2.2 The Loans

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, on the Closing Date and thereafter from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date each Lender Group shall make Loans to the Company in an amount equal to such Lender Group’s Pro Rata Share of each Loan requested, and the Swingline Lender shall make Swingline Loans to the Company in the amount requested.

(b) Subject to the foregoing and to the limitations set forth herein, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow the Loans, including the Swingline Loans, hereunder.

(b) Each Borrowing shall be in a minimum principal amount equal to such amount as will ensure that:

(i) the aggregate amount advanced by the Lenders in respect of such Borrowing would not be less than (in the case of the initial Borrowing) $10,000,000 and (thereafter) $1,000,000 (provided that such subsequent minimum amount will not apply to the extent that at the time of any Borrowing hereunder the aggregate amount available to be drawn from the Lenders as provided in this Agreement is less than such minimum amount at such time); and

(ii) in respect of each Loan, the amount advanced by the Lenders would be an integral multiple of $1,000.

(c) The amount of a Borrowing made on any Borrowing Date shall be less than or equal to the then-applicable Maximum Available Borrowing.

(d) Each Loan made by the Lenders hereunder shall be denominated in U.S. Dollars.

3. BORROWING PROCEDURES

3.1 Borrowing Request

(a) The Company shall request a Borrowing hereunder by submitting to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) a written notice, substantially in the form of Schedule 2

(each, a “Borrowing Request”) no later than 8:00 a.m. (New York time) (or, if such Borrowing Request relates solely to a Swingline Loan, 12:00 noon New York time) (x) if the amount of the proposed Borrowing is $40,000,000 or less (exclusive of the Swingline Loan requested on such day, if any), on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing, and (y) if the amount of the proposed Borrowing exceeds $40,000,000 (exclusive of the Swingline Loan requested on such day, if any), one (1) Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing (each such date, a “Borrowing Date”). Promptly after its receipt thereof, each Funding Agent shall submit a copy of each Borrowing Request to the Lenders in its Lender Group.

(b) Each Borrowing Request shall:

(i) specify the desired amounts for the requested Loans, and specify whether a Swingline Loan is requested and the desired amount of such requested Swingline Loan;

(ii) specify the desired Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day);

(iii) specify the Interest Period which shall be the same for each Loan making up such Borrowing and shall end on a Business Day occurring not later than sixty-two (62) days after such Borrowing Date; and

(iv) certify that, after giving effect to the proposed Borrowing, the Maximum Available Borrowing will not be exceeded on such Borrowing Date.

(c) Only one Borrowing may be requested in each Borrowing Request.

(d) Only one Borrowing Request shall be delivered in respect of each Borrowing Date.

(e) Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Company.

(f) Borrowings shall be made subject to the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6.2.

3.2 Lenders’ Commitment

(a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) requested by, or on behalf of, the Company in a Borrowing Request shall be made by the Lender Groups in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of such Loan. The Conduit Lender, if any, in each such Lender Group may fund, and if not, the Committed Lenders members of such Lender Group shall fund, such Lender Group’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan.

(b) The obligations of any Committed Lender to make Loans hereunder are several from the obligations of any other Committed Lenders. The failure of any Committed Lender to make Loans hereunder shall not release the obligations of any other Committed Lender to make Loans hereunder, but no Committed Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Committed Lender to make any Loan hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) a Conduit Lender shall not be obligated to fund any Loan under any circumstances and (ii) a Committed Lender shall not be obligated to fund any Loan:

(i) at any time on or after the Facility Termination Date;

(ii) at any time a Facility Event has occurred and is continuing or would arise as a consequence of making such Loan; or

(iii) if such Committed Lender’s Lender Group’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan would exceed such Committed Lender’s Available Commitment.

3.3 Disbursement of Funds

On each Borrowing Date, (i) each Lender Group shall remit an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Loans (other than the Swingline Loans, if any) to be made on such Borrowing Date, as determined above, to the Company Receipts Account (or as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent in writing) in immediately available funds and (ii) the Swingline Lender shall remit an amount equal to the Swingline Loans to be made on such Borrowing Date, as determined herein, to the Company Receipts Account (or as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender in writing) in immediately available funds.

3.4 Swingline Loans

(a) Upon notice from the Company to the Swingline Lender in a Borrowing Request as described in Section 3.1 above, and subject to the satisfaction of the condition to all Borrowings set forth in Section 6 hereof, the Swingline Lender hereby agrees to make loans (such Loans, the “Swingline Loans”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Loan Amount.

