(b) Swing Loan Procedures. The Borrower may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, borrow Swing Loans by giving the Agent a Notice of Borrowing not later than 12:00 P.M. on the proposed date of such Borrowing, specifying:

(i) the proposed Funding Date of such Borrowing; and

(ii) the aggregate amount of the Borrowing to be made on such Funding Date, which shall not be less than $50,000.

SECTION 2.04 Notice to Lenders; Funding of Loans; Letters of Credit.

(a) Notice to Lenders. Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Agent shall promptly deliver to each Lender such Notice of Borrowing (and accompanying Borrowing Base Certificate) and such Lender’s ratable share of the Loans referred to therein.

(b) Funding of Loans.

(i) Loans Generally. Not later than 2:00 P.M. on the applicable Funding Date, each Lender shall make available its share of such Borrowing, in federal or other

43 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

immediately available funds, to the Agent at the account set forth on Schedule A. Unless the Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article IV has not been satisfied or waived, the Agent shall, by 3:00 P.M., make the amount of such Borrowing available to the Borrower at the general deposit account in the United States designated by the Borrower in immediately available funds in a wire transfer. In the event that the conditions as set forth in Section 4.02 for such Loan are not satisfied or waived on the applicable Funding Date, the Agent shall return to the Lenders their respective Loans advanced pursuant to this Section 2.04.

(ii) Swing Loans. Not later than 4:00 P.M. on the applicable Funding Date, the Swingline Lender shall make available to the Borrower by depositing to the general deposit account in the United States designated by the Borrower in immediately available funds in a wire transfer, the aggregate of the Swing Loans requested in such Notice of Borrowing.

A Notice of Borrowing, once delivered to the Agent, shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Following such Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill, on or before the proposed Funding Date specified in the Notice of Borrowing, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, including any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or such funds acquired by the Lenders to fund the Loans to be made pursuant to this Section 2.04(b). Any such loss, cost or expense shall be paid after any Lender shall have furnished to the Borrower and the Agent, with reasonable supporting calculations, a notice specifying the amounts thereof.

(c) Funding by the Agent in Anticipation of Amounts Due from the Lenders. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available to the Agent on the Funding Date of such Loan in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section, and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such share available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower (if and to the extent such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent hereunder) severally in the case of the Lenders and the Borrower, agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at (i) a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and the Euro-Rate, in the case of the Borrower, and (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, in the case of such Lender. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by it as part of any Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make any Loan on the Funding Date of such Borrowing, 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 such Funding Date.

44 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

(e) Letters of Credit.

(i) Letter of Credit Issuances. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each Existing Letter of Credit shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes of this Agreement, issued, for purposes of this Section 2.04(e), on the Restatement Effective Date (provided that any and all issuance fees accrued to, but not including, the Restatement Effective Date in respect thereof pursuant to the Original Loan Agreement shall have been paid in full on or before the Restatement Effective Date; provided further that fees may be due upon presentment of drafts); all of the risk participation exposures in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be assumed by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments; the Borrower, the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer hereby agree that, from and after such date, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the Existing Letters of Credit, superseding any other agreement theretofore applicable to them to the extent inconsistent with the terms hereof.

During the Availability Period, the Borrower may request a Letter of Credit Issuer at any time and from time to time to issue, for the account of the Borrower, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit” and shall include, without limitation, each of the Existing Letters of Credit) and each Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to issue from time to time, Letters of Credit denominated and payable in Dollars and in each case in such form as may be approved by such Letter of Credit Issuer and the Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Letter of Credit Issuance shall be made if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Credit Extensions would exceed the Borrowing Base (after giving effect to the addition to and/or removal of the Aggregate Value of any Eligible Railcars to be added to or removed from the Portfolio on such Funding Date) or (iii) the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the earlier of (i) one year after the date of issuance and (ii) ten Business Days prior to the Termination Date.

(ii) Letter of Credit Requests. Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account, the Borrower shall give the Agent and the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Agent) which, if in the form of written notice, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-3 (each such request, a “Letter of Credit Request”), or transmit by electronic communication (if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer), prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Notice Office) at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which Letter of Credit Request shall include such supporting documents that such Letter of Credit Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith (including, in the case of a Letter of Credit for an account party other than the Borrower, an application for, and if applicable a reimbursement agreement with respect to, such Letter of Credit). In the event of any inconsistency between any of the terms or

45 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

provisions of any Letter of Credit Document and the terms and provisions of this Agreement respecting Letters of Credit, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control.

(iii) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer and the Borrower, each Letter of Credit and Section 2.04(e) shall be subject either to the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the "ICC") at the time of issuance (“UCP”) or the rules of the International Standby Practices (ICC Publication No. 590) (“ISP98”).

(iv) Notice of Letter of Credit Issuance. Each Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the date of each Letter of Credit Issuance by it, give the Agent, each applicable Lender and the Borrower written notice of such Letter of Credit Issuance, accompanied by a copy to the Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it. Each Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide to the Agent a quarterly (or monthly if requested by any applicable Lender) summary describing each Letter of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings represented by Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer.

(v) Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse each Letter of Credit Issuer, by making payment directly to such Letter of Credit Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such Letter of Credit Issuer, for any Unpaid Drawing with respect to any Letter of Credit immediately after, and in any event on the date on which, such Letter of Credit Issuer notifies the Borrower of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Borrower shall be delivered reasonably promptly after any such payment or disbursement), such payment to be made in Dollars in which such Letter of Credit is denominated, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at the payment office of the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date such Letter of Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06 that are Base Rate Loans or, if not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement, at the rate pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(ii), any such interest also to be payable on demand. If by 11:00 A.M. on the Business Day immediately following notice to it of its obligation to make reimbursement in respect of an Unpaid Drawing, the Borrower has not made such reimbursement out of its available cash on hand or, in the case of the Borrower, a contemporaneous Borrowing hereunder (if such Borrowing is otherwise available to the Borrower), (x) the Borrower will in each case be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unpaid Drawing (and the Agent shall promptly give notice to the Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing), (y) the Lenders shall, unless they are legally prohibited from doing so, make the Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Revolving Loans shall be considered made under

46 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

Section 2.01), and (z) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed directly to the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer to the extent necessary to effect such reimbursement and repayment of the Unpaid Drawing, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

(vi) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation under this Section to reimburse each Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against such Letter of Credit Issuer, the Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse an Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such Letter of Credit Issuer.

(vii) Letter of Credit Participations.

(i) Immediately upon each Letter of Credit Issuance, the Letter of Credit Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender with a Commitment, and each such Lender (each a “Letter of Credit Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (a “Letter of Credit Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time of issuance, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees relating thereto shall be payable directly to the Agent for the account of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.15(a) and the Letter of Credit Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.15(b)), the obligations of the Borrower under any Letter of Credit Documents pertaining thereto, the obligations of the Borrower under any Letter of Credit Documents pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing.

