(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then following the termination of such Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 2.06(b) hereof, the Borrower shall not be liable to pay any fees on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.03. 2.04 Several Obligations; Certain Remedies Independent. The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it on the Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on such date, but neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on such date, and (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.05 hereof) no Lender shall have any obligation to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender for the failure by such Lender to make the -11- Loan required to be made by such Lender. The amounts payable by the Borrower at any time hereunder and under the Notes to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender, subject to Section 9 hereof, shall be entitled to protect and enforce its individual rights arising out of this Agreement and the Notes independently of any other Lender, and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender or the Administrative Agent to consent to, or be joined as an additional party in, any proceedings to recover the payment of any overdue amounts. 2.05 Notes. The Loan by each Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Note”), dated the Borrowing Date, payable to such Lender in an amount equal to the principal amount of such Loan. 2.06 Reduction and Termination of Commitments. (a) In addition to and without limitation of Section 9 hereof, the Commitment of each Lender shall terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) close of business on the last day of the Commitment Period and (ii) the Borrowing Date (immediately after giving effect to the Borrowing on such Date); provided that the foregoing shall not excuse a Defaulting Lender from liability for any failure to fund its Commitment that occurred prior to the date of the termination of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. (b) At any time during which any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may terminate in full the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender by giving notice to such Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided further, that (i) concurrently with such termination, the aggregate Commitments shall be reduced by the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender; and (ii) concurrently with any subsequent payment of interest or fees to the Lenders with respect to any period before the termination of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, the Borrower shall pay to such Defaulting Lender its ratable share of such interest or fees, as applicable to the extent such Defaulting Lender was otherwise entitled thereto. The termination of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any right that the Borrower, Administrative Agent or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. SECTION 3. PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. 3.01 Repayment. The Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders the full principal amount of the Loans in a single installment on the Final Maturity Date. Amounts repaid may not be reborrowed. 3.02 Interest. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan of such Lender for the period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date -12- such Loan shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for each Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any failure to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to pay to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders interest at the Post-Default Rate on such overdue amount. (c) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of any Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period and (ii) upon the payment or prepayment thereof (on the principal amount so paid or prepaid), except that interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. (d) Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and to the Borrower. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 3.03 Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans in whole or in part at any time or from time to time, which prepayment shall in each case be made together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement (including without limitation Section 5.04 hereof) without premium or penalty (subject to Section 5.04 hereof), provided, that (i) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of each prepayment under this Section 3.03 as provided in Section 4.04 hereof, (and, upon the date specified in any such notice, the amount to be prepaid shall become due and payable hereunder), and (ii) each partial prepayment shall be in the aggregate amount of $50,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. (b) If there shall occur a Change in Control, the Borrower shall, not later than five (5) Business Days thereafter, prepay the Loans in full, such prepayment to be made together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement (including without limitation Section 5.04 hereof). (c) On each date upon which the Borrower receives any cash proceeds from the incurrence in the capital markets or syndicated loan markets of any Indebtedness issued outside of Colombia or denominated in any currency other than Colombian pesos, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans with 100% of the cash proceeds (net of any customary underwriting, brokerage or arrangement commissions, transaction taxes and reasonable legal and other advisory fees and expenses associated therewith) thereof, which prepayment shall in each case be made together with accrued and unpaid interest -13- thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement (including without limitation Section 5.04 hereof). (d) Amounts prepaid may not be reborrowed. SECTION 4. PAYMENTS, ETC. 4.01 Payments. (a) Each payment of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent's Account not later than 11:00 a.m. New York time on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). (b) The Borrower shall, subject to Section 4.02 hereof, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement and the Notes for account of any Lender, specify to the Administrative Agent (which shall notify the intended recipient(s) thereof) the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that the Borrower fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may distribute such payment to the Lenders for application in such manner as it or the Majority Lenders, subject to Section 4.02 hereof, may determine to be appropriate). (c) Each payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement for the account of any Lender shall be paid by the Administrative Agent promptly to such Lender, in the same funds as received, for the account of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office. (d) If the due date of any payment under this Agreement would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension. 4.02 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, (a) the Loans shall be made, and any reduction of Commitments shall be made, pro rata according to the amounts of the Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans held by them; and (c) each payment of interest on the Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of interest on the Loans then due and payable to them. 4.03 Computations. Interest on the Loans and the commitment fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable. -14- 4.04 Certain Notices. The Notice of Borrowing and each notice of optional prepayment shall be effective only if received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. New York time on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date or five (5) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, as the case may be. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify the amount to be borrowed and the Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day). Each notice of optional prepayment shall specify (subject to Section 3.03 hereof) the amount to be prepaid and the date of prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice. 4.05 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date on which the Borrower is to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (any such payment being herein called the “Required Payment”) that the Borrower will not make the Required Payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making the Required Payment available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on such date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the rate specified in Section 3.02(b) hereof, until such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Borrower with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 4.05 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 4.06 Set-Off; Sharing of Payments. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 4.06 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have. If any such set-off is exercised by a Lender or any of its Affiliates at a time when an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing, such Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall promptly return the offset funds to the Borrower together with interest thereon accruing at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from and including the date such set-off is exercised to but excluding the date such funds are returned to the Borrower. -15- (b) If any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or the Notes through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker's lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a percentage of the principal of or interest on such Loan or such other amounts then due hereunder by the Borrower to such Lender in excess of its pro rata share thereof, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders. To such end, all of the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored; provided, that if any Lender shall commence an action or proceeding in any court to collect the principal of or interest on the Loan held by, or any other amount owed to, such Lender, and as a result thereof shall receive a disproportionate payment (other than any such payment received by such Lender as a result of attachment of, or set-off, exercise of banker's lien or any other proceedings against, deposits or other Property held by such Lender), such Lender shall not be required to share any portion of such disproportionate payment with any other Lender which, having received notice from such first-mentioned Lender (through the Administrative Agent) of such action or proceeding, had the legal right to, but did not, join such action or proceeding or commence and diligently prosecute a separate action or proceeding in any appropriate court to collect (as applicable) the principal of or interest on the Loan held by, or other such amount owed to, such other Lender. (c) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower. SECTION 5. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC. 5.01 Additional Costs. (a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any court or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, contribution, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit -16- extended by, any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Loan, its Note or its Commitment, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining its Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Note, by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be other than de minimis (other than Taxes, which shall be treated in accordance with Section 5.05 hereof), then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. (b) If any Lender shall have determined that, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender (or its direct or indirect parent) as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder or its Loan to a level below that which such Lender (or its direct or indirect parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive, then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its direct or indirect parent) for such reduction. (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01. Before or promptly after giving any such notice pursuant to this subsection (c) such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation, in the sole and absolute judgment of such Lender, (x) will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and (y) will not be disadvantageous to such Lender in any respect other than de minimis administrative costs associated with any such designation which will be reimbursed in full by the Borrower. Such Lender shall furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request for compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01, which certificate shall provide reasonable details as to the assumptions used in determining such amounts and the manner in which such amounts were calculated. Determinations and allocations for purposes of this Section 5.01(c) of the effect of any change described in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 on such Lender's cost of maintaining its Loan, or on amounts receivable by such Lender in respect of its Loan, and the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 5.01 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a basis reasonably consistent with such Lender's treatment of customers similar to the Borrower having generally similar provisions in their agreements with such Lender. -17- 5.02 Substitute Basis. If, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period (each, an “Affected Interest Period”): (a) the Administrative Agent determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank Eurodollar market, the “LIBO Rate” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or (b) the Majority Lenders reasonably determine and notify the Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01 hereof upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Loans for such Affected Interest Period is to be determined will not be adequate to cover the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans for such Affected Interest Period, then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof (each, a “Rate Determination Notice”) to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, during the thirty-day period following such Rate Determination Notice (the “Negotiation Period”) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith with a view to agreeing upon a substitute interest rate basis (having the written approval of the Majority Lenders) for the Loans which shall reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding their Loans from alternative sources (each, a “Substitute Basis”), and if such Substitute Basis is so agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, such Substitute Basis shall apply in lieu of the LIBO Rate to all Interest Periods commencing on or after the first day of the Affected Interest Period, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice have ceased to apply. If a Substitute Basis is not agreed upon during the Negotiation Period, the Borrower may elect to prepay the Loans pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof; provided, however, that if the Borrower does not elect so to prepay, each Lender shall determine (and shall certify from time to time in a certificate delivered by such Lender to the Administrative Agent setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the computation of such amount) the rate basis reflecting the cost to such Lender of funding its Loan 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 such Lender and shall apply in lieu of the LIBO Rate for the relevant Interest Period. 5.03 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that on or after the date hereof the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any competent Governmental Authority shall make it unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain its Loan hereunder (and, in the opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) following which (a) such Lender's Commitment shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain its Loan hereunder and (b) if such Requirement of Law shall so mandate, such Lender's Loan shall be prepaid by the Borrower, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts -18- payable by the Borrower under this Agreement, on or before such date as shall be mandated by such Requirement of Law; provided, however, that if it is lawful for such Lender to maintain its Loan through the last day of the current Interest Period, such payment shall be made on such date. 5.04 Compensation. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts (if any) as shall be sufficient to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to: (a) any prepayment of the Loan of such Lender for any reason on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period; or (b) the failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the conditions precedent specified in Section 6 hereof to be satisfied) to make the Borrowing on the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing given pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, or to prepay any Loan in accordance with a notice of prepayment under Section 3.03 hereof. Each Lender will furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under this Section 5.04, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. 5.05 Taxes. (a) All payments on account of the principal of and interest on the Loans and the Notes, fees and all other amounts payable hereunder by the Borrower to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, amounts payable under paragraph (b) of this Section 5.05, shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or liability for Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes). (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender against, and reimburse them within five 5 Business Days following demand for, any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) paid at any time by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) and any documented loss, liability, claim or expense, including interest, penalties and legal fees, that the Administrative Agent or such Lender has incurred at any time arising out of or in connection with any failure of the Borrower to make any payment of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) when due. (c) In the event that the Borrower, any Person making a payment hereunder on behalf of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) from any amounts payable on, under or in respect of this Agreement, the Loans or the Notes, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Person entitled to such amount such additional amounts as may be required, after the deduction or withholding of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes), to enable such Person to receive from the Borrower on the due -19- date thereof an amount equal to the full amount stated to be payable to such Person under this Agreement, the Loans and the other Loan Documents. (d) The Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent original or certified copies of official tax receipts in respect of each payment of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) required under this Section 5.05, as soon as practicable (and in any event no later than forty five (45) days) after the date such payment is made, and the Borrower shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent at its request or at the request of any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) any other information, documents and receipts that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably require to establish that full and timely payment has been made of all Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) required to be paid under this Section 5.05. (e) The Borrower agrees to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender against, all present and future value added, stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise taxes, charges or similar levies and any related interest or penalties incidental thereto imposed by Colombia, or any jurisdiction from which any amount payable hereunder is made, or any municipality or other political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein which arises from any payment made by the Borrower hereunder or from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Loan Documents. (f) If pursuant to this Section 5.05 the Borrower is required to pay to or for the account of any Lender any additional amounts in excess of such additional amounts payable on the date hereof, then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the sole and absolute judgment of such Lender, such change (i) would eliminate or reduce any such excess additional amounts and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any respect other than de minimis administrative costs associated with such designation which shall be reimbursed in full by the Borrower. (g) Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, each Lender agrees (but only to the extent that such Lender is lawfully able to do so) to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete in good faith, execute and deliver to the Borrower such forms, certificates, documents, applications, declarations or returns (collectively, “Forms”) as are necessary to establish the extent to which any payments to such Lender are exempt from, or are entitled to a reduction of, withholding or deduction of any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority of Colombia (“Colombian Taxes”), provided that no Lender shall be under any obligation to provide any information to the Borrower which such Lender deems, in such Lender's judgment, to be confidential and unless (A) such Lender or the Administrative Agent is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such Forms, (B) the completion, execution and delivery of such Forms will not result, in the good faith, reasonable determination of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, in the imposition on such Lender or the Administrative Agent of (x) any additional legal or regulatory burden or (y) any additional documented, non-de minimis out-of-pocket costs, unless the Borrower has previously agreed in a writing satisfactory to such Lender or the -20- Administrative Agent, as applicable, to reimburse such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, for such costs, or (z) any other non-de minimis adverse consequences. The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay to any Lender any amounts pursuant to this Section 5.05, including additional amounts described in subsection (c) above, in respect of Colombian Taxes that would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender to comply with its obligations under this Section 5.05 in a reasonably timely fashion. 5.06 Replacement of Lenders. If (i) any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof or if the Borrower is obligated to make any payment to or on behalf of any Lender under Section 5.05 hereof, (ii) any Lender’s obligation to make or maintain its Loan hereunder shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.03 hereof, or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) being herein called a “Requesting Lender”), the Borrower, upon three (3) Business Days notice, may require that such Requesting Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement to any bank or other financial institution (each, a “Proposed Lender”) identified by the Borrower that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such determination by the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (i) if such Proposed Lender agrees to assume all of the obligations of such Requesting Lender hereunder, and to purchase all of such Requesting Lender’s Loan hereunder for consideration equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Requesting Lender’s Loan, together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase and all other amounts payable hereunder to such Requesting Lender on or prior to the date of such transfer (including any fees accrued hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Section 5.04 hereof as if such Requesting Lender’s Loan were being prepaid in full on such date) and (ii) if such Requesting Lender has requested compensation pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof or if the Borrower is obligated to make any payment to or on behalf of any Lender under Section 5.05 hereof, any corresponding compensation or payment to such Proposed Lender is lower than that of the Requesting Lender. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof, such Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder the agreements of the Borrower contained in Sections 5.01, 5.05 and 11.03 hereof (without duplication of any payments made to such Requesting Lender by the Borrower or the Proposed Lender) shall survive for the benefit of such Requesting Lender under this Section 5.06 with respect to the time prior to such replacement. SECTION 6. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. 6.01 Conditions to Closing. The effectiveness of Section 2.01(a) hereof shall be subject to the conditions precedent that (i) there shall not have occurred since December 31, 2009 any Material Adverse Change and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received the following documents, each of which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lenders: (a) Loan Agreement.

