Any Request for Borrowing received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 p.m. shall (unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent) be deemed to have been given by the applicable Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day. Each Request for Borrowing submitted by the Borrowers shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 and, to the extent applicable, Section 6.3 and/or Section 6.4 have been satisfied (except to the extent waived) on and as of the date of the applicable Borrowing. No Request for Borrowing shall be valid hereunder for any purpose unless it shall have been accompanied or preceded by the information and other documents required to be delivered in accordance with this Section 2.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any notice requirement in this clause (a) may be waived by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in their sole discretion in connection with the initial Request for Borrowing.

(b)	Further Information. Each Request for Borrowing shall be accompanied or preceded by: (i) a duly executed Borrowing Base Certificate dated the date of such Request for Borrowing; and (ii) such documents as are required to satisfy any applicable conditions precedent as provided in Section 6.2.

(e)

Rollovers. No later than 12:00 p.m. (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion) (x) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the termination of each Interest Period related to a LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars or (y) at least four (4) Business Days prior to the termination of each Interest Period related to a LIBOR Rate Loan in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice at the Agency Services Address (which notice may be via fax or electronic mail) in the form of Exhibit G (a “Rollover Notice”) whether it desires to renew such LIBOR Rate Loan. The Rollover Notice shall also specify (i) the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loan and (ii) the length of the Interest Period, in each case selected by the applicable Borrower with respect to such Rollover. Each Rollover Notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon notification thereof to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrowers fail to timely give the Administrative Agent the Rollover Notice with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected one (1)-month LIBOR as the Interest Option with respect to such Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR shall automatically rollover until it is prepaid or converted each day without any notice or election.

(f)

Conversions. The Borrowers shall have the right: (i) on any Business Day (a “LIBOR Conversion Date”), with respect to any Reference Rate Loan, to convert such Reference Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars, or with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR, to convert such LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR to a LIBOR Rate Loan that is not based on Daily LIBOR; and (ii) with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan in Dollars, on any Business Day (a “Reference Rate/Daily LIBOR Conversion Date”) to convert such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Reference Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR, provided that the Borrowers shall, on such LIBOR Conversion

Date or Reference Rate/Daily LIBOR Conversion Date, as applicable, make the payments required by Section 4.6, if any, in either case, by giving the Administrative Agent written notice at the Agency Services Address in the form of Exhibit G (a “Conversion Notice”) of such selection no later than 12:00 p.m. at least either (x) three (3) Business Days prior to such LIBOR Conversion Date or (y) one (1) Business Day prior to such Reference Rate/Daily LIBOR Conversion Date, as applicable.

A request of the Borrowers for a Conversion of a Reference Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan is subject to the condition that no Event of Default or Potential Default exists at the time of such request or after giving effect to such Conversion. A request of the Borrowers for a Conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR to a LIBOR Rate Loan that is not based on Daily LIBOR is subject to the condition that no Event of Default or Potential Default exists at the time of such request or after giving effect to such Conversion

(g)	Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no more than ten (10) LIBOR Rate Loans may be outstanding hereunder at any one time during the Availability Period.

(h)

Administrative Agent Notification of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt of a Request for Borrowing, a Conversion Notice or a Rollover Notice, the amount of the Borrowing and the amount and currency of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Loans, the date the Borrowing is to be made, the Interest Option selected, the Interest Period selected, if applicable, and the applicable rate of interest.

Any Loans in an Alternative Currency shall satisfy these minimum thresholds on a Dollar Equivalent basis.

2.5

Funding.

(a)

Funding of Borrowings. Subject to the fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of each Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. on the date specified in the Request for Borrowing as the borrowing date, in Same Day Funds, and, upon fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall deposit such proceeds in Same Day Funds in the applicable Borrower’s account maintained with the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the borrowing date or, if requested by the Borrowers in the Request for Borrowing, shall wire-transfer such funds as requested on or before such time. If a Lender fails to make its Pro Rata Share of any requested Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the applicable borrowing date, then the Administrative Agent may recover the applicable amount on demand: (i) from such Lender, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for the

period commencing on the date the amount was made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent and ending on (but excluding) the date the Administrative Agent recovers the amount from such Lender; or (ii) if such Lender fails to pay its amount upon the Administrative Agent’s demand, then from the Borrowers by the Required Payment Time, together with interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to the requested Borrowing for the period commencing on the borrowing date and ending on (but excluding) the date the Administrative Agent recovers the amount from the Borrowers.

(b)

Obligations of Lender Several. The liabilities and obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the performance by any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. The failure of any Lender to advance the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing required to be advanced hereunder. Each Lender hereunder shall be liable to the Borrowers only for the amount of its respective Commitment.

2.6

Interest.

(a)

Interest Rate. Each Loan funded by the Lenders shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to: (i) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period; and (ii) with respect to Reference Rate Loans, the Reference Rate in effect from day to day. At any time, each Loan shall have only one Interest Period and one Interest Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the interest rate hereunder exceed the Maximum Rate.

(b)

Change in Rate; Past Due Amounts; Calculations of Interest. Each change in the rate of interest for any Borrowing consisting of Reference Rate Loans shall become effective, without prior notice to the Credit Parties, automatically as of the opening of business of the Administrative Agent on the date of said change. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of (i) each LIBOR Rate Loan (other than LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Sterling) and Reference Rate Loan bearing interest based on LIBOR shall be calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days and

(ii) each Reference Rate Loan (other than when the Reference Rate is calculated based on LIBOR) and LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Sterling shall be calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be.

(c)

Default Rate. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then, upon written notice to the Borrowers from the Administrative Agent, (in lieu of the interest rate provided in Section 2.6(a) above) all Facility Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate.

2.7

Determination of Rate. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the LIBOR Rate Loans and Reference Rate Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall, upon request, give notice to the Borrowers and to the Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error.

2.8

Qualified Borrowers. In consideration of the Lenders’ agreement to advance funds to a Qualified Borrower that has joined the Credit Facility in accordance with Section 6.3, to cause Letters of Credit to be issued for the account of a Qualified Borrower pursuant to Section 2.13, and to accept the Qualified Borrower Guaranties in support thereof, the Borrowers hereby authorize, empower, and direct the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, within the limits of the Available Commitment, to disburse directly to the Lenders, with notice to the Borrowers, in Same Day Funds, an amount equal to the amount due and owing under any Qualified Borrower Promissory Note or any Qualified Borrower Guaranty, together with all interest, costs and expenses and fees due to the Lenders pursuant thereto, as a Borrowing hereunder, in the event the Administrative Agent shall have not received payment of such Facility Obligations when due. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrowers of any disbursement made to the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of the disbursement, and the Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with notice thereof. Any such disbursement made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders shall be deemed to be a Reference Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3 in the amount so paid, and the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.3, a Request for Borrowing with respect thereto; and such disbursements shall be made without regard to the minimum and multiple amounts specified in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on the Lenders as to the amount of any such Facility Obligations due to the Lenders, absent manifest error.

2.9

Use of Proceeds, Letters of Credit and Qualified Borrower Guaranties. The proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be used solely for purposes (a) expressly permitted under the Constituent Documents of each Credit Party and (b) for which a Capital Call may be made to fund the repayment thereof. Neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall have any liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever with respect to the Borrowers’ use of the proceeds of the Loans, the Letters of Credit or execution and delivery of the Qualified Borrower Guaranties, and neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to determine whether or not the Borrowers’ use of the proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit are for purposes permitted under the Constituent Documents of any Credit Party. Nothing, including, without limitation, any Borrowing, any Rollover, any issuance of any Letter of Credit, or acceptance of any Qualified Borrower Guaranty or other document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent as to whether any investment by the Borrowers is permitted by the terms of the Constituent Documents of any Credit Party. Each Borrower agrees to respond promptly to any reasonable requests for information related to its use of Loan and Letter of Credit proceeds to the extent required by any Lender in connection with such Lender’s determination of its compliance with Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. § 371c) and the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation W (12 C.F.R. Part 223). No Borrower shall to its actual knowledge use the proceeds of any Borrowing hereunder to purchase any asset or securities from any Lender’s “affiliate” as such term is defined in 12 C.F.R. Part 223, without the prior written consent of the applicable Lender, in its sole discretion. In connection with each Request for Borrowing hereunder, the requesting Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing that, to its actual knowledge, as of the date of the requested Borrowing, the proceeds of such Borrowing will not be used by such Borrower to, directly or indirectly, either (x) purchase any asset or securities from any Lender’s “affiliate” as such term is defined in 12 C.F.R. Part 223 or (y) invest in any fund sponsored by a Lender or such “affiliate”

thereof, without the prior written consent of the applicable Lender, in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) no Lender’s consent shall be required pursuant to this Section

2.9 in order for a Borrower to use the proceeds of a Borrowing hereunder to purchase assets or securities in accordance with 12 C.F.R. section 223.42(c), (e), (f), (g) and (m) (any such purchase, an “Exempt Purchase”); and (ii) a Borrower shall not be deemed to have made the representation and warranty set forth in clause (x) above in respect of any Exempt Purchase.

2.10

Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent fees in consideration of the arrangement and administration of the Commitments, which fees shall be payable in amounts and on the dates agreed to between the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent in the Fee Letter. The Borrowers will pay to the Administrative Agent such other fees as are payable in the amount and on the date agreed to between the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent in the Fee Letter.

2.11

Unused Commitment Fee. In addition to the payments provided for in Section 3, the Borrowers shall pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, an unused commitment fee at the rate of twenty basis points (0.20%) per annum on the Commitment of the Lenders which was unused (through the extension of Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit) calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter. For purposes of this Section 2.11, the fee shall be calculated on a daily basis; provided that the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender shall be excluded in the calculation of the commitment fee and no portion of the commitment fee shall be due to a Lender for any period of time in which such Lender was a Defaulting Lender. The Credit Parties and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the unused commitment fees payable hereunder are bona fide unused commitment fees and are intended as reasonable compensation to the Lenders for committing to make funds available to the Borrowers as described herein and for no other purposes.

2.12	[Reserved].

2.13	Letters of Credit.

(a)

Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue such Letters of Credit in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency and in such aggregate face amounts as the Borrowers may request; provided that: (i) on the date of issuance, the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Liability (after giving effect to the issuance of any such Letter of Credit) will not exceed the lesser of: (A) the remainder of: (1) the Available Commitment as of such date minus

(2) the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations as of such date and (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit; (ii) each Letter of Credit shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof; (iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit shall not be later than (A) twelve

by the Letter of Credit Issuer and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York, and (v) the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after the Closing Date (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Letter of Credit Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Applicable Law applicable to the Letter of Credit Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Letter of Credit Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Letter of Credit Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Letter of Credit Issuer deems material to it, (B) the Borrowers have not provided the information necessary for the Letter of Credit Issuer to complete the form of Letter of Credit, or (C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Applicable Law or one or more policies of the Letter of Credit Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrowers request that a Letter of Credit be issued for the account of any Subsidiary, the Borrowers shall be liable for all Obligations under such Letter of Credit as if it had been issued for the account of the Borrowers.

