If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse the Issuing Lender in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrowers receive notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is greater than $1,000,000, the Borrowers may, notwithstanding the failure to satisfy the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Percentage thereof.

(g)           Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section shall be joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement such draft or other document being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, each Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender (as finally determined

36

by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination, and that:

(i)            the Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(ii)           the Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(iii)          this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

(h)           Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in writing of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(i)            Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Loans; provided that, if the Borrowers fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then Section 3.02(b) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(j)            Replacement of the Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.03(d). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and

37

(ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(k)           Cash Collateralization. If either (i) the maturity of the outstanding Loans has been accelerated as provided in Section 11.02 or 11.03, or, in the event that no Loans are then outstanding, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Required Lenders direct the Commitments to be canceled, or (ii) the Borrowers shall be required to provide cover for LC Exposure pursuant to Section 3.01(c), the Borrowers shall immediately deposit into a cash collateral account established at a banking institution selected by the Administrative Agent (the “Collateral Account”) an amount in cash equal to, in the case of clause (i) of this paragraph, the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and, in the case of cover pursuant to Section 3.10(c), the amount required under Section 3.01(c), and such deposits shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, provided that, in the case of deposits made pursuant to Section 3.01(c), such amounts shall be upon receipt of a certification by a Borrower that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.02(a), (b) and (c) other than Section 6.02(c)(iii) could be satisfied.

The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Collateral Account. Moneys in the Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing 100% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.

CERTAIN LIBO RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS

SECTION 4.01       LIBO Rate Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such LIBO Rate Loan shall, after the determination thereof, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding LIBO Rate Loans payable to such Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.

42

SECTION 4.02       Deposits Unavailable. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

(a)           Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to it in its relevant market; or

(b)           by reason of circumstances affecting its relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to LIBO Rate Loans;

then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Sections 2.01, 2.03 and 2.04 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

SECTION 4.03       Increased LIBO Rate Loan Costs, etc. The Borrowers agree to reimburse each Lender for any increase in the cost to such Lender of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Lender in respect of, such Lender’s Commitments and the making of Credit Extensions or participations in Letters of Credit hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans) that arise in connection with any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in after the Closing Date of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes, which are governed exclusively by Sections 4.05 and 4.06, respectively. Each affected Credit Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Credit Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrowers directly to such Credit Party within ten (10) days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.04       Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan) as a result of

(a)           any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise;

(b)           any Loans not being made as LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor;

43

(c)                                  any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor; or

(d)                                 any LIBO Rate Loans not being prepaid in accordance with any notice delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(a) (as a result of a revocation of such notice or as a result of such payment not being made);

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall, within ten (10) days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.05                              Increased Capital Costs. If, after the Closing Date, any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority (other than changes with respect to Taxes, which are governed exclusively by Section 4.06) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and such Lender or Issuing Lender determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions or any participation in a Letter of Credit made by such Lender or Issuing Lender is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice from time to time by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall within five (5) days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Lender or Issuing Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Lender or Issuing Lender as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. In determining such amount, such Lender or Issuing Lender may use any reasonable method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

SECTION 4.06                              Taxes. Each Borrower covenants and agrees as follows:

(a)                                  Any and all payments by such Borrower under each Financing Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, except to the extent any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted by law. In the event that any Taxes are required by law to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to or on behalf of any Lender or any other Person under any Financing Document, then:

(i)                                     subject to clauses (f) and (g), if such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount of such payment shall be increased as may be necessary such that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Non-Excluded Taxes, in an amount that is not less than the amount provided for in such Financing Document (and for the avoidance of doubt, it shall be the

44

sole responsibility of such Borrower to pay such increased amounts without regard to whether such Taxes are imposed on such Borrower or another party); and

(ii)                                  such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall withhold the full amount of such Non-Excluded Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i), if applicable) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Non-Excluded Taxes in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b)                                 In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any and all Other Taxes imposed on or with respect to any Lender, the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with Applicable Law.

The Administrative Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Lender upon request therefor.

(d)                                 [Reserved].