SECTION 10. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 10.01 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 10.05 hereof and the first sentence of Section 10.06 hereof shall include reference to its affiliates and its own and its affiliates' officers, directors, employees and agents): (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents be a trustee or fiduciary for any party hereto; (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; (c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder (and shall not commence an action or proceeding on behalf of any Lender without obtaining the consent of such Lender thereto); and (d) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be -35- responsible for the negligence or misconduct (except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct) of or for the supervision of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. 10.02 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, email, telegram or cable) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, made or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent, as the case may be. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Majority Lenders, and such instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. 10.03 Defaults. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default (other than a failure to make a payment of principal of or interest on the Loans) unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives a notice of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 10.07 hereof) take such action with respect to any such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders, provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders. 10.04 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment and the Loan made by it, HSBC Bank USA, National Association (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 11.03 hereof, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under said Section 11.03) ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by the Lenders (or, if no Loans are at the time outstanding, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever (including without limitation legal fees and expenses) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent arising out of or by reason of any investigation in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that the Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 11.03 hereof, but excluding, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.05 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the repayment of the Loans and the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent. 10.06 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower and its own analysis of the Equity Contribution and the Acquisition and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the Notes. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower of this Agreement and the Notes or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates. 10.07 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 10.05 hereof against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. -37- 10.08 Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders at no cost to the Borrower other than the payment of the fees of any successor Administrative Agent. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank that has an office in New York, New York or London, England. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders' removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank that has an office in New York, New York or London, England and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and shall notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no removal of the Administrative Agent shall be effective until all amounts then due and owing to the removed Administrative Agent shall be paid in full. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. 10.09 The Lead Arrangers. The Lead Arrangers, in their capacity as such, shall not have any obligations or liabilities hereunder. SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS. 11.01 Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 11.02 Notices. (a) Subject to the provisions of clauses (b), (c) and (d) below, all notices, requests, instructions, directions and other communications provided for herein (including, without limitation, any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including, without limitation, by telecopy) delivered, if to the Borrower, to its address specified on the signature pages -38- hereto, if to the Administrative Agent, to its address specified on Schedule 1 hereto, or if to any Lender, to its “Address for Notices” specified opposite its name on Schedule 1 hereto; or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

