Section 4.Repayment. The entire principal amount of a Term Loan outstanding shall mature and become due and payable, and shall be repaid by the Borrower, in a single installment on such Term Loan’s Term Loan Maturity Date.

Section 5.Prepayments Permitted. The Borrower may prepay a Term Loan in whole or in part, on the Interest Payment Date specified in the relevant Term Loan Note, provided that (i) the Borrower shall have given the Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such prepayment, which notice shall be irrevocable, and shall obligate the Borrower to make such prepayment on the date indicated in such notice; (ii) such prepayment will only be made in connection with a new loan to replace such prepaid amount and (iii) such prepayment would not result in the Borrower breaching its minimum requirements under 12 C.F.R. § 252.162, unless the Borrower has obtained the permission of the FRB for such prepayment. To the extent any permitted prepayments shall be made hereunder, such prepayments shall be applied (i) first, to any outstanding fees, costs or expenses, (ii) second, to any accrued but unpaid interest, and (iii) third, to principal payments coming due in the inverse order of maturity. The Borrower shall at the time of each prepayment pay all accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid and the Lender's costs, expenses and losses incurred by reason of such prepayment, as provided in Section 8 of the Agreement. Notwithstanding (i), (ii) or (iii) the above, in the event the minimum requirements under 12 C.F.R. § 252.162 are decreased following the date of the Agreement or Note or there is a decrease in the Borrower’s risk weighted assets, Borrower may prepay any resulting excess indebtedness on any Interest Payment Date without penalty and upon Notice to Lender.
Section 6. | Conversion. |
(a) The parties acknowledge that the FRB may issue a Conversion Order pursuant to 12 C.F.R. 252.163 that would result in the conversion of any then outstanding Term Loans, in whole or in part, to equity.
(b) If a Conversion Order is issued by the FRB with respect to the Borrower, then an Automatic Conversion with respect to each Term Loan shall occur immediately, subject to the terms of this Section 6 (such date, the “Conversion Date”).

(d) Effective upon, and following, the Conversion Date, the principal amount of each Term Loan shall be reduced by the Converted Amount. Any amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Converted Amount shall be reduced to zero.
(e) The number of Conversion Shares to be issued to the Lender on the Conversion Date in respect of a Term Loan shall equal the lesser of:
(i) | the quotient of the Converted Amount with respect to such Term Loan divided by the Conversion Price, rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole number of Conversion Shares; and |
(ii) | the product of (x) the quotient of the outstanding principal amount of such Term Loan divided by the amount of Total Internal TLAC |
8
and (y) the total number of authorized but unissued Common Stock available for issue free from preemptive or other preferential rights.
Fractions of Conversion Shares shall not be issued following an Automatic Conversion and no cash payment shall be made in lieu thereof.
(f) If the number of Conversion Shares issued by the Borrower to the Lender on the Conversion Date is determined pursuant to Section 6(e)(ii), the Borrower shall use its best efforts to have shareholders of the Borrower authorize the issuance of a number of additional shares of Common Stock (“Additional Conversion Shares”) equal to the difference between the number of Conversion Shares produced by the equation in Section 6(e)(i) and the number of Conversion Shares produced by the equation in Section 6(e)(ii) and shall issue such Additional Conversion Shares to the Lender as soon as reasonably practicable.
(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Conversion Price may be adjusted by mutual agreement of the parties.
(h) Solely for purposes of calculating the Converted Amount and the number of Conversion Shares pursuant to this Section 6, if any Term Loan is issued in a currency other than USD, amounts in respect of the Term Loan in such currency shall be determined by conversion into USD at the prevailing spot rate as of the date of the Conversion Order.

