of the 15th day of
each month and on the last day of each month at all times during which the
Aggregate Availability equals or exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the Total
Aggregate Commitments in effect at such time, and (ii) weekly on the last
Business Day of each week at all times during which the Aggregate Availability
is less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Total Aggregate Commitments in effect
at such time, in
either case by reference to the Borrowing Base Report delivered by the Borrower
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(g). The
Borrowing Base shall be subject to adjustment based upon the results of a field
audit pursuant to Section 6.10(b). The
Borrowing Base shall be equal to the sum of (A) 95% of Eligible U.S.
Government Accounts Receivable; plus (B) 90% of
Eligible Accounts Receivable (other than Eligible U.S. Government Accounts
Receivable) from Preferred Eligible Account Obligors; plus (C) 85% of

from 85% to 80%.
(b) Additional
Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dollar amount
of the Borrowing Base comprised of (i) Eligible Refinery Hydrocarbon
Inventory set forth in clause (a)(D) above
and (ii) Eligible In-Transit Crude Oil set forth in clause (a)(H) above
shall not, in the aggregate, exceed 80% of the Borrowing Base. For
purposes of clarity, it is understood that the term "Borrowing Base" as
used in the preceding sentence means the Borrowing Base as calculated pursuant
to Section 2.14(a),
even if the Borrowing Base as so calculated is greater than the Aggregate
Commitments (provided, that, it is hereby
noted that nothing in this Section 2.14(b)
is intended to alter Section 2.01,
which provides that the Outstanding Amount of outstanding Loans plus the

severally from any and all

demands, damages, debts, agreements, covenants, suits, contracts,
obligations, liabilities,
accounts, offsets, rights,
actions, and causes of action of any nature
whatsoever occurring prior
to the date hereof,

whether arising at law or
in equity, presently possessed, whether known or unknown, whether

accrued, whether absolute
or contingent, foreseen or
unforeseen, and whether or

AMENDMENT TO REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

(b) Releasor agrees not to xxx any of Lender
Group or in any way assist
any other person or entity
in suing Lender Group with respect to any claim released
herein. The
Release Provision may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to,
and may be used as the
basis for an injunction
against, any action, suit, or other proceeding which may be
instituted, prosecuted, or
attempted in breach of the release contained herein.
(c) Releasor acknowledges, warrants, and
represents to Lender Group that:
(i) Releasor
has read and understands the effect of the Release
Provision. Releasor has had the assistance of independent counsel of
its own choice, or has had the opportunity to retain such independent counsel,
in reviewing, discussing, and considering all the terms of the Release
Provision; and if counsel was retained, counsel for Releasor has read and
considered the Release Provision and advised Releasor to execute the
same. Before execution of this Amendment, Releasor has had adequate
opportunity to make whatever investigation or inquiry it may deem necessary or
desirable in connection with the subject matter of the Release
Provision.
(ii) Releasor
is not acting in reliance on any representation, understanding, or agreement not
expressly set forth herein. Releasor acknowledges that Lender Group
has not made any representation with respect to the Release Provision except as
expressly set forth herein.
(iii) Releasor
has executed this Amendment and the Release Provision thereof as its free and
voluntary act, without any duress, coercion, or undue influence exerted by or on
behalf of any person.
(iv) Releasor
is the sole owner of the claims released by the Release Provision, and Releasor
has not heretofore conveyed or assigned any interest in any such claims to any
other person or entity.
(d) Releasor understands that the Release
Provision was a material consideration in the agreement of
the Administrative Agent
and each Lender to enter
into this Amendment.
(e) It is the express intent of Releasor
that the release and discharge set forth in the Release Provision be
construed as broadly as possible in favor of Lender Group so as to foreclose
forever the assertion by Releasor of any claims released hereby against Lender
Group.
(f) If any term, provision, covenant, or
condition of the Release Provision is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remainder of the
provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
