An Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the Bank, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the Bank.

2.3 Form of Letters of Credit. (a) The Applicant authorizes the Bank to set forth the terms of each Application in the Letter of Credit corresponding to such Application (and in any amendment thereto) in such language as the Bank deems appropriate, with such variations from such terms as the Bank may in its discretion determine to be necessary (which determination shall be conclusive) and not materially inconsistent with such Application. The Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, request the Applicant to review and sign the form of a Letter of Credit prior to issuance thereof, in which case the Applicant shall be deemed to have approved the form of such Letter of Credit. With respect to any other Letter of Credit, the Applicant agrees that such Letter of Credit shall be conclusively presumed to be in proper form unless the Applicant notifies the Bank in writing of any discrepancy in such Letter of Credit within three (3) Business Days of its issuance. Upon receipt of timely notice of any discrepancy in any Letter of Credit, the Bank will endeavor to obtain the consent of the beneficiary and any confirming bank for an appropriate modification to such Letter of Credit; provided that the Bank shall have no liability or responsibility for its failure to obtain such consent.

(b) The Applicant accepts the risk that a Letter of Credit will be interpreted or applied other than as intended by the Applicant to the extent such Letter of Credit (i) permits presentation at a place other than the place of issuance, (ii) permits application of laws other than the governing law of this Agreement as set forth in Section 12.5 of this Agreement, (iii) requires termination or reduction against a presentation made by the Applicant rather than the beneficiary or (iv) fails to incorporate, or permits the application of rules and practices other than, established letter of credit practices and rules.

2.4 Representations and Warranties. The delivery of each Application shall automatically constitute a representation and warranty by the Applicant to the Bank to the effect that on the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a) the representations and warranties of the Applicant set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement and in Section 6 of the Cash Collateral Agreement shall be true and correct as of such requested date as though made on such requested date of issuance, both before and after giving effect to such issuance, and (b) no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing or will result from such issuance.

2.5 Conditions to Effectiveness of this Agreement. The effectiveness of this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Schedule 1 hereto.

2.6 Conditions to Issuance of a Letter of Credit. In addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.5 hereof, the obligation of the Bank to issue each Letter of Credit pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Schedule 2 hereto.

SECTION 3. REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS; RESPONSIBILITIES, ETC.

3.1 Reimbursement of Obligations. The Applicant hereby agrees to reimburse the Bank forthwith upon demand in an amount equal to any payment or disbursement made by the Bank under a Letter of Credit or any time draft issued pursuant thereto, together with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by the Bank from and including the date of payment or disbursement to but not including the date the Bank is reimbursed by the Applicant at a rate equal to the Reference Rate from time to time in effect plus 2% per annum (or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by applicable law). The obligation of the Applicant to reimburse the Bank under this Section 3 for payments and disbursements made by the Bank under a Letter of Credit or any time draft issued pursuant thereto shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) any failure of any Item presented under such Letter of Credit to comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(b) the legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit or of any Item presented thereunder;

(c) any defense based on the identity of the transferee of such Letter of Credit or the sufficiency of the transfer if such Letter of Credit is transferable;

(d) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Applicant may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit, the Bank, BTMU or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transaction;

(e) any Item presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(f) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(g) waiver by the Bank of any requirement that exists for the Bank’s protection and not the protection of the Applicant or any waiver by the Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice the Applicant;

(h) any payment made by the Bank in respect of an Item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if payment after such date is authorized by the ISP, the UCC or the UCP, as applicable; or

(i) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of or by the Bank or any other Person or any other event, circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 3.1, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Applicant’s obligations hereunder;

provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, the Applicant shall not be obligated to reimburse the Bank for any wrongful payment or disbursement made by the Bank under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission constituting gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Bank, as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

3.2 Discrepancies. (a) The Applicant agrees that it will promptly examine any and all instruments and documents delivered to it from time to time in connection with a Letter of Credit, and if the Applicant has any claim of non-compliance with its instructions or of discrepancies or other irregularity, the Applicant will immediately (and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) notify the Bank thereof in writing, and the Applicant shall be deemed to have waived any claim against the Bank unless such notice is given within such time period. Without limiting the foregoing, if the Bank makes any payment or disbursement under a Letter of Credit and the Applicant does not send a notice to the Bank within three (3) Business Days of receipt of notice of such payment or disbursement objecting to such payment or disbursement and specifying in reasonable detail the discrepancy or irregularity which is the basis for such objection, then the Applicant shall be precluded from making any objection to the Bank’s honor of the presentation with respect to which such payment or disbursement was made (but shall not be precluded from asserting any objection to any different presentation under the same or a different Letter of Credit).