(e)                                  Subject to clause (g), the Borrowers shall indemnify any Lender, the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of such Person. In addition, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Issuing Lender, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for any incremental Non-Excluded Taxes that are paid or payable by such Person as a result of any failure of the Borrowers to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes as required by clause (a) when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority. With respect to indemnification for Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes actually paid by the Issuing Lender, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date such Person makes written demand therefor accompanied by documentation evidencing payment of such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes.

(f)                                    The Issuing Lender and each Lender shall deliver documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether such Issuing Lender or Lender is subject to withholding, backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender and the Issuing Lender other than a Non-Domestic Credit Party shall deliver, on or prior to the date which such Lender becomes a Lender under or with respect to this Agreement (and promptly from time to time thereafter if any form

45

previously delivered becomes inaccurate or upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding tax on payments made under the Financing Documents. Additionally, each Non-Domestic Credit Party, on or prior to the date on which such Non-Domestic Credit Party becomes a Lender hereunder (and promptly from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, but only for so long as such Non-Domestic Credit Party is legally entitled to do so), shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent either:

(i)                                     two properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming eligibility for treaty benefits), W-8ECI and/or W-8IMY, together with any necessary attachments, or an applicable successor form; or

(ii)                                  in the case of a Non-Domestic Credit Party that is not legally entitled to deliver either form listed in clause (f)(i) and is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is relying on the “portfolio interest” exemption, (x) a certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of a duly authorized officer of such Non-Domestic Credit Party to the effect that such Non-Domestic Credit Party is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two properly completed and duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and/or W-8IMY or applicable successor form, in each case certifying that such Non-Domestic Credit Party is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes without deduction or withholding of any Non-Excluded Taxes.

Each such Non-Domestic Credit Party further agrees to deliver, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, to each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent additional copies of such foregoing relevant form on or before the date such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event (including a change in Applicable Lending Office) requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, in each case certifying that such Non-Domestic Credit Party is entitled to an exemption from withholding or deduction for or on account of Non-Excluded Taxes in connection with payments under this Agreement or under any of the Notes. Each such Non-Domestic Credit Party shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of any changes in circumstances that would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(g)                                 The Borrowers shall not be obligated to gross up any payments to any Lender or the Issuing Lender, pursuant to clause (a)(i), or to indemnify any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (e), in respect of Taxes to the extent imposed as a

46

result of (i) the failure of such Lender or the Issuing Lender to deliver to the Borrowers the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender or Issuing Lender, pursuant to clause (f), or (ii) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender or the Issuing Lender being untrue or inaccurate in any material respect; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be obligated to gross up any payments to any such Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (e), in respect of United States federal withholding Taxes if (A) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or Exemption Certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other Applicable Law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the date on which such Lender or the Issuing Lender became a Lender hereunder, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in a material respect or (B) the obligation to gross up payments to any such Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i) or to indemnify any such Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (e) is with respect to an assignee Lender as a result of an assignment made at the request of the Borrowers.

(h)                                 If the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.06, it shall pay to the Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 4.06 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that (i) the Borrowers, upon request of the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority and (ii) nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or the Administrative Agent to arrange its Tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to claim any Tax refund or to make available its Tax returns or disclose any information relating to its Tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. If a payment to a Lender or Issuing Lender under any Financing

47

Document would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Issuing Lender fails 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 or Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent (A) a certification signed by the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or controller and (B) other documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent sufficient for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender or Issuing Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements.

SECTION 4.07                              Payments, Computations, etc. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Financing Document, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent. All payments shall be made in Dollars in New York, New York without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrowers, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent. All interest (including interest on LIBO Rate Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of three hundred sixty (360) days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan, three hundred sixty-five (365) days or, if appropriate, three hundred sixty-six (366) days).

