The Applicable Margin shall be determined by Administrative Agent from time to time, based on the ratio of Total Outstanding Indebtedness to Capitalization Value as set forth in the certificate most recently delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 6.09(3). Any adjustment to the Applicable Margin under this clause (a) shall be effective as of the first day of the calendar month immediately following the month during which Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent the applicable certificate pursuant to Section 6.09(3). At such time or times as the Applicable Margin is determined under this clause (a), if Borrower fails to deliver a certificate within the applicable time period required pursuant to such Section and such failure continues for three days following notice of such failure from Administrative Agent to Borrower, then the Applicable Margin shall equal the percentages corresponding to Level 5 from the date of such notice until the first day of the calendar month immediately following the month that the required certificate pursuant to Section 6.09(3) is delivered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the period from the Closing Date through but excluding the date on which Administrative Agent first determines the Applicable Margin for Loans as set forth above, the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 1.

The Applicable Margin for purposes of this clause (b) shall be determined based on the Level corresponding to the lower of the highest two Credit Ratings; provided that if the ~~higher~~highest two Credit Ratings are from S&P and Xxxxx’x, then the Applicable Margin for purposes of this clause (b) shall be determined based on the higher of such two Credit Ratings. During any period for which Xxxxxxxx has received a Credit Rating from only one Rating Agency, the Applicable Margin for purposes of this clause (b) shall be determined based on such Credit Rating so long as such Credit Rating is from either S&P or Xxxxx’x. During any period during the Investment Grade Pricing Period that Borrower has (ai) no Credit Rating from any Rating Agency or (bii) received a Credit Rating from only one Rating Agency that is neither S&P nor Xxxxx’x, the Applicable Margin for purposes of this clause (b) shall be determined based on Level 5.

For purposes of the foregoing, (i) the Sustainability Margin Adjustment shall be determined as of the first day of the first month immediately following receipt by Administrative Agent of a Pricing Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 1.08(f) based upon the KPI 1 (Renewable Energy Procurement) and KPI 2 (Green Certification) for the applicable Reference Year set forth in such Pricing Certificate and the calculations of the Sustainability Margin Adjustment, therein (such day, the “Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date”) and (ii) each change in the Applicable Margin resulting from a Pricing Certificate (or the non-delivery or delivery of an incomplete Pricing Certificate) shall be effective during the period commencing on and including the applicable Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date and ending on the date immediately preceding the next such Sustainability Pricing Adjustment Date (or, in the case of non-delivery or delivery of an incomplete Pricing Certificate, the last day such Pricing Certificate could have been delivered pursuant to the terms of Section 1.08(f)).

(b)            For the avoidance of doubt, only one Pricing Certificate may be delivered in respect of any Reference Year. It is further understood and agreed that the Term SOFR Spread and Daily SOFR Spread and the Base Rate Spread will never be reduced by more than 0.02% in the aggregate pursuant to the Sustainability Margin Adjustment during any calendar year. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to the Applicable Margin by reference to the KPI Metric Targets in any year shall not be cumulative year-over-year. Each applicable adjustment shall only apply until the date on which the next adjustment is due to take place.

(c)            It is hereby understood and agreed that if no such Pricing Certificate is delivered, or any Pricing Certificate shall be incomplete and fail to include the KPI 1 (Renewable Energy Procurement) or the KPI 2 (Green Certification) for the applicable Reference Year, within the period set forth in Section 1.08(f), the Sustainability Margin Adjustment will be made to the Applicable Margin commencing on the last day such Pricing Certificate could have been delivered pursuant to the terms of Section 1.08(f).

after Xxxxxxxx has received written notice of, or has agreed in writing that there was, a Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy, an amount equal to the excess of (1) the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over (2) the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. The Borrower shall deliver written notice of any Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge thereof, which written notice shall describe such Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy in reasonable detail (and which description shall be shared with each Bank).

It is understood and agreed that any Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default or otherwise result in the failure of any condition precedent to any advance or ~~the issuance of any Letter of Credit~~; provided, that, Borrower complies with the terms of this Section 1.08(d) with respect to such Pricing Certificate Inaccuracy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless such amounts shall be due upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, (a) any additional amounts required to be paid pursuant to the immediate preceding paragraph shall not be due and payable until a written demand is made for such payment by Administrative Agent in accordance with such paragraph, (b) any nonpayment of such additional amounts prior to or concurrently with such demand for payment by Administrative Agent shall not constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise) and (c) none of such additional amounts shall be deemed overdue prior to such a demand or shall accrue interest at the Default Rate pursuant to Section 2.07 prior to such a demand.

(e)            Each party hereto hereby agrees that Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for (or liability in respect of) reviewing, auditing or otherwise evaluating any calculation by Borrower of any Sustainability Margin Adjustment (or any of the data or computations that are part of or related to any such calculation) set forth in any Pricing Certificate (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry).

(f)            As soon as available and in any event within 180 days following the end of each calendar year (commencing with the calendar year ending December 31, 2022), Borrower may deliver a Pricing Certificate to Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent shall promptly provide a copy to each Bank) for the most recently-ended Reference Year; provided, that, for any Reference Year Borrower may elect not to deliver a Pricing Certificate, and such election shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default (but such failure to so deliver a Pricing Certificate by the end of such 180-day period shall result in the Sustainability Margin Adjustment being applied as set forth in Section 1.08(c)).

ARTICLE II

However, the failure of any Bank to make any advance of each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation to make any advance of its Loans specified hereby to be made on such date.

SECTION 2.02. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.03. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.04. Advances, Generally. The amount of each advance hereunder shall, subject to Section 2.13, be at least Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) (unless less than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) is available for disbursement pursuant to the terms hereof at the time of any advance, in which case the amount of such advance shall be equal to such remaining availability) and in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

Each advance shall be subject, in addition to the limitations and conditions applicable to advances of the Loans generally, to Administrative Agent’s receipt, in accordance with the timing requirements of Section 2.05 with respect to requests for advances, a Notice of Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05. Procedures for Advances. In the case of advances of Term Loans, Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing for each advance, stating the date of the Loan, the amount of the Loan, the type of Loan and, in the case of Term SOFR Loans, the initial Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loans, no later than (a) in the case of advances of Base Rate Loans and Daily SOFR Loans, 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date which is the proposed date of such Base Rate Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, and (b) in the case of Term SOFR Loans, 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date which is three (3) U.S. Government Securities Banking Days prior to the date such Term SOFR is to be made.

the account of Xxxxxxxx. The amount so received by Administrative Agent shall, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, be made available to Borrower, in immediately available funds, by Administrative Agent to an account designated by Borrower.

Upon notice to Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.14, Borrower may Continue any SOFR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period of the same or different duration in accordance with the limitations provided above.

The parties understand that during a Leverage Pricing Period the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Banks by Borrower (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by Borrower) at the time it was delivered to Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period during a Leverage Pricing Period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, within 5 Banking Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive for a period of one year following the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of Administrative Agent’s or any Bank’s other rights under this Agreement.

Any principal amount not paid when due (when scheduled, at acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate and, with respect to any other Obligation that is not paid when due (when

scheduled, at acceleration or otherwise), shall bear interest thereafter, payable on demand, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.

The interest rate on Base Rate Loans and Daily SOFR Loans shall change when the Base Rate or Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate, as applicable, changes. Interest on Base Rate Loans, Term SOFR Loans and Daily SOFR Loans shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. Interest shall be calculated for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days, except interest on Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable.

Accrued interest shall be due and payable in arrears, (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the first Banking Day of each calendar month, (y) in the case of Term SOFR Loans, at the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, but no less frequently than once every three (3) months determined on the basis of the first (1^st) day of the Interest Period applicable to the Loan in question and (z) in the case of Daily SOFR Loans, on the fifth (5th) U.S. Government Securities Banking Day of each calendar month for the preceding calendar month; provided, however, that interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

Borrower shall, commencing on the Closing Date, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank an unused fee equal to the product, computed on a daily basis, of (x) the unused portion of the Commitments then in effect and (y) the per annum rate of 0.150%, calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed. The accrued unused fee shall be due and payable (i) in arrears on the first Banking Day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on the Closing Date, and upon (ii) the Final Availability Date (as may be accelerated) or earlier termination of the Commitments.

