"2.12 Letter of Credit. (a) (i) Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions hereof and of Applicable Law, the Lender agrees, upon the
request of the Borrower, to issue Letters of Credit (and to extend Letters
of Credit previously issued hereunder) payable in Dollars from time to time
after the Effective Date and prior to the Commitment Termination Date,
provided, however, that (A) the Borrower shall not request, and the Lender
shall not issue, any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, the
sum of the then current L/C Exposure, plus the aggregate principal amount
of all Loans then outstanding would exceed the Commitment then in effect
and (B) the Borrower shall not request, and the Lender shall not issue (or
extend), any Letter of Credit having an expiration date (x) later than the
tenth day prior to the Commitment Termination Date or (y) more than one
year after its date of issuance.
(ii) Each Letter of Credit may, at the option of the Lender, provide that
the Lender may (but shall not be required to) pay all or any part of the
maximum amount which may at any time be available for drawing thereunder to
the beneficiary thereof upon the occurrence or continuation of an Event of
Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, provided that,
if payment is not then due to the beneficiary, the Lender shall deposit the
funds in question in a segregated account with the Lender to secure payment
to the beneficiary and any funds so deposited shall be paid to the
beneficiary of the Letter of Credit if conditions to such payment are
satisfied or returned to the Lender (or, if all Obligations shall have been
paid in full in cash, to the Borrower) if no payment to the beneficiary has
been made and the final date available for drawings under the Letter of
Credit has passed. Each payment or deposit of funds by the Lender as
provided in this paragraph shall be treated for all purposes of this Loan
Agreement as a drawing duly honored by the Lender under the related Letter
of Credit.
(b) Whenever the Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, it
shall deliver to the Lender a written notice no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York
City time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of
issuance. That notice shall specify (i) the proposed date of issuance (which
shall be a Business Day), (ii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit, (iii)
the expiration date of the Letter of Credit and (iv) the name and address of the
beneficiary. Such notice shall be accompanied by a brief description of the
underlying transaction and upon request of the Lender, the Borrower shall
provide additional details regarding the underlying transaction. Concurrently
with the giving of written notice of a request for the issuance of a Letter of
Credit, the Borrower shall provide a precise description of the documents and
the verbatim text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such
Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary prior to the expiration
date of the Letter of Credit, would require the Lender to make payment under the
Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the Lender, in its reasonable
discretion, may require customary changes in any such documents and certificates
to be presented by the beneficiary.
(c) The acceptance and payment of drafts under any Letter of Credit shall
be made in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and the Uniform
Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 500, as adopted or amended from time to time. The Lender shall
be entitled to honor any drafts and accept any documents presented to it by the
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Letter
of Credit and believed by the Lender in good faith to be genuine. The Lender
shall not have any duty to inquire as to the accuracy or authenticity of any
draft or other drawing documents which may be presented to it, but shall be
responsible only to determine in accordance with customary commercial practices
that the documents which are required to be presented before payment or
acceptance of a draft under any Letter of Credit have been delivered and that
they comply on their face with the requirements of that Letter of Credit.
(d) The Borrower is absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably obligated
to reimburse all amounts drawn under each Letter of Credit. If any draft is
presented under a Letter of Credit, the payment of which is required to be made
at any time on or before the Commitment Termination Date, then payment by the
Lender of such draft shall constitute a Loan hereunder with an intitial Interest
Period of one month and interest shall accrue from the date the Lender makes
payment on such draft under such Letter of Credit. If any draft is presented
under a Letter of Credit, the payment of which is required to be made after the
Commitment Termination Date or at a time when an Event of Default or Default
shall have occurred and then be continuing, then the Borrower shall immediately
pay to the Lender, in immediately available funds, the full amount of such draft
together with interest thereon at a rate per annum of 2% in excess of the Base
Rate from the date on which the Lender makes such payment of such draft until
the date it receives full reimbursement for such payment from the Borrower. The
Borrower further agrees that the Lender may reimburse itself for such drawing
from the balance in any other account of the Borrowers maintained with the
Lender or any of its Affiliates.