(b) The Applicant’s acceptance or retention of any documents presented under or in connection with a Letter of Credit (including originals or copies of documents sent directly to the Applicant) or of any property for which payment is supported by a Letter of Credit shall ratify the Bank’s honor of the documents and absolutely preclude the Applicant from raising a defense or claim with respect to the Bank’s honor of the relevant presentation.

3.3 Documents. Unless specified to the contrary in the relevant Application, the Applicant agrees that the Bank and its correspondents: (a) may accept as complying with the applicable Letter of Credit any Item drawn, issued or presented under such Letter of Credit

which is issued or purportedly issued by an agent, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or other representative of the party identified in such Letter of Credit as the party permitted to draw, issue or present such Item; and (b) may in its or their reasonable discretion, but shall not be obligated to, accept or honor (i) any item which substantially complies with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit; (ii) any Item which substantially complies under the laws, rules, regulations and general banking or trade customs and usages of the place of presentation, negotiation or payment; (iii) drafts which fail to bear any or adequate reference to the applicable Letter of Credit; (iv) any Item presented to the Bank after the stated expiration date of a Letter of Credit but within any applicable time period during which such Letter of Credit may be honored in accordance with the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable (and, in any event, any Item presented to the Bank on the Business Day immediately following the stated expiration date of a Letter of Credit, if such stated expiration date falls on a day which is not a Business Day); or (v) any Item which substantially complies with the requirements of the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable. In determining whether to pay under a Letter of Credit, the Bank shall have no obligation to the Applicant or any other Person except to confirm that the Items required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and appear on their face to substantially comply with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. For purposes of the foregoing, an Item “substantially complies” unless there are discrepancies in the presentation which appear to be substantial and which reflect corresponding defects in the beneficiary’s performance in the underlying transaction. A discrepancy is not substantial if it is unrelated or immaterial to the nature or amount of the Applicant’s loss. For example, documents required by the Bank that do not comply with the timing requirements of the Letter of Credit for presenting or dating any required beneficiary statement nonetheless substantially comply if those timing requirements are not material in determining whether the underlying agreement has been substantially performed or violated.

3.4 Exculpation. In addition to the exculpatory provisions contained in the UCP, the UCC and/or the ISP, as applicable, the Bank and its correspondents shall not be responsible for, and the Applicant’s obligation to reimburse the Bank shall not be affected by (a) compliance with any law, custom or regulation in effect in the country of issuance, presentation, negotiation or payment of a Letter of Credit, (b) any refusal by the Bank to honor any Item because of an applicable law, regulation or ruling of any governmental authority or agency, whether now or hereafter in effect, (c) any action or inaction required or permitted under the UCC, the UCP, the ISP or the United Nations Convention on Independent Guarantees and Stand-by Letters of Credit, in each case as applicable, or (d) any act or the failure to act of any agent or correspondent of the Bank, including, without limitation, failure of any such agent or correspondent to pay any Item because of any law, decree, regulation, ruling or interpretation of any governmental authority or agency.

3.5 Risks. The Applicant assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit (it being understood that such assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Applicant from pursuing any right or remedy it may have against any such beneficiary or transferee). The Applicant further agrees that any action or omission by the Bank under or in connection with a Letter of Credit or any related Item, document or property shall, unless such action or omission constitutes the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Bank (as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), be binding on the Applicant and shall not put the Bank under any

resulting liability to the Applicant. Without limiting the foregoing, the Applicant agrees that in no event shall the Bank be liable for incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary or special damages.