(b)

Request. Each request for a Letter of Credit (a “Request for Letter of Credit”) shall be submitted to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit K (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith), together with a Letter of Credit Application and a Borrowing Base Certificate (each of which shall be in final form upon delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent), for the Letter of Credit Issuer, on or before 11:00 a.m. at least four (4) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (or six

(6)

Business Days with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by any branch of the Letter of Credit Issuer located outside of the United States). The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such Request for Letter of Credit and the terms of the requested Letter of Credit. Upon each such application, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have automatically made to the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and the Letter of Credit Issuer the following representations and warranties:

(i)	The Letter of Credit Liability (after giving effect to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit) will not exceed the lesser of: (A) the remainder of:

(1) the Available Commitment as of such date; minus (2) the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations as of such date; and (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit on such date; and

(ii)	All conditions precedent in Section 6.2 for the issuance of such Letter of Credit will be satisfied as of the date of such issuance.

(c)

Participation by the Lenders. Each Lender shall and does hereby participate ratably with the Letter of Credit Issuer in each Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder to the extent of its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Liability with respect to each such Letter of Credit, and shall share in all rights and obligations resulting therefrom, including, without limitation: (i) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any reimbursement of the amount of each draft drawn under each Letter of Credit, including any

interest payable with respect thereto; (ii) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit fee pursuant to Section 2.13; (iii) the right to receive from the Administrative Agent its additional costs pursuant to Section 4.1; and (iv) the obligation to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, in immediately available funds, its Pro Rata Share of any unreimbursed drawing under a Letter of Credit.

(d)

Payment of Letter of Credit. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers agree to reimburse (either with the proceeds of a Loan as provided for in this Section 2.13 or with funds from other sources), in same day funds, the Letter of Credit Issuer on each date on which the Letter of Credit Issuer notifies the Borrowers of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit (or the following Business Day if such notice is received after 12:00 p.m.) for the amount of such draft so paid and any amounts representing interest, costs, expenses or fees incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such payment. Unless the Borrowers shall immediately notify the Letter of Credit Issuer that the Borrowers intend to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for such drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely given a Request for Borrowing to the Administrative Agent (without regard to any otherwise applicable notice periods), and the Borrowers hereby authorize, empower, and direct the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Letter of Credit Issuer, to disburse directly, as a Borrowing hereunder, to the Letter of Credit Issuer, with notice to the Borrowers, in immediately available funds an amount equal to the stated amount of each draft drawn under each Letter of Credit plus all interest, costs and expenses, and fees due to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to this Credit Agreement. Subject to receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer on the Business Day on which the Letter of Credit Issuer honors any such draft or incurs or is owed any such interest, costs, expenses or fees. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers of any such disbursements made by the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of the disbursement, and the Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with notice thereof. Any such disbursement made by the Lenders to the Letter of Credit Issuer on account of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed a Reference Rate Loan if in Dollars and a LIBOR Rate Loan with a one-month Interest Period if in an Alternative Currency; and such disbursements shall be made without regard to the minimum and multiple amounts specified in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may conclusively rely on the Letter of Credit Issuer as to the amount due to the Letter of Credit Issuer by reason of any draft of a Letter of Credit or due to the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit Application. The obligations of a Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, and, as applicable, the obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Borrowings, each under this Section 2.13(d) shall be irrevocable, shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall, irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions to the making of any Loans described in Sections 2.1(b), 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and/or 6.4, as applicable, be honored in accordance with this Section 2.13(d) under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the terms of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any

transferee of a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the account party and beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit); (iv) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a draw under a Letter of Credit; (v) any payment by the Letter of Credit Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (vi) any payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; (vii) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (viii) the occurrence of any Event of Default or Potential Default; or (ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Credit Party. The Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of each request for a draw under a Letter of Credit and each draw under a Letter of Credit.

(e)

Borrower Inspection. The Borrowers shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to them and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrowers’ instructions or other irregularity, the Borrowers will immediately notify the Letter of Credit Issuer of the same in writing. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Letter of Credit Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f)

Role of Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Lender and the Credit Parties agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers from pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Letter of Credit Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses

(i) through (ix) of Section 2.13(d). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Letter of Credit Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g)

Acceleration of Undrawn Amounts. Should the Administrative Agent demand payment of the Facility Obligations hereunder prior to the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 10.2, the Administrative Agent, by written notice to the Borrowers, may take one or both of the following actions: (i) declare the obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder terminated, whereupon such obligations shall forthwith terminate without any other notice of any kind; or (ii) declare the Letter of Credit Liability to be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived, and demand that the Borrowers Cash Collateralize, as security for the Obligations, an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount at the time such notice is given. Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, upon the full and final payment of the Obligations and all Letters of Credit have expired or been fully drawn upon or Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Collateral Amount (other than Obligations in respect of a Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h)), the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrowers any amounts remaining in said Cash Collateral Account.

(h)

Cash Collateral. If (i) as of the Maturity Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, or (ii) any other circumstances under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents occurs requiring the Borrowers to Cash Collateralize any Letters of Credit, then, in each case, the Borrowers shall promptly Cash Collateralize in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount or, in the case of Section 2.13(h)(ii) above, such amount expressly required by the terms of this Credit Agreement or other Loan Document, to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Cash Collateral subject to the terms of this Section 2.13(h) and any security agreement, control agreement and other documentation requested by the Administrative Agent to be executed in connection with opening a Cash Collateral Account for the purpose of holding such Cash Collateral.

Cash Collateral held in a Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the reimbursement of the Letter of Credit Issuer for any payment made by it of drafts drawn under the outstanding Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof, after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon or been Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Collateral Amount, all Letter of Credit Liability shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations (other than Obligations in respect of a Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h)) shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, of Cash Collateral held in a Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.13(h) shall be returned to the Borrowers. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and agree to maintain, a

first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral and in each Cash Collateral Account as security in respect of the Letter of Credit Liability.

(i)

Lenders’ Continuing Obligations. In the event any Letter of Credit Liability is Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.13(h) or otherwise pursuant to this Credit Agreement (including but not limited to the Cash Collateralizing of a Letter of Credit outstanding beyond the Maturity Date), each Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall continue in all respects, the Lenders will continue to be entitled to receive their Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit fee payable in accordance with Section 2.14, and the Lenders shall continue to be obligated to fund their Pro Rata Share of any drawing under such Letter of Credit in the event the Cash Collateral is for any reason unavailable or insufficient to fully fund such drawing (including, but not limited to, as a result of any preference claim or other clawback under any proceeding pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws).

(j)	Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, this Section 2.13 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4.10 and Section 12.12.

2.14

Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent: (a) for the benefit of the Lenders, in consideration for the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, a non-refundable fee equal to the Applicable Margin (plus two percent (2%) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) on the daily face amount of each Letter of Credit, less the amount of any draws on such Letter of Credit, payable in quarterly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter, commencing on the issuance date and continuing for so long as such Letter of Credit remains outstanding (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Letter of Credit that is outstanding but has been Cash Collateralized) calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 360 days; and

(b)

for the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer: (i) so long as there is at least one Lender other than the Letter of Credit Issuer, a non-refundable fronting fee equal to 12.5 basis points (0.125%) of the maximum amount of each Letter of Credit, payable in quarterly installments in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter for the preceding calendar quarter; (ii) $1,000 per requested issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit, such amount to be increased at the discretion of the Letter of Credit Issuer to offset any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with any non-standard Letters of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by a branch office outside the United States; and (iii) all other reasonable and customary out of pocket expenses actually incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer related to the issuance, amendment or transfer of Letters of Credit upon demand by the Letter of Credit Issuer.

2.15	Increase in the Maximum Commitment.

(a)

Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Event of Default or Potential Default, and subject to compliance with the terms of this Section 2.15, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent to be given in its sole and absolute discretion, the Borrowers may increase the Maximum Commitment to an amount not exceeding $150,000,000. Such increase may be done in one or more requested increases, in $25,000,000 increments, or such lesser amount to be determined by the Administrative Agent (each such increase, shall be referred to herein as a “Facility Increase”).

(b)

Effective Date. The Administrative Agent shall determine the effective date of any Facility Increase (the “Increase Effective Date”) which (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent) shall be no less than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Facility Increase Request and shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the Increase Effective Date.

(c)	Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. The following are conditions precedent to such increase:

(i)

the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Facility Increase Request and resolutions adopted by the Credit Parties approving or consenting to such increase, certified by a Responsible Officer of the Credit Parties that such resolutions are true and correct copies thereof and are in full force and effect (it being understood that the resolutions delivered as of the Closing Date may be delivered in connection with a Facility Increase so long as such resolutions remain in full force and effect);

(ii)	on or prior to the proposed date of such Facility Increase, the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the Facility Increase Fee;

(iii)

if applicable, the Borrowers shall execute replacement Notes payable to the Administrative Agent reflecting the Facility Increase;

(iv)

as of the effective date of such increase and immediately after giving effect thereto, the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date); provided that if a representation or warranty is qualified as to materiality, with respect to such representation or warranty, the foregoing materiality qualifier shall be disregarded for the purposes of this condition;

(v)	no Potential Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date on which the Facility Increase Request is delivered or immediately after giving effect to the Facility Increase;

(vi)

on the Increase Effective Date, (x) an existing Lender or Lenders shall increase its Commitment to support any Facility Increase, in its sole discretion, and/or (y) an additional Lender or Lenders shall have joined the Credit Facility in accordance with Section 12.11(g) and, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate Commitments of such increasing and additional Lenders shall be at least equal to the amount of such Facility Increase;

(vii)

the Borrowers shall have delivered to each Lender a new or updated Beneficial Ownership Certification, as applicable, in relation to each Borrower that

qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, if so requested by such Lender prior to the Increase Effective Date; and

(viii)

in the case of a new Lender joining the Credit Facility, the Borrowers shall have delivered to the new Lender favorable opinions of counsel (or reliance letters) to the Credit Parties valid in all applicable jurisdictions, substantially in a form reasonably acceptable to the new Lender and its counsel and covering such matters relating to the transactions contemplated hereby as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent evidencing the amounts owed to the Lenders.

For the avoidance of doubt, any Facility Increase will be on the same terms as contained herein with respect to the Credit Facility. No Lender will be required to commit, nor shall any Lender have any preemptive right, to provide any portion of any Facility Increase.

