(b) The KEXIM Facility Agent shall promptly remit in immediately available funds to KEXIM any payments received by the KEXIM Facility Agent for the account of KEXIM.

(c) Whenever any payment (including any payment of principal of or interest on any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan or any Fees or other Obligations) hereunder shall become due, or otherwise would occur on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall (except as otherwise required by the proviso to the definition of “Interest Period”) be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day, and such increase of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

3.10 Borrowings and Payments Generally. (a) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate KEXIM to obtain funds for any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by KEXIM that it has obtained or will obtain funds for any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan in any particular place or manner.

(b) The Borrower hereby authorizes KEXIM, if and to the extent payment owed to KEXIM is not made when due under this Agreement or under the KEXIM Direct Facility Notes held by KEXIM, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with KEXIM any amount so due.

3.11 Fees.

ARTICLE 4

LIBOR AND TAX PROVISIONS

4.01 LIBOR Lending Unlawful. In the event that it becomes unlawful or, by reason of a Change in Law, KEXIM is unable to honor its obligation to make or maintain KEXIM Direct Facility Loans, then KEXIM will promptly notify the Borrower of such event (with a copy to the KEXIM Facility Agent) and (a) KEXIM’s obligation to make or to continue KEXIM Direct Facility Loans shall be suspended until such time as KEXIM may again make and maintain KEXIM Direct Facility Loans and (b) subject to Section 3.4 (Mandatory Prepayment of Secured Debt) of the Common Terms Agreement, the Borrower shall prepay in full that portion of the KEXIM Direct Facility Loan that KEXIM advises is so affected, on or before the last day of the then-current Interest Period or, if earlier, such date as shall be mandated by such Change in Law. At the Borrower’s request, KEXIM shall use reasonable efforts, including using reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its KEXIM Direct Facility Loans or to assign its rights and obligations under the Financing Documents to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of KEXIM, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or avoid such illegality and (b) would not subject KEXIM to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to KEXIM. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by KEXIM in connection with any such designation or assignment.

4.02 Inability to Determine Interest Rates. If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a KEXIM Direct Facility Loan:

(a) the KEXIM Facility Agent reasonably determines that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period; or

(b) the KEXIM Facility Agent is advised by KEXIM that KEXIM has reasonably determined that LIBOR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to KEXIM of making or maintaining its KEXIM Direct Facility Loans for such Interest Period;

-11-

then the KEXIM Facility Agent shall give notice thereof (a “Rate Determination Notice”) to the Borrower and KEXIM by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the KEXIM Facility Agent notifies the Borrower and KEXIM that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which notice of subsequent change in circumstances shall be given as promptly as practical), (i) during the thirty (30) day period following such Rate Determination Notice (the “Negotiation Period”) the KEXIM Facility Agent and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith with a view to agreeing upon a substitute interest rate basis for such KEXIM Direct Facility Loans which shall reflect the cost to KEXIM of funding the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans from alternative sources (a “Substitute Basis”) and if such Substitute Basis is so agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, such Substitute Basis shall apply in lieu of LIBOR to all Interest Periods commencing on or after the first day of the affected Interest Period and (ii) if a Substitute Basis is not agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, the Borrower may elect to prepay the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans; provided, however, that if the Borrower does not elect so to prepay, KEXIM shall determine (and shall certify from time to time in a certificate delivered by KEXIM to the KEXIM Facility Agent setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the computation of such amount) the rate basis reflecting the cost to KEXIM of funding the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans for the Interest Period commencing on or after the first day of the affected Interest Period, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice have ceased to apply and such rate basis shall be binding upon the Borrower and KEXIM and shall apply in lieu of LIBOR for the affected Interest Period.

4.03 Increased Costs. (a) (1) If any Change in Law shall (A) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, KEXIM; (B) subject the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes and (ii) Taxes described in clauses (a) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (C) impose on KEXIM or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or KEXIM Direct Facility Loans; and (2) the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Person of making or maintaining any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such KEXIM Direct Facility Loan) to the Borrower or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Person hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (except to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 4.04 (Obligation to Mitigate)).

