APPOINTMENT; SECURITY INTEREST

Section 2.01 Appointment. (a) The Collateral Agent, on behalf and at the direction of the Senior Secured Parties, hereby appoints and authorizes the Accounts Bank to act as its depository for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, and as the securities intermediary or bank with respect to the Project Accounts for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, with such powers as are expressly delegated to the Accounts Bank by the terms of this Accounts Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Accounts Bank hereby accepts each such appointment and agrees to act as the depository for the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, and as the securities intermediary or bank with respect to the Project Accounts, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, in accordance with the terms of this Accounts Agreement. The Accounts Bank further agrees to accept and hold, as securities intermediary or as a bank, in its custody and in accordance with the terms of this Accounts Agreement, for the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, the Project Accounts and the Account Collateral.

(b) The Collateral Agent also hereby appoints and authorizes the Accounts Bank to act on its behalf for the purpose of the creation and perfection of a security interest having the priority set forth in the Credit Agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, in the Project Accounts to the extent that they are deemed under applicable Law not to constitute securities accounts or deposit accounts and in any Account Collateral that is deemed under applicable Law not to constitute a “financial asset” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(9) of the UCC). The Accounts Bank hereby accepts this appointment and agrees to act as the Accounts Bank for the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, for such purpose and to hold and maintain exclusive dominion and control over the Project Accounts and any such Account Collateral on behalf of the Collateral Agent, acting for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in any Financing Document, the Accounts Bank shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Accounts Bank have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Senior Secured Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Financing Document or otherwise exist against the Accounts Bank. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in any Financing Document with reference to the Accounts Bank is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided for in the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement, until otherwise instructed by the Collateral Agent, the Accounts Bank shall not act upon any direction submitted to the Accounts Bank by the Pre-Petition Collateral Agent. By its signature below, the Pre-Petition Collateral Agent consents to: (i) the execution and delivery by the parties hereto of this Agreement, (ii) the applicability of this Agreement to the Project Accounts and (iii) the provisions of this Section 2.01(d).

Section 2.02 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Accounts Bank. The Accounts Bank hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, and the Borrower as follows:

(a) it is a securities intermediary on the date hereof and shall act as such in maintaining the Project Accounts and all of the Account Collateral (including all securities and other financial assets or security entitlements deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts) from time to time transferred, deposited in or credited to or maintained in the Project Accounts;

(b) it is the bank with which each Project Account is maintained and the securities intermediary with respect to the financial assets held in the Project Accounts. In this regard, (i) if the Accounts Bank has knowledge that an issuer of any financial asset is required to make a payment or distribution in respect of such financial asset, the Accounts Bank shall have fulfilled its duty under applicable Law to take action to obtain such payment or distribution if (A) it credits such payment or distribution to the Project Accounts in accordance with the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement if such payment or distribution is made or (B) it notifies the Borrower and the Collateral Agent that such payment or distribution has not been made, and (ii) if the Accounts Bank is required by applicable Law or the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement to credit to any Project Account any financial asset purported to be transferred or credited to the Accounts Bank pursuant to applicable Law, the Accounts Bank shall have fulfilled its duty to so credit any Project Account if it credits as a security entitlement to the applicable party whatever rights the Accounts Bank purportedly has in the financial asset transferred or credited to the Accounts Bank and the Accounts Bank shall have no duty to ensure that applicable Law has been complied with in respect of the transfer of the financial asset or to create a security interest in or Lien on any financial asset purported to be transferred or credited to the Accounts Bank and subsequently credited to any Project Account;

(c) it shall promptly perform all duties imposed upon a securities intermediary and a bank under the UCC, other applicable Law and this Accounts Agreement;

(d) the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, and no other Person, is the Accounts Bank’s customer with respect to the Project Accounts, and the Borrower has consented to the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, being deemed the customer hereunder;