Upon execution and delivery by the assignor and the assignee to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such Notice of Assignment, and upon consent thereto to the extent required above and recording of the same in the Register in accordance with Section 11.06(c) hereof, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the Loan (or portion thereof) assigned to it and specified in such Notice of Assignment (in addition to the Loan, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from any obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in connection with the Loan (or portion thereof) so assigned (and if so requested by the assignor and the assignee the Borrower will issue and deliver to the assignor and the assignee new Notes reflecting such assignment).

Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other obligations hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel), that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section 11.06(c). (d) A Lender may, in accordance with applicable Requirement of Law, sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons (each, a “Participant”) a participation in all or any part of the Loan held by it, or in its Commitment, provided, that such Participant shall not have any rights or obligations under this Agreement (the Participant's rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant). All amounts payable by the Borrower to any Lender under Section 5 hereof in respect of the Loan held by it, and its Commitment, shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in its Loan and Commitment, and as if such Lender were funding its Loan and Commitment in the same way that it is funding the portion of such Loan and Commitment in which no participations have been sold. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, or (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest.

No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. -43- (f) Subject to Section 11.19 hereof, a Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower obtained by such Lender hereunder from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants). (g) If, as the result of any assignment of all or a portion of the Loans of any Lender, or a change in such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, the Borrower shall be required to make payments under Section 5 hereof greater than the payments that the Borrower would have been required to make under said Section if such assignment or change in Applicable Lending Office had not occurred, the Borrower shall not be obligated to make any such greater payments unless (i) such greater payments result from a change in an applicable Requirement of Law occurring after the date of such assignment or change in Applicable Lending Office or (ii) the Borrower consents in writing to make such greater payments at or prior to the time of such assignment or change in Applicable Lending Office. 11.07 Survival. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 5.01, 5.04, 5.05, 11.03 and 11.06(c) hereof, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 10.05 hereof, shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the Commitments and, in the case of any Lender that may assign any interest in its Commitment or Loan hereunder, shall survive, in the case of any event or circumstance that occurred prior to the effective date of such assignment, the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease to be a “Lender” hereunder. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any Loan, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty. 11.08 Captions.

(c) Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve any such process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law.

EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY .JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 11.13 Waiver of Immunity.

This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York City is of the essence, and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes to each Lender or the Administrative Agent (in this Section 1l.14 called an “Entitled Person”) to make payment in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt of any sum adjudged to be so due in the judgment currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase, and transfer to New York City, Dollars in the amount originally due to such Entitled Person with the judgment currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (in this Section 11.14 called the “judgment currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Dollars at New York, New York with the judgment currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered.

FORM OF OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE

EXHIBIT E [FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COLOMBIAN COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER] Bogotá, D.C., December [ ], 2010 HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders party to the Loan Agreement referred to below 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Corporate Trust & Loan Agency Ladies and Gentlemen, We have acted as Colombian legal counsel for Banco de Bogotá S.A. E.S.P. (the “Borrower”) in connection with the Senior Bridge Loan Agreement among the Borrower, various financial institutions, as Lenders, and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Administrative Agent dated as of December __, 2010 (the “Loan Agreement”). This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to section 6.02(vi)(A) of the Loan Agreement. Terms not otherwise defined in this opinion shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement. 1. LEGAL REVIEW In connection with this opinion, we have reviewed the Notes, an executed copy of the Loan Agreement and the corporate documents of the Borrower and such other registration and related documents set forth in Exhibit I hereto. Finally, we have examined such laws and regulations as we have considered necessary for purposes of rendering this opinion letter. 2. ASSUMPTIONS In our examination, we have assumed: (i) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us for our review as originals; (ii) the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; (iii) that each of the parties (other than the Borrower) to the Loan Agreement has executed and delivered the Loan Agreement, with all necessary and appropriate powers and authority; and (iv) that each of the parties (other than the Borrower) to the Loan Agreement are allowed under the respective local applicable law to execute and deliver the Loan Agreement and have full legal capacity to enter into the same. FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COLOMBIAN COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