(b) If KEXIM reasonably determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on KEXIM’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement or any of the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans to a level below that which KEXIM could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration KEXIM’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from

-12-

time to time upon notice by KEXIM, the Borrower shall pay within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such notice to KEXIM such additional amount or amounts as will compensate KEXIM in full for any such reduction suffered (except to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 4.04 (Obligation to Mitigate)). In determining such amount, KEXIM may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole discretion) shall deem appropriate.

(c) To claim any amount under this Section 4.03, the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM, as applicable, shall promptly deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the KEXIM Facility Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) and delivery to the Borrower shall be prima facie evidence of the matters to which it relates. The Borrower shall pay the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Promptly after the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM, as applicable, has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 4.03, such Person shall notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the KEXIM Facility Agent). Failure or delay on the part of the KEXIM Facility Agent or KEXIM to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not constitute a waiver of such Person’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Person pursuant to this Section 4.03 for any increased costs or reductions attributable to the failure of such Person to notify Borrower within two hundred seventy (270) days after the Change in Law giving rise to those increased costs or reductions of such Person’s intention to claim compensation for those circumstances; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to those increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the two hundred seventy (270) day period referred to above shall be extended to include that period of retroactive effect.

4.04 Obligation to Mitigate. (a) If KEXIM requests compensation under Section 4.03 (Increased Costs), or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to KEXIM or any Government Authority for the account of KEXIM pursuant to Section 4.06 (Taxes), then, KEXIM, if requested by the Borrower in writing, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its KEXIM Direct Facility Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations under the Financing Documents to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of KEXIM, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.03 (Increased Costs) or Section 4.06 (Taxes), as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject KEXIM to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to KEXIM in any material respect, contrary to KEXIM’s normal banking proactive or violate any applicable Government Rule. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by KEXIM in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If KEXIM requests compensation under Section 4.03 (Increased Costs), or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to KEXIM or any Government Authority for the account of KEXIM pursuant to Section 4.06 (Taxes) and, in each case, KEXIM

-13-

has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office or to make an assignment in accordance with Section 4.04(a), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice in writing to KEXIM and the KEXIM Facility Agent, request KEXIM to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04 (Assignments)), all (but not less than all) its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all of its KEXIM Direct Facility Loans and KEXIM Direct Facility Commitments) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be an Eligible Facility Lender, if an Eligible Facility Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the KEXIM Facility Agent, (ii) KEXIM shall have received payment of an amount equal to all Obligations of the Borrower owing to KEXIM from such assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other Obligations) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.03 (Increased Costs) or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.06 (Taxes), such assignment will result in the elimination or reduction of such compensation or payments. KEXIM shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, as a result of a waiver by KEXIM of its rights under Sections 4.03 (Increased Costs) or 4.06 (Taxes), as applicable, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply. If, notwithstanding the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.03 (Increased Costs) or 4.06 (Taxes), KEXIM refuses to be replaced pursuant to this Section 4.04, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay KEXIM any of the compensation referred to in this Section 4.04 or any additional amounts incurred or accrued under Sections 4.03 (Increased Costs) or 4.06 (Taxes) from and after the date that such replacement would have occurred but for KEXIM’s refusal.

4.05 Funding Losses. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, continue or prepay any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (c) the assignment of any KEXIM Direct Facility Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.04 (Obligation to Mitigate), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate KEXIM for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to KEXIM shall be deemed to be the amount determined by the KEXIM Facility Agent (based upon the information delivered to it by KEXIM) to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such KEXIM Direct Facility Loan had such event not occurred, at LIBOR that would have been applicable to such KEXIM Direct Facility Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or continue a KEXIM Direct Facility Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such KEXIM Direct Facility Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which KEXIM would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the LIBOR market. To claim any amount under this Section 4.05, the KEXIM Facility Agent shall promptly deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that KEXIM is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 4.05 (including calculations, in reasonable detail, showing how the KEXIM Facility Agent computed such amount or amounts), which certificate

-14-

shall be based upon the information delivered to the KEXIM Facility Agent by KEXIM. The Borrower shall pay to the KEXIM Facility Agent for the benefit of KEXIM the amount due and payable and set forth on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