(e) the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction, for purposes of this Accounts Agreement and Article 8 of the UCC, is and shall continue to be the State of New York, and the bank’s jurisdiction of the Accounts Bank, for purposes of this Accounts Agreement and Section 9-304(b)(1) of the UCC, is and shall continue to be the State of New York;

(f) it has established and maintains the Project Accounts as set forth in the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement;

(g) each Project Account is and will be maintained as a securities account or, as set forth in Section 2.03 (Project Accounts as Deposit Account), a deposit account;

(h) all financial assets acquired by or delivered to the Accounts Bank shall be held by the Accounts Bank and credited by book entry to the relevant Project Account or otherwise accepted by the Accounts Bank for credit to the relevant Project Account. Any financial asset so credited or accepted for credit to the relevant Project Account shall be registered in the name of, payable to, or to the order of, or indorsed to the Accounts Bank or in blank and in no case will any financial asset credited to any Project Account or held by the Accounts Bank for credit to any Project Account be registered in the name of, payable to, to the order of, or indorsed to, the Borrower, except to the extent that such financial asset has been subsequently indorsed by the Borrower to the Accounts Bank or in blank;

(i) each item of property (including any cash, security, general intangible, document, instrument or obligation, share, participation, interest or other property whatsoever) deposited in or credited to any Project Account shall be treated as a financial asset under and for the purposes of Article 8 of the UCC, including Section 8-102(a)(9)(iii) thereof. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any property contained in the Project Accounts that is not deemed to be a financial asset under applicable Law, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, will be deemed to be deposited in a deposit account and subject to Section 2.03 (Project Accounts as Deposit Account);

(j) the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, is the entitlement holder in any security entitlements with respect to any financial assets deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts, and the Collateral Agent may issue entitlement orders with respect thereto;

(k) if at any time it receives an entitlement order or any other order from the Collateral Agent directing the transfer, redemption or liquidation of any financial asset carried in the Project Accounts or any instruction originated by the Collateral Agent directing the disbursement, deposit and/or transfer of any funds or other property held in the Project Accounts, the Accounts Bank shall comply with such entitlement order, instruction or other order without further consent by the Borrower or any other Person. The Borrower hereby agrees that the Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, shall have control of the security entitlements carried in the Project Accounts and of the financial assets carried in the Project Accounts, and the Borrower hereby disclaims any entitlement to claim control of such security entitlements or financial assets;

(l) the Accounts Bank shall not change the name or account number of any Project Account unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, provides prior written notice to the Borrower;

(m) except for the claims and interest of (i) the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, (ii) the Pre-Petition Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Pre-Petition Senior Secured Parties and (iii) the Borrower, in the Project Accounts, it does not know of and has not received written notice of any right or claim (including any adverse claim) to or interest in the Project Accounts or any Account Collateral (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts by any Person. If any Person (other than the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties or the Pre-Petition Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Pre-Petition Senior Secured Parties) asserts any Lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against any Project Account or in any financial asset or other property deposited therein or credited thereto, the Accounts Bank will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Borrower in writing thereof; and

(n) the Accounts Bank has not entered into and will not enter into any agreement with respect to the Project Accounts or any financial assets or other property deposited in or credited to any Project Account other than this Accounts Agreement and the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement, each as may be amended from time to time. The Accounts Bank has not entered into and will not enter into any agreement with the Borrower or any other Person purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Accounts Bank to comply with entitlement orders or any other order originated by the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Accounts Agreement other than the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement, as may be amended from time to time.

Section 2.03 Project Accounts as Deposit Account. (a) The parties hereto agree that, to the extent that the Project Accounts are not considered “securities accounts” (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the UCC), the Project Accounts shall be deemed to be deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC) to the extent a security interest can be granted and perfected under the UCC in the Project Accounts as deposit accounts, which the Borrower shall maintain with the Accounts Bank acting not as Securities Intermediary but as a “bank” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(8) of the UCC).