(b) The Committed Lenders hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agree to fund to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender, in lawful money of the United States and in same day funds, not later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day of such Committed Lender’s related Funding Agent’s receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent (provided that if any Funding Agent will receive such notice at or prior to 9:00 a.m. New York time on a Business Day, such funding will be made by such Committed Lender on such Business Day), such Committed Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Loan (which Loan will be deemed to be requested by the Company) in the principal amount of such portion of the Swingline Loan which is required to be paid to the Swingline Lender under this Section 3.4(b) (regardless of whether the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 6 are then satisfied and whether or not any Termination Event or Potential Termination Event exists or all or any of the Loans have been accelerated, but subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.4). The proceeds of any such Loan will be immediately paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swingline Lender for application to the Swingline Loan. Notwithstanding anything else herein to

the contrary, the Conduit Lender member of a Lender Group may, but shall not be obligated to, fund the Loan described in this Section 3.4(b) in lieu of a Loan made by the related Committed Lender. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Company of a copy of any notice delivered to the Committed Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.4(b), provided, that any failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Committed Lenders to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.4(b).

(c) In the event that a Termination Event occurs and either (1) such Termination Event is of the type described in Section 21.1(a) hereof or (2) no further Loans are being made under this Agreement, so long as any such Termination Event is continuing, then, each of the Committed Lenders (other than the Swingline Lender) will be deemed to have irrevocably, unconditionally and immediately purchased a participation in the Swingline Loan from the Swingline Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share multiplied by the total amount of the Swingline Loan outstanding. Each Committed Lender will effect such purchase by making available the amount of such Committed Lender’s participation in the Swingline Loan in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent shall direct for the benefit of the Swingline Lender, and the amount funded in respect of such purchase shall be deemed to be a Loan requested by the Company. In the event any Committed Lender fails to make available to the Swingline Lender when due the amount of such Committed Lender’s participation in the Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Committed Lender together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. Each such purchase by a Committed Lender will be made without recourse to the Swingline Lender, without representation or warranty of any kind, and will be effected and evidenced pursuant to documents reasonably acceptable to the Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Committed Lenders under this Section 3.4(c) will be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, will be made under all circumstances and will not be affected, reduced or impaired for any reason whatsoever. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, the Conduit Lender member of a Lender Group may, but shall not be obligated to, fund the participation described in this Section 3.4(c) in lieu of such participation being funded by the related Committed Lender.

(d) The Swingline Loans may be repaid by the Company on a same-day basis as set forth in Section 4.2 below.

4. REPAYMENT; CHANGES TO COMMITMENTS; PREPAYMENT

4.1 Repayment of Loans

(a) The Company shall repay the outstanding principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date.

(b) If all or part of an existing Loan made to the Company is to be repaid from the proceeds of all or part of a new Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) to be made to the Company, the amount to be repaid by the Company shall be set off against the amount to be advanced by the Lenders in relation to the new

Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) and the party or parties to whom the smaller amount is to be paid shall pay to the other party or parties a sum equal to the difference between the two amounts.

4.2 Payment and Prepayment of Loans

Prior to the repayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans pursuant to Section 4.1 above, the Company:

(a) shall, immediately upon any acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 21.4, repay the amount of the Loans to the extent so accelerated;

(b) shall, if on any date the Percentage Factor exceeds 100%, as determined by reference to the most recent Daily Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement, make a prepayment of the Loans on such date in an amount sufficient to cause the Percentage Factor to be less than or equal to 100%, as determined by reference to such Daily Report;

(c) shall, if on any date the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Loans exceeds the Aggregate Commitment, make a prepayment of the Loans on such date in an amount sufficient to cause the Aggregate Principal Balance to be less than or equal to the Aggregate Commitment, such prepayment to be made solely out of Collections available for such purpose pursuant to Section 17 or 18, as applicable; and

(d) from and after the Facility Termination Date, shall repay the Loans out of Collections available for such purpose pursuant to Section 18.