4.06 Taxes. For purposes of this Section 4.06, the term “applicable Governmental Rule” includes FATCA.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments on account of any Obligations shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes, except as required by applicable Government Rule; provided that, if the Withholding Agent is required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from those payments pursuant to applicable Government Rule, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Government Authority in accordance with applicable Government Rule and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.06), each Person entitled thereto receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, but without duplication of the provisions of Section 4.06(a), the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Government Authority in accordance with any applicable Government Rule.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify KEXIM, each Other Recipient and the KEXIM Facility Agent, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes payable or paid by such Person on or with respect to any payment on account of any Obligation or required to be deducted or withheld from such payment and any Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.06), and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising from, or with respect to, those Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, whether or not those Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. To claim any amount under this Section 4.06(c), the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or Other Recipient (as applicable) must deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the KEXIM Facility Agent) a certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Government Authority pursuant to this Section 4.06, the Borrower shall deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Government Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the KEXIM Facility Agent. If no Taxes are payable with respect to any payment hereunder, promptly upon the request of the KEXIM Facility Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the KEXIM Facility Agent a statement to such effect with respect to each jurisdiction designated by the KEXIM Facility Agent.

-15-

(e) Status of Lenders. (i) KEXIM or any other Person who becomes a lender under this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.04(b) (Assignments) (a “New Lender”), if entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made hereunder, shall deliver to the Borrower and the KEXIM Facility Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, KEXIM or New Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent as will enable the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent to determine whether or not KEXIM or New Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.06(e)(ii) (B) and (ii)(C) and Section 4.06(f) below) shall not be required if in KEXIM’s or New Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject KEXIM or New Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of KEXIM or New Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

A. Any New Lender that is a United States Person shall deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent for transmission to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such New Lender becomes a lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such New Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

B. KEXIM or any New Lender that is not a United States Person (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent for transmission to the Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of KEXIM) or on or prior to the date of the assignment and acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a lender under this Agreement (in the case of a New Lender), and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent, whichever of the following is applicable: (i) in the case of any New Lender that is a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Financing Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Financing Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (ii) in the case of any New Lender, executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

-16-

(iii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; (iv) executed copies of IRS Form W-8EXP, or (v) to the extent any New Lender that is a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8EXP, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable, provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

C. KEXIM or any New Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 4.06(e) hereby agree, from time to time after the initial delivery by KEXIM or New Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that KEXIM or New Lender shall, upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent, (i) promptly deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent for transmission to the Borrower (but in the case of a Participant, only to the extent transmission to the Borrower is required under Section 10.04(d) (Assignments)) new copies of the applicable forms, certificates or other evidence, properly completed and duly executed by KEXIM or New Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code and reasonably requested in writing by Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent to confirm or establish that KEXIM or New Lender is not subject to (or is subject to reduced) deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to KEXIM or New Lender under this Agreement, or (ii) notify the KEXIM Facility Agent and the Borrower (but in the case of a Participant, only to the extent transmission to the Borrower is required under Section 10.04(d) (Assignments)) of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence. This Section 4.06(e) applies without duplication of the provisions of Section 4.06(f).

(f) FATCA. If a payment made to KEXIM or a New Lender under any Financing Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if KEXIM or such New Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements

-17-

of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), KEXIM shall deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent at the time or times prescribed by Government Rule and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Government Rule (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the KEXIM Facility Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that KEXIM or such New Lender has complied with KEXIM’s or such New Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.06(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) FATCA Treatment. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the KEXIM Facility Agent shall treat (and KEXIM hereby authorizes the KEXIM Facility Agent to treat) this Agreement and the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans as not qualifying as “grandfathered obligations” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