(b) The Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, shall be deemed the sole customer of the Accounts Bank for purposes of the Project Accounts and, as such, shall be entitled to all of the rights that customers of banks have under applicable Law with respect to deposit accounts, including the right to withdraw funds from, or close, the Project Accounts, and the Borrower hereby consents to the Collateral Agent being deemed the customer hereunder.

Section 2.04 Security Interest. (a) As security for the prompt and complete payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of any and all of the Obligations and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower with all of the terms, conditions, and agreements to be performed and complied with by it under and pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents, the Borrower has granted a security interest to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, pursuant to the Credit Agreement in, all of its right, title and interest in and to the following, in each case, as to each type of property described below, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower, wherever located, and whether now or hereafter existing or arising (collectively, the “Account Collateral”):

(i) each of the Project Accounts, including all funds, Cash Equivalents, securities, financial assets or other property held in, required to be held in or credited to any of the Project Accounts or otherwise in possession or control of the Accounts Bank pursuant to this Accounts Agreement, and all interest, dividends and other income derived therefrom;

(ii) all statements, certificates, instruments and investment property representing or evidencing any property described in clause (i) above held in, required to be held in or credited to any of the Project Accounts or otherwise in possession or control of the Accounts Bank pursuant to this Accounts Agreement; and

(iii) to the extent not included in the foregoing, all proceeds, products and accessions of and to any and all of the foregoing, including whatever is received upon any collection, exchange, sale or other disposition of any of the foregoing and any property into which any of the foregoing is converted, whether cash or non-cash proceeds, and any and all other amounts paid or payable under or in connection with any of the foregoing and all security entitlements of the Borrower in any and all of the foregoing.

Section 2.05 Control and Perfection of Account Collateral. (a) The Borrower specifically acknowledges and agrees that (i) (A) each Project Account shall be maintained so that the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, has control of such Project Account in the manner specified in Section 9-104 of the UCC, (B) all Cash Equivalents shall be maintained so that the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, has control of such Cash Equivalents in the manner specified in Section 9-106 of the UCC, and (C) all financial assets held in the Project Accounts shall be maintained so that the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, has control of such financial assets in the manner specified in Section 8-106 of the UCC.

(b) The Borrower shall give, execute, deliver, file, record, authenticate, authorize or obtain all such UCC financing statements as may be necessary to perfect and maintain the security interest granted under the Credit Agreement.

(c) Until the Security Discharge Date, the Borrower shall not have any rights against or to monies held in the Project Accounts except the right to receive or make requisitions of funds deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts as permitted by this Accounts Agreement and the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement.

Section 2.06 Subordination. (a) The Accounts Bank hereby acknowledges the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties. In the event that the Accounts Bank has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of Law or otherwise a right of recoupment or set-off or any Lien in any of the Project Accounts, Account Collateral or any financial asset or other property deposited therein or credited thereto or any security entitlement related thereto, the Accounts Bank hereby agrees that such right of recoupment or set-off and/or any such Lien shall (except to the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section 2.06) be subordinate to the security interest of the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties. The Accounts Bank agrees that it shall not (except to the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section 2.06) assert or enforce any such right of recoupment or set-off and/or any Lien until the Notice of Security Discharge Date.

(b) Until the Notice of Security Discharge Date, the financial assets and other items deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts and all other Account Collateral will not (except to the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section 2.06) be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Collateral Agent, on behalf and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties and the Pre-Petition Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Pre-Petition Senior Secured Parties.

(c) The Project Accounts, Account Collateral or any financial asset or other property deposited therein or credited thereto shall be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien and recoupment to the extent of returned items and chargebacks either for uncollected checks or other items of payment and transfers previously credited to one or more Project Accounts, and each of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Accounts Bank to debit the relevant Project Account(s) for such amounts.

Section 2.07 No Knowledge of Certain Events. (a) The Accounts Bank shall not be charged with knowledge of any Notice of Suspension, Default or Event of Default unless the Accounts Bank has received such Notice of Suspension or other written notice of such Default or Event of Default from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.