3.6 Limitation on Bank’s Obligations. Without limiting any other provision herein, the Bank is expressly authorized and directed to honor any request for payment which is made under and in compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without regard to, and without any duty on the part of the Bank to inquire into, the existence of any dispute or controversy between any of the Applicant, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, or the respective rights, duties or liabilities of any of them, or whether any facts represented in an Item presented under a Letter of Credit are true or correct. Furthermore, the Applicant agrees that the Bank’s obligation to the Applicant shall be limited to honoring requests for payment made under and in compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit, and the Bank’s obligation remains so limited even if the Bank has prepared or assisted in the preparation of the wording of any Letter of Credit or any Item required to be presented thereunder and even if the Bank is otherwise aware of the underlying transaction giving rise to any Letter of Credit.

3.7 Automatic Renewal of Letters of Credit. IF A LETTER OF CREDIT CONTAINS ANY PROVISION FOR AUTOMATIC RENEWAL, THE APPLICANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE BANK IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO ALLOW SUCH RENEWAL TO OCCUR AND ANY SUCH RENEWAL SHALL REMAIN WITHIN THE SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION OF THE BANK. THE APPLICANT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF EACH LETTER OF CREDIT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS TERMS IF THE BANK ALLOWS SUCH RENEWAL TO OCCUR; PROVIDED THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO REQUEST THE BANK TO DISALLOW ANY SUCH RENEWAL ON THE CONDITION THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL GIVE THE BANK PRIOR WRITTEN NOTICE OF SUCH REQUEST NOT LESS THAN 30 DAYS PRIOR TO THE DEADLINE IMPOSED UPON THE BANK FOR NOTIFICATION TO THE BENEFICIARY OF NON-RENEWAL OF SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Applicant represents and warrant to the Bank that:

(a) All payments of principal of, or interest on, letter of credit reimbursement obligations, all payments of fees and all other payments hereunder shall be made by the Applicant in immediately available funds to the Bank at its principal office in Los Angeles, California not later than 1:00 P.M. Los Angeles, California time (or, in the case of amounts payable to BTMU pursuant to Section 6(d), to BTMU at its principal office in New York, New York not later than 1:00 P.M. New York City time), in each case, on the date due, and funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Bank (or BTMU, as the case may be) on the next Business Day. If any payment of principal, interest or fees falls on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next Business Day, and additional interest or fees (as the case may be) shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

(b) The Applicant irrevocably agrees that the Bank may (but shall not be obligated to) debit any deposit account (including, without limitation, the Account) of the Applicant maintained with the Bank or any of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, BTMU) in an amount sufficient to pay any fee, reimbursement obligation or other amount that is due and payable hereunder. The Bank shall promptly notify the Applicant of any such debit (but failure of the Bank to do so shall not impair the effectiveness thereof or impose any liability on the Bank).

I The Applicant shall reimburse the Bank for each payment under a Letter of Credit in the same currency in which such payment was made, provided that, if the Bank so requests (in its discretion), the Applicant shall reimburse the Bank in United States dollars for any payment under a Letter of Credit made in a foreign currency at the rate at which the Bank could sell such foreign currency in exchange for United States dollars for transfer to the place of payment of such payment or, if there is no such rate, the United States dollar equivalent of the Bank’s actual cost of settlement. The Applicant agrees to pay the Bank on demand in United States dollars such amounts as the Bank may be required to expend to comply with any and all governmental exchange regulations now or hereafter applicable to the purchase of foreign currency.

(d) All payments by the Applicant hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise or stamp taxes and any other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding franchise taxes imposed on or measured by the Bank’s or BTMU’s net income or receipts (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). If any withholding or

deduction from any payment to be made to the Bank or BTMU hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Applicant will

(i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(ii) promptly forward to the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, evidencing such payment to such authority; and

(iii) pay to the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Bank or by BTMU, as the case may be, will equal the full amount the Bank or BTMU would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Bank or BTMU on any payment received by the Bank or BTMU hereunder, the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, may pay such Taxes and the Applicant will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalty, interest or expense) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, would have received had no such Taxes been asserted.

If the Applicant fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Applicant shall indemnify the Bank and BTMU for any incremental Tax, interest, penalty or expense that may become payable by the Bank or BTMU, as the case may be, as a result of such failure.

