the U.K. Borrowing Base less the outstanding amount of U.K. Advances, or

 

(ii)        the Letter of Credit Usage by the U.K. Borrower would exceed $1,000,000, or

 

(iii)       the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount less the outstanding amount of Advances.

 

2

 

Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender (in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion), including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars or Sterling.  If Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, the U.K. Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement to Issuing Lender by paying to Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if Administrative Borrower shall have received written or telephonic notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by Administrative Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the Business Day that Administrative Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on the date of receipt, and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a U.K. Advance hereunder and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to U.K. Advances that are Base Rate Loans.  To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be a U.K. Advance hereunder, the U.K. Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting U.K. Advance.  Promptly following receipt by Agent of any payment from the U.K. Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.12(i) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

 

(i)            Promptly following receipt of a notice of L/C Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.12(h), each Lender with a Revolver Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any U.K. Advance deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on the same terms and conditions as if the U.K. Borrower had requested such U.K. Advance and Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Revolver Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a Revolver Commitment, and each Lender with a Revolver Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Risk Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Revolver Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the U.K. Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.12(h), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the U.K. Borrower for any reason.  Each Lender with a Revolver Commitment acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12(i) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 3.  If any such Lender fails to make available to Agent the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, such

Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full.

 

(j)            U.K. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Lender Group arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the U.K. Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group.  The U.K. Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer’s regulations and interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender’s interpretations of any L/C issued by Issuing Lender to or for the U.K. Borrower’s account, even though this interpretation may be different from the U.K. Borrower’s own, and the U.K. Borrower understands and agrees that the Lender Group shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following the U.K. Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto.  The U.K. Borrower understands that the L/C Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by the U.K. Borrower against such Underlying Issuer.  The U.K. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees), or liability incurred by the Lender Group under any L/C Undertaking as a result of the Lender Group’s indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided, however, that U.K. Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group.  The U.K.  Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Lender Group nor the Issuing Lender shall be responsible for delays, errors, or omissions resulting from the malfunction of equipment in connection with any Letter of Credit.

 

(l)            The U.K. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender’s instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

 

(m)          Any and all issuance customary and reasonable charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit shall be Lender Group Expenses for purposes of this Agreement and immediately shall be reimbursable by the U.K. Borrower to Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by the U.K. Borrower that, as of the Closing Date, the issuance charge imposed by the prospective Underlying Issuer is .400% per annum times the undrawn amount of each Underlying Letter of Credit, that such issuance charge may be changed from time to time, and that the Underlying Issuer also imposes a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals.

 

(n)           If by reason of (i) any change after the Closing Date in any Applicable Law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application

 

4

 

thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (ii) compliance by the Underlying Issuer or the Lender Group with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of Law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

 

(i)            any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, or

 

(ii)           there shall be imposed on the Underlying Issuer or the Lender Group any other condition regarding any Underlying Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto;

 

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Lender Group of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by the Lender Group, then, and in any such case, Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Administrative Borrower, and the U.K. Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Lender Group for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.  The determination by Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.”

 

3.             Conditions to Effectiveness.  The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the fulfillment, in a manner satisfactory to the Agent and the Lenders, of each of the following conditions precedent (the date such conditions are fulfilled or waived by the Agent and the Lenders is hereinafter referred to as the “Sixth Amendment Effective Date”):

 

(a)           Representations and Warranties; No Event of Default.  The representations and warranties herein, in Section 4 of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document and certificate or other writing delivered to the Agent and the Lenders pursuant hereto on or prior to the Sixth Amendment Effective Date shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) after giving effect to this Amendment on and as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date), and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Sixth Amendment Effective Date or would result from this Amendment becoming effective in accordance with its terms.

 

(b)           Execution of Amendment.  The Agent and the Lenders shall have executed this Amendment and shall have received a counterpart to this Amendment, duly executed by the Borrowers and each Guarantor.

 

4.             Representations and Warranties.  Each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors represents and warrants as follows:

 

5

 

(a)           The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrowers or such Guarantor of this Amendment (including, without limitation, Section 5) and the performance by the Borrowers or such Guarantor of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary action, and the Borrowers or such Guarantor has all requisite power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment (including, without limitation, Section 5) and to perform the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

 

(b)           This Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrowers or such Guarantor, enforceable against the Borrowers or such Guarantor in accordance with the terms thereof, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.

 

(c)           The representations and warranties contained in Section 4 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) after giving effect to this Amendment on and as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date as though made on and as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date (except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date), and no Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing on and as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, or would result from this Amendment becoming effective in accordance with its terms.

 

5.             Release.  Each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors may have certain Claims against the Released Parties, as those terms are defined below, regarding or relating to the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  The Agent, the Lenders, the Borrowers and the Guarantors desire to resolve each and every one of such Claims in conjunction with the execution of this Amendment and thus each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors makes the releases contained in this Section 5.  In consideration of the Agent and the Lenders entering into this Amendment and agreeing to substantial concessions as set forth herein, each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors hereby fully and unconditionally releases and forever discharges each of the Agent and the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, branches, affiliates, attorneys, agents, representatives, successors and assigns and all persons, firms, corporations and organizations acting on any of their behalves (collectively, the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all claims, allegations, causes of action, costs or demands and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, from the beginning of the world to the date on which this Amendment is executed, whether known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which the Borrowers or the Guarantors has, had, claims to have had or hereafter claims to have against the Released Parties by reason of any act or omission on the part of the Released Parties, or any of them, occurring prior to the date on which this Amendment is executed, including all such loss or damage of any kind heretofore sustained or that may arise as a consequence of the dealings among the parties up to and including the date on which this Amendment is executed, including the administration or enforcement of the Advances, the Obligations, the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (collectively, all of the foregoing, the “Claims”).  Each of the Borrowers and the

 

6

 

Guarantors represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by it against the Released Parties or of any facts or acts of omissions of the Released Parties which on the date hereof would be the basis of a claim by the Borrowers or the Guarantors against the Released Parties which is not released hereby.  Each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors represents and warrants that the foregoing constitutes a full and complete release of all Claims.

 

6.             Miscellaneous.

 

(a)           Continued Effectiveness of the Credit Agreement.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, except that on and after the Sixth Amendment Effective Date (i) all references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereto”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment, and (ii) all references in the other Loan Documents to the “Credit Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.  To the extent that the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document purports to pledge to Agent, or to grant to Agent, a security interest or lien, such pledge or grant is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.  Except as expressly provided herein, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as an amendment of any right, power or remedy of the Agent and the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender) under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor constitute a waiver or an amendment of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 

(b)           Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.

 

(c)           Headings.  Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment for any other purpose.

 

(d)           Costs and Expenses.  The U.S. Borrowers agree to pay on demand all Lender Group Expenses in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment.

 

(e)           Amendment as Loan Document.  The Borrowers and each Guarantor hereby acknowledge and agree that this Amendment constitutes a “Loan Document” under the Credit Agreement.  Accordingly, it shall be an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement if (i) any representation or warranty made by the Borrowers or any Guarantor under or in connection with this Amendment shall have been untrue, false or misleading in any material respect when made, or (ii) the Borrowers or any Guarantor shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Amendment.

 

7

 

(f)            Governing Law.  This Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

 

(g)           Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS.