(b) The Accounts Bank shall not be charged with the knowledge that any transfer or withdrawal from any Project Account would result in the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, unless it has received written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.

ARTICLE III

INVESTMENTS

Section 3.01 Investments. Prior to the receipt by the Accounts Bank of a Notice of Suspension, any amounts held by the Accounts Bank in the Project Accounts shall be invested by the Accounts Bank from time to time, at the risk and expense of the Borrower, solely in such Cash Equivalents as an Authorized Officer of the Borrower shall direct in writing (which may be in the form of a standing instruction). The Borrower shall select Cash Equivalents having such maturities as shall cause the Project Accounts to have a cash balance as of any day sufficient to cover the transfers to be made from the Project Accounts on such day in accordance with this Accounts Agreement and the Pre-Petition Accounts Agreement. Upon delivery by the Collateral Agent to the Accounts Bank of a Notice of Suspension and until written revocation of such Notice of Suspension is delivered to the Accounts Bank by the Collateral Agent, any amounts held by the Accounts Bank in the Project Accounts shall be invested by the Accounts Bank from time to time, solely in such Cash Equivalents as the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may direct; provided that the Accounts Bank’s obligation to invest such amounts is conditioned upon receipt by the Accounts Bank of a valid United States Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service tax Form W-9. Neither the Collateral Agent, the Accounts Bank nor the Administrative Agent shall be liable for any loss resulting from any Cash Equivalents (or any investment or reinvestment therein or liquidation or redemption thereof) from any Project Account or the sale or redemption thereof except to the extent that such loss results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent, the Accounts Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, it being understood and agreed that in no event shall any of the Administrative Agent, the Accounts Bank or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, be liable for any loss resulting from any investment made, or any sale or redemption of any investment made, in accordance with instructions received from the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, or failure to receive written direction as required hereunder, or in accordance with Section 3.02 (Sale and Liquidation) hereof.

Section 3.02 Sale and Liquidation. In the event that the cash balance in any of the Project Accounts is as of any day insufficient to cover the transfers to be made from such Project Account on such day (and if advised in writing by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower of such circumstances), the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) direct the Accounts Bank, without instructions from the Borrower, to sell or liquidate the Cash Equivalents standing to the credit of such Project Account (without regard to maturity date) in such manner as the Collateral Agent may direct in order to obtain cash at least sufficient to make such transfers and to pay any expenses and charges incurred in connection with effecting any such sale or liquidation, which expenses and charges the Accounts Bank shall be authorized to pay with cash on deposit in such Project Account. Neither the Accounts Bank, the Collateral Agent nor any other Senior Secured Party shall be liable to any Person for any loss suffered because of any such sale or liquidation.

ARTICLE IV

DEFAULT AND ENFORCEMENT

Section 4.01 Notices of Suspension of Project Accounts. (a) The Collateral Agent may, but shall not be required to, suspend the right of the Accounts Bank and the Borrower to withdraw or otherwise deal with any funds deposited in or credited to the Project Accounts at any time during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default by delivering a notice to the Accounts Bank (with a copy to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) (a “Notice of Suspension”).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document, after the issuance by the Collateral Agent of a Notice of Suspension in accordance with Section 4.01(a) and until such time as the Collateral Agent advises the Accounts Bank and the Borrower in writing that it has withdrawn such Notice of Suspension (which it shall do promptly if such Event of Default is no longer continuing or has been waived), no amount may be withdrawn by the Accounts Bank from any Project Account, including for investment in Cash Equivalents, without the express prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the withdrawal of a Notice of Suspension by the Collateral Agent shall not affect any other Notice of Suspension that it may have issued.