SECTION 9. INCREASED COSTS. If, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency,

(a) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and (taking into consideration the Bank’s or such controlling corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) the Bank determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity requirement is increased as a consequence of this Agreement or the Letters of Credit; or

(b) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by the Bank with respect to letters of credit, or imposes on the Bank any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Letters of Credit, and the Bank determines that the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to, or to impose a cost on, the Bank of issuing or maintaining

any Letter of Credit or of making any payment or disbursement under any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank under this Agreement,

then within ten (10) Business Days after demand by the Bank (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such demand and a calculation thereof in reasonable detail), the Applicant shall pay directly to the Bank such additional amount as will compensate the Bank for such increased capital or liquidity requirement, such increased cost or such reduction, as the case may be. Determinations and statements of the Bank pursuant to this Section 9 shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the provisions of this Section 9 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 9 shall apply to (i) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Public Law 111-203), as amended, and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

SECTION 10. EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND THEIR EFFECT.

10.1 Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:

10.1.1 Non-Payment of Liabilities, etc. Default in the payment when due of any principal of or interest on any Liabilities; or default, and continuance thereof for five (5) days after notice thereof from the Bank, in the payment when due of any fees (including, without limitation, any Letter of Credit Fee or Commitment Fee) or other amounts payable by the Applicant hereunder or under any other Financing Document.

10.1.2 Bankruptcy, etc. The Applicant or any guarantor of the Liabilities shall become insolvent or admit in writing its inability to pay debts as they mature, or the Applicant or any such guarantor shall apply for, consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or in the absence of such application, consent or acquiescence, a trustee or receiver is appointed for the Applicant or any such guarantor, or any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or any dissolution or liquidation proceeding is instituted by or against the Applicant or any such guarantor and, if instituted against the Applicant or such guarantor, remains for 30 days undismissed, or any writ of attachment is issued against any substantial portion of the Applicant’s or any such guarantor’s property and is not released within 30 days of service, or the Applicant or any such guarantor takes any action to authorize, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

10.1.3 Failure to Comply with Financing Documents. The Applicant shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Financing Document; or any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Documents shall at any time for any reason cease to be valid and binding on the

Applicant, or shall be declared to be null and void, or the validity or enforceability thereof shall be denied or contested by the Applicant, or a proceeding shall be commenced by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Applicant seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof and the Applicant shall fail diligently or successfully to defend such proceeding; or the Bank shall for any reason cease to have a valid and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in any portion of the Collateral (as defined in the Cash Collateral Agreement).

10.1.4 Other Agreements with Bank. Any default shall occur (subject to any applicable grace period) under any other agreement between the Applicant and the Bank (including, without limitation, any agreement under which the Applicant is a borrower and the Bank is a lender); or the Applicant shall fail to comply with or to perform (subject to any applicable grace period) any covenant set forth in any such other agreement as such covenant is in effect on the date hereof or is amended from time to time with the consent of the Bank (but without giving effect to the expiration or termination of any such agreement unless such agreement is replaced by another agreement to which the Bank is a party).

10.1.5 Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty made by the Applicant herein, in any Application, in the Cash Collateral Agreement or in any writing furnished in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be false or misleading in any material respect on the date made.

10.2 Effect of Event of Default. If any Event of Default described in Section 10.1.2 shall occur, all Liabilities shall immediately become due and payable, and if any other Event of Default shall occur, the Bank may declare all Liabilities to be due and payable, whereupon all Liabilities shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Applicant. The Bank shall promptly advise the Applicant of any such declaration, but failure to do so shall not impair the effect of such declaration.

SECTION 11. SECURITY.

11.1 Security. The prompt payment and performance of all Liabilities shall be secured as provided in the Cash Collateral Agreement. The Applicant further agrees that the Bank may set off and apply to any of the Liabilities which are then due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise) any amounts then on deposit in the Account.

11.2 Rights and Remedies. In addition to any rights or remedies provided for in the Cash Collateral Agreement, the Bank shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

SECTION 12. GENERAL.