3. OPINION Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, as of the date hereof: (i) The Borrower is a financial institution duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Colombia and has full power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver each of the Loan Documents and to comply with its obligations thereunder. (ii) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each of the Loan Documents has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower. (iii) Neither the execution and delivery of any Loan Document by the Borrower nor the performance by the Borrower of its obligations thereunder will result in any breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, result in violations of, or contravene or constitute a default under (a) the by-laws of the Borrower or (b) any statute, rule, regulation, order or any applicable law of Colombia, including any regulation of the Banco de la República de Colombia (the “Colombian Central Bank”). (iv) Each of the Loan Documents constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms (subject to the validity and enforceability of such Loan Document pursuant to New York laws). (v) The Borrower has the capacity to xxx or be sued in its own name. (vi) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is entitled to xxx as a plaintiff in a Colombian court for the enforcement of their respective rights under the Loan Documents and such access to the courts of Colombia would be on the same terms as are available to residents and citizens of Colombia. (vii) The obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents to pay amounts thereunder constitute direct and unsecured obligations of the Borrower, which rank pari passu with certain other unsecured obligations of the Borrower (taking into consideration that certain unsecured obligations of the Borrower have legal preference in accordance with Colombian laws). (viii) Except for the registration with the Colombian Central Bank of the Loan Agreement and the disbursements thereunder according to exchange control regulations (which, pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Loan Agreement are required to be completed by the Borrower within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Borrowing Date), no authorization, approval, license, consent, filing or registration from or with any governmental authority or regulatory body of Colombia is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower of any of the Loan Documents. (ix) The submission by the Borrower to the law of the State of New York and the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts sitting in the Southern District of New York or the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms. However, it should be noted that any foreign judgment against the Borrower under the FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COLOMBIAN COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

Loan Documents is entitled to be recognized and enforced in a Colombian court through a procedural system provided for under Colombian law known as “exequatur”, subject to the provisions of Article 693 of the Colombian Civil Procedure Code which requires that there be reciprocity in the recognition of foreign judgments between the courts of the relevant jurisdiction and the courts of Colombia and subject to compliance with the provisions of Article 694 of the Colombian Civil Procedure Code. The pertinent provisions of such Articles, as they would affect a judgment obtained outside Colombia, are as follows: (a) the foreign judgment presented in Colombia for enforcement does not refer to in-rem rights on assets which were in Colombia at the commencement of the proceedings in the foreign court which issued the judgment; (b) the foreign judgment presented in Colombia for enforcement does not conflict with public order laws of Colombia; (c) the foreign judgment, in accordance with the laws of the country in which it was obtained, is final and a duly certified and authenticated copy has been presented to the court in Colombia; (d) the matter adjudicated in the foreign judgment is not a matter which is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Colombian courts; (e) no proceedings are pending in Colombia with respect to the same cause of action, and no final judgment has been awarded in any proceeding on the same subject matter and between the same parties; and (f) in the proceedings commenced in the foreign court which issued the judgment, the defendant was served in accordance with the law of such jurisdiction and in a manner reasonably provided to give an opportunity to the defendant for the defense of the action. The Colombian Supreme Court of Justice should not review the merits of the foreign judgment to the extent the foregoing requirements are met. For purposes of the reciprocity requirement mentioned above, there is no treaty between Colombia and the United States of America by means of which the two countries have agreed to recognize court decisions validly issued in the other country. Therefore, the existence of reciprocity between Colombia and the United States of America has been analyzed by the Colombian Supreme Court of Justice on a case by case basis and, in doing so, it has considered the following elements when deciding: (1) the New York State court that issued the relevant decision that is to be enforced in Colombia states that similar decisions by a Colombian court can be enforced in the State of New York; or (2) a lawyer admitted to practice in the State of New York files an affidavit with the Colombian Supreme Court of Justice stating that decisions such as that undergoing the exequatur proceeding may be enforced in New York courts if validly issued by a Colombian court. (x) It is not necessary (a) in order to enable any of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enforce its rights under the Loan Documents; or (b) by reason of the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Loan Documents, that any of them should be domiciled, resident, licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in Colombia. (xi) There is no income, value added, stamp, registration, excise, property, court or documentary or other tax, levy, assessment, impost, deduction, charge or withholding of any kind imposed by Colombia (or any municipality or other political subdivision or taxing authority thereof) either (a) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of any of the Loan Documents; or (ii) on any payment to be made by the Borrower pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, other than any such tax, levy, assessment, impost, deduction, charge or withholding imposed on any Person as a result of such Person being organized under the laws of Colombia or as a FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COLOMBIAN COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