(e) The Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts to the Lender with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder:
(i) with respect to the issuance, confirmation, amendment or transfer of
each Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and
processing charges in accordance with the Lender's standard schedule for
such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, confirmation,
amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be, together with any
additional chargers imposed any confirming or advising bank; and
(ii) a commission payable quarterly in advance (commencing on the date of
issuance of any Letter of Credit and continuing so long as such Letter of
Credit or any draft drawn thereunder remains outstanding) computed at a
rate per annum of 0.45% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit; and
(f) If by reason of (i) any change in applicable law after the Effective
Date, or in the interpretation or administration thereof (including, without
limitation, any request, guideline or policy not having the force of law) by any
Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation
thereof, or (ii) compliance by the Lender with any direction, request or
requirement (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the Effective
Date by any Governmental Authority or monetary authority, including, without
limitation, any change whether or not proposed or published prior to the
Effective Date and any modifications to Regulation D occurring after the
Effective Date:
(A) the Lender shall be subject to any tax, levy, impost, duty, fee,
charge, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to any Letter of
Credit (other than withholding tax imposed by the United States of America or
any other tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, charge, deduction or withholding (1)
that is measured with respect to the overall net income of the Lender , and that
is imposed by the United States of America, or by the jurisdiction in which the
Lender is incorporated, or the Lender has its principal office or a presence
which is not otherwise connected with, or required by, this transaction (or any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or (2) that is
imposed solely by reason of the Lender failing to make a declaration of, or
otherwise to establish, non-residence or to make any other claim for exemption,
or otherwise to comply with any certification, identification, information,
documentation or reporting requirements prescribed under the laws of the
relevant jurisdiction, in those cases where the Lender may properly make the
declaration or claim or so establish non-residence or otherwise comply), or to
any variation thereof or to any penalty with respect to the maintenance or
fulfillment of its obligations under this Section 2.12, whether directly or by
such being imposed on or suffered by the Lender;
(B) the basis of taxation of any fee or amount payable hereunder with
respect to any Letter of Credit or any participation therein shall be changed;
(C) any reserve, deposit or similar requirement is or shall be applicable,
imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by the Lender; or
(D) there shall be imposed on the Lender any other condition regarding this
Section 2.12, any Letter of Credit or any participation therein;
and the result of the foregoing is to directly or indirectly increase the
cost to the Lender of issuing, making or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of
purchasing or maintaining any participation therein, or to reduce the amount
receivable in respect thereof by the Lender, then and in any such case the
Lender may, at any time, notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly
pay the Lender upon its demand such amounts as the Lender may specify to be
necessary to compensate it for such additional cost or reduced receipt. The
determination by the Lender of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.12 as
set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable
detail shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding
on all of the parties hereto.
(g) If at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, any Letters of Credit shall remain outstanding, then the Lender may
require the Borrower to deliver to it Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to the
full amount of the L/C Exposure or to furnish other security acceptable to the
Lender. Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be
applied to reimburse the Lender for the amount of any drawings honored under
Letters of Credit; provided, however, that if prior to the Maturity Date, (i) no
Default or Event of Default is then continuing, then the Lender shall return all
of such collateral relating to such deposit to the Borrower if requested by it
or (ii) Letters of Credit shall expire or be returned by the beneficiary so that
the amount of the Cash Equivalents delivered to the Lender hereunder shall
exceed the then current L/C Exposure, then such excess shall first be applied to
pay any Obligations then due under this Loan Agreement and the remainder shall
be returned to the Borrower.
(h) Notwithstanding the termination of the Commitments and the payment of
the Loans, the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.12 shall remain
in full force and effect until the Lender shall have been irrevocably released
from its obligations with regard to any and all Letters of Credit."

of the Required Amount plus the principal amount of the Loans outstanding
plus any L/C Exposure together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon
