This Agreement shall not be altered, modified, or amended without the prior written consent of the parties hereto.

11. Extensions, Increases and Modifications. Issuer shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or replace any Credit hereunder or any Bank Guarantee.

(a)

Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Applicant agrees that Issuer and Aval Provider and their respective branches, affiliates and correspondents shall not be liable or responsible in any respect for, and Applicant’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall not be affected by, (a) the use which may be made of any Credit or Bank Guarantee or for any act of or omissions of the beneficiaries under any Credit or Bank Guarantee; (b) the validity, sufficiency, or genuineness of any instructions, oral or written, or any documents which Issuer has determined in good faith to comply on their face with the terms of the relevant Credit or Bank Guarantee, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent, or forged; (c) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages or advices from Applicant or the beneficiaries, however sent and whether or not in code or cipher; (d) Issuer’s refusal to pay or honor Drafts drawn under any Credit (or Aval Provider’s refusal to pay or honor draft requests under any Bank Guarantee) because of any applicable law, decree or edict of any Governmental Authority now or hereafter in force; (e) the identity or authority of any signer or the form, accuracy, genuineness, falsification or legal effect of any draft, certificate or other document appearing on its face (i) substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of a Credit or Bank Guarantee, (ii) to be signed or presented by or issued to any successor of the beneficiary or any other Person in whose name a Credit or Bank Guarantee requires or authorizes that any draft, certificate or other document be signed, presented or issued, including any administrator, executor, personal representative, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, liquidator, receiver, or successor by merger or consolidation, or any other Person purporting to act as the representative of or in place of any of the foregoing, or (iii) to have been signed, presented or issued after a change of name of the beneficiary, (f) any requirement stated in a Credit or Bank Guarantee that any draft, certificate or other document be presented at a particular hour or place and any

discrepancies that do not reduce the value of the beneficiary’s performance to Applicant in any transaction underlying any Credit or Bank Guarantee, (g) Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s acceptance as a “draft” of any written or electronic demand or other request for payment under any Credit or Bank Guarantee, even if such demand or other request is not in the form of a negotiable instrument, (h) the effectiveness or suitability of any Credit or Bank Guarantee for Applicant’s purpose, (i) any consequential or special damages, or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any foreign currency, services or goods or other property covered by any Credit or Bank Guarantee, (j) Issuer’s assertion or waiver of application of any UCP or ISP (in each case, as defined below) article primarily benefiting bank issuers, (k) Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s honor of a previously dishonored presentation under any Credit or Bank Guarantee, whether pursuant to court order, to settle or compromise any claim that it wrongfully dishonored or otherwise, and Issuer and Aval Provider shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if it had initially honored said presentation plus reimbursement of any interest paid by it, (l) Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s disregard of any non-documentary conditions stated in any Credit or Bank Guarantee and (m) Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s payment to any nominated bank (as such term is defined in the UCP or nominated person (as such term is defined in the ISP) (in either case as designated or permitted by the terms of any Credit or Bank Guarantee) claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws, customs or practice of the place where it is located, except to the extent that any such item, action or omission in each of (a) through (m) above is found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a final and non-appealable judgment) to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Issuer, Aval Provider or their respective branches, affiliates and correspondents. None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder or Applicant’s reimbursement obligations hereunder except to the extent that any of the foregoing is found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a final and non-appealable judgment) to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Issuer, Aval Provider or their respective branches, affiliates and correspondents. Issuer, Aval Provider and their respective branches, affiliates and correspondents will not be regarded as the drafter of any Credit or Bank Guarantee regardless of any assistance that Issuer may, in Issuer’s discretion, provide to Applicant in preparing the text of any Credit or Bank Guarantee or amendments thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, Issuer and Aval provider are authorized (but not obligated) to accept and rely on instructions received by facsimile transmission or e-mail that Issuer or Aval Provider believes in good faith to have been given by a Person authorized to give instructions on Applicant’s behalf. Issuer and Aval provider shall incur no liability to Applicant or any other Person as a result of any act or omission on Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s

part in accordance with instructions on which Issuer or Aval Provider is authorized to rely, nor for any failure or refusal on Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s part to accept instructions by facsimile transmission or e-mail that are not confirmed or authenticated to Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s satisfaction.

(b)

Applicant acknowledges that Issuer’s rights and obligations under a Credit and Aval Provider’s rights and obligations under a Bank Guarantee are independent of the existence, performance or nonperformance of any contract or arrangement underlying a Credit or Bank Guarantee, including contracts or arrangements between Issuer and Applicant and between Applicant and the beneficiary of a Credit or Bank Guarantee. Issuer and Aval Provider shall have no duty to notify Applicant of Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s receipt of a demand or a Draft, certificate or other document presented under a Credit or bank Guarantee or of Issuer’s or Aval Provider’s decision to honor such demand. Issuer and Aval Provider may, without incurring any liability to Applicant or impairing Issuer’s entitlement to reimbursement under this Agreement, honor a demand under a Credit or Bank Guarantee despite notice from Applicant of, and without any duty to inquire into, any defense to payment or any adverse claims or other rights against the beneficiary of a Credit or Bank Guarantee or any other Person. Issuer and Aval Provider shall have no duty to request or require the presentation of any document, including any default certificate, not required to be presented under the terms and conditions of a Credit or Bank Guarantee. Issuer and Aval Provider shall have no duty to seek any waiver of discrepancies from Applicant, nor any duty to grant any waiver of discrepancies that Applicant approves or requests.

13. No Violation of Law. Applicant hereby represents and warrants that none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any other Facility Document by Applicant or Parent, nor the request for any issuance of, or amendment to, a Credit or Bank Guarantee will violate or contravene any applicable law or regulation. If Applicant’s obligations under this Agreement should be terminated or revoked by operation of law, Applicant will indemnify and save Issuer harmless from any loss (including reasonable out of pocket expenses) that may be incurred by Issuer in acting hereunder prior to such termination or revocation and the maturity or payment of all outstanding Credits.

14. Practices for Documentary Credits. Each Credit shall be subject to, and the performance by Issuer thereunder shall be governed by, the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce, Publication No. 600 or any subsequent revision thereof adopted from time to time by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “UCP”) unless such Credit is a standby letter of credit that expressly states that it is subject to the International Standby Practices, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590 or

any subsequent amendment thereto or subsequent revision thereof (the “ISP”, and together with the UCP, the “ICC Rules”). Issuer’s privileges, rights and remedies under such ICC Rules shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, Issuer’s privileges, rights and remedies expressly provided for herein. The UCP and the ISP shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of general banking usage with respect to the subject matter thereof.

Furthermore, Applicant agrees that for matters not addressed by the chosen ICC Rule, each Credit shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States Federal laws. If, at Applicant’s request, a Credit expressly chooses a state or country law other than New York State law and United States Federal law or is silent with respect to the choice of an ICC Rule or a governing law, Issuer shall not be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss resulting from any action or inaction taken by Issuer if such action or inaction is or would be justified under an ICC Rule, New York law, applicable United States Federal law or the law governing such Credit.

15. Obligations Absolute. Applicant’s Obligations under this Agreement are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid (or performed, as the case may be) strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including the following circumstances: (a) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Applicant may have at any time against Issuer, Aval Provider or any Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Credit, any Bank Guarantee or any unrelated transaction, (b) any draft, statement, certificate or any other document presented under any Credit or Bank Guarantee proving to be forged, fraudulent, incorrect, insufficient or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever, (c) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, a Credit, a Bank Guarantee or any other agreement, application, amendment, guaranty, document, or instrument relating thereto, (d) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of or in any other term of all or any of Applicant’s Obligations hereunder or the obligations of any Person that guarantees or otherwise provides support for any of Applicant’s Obligations hereunder, (e) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral or release or amendment or waiver of or consent to depart from the terms of any guarantee or security agreement, for all or any of Applicant’s Obligations hereunder, (f) the issuance of a Credit (or any amendment thereto) or Bank Guarantee (or any amendment thereto) in a form other than substantially as requested by Applicant, unless Issuer receives written notice from Applicant of such error within three (3) Business Days after Applicant shall have received a copy of such Credit (or amendment thereto) or Bank Guarantee (or amendment thereto), (g) Issuer’s decision not to issue an amendment to a Credit or request an amendment to a Bank Guarantee as requested by Applicant, (h) payment by Issuer under a Credit or Aval Provider under a Bank Guarantee against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms and conditions of a Creditor Bank Guarantee (as applicable) unless Issuer receives written notice from Applicant of such discrepancy within three (3) Business Days following Applicant’s receipt of such draft or other document, and (i) any action or inaction taken or suffered by Issuer, Aval Provider or any of their respective affiliates or

correspondents in connection with a Credit or Bank Guarantee or any relevant draft, certificate or other document, if taken in Good Faith (as defined in Article 5 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code) and in conformity with applicable New York, United States or non-United States laws, regulations or letter of credit customs and practice.