(ii) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the Letter of Credit Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by a Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or

47 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such Letter of Credit Issuer any resulting liability.

(iii) If a Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.04(e)(v), such Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Letter of Credit Participant of such failure, and each Letter of Credit Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Agent for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer, the amount of such Letter of Credit Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such payment in Dollars and in same-day funds; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Agent its Revolving Facility Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such Letter of Credit Issuer. If the Agent so notifies any Letter of Credit Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on any Business Day, such Letter of Credit Participant shall make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer such Letter of Credit Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same-day funds. If and to the extent such Letter of Credit Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer, such Letter of Credit Participant agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Agent for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Letter of Credit Participant to make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Letter of Credit Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Letter of Credit Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Letter of Credit Participant to make available to the Agent for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer such other Letter of Credit Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of any such payment.

(iv) Whenever a Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Agent has received for the account of such Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the Letter of Credit Participants pursuant to subpart (iii) above, such Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Agent and the Agent shall promptly pay to each Letter of Credit Participant that has paid its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof, in same-day funds, an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the principal amount

48 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective Letter of Credit Participations, as and to the extent so received.

(v) The obligations of the Letter of Credit Participants to make payments to the Agent for the account of each Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) the existence of any claim, set-off defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Agent, any Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit), other than any claim that the Borrower may have against any applicable Letter of Credit Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Letter of Credit Issuer in making payment under any applicable Letter of Credit;

(C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(E) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.

(vi) To the extent any Letter of Credit Issuer is not indemnified by the Borrower, the Letter of Credit Participants will reimburse and indemnify such Letter of Credit Issuer, in proportion to their respective Revolving Facility Percentages, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Letter of Credit Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of Letter of Credit Issuances by it; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit Participants shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Letter of Credit Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct

(b) Agent Records. The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) Evidence of Debt. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.05 shall be conclusive evidence (absent manifest error) of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

(d) Notes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender or the Swingline Lender shall request and receive a Revolving Loan Note or Swingline Note, as applicable, as provided in Section 12.06 or otherwise, then the Loans of such Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note or Swingline Note, as applicable, and payable to the order of such Lender in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Loans.

(e) Note Endorsements. Each Lender having a Note shall record the date and amount of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement of its Note, endorse on the reverse side or on the schedule, if any, forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each outstanding Loan evidenced thereby; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any such Note. Each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse its Note and to attach to and make a part of its Note a continuation of any such schedule as and when required. When the Borrower has paid a Note in full and the applicable Lender no longer has any Commitment outstanding, such Lender will promptly return such Note to the Agent, who will return such Note to the Borrower, against receipt therefor, marked “PAID IN FULL”.

(f) Lost, Mutilated and Destroyed Notes, etc. If any Note issued to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Borrower shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Note, execute and deliver to the Agent, who shall endorse and deliver to the applicable Lender in replacement thereof a new Note, payable to the same holder in the same principal amount and dated the same date as the Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen. If the Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Note shall be surrendered to the Borrower for cancellation and if the Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Note shall furnish to the Borrower such indemnification as may be required by the Borrower to hold the Borrower harmless and evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of

SECTION 2.06 Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowings and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than six (6) Borrowings in the aggregate among all of the Loans (with all outstanding Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies being deemed a single Borrowing for this purpose) and provided further that if a Default exists and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the Euro-Rate Option for any Loans, and all existing Borrowings bearing interest under the Euro-Rate Option shall be converted at the end of the applicable Interest Period to the Base Rate Option. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate.

(a) Rate of Interest – Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit Drawings.

All Unpaid Drawings with respect to each Letter of Credit shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate, plus the Facility Margin. Such interest shall be payable in arrears on demand.

(ii) At any time during which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Loan and Unpaid Drawing shall bear additional interest (in addition to the interest payable pursuant to, as applicable, Section 2.06(a)(i) or Section 2.06(b)) on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Default Margin. Such interest shall be payable on demand.

(b) Rate of Interest – Swing Loans. Subject to Sections 3.02 through 3.06, inclusive, each Swing Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Daily One-Month LIBO Rate, plus the Facility Margin, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Swingline Lender.

(c) Determination and Notice of Interest Rates. The Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and Unpaid Drawings hereunder as provided in this Agreement. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(d) Regarding Interest Periods. At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof by delivering a Notice of Borrowing to the Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Euro-Rate Option. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a Euro-Rate Option:

If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.06(d), the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected the Euro-Rate Option for an additional Interest Period of one month, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period, unless less than one month remains until the Revolving Termination Date, in which event the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing to the Base Rate Option, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

(f) Interest Payment Dates. Interest on Revolving Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Revolving Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 2.08(b) shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due.

(ii) If on any date, the Borrower is aware that a Collateral Deficiency exists, the Borrower shall, no later than the next Business Day, either (A) pay the amount of such Collateral Deficiency together with accrued interest thereon and the amount, if any, owed to each Lender pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or (B) purchase or acquire by capital contribution additional Eligible Railcars and/or Eligible Leases and/or other collateral acceptable to the Agent and all the Lenders so that such Collateral Deficiency no longer exists.

(b) Optional Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower may from time to time permanently reduce or terminate the Committed Amount in whole or in part (in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the full remaining amount of the then applicable Committed Amount)) upon five Business Days’ prior written or telecopy notice to the Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once delivered to the Agent; provided, however, no such termination or reduction shall be made which would cause the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Credit Extensions to exceed the lesser of (i) the Committed Amount as so reduced and (ii) the Borrowing Base at such time. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt by the Agent of any notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(b). Any partial reduction of the Committed Amount pursuant to this Section 2.09(b) shall be applied to the Commitments of the Lenders pro-rata based upon their respective Commitment Percentages.

(c) Automatic Termination. The Commitments of the Lenders shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Termination Date.

SECTION 2.10 Unused Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent (or at the direction of the Agent) for the account of each Lender a fee (the “Unused Fee”) on such Lender’s daily average Available Commitment, computed at a per annum rate for each day equal to twenty-five basis points (0.25%). The Unused Fee shall commence to accrue on the Restatement Effective Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date for the calendar quarter (or if applicable, portion thereof) most recently ended; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no Unused Fee shall accrue on any day following the Revolving Termination Date.

SECTION 2.11 Pro-rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, (including without limitation in Sections 2.01(b)), each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on any Loan, each payment of fees, each reduction of the Committed Amount and each conversion or continuation of any Loan, shall be allocated pro-rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitment Percentages of such Lenders (or, if the Commitments of such Lenders have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of such Lenders); provided that, in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.11 is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Agent until the date the Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the Base Rate, plus two percent per annum.

SECTION 2.12 Sharing of Payments. The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, if any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loan or any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro-rata share of such payment as provided for in this Agreement, such Lender shall promptly pay in cash or purchase from the other Lenders a participation in such Loans and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders share such payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Agreement. The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of such payment shall, by payment in cash or a repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loan or other obligation in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 2.12 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable,

55 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this Section 2.12 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 2.13 Payments; Computations; Proceeds of Collateral, Etc.

(a) Payments by the Borrower. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower to the Protected Parties pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower (or by its designee) to the Agent for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to receive such payment or, at the direction of the Agent, directly to such Protected Parties. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction (except for Taxes which are expressly addressed in Section 3.01) or counterclaim not later than 11:00 A.M. New York City time on the date due in Dollars in same day or immediately available funds to such account or accounts (if payment is to be made directly to the Protected Parties) as the Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent or a Protected Party, as the case may be, on the next succeeding Business Day. In the event that a payment is made to Agent for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to such payment, the Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Protected Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Agent for the account of such Protected Party. Whenever any payment is to be made hereunder or under any Loan, or whenever the last day of any Interest Period would otherwise occur on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made, and the last day of such Interest Period shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall accrue on such amount from the original due date to such next Business Day; provided that if such extension would cause the last day of such Interest Period to occur in a new calendar month, the last day of such Interest Period shall occur on the next preceding Business Day.

(b) Distributions by the Agent. Each such distribution by the Agent to such Protected Party shall be made in accordance with Section 2.08. Upon the request of any Protected Party, the Agent in its sole discretion may cause to be distributed to such Protected Party on such due date a corresponding amount with respect to the amount then due such Protected Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent and the Agent shall have so caused to be distributed to such Protected Party a corresponding amount with respect to the amount then due such Protected Party, such Protected Party shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Protected Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Protected Party until the date such Protected Party repays such amount, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three Business Days after demand by the Agent and at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus one percent thereafter until the date such Protected Party repays such amount to the Agent.

(c) Computations. All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, except for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Daily One-Month LIBO Rate) and the Unused Fee, each of which shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing but exclude the date of payment.

56 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

(d) Holidays. Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or action taken hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 2.06) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Facility Termination Date if the Facility Termination Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action.

SECTION 2.14 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that 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” and Section 12.03.

(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 Article IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.08) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), 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, 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; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 fifth, 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 Loan 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 4.02 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 their respective Commitment Percentage hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that

57 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14(a)(ii) 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 Unused Fee payable hereunder for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such Unused Fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender shall no longer be deemed to be 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 on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentage 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.

SECTION 2.15 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of each Lender based upon each such Lender’s Commitment Percentage, a Letter of Credit participation fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit until the expiration date thereof, computed for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Facility Margin applicable to Loans bearing interest calculated by reference to the Euro-Rate on the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit issued hereunder (provided that, at any time during which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such fee shall accrue and be payable a rate per annum equal to the Facility Margin applicable to Loans bearing interest calculated by reference to the Euro-Rate, plus the Default Margin). The Borrower also agrees to pay directly to each Letter of Credit Issuer, for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it, payable quarterly in arrears, computed at the rate of twelve and one-half basis points (0.125%) per annum on the Stated Amount thereof for the period from the date of issuance to the expiration date thereof. Each of the foregoing participation fees and fronting fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date for the calendar quarter (or, if applicable, portion thereof) most recently ended.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

SECTION 3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantor under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or

58 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall indemnify each Recipient, 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 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient by the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, 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 or the Guarantor, as applicable, by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower and the Guarantor have not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.06(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this subsection (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or the Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt

59 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(f) Status of Lenders. (I) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 3.01(f)(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 such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

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

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

(B) any Lender that is not a U.S. Person (“Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (1) 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 copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E 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 IRS Form W-8BEN-E 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; (2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower

60 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W‑8BEN-E; or (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W‑8BEN-E, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;

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

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

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

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified

61 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Mitigation. If the Borrower or the Guarantor is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Recipient pursuant to this Section 3.01, then such Recipient will agree to use reasonable efforts to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the judgment of such Recipient, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(i) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower or the Guarantor hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantor contained in subsections (a) through (h) above shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under any instrument delivered hereunder.

SECTION 3.02 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any Applicable Law, or any change in any Applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the applicable Lender to make, maintain or fund any of its Loans at a rate based upon the applicable Euro-Rate (such event being hereinafter referred to as an “Illegality Event”) and such Lender shall so notify the Agent, the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, interest on the Loans of such Lender shall accrue and be payable at the Base Rate. If an Illegality Event does not affect all Lenders, the Agent shall make a good faith effort to cause the Lenders that are not affected by such Illegality Event to purchase the Loans held by the affected Lenders. The foregoing shall not delay or otherwise affect the Borrower’s obligation to pay interest at the Base Rate as provided in this Section.

SECTION 3.03 Increased Costs and Reduced Return.

(a) If, on or after the date hereof, (x) the adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law (including any Existing Law (defined below)) or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender, (y) any request, guidance or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (z) the compliance, application or implementation by any Lender with the foregoing subclauses (x) or (y) or any Existing Law (defined

62 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

below), in each case made subsequent to the Restatement Effective Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):

(i) shall subject such 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 its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the applicable Euro-Rate; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from such Lender, through the Agent, in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay such Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the adoption or the becoming effective of, or any change in, or any change by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof in the interpretation or administration of, any Applicable Law (including any Existing Law), regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, (ii) any request, guidance or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, or (iii) the compliance, application or implementation by such Lender or its parent corporation of the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) or any Existing Law has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s (or parent corporation’s) capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender, or its parent corporation, could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s (or parent corporation’s) policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), then, upon notice from such Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. Each determination by any such Lender of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, an Applicable Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements shall include, but not be limited to, (i) the final rule titled “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines; Capital Adequacy Guidelines; Capital Maintenance: Regulatory Capital; Impact of Modifications to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; Consolidation of Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Programs; and Other Related Issues,” adopted by the United States bank regulatory agencies on December 15, 2009 (the “FAS 166/167 Capital Guidelines”); (ii) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (iii) the revised Basel Accord prepared by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision as set out in the publication entitled “Basel II:

63 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework,” as updated from time to time (“Basel II”); (iv) the publication entitled “Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems,” as updated from time to time (“Basel III”); or (v) any implementing rules, regulations, guidance, interpretations or directives from any official body relating to the FAS 166/167 Capital Guidelines, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Basel II or Basel III (whether or not having the force of law and whether any such Applicable Law becomes effective before or after the date hereof) (collectively, “Existing Law”).

(c) A certificate of each Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in subsection (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay each Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within ten (10) days following presentation thereof.

(d) Promptly after any Lender becomes aware of any circumstance that will, in its sole judgment, result in a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure on the part of any Lender so to notify the Borrower or to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

SECTION 3.04 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or reasonable expense (but excluding in any event loss of anticipated profit) which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) any failure by the Borrower to fulfill on the date of any Borrowing hereunder the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, so long as any such failure is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or any Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder in all material respects, (ii) any failure by the Borrower to borrow or to refinance any Loan hereunder after irrevocable notice of such Borrowing, or refinancing has been given pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.08, so long as any such failure is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or any Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder in all material respects, (iii) any payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due), or any voluntary prepayment without the required notice, so long as any such payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or any Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder in all material respects, or (iv) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices, or otherwise) in whole or part any Notice of Borrowing or notice relating to prepayment (each such loss or expense, a “Funding Loss”). Such Funding Losses shall be determined by each Lender in its sole discretion and shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid or not borrowed (based on the Euro-Rate), for the period from the date of such

64 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

payment, prepayment or failure to borrow to the last day of the then applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have been applicable to such Loan on the date of such failure to borrow) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or continued for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts payable under this Section 3.04 shall be calculated on the basis of the Lender obtaining funds for its Loans based on borrowing for a one-month period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 3.05 Market Disruption.

(a) If a Market Disruption Event (as defined in subsection (b) of this Section 3.05) exists with respect to any Loan bearing interest calculated by reference to the Euro-Rate for any day during any Interest Period, then the portion of such Loan held by each Lender for such Interest Period shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day (excluding the last day) during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum (in lieu of the Euro-Rate, with respect to such Loan prior to giving effect to such Market Disruption Event) equal to the sum of:

(1) the Facility Margin; plus

(2) the actual cost of funds of such Lender(s) for such Interest Period; provided that, if a Market Disruption Event (as defined in subsection (b) of this Section 3.05) exists and the provisions of this Section 3.05 are applicable, then each affected Lender shall certify, in a statement provided to the Agent and the Borrower, its actual costs of funds for such Interest Period.

(b) For purposes of this Section 3.05, “Market Disruption Event” means, with respect to any Loan bearing interest calculated by reference to the Euro-Rate for any day during any Interest Period, one or more Lenders provide notice to the Agent and the Borrower, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, that, with respect to such Interest Period, the Euro-Rate does not accurately reflect the cost to such Lender(s) of maintaining or funding its Loans for such Interest Period and the actual cost of funds of such Lender(s) for such Interest Period is greater than Euro-Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding and in lieu of anything provided herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, with respect to each Interest Period with respect to which a Market Disruption Event is applicable, the Borrower shall pay to each affected Lender interest for such Interest Period at the rate provided in subsection (a) of this Section 3.05.

SECTION 3.06 Termination of LIBOR

(a) If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that either (i) (A) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate and that such

65 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

circumstance is unlikely to be temporary, or (B) the circumstance set forth in clause (i) hereof has not arisen but the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the Euro-Rate or an Official Body having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying the specific date after which the so-called “London Interbank Offered Rate” shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (either such date, a “LIBOR Termination Date”), or (ii) a rate other than the Euro-Rate has become a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. market, then the Agent may (in consultation with the Borrower) choose a replacement index for the Euro-Rate and make adjustments to applicable margins and related amendments to this Agreement as referred to below such that, to the extent practicable, the all-in interest rate based on the replacement index will be substantially equivalent to the all-in Euro-Rate-based interest rate in effect prior to its replacement.

(b) The Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect the replacement index, the adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Agent, for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 12.03), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. on the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the date a draft of the amendment is provided to the Lenders, unless the Agent receives, on or before such tenth (10^th) Business Day, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Lenders object to such amendment.

(c) Selection of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly originated loans in the United States and loans converted from a Euro-Rate-based rate to a replacement index-based rate, and (ii) may also reflect adjustments to account for (A) the effects of the transition from the Euro-Rate to the replacement index and (B) yield- or risk-based differences between the Euro-Rate and the replacement index.

(d) Until an amendment reflecting a new replacement index in accordance with this Section 3.06 is effective, each advance, conversion and renewal of a Revolving Loan under the Euro-Rate option will continue to bear interest at the Euro-Rate, plus the Facility Margin; provided however, that if the Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that a LIBOR Termination Date has occurred, then following the LIBOR Termination Date, all Revolving Loans as to which the Euro-Rate would otherwise apply shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate, plus the Facility Margin, until such time as an amendment reflecting a replacement index and related matters as described above is implemented.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero percent (0.00%), at such times, such index shall be deemed to be zero percent (0.00%) for purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.07 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any Loan to the Borrower through any lending office; provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.03, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, then, at the request of the Borrower, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (i) requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.07(a), (ii) does not approve any action as to which its consent is required and the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained with respect to such action, (iii) is a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) becomes subject to the control of a Governmental Authority (other than normal and customary supervision), then the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 12.14.

There is no proposed Tax assessment against any Facility Party and their respective Subsidiary or any basis for such assessment which could be likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each of the Facility Parties and each of their respective Subsidiaries is in compliance with all requirements of Applicable Law (including Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Terrorism Laws and Environmental Laws) applicable to it or to its properties, except where such failures to comply could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Without the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent may be granted or withheld at the Agent’s sole discretion, no Facility Party will waive (or permit the waiver of) a Lease Default or Lease Event of Default under a Lease; provided, however, that unless a Default arising from the failure to make a payment when due hereunder or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may elect, in its reasonable discretion and upon written notice to the Agent, to give such waiver (or permit such waiver), so long as such waiver is limited to the particular facts giving rise to such Lease Default or Lease Event of Default and does not prejudice the Borrower’s (or Collateral Agent’s, by assignment) rights under the relevant Lease to exercise remedies with respect to any other or future Lease Defaults or Lease Events of Default; provided, further, that any such waiver without the prior written consent of the Agent shall not (i) cause a Lease which otherwise would cease or fail to be an Eligible Lease to be an Eligible Lease or (ii) affect the determination of the Excess Concentration Amount.

SECTION 7.15 Independence of Covenants. All covenants contained herein shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that such action or condition would be permitted by an exception to, or otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

SECTION 7.16 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will not request any Loan, and will not use, and the Borrower will ensure that its Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws or any anti-money laundering laws or regulations.

SECTION 7.17 Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts. Neither the Borrower nor the Guarantor shall establish any deposit account or securities account except for Collection Accounts established in accordance with Section 6.13.

(a) Termination of Commitments. Declare the Commitments terminated whereupon the Commitments shall be immediately terminated.