12.1 Waiver, Amendments. No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect

to, any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Bank, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

12.2 Notices. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile and electronic transmission, which shall be considered original writings). Notices given by mail shall be deemed to have been given three (3) Business Days after the date sent if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the applicable party at its address shown below its signature hereto or at such other address as such party may, by written notice received by the other party to this Agreement, have designated as its address for notices. Notices given by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been given when sent. Notices sent by any other means shall be deemed to have been given when received (or when delivery is refused). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notices to the Bank pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by the Bank.

(b) The Bank may rely on any writing (including any facsimile, any electronic transmission or any information on a computer disk or similar medium which may be reduced to writing), or any telephonic or other oral message or instruction (including, without limitation, any oral waiver of any discrepancy with respect to any Item), that the Bank believes in good faith to have been received from an authorized officer, employee or representative of the Applicant, and the Bank shall not be liable for any action taken in good faith with respect to any writing, message or instruction from an unauthorized person. The Bank shall not be under any duty to verify the identity of any person submitting any Application or other writing or making any other communication hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank is not obligated to recognize the authenticity of any request to issue, amend, honor or otherwise act on a Letter of Credit that is not evidenced to the Bank’s satisfaction by a writing originally signed by a person the Applicant has certified is authorized to act for the Applicant hereunder or by a message or instruction authenticated to the Bank’s satisfaction.

12.3 Costs, Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification. (a) The Applicant agrees to pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Bank (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and charges of counsel for the Bank) in connection with (i) the preparation and administration of any Financing Document and any Letters of Credit, any waiver or consent thereunder or any amendment thereof or any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default and (ii) the enforcement of the Financing Documents and the Liabilities. In addition, the Applicant agrees to pay, and to save the Bank harmless from all liability for, any stamp or other taxes which may be payable in connection with the execution, delivery or enforcement of the Financing Documents, the issuance of any Letters of Credit hereunder, or the issuance of any other instrument or document provided for herein or delivered or to be delivered hereunder or in connection herewith.

(b) The Applicant agrees to indemnify the Bank and each of its officers, directors, employees, advisors, agents and affiliates (each, an “Indemnified Party”) against, and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, damages, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and charges, expert

witness fees and other dispute resolution expenses) and other liabilities (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”) incurred by any Indemnified Party as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to, any Financing Document or any Letter of Credit (and without regard to whether the applicable Indemnified Party is a party to any proceeding out of which such Indemnified Liabilities arise), except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, non-appealable order that any Indemnified Liability resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the term “Indemnified Liabilities” includes any claim or liability in which an advising, confirming or other nominated bank, or a beneficiary requested to issue its own undertaking, seeks to be reimbursed, indemnified or compensated. If and to the extent the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Applicant agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permitted under applicable law.

I Without limiting paragraph (b) above, the Applicant agrees to indemnify the Bank, and to hold the Bank harmless from, any loss or expense incurred by the Bank as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for the payment of any amount due hereunder in a particular currency (the “Currency of Account”) and such judgment or order being expressed in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the Currency of Account and as a result of any variation having occurred in the rate of exchange between the date which such amount is converted into the Judgment Currency and the date of actual payment pursuant thereto. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Applicant.

(d) All obligations provided for in this Section 12.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

12.4 Captions. Section captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

12.5 Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, EACH PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED IN SUCH MANNER AS TO BE EFFECTIVE AND VALID UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, BUT IF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE PROHIBITED BY OR INVALID UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, SUCH PROVISION SHALL BE INEFFECTIVE TO THE EXTENT OF SUCH PROHIBITION OR INVALIDITY, WITHOUT INVALIDATING THE REMAINDER OF SUCH PROVISION OR THE REMAINING PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE APPLICANT AND RIGHTS OF THE BANK EXPRESSED HEREIN SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO AND NOT IN LIMITATION OF THOSE PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

12.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto as separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that signatures hereto

submitted by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be, and shall constitute, original signatures.

12.7 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Applicant may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Bank (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Applicant without such consent shall be null and void).