SECTION 2.09. Notes; Due at Maturity. At the request of a Bank, the Term Loans made by such Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by a promissory note of Borrower in the form of EXHIBIT B duly completed and executed by Borrower, in a principal amount equal to such Bank’s Commitment, payable to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office (each such note, as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, extended, severed, assigned, substituted, renewed or restated from time to time, including any substitute note pursuant to Section 3.07 or 12.05, a “Term Loan Note”). A particular Bank’s Term Loan Note is referred to in this Agreement as such Bank’s “Note”; all such Term Loan Notes are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Notes”.

The Term Loans shall mature, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest and Obligations in respect thereof shall be paid in full, on the Maturity Date, or as the same may be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement.

The date, amount, interest rate, type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Bank to Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Bank and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of

Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Bank and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

In connection with a Refinancing Mortgage, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, a mortgage note, payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Banks receiving the benefit of, and which shall be secured by, the applicable Refinancing Mortgage. Such note shall be in such form as shall be requested by Xxxxxxxx, subject to Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval. Each reference in this Agreement to the “Notes” shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such mortgage notes, as the context may require.

Without prepayment premium or penalty but subject to Section 3.05, Borrower may, upon same Banking Day’s notice to Administrative Agent in the case of the Base Rate Loans, upon at least one (1) U.S. Government Securities Banking Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent in the case of Daily SOFR Loans, and at least three (3) U.S. Government Securities Banking Days’ notice to Administrative Agent in the case of Term SOFR Loans, which notice shall have been received not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such applicable date, prepay in whole or in part any of the Term Loans; provided, that (1) any partial prepayment under the foregoing shall be in integral multiples of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and (2) each prepayment under the foregoing shall include, at Administrative Agent’s option, all interest accrued on the amount of principal prepaid to (but excluding) the date of prepayment.

SECTION 2.11. Method of Payment.

Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Borrower shall deliver federal reference number(s) evidencing the applicable wire transfer(s) to Administrative Agent as soon as available thereafter on such day. Administrative Agent will thereafter, on the day of its receipt of each such payment(s), cause to be distributed to each Bank (1) such Bank’s appropriate share (based upon the respective outstanding principal amounts and interest due under the Loans of the Banks) of the payments of principal and interest in like funds for the account of such Bank’s Applicable Lending Office; and (2) fees payable to such Bank by Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Bank within one Banking Day of receipt of such amounts, Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amounts until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes is due on any day other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and other fees, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.12. Elections, Conversions or Continuation of Loans.

Subject to the provisions of Article III and Sections 2.06 and 2.13, Borrower shall have the right to Elect to have all or a portion of any advance of the Term Loans be Term SOFR Loans, to Convert Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans into Term SOFR Loans, to Convert Term SOFR Loans into Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, or to Continue Term SOFR Loans as Term SOFR Loans, at any time or from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give Administrative Agent notice of each such Election, Conversion or Continuation as provided in Section 2.14; and (2) a Term SOFR Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Election, Continuation and Conversion shall be applicable to each Bank’s applicable Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of such Loans. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Banks, may require, by notice to Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Loan may be converted to or continued as a Term SOFR Loan and (ii) unless repaid, each Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.13. Minimum Amounts.

With respect to the Term Loans as a whole, each Election and each Conversion thereof shall be in an amount at least equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and in integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or such lesser amount as shall be available or outstanding, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.14. Certain Notices Regarding Elections, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

Notices by Xxxxxxxx to Administrative Agent of Elections, Conversions and Continuations of Term SOFR Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the number of U.S. Government Securities Banking Days prior to the date of the relevant Election, Conversion or Continuation specified below:

Notice	Number of U.S. Government Securities Banking Days Prior
Conversions into or Continuances as Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans	Same U.S. Government Securities Banking Day
Elections of, Conversions into or Continuations as Term SOFR Loans	Three (3)

Promptly following its receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall so advise the applicable Banks by facsimile. Each such notice of Election shall specify the portion of the amount of the advance that is to be SOFR Loans (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06); each such notice of Conversion shall specify the SOFR Loans or Base Rate Loans to be Converted; and each such notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify the date of Conversion or Continuation (which shall be a U.S. Government Securities Banking Day), the amount thereof (subject to Section 2.13) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06). In the event that

Borrower fails to Elect to have any portion of an advance of the Term Loans be SOFR Loans, the portion of such advance for which a SOFR Loan Election is not made shall constitute Base Rate Loans. Subject to the terms of the last sentence of Section 2.12, in the event that Borrower fails to Continue Term SOFR Loans within the time period and as otherwise provided in this Section, such Term SOFR Loans will be automatically Continued as Term SOFR Loans with an Interest Period of one month on the last day of the then current applicable Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loans.

SECTION 2.15. Payments Generally. If any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 10.05, then Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of Administrative Agent to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.16. Changes of Commitments; Incremental Increases.

(a)            At any time, Borrower shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate any unused Commitments existing as of the date of such termination, in whole or in part, from time to time, provided that: (1) Borrower shall give notice of each such termination to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each of the Banks holding such Commitments) no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date which is three (3) U.S. Government Securities Banking Days prior to the effectiveness of such termination (it being understood that any notice of termination may be conditioned upon the consummation of any financing or acquisition or similar transaction and, to the extent such condition is not satisfied by the effective date specified therein, such notice of termination may be revoked or the effective date specified therein may be delayed); (2) (x) [reserved], (y) the Commitments of each of the Banks must be terminated (and, in the case of a partial termination, on a pro rata basis) simultaneously with those of the other Banks, and (z) [reserved]; and (3) each partial termination of the Commitments in the aggregate shall be in an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

(b)            The Commitments, to the extent terminated pursuant to Section 2.16(a), may not be reinstated.

(c)            Unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, by written notice to Administrative Agent, may request to increase the Commitment or enter into one or more tranches of term loans (each an “Incremental Increase”), in each case by/in an amount not less than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) per request and not more than Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000) in the aggregate (such that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans after any such Incremental Increase shall never exceed Six Hundred Million Dollars ($600,000,000)); provided that (a) any such request shall be accompanied by a certificate from Borrower confirming that the representations and warranties of Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the requested Incremental Increase (except

in those cases where such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date or is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Change” or similar language (which shall be true and correct in all respects as qualified therein) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted hereunder), (b) any Bank which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for an Incremental Increase, at its sole discretion, may elect to provide a portion of such Incremental Increase but shall not have any obligation to provide any portion of such Incremental Increase (and it being agreed and understood that Borrower or the arrangers of such Incremental Increase shall not be required to offer to or solicit from any existing Bank the opportunity to provide a portion of such Incremental Increase), and (c) to the extent that a Bank does not elect, or is not offered, to provide any part of a requested Incremental Increase, the Lead Arrangers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate additional Qualified Institutions willing to hold commitments for the requested Incremental Increase, and Borrower may also identify additional Qualified Institutions willing to hold commitments for the requested Incremental Increase; provided however that Administrative Agent and, in the case of an Incremental Increase in the aggregate Commitments, shall have the right to approve any such additional Qualified Institutions, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event that the Banks or additional Qualified Institutions commit to any such Incremental Increase, the Commitments of the Banks shall be increased (as applicable), the Pro Rata Shares of the Banks shall be adjusted, new Notes shall be issued, Borrower shall make such borrowings and repayments as shall be necessary to effect the reallocation of the Loans so that the Loans are held by the Banks in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to such Incremental Increase, and other changes shall be made to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to reflect the aggregate amount, if any, by which the Banks or additional Qualified Institutions have agreed to increase their respective Commitments or make new Commitments in response to Borrower’s request for an Incremental Increase pursuant to this Section 2.16(c), in each case without the consent of the Banks other than those Banks providing such Incremental Increase. The fees payable by Borrower upon any such Incremental Increase shall be agreed upon by the Lead Arrangers and Borrower at the time of such increase. Any Incremental Increase shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the applicable Loans hereunder. In connection with any Incremental Increase pursuant to this Section 2.16, any Bank becoming a party hereto shall (1) execute such documents and agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (2) in the case of any Bank that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, provide to Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including without limitation, the PATRIOT Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.16(c) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an agreement by any Bank to increase its Commitment hereunder.