(a) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any consolidation or merger of the Borrower with any other corporation or successive consolidations or mergers in which the Borrower or its successor or successors shall be a party or parties, or shall prevent any sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of the property of the Borrower as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other corporation authorized to acquire and operate the same; provided, however (and the Borrower hereby covenants and agrees) that any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance shall be upon the condition that: (i) immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale
13
or conveyance the corporation (whether the Borrower or such other corporation) formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger, or the corporation to which such sale or conveyance shall have been made, shall not be in Default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement or any Term Loan Note to be observed or performed by the Borrower; and (ii) the corporation formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (unless the Borrower), or the corporation to which such sale or conveyance shall have been made, shall be organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on, each Term Loan Note and the other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, and upon the assumption by the successor corporation of the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants in this Agreement and each Term Loan Note to be performed or observed by the Borrower, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Borrower with the same effect as if it had been named in this Agreement and each Term Loan Note as the Borrower and thereafter the predecessor corporation shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants in this Agreement and each Term Loan Note and may be liquidated and dissolved.
(b) The Borrower shall submit to the Lender such information respecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower as the Lender may from time to time reasonably request.
(c) The Borrower will: (i) obtain promptly at any time and from time to time and will maintain such licenses, consents, registrations and authorizations as may be required under Applicable Law to enable the Borrower to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each Term Loan Note and will promptly furnish the Lender with such evidence thereof as the Lender may request from time to time; (ii) preserve and maintain its national banking association existence, preserve and maintain in good repair, working order and condition all properties required for the conduct of its business and comply in all material respects with all Applicable Law (including Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Terrorism Laws, ERISA and Environmental Laws); and (iii) maintain insurance with responsible insurance companies against at least such risks and in at least such amounts as are customarily maintained by similar businesses, or as may be required by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Lender.
(d) The Borrower agrees that each Term Loan, this Agreement and each Term Loan Note will at all times constitute the direct, binding and enforceable obligations of the Borrower.
(e) Immediately upon becoming aware of the existence of any condition or event which constitutes a Default hereunder or which could have a Materially Adverse Effect on the Borrower, this Agreement or any Term Loan Note, the Borrower will provide written notice to the Lender specifying the nature and period of existence thereof and the action the Borrower is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
(f) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of any Term Loan or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Person, (i) for the purpose of financing or facilitating any activities, business, or transactions of or with any Sanction Person or in any Sanctioned Country; (ii) in any other manner that would result in the Borrower or the Lender being in violation of any applicable Sanctions, Anti-Terrorism Laws
14
or Anti-Money Laundering Laws; or (iii) in furtherance of an offer, payment or giving of money or anything else of value to any Person or any entity in violation of Anti-Corruption Laws.
(g) (i) the Borrower shall submit to the Lender, as soon as available, within one hundred twenty days (120) days following the close of each fiscal year of the Borrower, a copy of financial statements of the Borrower for such annual period as part of the Borrower’s SEC Form 10-K Annual Report. (ii) The Borrower shall submit to the Lender such other information respecting the Borrower, or any Subsidiary of the Borrower as the Lender may from time to time reasonably request.
(h) While any Term Loan remains outstanding hereunder, the Borrower shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance, free from preemptive or other preferential rights, sufficient shares of Common Stock to enable an Automatic Conversion to be satisfied in full. The Conversion Shares issued following an Automatic Conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable as a result of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loan being reduced by the Converted Amount and shall in all respects rank pari passu with the fully paid shares of Common Stock in issue on the Conversion Date, except in any such case for any right excluded by mandatory provisions of applicable law, and except that the Conversion Shares so issued shall not rank for (or, as the case may be, the relevant holder or holders of such Term Loan shall not be entitled to receive) any rights, distributions or payments, the entitlement to which falls prior to the Conversion Date.
Section 13.Event of Default. In the case of an Event of Default occurring and continuing, the Lender may declare all amounts of principal outstanding under each then outstanding Term Loan and Term Loan Note to be forthwith due and payable, together with accrued interest and any and all other amounts payable or owing hereunder, whereupon the same shall become forthwith due and payable, without further demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest or other notice whatsoever, all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower.
Section 14.Creditor’s Rights. The Borrower agrees that, with respect to any Term Loan, the Lender shall have the rights of a general unsecured creditor to enforce the Borrower's obligations to the fullest extent permitted by law, and shall have a superior right to shareholders to share in the assets of the Borrower in the event that the Borrower is dissolved or liquidated, provided that the Lender shall have no such rights with respect to the Converted Amount of any Term Loan or with respect to any Term Loan that has been converted in full.
Section 15.Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any Applicable Law, any change therein or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any government, governmental agency or authority, court, tribunal, central bank or other comparable body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by the Lender with any interpretation, request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such government, governmental agency or authority, court, tribunal, central bank or other comparable body shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Lender to maintain a Term Loan, then the Lender shall so notify the Borrower and such Term Loan shall become due and payable immediately upon the Borrower's receipt of such notice (or on such earlier date as may be required by such Applicable Law, interpretation, guideline, request or directive).
15
Section 16.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles. The Borrower irrevocably agrees that any Credit Agreement Related Claim may be brought in any Federal or New York State Court located in the City of New York and, by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to the jurisdiction of each of the aforesaid courts in personam, generally and unconditionally, with respect to any such action or proceedings for itself and in respect of its property, assets and revenues. The Borrower hereby also irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Borrower further irrevocably consents to service of process out of said courts by mailing a copy thereof, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to itself, and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all claim of error by reason of such service in any legal action or proceeding brought in accordance herewith.

The Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that the Lender shall not be liable for, and the Borrower waives and agrees not to seek any special, indirect or consequential damages arising out of any claim related to this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or any advance. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER EACH HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING TO WHICH THEY ARE BOTH PARTIES INVOLVING ANY CREDIT AGREEMENT RELATED CLAIM.
Section 17. | Miscellaneous. |
(a) The Borrower shall, on demand, pay or reimburse the Lender for all fees, costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of legal counsel and other experts employed or retained by the Lender) incurred, and all payments made, and indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against all losses suffered, by the Lender in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of (A) this Agreement and any Term Loan Note and (B) whether or not executed, any waiver, amendment or consent under or to this Agreement or any Term Loan Note, (ii) consulting with respect to any matter in any way arising out of, related to, or connected with, this Agreement or any Term Loan Note including (A) the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement by the Lender of any of its rights under or related to this Agreement, or any Term Loan Note or (B) the performance by the Lender of any of its obligations under or related to this Agreement or any Term Loan Note, (iii) protecting, preserving, exercising or enforcing any of the rights of the Lender under or related to this Agreement or any Term Loan Note, (iv) any Credit Agreement Related Claim (whether asserted by the Lender or the Borrower or any other Person and whether asserted before or after the relevant Term Loan Maturity Date), and the prosecution or defense thereof, or (v) any governmental investigation arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or the relationship established hereunder, except that the foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to (1) any such fees, costs
16
or expenses incurred, payments made, or losses suffered in connection with a Conversion under Section 6 or (2) any loss suffered by the Lender to the extent such loss is determined by a judgment of a court referred to in the second sentence of Section 16 hereof that is binding on the Borrower and the Lender, final and not subject to review on appeal, to be the result of acts or omissions on the part of the Lender constituting (x) willful misconduct or (y) gross negligence.
(b) Any notice or communication required to be delivered under this Agreement, or any agreement or instrument required to be delivered hereunder (the “Notices”) shall be in writing and shall be sent by registered or certified U.S. mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested) by a reliable hand‑delivery or overnight courier service, by email (in a .pdf or similar file), or by telecopier, to be confirmed immediately by sending the original documentation by registered or certified U.S. mail or by a reliable hand‑delivery or overnight courier service or by email. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Notices may be given by telephone if confirmed in writing within twenty‑four (24) hours by sending a written version thereof by a reliable hand‑delivery or overnight courier service. In the event of a discrepancy between any telephonic Notice and any written confirmation thereof, such written confirmation shall be deemed effective notice except to the extent that the Lender has acted in reliance on such telephonic Notice. All Notices shall be delivered or otherwise conveyed to the parties at their respective addresses and telephone and telecopier numbers as follows: (i) if to the Borrower, at MUFG Americas Holdings Corporation, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Mr. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, Telephone:(000)-000-0000, Email: xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx or Mr. Xxxx Judge, Telephone: (000) 000-0000, Email: xxxx.xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx and (ii) if to the Lender, at MUFG Bank, Ltd., at 0-0, Xxxxxxxxxx 0-xxxxx Xxxxxxx-xx, Xxxxx 100-8388, Japan, Attention: Xx.

(c) No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or any other instrument or agreement required hereunder, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto, and then in each such event such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall, of itself, entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(d) The terms and provisions of this Agreement and each Term Loan Note shall be binding upon, and the benefits thereof shall inure to, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not assign any interest in this Agreement, any Term Loan Note, any Term Loan or any of the Borrower's rights, duties or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Lender may assign, pledge or otherwise transfer any or all of its interests, rights, and/or obligations in, or arising under this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or any Term Loan and may grant or assign to any person any participation interest in this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or any Term Loan, with consent from the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that no such consent is required (i) if an Event of Default exists and is continuing; or (ii) in the case of an assignment to

(e) No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to the Lender upon any breach or default of the Borrower under this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of the Lender, nor shall it be considered to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; and no waiver by the Lender of any single breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore and thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on the part of the Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any Term Loan Note or any waiver on the part of the Lender of any provision or condition of this Agreement or any Term Loan Note must be in writing specifically set forth. No remedy herein conferred upon the Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every such remedy either under this Agreement, any Term Loan Note or by law or otherwise afforded to the Lender, shall be cumulative and not alternative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.
(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition of the Lender's rights of banker's lien.
(g) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