(b) Acceleration of Loans. Declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest in respect of all Loans and any and all other indebtedness or obligations of any and every kind owing by the Borrower to any of the Lenders hereunder to be due whereupon the same shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

(c) Enforcement of Rights. Enforce any and all rights and interests created and existing under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, directing the Collateral Agent to enforce all rights and remedies existing under the Collateral Documents (including, without limitation, the seizure and liquidation of any Collateral) and all rights of set-off.

102 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately become due and payable without the giving of any notice or other action by the Collateral Agent, the Agent or the Lenders, which notice or other action is expressly waived by the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the Collateral Agent and the Agent, each Lender has, to the extent permitted by law, a separate right of payment and shall be considered a separate “creditor” holding a separate “claim” within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other insolvency statute.

In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall have been breached by any Facility Party, then the Collateral Agent and the Agent may proceed to protect and enforce the Lenders’ rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at law, including an action for damages as a result of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or such other Loan Document. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Facility Party agrees that failure to comply with any of the covenants contained herein may cause irreparable harm and that specific performance shall be available as a remedy in the event of any breach thereof. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent acting pursuant to this paragraph shall be indemnified by the Borrower against all liability, loss or damage, together with all reasonable costs and expenses related thereto (including reasonable legal and accounting fees and expenses) in accordance with Section 12.05.

SECTION 9.03 Application of Collateral.

first, to the Manager, for distribution to the Lessees, of any amounts due and owing to Lessees under the Leases;

second, to reimburse the Collateral Agent and the Agent for any fees and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or the Agent, as the case may be (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with any Event of Default and the exercise by the Agent and/or the Collateral Agent of any right or remedy hereunder and not previously reimbursed or paid by the Lenders);

third, ratably (a) to the payment of the Unused Fee, (b) to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and (c) to the payment of Derivatives Obligations (other than for the payment of Derivatives Termination Values payable by the Borrower), if any, then due and payable;

103 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

fourth, to the ratable payment of, (a) the unpaid principal amount of the Loans and (b) Derivatives Creditors for the payment of Derivatives Termination Values payable by the Borrower;

fifth, to reimburse the Lenders for any fees and expenses incurred by the Lenders as described in Section 12.04 and for any amounts paid by the Lenders to the Agent in compensation for fees and expenses incurred by the Agent as described in clause second of this Section 9.03;

sixth, to the payment of all indemnities in respect of Taxes, Other Taxes, stamp taxes, Funding Losses referred to in Section 3.04, increased costs referred to in Section 3.03, losses, costs and expenses referred to in Section 2.04(b) and other amounts, other than principal of or interest on the Loans, payable to any Protected Party in accordance with the Loan Documents;

seventh, to the payment of any and all other Obligations that have not been paid pursuant to clauses first through sixth, inclusive;

eighth, to the payment of any amounts owed to a Lessee that has not been paid pursuant to clause first; and

ninth, at the direction of the Borrower.

GUARANTY

SECTION 10.01 The Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby guarantees to each of the Protected Parties and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations. The Guarantor hereby agrees that if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated or extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Obligations, the Guarantor will pay the same without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

SECTION 10.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor under Section 10.01 are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Article X that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or

104 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

impair the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreement, document or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(d) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Protected Party as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to be perfected.

The Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Protected Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.

SECTION 10.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Article X shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Guarantor agrees that they will indemnify the Protected Parties on demand for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and other charges of counsel) incurred by the Protected Parties in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Obligations and all other obligations and amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

105 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

SECTION 10.04 Subrogation. The Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Obligations, and the expiration and termination of all commitments to extend credit under this Agreement, the Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 10.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any security for any of the Obligations.

SECTION 10.05 Remedies. The Guarantor agrees that, as between the Guarantor and the Protected Parties, an Obligation may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided under Article IX (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided therein) for purposes of Section 10.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for purposes of Section 10.01.

SECTION 10.06 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article X is a continuing guarantee of payment (and not of collection), and shall apply to all Obligations whenever arising.

SECTION 10.07 General Limitation on Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate or other law, or any Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of the Guarantor under Section 10.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 10.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantor, any Protected Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

ARTICLE XI

AGENCY PROVISIONS

SECTION 11.01 Appointment; Authorization.

(a) Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints PNC, as Agent of such Lender to act as specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender hereby authorizes the Agent, as the agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated by the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including but not limited to the appointing of the Collateral Agent under the Security Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,

106 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or shall otherwise exist against the Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Facility Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing two sentences, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Article XI (other than Section 11.09) are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and none of the Facility Parties nor the Collateral Agent shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of the provisions hereof (other than Section 11.09).

(b) Collateral Documents. Without limiting the generality of clause (a) of this Section 11.01, each Lender hereby further authorizes the Agent to appoint PNC as Collateral Agent to enter into any Collateral Document as secured party on behalf of and for the benefit of such Lender or otherwise and to require the delivery of any Collateral Document which the Agent determines is necessary or advisable to protect or perfect the interests of the Protected Parties in any Collateral and agrees to be bound by the terms of each of the Collateral Documents. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, but subject to Section 12.08, each Lender agrees that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document or Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Agent (or its designee, including the Collateral Agent) for the benefit of Protected Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. Each Lender (for itself and on behalf of each other Creditor with which it is affiliated) hereby authorizes the Agent (or, at the Agent’s discretion, its designee, including the Collateral Agent) (i) to release Collateral as permitted or required under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents or by Applicable Laws, and agrees that a certificate or other instrument executed by the Agent or the Collateral Agent evidencing such release of Collateral shall be conclusive evidence of such release as to any third party, and (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 12.03 hereof, to enter into any amendments or waivers of the Collateral Documents which the Agent determines are necessary or advisable, including, without limitation, those Collateral Documents the form of which are exhibits to this Agreement

SECTION 11.02 Delegation of Duties. The Agent and the Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 11.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except

107 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders or participants for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Facility Parties contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent or the Collateral Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan Documents, or for any failure of any Facility Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Facility Parties.

SECTION 11.04 Reliance on Communications. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex, teletype or e-mail message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any of the Facility Parties, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct). The Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent in accordance with Section 12.06(b). Each of the Collateral Agent and the Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically provided in Section 12.03, all the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns). Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically provided in Section 12.03, all the Lenders) otherwise determine, each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall, and in all other instances the Agent and the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or vote of the Lenders.

SECTION 11.05 Notice of Default. 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 accounts of the Lenders, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender, the Manager, the Guarantor or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Management Agreement, as applicable, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. If the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Each of the Agent and the

108 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, has received any such direction, the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, 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 or it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

SECTION 11.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by the Agent or Collateral Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent or Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Facility Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent or Collateral Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Agent or Collateral Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to the Agent and Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Facility Parties, and all requirements of Applicable Law, and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, 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 investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of each Facility Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of any Facility Party or their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.