SECTION 2.17. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.18. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.19. Funds Transfer Disbursements. Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Banks or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; ILLEGALITY; ETC.

SECTION 3.01. Additional Costs. Borrower shall pay directly to each Bank or other Recipient from time to time on demand such amounts as such Bank or other Recipient may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any increased costs which such Bank or other Recipient determines are attributable to its making or maintaining a Loan, or its obligation to make or maintain a Loan, or its obligation to Convert a Loan hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank or other Recipient hereunder in respect of its Loan(s) or such obligations (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(1)            subjects any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(2)            imposes or, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, liquidity, deposit insurance or assessment, minimum capital, capital ratio or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, ~~such Bank (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the FRB for determining the maximum reserve requirement~~ (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D of the FRB, as amended and in effect from time to time)),or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, such Bank, or any commitment of such Bank (including such Bank’s Commitment hereunder); or

(3)            imposes any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Notes (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Bank becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if such Bank so elects by notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Bank to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, Term SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect.

The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

Determinations and allocations by a Bank for purposes of this Section of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to the first or second paragraph of this Section, on its costs or rate of return of making or maintaining its Loan or portions thereof or on amounts receivable by it in respect of its Loan or portions thereof, and the amounts required to compensate such Bank under

this Section, shall be included in a calculation of such amounts given to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article III to the contrary, Borrower shall only be obligated to pay any amounts due under this Section 3.01 or under Section 3.06 if, and a Bank shall not exercise any right under this Section 3.01 or Sections 3.03, 3.04 or 3.06 unless, the applicable Bank is generally imposing a similar charge on, or otherwise similarly enforcing its agreements with, its other similarly situated borrowers; provided that in no event shall any Bank be required to disclose information of other borrowers. In addition, Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Bank under any such provision for any amounts attributable to any period which is more than 180 days prior to such Bank’s delivery of notice thereof to Borrower (except that if a Regulatory Change is retroactive, then such period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect, provided that such Bank delivered notice thereof to Borrower no later than 180 days after the date on which the Regulatory Change with such retroactive effect was made).

SECTION 3.02. [Reserved].

SECTION 3.03. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan hereunder, to allow Elections or Continuations of a Term SOFR Loan or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, then such Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower thereof and such Bank’s obligation to make or maintain a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, or to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into, a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such time as such Bank may again make and maintain a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan.

SECTION 3.04. Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligations of any Bank to make or maintain a Term SOFR Loan or a Daily SOFR Loan, or to permit an Election of a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, to Continue its Term SOFR Loan, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan or Daily SOFR Loan into a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, are suspended pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.03 (each Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan so affected being herein called an “Affected Loan”), such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be automatically Converted into a Base Rate Loan (or, in the case of an Affected Loan that is a Daily SOFR Loan, the interest rate thereon shall be converted to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans) on the last day of the then current Interest Period for the Affected Loan (or, in the case of a Conversion or conversion resulting from Section 3.03, on such earlier date as such Bank may specify to Borrower).

To the extent that such Bank’s Affected Loan has been so Converted (or the interest rate thereon so converted), all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Bank’s Affected Loan shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loan (or to its Daily SOFR Loan bearing interest at the converted rate) and such Bank shall have no obligation to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan.

SECTION 3.05. Certain Compensation. Other than in connection with a Conversion of an Affected Loan, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable

Bank, upon the request of such Bank through Administrative Agent which request includes a calculation of the amount(s) due, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense which such Bank reasonably determines is attributable to:

(1)            any payment or prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan made by such Bank, or any Conversion of a Term SOFR Loan made by such Bank, in any such case on a date other than the last day of an applicable Interest Period, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise;

(2)            any failure by Borrower for any reason to Convert a Term SOFR Loan or a Base Rate Loan or to Continue a Term SOFR Loan, as the case may be, to be Converted or Continued by such Bank on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice under Section 2.14;

(3)            any failure by Borrower to borrow (or to qualify for a borrowing of) a Term SOFR Loan which would otherwise be made hereunder on the date specified in the relevant Election notice under Section 2.14; or

(4)            any failure by Borrower to prepay a Term SOFR Loan on the date specified in a notice of prepayment.

Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the present value (using as the discount rate an interest rate equal to the rate determined under (2) below) of the excess, if any, of (1) the amount of interest (less the Applicable Margin) which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or Continued (or not Converted, Continued or borrowed) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation (or failure to Convert, Continue or borrow) to the last day of the then-current applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to Convert, Continue, or borrow, to the last day of the applicable Interest Period which would have commenced on the date specified therefor in the relevant notice) at the applicable rate of interest for the Term SOFR Loan provided for herein, over (2) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) based upon the interest rate which such Bank would have bid in the relevant interbank market for Dollar deposits, for amounts comparable to such principal amount and maturities comparable to such period. A determination of any Bank as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 3.06. Capital Adequacy. If any Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, due to any Regulatory Change or the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity ratios or requirements, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of

law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis therefor, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments in respect of the period prior to such termination.

SECTION 3.07. Substitution of Banks. If any Bank (an “Affected Bank”) (i) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay) Additional Costs pursuant to Section 3.01, (ii) is unable to make or maintain a Term SOFR Loan or a Daily SOFR Loan as a result of a condition described in Section 3.03, (iii) has any increased costs as described in Section 3.06, (iv) requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or other amounts to such Bank or any Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 10.13, or (v) becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Bank, Borrower may, at Borrower’s sole expense and effort within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand or notice of the occurrence of an event described above in this Section 3.07 (provided (A) such 90-day limit shall not be applicable for a Defaulting Lender and (B) such 90-day period shall be extended for an additional period of 60 days if Borrower shall have attempted during such 90-day period to secure a Replacement Bank (as defined below) and shall be diligently pursuing such attempt), give written notice (a “Replacement Notice”) to Administrative Agent and to each Bank of Borrower’s intention to replace the Affected Bank with another financial institution (the “Replacement Bank”) designated in such Replacement Notice; provided, that in the case of any assignment resulting from a Bank becoming a Non-Consenting Bank, the Replacement Bank shall have consented to the applicable consent, approval, amendment or waiver; provided, further, that in the case of an Affected Bank that is not a Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Bank, if Borrower has been unable to obtain a Replacement Bank after using its commercially reasonable efforts to do so for a period of sixty (60) days, Borrower shall be permitted to prepay in full such Affected Bank’s Loans and to terminate such Affected Bank’s entire Commitment so long as (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have ocurrred and be continuing at the time of such prepayment or immediately after giving effect thereto, (B) within thirty (30) days after its receipt of Borrower’s request therefor, such Affected Bank shall not have agreed to waive the payment of the Additional Costs, Indemnified Taxes or other amounts in question pursuant to Section 10.13 or the effect of the circumstances described in Section 3.03 or in Section 3.06 and (C) to the extent two or more Affected Banks are so prepaid and their Commitments terminated, such Affected Banks’ aggregate Commitments so terminated shall not exceed 5% of the total Commitments before giving effect to such terminations, and such prepayments shall be made ratably in accordance with such Affected Banks’ respective Pro Rata Shares.