(d)

Reallocation Following Facility Increase. On any Increase Effective Date with respect to any Facility Increase (whether pursuant to a new Lender joining the Credit Facility or an existing Lender increasing its Commitment), the Administrative Agent will reallocate the outstanding Loans and participations in Letters of Credit hereunder (including any Loans made by any new or increasing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15) such that, after giving effect thereto, the ratio of each Lender’s (including each new or increasing Lender’s) share of outstanding Loans and participations in Letters of Credit to its share of Commitments is the same as that of each other Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, such reallocation may require the reallocation of Loans from an existing Lender to a new or increasing Lender. In connection with any such reallocation of the outstanding Loans, the (i) Administrative Agent will give advance notice sufficient to comply with the applicable timing period in Section 2.3 to each Lender which is required to fund any amount or receive any partial repayment in connection therewith and (ii) applicable Lender or Lenders will fund such amounts up to their respective shares of the Loans being reallocated and the Administrative Agent shall remit to any applicable Lenders its applicable portion of such funded amount if necessary to give effect to the reallocation of such Loans. In connection with such repayment made with respect to such reallocation (to the extent such repayment is required), the Borrowers shall pay (i) all interest due on the amount repaid to the date of repayment on the immediately following Interest Payment Date and (ii) any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.6 as a result of such reallocation occurring on any date other than an Interest Payment Date.

2.16	Trade Allocations.

(a)

Lender Hedge Agreements. From time to time, certain Fund Borrowers or entities guaranteed by certain Fund Borrowers and Specified Hedge Banks may in their sole discretion enter into Lender Hedge Agreements. The applicable Fund Borrower and such Specified Hedge Bank may secure such Fund Borrower’s obligations under such Lender Hedge Agreement with the Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents, subject to compliance with this Section 2.16. Such Lender Hedge Agreement may receive a Trade Allocation and be subject to repayment in accordance with clause (c) of Section 3.4 if in compliance with this Section 2.16.

(b)

Allocation Memos. Upon the agreement of a Fund Borrower and a Requesting Hedge Bank to enter into a Lender Hedge Agreement or to increase the amount of collateral provided in connection with a Lender Hedge Agreement, the applicable Fund Borrower may deliver an Allocation Memo, executed by such Fund Borrower and such Requesting Hedge Bank, requesting that such Lender Hedge Agreement be allocated a Trade Allocation, to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested effective date of such Trade Allocation (or such shorter period as requested by the applicable Fund Borrower and agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). So long as on the date of delivery of such Allocation Memo and the effective date of such Trade Allocation (after giving pro forma effect thereto): (A) no Event of Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations would not exceed the Available Commitment; (C) the Aggregate Outstanding Trade Allocation shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Trade Allocation; and (D) the Aggregate Outstanding Trade Allocations of the Requesting Hedge Bank shall not exceed such Requesting Hedge Bank’s Maximum Trade Allocation, the Administrative Agent shall allocate the requested amount of the Borrowing Base to the Hedge Termination Value under such Lender Hedge Agreement as set forth in such Allocation Memo, which allocations shall be effective upon the Administrative Agent’s delivery of the Allocation Memo, signed by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower and the Requesting Hedge Bank. Upon the effectiveness of such Trade Allocation, the obligations of the applicable Fund Borrower or entity guaranteed by the applicable Fund Borrower under the related Lender Hedge Agreement shall become Obligations under the Loan Documents and be secured by the Collateral pursuant to clause (c) of Section 3.4 in all respects. Promptly upon giving effect to a Trade Allocation, the Administrative Agent will give written notice thereof to the Fund Borrowers and Lenders.

(c)

Lender Hedge Agreements Not Allocated a Trade Allocation. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.16 to the contrary, a Borrower or an entity guaranteed by a Fund Borrower and a Specified Hedge Bank may in their sole discretion enter into a Lender Hedge Agreement that is not allocated a Trade Allocation in accordance with this Section 2.16; provided that the obligations under the related Lender Hedge Agreement shall be secured by the Collateral but be junior in right and in payment as set forth in clause (c) of Section 3.4. Promptly after entering a Lender Hedge Agreement which is not allocated a Trade Allocation, the applicable Specified Hedge Bank will give notice of the entry thereof to the Administrative Agent. From time to time, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Specified Hedge Bank will notify the Administrative Agent of the Hedge Termination Value of each Lender Hedge Agreement

(d)

Increases in Trade Allocations. If, on any date, the Hedge Termination Value under a Lender Hedge Agreement has moved against the applicable Fund Borrower or entity guaranteed by the applicable Borrower and additional collateral is required pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lender Hedge Agreement, then the applicable Requesting Hedge Bank and applicable Fund Borrower may deliver an Allocation Memo to the Administrative Agent requesting that such Lender Hedge Agreement be allocated an additional Trade Allocation by no later than 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested effective date of such Trade Allocation (or such shorter period as requested by the applicable Requesting Hedge Bank and applicable Fund Borrower and agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). So long as on the date of delivery of such Allocation Memo and the effective date of such additional Trade Allocation (after giving pro forma effect thereto): (A) no Event of Default or Potential

Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations would not exceed the Available Commitment; (C) the Aggregate Outstanding Trade Allocation shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Trade Allocation; and (D) the Aggregate Outstanding Trade Allocations of the Requesting Hedge Bank shall not exceed such Requesting Hedge Bank’s Maximum Trade Allocation, the Administrative Agent shall allocate the requested additional amount of the Borrowing Base to the Hedge Termination Value under such Lender Hedge Agreement as set forth in such Allocation Memo, which allocations shall be effective upon the Administrative Agent’s delivery of the Allocation Memo, signed by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower and the Requesting Hedge Bank. Promptly upon giving effect to a Trade Allocation, the Administrative Agent will give written notice thereof to the Fund Borrowers and Lenders and the applicable Fund Borrower will deliver an updated Borrowing Base Certificate to the Administrative Agent promptly thereafter.

(e)

Order of Allocation Memos. Allocation Memos shall be emailed to the Administrative Agent at its email address as set forth in Section 12.6. The Administrative Agent shall process Allocation Memos in the order in which they are received on a first come, first serve basis based on the time stamp on the email so received.

(f)

Reduction of Trade Allocations. In the event that a Lender Hedge Agreement is never formally entered into, has been terminated or the applicable Requesting Hedge Bank and the applicable Fund Borrower agree that the Trade Allocation with respect thereto can be reduced, the applicable Fund Borrower will deliver an Allocation Memo, executed by such Borrower and such Requesting Hedge Bank, requesting that the related Trade Allocation be eliminated or reduced, as applicable, to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested effective date of such reduction or elimination of the Trade Allocation (or such shorter period as requested by the applicable Fund Borrower and agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). On the next Business Day following receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall reduce or eliminate, as applicable, the Trade Allocation allocated to such Lender Hedge Agreement as requested in such Allocation Memo and such reduction or elimination shall become effective. Promptly upon giving effect thereto, the Administrative Agent will give written notice thereof to the Fund Borrowers and Lenders.

(g)

Administrative Agent to Maintain Records of the Borrowing Base and Trade Allocations. The Administrative Agent shall at all times post the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and/or Allocation Memo delivered to it hereunder by a Fund Borrower or Requesting Hedge Bank, as applicable, on an electronic communication system reasonably selected by it to enable the Fund Borrowers and Lenders to view the then current Borrowing Base (including the outstanding Trade Allocations). The Administrative Agent shall at all times maintain records of the Trade Allocations outstanding with respect to Lender Hedge Agreements. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Lender will promptly inform the Administrative Agent of the Hedge Termination Value of each Lender Hedge Agreement.

(h)	Cash Collateral and Other Security.

(i)	If any circumstance under any Lender Hedge Agreement occurs or would occur as a result of any action taken under this Credit Agreement that would require the Fund Borrowers or entity guaranteed by a Fund Borrower to cash

collateralize such Lender Hedge Agreement or otherwise satisfy any requirements or conditions related to collateral pursuant to the terms of such Lender Hedge Agreement, then the Fund Borrowers or entity guaranteed by a Fund Borrower shall promptly cash collateralize all outstanding Obligations with respect to such Lender Hedge Agreement or otherwise satisfy all such conditions or requirements related to collateral, as applicable, under such Lender Hedge Agreement in each case, in accordance with the terms of such Lender Hedge Agreement.

(ii)

If any Lender Hedge Agreement will remain in effect beyond the Maturity Date, to the extent that it is necessary for the Credit Parties to issue a Capital Call to meet cash collateralization requirements in connection with such Lender Hedge Agreement, the Credit Parties shall issue such Capital Call at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

3.	PAYMENT OF OBLIGATIONS.

3.1

Revolving Credit Notes. Any Lender may request that the Loans be evidenced by a Note. In such event, each Borrower shall execute and deliver a Note or Notes in the form of Exhibit B (with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith), in favor of such Lender. Each Borrower agrees, from time to time, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, to reissue a new Note, in accordance with the terms and in the form heretofore provided, to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, in renewal of and substitution for the Note previously issued by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and such previously issued Note shall be returned to such Borrower marked “replaced” or “cancelled”.

3.2	Payment of Obligations. The Principal Obligations outstanding on the Maturity Date, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any other outstanding Facility Obligations, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

3.3	Payment of Interest.

(a)

Interest. Interest on each Borrowing and any portion thereof shall commence to accrue in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of the date of the disbursement or wire transfer of such Borrowing by the Administrative Agent, consistent with the provisions of Section 2.6, notwithstanding whether the Borrowers received the benefit of such Borrowing as of such date and even if such Borrowing is held in escrow pursuant to the terms of any escrow arrangement or agreement. When a Borrowing is disbursed by wire transfer pursuant to instructions received from the Borrowers in accordance with the related Request for Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be considered made at the time of the transmission of the wire, rather than the time of receipt thereof by the receiving bank. With regard to the repayment of the Loans, interest shall continue to accrue on any amount repaid until such time as the repayment has been received in federal funds or other Same Day Funds by the Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s account described in Section 3.4, or any other account of the Administrative Agent which the Administrative Agent designates in writing to the Borrowers.

(b)

Interest Payment Dates. Accrued and unpaid interest on the Facility Obligations shall be due and payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date, (ii) on each other date of any reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans hereunder, and (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at any time upon demand by the Administrative Agent. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

3.4	Payments on the Obligations.

(a)

Credit Party Payments. All payments of principal of, and interest on, the Facility Obligations under this Credit Agreement by any Credit Party to or for the account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be made without condition or deduction or counterclaim, set-off, defense or recoupment by the Borrowers for receipt by the Administrative Agent before 1:00 p.m. in the case of payments made in Dollars and 11:00

a.m. in the case of payments made in an Alternative Currency (or, in each case, such later time as the Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion), in each case, in federal funds or other Same Day Funds to the Administrative Agent at account number 01104331628807 at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, ABA No.: 121 000 248, account name “Agency Services Clearing Account”, reference “AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.”, or any other account of the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent designates in writing to the Borrowers. Funds received after 1:00 p.m. in the case of payments made in Dollars or after 11:00 a.m. in the case of payments made in an Alternative Currency, as applicable, shall (unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent) be treated for all purposes as having been received by the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day next following receipt of such funds. All payments shall be made in the currency of the related Borrowing.

(b)

Lender Payments. Except as provided in Section 12.12, each Lender shall be entitled to receive its Pro Rata Share of each payment received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders on the Facility Obligations. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of a Lender shall be promptly distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Lender. The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that payments to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers of principal of, and interest on, the Facility Obligations by the Borrowers to or for the account of the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall constitute satisfaction of the Borrowers’ obligations with respect to any such payments, and the Administrative Agent shall indemnify, and each Lender shall hold harmless, the Borrowers from any claims asserted by any Lender in connection with the Administrative Agent’s duty to distribute and apportion such payments to the Lenders in accordance with this Section 3.4.

(c)

Application of Payments. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments made on the Obligations shall be applied as directed by the Borrowers. At all times when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments made on the Obligations shall be credited, to the extent of the amount thereof, in the following manner: (i) first, against all costs, expenses and other fees (including

attorneys’ fees) arising under the terms hereof; (ii) second, against the amount of interest accrued and unpaid on the Facility Obligations as of the date of such payment; (iii) third, pro rata against: (a) all Principal Obligations due and owing to the Lenders as of the date of such payment and (b) the Hedge Termination Values of each Lender Hedge Agreement that has been allocated a Trade Allocation as of the date of such payment; provided that the aggregate Hedge Termination Values of each Specified Hedge Bank’s Lender Hedge Agreements shall not exceed such Specified Hedge Bank’s aggregate Trade Allocations as of the date of such payment for purposes of this subsection (iii); (iv) fourth, to all other amounts constituting any portion of the Facility Obligations; and (v) fifth, against any remaining amounts due and owing in respect of Lender Hedge Agreements pro rata based on each applicable Specified Hedge Bank’s share of the Obligations of such Fund Borrower or such entity guaranteed by a Fund Borrower then outstanding.

3.5	Prepayments.

(a)

Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty on any Business Day; provided that: (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may approve in its sole discretion) (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans (other than any LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR) denominated in Dollars, (B) four (4) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans (other than any LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR) denominated in an Alternative Currency; and (C) one (1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Reference Rate Loans or any LIBOR Rate Loan based on Daily LIBOR; and (ii) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of

$500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such written notice is given by the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Facility Obligations held by each Lender in accordance with its respective Pro Rata Share.

(b)	Mandatory Prepayment.

(i)

Excess Loans Outstanding. If, on any day the Dollar Equivalent of the Principal Obligations exceeds the Available Commitment (including as a result of an Exclusion Event), then the Borrowers shall pay without further demand such excess to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in Same Day Funds (except to the extent any such excess is addressed by Section 3.5(b)(ii)), by the Required Payment Time. Each Credit Party hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may withdraw from any Collateral Account any Capital

Contributions deposited therein and apply the same to the Principal Obligations until such time as the payment obligations of this Section 3.5(b) have been satisfied in full.

(ii)

Excess Letters of Credit Outstanding. If any excess calculated pursuant to Section 3.5(b) is attributable to undrawn Letters of Credit, the Borrowers shall promptly Cash Collateralize such excess with the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Section 2.13(h), as security for such portion of the Obligations. Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, upon: (A) a change in circumstances such that the Dollar Equivalent of Principal Obligations no longer exceeds the Available Commitment; or (B) the full and final payment of the Obligations (other than Obligations in respect of a Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h)) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrowers any amounts remaining in said Cash Collateral Account.

3.6

Reduction or Early Termination of Commitments. So long as no Request for Borrowing or Request for Letter of Credit is outstanding, the Borrowers may terminate the Commitments, or reduce the Maximum Commitment, by giving prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent of such termination or reduction three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (which date shall be specified by the Borrowers in such notice and shall be a Business Day): (a) (i) in the case of complete termination of the Commitments, upon prepayment of all of the outstanding Facility Obligations, including all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of Section 3.3; or (ii) in the case of a reduction of the Maximum Commitment, upon prepayment of the amount by which the Principal Obligations exceed the reduced Available Commitment resulting from such reduction, including payment of all interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of Section 3.3; provided that, the Maximum Commitment may not be terminated or reduced such that, the Available Commitment would be less than the aggregate stated amount of outstanding Letters of Credit unless such Letters of Credit are Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Collateral Amount; and (b) in the case of the complete termination of the Commitments,

(i) if any Letter of Credit Liability exists, upon payment to the Administrative Agent of the Cash Collateral for deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 2.13(h) and (ii) if and to the extent any Obligations remain under any Lender Hedge Agreements, such Obligations must be cash collateralized or paid in accordance with the terms of such Lender Hedge Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (x) any reduction of the Maximum Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or multiples thereof; and (y) in no event shall a reduction by the Borrowers reduce the Maximum Commitment to less than $10,000,000 (except for a termination of all the Commitments). Promptly after receipt of any notice of reduction or termination, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the same. Any reduction of the Maximum Commitment shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders according to their Pro Rata Share.

3.7	Lending Office. Each Lender may: (a) designate its principal office or a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender as its Lending Office (and the office to whose accounts payments are to be credited) for any Loan and (b) change its Lending Office from time to time by

notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. In such event, the Administrative Agent shall continue to hold the Note, if any, evidencing the Loans attributable to such Lender for the benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate. Each Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment in any manner it deems appropriate, consistent with the provisions of Section 2.5.

3.8	Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower acknowledges, agrees, represents and warrants the following:

(a)

Inducement. The Lenders have been induced to make the Loans to, and the Letter of Credit Issuer has been induced to issue Letters of Credit for the account of, and the Specified Hedge Banks have been induced to enter into Lender Hedge Agreements with, the Borrowers in part based upon the assurances by each Borrower that each Borrower desires that all Obligations under the Loan Documents be honored and enforced as separate obligations of each Borrower, should the Administrative Agent and the Lenders desire to do so.

(b)

Combined Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to the Lenders for all representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and indemnities, including, without limitation, the Loans, the Letters of Credit and the other Obligations, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may at their option enforce the entire amount of the Loans, the Letters of Credit and the other Obligations against any one or more of the Borrowers.

(c)

Separate Exercise of Remedies. The Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may exercise remedies against each Borrower and its property separately, whether or not the Administrative Agent exercises remedies against any other Borrower or its property. The Administrative Agent may enforce one or more Borrower’s obligations without enforcing any other Borrower’s obligations and vice versa. Any failure or inability of the Administrative Agent to enforce one or more Borrower’s obligations shall not in any way limit the Administrative Agent’s right to enforce the obligations of the other Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent forecloses or exercises similar remedies under any one or more Collateral Documents, then such foreclosure or similar remedy shall be deemed to reduce the balance of the Loans only to the extent of the cash proceeds actually realized by the Lenders from such foreclosure or similar remedy or, if applicable, the Administrative Agent’s credit bid at such sale, regardless of the effect of such foreclosure or similar remedy on the Loans secured by such Collateral Documents under the applicable state law.

4.	CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES.

4.1

Taxes.

(a)	Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 4.1, the term “Lender” includes the Letter of Credit Issuer and the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b)	Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction

or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c)

Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. Without duplication of other amounts payable by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 4.1(b) above, each Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d)	Tax Indemnification.

(i)

Each Borrower shall, and each does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.1) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii)

Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (x) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower to do so), (y) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.11 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability in reasonable detail delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing

to such Lender under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

(e)

Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Credit Party to a Governmental Authority, such Credit Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f)	Status of Lenders.

(i)

Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 4.1(f)(ii)(A), 4.1(f)(ii)(B) and 4.1(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

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

(A)

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

(B)

any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested in writing by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable

written request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,

U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W- 8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)	executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit R-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4)	to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-BEN-E, a

U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit R-2 or Exhibit R-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a

U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of

Exhibit R-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)

copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)

if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.1(f)(ii)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

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

(g)

Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the written request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 4.1(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.1(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.1(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or

otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 4.1(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)

Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i)

On or before the date the Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Initial Borrower an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. At any time thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously provided has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers.

4.2

Illegality. (a) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Lender has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans or other Facility Obligations, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to (i) purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, the applicable currency or (ii) determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, (A) in the case of any determination described in the foregoing clause (i), any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Loans or the Obligations in such currency shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist and, until such time, the Loans or Facility Obligations of such Lender in such currency shall, at the option of the Borrower, be converted to, and shall continue, as Reference Rate Loans and Facility Obligations denominated in Dollars in an amount equal to the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of such Loans and Obligations immediately prior to such suspension, and (B) in the case of any determination described in the foregoing clause (ii), any obligation of such Lender to maintain Loans accruing interest at the LIBOR Rate, or to convert Loans accruing interest calculated by reference to the Reference Rate (without giving effect to clause (c) of the definition of Reference Rate) to be Loans accruing interest calculated by reference to the LIBOR Rate, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist and, until such time, the Loans or Obligations of such Lender outstanding at the time of such suspension shall, at the option of the applicable Borrower, be continued either (i) as Reference Rate Loans if denominated in Dollars or (ii) as Cost of Funds Rate Loans if denominated in an Alternate Currency. Upon the prepayment of any such Loans, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

4.3

Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines, for any proposed Interest Period, that: (a) deposits in Dollars are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of any LIBOR Rate Loan; or (b) LIBOR does not adequately or fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan, then: (i) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Lenders and the Borrowers; and (ii) while such circumstances exist, none of the Lenders shall allocate any Loans made during such period, or reallocate any Loans allocated to any then-existing Interest Period ending during such period, to an Interest Period with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to LIBOR. If, with respect to any outstanding Interest Period, a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that it is unable to obtain matching deposits in the London interbank market to fund its purchase or maintenance of such Loans or that LIBOR applicable to such Loans will not adequately reflect the cost to the Person of funding or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, then: (A) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders; and (B) upon such notice and thereafter while such circumstances exist, the applicable Lender shall not make any LIBOR Rate Loans during such period or reallocate any Loans allocated to any Interest Period ending during such period, to an Interest Period with respect to which interest is calculated by reference to LIBOR; provided that, (x) if the foregoing notice relates to Loans that are outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans, such Loans shall be Converted to Reference Rate Loans if denominated in Dollars or LIBOR Rate Loans based off the Cost of Funds Rate if denominated in an Alternative Currency only on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, and (y) upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any outstanding Requests for Borrowing.

4.4	Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(a)

Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Credit Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrowers so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 4.4 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b)

Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Credit Agreement.

(c)

Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 4.4, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non- occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.4.

(d)

Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrowers may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period, provided that, if such request is not revoked, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to a Reference Rate Loan. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Reference Rate based upon LIBOR will not be used in any determination of Reference Rate.

4.5	Increased Cost and Capital Adequacy.

(a)	Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)

impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in Adjusted LIBOR) or any Letter of Credit Issuer; or

(ii)

subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)

impose on any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Credit Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount

of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer or such other Recipient participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or other Recipient, the Borrowers shall pay within the Required Payment Time to any such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)

Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Credit Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written request of such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, by the Required Payment Time, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)

Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer setting forth the calculations showing the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, as specified in Section 4.5(a) or Section 4.5(b) and delivered to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate by the Required Payment Time.

(d)

Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to this Section 4 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered if such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, fails to notify Borrowers of such increased cost or reduction suffered, and of such Lender’s or Letter of Credit Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor, within six (6) months following

the later of (i) the date of the incurrence of such increased cost or reduction suffered (except that if a Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof), and (ii) the date on which such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer became actually aware of such increased costs or reduction suffered.

4.6

Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrowers shall promptly pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for, and hold such Lender harmless from, any loss (other than lost profits), cost or expense incurred by such Lender in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties as a result of (a) any failure or refusal of the Borrowers (for any reasons whatsoever other than a default by the Administrative Agent or any Lender) to accept a Loan after the Borrowers shall have requested such Loan under this Credit Agreement, (b) any prepayment or other payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, (c) any other prepayment of a Loan that is otherwise not made in compliance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, (d) the failure of the Borrowers to make a prepayment of a Loan after giving notice under this Credit Agreement, that such prepayment will be made, or (e) the failure of any Borrower Party to make payment of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency.

4.7

Requests for Compensation. If requested by the Borrowers in connection with any demand for payment pursuant to this Section 4, a Lender shall provide to the Borrowers, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand, the amount required to be paid by the Borrowers to such Lender and the computations made by such Lender to determine such amount, such certificate to be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. This Section 4.7 shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it reasonably deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person, as long as the certificate described in the immediately preceding sentence is provided. Any such amount payable by the Borrowers shall not be duplicative of any amounts (a) previously paid under this Section 4, or (b) included in the calculation of LIBOR.

4.8

Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, all of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 4 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and Commitments or the termination of this Credit Agreement or any provision hereof. Each Lender shall notify the Borrowers of any event occurring after the termination of this Credit Agreement entitling such Lender to compensation under this Section 4 as promptly as practicable.

4.9	Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)

Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.5, or requires any Borrower to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1, then such Lender shall, at the request of the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts

to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.5 or Section 4.1, or remove the prohibition pursuant to Section 4.2, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)

Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.5, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1 or is unable to fund a LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 4.2, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 4.9(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.11), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 4.5 or Section 4.1) and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i)	the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 12.11;

(ii)

such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under this Section 4) from the Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal) or the Borrowers (in the case of accrued interest, fees and all other amounts);

(iii)

in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.5 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv)	such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(v)	in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

4.10

Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, by the Required Payment Time, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 12.12(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(a)

Grant of Security Interest; Other Claims/Deficiency. (i) The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of the Letter of Credit Liability, to be applied pursuant to Section 4.10(b). (ii) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or the Letter of Credit Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b)

Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.10 or Section 12.12 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of the Letter of Credit Liability (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c)

Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Exposure of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.10 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer that there exists Cash Collateral in excess of the Minimum Collateral Amount; provided that, subject to Section 12.12, the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Letter of Credit Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; provided, further that, to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrowers, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

SECURITY.

5.1

Liens.

(a)

Capital Commitments and Capital Calls. To secure performance by the Borrowers of the payment and the performance of the Obligations, the Credit Parties, each to the extent of their respective interests therein, shall grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties, a first priority security interest and Lien in and on the Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreements, the related financing statements and the other related documents.

(b)

Reliance. The Fund Parties agree that the Administrative Agent and each Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer have entered into this Credit Agreement, extended credit hereunder and at the time of each Loan or each issuance of a Letter of Credit, will make such Loan or issue such Letter of Credit in reasonable reliance on the obligations of the Investors to fund their respective Capital Commitments as shown in their Subscription Agreements delivered in connection herewith and accordingly, it is the intent of the parties that such Capital Commitments may be enforced by the Administrative Agent, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2(b), on behalf of the Lenders and other Secured Parties, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, directly against the Investors without further action by any Credit Party, and notwithstanding any compromise of any such Capital Commitment by any Credit Party, as applicable, after the Closing Date.

The security agreements, financing statements, assignments, collateral assignments and any other documents and instruments from time to time executed and delivered pursuant to this Credit Agreement to grant, perfect and continue a Lien in the Collateral, including the Security Agreements, the Collateral Account Pledges and the Control Agreements, and any documents or instruments amending or supplementing the same, shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral Documents.”

5.2	The Collateral Accounts; Capital Calls.

(a)

The Collateral Accounts. In order to secure further the payment and the performance of the Obligations and to effect and facilitate the right of the Secured Parties, the Fund Parties shall require that Investors in the Fund Parties wire transfer to such Fund Party’s Collateral Account all monies or sums paid or to be paid by the Investors pursuant to Capital Calls. In addition, each Credit Party shall promptly deposit into the applicable Collateral Account any payments and monies that such Credit Party receives directly from Investors as Capital Contributions.

(b)

Use of the Collateral Accounts. The Credit Parties may withdraw funds from the Collateral Accounts only in compliance with Section 9.18. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Control Event, the Administrative Agent is authorized to take exclusive control of the Collateral Accounts. If the applicable Account Bank with respect to any Collateral Account ceases to be Wells Fargo or an Eligible Institution, each applicable Fund Party shall have thirty (30) days following notice from the Administrative Agent to move its Collateral Account to a replacement Account Bank

that is Wells Fargo or an Eligible Institution. If an Account Bank terminates a Control Agreement, the applicable Fund Party shall open a new collateral account that is subject to a new Control Agreement with a replacement Account Bank within thirty (30) days (or such later period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) of the earlier of (i) such termination and (ii) the terminating Account Bank providing notice of its intent to terminate such Control Agreement.

(c)

No Duty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, it is expressly understood and agreed that neither the Administrative Agent, Letter of Credit Issuer, nor any other Secured Party undertakes any duties, responsibilities, or liabilities with respect to the Capital Calls issued by the Fund Parties. None of them shall be required to refer to the Constituent Documents of any Credit Party, or a Subscription Agreement or any Side Letter, or take any other action with respect to any other matter that might arise in connection with the Constituent Documents of any Credit Party, a Subscription Agreement, a Side Letter or any Capital Call. None of them shall have any duty to determine or inquire into any happening or occurrence or any performance or failure of performance of any Credit Party or any of the Investors. None of them shall have any duty to inquire into the use, purpose, or reasons for the making of any Capital Call by any Credit Party or the Investment or use of the proceeds thereof.

(d)

Capital Calls and Disbursements from the Collateral Accounts. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Secured Parties, acting through the Administrative Agent, to charge from time to time the Collateral Accounts, and any other accounts of any Credit Party maintained at any Secured Party (including the Cash Collateral Account), for amounts not paid when due (after the passage of any applicable grace period) to the Secured Parties or any of them hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that promptly after any disbursement of funds from any such account to the Secured Parties, as contemplated in this Section 5.2(d), the Administrative Agent shall deliver a written notice of such disbursement to the Borrowers.

(e)

No Representations. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall be deemed to make at any time any representation or warranty as to the validity of any Capital Call nor shall the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties be accountable for any Borrower Party’s use of the proceeds of any Capital Contribution.

5.3	[Reserved].

5.4

Subordination. During the continuance of an Event of Default or if a mandatory prepayment has been triggered under Section 3.5(b) of this Credit Agreement, and if any Obligations are outstanding at such time, no Credit Party shall make any payments or advances of any kind (except as provided in the following proviso), directly or indirectly, on any debts and liabilities to any other Credit Party, any Investor or the Fund Advisor whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether direct, indirect, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and howsoever evidenced or created (collectively, the “Other Claims”); provided that the Borrowers may reimburse the Fund Advisor for out-of-pocket expenses notwithstanding the continuance of an Event of Default.

7.3

No Conflicts or Consents. None of the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, the consummation of any of the transactions herein or therein contemplated, or the compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or with the terms and provisions thereof, will contravene or conflict, in any material respect, with any provision of law, statute or regulation to which any Credit Party is subject or any judgment, license, order or permit applicable to any Credit Party or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement or instrument to which any Credit Party is a party or by which any Credit Party may be

bound, or to which any Credit Party may be subject. No material consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or Governmental Authority, Investor or third party is required in connection with the execution and delivery by any Credit Party of the Loan Documents or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including its Constituent Documents, except, in each case, for that which has already been waived or obtained.

7.5

Priority of Liens. The Collateral Documents create, as security for the Obligations, valid and enforceable and, once any applicable filings have been made, a perfected first priority Lien on all of the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, subject to no other Liens, except as enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Such Liens on the Collateral shall be superior to and prior to the rights of all third parties in such Collateral, and, other than in connection with any future Change in Law or in the applicable Credit Party’s name, identity or structure, or its jurisdiction of organization, formation or incorporation, as the case may be, no further recordings or Filings are or will be required in connection with the creation, perfection or enforcement of such security interests and Liens, other than the filing of continuation statements in accordance with Applicable Law. Each Lien referred to in this Section 7.5 is and shall be the sole and exclusive Lien on the Collateral.

7.6

Financial Condition. The Credit Parties have delivered to the Administrative Agent the most recently available copies of the financial statements and reports described in Section 8.1 and the related statement of income, in each case (except with respect to any financial statements delivered prior to the Closing Date) certified by a Responsible Officer of such Credit Party to the effect that such financial statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of such Credit Party as of the applicable date of delivery (or in the case of a pro forma balance sheet, estimated financial condition based on assumptions that such pro forma balance sheet has been prepared in accordance with GAAP, except as provided therein). For the avoidance of doubt, such representation relating to the financial statements shall be without qualification, exception or any other statement which has the effect of modifying the opinions therein (but in the case of unaudited statements, subject to the absence of footnotes and ordinary year-end adjustments).

7.7	Full Disclosure.

7.13

ERISA. Each Borrower and Guarantor satisfies an exception under the Plan Asset Regulations so that its underlying assets do not constitute Plan Assets. The execution, delivery and performance of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the enforcement of the Obligations directly against the Investors, and the borrowing and repayment of amounts under this Credit Agreement, do not and will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Internal Revenue Code.

No Credit Party is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, and no proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used: (a) to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock; (b) to reduce or retire any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any such Margin Stock; or (c) for any other purpose which, in the case of any one of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), would result in a violation of Regulation T, U, or X.

No Loan or Letter of Credit will be secured at any time by, and the Collateral in which any Credit Party has granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties, a security interest and Lien pursuant to the Collateral Documents will not contain at any time any Margin Stock.

(b)

The business and other activities of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder, the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof by the Borrowers and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents do not result in a material violation or breach

106

without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind (other than notice of such declaration) all of which the Credit Parties hereby expressly waive, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document; (iv) exercise any right, privilege, or power set forth in Sections 5.2 and 8.10 and in the Collateral Documents, including, but not limited to, the initiation of Capital Calls of the Uncalled Capital Commitments, subject to Section 10.2(b) below; (v) suspend the obligation of the Lenders to maintain LIBOR Rate Loans and (vi) without notice of default or demand, pursue and enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, or otherwise provided under or pursuant to any Applicable Law (including under the UCC) or agreement; provided that if any Event of Default specified in Sections 10.1(h) or 10.1(i) shall occur, the principal of, and all interest on, the Facility Obligations shall thereupon become due and payable concurrently therewith, without any further action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of which each of the Credit Parties hereby expressly waives.

(b)

Actions with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, is hereby authorized, in the name of the Secured Parties or the name of any Credit Party, at any time or from time to time during the existence of an Event of Default, to: (i) initiate one or more Capital Calls in order to pay the Obligations then due and owing; (ii) notify the Investors to make all payments due or to become due with respect to their Capital Commitments directly to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties or to an account other than the Collateral Accounts; (iii) take or bring in any Credit Party’s name, or that of the Secured Parties, all steps, actions, suits, or proceedings deemed by the Administrative Agent necessary or desirable to effect possession or collection of payments of the Capital Commitments of the Investors;

(iv) complete any contract or agreement of any Credit Party in any way related to payment of any of the Capital Commitments of the Investors; (v) make allowances or adjustments related to the Capital Commitments of the Investors; (vi) compromise any claims related to the Capital Commitments of Investors; (vii) issue credit in its own name or the name of any Credit Party; (viii) deliver a written demand on the applicable Borrower or General Partner to issue a Capital Call on the Investors, up to the amount of the Uncalled Capital Commitments, for Capital Contributions in an aggregate amount equal to the Obligations;

(ix) take possession of all amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account for the purpose of applying such amounts to reduce the outstanding Obligations hereunder in the order of payment priority provided in this Credit Agreement; or (x) exercise any other right, privilege, power, or remedy provided to any Credit Party under its respective Constituent Documents and the Subscription Agreements with respect to the Capital Commitments of Investors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall, prior to exercising its rights to issue such Capital Calls on the Uncalled Capital Commitments of Investors or the exercise of other remedies, be required to give five (5) Business Days’ written notice to Fund Parties of its intention to issue such Capital Calls; provided, that no such notice is required to the extent that the applicable Borrower or General Partner has failed to issue a Capital Call on the Investors in an amount equal to the Obligations, within five (5) Business Days after the Administrative Agent has delivered demand therefor to such Borrower or

107

General Partner in accordance with the preceding clause (viii). If the Fund Parties shall make Capital Calls at any time prior to or within such five (5) Business Day-period that will, if funded, cure such Event of Default, or shall repay all outstanding Obligations, then the Administrative Agent shall not exercise the remedies set forth in this Section 10.2 (other than assuming control of the Collateral Accounts and taking such actions as may be required to protect the rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relating to any Credit Party or all or any material part of any Credit Party’s respective property) for a period of ten (10) Business Days. Regardless of any provision hereof, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Secured Parties shall be liable for failure to collect or for failure to exercise diligence in the collection, possession, or any transaction concerning, all or part of the Capital Calls or the Capital Commitment or sums due or paid thereon, nor shall they be under any obligation whatsoever to anyone by virtue of the security interests and Liens relating to the Capital Commitment, subject to the Internal Revenue Code. The Administrative Agent shall give the Fund Parties notice of actions taken pursuant to this Section 10.2(b) concurrently with, or promptly after, the taking of such action, but its failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such action, nor shall such failure give rise to defenses to the Fund Parties’ obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Credit Parties shall be authorized to issue Capital Calls only if the proceeds of such Capital Calls are used to pay any Obligations which have become due, or otherwise to cure the Event of Default.

(c)

Additional Action by the Administrative Agent. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, issuance by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties of a receipt to any Person obligated to pay any capital contribution shall be a full and complete release, discharge, and acquittance to such Person to the extent of any amount so paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties so long as such amounts shall not be invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any insolvency law, state or federal law, common law or equitable doctrine. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, is hereby authorized and empowered, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, on behalf of any Credit Party, to endorse the name of any Credit Party upon any check, draft, instrument, receipt, instruction, or other document or items, including, but not limited to, all items evidencing payment upon a Capital Contribution of any Person to any Credit Party coming into the Administrative Agent’s possession, and to receive and apply the proceeds therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, is hereby granted an irrevocable power of attorney, which is coupled with an interest, to execute all checks, drafts, receipts, instruments, instructions, or other documents, agreements, or items on behalf of any Credit Party, either before or after demand of payment of the Obligations, as shall be deemed by the Administrative Agent to be necessary or advisable, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, to protect the first priority security interests and Liens in the Collateral or the repayment of the Obligations, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Secured Parties, in the absence

108

of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall incur any liability in connection with or arising from its exercise of such power of attorney.

The application by the Administrative Agent of such funds shall, unless the Lenders shall agree otherwise in writing, be the same as set forth in Section 3.4. The Credit Parties acknowledge that all funds so transferred into the Collateral Accounts shall be the property of the applicable Fund Party, subject to the first priority, exclusive security interest of the Administrative Agent therein.

10.3

Lender Offset. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Credit Party against any and all of the Obligations of any Borrower or such Credit Party now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations of any Borrower or such Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Affiliate different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4(c) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.3 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.4

Performance by the Administrative Agent. Should any Credit Party fail to perform any covenant, duty, or agreement contained herein or in any of the Loan Documents, and such failure continues beyond any applicable cure period, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty, or agreement on behalf of such Person. In such event, the Credit Parties shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent at its designated Agency Services Address, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders assume any liability or responsibility for the performance of any duties of the Credit Parties, or

109

any related Person hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or other control over the management and affairs of any Credit Party, or any related Person, nor by any such action shall the Administrative Agent or the Lenders be deemed to create a partnership arrangement with any Credit Party, or any related Person.

10.5

Good Faith Duty to Cooperate. In the event that the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders elect to commence the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3 as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Credit Parties agree to cooperate in good faith with the Administrative Agent to enable the Administrative Agent to issue Capital Calls and enforce the payment thereof by the Investors, including but not limited to providing contact information for each Investor within two (2) Business Days of request.

11.	AGENCY PROVISIONS.

11.1	Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

(a)

Authority. Each Lender (including any Person that is an Assignee, Participant, secured party or other transferee with respect to the interest of such Lender in any Principal Obligation or otherwise under this Credit Agreement) (collectively with such Lender, a “Lender Party”) hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes each Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, nor shall any Agent have or been deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against any Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and none of the Credit Parties, any Investor, or any Affiliate of the foregoing (each, a “Borrower Party”) shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of the provisions hereof (except for the provisions that explicitly relate to the Credit Parties in Sections 11.9 and 11.10).

(b)

Release of Collateral. The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent (without any further consent of the Secured Parties), at the Administrative Agent’s option and in its sole discretion, to release any security interest in or Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent: (i) upon termination of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, termination of the Commitments and all Letters of Credit and payment in full of all of the Obligations (other

110

than (A) contingent obligations for which no claim has yet been made or (B) Obligations in respect of a Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h), including all fees and indemnified costs and expenses that are then due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents; and (ii) if approved by the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 12.1. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.1(b).

11.2

Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of legal counsel, accountants, and other professionals selected by such Agent concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care, nor shall it be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such Persons. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 11 shall apply to any such sub-agent of such Agent.

11.3

Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its affiliates, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact (each such person, an “Agent-Related Person”), shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Loan Documents (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or be responsible in any manner to any Lender Party for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Borrower Parties contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by such Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan Documents, or for any failure of any Borrower Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Credit Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made by any Borrower Party in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Agent-Related Person to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower Parties to the Agent-Related Person or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of Letters of Credit or of the existence or possible existence of any Potential Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower Parties. The Agents are not trustees for the Lenders and owe no fiduciary duty to the Lenders. Each Lender Party recognizes and agrees that Administrative Agent shall not be required to determine independently whether the conditions described in Sections 6.2(a) or 6.2(b) have been satisfied and, when Administrative Agent disburses funds to Borrowers or the Letter of Credit Issuer causes Letters of Credit to be issued or accepts any Qualified Borrower Guaranties, it may rely fully upon statements contained in the relevant requests by a Borrower Party.

111

11.4

Reliance on Communications. The Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, email, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any of the Borrower Parties, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents with reasonable care). Each Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 12.11(c). Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically required, all of the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns).

11.5

Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower Party referring to the Loan Document, describing such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders and as is permitted by the Loan Documents.

11.6

Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent-Related Person hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Borrower Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or

112

creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

11.7

Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify, upon demand, each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by a Borrower Party and without limiting any obligation of the Borrower Parties to do so), ratably in accordance with the applicable Lender’s respective Lender’s Pro Rata Share, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following payment in full of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by it under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or related to another Lender; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 11.7. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower Parties. The agreements in this Section 11.7 shall survive the termination of the Commitments, payment of all of the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, as well as the resignation or replacement of any Agent.

11.8

Agents in Their Individual Capacity. Each Agent (and any successor acting as an Agent) and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any Borrower Party (or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as though such Agent were not an Agent or a Lender hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, any Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower Parties or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that such Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to the Loans made and Letters of Credit issued and all obligations owing to it, an Agent acting in its individual capacity shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

113

11.9	Successor Agents.

(a)	Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(i)

The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Borrowers, which resignation shall not become effective until the Resignation Effective Date (as defined below). Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers and subject to the consent of the Borrowers (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such resignation), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Letter of Credit Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(ii)

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a successor with the consent of the Borrowers as provided in clause (a). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(iii)

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (A) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Letter of Credit Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (B) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become

114

vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 11 and Section 12.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(iv)

Any resignation by Wells Fargo as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.9 shall also constitute its resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (A) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer, (B) the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (C) the successor Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(b)

Resignation of Other Agents. Any other Agent may, at any time, resign upon written notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the applicable Agent, then the retiring Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor Agent from any of the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and shall assume the duties and obligations of such retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 11.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Credit Agreement.