SECTION 4.08                              Sharing of Payments. If any Credit Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or LC Disbursement (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 4.03, 4.04, 4.05 or 4.06) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Credit Parties, such Credit Party shall purchase from the other Credit Parties such participations in Credit Extensions or LC Disbursements made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Credit Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Credit Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Credit Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Credit Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Credit Party shall repay to the purchasing Credit Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Credit Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Credit Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Credit Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Credit Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Credit Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Credit Party purchasing a participation from another Credit Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Credit Party were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar

48

law any Credit Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Credit Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Credit Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 4.09                              Setoff. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender shall have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) each Borrower hereby grants to each Lender and the Issuing Lender a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts (other than any trust accounts comprised entirely of moneys held in trust for the benefit of Persons other than the Borrowers or its Affiliates) or moneys of each Borrower then or thereafter maintained with such Lender or any of its branches or Affiliates; provided, however, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.08. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and the Issuing Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under Applicable Law or otherwise) which such Lender or Issuing Lender may have.

SECTION 4.10                              Change of Lending Office. Each Credit Party agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Section 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06, or if any adoption or change of the type described in Section 4.01 shall occur with respect to it, it will, if requested by the Borrowers, file a certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrowers and/or use reasonable efforts (in either case, consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as determined in its sole discretion) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the filing of such certificate or document or the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrowers to make payments under Section 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06, or would eliminate or materially reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 4.01; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the right of any Person provided in Section 4.01, 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06.

SECTION 4.11                              Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) makes a demand upon the Borrowers for (or if the Borrowers is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06 (and the payment of such amounts are, and are likely to continue to be, more onerous in the reasonable judgment of the Borrowers than with respect to the other Lenders), or gives notice pursuant to Section 4.01 requiring a conversion of such Affected Lender’s LIBO Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or suspending such Lender’s obligation to make Loans as, or to convert Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans, the Borrowers may, within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Borrowers of such demand or notice, as the case may be, give notice (a “Replacement Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to cause such Affected Lender to sell all or any portion of its Loans, Commitments and/or Notes to another financial institution or other Person (a “Replacement Lender”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided, however, that no Replacement Notice may be given by the Borrowers if (i) such replacement conflicts with any Applicable Law or regulation, (ii) any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement

49

or (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken any necessary action under Section 4.05 or 4.06 (if applicable) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.05 or 4.06. If the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such Replacement Notice, notify the Borrowers and such Affected Lender in writing that the Replacement Lender is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not being required where the Replacement Lender is already a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender), then such Affected Lender shall, subject to the payment of any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.04, assign, in accordance with Section 13.11, the portion of its Commitments, Loans, and/or Notes (if any), and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Financing Documents designated in the replacement notice to such Replacement Lender; provided, however, that (i) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender, (ii) the purchase price paid by such Replacement Lender shall be in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Loans designated in the Replacement Notice, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.03, 4.05 and 4.06), owing to such Affected Lender hereunder and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent in connection with such assignment and assumption (including the processing fees described in Section 13.11). Upon the effective date of an assignment described above, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes under the Financing Documents.

SECTION 4.12                              Limitation on Additional Amounts, etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06 of this Agreement, unless a Lender or the Issuing Lender gives notice to the Borrowers that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within sixty (60) days after the later of (a) the date the Lender or the Issuing Lender incurs the respective increased costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or (b) the date such Lender or the Issuing Lender has actual knowledge of its incurrence of their respective increased costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, then such Lender shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount by the Borrowers pursuant to Sections 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06, as the case may be, to the extent the costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs sixty (60) days prior to such Lender or the Issuing Lender giving notice to the Borrowers that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to Sections 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06, as the case may be. This Section shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than Sections 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06.

(c)                                  As of the Amendment No. 2 Closing Date, the entities listed on Schedule 7.01(c) are all of the Non-Controlled Project Entities in which any Borrower indirectly owns an ownership interest. As of the Amendment No. 2 Closing Date, the Borrowers directly or indirectly own the percentage of outstanding Capital Stock of each of the Non-Controlled Project Entities set forth opposite the name of such Non-Controlled Project Entity on Schedule 7.01(c) hereto. To the best knowledge of the Borrowers, each of the Non-Controlled Project Entities (i) has been duly organized, (ii) is validly existing and (iii) is in good standing as a corporation or limited partnership, as the case may be, under the laws of the jurisdiction of their respective organization, except, in the case of clause (iii), where the failure to be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE XII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 12.01                        Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and to enter into and act on its behalf under the other Financing Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of

72

this Article XII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, and no Borrower shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

SECTION 12.02                        Rights as a Lender.