In the event Borrower shall elect to make a prepayment of an Affected Bank to the extent permitted in the final proviso of the preceding paragraph, then, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, Borrower may (notwithstanding the provisions of clause (2) of Section 2.16(a)) terminate

the Affected Bank’s entire Commitments, provided that in connection therewith it pays to the Affected Bank all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Affected Bank’s Loans, together with all other amounts, if any, due from Borrower to the Affected Bank, including all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01, 3.05 or 10.13. After any replacement or termination, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.04 in respect of the period prior to such termination.

In the event Borrower opts to give a Replacement Notice, and if Administrative Agent shall promptly (and in any event, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Replacement Notice), notify Borrower and each Bank in writing that the Replacement Bank is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, then the Affected Bank shall, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, assign its Loans and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Replacement Bank, and the Replacement Bank shall assume all of the Affected Bank’s rights and obligations, pursuant to an agreement, substantially in the form of an Assignment and Assumption, executed by the Affected Bank and the Replacement Bank. In connection with such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall pay to the Affected Bank an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Affected Bank’s Loans plus all interest accrued thereon, plus all other amounts, if any (other than the Additional Costs in question), then due and payable to the Affected Bank; provided, however, that prior to or simultaneously with any such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Bank all amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01, 3.05 and 10.13. Upon the effective date of such assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, and the Affected Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section, Notes shall be issued to the Replacement Bank by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.09. If the Replacement Bank is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent a certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 10.13. Each Replacement Bank shall be deemed to have made the representations contained in, and shall be bound by the provisions of, Section 10.13. After any assignment as provided in this paragraph, an Affected Bank shall remain entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06, 10.13 and 12.04 in respect of the period prior to such assignment. The Affected Bank shall not be required to make any assignment described in this Section if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Affected Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment cease to apply.

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

Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall be reasonably required in connection with and to effectuate the foregoing.

SECTION 3.08. Obligation of Banks to Mitigate. Each Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after such Bank has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an event or the existence of

a condition that would cause such Bank to become an Affected Bank or that would entitle such Bank to receive payments under Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts at the cost and expense of Borrower (i) to make, issue, fund, or maintain the Commitment of such Bank or the affected Loans of such Bank through another lending office of such Bank, or (ii) to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if as a result thereof the circumstances that would cause such Bank to be an Affected Bank would cease to exist or the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid to such Bank pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.06 or 10.13 would be reduced and if, as reasonably determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding, or maintaining of such Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Commitment or Loans or would not be otherwise disadvantageous to the interests of such Bank.

SECTION 3.09. Usury. In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Bank, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless Borrower shall notify the respective Bank in writing that Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that Borrower not pay and the Banks not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by Borrower under applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.07. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by Administrative Agent or any Bank to third parties or for damages incurred by Administrative Agent or any Bank, in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate Administrative Agent or any such Bank for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by Administrative Agent and the Banks in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

SECTION 3.10. Changed Circumstances.

(a)            Circumstances Affecting Benchmark Availability. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period or the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate or (ii) the Required Banks shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Term SOFR or the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of making

or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and to each Bank. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Banks to make Term SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, as applicable, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, as applicable, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Banks) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to (x) Daily SOFR Loans so long as the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate is not the subject of clauses (i) or (ii) above, or (y) Base Rate Loans if the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate is the subject of clauses (i) or (ii) above, in each case, in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into (x) Daily SOFR Loans so long as the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate is not the subject of clauses (i) or (ii) above, or (y) Base Rate Loans if the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate is the subject of clauses (i) or (ii) above, in each case, at the end of the applicable Interest Period, or, in the case of any Daily SOFR Loan, immediately.

ARTICLE X

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; RELATIONS AMONG BANKS

SECTION 10.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities of Administrative Agent. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other Loan Document or required by law, and shall not by reason of this Agreement be a fiduciary or trustee for any Bank except to the extent that Administrative Agent acts as an agent with respect to the receipt or payment of funds (nor shall Administrative Agent have any fiduciary duty to Borrower nor shall any Bank have any fiduciary duty to Borrower or to any other Bank). Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower or any officer, partner or official of Borrower or any other Person contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document or instrument referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value, legality, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein, for the perfection or priority of any Lien securing the Guaranteed Obligations or for any failure by Borrower to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of Administrative Agent, its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Related Parties”): (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; and (c) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Borrower shall pay any fee agreed to by Boxxxxxx xnd Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent’s services hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent agrees with the Banks that Administrative Agent shall perform its obligations under this Agreement in good faith according to the same standard of care as that customarily exercised by it in administering its own loans of a similar type.

SECTION 10.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telefax or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Bank as the holder of the Loan made by it for all purposes hereof and shall not be required to deal with any Person who has acquired a participation in any Loan or participation from a Bank. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Banks, and such instructions of the Required Banks and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Banks and any other holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks, or where applicable, all of the Banks.

SECTION 10.03. Defaults. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.01(1)) unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or Borrower specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” In the event that Administrative Agent receives a Notice of Default, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks. Administrative Agent, following consultation with the Banks, shall (subject to Section 9.02, Section 10.07 and Section 12.02) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default which is continuing as shall be directed by the Required Banks; provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Banks; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not (subject to Section 9.02) send a notice of Default, Event of Default or acceleration to Borrower without the approval of the Required Banks. In no event shall Administrative Agent be required to take any such action which it determines to be contrary to law. If any Bank (excluding the Bank which is also serving as Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to Administrative Agent such a “Notice of Default”; provided, a Bank’s failure to provide such a “Notice of Default” to Administrative Agent shall not result in any liability of such Bank to any other party to any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.04. Rights of Agent as a Bank. With respect to its Commitment and the Loan provided by it, each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank hereunder shall

have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as such Agent, and the term any “Bank” or “Banks” shall include each Person serving as an Agent in its capacity as a Bank. Each Person serving as an Agent and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Bank) accept deposits from, lend money to (on a secured or unsecured basis), and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, Borrower (and any Affiliates of Borrower) as if it were not acting as such Agent. The Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such business activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower and its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to the Banks.

SECTION 10.05. Indemnification of Agents. Each Bank agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.04 or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document, but without limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.04 or such provisions), for its Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 12.04) or under the applicable provisions of any other Loan Document or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents or instruments; provided that no Bank shall be liable for (1) any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) of the party to be indemnified, (2) any loss of principal or interest with respect to the Loan of any Bank serving as an Agent or (3) any loss suffered by such Agent in connection with a swap or other interest rate hedging arrangement entered into with Borrower, and that no action taken in accordance with the written directions of the Required Banks (or all of the Banks, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.06. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Banks. Each of the Banks expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Agent nor any of its respective Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such Bank and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by any Agent to any Bank. Each of the Banks acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Bank or counsel to Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements of General Partner, Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of General Partner, Boxxxxxx, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Banks also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any

other Bank or counsel to Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. No Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. Each of the Banks acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Bank.

SECTION 10.07. Failure of Administrative Agent to Act. Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall have received further assurances of the indemnification obligations of the Banks under Section 10.05 in respect of any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. If any indemnity furnished by the Banks to Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the action indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

SECTION 10.08. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a successor; provided, however, that so long as no Default under Section 9.01(1) or Section 9.01(5) or Event of Default exists, such appointment shall be subject to Borrower’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Bank and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Removal Closing Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Closing Date. Administrative Agent max xesign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and Boxxxxxx. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default under Section 9.01(1) or Section 9.01(5) or Event of Default exists, be subject to Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Bank and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment,

within 30 days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Bank, if any Bank shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a Qualified Institution; provided that if Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and the Banks that no Bank has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice. As of the Removal Closing Date or the effectiveness of such resignation, as applicable, (1) Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Bank directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such the Banks so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of Administrative Agent as if each such Bank were itself Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.09. Amendments Concerning Agency Function. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Agent shall be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which affects its duties, rights, and/or function hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

SECTION 10.10. Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the failure of any Bank to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Bank on account of the failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.11. Transfer of Agency Function. Without the consent of Borrower or any Bank, Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer its functions as Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever located in the United States, provided that Administrative Agent shall promptly notify in writing Borrower and the Banks thereof.