The Company may, at its option, prepay on any Business Day all or any portion of the Loans upon prior written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such payment; provided, however, that any portion of the Swingline Loan may be prepaid to the Swingline Lender on any Business Day upon written notice delivered not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on such Business Day. Each such notice shall be described in the Daily Report, in the form attached as Schedule 11 and shall (i) specify the aggregate amount of the prepayment to be made on the Loans or Swingline Loans to which such prepayment is to be applied and (ii) specify the Business Day on which the Company will make such prepayment. The amount available in respect of each such prepayment (other than a prepayment in respect of a Swingline Loan) shall be allocated in the following order of priority:

(i) first, if the Percentage Factor exceeds 100%, to the Lenders in each Lender Group, pro rata in accordance with the aggregate Principal Balance of the outstanding Loans made by each Lender Group, in the amount needed to reduce the Percentage Factor to 100%;

(ii) second, if a Nonrenewing Lender Group has outstanding Loans, such prepayment shall be made to the Lenders in each Nonrenewing Lender Group until the aggregate Principal Balance of the Loans of such Nonrenewing Lender Group are reduced to zero; and

(iii) third, to the Lenders in each Lender Group, pro rata in accordance with the aggregate Principal Balance of the outstanding Loans made by each Lender Group.

Each prepayment of the Loans (whether optional or mandatory) must be accompanied by a payment of all accrued and unpaid Interest on the amount prepaid and any other amounts (including amounts payable under Section 10) due hereunder in respect of such prepayment. In the event that derecognition under U.S. GAAP is sought, no optional prepayment shall be made by the Company hereunder except out of Collections.

4.3 Reductions of the Commitments

(a) With effect on any Settlement Date, the Company (or the Master Servicer on behalf of the Company) may, from time to time upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice via electronic mail followed by telephonic confirmation to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent, elect to reduce the Aggregate Commitment (in whole or in part) in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, provided that the Commitment of any Lender may not be reduced below $50,000,000 unless the Aggregate Commitment is reduced to $0; provided, further that after giving effect to any such reduction and any principal payments on the Settlement Date on which such reduction is to take effect, the Aggregate Principal Balance shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment.

(b) Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to Section 4.3(a) shall be applied to the reduction of each Lender’s Commitment in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share.

(c) If a Lender Group becomes a Nonrenewing Lender Group pursuant to Section 4.4 below, the Commitment of each Committed Lender member of such Lender Group shall be zero and the Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced accordingly.

(d) Once the Aggregate Commitment is reduced pursuant to this Section 4.3 it may not subsequently be reinstated without the prior written consent of each Lender.

4.4 Extension of Scheduled Commitment Termination Date.

The Company may deliver an Extension Request in writing to the Administrative Agent not later than sixty (60) days and not sooner than ninety (90) days prior to a Scheduled Commitment Termination Date with respect to the Lenders in any Lender Group, which Extension Request shall be promptly forwarded by the Administrative Agent to each Funding Agent, and by each Funding Agent to the related Lenders. Each Extension Request shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) no Lender shall have an obligation to extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date at any time, and (ii) any such extension with respect to any Lender shall be effective only upon the written agreement of the applicable Funding Agent, such Lender and the Company and an executed copy of such agreement shall be provided to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the effectiveness thereof.

If a Lender Group shall not consent to an Extension Request, such Lender Group shall become a Nonrenewing Lender Group hereunder.

5. USE OF PROCEEDS

5.1 Purpose of Loans

The Company shall use the proceeds of the Loans only in or towards:

(a) paying dividends to Huntsman International LLC, in each case, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.01 of the Contribution Agreement and Section 26.3(m), in an amount up to the outstanding Contribution Value of the Contributed Receivables and other Receivables Assets related thereto, as identified under the distributable assets ledger maintained by the Master Servicer under the terms of the Contribution Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the Company shall not use all or any portion of the proceeds of any Loan to pay a dividend with respect to outstanding Contribution Value for any Receivable that was originated by any Originator with respect to which an Originator Termination Event has occurred and is continuing; and

(b) refinancing maturing Loans;

provided, that, this Section 5.1 shall not restrict the Company from making, other than from proceeds of the Loans, Restricted Payments which are otherwise permitted hereunder under Section 26.3(m).

PART 5 COSTS OF UTILIZATION

7. INTEREST

7.1 Calculation of Interest

(a) On or before the date that is three (3) Business Days immediately before each Interest Payment Date (or such lesser number of days as may be indicated in a circumstance where the Interest Payment Date falls less than three (3) Business Days from a funding date for a Loan), each Funding Agent shall furnish the Administrative Agent and the Master Servicer with an invoice (addressed to the Company) setting forth the amount of the accrued and unpaid Interest on each Loan funded by the Lender in such Funding Agent’s Lender Group for the relevant Interest Period together with the aggregate amount due to it for each such Interest Period.