11.10

Reliance by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be entitled to rely upon, and to act or refrain from acting on the basis of, any notice, statement, certificate, waiver or other document or instrument delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, so long as the Administrative Agent is purporting to act in its capacity as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement, and the Borrowers shall not be responsible or liable to any Lender (or to any Participant or to any Assignee), or as a result of any action or failure to act (including actions or omissions which would otherwise constitute defaults hereunder) which is based upon such

115

reliance upon Administrative Agent. The Borrowers shall be entitled to treat the Administrative Agent as the properly authorized Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement until the Borrowers shall have received notice of resignation, and the Borrowers shall not be obligated to recognize any successor Administrative Agent until the Borrowers shall have received written notification reasonably satisfactory to them of the appointment of such successor.

11.11

Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Liability shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower Parties) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)

to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Liability and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)	to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Party, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Secured Party or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Secured Party in any such proceeding.

12.	MISCELLANEOUS.

12.1

Amendments. Neither this Credit Agreement (including the exhibits hereto) nor any other Loan Document to which any Credit Party is a party, nor any of the terms hereof or thereof, may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated, unless such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination is in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent (based upon the approval of the Required Lenders), or the Required Lenders, on the one hand, and such Credit

116

Party on the other hand; and, if the rights or duties of an Agent are affected thereby, by such Agent;

provided that no such amendment, waiver, discharge, or termination shall, without the consent of:

(a)	each Lender directly affected thereby:

(i)

reduce or increase the amount or alter the term of the Commitment of such Lender, alter the provisions relating to any fees (or any other payments) payable to such Lender, or accelerate the obligations of such Lender to advance its portion of any Borrowing, as contemplated in Section 2.5 or issue or participate in any Letter of Credit, as contemplated in Section 2.13;

(ii)

extend the time for payment for the principal of or interest on the Facility Obligations, or fees or costs, or reduce the principal amount of the Facility Obligations (except as a result of the application of payments or prepayments), or reduce the rate of interest borne by the Facility Obligations (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of the Default Rate), or otherwise affect the terms of payment of the principal of or any interest on the Facility Obligations or fees or costs hereunder;

(iii)

release any Liens granted under the Collateral Documents, except as otherwise contemplated herein or therein, and except in connection with the transfer of interests in any Fund Party permitted hereunder or in any other Loan Document; and

(b)	all Lenders:

(i)	except as otherwise provided by Section 9.5 or 9.12, permit the cancellation, excuse or reduction of the Uncalled Capital Commitment or Capital Commitment of any Included Investor or Designated Investor;

(ii)

amend the definition of “Applicable Requirement”; “Available Commitment”, “Concentration Limit”, “Designated Investor”, “Eligible Institution”, “Hedge Termination Value”, “Included Investor”, “Lender Hedge Agreement”, “Maturity Date”, “Maximum Aggregate Trade Allocation”, “Maximum Trade Allocation”, “Principal Obligations”, “Trade Allocation” or the definition of any of the defined terms used therein;

(iii)

change the percentages specified in the definition of Required Lenders herein or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of the Lenders which are required to amend, waive or modify any rights hereunder or otherwise make any determination or grant any consent hereunder;

(iv)	consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Loan Documents; or

(v)	amend the terms of Section 2.16, Section 3.5(b) or this Section 12.1.

117

The Administrative Agent agrees that it will notify the Lenders of any proposed modification or amendment to any Loan Document, and deliver drafts of any such proposed modification or amendment to the Lenders, prior to the effectiveness of such proposed modification or amendment. Notwithstanding the above: (A) no provisions of Section 11 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Administrative Agent; (B) no provisions of Section 2.13 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer; and

(C) to the extent that Section 8 and Section 9 specify the requirements for waivers of the affirmative covenants and negative covenants listed therein, any amendment to such provision of Section 8 or Section 9 shall require the consent of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent that are specified therein as required for a waiver thereof. Any amendment, waiver or consent not specifically addressed in this Section 12.1 or otherwise shall be subject to the approval of Required Lenders.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; (2) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Credit Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding; and

(3)

the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, agree to the modification or waiver of any of the other terms of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any action or failure to act by any Credit Party, if such modification, waiver, or consent is of an administrative nature.

If the Administrative Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights covered by this Credit Agreement, and not receive such consent or denial thereof in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the making of such request by the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender shall be deemed to have denied its consent to the request.

12.2

Sharing of Offsets. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations (other than pursuant to Section 4 or Section 12.5) greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of obligations owing them; provided that:

(i)	if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and

(ii)	the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to

(A)	any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the

118

express terms of this Credit Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Sections 2.13(h) and 4.9 or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans and Letters of Credit to any Assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

12.3

Sharing of Collateral. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Lender and the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, agrees that if it shall, through the receipt of any proceeds from a Capital Call or the exercise of any remedies under any Collateral Documents, receive or be entitled to receive payment of a portion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due to it under this Credit Agreement which constitutes a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees then due to such Lender under this Credit Agreement than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest and fees due with respect to any Obligations to such Lender under this Credit Agreement, then such Lender or the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, as the case may be, shall purchase participations in the Obligations under this Credit Agreement held by such other Lenders so that all such recoveries of principal, interest and fees with respect to this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the Obligations thereunder held by the Lenders shall be pro rata according to each Lender’s Commitment (determined as of the date thereof and regardless of any change in any Lender’s Commitment caused by such Lender’s receipt of a proportionately greater or lesser payment hereunder). Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to coordinate and implement the sharing of collateral contemplated by this Section 12.3 prior to the distribution of proceeds from Capital Calls or proceeds from the exercise of remedies under the Collateral Documents prior to making any distributions of such proceeds to each Lender or the Administrative Agent, in their respective capacity as the Lenders.

12.4

Waiver. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall be in addition to all other rights provided by Applicable Law. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, nor consent to departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand. Subject to the terms of this Credit Agreement (including Section 12.1), the Administrative Agent acting on behalf of all Lenders, and the Credit Parties may from time to time enter into agreements amending or changing any

119

provision of this Credit Agreement or the rights of the Lenders or the Credit Parties hereunder, or may grant waivers or consents to a departure from the due performance of the obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent of the Administrative Agent being effective to bind all the Lenders, except as provided in Section 12.1. A waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion.

12.5	Payment of Expenses; Indemnity.

(a)

Cost and Expenses. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay promptly and in all events within thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, including the Administrative Agent’s special counsel, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP and Carey Olsen), in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications, addition of Investors, amendments to any Credit Party’s Constituent Document, joinder of Borrowers, or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated);

(ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 12.5, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b)

Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, and the Letter of Credit Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnitee for, any and all losses, claims (including any Environmental Claims), damages (other than consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages arising directly as a result of the actions of such Indemnitee), liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) (limited to one counsel for the Administrative Agent and each other Indemnitee and one local counsel in any applicable jurisdiction), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrowers or any other Credit Party), other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby

120

(including the Credit Facility), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Letter of Credit Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary, (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, or

(v) any claim (including any Environmental Claims), investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) and the prosecution and defense thereof, arising out of or in any way connected with the Loans, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including reasonable attorneys and consultant’s fees, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, attorneys and attorneys-in fact or (y) result from a claim brought by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof against an Indemnitee for breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Credit Party or such Subsidiary has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 12.5(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c)

Reimbursement by the Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 12.5(a) or Section 12.5(b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Principal Obligations at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Letter of Credit Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such capacity.

(d)

Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the parties hereto shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as

121

a result of, this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, that nothing in this Section 12.5(d) shall relieve any Credit Party of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party. No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct by any Indemnitee.

(e)	Payments. All amounts due under this Section 12.5 shall be payable at the Required Payment Time after demand therefor.

Any Credit Party may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

12.11

Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a)

Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrowers nor any other Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.11(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.11(d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 12.11(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

(b)

Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that, in each case, any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)	Minimum Amounts.

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

(B)

in any case not described in Section 12.11(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding hereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of such “Trade Date”) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given their consent ten (10) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrowers in a written notice

125

to the Administrative Agent received prior to such tenth (10th) Business Day.

(ii)	Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

(iii)

Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except for any assignment pursuant to Section 12.11(b)(i)(B) and, in addition:

(A)	the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or

(y) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; provided, that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless they shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B)	the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment or an Affiliate of such Lender; and

(C)	the consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

(iv)

Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The Assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire if requested by the Administrative Agent.

(v)	No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Credit Party or any Credit Party’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates or

(B)	to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi)	No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.

(vii)

Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment

126

shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the Assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested, but not funded by, the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable Assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the Assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Credit Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(viii)

Consequences of Assignment. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.11(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 4 and Section 12.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.11(d).

(ix)

Trade Allocations. In connection with any assignment, the assignor and assignee may agree in their discretion as to the amount, if any, of the assignor’s Maximum Trade Allocation assigned to the assignee, and there is no obligation for the Maximum Trade Allocation to be assigned in proportion to the Commitments assigned.

127

(c)

Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each Lender Joinder Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender (but only to the extent of entries in the Register that are applicable to such Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 12.11(c) shall be construed to require that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations and any other related regulations or successor provisions or regulations.

(d)

Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 12.5(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver or modification described in Section 12.1 that directly affects such Participant and could not be effected by a vote of the Required Lenders. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements of Section 4.1(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.1(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.11(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.9 as if it were an Assignee under Section 12.11(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.1 and 4.5, with respect to such participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from

128

a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 4.9(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.3 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender.

(e)

Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letters of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. This Section 12.11(e) shall be construed to require that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations and any other related regulations or successor provisions or regulations.

(f)

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

(g)

Addition of Lenders. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, at the request of the Borrowers, a new lender may join the Credit Facility as a Lender by delivering a Lender Joinder Agreement to the Administrative Agent, and such new Lender shall assume all rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that:

(i)	the Commitment of the new Lender shall be in addition to the Commitment of the existing Lenders in effect on the date of such new Lender’s entry into the Credit Facility and the Maximum Commitment shall be increased in a corresponding amount;

129

(ii)	the Commitment of the new Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, or such lesser amount agreed to by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent;

(iii)

such new Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 4.1(f); and

(iv)

the parties shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Lender Joinder Agreement, any amendment hereto determined necessary or appropriate by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Lender Joinder Agreement, the Borrowers shall execute such new Notes as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may request, and the new Lender shall deliver payment of a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent, which amount the Administrative Agent may waive in its sole discretion.

