The amount of principal repayable on each Repayment Date is the amount set out opposite that Repayment Date in Schedule 1, which has been determined in accordance with the following formula: (i) after the initial eighteen (18) month interest-only period, then 50% of the principal that would have been due if the principal were amortizing on a straight-line basis, for the next six (6) quarters, (ii) then 100% of the principal that would have been due if the principal were amortizing on a straight-line basis, for the next thirty (30) quarters, and (iii) then 150% of the principal that would have been due if the principal were amortizing on a straight-line basis, for the next eighteen (18) quarters; provided that, on the Final Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay in full the balance of the principal then outstanding; provided further, if the aggregate amount of Disbursements made up to and including the Final Disbursement Date is less than the Commitment, then each amount of principal set forth on Schedule 1 shall be ratably reduced in proportion to such amount.

SECTION 9. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS

9.01 Representations and Warranties of the Borrower.

(a) General Representations and Warranties. As of the date hereof, the date of each Notice of Borrowing, and the date of each Utilization, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to EXIM Bank:

(i) Existence and Authority. The Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is qualified to do business in the State of Vermont, with full power, authority and legal right to own its property and carry on its business as now conducted, and has taken all actions necessary or advisable to authorize it to execute, deliver, perform, and observe the terms and conditions of the Finance Documents.

(ii) Government Authorizations Regarding Finance Documents. All consents, licenses, authorizations and approvals of, and exemptions by, any Governmental Authority that are necessary or advisable: (A) for the execution, delivery, performance and observance by the Borrower of the Finance Documents; (B) for the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Finance Documents; have, in each case, been obtained and are in full force and effect.

(iii) Recordation. To ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence in the Borrower’s Country of any of the Finance Documents, it is not necessary that any of the Finance Documents be registered, recorded, enrolled or otherwise filed with any court or any Governmental Authority, or notarized; or that any documentary, stamp or other similar tax, imposition or charge of any kind be paid on or in respect of any of the Finance Documents other than recordation of certain Security Documents with the City of South Burlington Land Records and the filing of UCC-1 financing statement with the Delaware Secretary of State.

(iv) Restrictions. The execution, delivery and performance or observance by the Borrower of the terms of, and consummation by the Borrower of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Finance Documents does not and will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of: (A) the charter, by-laws or similar documents of the Borrower; (B) any law of the Borrower’s Country or any other ordinance, decree, constitutional provision, regulation or other requirement of any Governmental Authority; or (C) any order, writ, injunction, judgment, decree or award of any court or other tribunal. Further, the Borrower’s execution and delivery of the Finance Documents, the performance and observance of its obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents do not conflict with or result in a breach of any agreement or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or to which it or any of its revenues, properties or assets may be subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the revenues, properties or assets of the Borrower pursuant to any such agreement or instrument other than the Lien upon the Collateral created under the Security Documents.

(v) Binding Effect. The Borrower has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and the other Finance Documents on or before the date hereof. Each of the Finance Documents that has been executed and delivered constitutes a direct, general, and unconditional obligation of the Borrower that is legal, valid, and binding upon the Borrower and enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium, readjustment of debt or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by the application of general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. The

28

Borrower’s payment obligations under this Agreement rank, and under the Note when issued will rank, in all respects, at least pari passu in priority of payment and in right of security with all other unsecured debt of the Borrower, except for obligations mandatorily preferred by operation of Applicable Law.

(vi) Compliance with Applicable Laws. The Borrower is in compliance in all material respects with all Applicable Laws. The Project subject to the Credit Facility is not a “public works project” within the meaning of the ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act or any other Applicable Law.

(vii) Commercial Activity. The Finance Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby constitute commercial activities (rather than governmental or public activities) of the Borrower, and the Borrower is subject to private commercial law with respect thereto. Neither the Borrower nor any of its property, assets, or revenue enjoys, under the laws of the Borrower’s Country, any right of immunity from suit, court jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, set-off, execution, or from any other legal process with respect to any of the obligations under this Agreement, the Note, or any of the other Finance Documents.