(h) Refunds. If the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or a New Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.06, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Government Authority with respect to such refund), provided that, (i) the Borrower, upon the request of the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or a New Lender (as the case may be), shall repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Government Authority) to the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender, as applicable, in the event the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender, as applicable, is required to repay such refund to such Government Authority, and (ii) in no event will the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.06(h), the payment of which would place the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or such New Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the KEXIM Facility Agent, KEXIM or a New Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(a) If any Event of Default occurs for any reason (except the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 9.7 (Bankruptcy; Insolvency) of the Common Terms Agreement with respect to the Borrower, for which provision is made in Section 8.02 (Acceleration Upon Bankruptcy)), whether voluntary or involuntary, and is continuing (after giving effect to any cure of the applicable Event of Default), the KEXIM Facility Agent may, or upon the direction of KEXIM shall, by written notice to the Borrower declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans and other Obligations to be due and payable or all the KEXIM Direct Facility Commitments (if not theretofore terminated) to be terminated, whereupon the full unpaid amount of such KEXIM Direct Facility Loans and other Obligations that have been declared due and payable shall be and become immediately due and payable, without further notice, demand or presentment, as the case may be, and such outstanding KEXIM Direct Facility Commitments shall terminate.

(b) Any declaration made pursuant to this Section 8.03 may, should KEXIM in its sole and absolute discretion so elect, be rescinded by written notice to the Borrower at any time after the principal of the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans has become due and payable, but before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies so due, or any part thereof, has been entered; provided that, no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

8.04 Action Upon Event of Default. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if any Event of Default occurs for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, and is continuing (after giving effect to any cure of the applicable Event of Default), the KEXIM

8.05 Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any moneys received by the KEXIM Facility Agent from the Common Security Trustee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the period during which remedies have been initiated shall be applied in full or in part by the KEXIM Facility Agent against the Obligations in the following order of priority (but without prejudice to the right of KEXIM, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, to recover any shortfall from the Borrower):

ARTICLE 9

THE KEXIM FACILITY AGENT

9.01 Appointment and Authority. (a) KEXIM hereby appoints, designates and authorizes Shinhan Bank New York Branch as its KEXIM Facility Agent under and for purposes of each Financing Document to which the KEXIM Facility Agent is a party, and in its capacity as the KEXIM Facility Agent, to act on its behalf as Secured Debt Holder Group Representative and the Designated Voting Party (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) for KEXIM. Shinhan Bank New York Branch hereby accepts this appointment and agrees to act as the KEXIM Facility Agent for KEXIM in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. KEXIM appoints and authorizes the KEXIM Facility Agent to act on its behalf under each Financing Document to which it is a party and in the absence of other written instructions from KEXIM received from time to time by the KEXIM Facility Agent (with respect to which the KEXIM Facility Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.01 or as otherwise advised by counsel, and subject in all cases to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the KEXIM Facility Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in any Financing Document, the KEXIM Facility Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the KEXIM Facility Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with KEXIM or other KEXIM Direct Facility Secured Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Financing Document or otherwise exist against the KEXIM Facility Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the KEXIM Facility Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Government Rule. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The provisions of this ARTICLE 9 are solely for the benefit of the KEXIM Facility Agent and KEXIM, and neither the Borrower nor any other Person shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions other than the Borrower’s rights under Section 9.06(a) and (b) (Resignation or Removal of KEXIM Facility Agent).

-22-

9.02 Rights as a Lender or Secured Hedging Party. Each Person serving as the KEXIM Facility Agent hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Commercial Bank Lender, KEXIM Covered Facility Lender, KSURE Covered Facility Lender, Secured Hedging Party, or Gas Hedge Provider, as the case may be, as any other Commercial Bank Lender, KEXIM Covered Facility Lender, KSURE Covered Facility Lender, Secured Hedging Party, or Gas Hedge Provider, as the case may be, and may exercise the same as though it were not the KEXIM Facility Agent. Each such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or Affiliates of the Borrower as if such Person were not the KEXIM Facility Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to KEXIM.

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The KEXIM Facility Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the KEXIM Facility Agent shall not:

(i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Financing Documents that the KEXIM Facility Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by KEXIM; provided that the KEXIM Facility Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the KEXIM Facility Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Financing Document or applicable Government Rule; or

(iii) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Financing Documents, have any duty to disclose, nor shall the KEXIM Facility Agent be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the KEXIM Facility Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The KEXIM Facility Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the prior written consent or at the request of KEXIM or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The KEXIM Facility Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the KEXIM Facility Agent in writing by the Borrower or KEXIM.

(c) The KEXIM Facility Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Financing Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Financing Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created by any Security Document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in ARTICLE 6 (Conditions Precedent) or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of any items expressly required to be delivered to the KEXIM Facility Agent.