SECTION 11.07 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders agree, severally but not jointly, to indemnify the Agent and the Collateral Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitments (or if the Commitments have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of outstanding Loans of the Lenders), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities which may at any time (including without limitation at any time following payment in full of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Collateral Agent in each of their respective capacities as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent or Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent or Collateral Agent of any portion of such Indemnified

109 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

Liabilities resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided further, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. If any indemnity furnished to the Agent or Collateral Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, be insufficient or become impaired, each of the Agent or Collateral Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each of the Agent and Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out‑of‑pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by each of the Agent and Collateral 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 the extent that the Agent or Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Obligations and all other obligations and amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 11.08 Agent and Collateral Agent in Their Individual Capacities. The Agent, the Collateral Agent and their respective 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 and other business with either Facility Party as though the Agent or Collateral Agent were not the Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder or under another Loan Document. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to any such activities, the Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Facility Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Facility Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to the Loans made by and all obligations owing to it, each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it was not the Agent or Collateral Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in their respective individual capacities.

SECTION 11.09 Successor Agents. The Agent may, at any time, resign upon 30 days’ written notice to the Lenders. If the Agent resigns under a Loan Document, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor Agent, which successor Agent, if other than a Lender, shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment prior to the effective date of the resignation of the resigning Agent, then the resigning Agent shall have the right, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent; provided such successor Agent is a Lender hereunder or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the resigning Agent, the resigning Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment

110 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as an Agent, as appropriate, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this Section 11.09 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent within 60 days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective and the Lenders shall perform all duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

SECTION 11.10 Request for Documents. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall from time to time upon reasonable request therefor furnish each Lender with copies of Additional Railcar Packages, Railcar Documentation, Lease Documents and/or Loan Documents (to the extent such Additional Railcar Packages, Railcar Documentation, Lease Documents and/or Loan Documents are provided by the Borrower or other third parties, in the form and to the extent provided to the Agent or the Collateral Agent by the Borrower or such third parties).

SECTION 11.11 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender's, Affiliate's, participant's or assignee's customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the "CIP Regulations"), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Facility Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

SECTION 11.12 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Lead Arranger or any syndication or documentation agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, if applicable, as the Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder.

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 12.01 Notices and Other Communications.

(a) General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to the address, facsimile number or electronic mail address specified for notices as set forth on Schedule 12.01 or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower, the Guarantor, and the Agent. All such notices and other

111 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the intended recipient and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by the intended recipient; (B) if delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail, when sent and confirmed by a copy sent by the methods described in (A), (B) or (C) above; provided, however, that notices and other communications to the Agent pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by such Person. Any notice or other communication permitted to be given, made or confirmed by telephone hereunder shall be given, made or confirmed by means of a telephone call to the intended recipient at the number specified on Schedule 12.01, it being understood and agreed that a voicemail message shall in no event be effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.

(b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or electronic mail. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to requirements of Applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all Facility Parties, the Agent and the Lenders. The Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

(c) Reliance by Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders. The Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Facility Party even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of a Facility Party. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Agent may be recorded by the Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

SECTION 12.02 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender and any of the Facility Parties shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Facility Party in any case shall entitle the Facility Parties to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Agent, Collateral Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

SECTION 12.03 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived,

112 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

discharged or terminated except, in the case of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements or a consent or consents in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Guarantor and the Manager, to the extent it is a party thereto, the Required Lenders, and the Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the ability of the Required Lenders to waive any Event of Default prior to the time the Agent shall have declared, or the Required Lenders shall have requested the Agent to declare, the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article IX; provided further, however, that:

(i) no such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender affected thereby:

(A) extend the Revolving Termination Date or the Final Maturity Date or extend or waive any payment of the Loans due thereon; provided that this clause (A) shall not restrict the ability of the Required Lenders to waive any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default the waiver of which would effectively result in any such extension or waiver) prior to the time the Agent shall have declared, or the Required Lenders shall have requested the Agent to declare, the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article IX;

(B) reduce the rate, or extend the time of payment, of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) thereon or fees hereunder;

(D) increase the Commitment of a Lender over the amount thereof in effect (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or a mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender);

(E) release all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Credit Obligations hereunder (provided that the Collateral Agent may, without consent from any other Lender, release any Collateral that is sold or transferred by the Borrower or the Guarantor in compliance with Section 7.05);

(F) release any Facility Party from its respective obligations under the Loan Documents and/or the Management Agreement;

(G) amend, modify or waive (a) any provision of this Section 12.03, (b) reduce any percentage specified in, or otherwise modify, the definition of Required Lenders or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, (c) the provisions of Section 9.03, or (d) any provisions of this Agreement of any other Loan Document requiring pro rata sharing or application of payments among the Lenders, including Section 2.12 hereof;

113 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

(H) amend or modify or, if applicable, waive the effects of the definition of “Borrowing Base”, “Collateral Deficiency”, “Eligible Lease”, “Eligible Railcar”, or any term that is a component of any such definition; or

(I) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Facility Party of any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Loan Documents and the Management Agreement, except as permitted thereby.

(ii) no provision of Article XI may be amended without the consent of the Agent.

Notwithstanding that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (i) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein and (ii) the Required Lenders may consent to allow the Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with respect to the Borrower.

In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.03 to the contrary, if the Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision, and, in each case, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to the Agent within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

The various requirements of this Section 12.03 are cumulative. Each Lender and each holder of a Note shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 12.03 regardless of whether its Note shall have been marked to make reference therein, and any consent by any Lender or holder of a Note pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note from it, whether or not such Note shall have been so marked.

SECTION 12.04 Expenses. The Borrower shall pay promptly on demand all out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of the Agent and, without duplication, the Lead Arranger) incurred by the Agent (and its Affiliates, including, but without duplication of fees and expenses of the Agent, the Lead Arranger) and the Collateral Agent: (i) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of the Loan Documents including, without limitation, (A) due diligence, collateral review, syndication, transportation, computer, duplication, audit, insurance, consultant, search, filing and recording fees and expenses and (B) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for each of the Lead Arranger (but without duplication of fees and expenses of the Agent), the Agent and the Collateral Agent with respect thereto, with respect to advising the Lead Arranger, the Agent or the Collateral Agent as to its rights and responsibilities, or the perfection, protection or preservation of rights and interests, under the Loan Documents and Lease Documents, (ii) in connection with wire transfers to be made by the Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with the distribution of proceeds under this Agreement and (iii) in connection with any amendment, refinancing, modification, supplement (or, if related to a request by any Facility Party or any Lessee,

114 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

interpretation), or waiver under any of the Notes or other Loan Documents and Lease Documents whether or not such amendment, refinancing, modification, supplement, interpretation or waiver is obtained or becomes effective, and in connection with the consideration of any potential, actual or proposed restructuring or workout of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents.