(viii) Legal Proceedings. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge and belief after due inquiry, threatened before any court, or any Governmental Authority that might: (A) materially and adversely affect the Borrower’s financial condition, business or operations; (B) restrain or enjoin or have the effect of restraining or enjoining the performance or observance of the terms and conditions of any of the Finance Documents; or (C) in any other manner question the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Finance Documents.

(ix) Borrower Financial Statements. The Borrower Financial Statements present fairly the financial condition of the Borrower at the date of such statements and the results of the operations of the Borrower for such fiscal year. The Borrower Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the Borrower’s Country consistently applied. Except as fully reflected in the Borrower Financial Statements, there are no liabilities or obligations with respect to the Borrower of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, and whether or not due) for the period to which the Borrower Financial Statements relate that, either individually or in the aggregate, would be material to the Borrower. Since the date of the Borrower Financial Statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, business, prospects or operations of the Borrower.

(x) Security Agreement. The Security Agreement will create and perfect in favor of EXIM Bank a legal, valid and enforceable first-priority security interest in the Collateral. Other than the Lien created by the Security Agreement, no Liens exist over or with respect to the Collateral other than Permitted Liens.

29

(xi) Compliance with Environmental Laws. The Borrower has not (i) failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) incurred, assumed, provided an indemnity with respect to, or otherwise become subject to any Environmental Liability (other than any indemnities set forth herein or in the Ground Lease, the Security Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or any other Finance Document), or (iii) received any notice, report, order, directive or other information regarding any actual or alleged violation of Environmental Laws or any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability, other than as disclosed in the initial and updated Phase I environmental reports for the Project dated April 15, 2021, March 15, 2022, June 30, 2022 and November 29, 2023 and in the Phase II environmental reports for the Project dated June 30, 2021 and March 16, 2022 (collectively, the “Environmental Reports”). The Borrower does not have knowledge of any basis for any Environmental Liability, other than as disclosed in the Environmental Reports. The Borrower has never treated, stored, released, discharged, disposed of, arranged for or permitted the disposal of, transported, handled, manufactured, distributed, or exposed any person to, or owned or operated any property or facility which is or has been contaminated by, any Hazardous Substances, so as to give rise to any current or future Environmental Liability.

(xii) Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims, disputes or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against the Borrower or against any of its properties or revenues that (i) either individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) purport to affect or pertain to this Agreement or any other Finance Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(xiii) Supply Contracts. No Applicable Law is or will be violated by any Supply Contract or the performance by the Borrower of its obligations thereunder.

(xiv) Use of Eligible Goods and Services. The Borrower has used the Eligible Goods and Services only for lawful purposes, in a lawful manner and in accordance with Applicable Law. The Eligible Goods and Services have been used primarily for civilian applications.

(xv) No Delinquency on Amounts Due to the United States. The Borrower is not delinquent on any amounts of money, funds or property due and owing to EXIM Bank or any other U.S. Federal Government Authority.

(xvi) No Corrupt Practices.

(A) Neither the Borrower nor any director, officer, employee, agent or representative acting on the Borrower’s behalf, is currently under charge or under formal investigation by any Governmental Authority, or has been, within the past five (5) years, convicted in any court of any country, or subject to equivalent measures such as deferred prosecution agreements, non-prosecution agreements or publicly-available arbitral awards, in any country, for bribery, payoffs, kickbacks or laundering money.

30

(B) Neither the Borrower nor any of its directors, officers or employees, agents or representatives has (directly or indirectly) paid, offered or promised to pay, or authorized the payment of any commission, bribe, pay-off or kickback or similar payment that violates any Applicable Law or entered into any agreement or arrangement under which any such payment will at any time be made. Neither the Borrower nor any of its directors, officers or employees, agents or representatives and, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge and belief, no Supplier or Ancillary Services Provider have, agreed to make or arrange for (directly or indirectly) any payment, discount, allowance, rebate, commission, fee or other payment in connection with the procurement of the Eligible Goods and Services under any Supply Contract without the express written consent of EXIM Bank, except for:

(1) payment of manufacturing costs or for the purchase of the Eligible Goods and Services;

31

(B) The Borrower has not made, and to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge and belief, none of the Suppliers or Ancillary Services Providers has made, any payment in connection with the Credit Facility or any Supply Contract to any Person who is Excluded or Disqualified from participating in a Covered Transaction.