-23-

9.04 Reliance by KEXIM Facility Agent. The KEXIM Facility Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The KEXIM Facility Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a KEXIM Direct Facility Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of KEXIM, the KEXIM Facility Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to KEXIM unless the KEXIM Facility Agent has received notice to the contrary from KEXIM prior to the making of such KEXIM Direct Facility Loan. The KEXIM Facility Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.05 No Liability With Respect To KEXIM. The KEXIM Facility Agent acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Financing Document, in no event shall KEXIM (a) be obliged to pay any fee to the KEXIM Facility Agent, including any fees specified in the KEXIM Facility Agent Fee Letter, regardless of any failure of the Borrower to pay such fees and (b) have any payment obligations (including reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations) to the KEXIM Facility Agent.

9.06 Resignation or Removal of KEXIM Facility Agent. (a) The KEXIM Facility Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Financing Documents at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and KEXIM. The KEXIM Facility Agent may be removed at any time (i) by KEXIM for such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) by the Borrower, with the consent of KEXIM, for such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event Shinhan Bank New York Branch is no longer the KEXIM Facility Agent, any successor KEXIM Facility Agent may be removed at any time with cause by KEXIM. Any such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor KEXIM Facility Agent, in accordance with this Section 9.06.

-24-

(b) Upon any notice of resignation by the KEXIM Facility Agent or upon the removal of the KEXIM Facility Agent by KEXIM, or by the Borrower with the approval of KEXIM pursuant to Section 9.06(a), KEXIM shall appoint a successor KEXIM Facility Agent, hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which the KEXIM Facility Agent is a party, such successor KEXIM Facility Agent to be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least one billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000); provided that, if no Default or Event of Default shall then be continuing, appointment of a successor KEXIM Facility Agent shall also be acceptable to the Borrower (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor KEXIM Facility Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.

(c) If no successor KEXIM Facility Agent has been appointed by KEXIM within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by such resigning KEXIM Facility Agent, or KEXIM elected to remove such Person, any KEXIM Direct Facility Secured Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor KEXIM Facility Agent. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a successor KEXIM Facility Agent, who shall serve as KEXIM Facility Agent hereunder and under each other Financing Document to which it is a party until such time, if any, as KEXIM appoints a successor KEXIM Facility Agent, as provided above.

(d) Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as KEXIM Facility Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) KEXIM Facility Agent, and the retiring (or removed) KEXIM Facility Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Financing Documents. After the retirement or removal of the KEXIM Facility Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this ARTICLE 9 and Section 10.08 (Indemnification by the Borrower) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring (or removed) Person, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Person was acting in its capacity as KEXIM Facility Agent.

9.07 No Amendment to Duties of KEXIM Facility Agent Without Consent. The KEXIM Facility Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement or any other Financing Document that affects its rights or duties hereunder or thereunder unless such KEXIM Facility Agent shall have given its prior written consent, in its capacity as KEXIM Facility Agent thereto.

9.08 Non-Reliance on KEXIM Facility Agent. KEXIM acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the KEXIM Facility Agent or any of its Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and make its extensions of credit. KEXIM also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the KEXIM Facility Agent or any of its Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Financing Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

-25-

The KEXIM Facility Agent will distribute to KEXIM each document or instrument (including each document or instrument delivered by the Borrower to the KEXIM Facility Agent pursuant to ARTICLE 5 (Representations and Warranties), ARTICLE 6 (Conditions Precedent) and ARTICLE 7 (Covenants)) received for the account of the KEXIM Facility Agent and copies of all other communications received by the KEXIM Facility Agent from the Borrower for distribution to KEXIM by the KEXIM Facility Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Financing Document.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of KEXIM and the KEXIM Facility Agent (and any attempted assignment or other transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void), and KEXIM or any New Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with Section 10.04(b), (ii) with respect to a New Lender, by way of participation in accordance with Section 10.04(d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.04(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