The Borrower shall pay promptly on demand (i) all reasonable filing fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent, the Agent, and the Lead Arranger (but without duplication of fees and expenses of the Agent) and all reasonable fees and expenses of special STB or other collateral or regulatory counsel (and other local counsel reasonably engaged by the Collateral Agent or the Agent), as the case may be, in connection with the preparation and review of the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents and Lease Documents from time to time entered into or reviewed pursuant to this Agreement and all documents related thereto, the search of railcar conveyance and Lien records, the recordation of documents with the STB or other applicable Governmental Authority, inspection and appraisal fees and the making of the Loans hereunder, whether or not any Funding Date or other transaction contemplated hereby closes and (ii) all taxes which the Collateral Agent or any Protected Party may be required to pay by reason of the security interests granted in the Collateral (including any applicable transfer taxes) or to free any of the Collateral from the Lien thereof.

In addition, the Borrower shall pay promptly on demand all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and fees and expenses of any expert witnesses) incurred by the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement and protection of the rights of the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents and any amendments thereto and waivers thereof and any Default or Event of Default, including without limitation, the performance by the Agent or the Lenders of any act any Facility Party has covenanted to do under the Loan Documents and/or the Management Agreement to the extent such Facility Party fails to comply with any such covenant.

SECTION 12.05 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Facility Party (other than any successor Manager appointed pursuant to this Agreement that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower), jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender, each other Protected Party and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against (and without duplication of amounts payable or the provisions which relate to such payment under the other provisions of the Loan Documents): (i) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against any Facility Party, any Affiliate of any Facility Party or any of their respective officers or directors; (ii) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Obligations and the resignation or removal of the Agent or the Collateral Agent or the replacement of any Lender) be asserted or imposed against any Indemnitee, arising out of or relating to, the Loan Documents, any predecessor Loan Documents, the Commitments, the use of or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Loan, or the relationship of any Andersons Party, the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the

115 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iii) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in clause (i) or (ii) above; (iv) any Loan Document, Lease Document, other Transaction Document or any document contemplated hereby or thereby and payments made pursuant hereto or thereto or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder, any breach by any Facility Party of any Transaction Document or Lease Document or a Lessee of any Lease Document, (v) any Railcar, any Part or the Borrower’s or Guarantor’s acquisition or ownership of, or the selection, design, financing, lease, control, operation, condition, location, storage, modification, repair, sale, use, maintenance, possession, registration, delivery, non-delivery, transportation, transfer or disposition of, any Railcar or Part; (vi) any liability arising under or in respect of any Environmental Law, in each case relating to any Railcar or the use, operation or ownership thereof, whether by any Facility Party, any Lessee or any other Person; (vii) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by, imposed on or asserted against such Indemnitee in connection with any investigation or administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or threatened relating to or arising out of any Collateral Document or in any other way connected with the enforcement of any of the terms of, or the presentation of any rights under, or in any way relating to or arising out of the manufacture, ownership, ordering, purchasing, delivery, control, acceptance, lease, financing, possession, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition or use of the Collateral (including, without limitation, intent or other defects, whether or not discoverable), the violation of any laws of any country, state or other governmental body or unit, or any tort (including, without limitation, any claims, arising or imposed under the doctrine of strict liability, or for or on account of injury to or the death of any Person (including any Indemnities)), or property damage or contract claim; and (viii) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, and whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action, or proceeding (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY INDEMNITEE; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any claim caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 12.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Facility Party, their respective directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person or any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Each Facility Party agrees not to assert any claim against the Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, any other Protected Party, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents and advisers, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising

116 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

out of or otherwise relating to the Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Facility Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the agreements and obligations of the Facility Parties contained in this Section 12.05 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments hereunder.

The Facility Parties (other than any successor Manager appointed pursuant to this Agreement that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower) shall, no later than 20 days following demand, reimburse any Indemnitee for any Indemnified Liability referred to above or, upon request from any Indemnitee, shall pay such amounts directly. Any payment made to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 12.05 shall be adjusted to such amount as will, after taking into account all Taxes imposed with respect to the accrual or receipt of such payment (as the same may be increased pursuant to this sentence), equal the amount of the payment. To the extent that any Facility Party in fact indemnifies any Indemnitee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.05 (other than in respect of Taxes), such Facility Party shall be subrogated to such Indemnitee’s rights in the affected transaction and shall have a right to determine the settlement of claims therein.

If a claim of the type described above is made against an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee has notice thereof, such Indemnitee shall promptly, upon receiving such notice, give notice of such claim to the Borrower; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release any Facility Party from any of its obligations hereunder. The Facility Parties shall be entitled, in each case at their sole cost and expense, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to the relevant Indemnitee: (i) in any judicial or administrative proceeding that involves solely a claim of the type described above, to assume responsibility for and control thereof, (ii) in any judicial or administrative proceeding involving a claim of the type described above and other claims related or unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than with respect to Taxes), to assume responsibility for and control of such claim, to the extent that the same may be and is severed from such other claims and (iii) in any other case, to be consulted by such Indemnitee with respect to judicial proceedings subject to the control of such Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, no Facility Party shall be entitled to assume responsibility for and control of any such judicial or administrative proceedings: (A) while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) if such proceedings will involve any risk of criminal liability or a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of any part of the Collateral; or (C) to the extent that the Indemnitee has defenses available to it which are not available to any Facility Party and allowing such Facility Party to assert such defenses will be prejudicial to the interests of such Indemnitee; provided that the limitation on the Facility Parties’ ability to control such judicial or administrative proceeding shall apply only to those aspects of such proceeding which address issues with respect to which such defenses are available.

The relevant Indemnitee shall supply the Borrower with such information reasonably requested by the Borrower as is necessary or advisable for either Facility Party to control or participate in any proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 12.05. Such Indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any covered claim without the prior

117 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be protected with respect to such covered claim.

This Section 12.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

SECTION 12.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that no Facility Party may assign or transfer any of its interests and obligations without the prior written consent of either the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as the terms set forth in Section 12.03 may require;

(b) Assignments. Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans and its Commitments); provided, however, that

(i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee;

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of an existing Lender or any Approved Fund (A) the aggregate amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not, without the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, be less than $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or such other amount as shall equal the assigning Lender’s entire Commitment) and (B) after giving effect to such assignment, unless otherwise consented to by the Borrower, the aggregate amount of the Commitment and/or Loans of the assigning Lender shall not be less than $2,500,000 (unless the assigning Lender shall have assigned its entire Commitment and/or the entire balance of the outstanding Loans); and

(iii) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent for its acceptance an Assignment and Assumption in the form of Exhibit C, together with any Note subject to such assignment and a processing fee of $3,500, payable or agreed between the assigning Lender and the assignee.

(c) Assignment and Assumption. By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption in accordance with this Section 12.06, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and the assignee warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or the financial

118 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

condition of the Facility Parties or the performance or observance by any Facility Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such assignment agreement; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as are delegated to each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Upon execution, delivery, and acceptance of such Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of such assignment, have the obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.06(c), the assignor, the Agent and the Facility Parties shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are issued to the assignor and the assignee. If the assignee is not a U.S. Person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, it shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 3.01.

(d) Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.06(d), to (i) maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Agent will record the Commitments from time to time of each Lender, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender and to (ii) retain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Section 12.06(d). Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan and the Note evidencing the same is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. With respect to any Lender, the assignment or other transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made and any Note issued pursuant to this Agreement shall not be effective until such assignment or other transfer is recorded on the Register and, except to the extent provided in this Section 12.06(d), otherwise complies with Section 12.06, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferring Lender with respect to such Commitments, Loans and Notes shall remain owing to the transferring Lender. The registration of assignment or other transfer of all or part of any Commitments, Loans and Notes for a Lender shall be recorded by the Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of

119 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption and payment of the administrative fee referred to in Section 12.06(b)(iii). The Register shall be available at the offices where kept by the Agent for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent.

(e) Participations. Each Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to one or more Persons in all or a portion of its rights, obligations or rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or the Loans owing to it and any Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall be entitled to the benefit of right of setoff contained in Section 12.08 and the yield protection provisions contained in Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04 to the same extent that the Lender from which such participant acquired its participation would be entitled to the benefits of such yield protections; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any participant pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04 in an amount which exceeds the amount that would have been payable thereunder to such Lender had such Lender not sold such participation and (iv) the Facility Parties, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Facility Parties relating to the Obligations owing to such Lender and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on such Loans or Notes, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on such Loans or Notes or extending its Commitment). Each Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a participant shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 12.06(e), record in book entries maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participating interest of each participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interests (“Participant Register”). The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower to the extent necessary for the Borrower to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1 of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in a Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f) Other Assignments. Any Lender may at any time (i) assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Loans or Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Loans or Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender; provided that no such assignment, option, pledge or security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such Federal Reserve Bank or other Person to which such option, pledge or assignment has been made for such Lender as a party hereto.

120 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

(g) Information. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning any Facility Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 12.07.

SECTION 12.07 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority with jurisdiction over the Agent, the Collateral Agent or Lender, as applicable; (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (iv) to any other party to this Agreement; (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any Eligible Assignee of or participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrower; (vii) with the written consent of the Borrower; (viii) to the extent such information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; or (ix) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of any Facility Party relating to any Facility Party or its respective business, other than any such information that is available to the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by or on behalf of a Facility Party; provided that, in the case of information received from or on behalf of a Facility Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

121 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

SECTION 12.08 Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender (and each of its Affiliates) is authorized at any time and from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all of such rights being hereby expressly waived), to set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or specific) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, branches, agencies or Affiliates of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Guarantor against obligations and liabilities of the Borrower or the Guarantor to the Lenders hereunder, under the Loans and Notes, under the other Loan Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether the Agent or the Lenders shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender subsequent thereto. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent permitted by law any Person purchasing a participation in the Loans and Commitments hereunder may exercise all rights of set-off with respect to its participation interest as fully as if such Person were a Lender hereunder and any such set-off shall reduce the amount owed by the Borrower or the Guarantor to the Lender.

SECTION 12.09 Interest Rate Limitation. The Agent, the Lenders and the Facility Parties and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by Applicable Law from time to time in effect. Neither any Facility Party nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Credit Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under Applicable Law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this Section 12.09 shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. The Lenders and the Agent expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Credit Obligation is accelerated. If (i) the maturity of any Credit Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (ii) any Credit Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (iii) any Lender of any other holder of any or all of the Credit Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Credit Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be charged by Applicable Law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Credit Obligations or, at such Lender’s or holder’s option, promptly returned to the Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law, the Agent, the Lenders and the Facility Parties (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under Applicable Law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium

122 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the Credit Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under Applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the maximum amount of interest permitted under Applicable Law. As used in this Section 12.09 the term “Applicable Law” includes, without limitation, the laws of the State of Ohio, the laws of the State of New York or the laws of the United States of America, whichever laws allow the greatest interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

SECTION 12.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

SECTION 12.11 Integration. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

SECTION 12.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof and any subsequent making or deemed making thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

SECTION 12.13 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Facility Party is a party that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 12.14 Replacement of Lenders. If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.07, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and

123 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid (or cause the fee to be paid) to the Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 12.06(b);

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

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that, if the Borrower elect to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 12.15, it shall promptly execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Agent any Note (if a Note has been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Lender that acts as the Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 11.09.

SECTION 12.15 Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 12.16 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Agent or the Collateral Agent (or to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Protected Parties), or the Agent or the Collateral Agent enforces any security interests or exercises its rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are

124 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

SECTION 12.17 Performance by the Agent. If any Facility Party fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the Management Agreement in a timely fashion, the Agent shall be entitled, but not obliged, to perform such obligation at the expense of the Borrower and without waiving any rights that it may have with respect to such breach.

SECTION 12.18 Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Protected Party is an express third party beneficiary hereof.

SECTION 12.19 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. (I) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York in New York County, or of the United States for the Southern District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Facility Party hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditional, the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such courts. Each Facility Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

SECTION 12.20 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT

125 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

SECTION 12.21 The Patriot Act. The Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act and any comparable law applicable to any Lender, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow the Agent and/or any Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 12.22 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

SECTION 12.23 Updates to Schedules. If any of the information or disclosures provided on any of the Schedules attached hereto become outdated or incorrect in any material respect, the Borrower shall, upon the reasonable request of the Agent, provide the Agent in writing with such revisions or updates to such Schedule as may be necessary or appropriate to update or correct same. No Schedule shall be deemed to have been amended, modified or superseded by any such correction or update, nor shall any breach of warranty or representation resulting from the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such Schedule be deemed to have been cured thereby, unless and until the Required Lenders, in their sole and absolute discretion, shall have accepted in writing such revisions or updates to such Schedule; provided, however, that the Borrower may, with the prior written consent of the Agent, modify Schedule 7.02 by deleting therefrom the Stencil Number and Car Type of any Railcar listed in such Schedule that has been damaged, destroyed or otherwise rendered unserviceable and thus ceases to serve as collateral for the Debt of Andersons and by inserting into such Schedule the Stencil Number and Car Type of another Railcar of the Borrower,

126 Amended and Restated Revolving Asset Based Loan Agreement

approved by the Agent in writing, that will serve as substitute or replacement collateral for such Debt of Andersons.
