Limited Consent The Subject Borrower has informed the Banks and the Agent that it may issue on or after the date hereof, on behalf of the Subject Series, one or more Revolving Demand Notes in favor of Bank of America, N.A. or other loan agreement and note(s) that may succeed such note(s) in an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000,000 (collectively, the “Bank of America Instrument(s)”) and to incur Debt in the form of loans thereunder (the issuance of the Bank of America Instruments and the incurrence of such Debt thereunder, the “Proposed Loans”). The Subject Borrower has requested that the Agents and the Banks consent to the Proposed Loans, and the Agent and the Banks do hereby consent to the Proposed Loans; provided that: (a) the Proposed Loans shall be unsecured by any assets of the Subject Series and shall be in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $3,000,000,000 at any time outstanding to the Subject Borrower and all other funds or other entities entitled to borrow thereunder, (b) the Proposed Loans shall be outstanding with respect to the Subject Borrower solely for the period from the date upon which the Subject Borrower shall notify the Operations Agent of any initial borrowing by such Subject Borrower under the Bank of America Instrument through December 17, 2008 (each, a “Specified Period”), (c) the Subject Borrower shall not have any outstanding Loans under the Credit Agreement during the Specified Period with respect to such Subject Borrower and such Subject Series; and (d) during the Specified Period for the Subject Borrower and such Subject Series and thereafter until the repayment in full of all Debt and other obligations owing by such Subject Borrower under the Bank of America Instruments, the Banks shall have no obligation or Commitment to make any Loans to such Subject Borrower on behalf of such Subject Series under the Credit Agreement. The above consent shall not be construed, however, as a waiver of any other provisions of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to permit any Borrower to take any other action which is prohibited by the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except as expressly stated herein, neither the execution of this Amendment nor the failure of any Agent or any Bank to exercise any right or remedy constitutes a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy under the Credit Agreement. Except as specifically waived hereby, each of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. Nothing contained herein shall in any way prejudice, impair or effect any rights or remedies of any Agent or any Bank under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