(b) Subject to this Section 10.04(b), KEXIM may at any time after the date hereof assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment or the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans at the time owing to it) (provided that, on the date of such assignment, such assignment would not result in an increase in amounts payable by the Borrower under Section 4.03 (Increased Costs) or Section 4.05 (Funding Losses), unless such increase in amounts payable measured on such date of assignment is waived by KEXIM and such Eligible Assignee). Except in the case of (x) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of KEXIM’s KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment and the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans at the time owing to it or (y) an assignment to an Eligible Facility Lender, or an Affiliate of an Eligible Facility Lender, or an Approved Fund with respect to an Eligible Facility Lender, the sum of (1) the outstanding KEXIM Direct Facility Commitments, if any, and (2) the outstanding KEXIM Direct Facility Loans subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Lender Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the KEXIM Facility Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Lender Assignment Agreement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than five million Dollars ($5,000,000) and, with respect to the assignment of the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans, in integral multiples of one million Dollars ($1,000,000), unless the

-28-

KEXIM Facility Agent otherwise consents in writing. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of the same percentage of outstanding KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment and outstanding KEXIM Direct Facility Loans and a proportionate part of KEXIM’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the KEXIM Direct Facility Loan and the KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, in the form of Exhibit C, together with a processing and recordation fee of three thousand five hundred Dollars ($3,500); provided that (A) no such fee shall be payable in the case of an assignment to an Eligible Facility Lender, an Affiliate thereof or an Approved Fund with respect to an Eligible Facility Lender, as applicable, and (B) in the case of contemporaneous assignments by KEXIM to one or more Approved Funds managed by the same investment advisor, only a single such three thousand five hundred Dollars ($3,500) fee shall be payable for all such contemporaneous assignments. If the Eligible Assignee is not an Eligible Facility Lender prior to such assignment, it shall deliver to the KEXIM Facility Agent an administrative questionnaire and all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” requirements. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the KEXIM Facility Agent pursuant to Section 10.04(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Lender Assignment Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder (i) shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of KEXIM hereunder, (ii) KEXIM shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Lender Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Lender Assignment Agreement covering all of KEXIM’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, KEXIM shall cease to be a party hereto), but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.01 (LIBOR Lending Unlawful), Section 4.03 (Increased Costs), Section 4.05 (Funding Losses), Section 4.06 (Taxes), Section 10.06 (Costs and Expenses) and Section 10.08 (Indemnification by the Borrower) with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and (iii) this Agreement shall be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Eligible Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment arising therefrom and the KEXIM Direct Loans allocated to such Eligible Assignee shall reduce such KEXIM Direct Facility Loans of KEXIM pro tanto. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a KEXIM Direct Facility Note to the assignee and/or a revised KEXIM Direct Facility Note to KEXIM reflecting such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by KEXIM of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by KEXIM of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.04(d). Upon any such assignment, the KEXIM Facility Agent will deliver a notice thereof to the Borrower (provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not result in any liability for the KEXIM Facility Agent).

(c) The KEXIM Facility Agent shall maintain the Register in accordance with Section 2.03(b) (Borrowing of Loans) above.

(d) Any New Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the KEXIM Facility Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person, or any Loan Party, any Sponsor, any Material Project Party, any Person that is party to any Additional Material Project Document or any Affiliate or

-29-

Subsidiary thereof) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its KEXIM Direct Facility Commitment or the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such New Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such New Lender remains solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the KEXIM Facility Agent and the other Eligible Assignees, if any, shall continue to deal solely and directly with such New Lender in connection with such New Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such New Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such New Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that, such agreement or instrument may provide that such New Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 (Amendments, Etc.) that directly affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.03 (Increased Costs), 4.05 (Funding Losses) and 4.06 (Taxes) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.06(e) (Taxes – Status of Lenders) (it being understood that any documentation required under Section 4.06 (Taxes) shall be delivered to such New Lender) to the same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.04; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.04 (Obligation to Mitigate) as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.04; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.03 (Increased Costs) or 4.06 (Taxes), with respect to any participation, than such New Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each New Lender agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 4.04 (Obligation to Mitigate) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.14 (Right of Setoff) as though it were such New Lender. Each New Lender which sells a Participation pursuant to this Section 10.04(d) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the KEXIM Direct Facility Loans or other obligations under the Financing Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that such New Lender shall not have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Financing Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.