consequence of (x) having a permanent establishment in Colombia to which income under any of the Loan Documents is attributable or (y) its Applicable Lending Office being located in Colombia. (xii) The Borrower is not entitled to any immunity from suit, execution, attachment, other legal process or jurisdiction of any court in Colombia, nor, under the laws of Colombia, from the jurisdiction of any foreign court, from set-off or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise). (xiii) No party to the Loan Agreement (other than the Borrower) is or will be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on business in Colombia by reason only of the execution, delivery, performance and/or enforcement of the Loan Agreement. The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and qualifications: The enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, restructuring, concordato, liquidation, moratorium, administrative intervention, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and is subject to statutory preferences granted under Colombian laws. In any proceeding in Colombia, service of notice to the parties thereto must be made in accordance with the provisions of the Colombian Civil Procedure Code. Contractual provisions regarding services of notice procedures will not be enforceable. In any proceeding in Colombia in which a law of a foreign country were to be applied, there should be evidence of the law sought to be applied, through a copy of such law duly issued and promulgated by the competent authorities, or when a written law does not exist, through the deposition or affidavit of two or more lawyers admitted in the relevant jurisdiction regarding such applicable law. The provisions of the Loan Agreement which deem certain determinations as conclusive may be reviewed in any proceeding in Colombia to determine whether in fact such determinations were correct. In accordance with Article 902 of the Colombian Code of Commerce, any nullification of a provision of the Loan Agreement would nullify the entire Loan Agreement if it is evidenced that the parties would not have entered into the Loan Agreement in the absence of such nullified provision. Under Article 392 of the Colombian Civil Procedure Code, any legal costs incurred in connection with court proceedings in Colombia would be limited to those costs ordered by the respective court. Any immunity which might in the future be available under Colombian law cannot be validly waived in advance. FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COLOMBIAN COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

For any proceedings in Colombia, Article 260 of the Colombian Civil Procedure Code and Article 823 of the Colombian Code of Commerce require that, with respect to an agreement drafted in a language other than Spanish, a translation into Spanish by an officially recognized translator be filed with the court in Colombia as the basis for enforcement. In the event of disagreement over the meaning of the translation, the Spanish official translation closer to the text in the other language will govern, rather than the original text, for purposes of such proceeding. According to Colombian laws, the laws applicable to a given agreement are those in existence at the time of execution, even if those laws change in the future, provided that the changes are not related to, or do not affect, public order laws, in which case public order laws become immediately effective. We consider Colombian exchange control regulations to be public order laws. Therefore, the ability of the Borrower to perform its obligations payable in foreign currency under the Loan Agreement (and the ability of any Person to remit the proceeds of any judgment award issued by a court in Colombia in foreign currency out of Colombia) will be subject to foreign exchange regulations in effect at the time of the relevant payment or remittance. Under Colombian laws there are no equitable remedies or injunctive relief, except for fundamental constitutional rights. Article 869 of the Colombian Code of Commerce provides that any agreement, including the Loan Agreement, containing obligations to be performed by the parties thereof in Colombia must be governed by Colombian laws, regardless of whether or not such parties are Colombian residents. However, pursuant to the provisions of Law 315 of 1996, any agreement to be performed in Colombia complying with certain international requirements defined therein, could be governed by the laws of a country other than Colombia, provided the parties thereto submit any disputes under such agreement to the forum of international arbitration. Our opinions set forth in Section 3(ix) above are based on our view that the Loan Agreement contains provisions that, if observed, will make the main obligations thereunder to be performed by the parties thereto outside Colombia and, therefore, neither Article 869 of the Colombian Code of Commerce nor Law 315 of 1996 should apply.