Section 4.02 Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact (which appointment as attorney-in-fact shall be coupled with an interest), with full authority, if a Notice of Suspension has been delivered to the Accounts Bank and until such Notice of Suspension has been withdrawn, to take any action and to execute any and all documents and instruments in the place and stead of the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Accounts Agreement in a commercially reasonable manner to the extent required by the UCC, without notice to the Borrower, including:

(a) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to exercise the rights and remedies set forth in this Accounts Agreement and the other Financing Documents;

(b) to take any action that the Collateral Agent may, in its discretion and at the Borrower’s expense, deem necessary or appropriate (i) to perfect, maintain and enforce any security interest or other Lien created in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, (ii) to create, perfect, maintain and enforce any security interest or other Lien granted or purported to be granted hereby or (iii) to otherwise accomplish the purposes of this Accounts Agreement;

ARTICLE V

THE ACCOUNTS BANK

Section 5.01 Duties of the Accounts Bank and Securities Intermediary. (a) The Accounts Bank, acting as Securities Intermediary, will have the obligations of a securities intermediary under Article 8 of the UCC, and acting as a bank with respect to the Project Accounts, will have the obligations of a bank under Article 9 of the UCC. The Accounts Bank will also have those duties and responsibilities expressly set forth in this Accounts Agreement, and no additional duties, responsibilities, obligations or liabilities shall be inferred from the provisions of this Accounts Agreement or imposed on the Accounts Bank. The Accounts Bank will act at the written direction of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and, as expressly provided in this Accounts Agreement, the Borrower, but will not be required to take any action that is contrary to this Accounts Agreement or applicable Law or that, in its reasonable judgment, would involve it in expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with adequate indemnity and/or security against such expense or liability. The Accounts Bank will have no responsibility to ensure the performance by any other party of its duties and obligations hereunder. The Accounts Bank will use the same care with respect to the safekeeping and handling of property held in the Project Accounts as the Accounts Bank uses in respect of property held for its own sole benefit. The provisions of this Article V are solely for the benefit of the Accounts Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Senior Secured Parties.

(b) In performing its functions and duties under this Accounts Agreement, the Accounts Bank will act solely as the depository of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties, and as Securities Intermediary or as a bank, as the case may be, with respect to the Project Accounts for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties. The Accounts Bank does not assume and will not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any Person other than the Collateral Agent. None of the Senior Secured Parties or the Borrower will have any rights against the Accounts Bank hereunder, other than for the Accounts Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Accounts Agreement, the Borrower will not have any right to direct the Accounts Bank to distribute or allocate any funds, instruments, securities, financial assets or other assets in the Project Accounts or to withdraw or transfer any funds, instruments, securities, financial assets or other assets from the Project Accounts. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Accounts Agreement, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Senior Secured Parties, will have the sole right to issue directions and instructions to the Accounts Bank, acting as Securities Intermediary or bank, as the case may be, in accordance with this Accounts Agreement, and to issue entitlement orders with respect to the Project Accounts. It is expressly understood and agreed that any investment made with funds held in the Project Accounts may be made only in accordance with the express provisions of Section 3.01 (Investments) and, when an investment is so made, it is expressly understood and agreed that such investment was made with the permission of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its exclusive possession of, and dominion and control over, the Project Accounts, which it maintains through the Accounts Bank. The Accounts Bank shall not in any way whatsoever be liable for any loss or depreciation in the value of any investments made pursuant to the terms of this Accounts Agreement.

Section 5.02 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) Neither the Accounts Bank nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents will have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or required by applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Accounts Bank shall not:

(i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Accounts Bank is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders; provided that the Accounts Bank shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Accounts Bank to liability or that is contrary to any Financing Document or applicable Law; and provided further that no such direction given to the Accounts Bank that in the sole judgment of the Accounts Bank imposes, or purports to impose, or might reasonably be expected to impose upon the Accounts Bank any obligation or liability not set forth herein or arising hereunder shall be binding upon the Accounts Bank unless the Accounts Bank, in its sole discretion, accepts such direction;

(iii) except as expressly set forth herein, have any duty to disclose, nor shall the Accounts Bank be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Accounts Bank or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; or

(iv) be required to institute any legal proceedings arising out of or in connection with, or otherwise take steps to enforce, this Accounts Agreement other than on the instructions of the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent;

(b) Neither the Accounts Bank nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the prior written consent or at the request of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, (ii) as may be reasonably necessary, or as the Accounts Bank may believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 2.01 (Appointment) or (iii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) Neither the Accounts Bank nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Accounts Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Financing Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report, opinion or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein (including the use of proceeds) or the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness or admissibility in evidence of this Accounts Agreement, the Credit 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 purported to be created by any Security Document (or title to or rights in any collateral under any Security Document), or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI (Conditions Precedent) of the Credit Agreement or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Accounts Bank.