SECTION 10.12. Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank or Borrower (either one as appropriate being the “Payor”) prior to the date on which such Bank is to make payment hereunder to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan or Borrower is to make payment to Administrative Agent, as the case may be (either such payment being a “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor will not make the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made in full to Administrative Agent on such date, and Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall

not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date. If and to the extent the Payor shall not have in fact so made the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount made available to it together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among the Banks for three (3) Banking Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.

SECTION 10.13. Taxes.

(a)            Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower 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 the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower 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 10.13) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)            Payment of Other Taxes by Xxxxxxxx. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c)            Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 10.13, Borrower shall deliver to 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 Administrative Agent.

(d)            Indemnification by Xxxxxxxx. Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 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) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket 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 Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)            Indemnification by Xxxxx. Each Bank shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for

such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.05(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by 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 delivered to any Bank by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Bank from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)            Status of Banks. (i) Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank 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 Section 10.13(f)(ii)(A), (B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in the applicable Bank's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

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

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

(B)            any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. ~~Federal~~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 W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. ~~Federal~~federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(2)            in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

(4)            to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, an executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)            any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed ~~originals~~copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. ~~Federal~~federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)            if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. ~~Federal~~federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if

such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Bank agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 10.13 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)            Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Bank or have any obligation to pay to any Bank, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Bank. 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 10.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.13), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 10.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable 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 request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (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 paragraph (g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such 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 paragraph 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, or to apply for or seek a refund of any Taxes on behalf of, any indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)            Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 10.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i)            Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 10.13, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 10.14. Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided:

(a)            [reserved];

(b)            [reserved];

(d)            each borrowing of Term Loans from the Banks under Section 2.01(d) shall be made from the Banks, each payment of the fees under Section 2.08 shall be made for the account of the Banks, and each termination or reduction of the amount of Commitments under Section 2.16(a) shall be applied to the Commitments of the Banks, according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares;

(e)            each payment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans shall be made for the account of the Banks according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided that, subject to Section 12.20, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of Term Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall not be held by the Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect at the time such Term Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Term Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Terms Loans being held by the Banks in accordance with such respective Pro Rata Shares;

(f)            each payment of interest on the Term Loans shall be made for the account of the Banks according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares, as applicable, then due and payable to the Banks; and

(g)            the Conversion and Continuation of the Term Loans (other than Conversions provided for by Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04) shall be made pro rata among the Banks, according to the amounts of their respective Pro Rata Shares.

SECTION 10.15. Sharing of Payments Among Banks. If a Bank shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan made by it through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or by any other means (including direct payment), and such payment results in such Bank receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to had such payment been paid directly to Administrative Agent for disbursement to the Banks, then such Bank shall promptly purchase for cash from the other Banks participations in the Loans made by the other Banks in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable to the end that all of the Banks shall share ratably the benefit of such payment; 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 any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other

100

than to Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). To such end the Banks shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Xxxxxxxx agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation in the Loans made by other Banks may exercise all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Bank to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Bank to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness of Borrower.

SECTION 10.16. Possession of Documents. Each Bank shall keep possession of its own Notes. Administrative Agent shall hold all the other Loan Documents and related documents in its possession and maintain separate records and accounts with respect thereto, and shall permit the Banks and their representatives access at all reasonable times to inspect such Loan Documents, related documents, records and accounts.

SECTION 10.17. Syndication Agent, Documentation Agents and Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents. The Banks serving as Syndication Agent, Documentation Agents or Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents shall have no duties or obligations in such capacities. In addition, in acting as an Agent, no Bank will have any responsibility except as set forth herein and shall in no event be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties. In addition the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents have not assumed and will not assume any advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Xxxxxxxx.

SECTION 10.18. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a)            Each Bank (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, that, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and each Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(iii)            (A) such Bank is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Bank to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, this Agreement and (D) to the best knowledge of such Bank, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, this Agreement; or

(iv)            such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Bank.

(b)            In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Bank or (2) a Bank has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Bank further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger, each Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Bookrunner or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Bank involved in such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

SECTION 10.19. Sustainability Matters. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that neither Administrative Agent nor the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents (a) makes any assurances whether this Agreement or any other Loan Document meets any criteria or expectations of Borrower or any Bank with regard to environmental or social impact and sustainability performance, or whether the characteristics of the KPI 1 (Renewable Energy Procurement) and KPI 2 (Green Certification) (including any environmental, social and sustainability criteria or any computation methodology) meet any industry standards for sustainability-linked credit facilities, or (b) has any responsibility for or liability in respect of reviewing, auditing or otherwise evaluating any calculation by Borrower of the KPI 1 (Renewable Energy Procurement), the KPI 2 (Green Certification), the KPI Metric Targets or any margin or fee adjustment (or any of the data or computations that are part of or related to any such calculation) set out in any Pricing Certificate (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry, when implementing any pricing adjustment).

ARTICLE XI

NATURE OF OBLIGATIONS

SECTION 11.01. Absolute and Unconditional Obligations. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (1) any lack of validity or

102

enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any Specified Derivative Contract, any Specified Cash Management Agreement, any Loan Documents, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (2) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any Loan Documents or any other documents or instruments executed in connection with or related to the Guaranteed Obligations; (3) any exchange or release of any collateral, if any, or of any other Person from all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (4) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower or any other Person in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by any Bank or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral or security or guarantee therefor or right of setoff with respect thereto.

SECTION 11.02. Non-Recourse to Principals and General Partner. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are fully recourse to Borrower and the Guarantors. Unless General Partner becomes a Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.10 and subject to the limitations described below in this Section 11.02, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any other instruments, certificates, documents or agreements executed in connection with the Loans (all of the foregoing, for purposes of this Section, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the “Relevant Documents”), and notwithstanding any applicable law that would make General Partner liable for the debts or obligations of Xxxxxxxx, including as a general partner, no recourse under or upon any Obligation, representation, warranty, promise or other matter whatsoever shall be had against any of the Principals or General Partner, and each Bank expressly waives and releases, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, all right to assert any liability whatsoever under or with respect to the Relevant Documents against, or to satisfy any claim or obligation arising thereunder against, any of the Principals or General Partner or out of any assets of the Principals or General Partner, provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be deemed to (1) release Borrower from any liability pursuant to, or from any of its obligations under, the Relevant Documents, or from liability for its fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions; (2) release General Partner from personal liability arising outside of the terms of this Agreement for its, his or her own fraudulent actions, fraudulent omissions, misappropriation of funds, rents or insurance proceeds, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (3) constitute a waiver of any obligation evidenced or secured by, or contained in, the Relevant Documents or affect in any way the validity or enforceability of the Relevant Documents; or (4) limit the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Banks to proceed against or realize upon any collateral hereafter given for the Loans or any and all of the assets of Borrower (notwithstanding the fact that General Partner has an ownership interest in Borrower and, thereby, an interest in the assets of Borrower) or to name Borrower (or, to the extent that the same are required by applicable law or are determined by a court to be necessary parties in connection with an action or suit against Borrower or any collateral hereafter given for the Loans, General Partner) as a party defendant in, and to enforce against any collateral hereafter given for the Loans and/or assets of Borrower any judgment obtained by Administrative Agent and/or the Banks with respect to, any action or suit under the Relevant Documents so long as no judgment shall be taken (except to the extent taking a judgment is required by applicable law or determined by a court to be

103

necessary to preserve Administrative Agent’s and/or the Banks’ rights against any collateral hereafter given for the Loans or Borrower, but not otherwise) or shall be enforced against General Partner or its assets.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 12.01. Binding Effect of Request for Advance. Xxxxxxxx agrees that, by its acceptance of any advance of proceeds of the Loans under this Agreement, it shall be bound in all respects by the request for advance submitted on its behalf in connection therewith with the same force and effect as if Xxxxxxxx had itself executed and submitted the request for advance and whether or not the request for advance is executed and/or submitted by an authorized person.