(h)	Disclosure of Information. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 12.17.

12.12

Defaulting Lenders.

(a)	Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i)	Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Credit Agreement shall be excluded as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii)

Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.2 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Letter of Credit Issuer; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 4.10; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Potential Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan or funded participation in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Credit Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the

130

Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and funded participations under this Credit Agreement and (B) Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Credit Agreement, in accordance with Section 4.10; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Letter of Credit Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; seventh, so long as no Potential Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (2) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or funded participations in Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Letter of Credit Liability are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitments without giving effect to Section 12.12(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.12(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)

Certain Fees.

(A)

Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive interest and Letter of Credit fees for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans funded by it, and (2) its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.10.

(B)	Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees pursuant to Section 2.14 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters

131

of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.10.

(C)

With respect to any Letter of Credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrowers shall (1) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in the Letter of Credit Liability that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)

Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in the Letter of Credit Liability shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Principal Obligations of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Subject to Section 12.23, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non- Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)

Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.10.

(b)

Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments (without giving effect to Section 12.12(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,

132

further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)	New Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

12.13

All Powers Coupled with Interest. All powers of attorney and other authorizations granted to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and any Persons designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to any provisions of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied, any of the Commitments remain in effect or the Credit Facility has not been terminated.

12.14

Headings. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Credit Agreement.

12.15

Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties herein shall survive delivery of the Notes, the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit.

12.16

Full Recourse. The payment and performance of the Obligations shall be fully recourse to the Borrowers and the Guarantors and their properties and assets. Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Obligations shall not be recourse to the General Partners or any partners or shareholders thereof and the Lenders shall not have the right to pursue any claim or action against the General Partners or any partners thereof except for any claim or action for actual damages of the Agents or Lenders as a result of breach by the General Partner of its obligations under the Loan Documents or any fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful misappropriation of proceeds from the Credit Facility on the part of the General Partners, in which event there shall be full recourse against such Person.

12.17

Availability of Records; Confidentiality. (a) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that this Credit Agreement, all Loan Documents, Borrowing Base Certificates, and all other documents, certificates, opinions, letters of credit, reports, and other material information of every nature or description, and all transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder (collectively, “Transaction Information”) are confidential; provided that, it is acknowledged and agreed that the Administrative Agent may provide to the Lenders, and that the Administrative Agent and each Lender may provide to any Affiliate of a Lender or Participant or Assignee or proposed Participant or Assignee and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, auditors, counsel, rating agencies and agents or any other Person as deemed necessary or appropriate in any Lender’s reasonable judgment, provided such party is advised of the confidential nature of such information, Transaction Information (including originals or copies of this Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents), and may communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by or on behalf of any Borrower Party or received by the Administrative Agent

133

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto (and each of their respective employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to any and all other person, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. The agreements in this Section 12.17 shall survive the termination of the Commitments, payment of all of the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein for a period of two years following such termination.

12.18

In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Credit Agreement shall control; provided that any provision of the Collateral Documents which imposes additional burdens on any Credit Party or further restricts the rights of any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates or gives the Administrative Agent or Lenders additional rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with this Credit Agreement and shall be given full force and effect.

12.22

Keepwell. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, while any Obligations are outstanding with respect to a transaction under a Lender Hedge Agreement, each Keepwell Provider hereby jointly and severally absolutely and unconditionally undertakes, for the benefit of each Supported Counterparty and the holder(s) of such Obligations, to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time to enable each Supported Counterparty to pay such Obligations with respect to such transaction and to pay such funds to the holder of such Obligations upon the demand of either the Supported Counterparty or such holder. The Credit Parties agree that this Section 12.22 constitutes a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of the Supported Counterparty for purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

12.23

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

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

135

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

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

(ii)

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

(iii)

the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

12.24

Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a)

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

13.

GUARANTY.

13.1

Guaranty of Payment. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each Secured Party and their respective successors and permitted assigns the prompt payment of the Obligations of the Fund Borrowers or any Qualified Borrower in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) and the timely performance of all other obligations by the Borrowers under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (such guaranty by the Guarantors, the “Guaranty”). This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection and is a continuing irrevocable guaranty and shall apply to all of the Obligations of the Borrowers whenever arising. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the extent the obligations of the Guarantors shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under Applicable Law (including, without limitation, Debtor Relief Laws).

13.2

Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (other than a defense of payment or performance). Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty may be enforced by any Secured Party without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having recourse to the Notes or any other of the Loan Documents or any collateral, if any, hereafter securing the Obligations or otherwise and the Guarantors hereby waive the right to require the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Lenders to make demand on or proceed against any Borrower Party or any other Person (including a co-guarantor) or to require the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Lenders to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. The Guarantors further agree that nothing contained herein shall prevent any Secured Party from suing on the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents or foreclosing its or their, as applicable, security interest in or Lien on any Collateral, if any, securing the Obligations or from exercising any other rights available to it or them, as applicable, under this Credit Agreement, the Notes, any other of the Loan Documents, or any other instrument of security, if any, and the exercise of any of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder; it being the purpose and intent of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Neither the Guarantors’ obligations under this Guaranty nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release, increase or limitation of the liability of any Credit Party or by reason of the bankruptcy, insolvency or analogous procedure of any Credit Party. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension accrual or increase of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party on this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty. The Obligations, and any part of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty. All dealings between the

137

Credit Parties, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty.

This Credit Agreement and the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than payment or performance in full of the Obligations (other than any Obligations in respect of any Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h)), including, without limitation, the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not the Administrative Agent shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (A) any failure to assert or enforce or agreement not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy with respect to the Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any guaranty of or other security for the payment of the Obligations, (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including without limitation provisions relating to Events of Default) of this Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any guaranty or other security for the Obligations, (C) to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any of the Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect, (D) the application of payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness other than the Obligations, even though the Administrative Agent might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Obligations, (E) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any of the Collateral, (F) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which the Borrowers may allege or assert against the Administrative Agent in respect of the Obligations, including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury, and (G) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors as an obligor in respect of the Obligations.

13.3

Modifications. Each Guarantor agrees that: (a) all or any part of the Collateral now or hereafter held for the Obligations, if any, may be exchanged, compromised or surrendered from time to time; (b) none of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have any obligation to protect, perfect, secure or insure any such security interests, liens or encumbrances now or hereafter held, if any, for the Obligations; (c) the time or place of payment of the Obligations may be changed or extended, in whole or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and may be renewed or accelerated, in whole or in part; (d) the Borrowers, the Guarantors and any other party liable for payment under the Loan Documents may be granted indulgences generally; (e) any of the provisions of the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, this Credit Agreement may be modified, amended or waived; (f) any party (including any co- guarantor) liable for the payment thereof may be granted indulgences or be released; and (g) any deposit balance for the credit of the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any other party liable for the payment of the Obligations or liable upon any security therefor may be released, in whole or in part, at, before or after the stated, extended or accelerated maturity of the Obligations, all without notice to or further assent by the Guarantors, which shall remain bound thereon, notwithstanding any such exchange, compromise, surrender, extension, renewal, acceleration, modification, indulgence or release.

138

13.4

Waiver of Rights. Each Guarantor expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law: (a) notice of acceptance of the Guaranty by the Lenders and of all extensions of credit to any Credit Party by the Lenders; (b) presentment and demand for payment or performance of any of the Obligations; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of default (except as specifically required in this Credit Agreement) with respect to the Obligations or with respect to any security therefor; (d) notice of the Lenders obtaining, amending, substituting for, releasing, waiving or modifying any security interest, lien or encumbrance, if any, hereafter securing the Obligations, or the Lenders subordinating, compromising, discharging or releasing such security interests, liens or encumbrances, if any; (e) all other notices, demands, presentments, protests or any agreement or instrument related to this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Obligations to which the Guarantors might otherwise be entitled; (f) any right to require the Administrative Agent as a condition of payment or performance by the Guarantors, to (A) proceed against the Borrowers, any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person, (B) proceed against or exhaust any other security held from the Borrowers, any guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person, (C) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account, securities account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Person, or (D) pursue any other remedy in the power of the Administrative Agent whatsoever; (g) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Borrowers including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Borrowers from any cause other than payment in full of the Obligations; (h) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (i) any defense based upon the Administrative Agent’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Obligations; (j) (A) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Credit Agreement and any legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder, (B) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Guarantors’ liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (C) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (D) promptness, diligence and any requirement that the Administrative Agent protect, secure, perfect or insure any other security interest or Lien or any property subject thereto; and (k) to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by Applicable Law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Credit Agreement (other than a defense of payment or performance).

13.5

Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 13 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization, any analogous procedure or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify each Secured Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees of outside counsel) incurred by such Person in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

139

13.6

Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between a Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable) notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing such Obligation from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or such Obligation being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such Obligation (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that its obligations hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and that the Secured Parties may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof.

13.7

Subrogation. Each Guarantor agrees that, until the indefeasible payment of the Obligations (other than (i) contingent obligations for which no claim has yet been made, (ii) Obligations in respect of any Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Collateral Amount and (iii) any Obligations in respect of any Lender Hedge Agreement that have been cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.16(h)) in full in cash, it will not exercise any right of reimbursement, subrogation, indemnification, contribution, offset, remedy (direct or indirect) or other claims against any other Credit Party arising by contract or operation of law or equity in connection with any payment made or required to be made by the Guarantors under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents now or hereafter. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification the Guarantors may have against any other Credit Party or against any Collateral or other collateral or security, and any rights of contribution the Guarantor may have against any other Credit Party, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights the Administrative Agent may have against such Credit Party and to all right, title and interest the Administrative Agent may have in any such other collateral.

13.8

Inducement. The Lenders have been induced to make the Loans and issue Letters of Credit to the Borrowers in part based upon the assurances by the Guarantors that the Guarantors desire that the Obligations of the Guarantors under the Loan Documents be honored and enforced as separate obligations of the Guarantors, should Administrative Agent and the Lenders desire to do so.

13.9

Combined Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantors shall be liable to the Lenders for all representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and indemnities under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Guaranty Obligation, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may at their option enforce the entire amount of the Guaranty Obligation against the Guarantors.

13.10

Borrower Information. Each Guarantor confirms and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disclose or discuss with the Guarantors its assessment of the financial condition of the Borrowers. The Guarantors have adequate means to obtain information from the Borrowers on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Borrowers and its ability to perform its obligations under this Credit Agreement and any other

140

Loan Document, and the Guarantors assume the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Borrowers and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or condition of the Borrowers now known or hereafter known by the Administrative Agent. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to have the Collateral or other collateral or security securing the Obligations marshaled.

1311

Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Section 13 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by the Guarantors in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring motions and/or actions under New York CPLR Section 3213.