(b) The amount of Interest payable by the Company to each Lender for each Interest Period in respect of each Loan shall be the aggregate of the amounts due to such Lender calculated as follows:

IR x PB x DCC

Where:

“IR” = the applicable Interest Rate for each day in the Interest Period;

“PB” = is the part of the Aggregate Principal Balance advanced by that Lender in respect of the relevant Loan; and

“DCC” = 1/360.

7.2 Payment of Interest

The Company shall pay each Lender (or the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders) accrued (but unpaid) Interest on each Loan on the next Interest Payment Date that occurs after the Borrowing Date relating to such Loan.

7.3 Default interest

(a) If the Company fails to pay any amount payable by it under this Agreement on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at the relevant Default Interest Rate payable on demand by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Funding Agent.

(b) Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period but will remain immediately due and payable.

7.4 Interest Periods

(a) An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Facility Termination Date.

(b) Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the Borrowing Date applicable to such Loan.

(c) Each Loan shall have one Interest Period only.

7.5 Mandatory Costs

Each Funding Agent shall provide an initial notice of the inclusion of Mandatory Costs in the determination of the Interest Rate promptly after such Funding Agent becomes aware of the condition giving rise to such Mandatory Costs; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not affect or limit the right to include

Mandatory Costs in the determination of the Interest Rate; provided further that the Company will not be required to compensate a Lender for any Mandatory Costs incurred more than two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the date that such Funding Agent notifies the Company of the change giving rise to such Mandatory Costs and of such Funding Agent’s intention to include such Mandatory Costs in the determination of the Interest Rate; provided, further, that, if the relevant change giving rise to such Mandatory Costs is retroactive, then the two hundred seventy (270) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Each determination of Interest Rate including (if applicable) any Mandatory Costs by each Funding Agent shall be prima facie evidence that such calculation is correct.

8. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

Subject to Section 8.1, if USD LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the specified time on the Quotation Day, the applicable USD LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

8.1 Market disruption

If the Administrative Agent determines, or, if any Committed Purchaser notifies its Funding Agent that it has determined, that funding its Loans at, in the case of the HSBC Lender Group Committed Lender, USD LIBOR or, in the case of the Wachovia Lender Group, LMIR would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Loans at USD LIBOR or LMIR are not available or (ii) USD LIBOR or LMIR does not accurately reflect the cost of funding or maintaining a Loan at USD LIBOR or LMIR, then, the applicable Funding Agent shall suspend the availability of USD LIBOR or LMIR, as the case may be, and the lower of (x) the actual cost of funds applicable to such Lender or (y) the Alternate Base Rate, shall apply to any of the HSBC Lender Group Committed Lender’s or Wachovia Lender Group’s Loans accruing Interest at USD LIBOR or LMIR.

8.2 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a market disruption as described in Section 8.1 occurs, the applicable Funding Agent and the Company (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing to a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

(b) Any alternative basis agreed to pursuant to clause (a) above shall, with the prior consent of the applicable Funding Agent, the Master Servicer and the Company, be binding on all Lenders members of the related Lender Group.

9. ILLEGALITY

perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan:

11. TAXES

11.1 Definitions

(a) In this Agreement:

“Tax Deduction” means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; and

“Tax Payment” means either the increase in a payment made by the Company to a Facility Indemnified Party under Section 11.2 or a payment under Section 11.3.

(b) Unless a contrary intention appears, in this Section 11 a reference to “determines” or “determined” means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the Person making the determination.

11.2 Tax gross-up

(a) The Company shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

(b) The Company shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender (or its Funding Agent) shall notify the Company, the Master Servicer and Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender.

(c) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Company, the amount of the payment due from the Company shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves the recipient of such payment with an amount equal to the payment which would have been received by it if no Tax Deduction had been required.