December [ ], 2010

To HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders referred to below Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as special New York counsel for Banco de Bogotá, S.A., a financial institution organized and existing under the laws of Colombia (the “Borrower”), in connection with the Senior Bridge Loan Agreement dated as of December [ ], 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the various financial institutions listed on the signature pages thereof (the “Lenders”) and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”). Terms used (but not defined) herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. We have reviewed executed copies of: (a) the Credit Agreement; and (b) the Notes issued on the date hereof (the “Notes”). The documents listed in items (a) and (b) above are sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Documents”. We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records and certificates of public officials and officers of the Borrower and have conducted such other investigations of fact and law as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion. In addition, we have relied as to certain matters of fact upon the representations of the Borrower contained in the Credit Documents. Based on the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that: 1. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each Credit Document require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body, agency or official under United States federal or New York State law and do not contravene any provision of applicable United States federal or New York State law, in each case that in our experience is FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL NEW YORK COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

normally applicable to banks that are not domiciled in the United States in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Documents. 2. Each Credit Document (other than the Notes) constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Borrower and each Note constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, in each case enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms. The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions and qualifications: (a) Our opinion in paragraph 2 above is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability, and may be subject to possible judicial actions giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights. (b) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provisions of applicable law on the conclusions expressed above or (ii) any provision of any Credit Document that purports to avoid the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provisions of applicable law by limiting the amount of the Borrower’s obligations. (c) We express no opinion as to any provision in the Credit Documents that purports to indemnify any Person for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. (d) We express no opinion as to provisions in the Credit Documents that purport to create rights of set-off in favor of participants or that provide for set-off to be made otherwise than in accordance with applicable laws. (e) We express no opinion as to provisions in the Credit Documents that purport to waive objections to venue, claims that a particular jurisdiction is an inconvenient forum or the like. (f) We express no opinion as to whether a United States federal court would have subject-matter or personal jurisdiction over a controversy arising under the Credit Documents. (g) We express no opinion as to the United States federal or any state securities laws. (h) The enforceability in the United States of Section 11.13 of the Credit Agreement is subject to the limitations set forth in the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976. (i) We express no opinion as to provisions in the Credit Documents which subject the Borrower to any claim for deficiency resulting from a judgment being rendered in a currency other than the currency called for in the Credit Documents, and we express no opinion as to (i) whether a New York State or United States federal court would render or enforce a judgment in a currency other than U.S. Dollars or (ii) the exchange rate that such a court would use in rendering a judgment in U.S. Dollars in respect of an obligation in any other currency. FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL NEW YORK COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

(j) We have assumed that (i) the Borrower is validly existing and, to the extent applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) the Borrower has duly executed and delivered each Credit Document, (iii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each Credit Document are within its powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Borrower and do not contravene the articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other constitutive documents of the Borrower and (iv) the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each Credit Document do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any law, rule or regulation (other than United States federal and New York State laws, rules and regulations, in each case that in our experience are normally applicable to banks that are not domiciled in the United States in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Documents) or any order, injunction, decree, agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound. (k) We express no opinion on the effectiveness of any service of process made other than in accordance with applicable law. (l) We express no opinion as to the effect (if any) of any law of any jurisdiction (except the State of New York) in which any Lender is located which may limit the rate of interest that such Lender may charge or collect. (m) As to various provisions in the Credit Documents that grant the Administrative Agent or the Lenders certain rights to make determinations or take actions in their discretion, we assume that such discretion will be exercised in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York and the federal laws of the United States of America. This opinion is delivered to you in connection with the above matter. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other person without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,