(d) The Accounts Bank may, unless and until it shall have received directions from the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, take such action or refrain from taking such action in respect of a Default or Event of Default of which the Accounts Bank has been advised in writing by the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent as it shall reasonably deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (but shall not be obligated to do so).

Section 5.03 Reliance by Accounts Bank. The Accounts Bank shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not (nor shall any of its directors, officers, employees or agents) 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) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Accounts Bank also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Accounts Bank may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts reasonably selected by it, 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. The Accounts Bank may at any time and from time to time solicit written instructions in the form of directions from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders or an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, as to any action that it may be requested or required to take, or that it may propose to take, in the performance of any of its obligations under this Accounts Agreement.

Section 5.04 Written Instructions; Notices. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Accounts Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document to the contrary, the Accounts Bank shall have no obligation to (i) make any payment, transfer or withdrawal from any Project Account until it has received written direction to make such payment, transfer or withdrawal from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Borrower as set forth herein or (ii) determine whether any payment, transfer or withdrawal from any Project Account made in accordance with any written direction from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Borrower complies with the terms of this Accounts Agreement. The Accounts Bank shall have no liability for, nor any responsibility or obligation to confirm, the use or application by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent or any other recipient of amounts withdrawn or transferred from any Project Account.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Accounts Agreement, the Accounts Bank shall take action under this Accounts Agreement only as it shall be directed in writing by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent. In each case that the Accounts Bank may or is required under the other Financing Documents to take any action (an “Accounts Bank Action”), including without limitation to make any determination or judgment, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies or otherwise to act hereunder, under any other Financing Document, the Accounts Bank may seek direction from the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled to refrain from such Accounts Bank Action unless and until it has received such direction and shall not incur any liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.

Section 5.05 Resignation or Removal of Accounts Bank. (a) The Accounts Bank may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent. The Accounts Bank may be removed (i) at any time by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, or (ii) in the event of a material breach by the Accounts Bank of its duties hereunder, by the Borrower in consultation with the Administrative Agent. Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Accounts Bank, in accordance with this Section 5.05.

(b) Upon the notice of resignation by the Accounts Bank or upon the removal of the Accounts Bank pursuant to Section 5.05(a), the Administrative Agent shall appoint a successor Accounts Bank hereunder, who shall be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least two hundred fifty million Dollars ($250,000,000).

(c) If no successor Accounts Bank has been appointed by the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Accounts Bank or the date on which the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or the Borrower elected to remove the Accounts Bank, pursuant to Section 5.05(a), any Senior Secured Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Accounts Bank. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a successor Accounts Bank who shall serve as Accounts Bank hereunder until such time, if any, as the Administrative Agent appoints a successor Accounts Bank, as provided above.

(d) Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Accounts Bank hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Accounts Bank, and the retiring (or removed) Accounts Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder. After the retirement or removal of the Accounts Bank hereunder, the provisions of this Article V shall continue in effect for the benefit of the retiring (or removed) Accounts Bank in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while the retiring or removed Accounts Bank was acting as Accounts Bank.

(e) The retiring or removed Accounts Bank will promptly transfer all of the Project Accounts and the Account Collateral to the possession or control of the successor Accounts Bank and will, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver such notices, instructions and assignments as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to transfer the rights of the Accounts Bank, together with all records and reports, with respect to the Project Accounts and the Account Collateral to the successor Accounts Bank.