12.8 Foreign Assets Control Regulations; Patriot Act Notice. The Applicant certifies that no transaction in foreign commodities covered by any Application will be prohibited under the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department and that any importation related to a Letter of Credit will conform with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Applicant shall (a) ensure, and cause each of its subsidiaries to ensure, that no Person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls the Applicant or any subsidiary thereof is or shall be listed on the Specially Designated Nationals or Blocked Person List or other similar lists maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), the Department of the Treasury or included in any executive orders, and (b) not use or permit the use of the Letters of Credit or the proceeds of the Letter of Credits to violate any of the foreign asset control regulations of OFAC or any enabling statute or executive order relating thereto. The Bank hereby notifies the Applicant that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, and the Bank’s policies and practices, the Bank is required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies the Applicant, which information includes the name and address of the Applicant and such other information that will allow the Bank to identify the Applicant in accordance with the Patriot Act.

12.9 Mitigation; Limitation of Liability. The Applicant agrees to take action to avoid or reduce the amount of any damages which may be claimed against the Bank. For example, (a) in the case of wrongful honor, the Applicant agrees to enforce its rights arising out of the underlying transaction (except to the extent that enforcement is impractical due to the insolvency of the beneficiary or other Person from whom the Applicant might otherwise recover), and (b) in the case of wrongful dishonor, the Applicant agrees to act specifically and timely to authorize the Bank to effect a cure and give written assurances to the beneficiary that a cure is being arranged. The Applicant’s aggregate remedies against the Bank for honoring a presentation or retaining honored documents in breach of the Bank’s obligations to the Applicant (whether arising under this Agreement, applicable letter of credit practice or law, or any other agreement or law) are limited to the aggregate amount paid by the Applicant to the Bank with respect to the honored presentation.

12.10 Subrogation. The Bank shall be subrogated (for purposes of defending against the Applicant’s claims and proceeding against others to the extent of any liability of the Bank to the Applicant) to the Applicant’s rights against any Person who may be liable to the Applicant on any underlying transaction, to the rights of any holder in due course or Person with similar status against the Applicant and to the rights of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or its assignee or any Person with similar status against the Applicant.

12.11 Reinstatement. The Applicant agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment theretofore applied by the Bank to any of the Liabilities is or must be rescinded or returned by the Bank for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Applicant), such Liabilities shall, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding such application by the Bank, and the obligations of the Applicant with respect thereto shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such Liabilities, all as though such application by the Bank had not been made.

12.12 Continuation of Liability. Regardless of the expiry date of a Letter of Credit, the Applicant shall remain liable hereunder until the Bank is released from liability by every Person that is entitled to draw or demand payment under each Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto.

12.13 Jurisdiction. THE APPLICANT HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY; PROVIDED THAT ANY SUIT SEEKING ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ANY COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE BROUGHT, AT THE BANK’S OPTION, IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH COLLATERAL OR OTHER PROPERTY MAY BE FOUND. THE APPLICANT FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE ADDRESS SET FORTH BENEATH ITS SIGNATURE HERETO (OR SUCH OTHER ADDRESS AS IT SHALL HAVE SPECIFIED IN WRITING TO THE BANK AS ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES HEREUNDER) OR BY PERSONAL SERVICE WITHIN OR WITHOUT THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE APPLICANT EXPRESSLY AND 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 LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE BANK TO BRING ANY ACTION IN ANY OTHER COURT.

12.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE APPLICANT AND THE BANK HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE CASH COLLATERAL AGREEMENT OR ANY APPLICATION, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT, AMENDMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING FROM ANY BANKING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

(A) Applicant understands that the risk is greater if Applicant requests a standby letter of credit which requires only a simple demand without any supporting documentation. Typically, standby letters of credit require the beneficiary to provide some written statement in order to obtain payment. However, a beneficiary that can obtain a standby letter of credit available only against presentation of a simple demand, relieves itself of any documentary requirements.

(B) Applicant understands that the final form of Credit may be subject to such revision and changes as are deemed necessary or appropriate by Bank and Applicant hereby consents to such revisions and changes.

The opening of the Credit is subject to the terms and conditions appearing on the subsequent page(s) hereof to which Applicant agrees and, if Applicant has entered into a master letter of credit issuance agreement with Bank, then the Credit is subject to the terms and provisions set forth therein to the extent they are inconsistent with the terms and conditions provided herein.

THE UNDERSIGNED AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH ABOVE AND ON SUBSEQUENT PAGES.