SECTION 12.02. Amendments and Waivers.

(a)            Generally. No amendment or material waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor consent to any material departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Banks and, solely for purposes of its acknowledgment thereof, Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party a party thereto), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b)            Additional Bank Consents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall do any of the following:

(i)            forgive or reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees due hereunder or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than a waiver of default interest and changes in calculation of the ratio of Total Outstanding Indebtedness to Capitalization Value that may indirectly affect pricing), in each case, without the written consent of each Bank directly and adversely affected thereby;

(ii)            change the definition of “Final Availability Date” without the written consent of each Bank directly and adversely affected thereby;

(iii)            change the definition of “Maturity Date” or otherwise postpone any date on which a, or forgive any, scheduled payment of principal of the Term Loans, fees payable to any Banks or any other Obligations owing to the Banks (excluding mandatory prepayments, if any), in each case, without the written consent of each Bank directly and adversely affected thereby;

(iv)            [reserved];

(v)            change the definition of Pro Rata Share or change Section 10.14 or 10.15 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Bank directly and adversely affected thereby;

104

(vi)            amend this Section 12.02 without the written consent of each Bank directly and adversely affected thereby;

(vii)            reinstate, increase or decrease the Commitment of any Bank or subject any of the Banks to any additional obligations without the written consent of such Bank (other than pursuant to Section 2.16(c) or Section 3.07 and except for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Banks);

(viii)            waive any default in payment under paragraph (1) of Section 9.01 or any default under paragraph (5) of Section 9.01 with respect to Borrower, any other Loan Party or General Partner, in each case, without the written consent of all of the Banks;

(ix)            release all or substantially all of the Guarantors (other than as provided in Section 6.10) without the written consent of all of the Banks;

(x)            change the definition of Required Banks, make any other modification that reduces the number or percentage of the Banks required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof without the written consent of all of the Banks; or

(xi)            permit the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document except in a transaction permitted (with or without the Required Banks’ consent) pursuant to Section 7.01 without the written consent of all of the Banks; and

provided, that (A) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent or the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents, as applicable, in addition to the Banks required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents, as applicable, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or modify Article X or Section 12.24 hereof and (B) any advance of proceeds of the Loans made prior to or without the fulfillment by Borrower of all of the conditions precedent thereto, whether or not known to Administrative Agent and the Banks, shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement that all conditions, including the non-performed conditions, shall be required with respect to all future advances. No failure on the part of Administrative Agent or any Bank to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. All communications from Administrative Agent to the Banks requesting the Banks’ determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Bank and (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested. Each Bank shall reply promptly, but in any event within fifteen (15) Banking Days (or five (5) Banking Days with respect to any decision to accelerate or stop acceleration of the Loan) after receipt of the request therefor by Administrative Agent (the “Bank Reply Period”). Unless a Bank shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the requested determination, approval, consent or disapproval within the Bank Reply Period, such Bank shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such requested

105

determination, approval, consent or disapproval; provided that this sentence shall not apply to any determination, consent, approval or disapproval regarding any matter requiring the consent of all Banks or all affected Banks under the first proviso of this Section.

(c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if Administrative Agent and Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or an inconsistency between provisions of this Agreement, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely affect the interests of the Banks. Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any of other party to this Agreement. Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such amendment.

(d)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with only the written consent of Administrative Agent and Borrower (a) to provide for the making of any Incremental Increase as contemplated by Section 2.16 and to permit the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Banks in respect of such Incremental Increase in any determination of the Required Banks.

(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time after the date hereof, any Bank shall consent to amend or otherwise modify any provision of the Existing Credit Agreement (or any facility refinancing, replacing, modifying, extending or increasing the revolving credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement) in its capacity as a “Bank” under and as defined therein, and such amended or modified provision shall have a correlative provision under this Agreement (other than any amendment or other modification that is subject to Section 12.02(b)), such Bank shall be deemed to have consented to amend or otherwise modify such correlative provision under this Agreement with effectiveness automatically hereunder concurrently with the effectiveness of such amendment or other modification under the Existing Credit Agreement (or any facility refinancing, replacing, modifying, extending or increasing the revolving credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement) with no further action required by such Bank.

SECTION 12.03. Survival; Termination. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Administrative Agent or any Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Guaranteed Obligations hereunder are outstanding and unpaid. At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) [reserved], (c) none of the Banks is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as hereafter provided in this Section 12.03 and contingent indemnification obligations that have not been asserted) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate. Promptly following such termination, each Bank shall promptly return to Borrower any Note issued to such

106

Bank. The provisions of Sections 3.01, 3.05, 3.06, 10.13, 12.14 and 12.15, the indemnities to which Administrative Agent and the Banks are entitled under Sections 10.05 and 12.04, and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement. Upon Xxxxxxxx’s request, Administrative Agent agrees to deliver to Xxxxxxxx, at Xxxxxxxx’s sole cost and expense, written confirmation of the foregoing termination.

SECTION 12.04. Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)            Xxxxxxxx agrees (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and, solely in connection with the initial closing and syndication of the facilities hereunder, the Bookrunners, for all of its and their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, in respect of any notice given by Borrower under Section 2.16(c), whether or not the requested increase is actually effected), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to Administrative Agent and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent in connection with the use of IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other similar information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents, (b) [reserved], (c) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent, the Bookrunners, the Lead Arrangers and the Banks for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under the Loan Documents, including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of their respective counsel and (d) to the extent not already covered by any of the preceding subsections, to pay or reimburse the fees and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any Bookrunner and any Bank incurred in connection with the representation of Administrative Agent, such Lead Arranger, any Bookrunner or such Bank in any matter relating to or arising out of any bankruptcy or other proceeding of the type described in Section 9.01(5), including, without limitation, (i) any motion for relief from any stay or similar order, (ii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any document relating to the Obligations and (iii) the negotiation and preparation of any debtor in possession financing or any plan of reorganization of Borrower or any other Loan Party, whether proposed by Xxxxxxxx, such Loan Party, the Banks or any other Person, and whether such fees and expenses are incurred prior to, during or after the commencement of such proceeding or the confirmation or conclusion of any such proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the obligation to reimburse Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the Banks for fees and expenses of counsel in connection with the matters described in clauses (a), (c) and (d) above shall be limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the Banks and, if reasonably necessary, a single local counsel for Administrative Agent and the Banks in each relevant jurisdiction and with respect to each relevant specialty, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to the affected Bank similarly situated and (ii) except to the extent otherwise agreed among Borrower, the Lead Arrangers and Administrative Agent, Borrower is not responsible for costs, expenses and charges

107

incurred by the Bank Parties in connection with the administration or syndication of the Loans (other than any administration fee payable to Administrative Agent). Other than to the extent constituting a condition to the Closing Date set forth in Section 4.01, all reimbursement obligations pursuant to this Section 12.04(a) shall be due and payable not later than fifteen (15) Banking Days following receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor.