(a)                                  Each Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

(b)                                 Each Lender understands that each Person serving as the Administrative Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Agent’s Group”) is engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Section 12.02 as “Activities”) and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of one or more of the Subject Parties or their respective Affiliates. Furthermore, the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Subject Parties and their Affiliates and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in the Borrowers, another Subject Party or their respective Affiliates), including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of one or more of the Subject Parties or their Affiliates. Each Lender understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the Agent’s Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning the Subject Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Subject Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents) which information may not be available to any of the Lenders that are not members of the Agent’s Group. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other member of the Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Lender or use on behalf of the Lenders, nor be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Subject Party or any Affiliate of any Subject Party) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that the Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Lender such documents as are expressly required by any Financing Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders.

(c)                                  Each Lender further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent’s Group or their respective customers (including the Subject Parties and their Affiliates) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Lenders (including the interests of the Lenders hereunder and under the other Financing Documents). Each Lender agrees that no member of

73

the Agent’s Group is or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of any Person serving as the Administrative Agent being a member of the Agent’s Group, and that each member of the Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation with or notification to any Lender. None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Financing Document, (ii) the receipt by the Agent’s Group of information (including Information) concerning the Subject Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Subject Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents) or (iii) any other matter, shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including any duty of trust or confidence) owing by the Administrative Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group to any Lender including any such duty that would prevent or restrict the Agent’s Group from acting on behalf of customers (including the Subject Parties or their Affiliates) or for its own account.

SECTION 12.03              Duties of Agents; Exculpatory Provisions.

(a)                                  The Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Financing Documents are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Financing Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability or that is contrary to any Financing Document or Applicable Law.

(b)                                 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Financing Documents, including Article XI or Section 13.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or of the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default unless and until the Borrowers or any Lender or the Issuing Lender shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent describing such Default and such event or events.

(c)                                  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent’s Group shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty, representation or other information made or supplied in or in connection with this Agreement, any other Financing Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Financing Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or

74

purported to be created by the Security Documents or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(d)                                 Nothing in this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall require the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to each Agent that such Lender is solely responsible for any such checks such Lender is required to carry out and that such Lender may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by such Agent or any of its Related Parties.

SECTION 12.04              Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by the Administrative Agent to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by the Administrative Agent to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Loans that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loans and, in the case of a Credit Extension, such Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Credit Extension. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Lenders or the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 12.05              Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Financing Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article XII and Section 13.03 (as though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” under the Financing Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

SECTION 12.06              Resignation of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Issuing Lender, the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, and such successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall

75

have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that, if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section (provided that the retiring Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion agree to continue to perform any or all of such functions as nominee until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for in this Section). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Financing Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 13.03 and 13.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 12.07              Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent or Other Lenders.

(a)                                  Each Lender confirms the Administrative Agent, each other Lender and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Affiliates) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters) of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making its Loans hereunder and (z) taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making its Loans hereunder and under the other Financing Documents is suitable and appropriate for it.

(b)                                 Each Lender acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, (ii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, made its own appraisal and investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this Agreement based on such documents and information, as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, continue to be solely

76

responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit analysis and decision to take or not take action under, this Agreement and the other Financing Documents based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, which may include, in each case:

(i)                                     the financial condition, status and capitalization of the Borrowers and each other Subject Party;

(ii)                                  the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and each other Financing Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Financing Document;

(iii)                               determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of its Loans and the form and substance of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition;

(iv)                              the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any other information delivered by the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or by any of their respective Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Document, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Financing Document.

SECTION 12.08              Posting of Approved Electronic Communications.