(d) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or a State thereof or the District of Columbia shall:

(i) deliver to the Master Servicer, the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the related Funding Agent two (2) duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8IMY, or successor applicable form and such other forms, certificates and documentation as may be necessary or appropriate to establish, in each case, that it is entitled to receive payments from the Company without a deduction for U.S. federal withholding tax or with a deduction at a reduced rate. In the case of a Lender that provides an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, such Lender shall either (i) claim the benefit of a treaty that provides for a complete exemption from United States withholding tax for payments of interest or (ii) claim the benefit of the U.S. “portfolio interest exemption” by also providing a certification that is not a “bank” making a loan under this Agreement in the ordinary course of its business within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or a Person related to the Company in a manner described in Sections 871(h)(3)(B), 881(c)(3)(B) or 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;

(ii) deliver to the Master Servicer, the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the related Funding Agent two further copies of any such form or certification (A) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the related Funding Agent and (C) at the

reasonable request of the Master Servicer, the Company, the Collateral Agent or the related Funding Agent; and

(iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the related Funding Agent;

unless any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to, and is in effect on, the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender (or its Funding Agent) so advises the Company and the related Funding Agent. Each Lender shall certify to the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the related Funding Agent at the time it first becomes a Lender, and thereafter to the extent provided by law, (i) all such forms are true and complete, (ii) that it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (iii) that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Person that shall become a Lender or a Participant pursuant to Section 37.17 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide to the Company, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Master Servicer and the related Funding Agent all of the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section; provided that in the case of a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased and such Lender shall provide such forms to the Company with a duly executed Form W-8IMY and withholding statement. If the Company, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent has not received the forms set forth in Section 11.2(d), the Company shall withhold taxes from such payment at the applicable statutory rate and shall not be obliged to make increased payments under Section 11.2 until such forms or other documents are delivered.

(e) Each Lender that is a United States Person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the Company, the Collateral Agent and the related Funding Agent two (2) duly completed copies of the United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor applicable form.

(f) The Company is not required to make any payment under Section 11.2(c) to the extent such payment would be due as the result of the relevant Funding Agent, Lender or Participant not providing the forms required by Section 11.2(d)(i), or 11.2(d)(ii) unless the failure to provide such forms is a result of a change after the date it became a Lender or a Participant under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any Requirement of Law or any published practice or concession of any relevant Taxation Authority.

(g) If the Company is required to make a Tax Deduction, the Company shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax

Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(h) Within thirty (30) days after making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Company shall deliver to each Funding Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lender entitled to that payment that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant Taxation Authority.

(b) Clause (a) shall not apply:

(i) with respect to any Tax assessed on a Facility Indemnified Party:

(B) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Facility Indemnified Party’s Lending Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Facility Indemnified Party; or

(ii) to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

(A) is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 11.2; or

(B) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 11.2 but was not so compensated solely because the exclusion in Section 11.2(f) applied.

(c) A Facility Indemnified Party making, or intending to make a claim under clause (a) above shall promptly notify the Company, the Master Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the related Funding Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim.

11.4 Tax Credit

If the Company makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Facility Indemnified Party determines that:

(a) a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, or to that Tax Payment; and

(b) that Facility Indemnified Party has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit,

the Facility Indemnified Party shall pay an amount to the Company which that Facility Indemnified Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Company (and its employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure, other than any information for which nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

Standards Board (“FASB”), any governmental authority, any central bank or any comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority or agency: (i) that subjects Facility Indemnified Party to any charge or withholding on or with respect to this Agreement or such Facility Indemnified Party’s obligations hereunder or any Program Support Provider to any charge or withholding on or with respect to any Program Support Agreement or a Program Support Provider’s obligations under a Program Support Agreement, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Facility Indemnified Party of any amounts payable hereunder or any Program Support Provider of any amounts payable under any Program Support Agreement (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of an Facility Indemnified Party or taxes excluded by Section 11) or (ii) that imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of a Facility Indemnified Party, or credit extended by a Facility Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement or a Program Support Provider pursuant to Program Support Agreement or (iii) that imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to a Facility Indemnified Party of performing its obligations hereunder or to a Program Support Provider of performing its obligations under a Program Support Agreement, or to reduce the rate of return on a Facility Indemnified Party’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or a Program Support Provider’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Program Support Agreement, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Facility Indemnified Party under this Agreement or a Program Support Provider under a Program Support Agreement or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by such Facility Indemnified Party, as applicable, the Company shall pay to such Facility Indemnified Party, such amounts charged to such Facility Indemnified Party or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Facility Indemnified Party for such increased cost or such reduction.

12.2 Increased cost claims

Such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Failure or delay on the part of any Facility Indemnified Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Facility Indemnified Party’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company will not be required to compensate a Facility Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 12 for any Increased Costs incurred more than

two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the date that such Facility Indemnified Party notifies the Company of the change in any Requirement of Law giving rise to such Increase Costs and of such Facility Indemnified Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the change in any Requirement of Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the two hundred seventy (270) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(v) the sum of the aggregate amount of any Commitment plus the portion of the Principal Balance subject to such participation shall not be less than $10,000,000.