(b)            Xxxxxxxx agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, the Co-Sustainability Structuring Agents, each Bank, Affiliates of the foregoing, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (each such Person being called an “Indemnified Party”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason of (w) the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower or the use of the proceeds of the Loans, directly or indirectly, by Xxxxxxxx, (x) any claims by brokers due to acts or omissions by Xxxxxxxx, (y) any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) (an “Indemnity Proceeding”) relating to any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of third-party counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings or (z) third party claims or actions against any Bank or Administrative Agent relating to or arising from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters described in this Section 12.04 to the extent arising from (A) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment, (B) a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under the Loan Documents, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment, (C) any dispute solely among Indemnified Parties (except in connection with claims or disputes (1) against Administrative Agent and/or any Bookrunner or any Lead Arranger in their respective capacities relating to whether the conditions to any advance have been satisfied, (2) against Administrative Agent, any Bookrunner and/or any Lead Arranger in their respective capacities with respect to a Defaulting Lender or the determination of whether a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, (3) against Administrative Agent, any Bookrunner and/or any Lead Arranger in their respective capacities as such and (4) directly resulting from any act or omission on the part of General Partner, Borrower, any other Loan Parties or any other Subsidiary), and (D) tax and yield maintenance matters otherwise addressed in Sections 3.01, 3.05, 3.06 and 10.13.

(c)            If and to the extent that the obligations of Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, Xxxxxxxx hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

(d)            The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments.

108

(e)            An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by Xxxxxxxx. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) if Borrower is required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) Borrower has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

SECTION 12.05. Assignment; Participation.

(a)            Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, provided that neither Borrower, General Partner nor any other Loan Party may, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Bank, and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to a Qualified Institution in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of the following subsection (d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of the following subsection (e) (and, subject to the last sentence of the immediately following subsection (b), any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Except as otherwise provided under Section 12.04, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in the following subsection (d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of each of Administrative Agent and the Banks) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)            Assignments by Xxxxx. Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more Qualified Institutions all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)            Minimum Amounts.

(1)            in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an assigning Bank’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in the immediately following clause (2) in the aggregate, or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

109

(2)            in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (1), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default shall exist, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Bank or the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Bank, as applicable, and in each case, without Participants, would be less than $10,000,000 (which minimum amount shall be reduced pro rata as a result of a cancellation or reduction of the aggregate Commitments), then such assigning Bank shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it.

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

(iii)            Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(2) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:

(1)            the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless an Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment; provided that (I) Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Banking Days after having received notice thereof and (II) Borrower can withhold such consent if such assignment shall subject Borrower to any greater obligations under Sections 3.01 or 3.06; provided further that no such consent shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is already a Bank with Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Bank;

(2)            the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Bank with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Bank; and

(3)            [reserved].

(iv)            Assignment and Acceptance; Notes. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $4,500 for each assignment (which fee Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive), and the assignee, if it is not a Bank, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative

Questionnaire. If requested by the transferor Bank or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Bank, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the assignee and such transferor Bank, as appropriate.

(v)            No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Bank 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 (or a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof).

(vii)            Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment 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 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 Borrower and 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 pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent and the Banks hereunder (and interest accrued thereon). 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 Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.05 and 12.04 and the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 Bank having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that

111

does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the following subsection (d).

(c)            Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Xxxxxxxx, shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Xxxxxxxx, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)            Participations. Any Bank may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any Defaulting Lender) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it) in minimum amounts of not less than $5,000,000 prior to an Event of Default, and upon the occurrence and during the continunance of an Event of Default, in any amount; provided that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Bank’s Commitment, (x) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Bank, (y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (z) release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by Section 6.10, in each case, as applicable to that portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations that are subject to the participation. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.06 and 10.13 (subject, in each case, to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 10.13(f) (it being understood that documentation required under Section 10.13(f) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01, 3.06 or 10.13, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Regulatory Change that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Bank that sells a participation agrees, at Xxxxxxxx’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.07 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each

112

Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Bank; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.15 as though it were a Bank. Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Xxxxxxxx, 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 Bank 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, letter 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 Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

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

(f)            No Registration. Each Bank agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxxx and Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

(g)            USA PATRIOT Act Notice; Compliance. In order for Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws, rules and regulations, including without limitation, the PATRIOT Act, prior to any Bank that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, Administrative Agent may request, and such Bank shall provide to Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent to comply with such laws, rules and regulations.

SECTION 12.06. Documentation Satisfactory. All documentation required from or to be submitted on behalf of Borrower in connection with this Agreement and the documents relating hereto shall be subject to the prior approval of, and be satisfactory in form and substance to, Administrative Agent, its counsel and, where specifically provided herein, the Banks. In addition, the persons or parties responsible for the execution and delivery of, and signatories to, all of such documentation, shall be acceptable to, and subject to the approval of, Administrative Agent and its counsel and the Banks.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, all notices or communications to Administrative Agent or any Bank under Article II shall be effective only when actually received. Notices delivered through Electronic Systems, to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph. Failure of a Person designated to get a copy of a notice to receive such copy shall not affect the validity of notice properly given to another Person.

(b)            Notices and other communications to the Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by using Electronic Systems pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and the applicable Bank. Administrative Agent or Borrower 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.

Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

115

(c)            Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto in accordance with this Section 12.07, except that each Bank must only give such notice to Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

(d)            Electronic Systems.

(i)            Xxxxxxxx agrees that Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make Communications (as defined below) available to the Banks by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar Electronic System.

(ii)            Any Electronic System used by Administrative Agent is provided “as is” and “as available.” None of Administrative Agent or Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates and such Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (the “Communications Parties”) warrant the adequacy of such Electronic Systems and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Communications Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System. In no event shall any Communications Party have any liability to the other parties hereto or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower’s or Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through an Electronic System. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by Administrative Agent or any Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System.

(e)            Reliance by Administrative Agent and Xxxxx. Administrative Agent and the Banks shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices and Notices of Borrowing) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each Bank and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Xxxxxxxx. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

SECTION 12.08. Setoff. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to the extent permitted or not expressly prohibited by applicable law, Xxxxxxxx agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, bankers’ lien or counterclaim a Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Required

116

Banks exercised in their sole discretion, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of Borrower at any of such Bank’s offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any amount payable by Borrower to such Bank under this Agreement or such Bank’s Notes, or any other Loan Document, which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower or General Partner), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof; provided that such Bank’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof. Payments by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Banks and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Guaranteed Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

SECTION 12.09. Table of Contents; Headings. Any table of contents and the headings and captions hereunder are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

SECTION 12.10. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are intended to be severable. If for any reason any provision of this Agreement or another Loan Document shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, ~~such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or~~(a) the legality, validity and enforceability ~~thereof~~ ~~in any other jurisdiction or~~of the remaining provisions ~~hereof in any jurisdiction.~~of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

SECTION 12.11. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

(a)            Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Bookrunners and/or the Lead Arrangers, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01 this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received

117

counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b)            Electronic Execution. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in or related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent, waiver, modification, information, notice, certificate, report, statement, disclosure, or authorization to be signed or delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an Electronic Record, and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other parties hereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Banks and any of the Loan Parties, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

SECTION 12.12. Integration. The Loan Documents set forth the entire agreement among the parties hereto relating to the transactions contemplated thereby (except with respect to agreements relating solely to compensation, consideration and the coordinated syndication of the Loan) and supersede any prior oral or written statements or agreements with respect to such transactions.

118

SECTION 12.13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 12.14. Waivers. To the extent permitted or not expressly prohibited by applicable law, in connection with the obligations and liabilities as aforesaid, Borrower hereby waives (1) notice of any actions taken by any Bank Party under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto except to the extent otherwise provided herein; (2) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Obligations, the omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section 12.14, might constitute grounds for relieving Borrower of its obligations hereunder; (3) any requirement that any Bank Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien on any collateral or exhaust any right or take any action against Borrower or any other Person or any collateral; (4) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of the assets of Borrower; and (5) all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under the Bankruptcy Code) or otherwise by reason of payment by Xxxxxxxx, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 12.15. Jurisdiction; Immunities. Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in New York City, Borough of Manhattan, over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document. Borrower, Administrative Agent, and each Bank irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or United States Federal court. Borrower, Administrative Agent, and each Bank irrevocably consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to Borrower, Administrative Agent or each Bank, as the case may be, at the addresses specified herein. Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank further waive any objection to venue in the State of New York and any objection to an action or proceeding in the State of New York on the basis of forum non conveniens. Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank agree that any action or proceeding brought against Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank, as the case may be, shall be brought only in a New York State court sitting in New York City, Borough of Manhattan, or a United States Federal court sitting in New York City, Borough of Manhattan, to the extent permitted or not expressly prohibited by applicable law.

Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

To the extent that Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank have or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank hereby irrevocably waive such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and any other Loan Document.

119

BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BANK WAIVE ANY RIGHT EACH SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE LOAN. IN ADDITION, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO THE NOTES, ANY RIGHT BORROWER MAY HAVE (1) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED OR NOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN (OTHER THAN A COUNTERCLAIM THAT IF NOT BROUGHT IN THE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS COULD NOT BE BROUGHT IN A SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR WOULD BE SUBJECT TO DISMISSAL OR SIMILAR DISPOSITION FOR FAILURE TO HAVE BEEN ASSERTED IN SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS) OR (2) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED OR NOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. NOTHING HEREIN CONTAINED SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE ACTION AGAINST ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED CLAIM.

To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower shall not assert, and Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Bank or any Agent, 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 a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 12.16. [Reserved].

SECTION 12.17. [Reserved].

SECTION 12.18. Intentionally Omitted.

SECTION 12.19. USA PATRIOT Act; Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Administrative Agent and each Bank hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act or any other Anti-Money Laundering Laws, each of them is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Bank to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act or such Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

SECTION 12.20. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Bank is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

120

(a)            Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Xxxxxx’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Banks” and in Section 12.02.

(b)            Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, [reserved]; third, [reserved]; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists other than a Default or Event of Default that will be cured by the application of such funds in accordance with this paragraph), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c)            Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.08 for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(d)            [Reserved].

(e)            Defaulting Lender Cure. If Xxxxxxxx and Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Bank is no longer a Defaulting Lender, 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, that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Banks or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Term Loans to be held by the Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares as if there had been no Banks that were Defaulting Lenders, whereupon such Bank 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 Borrower while that Bank was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, 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 Bank’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(f)            [Reserved].

121

(g)            Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. During any period that a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, by Xxxxxxxx giving written notice thereof to Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Banks, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment and Loans to a Qualified Institution subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.05. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding a Qualified Institution. In addition, any Bank which is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, in its sole discretion, acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and Loans via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.04. In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption and, notwithstanding Section 12.05, shall pay to Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500. The exercise by Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to Administrative Agent or the Banks provided that the foregoing shall not constitute a waiver or release of any claim of Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank against any Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 12.21. Use for Mortgages.

(a)            ~~SECTION 12.21.~~ ~~Use for Mortgages~~General. From time to time, on not less than ten (10) Banking Days’ notice, Borrower may request proceeds of the Term Loans be used to refinance or acquire properties secured by certain secured mortgage Debt of Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries, in which event, a portion of such Term Loans equal to the amount of the advances made hereunder in connection with such refinancing or acquisition, at Borrower’s election, may be secured by an amended and restated mortgage on the property securing the mortgage Debt to be so refinanced or acquired (a “Refinancing Mortgage”) and evidenced by a separate mortgage note executed by Xxxxxxxx and/or one or more Subsidiaries (provided that (i) if Xxxxxxxx shall not execute such mortgage note, Xxxxxxxx shall execute a guaranty of such mortgage note and (ii) it being agreed and understood the execution of, and being obligated under, such a mortgage note and Refinancing Mortgage, shall not cause any Subsidiary to be deemed an Unsecured Indebtedness Subsidiary for purposes of Section 6.10), as more particularly set forth in Section 2.09, provided that no Refinancing Mortgage may encumber a property located in a Special Flood Hazard Area as designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. At least seven (7) Banking Days prior to the recordation of any Refinancing Mortgage, the Administrative Agent shall provide all of the applicable Banks requested to make such refinancing or acquisition Loans with a legal description and special flood hazard determination form for all property proposed to be encumbered thereby. Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent promptly, upon each request, all such information with respect to the property subject to the Refinancing Mortgage as the Administrative Agent (or any Bank through the Administrative Agent) shall reasonably request. Any such Refinancing Mortgage and any other agreement, certifications, opinions and other documents will be (i) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, (ii) consistent in all respects with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) subject to being, and shall be, released or assigned by the Administrative Agent at the request of Borrower (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall not be required to give any representations or warranties with respect to any such release or assignment, including with respect to any aspects of the Debt secured thereby, except that it is the holder thereof and authorized to execute and deliver the same), and the Administrative Agent shall,

122

and is authorized by the Banks to, (A) enter into Refinancing Mortgages on behalf of the Banks and accept any promissory note on their behalf, (B) execute and deliver any release or assignment documents reasonably requested by, and at the expense of, Xxxxxxxx and (C) enter into any of the transactions or arrangements contemplated under this Section 12.21 on behalf of the Banks, and to bind the Banks by the Administrative Agent’s entering into or otherwise becoming bound thereby, and no further consent or approval on the part of any Bank is or will be required in connection with any such actions taken by the Administrative Agent. In addition, in connection with each Refinancing Mortgage, the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of Borrower, will provide subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements and intercreditor and/or subordination agreements with respect to any other Debt secured by the related mortgaged property, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise directed by Xxxxxxxx, any prepayments made by Borrower shall be applied first to any and all Loans outstanding that are not secured by a Refinancing Mortgage, and only to Loans secured by Refinancing Mortgages if there shall be no other Loans outstanding at the time.

(b)            Release and Indemnity. Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall be responsible for any losses, costs or expenses incurred by any Loan Party or Affiliate thereof in connection with the loss of any mortgage recording tax credits pertaining to any Refinancing Mortgage. Furthermore, and without limitation of any of Borrower’s obligations under Section 12.04(b), Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Bank and each other Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the fees and the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnified Party incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith) actually incurred by any Indemnified Party or asserted against any Indemnified Party by any Person (including Borrower or any other Loan Party) in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any of the transactions or arrangements contemplated under this Section 12.21 or any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree, subpoena or other proceeding relating thereto, including, without limitation, any losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses resulting from (i) the failure of any Person to pay any mortgage recording taxes associated with any Refinancing Mortgage and (ii) the assignment of any mortgage note in respect of any Refinancing Mortgage; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Party, be available to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (A) result from a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under the Loan Documents, or the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; (B) constitute special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages); or (C) any dispute solely among Indemnified Parties (except in connection with claims or disputes (1) against the Administrative Agent and/or any Bookrunner or any Lead Arranger in their respective capacities relating to whether the conditions to any advance have been satisfied, (2) against the Administrative Agent, any Bookrunner and/or any Lead Arranger in their respective capacities with respect to a Defaulting Lender or the determination of whether a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, (3) against the Administrative Agent, any Bookrunner and/or any Lead Arranger in their respective

At Borrower’s request from time to time, the Administrative Agent shall accept “bottom-up” guaranties of the Loans from limited partners in Borrower in such amounts and on such terms as Borrower shall request, provided that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably satisfied itself and the Banks with respect to applicable “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including without limitation, the PATRIOT Act and other similar restrictions in respect of any such proposed guarantor. A Person shall not be considered to be a “Guarantor” or a “Loan Party” as a result of providing such a “bottom-up” guaranty.

In addition, Administrative Agent and the Banks may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to Administrative Agent and the Banks in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.

SECTION 12.26. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Specified Derivatives Contracts 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 FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx 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):

In the

126

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.

127

transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 12.27(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above.

(d)            In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Bank that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Bank, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the Administrative Agent’s written notice to such Bank (i) such Bank shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) to the Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Without limitation of its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent may cancel any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Bank and upon such revocation all of the Loans assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Bank without any requirement for payment or other consideration.

(e)            Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 12.27 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making for a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.

(f)            Each party’s obligations under this Section 12.27 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(g)            Nothing in this Section 12.27 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment.