(C) None of the Borrower nor any of its Principals individually are listed on any of the publicly available debarment lists of the World Bank Group, the African Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Inter-American Development Bank.

(B) No action, claim, lawsuit, enforcement action, proceeding, investigation, or written inquiry with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s compliance with Sanctions is pending or, to the best of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s knowledge and belief, after due inquiry, threatened.

(xix) Compliance Systems. The Borrower has implemented and enforces policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s, and Borrower’s directors’, officers’, and employees’, compliance with:

(A) Sanctions;

(C) all Applicable Laws relating to material or financial support for terrorism, illegal narcotics trafficking, human trafficking, or violations of human rights.

32

(xx) No Taxes. There is no Tax imposed on or in connection with: (A) the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Finance Documents; (B) the enforcement of any of the Finance Documents; (C) on any payment to be made to EXIM Bank under any of the Finance Documents; or (D) the grant by the Borrower of the Liens created under the Security Documents. The Borrower has filed all U.S. and non-US. federal, state and other tax returns and reports required to be filed, and has paid all U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state and other Taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable, except for any Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

(xxi) Intellectual Property. The Borrower owns, licenses or possesses the right to use all of the trademarks, tradenames, service marks, trade names, copyrights, patents, franchises, licenses and other intellectual property rights that are necessary for the operation of its business as currently conducted, and the use thereof by the Borrower does not conflict with the rights of any other Person. The conduct of the business of the Borrower as currently conducted or as contemplated to be conducted does not infringe upon or violate any intellectual property rights held by any other Person. No claim or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened that could reasonably be expected to be adversely determined, and, if so determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(xxii) ERISA Compliance.

(A) Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate (a) sponsors or maintains any Pension Plans or Multiemployer Plans or (b) makes any contributions to or has any liabilities or obligations (direct or contingent) with respect to any Pension Plans or Multiemployer Plans.

(B) Each Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state Laws, and each Plan that is intended to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that the form of such Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and the trust related thereto has been determined by the IRS to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status.

(C) There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened or contemplated claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that, either individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

33

(D) No ERISA Event has occurred, and neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event.

(E) The present value of all accrued benefits under each Pension Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Pension Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Pension Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan, the potential liability of the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is zero.

(F) To the extent applicable, each Foreign Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all Applicable Law and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities. The Borrower has not incurred any material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan that is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year of the Borrower on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan by a material amount, and for each Foreign Plan that is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued.

(G) Borrower does not, and would not be deemed to, hold Plan Assets, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Finance Documents will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or substantially similar provisions under any other federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations that could reasonably be expected to subject EXIM Bank to any tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed under Section 4975 of the Code, Section 501(i) of ERISA or substantially similar provisions under any other federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations.

(xxiii) Investment Company Act. The Borrower is not an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act.

No portion of the Project is now damaged or

34

injured as the result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or other casualty, nor is any part of the Project subject to any pending or, to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s knowledge, threatened eminent domain or condemnation proceeding. Except as disclosed by the Survey, the Project does not presently encroach upon any building line, set back line, side yard line, or any recorded or visible easement (or other easement of which Borrower is aware or has reason to believe may exist) which exists with respect to the Project.

(xxv) Utility Services. All utility and municipal services required for the occupancy and operation of the Project, including, but not limited to, water supply, storm and sanitary sewage disposal systems, cable services, electric and telephone facilities are presently available for use at the Project. The storm and sanitary sewage disposal system, water system, drainage system and all mechanical systems of the Project are all in good working order and comply with all Applicable Laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations.