(g) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 37.17, disclose to the Acquiring Lender or Participant or proposed Acquiring Lender or Participant any information relating to any Originator, the Master Servicer, or the Company furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of such entities.

(h) Neither the Company nor the Master Servicer shall assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder or under the Servicing Agreement other than to an Affiliate thereof without the prior written consent of the Funding Agents, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

95 grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive in respect of its Principal Balance any distribution of any amount, including interest or other fees, or any interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such distribution (if any) received by any other Lender in respect of such other Lender’s Principal Balance, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Master Servicer and the Company agree that each Lender so purchasing a Loan (or interest therein) may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of setoff) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being expressly waived by the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Company hereunder to setoff and appropriate and apply against any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Company. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Funding Agents after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

(c) If and to the extent, but without double counting, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (the “Recipients”) shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor or to any other Person any amount received from the Company under this Agreement, such amount shall be deemed not to have been received by the relevant Recipient but rather to have been retained by the Company and, accordingly, such Recipient shall have a claim against the Company for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

37.20 Limitation of Payments by the Company

The Company’s obligations under Sections 10, 12 and 14 shall be limited to the funds available to the Company which have been properly distributed to the Company pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and neither the Administrative Agent, nor any Funding Agent nor any Lender nor any other Secured Party shall have any actionable claim against the Company for failure to satisfy such obligation because it does not have funds available therefor from amounts properly distributed.

A director, member, independent manager, managing member, officer or employee, as applicable, of the Company shall not have liability for any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any Transaction Document or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, any Transaction Document, unless such claim results from the gross negligence, fraudulent acts or willful misconduct of such director, member, independent manager, managing member, officer or employee.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, each Lender (other than in the case of a Conduit Lender with respect to itself), the Company, the Master Servicer, the

97 Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent each hereby covenant and agree that prior to the date which is one year (or, if longer, such preference period as is then applicable) and one day after the latest of (i) the last day of the Amortization Period, (ii) the date on which all Secured Obligations are repaid in full, and (iii) the date on which all outstanding Commercial Paper of each Lender is paid in full, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other similar proceedings under any Applicable Insolvency Laws.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including Section 37.21 (c)), each of the parties hereto hereby agrees with Regency that it shall not (i) take, assist or join any corporate action or other steps or legal proceedings for the winding-up, dissolution, examinership or organisation or for the appointment of a receiver, administrator, administrative receiver, trustee, liquidator, examiner, sequestrator or similar officer of Regency or of any or all its revenues and assets; or (ii) have any right to take any steps for the purpose of obtaining payment of any amounts payable to it under this Agreement by Regency and shall not take any steps to recover any debts whatsoever owing to it by Regency

37.22 Limited Recourse

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, each of the parties hereto agrees that the respective obligations of each Conduit Lender under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document are solely the corporate obligations of such Conduit Lender and, in the case of obligations of each Conduit Lender other than Commercial Paper, shall be payable at such time as funds are received by or are available to such Conduit Lender in excess of funds necessary to pay in full all outstanding Commercial Paper issued by such Conduit Lender and, to the extent funds are not available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not constitute a claim against such Conduit Lender but shall continue to accrue. Each party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code) of any such party against such Conduit Lender shall be subordinated to the payment in full of all Commercial Paper of such Conduit Lender

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including Section 37.22 (a)), each party hereto agrees and acknowledges with Regency that (i) it will only have recourse in respect of any amount, claim or obligation due or owing to it by Regency (the “Claims”) to the extent of available funds pursuant to Clause 10.5 of the Management Agreement and subject to the proviso in such Clause, which shall be applied, subject to and in accordance with the terms thereof and after all other prior ranking claims in respect thereof have been satisfied and discharged in full; (ii) following the application of funds following enforcement of the security interests created under the Regency Security Documents, subject to and in accordance with

98 Clause 10.5 of the Management Agreement, Regency will have no assets available for payment of its obligations under the Regency Security Documents and this Agreement other than as provided for pursuant to the Management Agreement, and that any Claims will accordingly be extinguished to the extent of any shortfall; and (ii) the obligations of Regency under the Regency Security Documents, the Management Agreement and this Agreement will not be obligations or responsibilities of, or guaranteed by, any other person or entity.

(c) The provisions of this Section 37.22 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