(a)                                  So long as RBC or any of its Affiliates is the Administrative Agent, the Approved Electronic Communications may be delivered to the Administrative Agent in an electronic medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by facsimile to (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇. Each of the Lenders and each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make such Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders by posting such notices on IntraLinksTM or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b)                                 Each of the Lenders and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders and each Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c)                                  THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE

77

AGENT’S GROUP WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE AGENT’S GROUP IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

Any Lender may, (a) upon notice to the Borrowers and Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time, assign to (A) any Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender or (B) any Approved Fund and (b) with written consent of the Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to an Eligible Assignee, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments or Loans); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)                                     Minimum Amounts.

(A)                              in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)                                in any case not described in clause (A) above, the amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is

83

delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $10,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii)           Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not already a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

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

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 13.11, from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement provided that no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payments under Section 4.06 than the applicable assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the interest so assigned, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 13.11.

(c)           Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans (and any interest thereon) owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, each Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

84

(d)           Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrowers or Subsidiaries or the Non-Controlled Project Entities) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided 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 and (iii) the Borrowers, each Agent, the Issuing Lender 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.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest, or (v) release any Property covered by any Security Document, except in connection with Restricted Payments permitted hereunder or as otherwise provided herein or in the Security Documents. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 8.01(a), 13.03 and 13.04 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 13.11, provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payments under Section 4.06 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to such participation sold to such Participant. Each Lender having sold a participation in its rights or Obligations under this Agreement, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of such Participants and the rights, interests or obligations of such Participants in any Obligation, in any Commitment and in any right to receive any payments hereunder.

(e)           Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 13.13     Independence of Covenants and Default Provisions. All covenants and default provisions contained in this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be given

85

independent effect such that, in the event a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants or default provisions, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant or default provision shall not, unless expressly so provided in such first covenant or default provision, avoid the occurrence of a Default if such action is taken or such condition exists.

SECTION 13.21     Borrowers’ Obligations.

(a)           Each Borrower agrees that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Borrowers will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever and each Borrower jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, joint and several liability with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations of each other Borrower, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. All Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the delivery

88

(b)           The joint and several obligations of each Borrower hereunder are of payment and not of collection and are independent of the obligations of any other Borrower and a separate action or actions may be brought against each Borrower whether or not action is brought against any other Borrower. The Administrative Agent may enforce this Agreement and the other Financing Documents against any Borrower without first making demand upon or instituting collection proceedings against any other Borrower. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefits of any statutes of limitations affecting its liability hereunder. Each Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to the obligations of any other Borrower and any requirement that any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Borrower or entity.

(c)           The unconditional liability of each Borrower for the entire Obligations shall not be impaired by any event whatsoever, including, but not limited to, the merger, consolidation, dissolution, cessation of business or liquidation of any Borrower; the financial decline or bankruptcy of any Borrower; the failure of any other party to guarantee the Obligations or to provide collateral therefor; the Lenders’ compromise or settlement with or without release of any Borrower; the Administrative Agent’s release of any collateral for the Obligations, with or without notice to the Borrowers; the Administrative Agent’s or Banks’ failure to file suit against any Borrower (regardless of whether such Borrower is becoming insolvent, is believed to be about to leave the state or jurisdiction or any other circumstance); the Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ failure to give any Borrower notice of default; the unenforceability of the Obligations against any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary due to bankruptcy discharge, counterclaim, or for any other reason; the Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ acceleration of the obligations at any time; the extension, modification or renewal of the obligations or any Financing Document; the Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ failure to undertake or exercise diligence in collection efforts against any party or property; the termination of any relationship of any Borrower with any other Borrower, including, but not limited to, any relationship of commerce or ownership; any Borrower’s change of name or use of any name other than the name used to identify such Borrower in this Agreement; or any Borrower’s use of the credit extended for any purpose whatsoever.

(d)           Each Borrower agrees not to seek payment directly or indirectly from another Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary through a claim of indemnity, contribution, or otherwise with respect to the Obligations, until the Obligations have been repaid in full and the Commitments have terminated.

(e)           In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations hereunder of any Borrower would otherwise be held or be determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of the obligations, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability of

89

such Borrower shall, without any further action by such Borrower, any Lender, the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors determined in such action or proceeding.