(i) The Ground Lease by and between the City of Burlington, as ground lessor, and Borrower, as ground lessee, dated July 28, 2022 (the “Ground Lease”), is in full force and effect; (ii) there are no defaults on the part of the Borrower under the Ground Lease, and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute such a default; (iii) to the Borrower’s best knowledge, there is no present default by the ground lessor under the Ground Lease, and no events or circumstances exist which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default under the Ground Lease; and (iv) the Borrower is the sole owner of the entire lessee’s interest in the Ground Lease. Neither the Ground Lease nor the rents to be paid thereunder have been assigned or pledged except to EXIM Bank, and no other Person has any interest therein except the tenants thereunder.

(xxvii) Streets, Easements, Utilities and Other Services. (i) All streets, easements, utilities and related services required by the Governmental Authority for the construction of the Project and the operation thereof for their intended purpose (including potable water, storm and sanitary sewer, electric and telephone facilities and garbage removal) have been completed and paid for in full and are available at the Project, (ii) all governmental approvals, if any, which are necessary to tie into and use all such services have been obtained and all fees paid therefor, and (iii) all streets referred to in clause (i) have been (to the extent any applicable Governmental Authority requires them to be) dedicated to and accepted for maintenance and public use by all appropriate governmental agencies.

(xxviii) Zoning. The Project is duly and validly zoned for the development of the Project. Said zoning is unconditional and in full force and effect, and no attacks or challenges are pending or, to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s knowledge, threatened with respect thereto. Said zoning permits the construction and installation of the Project on the land in accordance with the building plans and specifications.

(xxix) ADA Compliance. To Borrower’s knowledge, the Project has been designed and shall be constructed, completed and (regardless of Borrower’s knowledge) thereafter maintained during the period of Borrower’s ownership thereof in strict accordance and full compliance with all of the requirements of the ADA and any similar state or local law, to the extent same are applicable. Borrower shall be responsible for all related compliance costs.

35

No portion of the land on which any portion of the Project is located (i) in an area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a “Special Flood Hazard Area,” (ii) in an area classified as “wetlands” or (iii) in an area designated by any federal, state or local governmental or quasi-governmental agency as a “floodway,” special flood hazard area or flood plain.

(xxxi) No Event of Default. No Event of Default, and no Potential Default, has occurred and is continuing.

(b) Special Representations and Warranties.

(i) Governmental Authorizations Regarding Supply Contracts. As at the date of Notice of Borrowing and the date of each Utilization, the Borrower represents and warrants to EXIM Bank that all consents, licenses, authorizations and approvals of, and exemptions by, any Governmental Authority that are necessary or advisable have been obtained and are in full force and effect for the (A) execution, delivery, performance and observance of any Supply Contract, (B) importation of the Contract Goods and Services, and (C) use, in the Borrower’s Country, of the Eligible Goods and Services under the Supply Contract, in each case, to which the relevant Utilization relates.

The Borrower shall promptly but in no event later than ten (10) days after the occurrence of an Event of Default or of any Potential Default, notify EXIM Bank of the particulars of such occurrence, the corrective action proposed to be taken by the Borrower with respect thereto and the proposed timeframe for taking such actions.

Beginning with the fiscal year in which this Agreement is executed and continuing until all amounts owing under this Agreement and each Note have been paid in full, the Borrower shall furnish to EXIM Bank (attn: Asset Management Division), within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of its fiscal year, a copy of its annual consolidated financial statements, including its balance sheet, statement of income, and statement of cash-flow for that fiscal year, all of which shall have been audited by Deloitte or another independent accounting firm acceptable to EXIM Bank.

Funds shall be disbursed under the Credit Facility to finance Eligible Goods and Services in accordance with the “Reimbursement Procedure.” No other disbursement methods are permitted to finance Eligible Goods and Services. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement. References to “Exhibit” herein are references to the exhibit attached to this Annex B-1.

Copies of all documents are acceptable. Certain commercial documents, such as invoices, advices of payment and bills of lading, may be delivered in their original language; provided that a translation to English may be required if EXIM Bank requests such translation.

The Borrower may from time to time request that EXIM Bank make Disbursements to the Borrower’s account at or through a commercial bank in the United States selected by the Borrower and acceptable to EXIM Bank to: (i) reimburse the Borrower for the EXIM Bank-approved portion of any payments made by the Borrower to a Supplier or Ancillary Services Provider and (ii) charge the Borrower for the related Exposure Fee due to EXIM Bank (if financed).

Exhibit 1 to Annex B-1: Form of Request for Reimbursement to Borrower’s Account

The following is included for informational purposes only, and is not part of the Agreement:

1 The Borrower is encouraged to Upload Reimbursement Documents via the Disbursement Portal at EXIM Online at ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇. The Borrower should deliver all Notices of Borrowing electronically to EXIM Bank. Please refer to ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for more information regarding the Disbursement Portal and the disbursement process in general.

2 Because the Supplier(s) and Ancillary Services Provider (if any) are not parties to the Agreement, the Borrower will need to take the following steps to ensure that the Credit Facility is utilized and disbursed in a timely fashion:

a The Borrower should advise the Supplier(s) (and any Ancillary Services Provider) of the provisions of this Agreement that will require its cooperation, including, without limitation, the requirement that each entity’s Anti-Lobbying Certificate and the Supplier’s Certificate be completed and submitted prior to the first Utilization.

3 Ocean Transportation – MARAD Certifications and Determinations

Please refer to Section 4.01 of the Agreement setting forth the requirements relating to use of vessels of U.S. registry for transportation of Goods Subject to U.S. Flag Shipping. The U.S. Maritime Administration (“MARAD”) provides facilitation services to assist Supplier(s) and the Borrower with obtaining suitable shipping arrangements on U.S.-flag vessels. MARAD may (as part of the facilitation process) work with shippers and U.S.-flag carriers to identify any flexibility in schedules, rates, routes and capacity that would facilitate U.S.-flag vessel availability. In particular, EXIM Bank and MARAD encourage the use of advance shipping plans, booking subject to completion and service contracts; please refer to a description of these options at ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇- financed-ex-im-bank.

With respect to Goods Subject to U.S. Flag Shipping, EXIM Bank strongly encourages Supplier(s) and the Borrower who anticipate receiving a financing commitment from EXIM Bank to contact U.S. flag carriers as early as possible to obtain bids for transporting their ocean-bound cargos in order to obtain the most favorable rates and shipping schedule, and to request MARAD facilitation and assistance in identifying available U.S.-flag carriage. EXIM Bank may approve financing of goods shipped on foreign-flag vessels pursuant to a MARAD “Certification of Vessel Non-Availability” or MARAD “Determination for Use in EXIM Bank Financing Evaluation Process”. Shippers should submit requests for such a certification or determination to MARAD pursuant to the criteria and procedures set forth at ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇-▇▇-▇▇▇▇. Each application for a MARAD certification or determination must be submitted to MARAD sufficiently in advance of the intended shipping date in order to allow MARAD adequate opportunity to process the application. If any of the Goods Subject to U.S. Flag Shipping are shipped on ocean vessels of non-U.S. registry without a MARAD certification or determination, or contrary to the provisions of a MARAD certification or determination, such Goods will not be eligible for financing under the Credit Facility.

Annex B-1

- Page -

Special Disbursement Rules Applicable to Reachback Determinations. In the event that MARAD issues a “Determination for Use in EXIM Bank Financing Evaluation Process” under ▇▇▇▇▇’s reachback criteria (“Reachback Determination”), EXIM Bank may approve a Reimbursement Disbursement for no more than eighty percent (80%) of the amount ordinarily allowed as a Reimbursement (e.g., 80% of the Reimbursement amount applicable to the same cargo shipped on a U.S. flag vessel). Note that generally Reachback Determinations are not issued for more than ten percent (10%) of the U.S. ocean-going cargo proposed to be financed by EXIM Bank.
