Subject to the terms hereof, Applicant may request from time to time that the Applicable Rate be determined pursuant to either the secured pricing option (the “Secured Option”) or the unsecured pricing option (the “Unsecured Option”). Each election of a pricing option shall take effect on the date of issuance or Anniversary Date of a Credit, as the case may be, and shall remain in effect until the next Anniversary Date (or until termination, cancellation or expiration of such Credit, if sooner or if such Credit is not thereafter renewed or extended). In order to request the Secured Option, (i) Applicant shall deliver written notice to Bank not less than 30 days prior to the next scheduled Anniversary Date (provided that such notice shall not be required if the Secured Option will apply as of the date of issuance of the initial Credit), (ii) Parent shall execute and deliver to Bank the Security Agreement and any deposit account control agreement (a “Control Agreement”) required by Bank, and (iii) Applicant shall deliver to the deposit account subject to the Security Agreement (the “Account”) in a manner satisfactory to Bank cash collateral in an amount not less than 110% of the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the aggregate undrawn amount of all Credits then issued and outstanding (the “Required Balance”), and (iv) Bank shall have a valid, perfected, first-priority lien upon and security interest in the Account and such cash collateral as contemplated by the Security Agreement and any Control Agreement required by Bank.

Once the Secured Option applies, Applicant may thereafter elect the Unsecured Option upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Bank and subject to the terms hereof, and on the effective date of such election, Bank shall release its lien upon and security interest in the Account and cash collateral as provided herein and in the Security Agreement; provided that Applicant may not elect the Unsecured Option (and Bank shall not be obligated to release its lien and security interest) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. All Credits shall collectively be subject to only one pricing option at any time. For purposes

5

of calculating the Required Balance, Bank may determine its selling rate and make such calculation at any time and from time to time in its discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, Applicant shall be required immediately to elect the Secured Option, post cash collateral to the Account in an amount at least equal to the Required Balance, and satisfy the other conditions to the Secured Option set forth herein upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) Bank ceases to be a lender under the Senior Credit Agreement; (ii) an Event of Default occurs and is continuing; or (iii) Parent’s obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement are required to be secured by collateral.

Applicant shall pay all withholding, stamp and other Taxes imposed by any taxing authority on reimbursement or payment under any Credit and this Agreement, and shall indemnify Bank against all liabilities, costs, claims and expenses resulting from Bank having to pay or from any omission to pay or delay in paying any Tax save that such indemnity shall not apply to the extent a liability, cost, claim or expense relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by Applicant. “Taxes” means all taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings of any kind (other than federal and state income taxes and franchise taxes imposed on Bank).

(e) FATCA Deductions.

(i) Each party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(ii) Each party shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction) notify the party to whom it is making the payment.

(f) Automatic Debit and Set-Off. Bank may (but shall not be required to), without demand for reimbursement or payment or notice to Applicant, and in addition to any other right of set-off that Bank may have, debit any account or accounts maintained by Applicant with any office of Bank (now or in the future) and set-off and apply (i) any balance or deposits (general, special, time, demand, provisional, final, matured, unmatured, contingent or absolute) in the account(s) and (ii) any sums due or payable from Bank, to the payment of any and all amounts owed by Applicant to Bank.

(g) Obligations Absolute. Applicant’s reimbursement and payment obligations under this Section 2 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation:

(iii) Bank or any of its branches or affiliates being the beneficiary of any Credit;

(iv) Bank or any correspondent honoring a drawing against a Drawing Document up to the amount available under any Credit even if such Drawing Document claims an amount in excess of the amount available under the Credit;

(vi) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, Applicant or any other Person;

(vii) any insolvency or similar proceedings; or

(viii) any other event, circumstance or conduct whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing that might, but for this Section, reduce, release, prejudice, discharge, or provide a right of set-off against, the Obligations (as defined below), whether against Bank, the beneficiary or any other Person;

provided, however, that subject to Section 4(b) below, the foregoing shall not release Bank from such liability to Applicant as may be finally determined pursuant to Section 11 below against Bank following reimbursement and/or payment of the Obligations. “Obligations” means all obligations and liabilities, including without limitation, reimbursement and other payment obligations and liabilities, of Applicant to Bank arising under, or in connection with, this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 4 below, any Application or any Credit, whether matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent, now existing or hereafter incurred. “Person” means any natural person, corporation, limited liability company, trust, joint venture, association, company, partnership, governmental authority or other entity.

Applicant is solely responsible for the suitability of the Credit for Applicant’s purposes. Applicant will examine the copy of the Credit and any other documents sent by Bank in connection with the Credit and shall promptly notify Bank of any non-compliance with Applicant’s Instructions and of any discrepancy in any document under any presentment or other irregularity. Applicant understands and agrees that Bank is not required to extend the expiration date of any Credit for any reason, and with respect to any Credit containing an

“automatic amendment” to extend the expiration date of such Credit, Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may give notice of nonrenewal of such Credit and, if Applicant does not at any time want such Credit to be renewed, Applicant will so notify Bank at least fifteen (15) calendar days before Bank is required to notify the beneficiary of such Credit or any advising bank of such nonrenewal pursuant to the terms of such Credit.

4. Indemnification: Limitation of Liability.

(a) Indemnification. Applicant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Bank (including its branches and affiliates), its correspondents and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, including Bank, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all claims, suits, judgments, liabilities, losses, fines, damages, penalties, interest, costs and expenses (including expert witness fees and reasonable legal fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (including in-house counsel fees and allocated costs) and all expenses of arbitration or litigation and in preparation thereof), which may be incurred by or awarded against any Indemnified Person (the “Costs”), and which arise out of or in connection with, or as a result of:

(i) any Credit or any pre-advice of its issuance;

(ii) any transfer, sale, delivery, surrender or endorsement of any Drawing Document at any time(s) held by any Indemnified Person in connection with any Credit;

(iii) any action or proceeding arising out of, or in connection with, any Credit or this Agreement (whether administrative, judicial or in connection with arbitration), including any action or proceeding to compel or restrain any presentation or payment under any Credit, or for the wrongful dishonor of, or honoring a presentation under, any Credit;

(iv) any independent undertakings issued by the beneficiary of any Credit;

(v) any unauthorized Instruction or error in computer or electronic transmission;

(ix) Bank’s performance of the obligations of a confirming institution or entity that wrongfully dishonors a confirmation; or

(x) the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto governmental or regulatory authority or cause or event beyond the control of such Indemnified Person;

in each case, including that resulting from Bank’s own negligence; provided, however. that such indemnity shall not be available to any Person claiming indemnification under

8

clauses (i) through (x) above to the extent that such Costs are finally determined pursuant to Section 11 below to have resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Person claiming indemnity. Applicant hereby agrees to pay Bank on demand from time to time all amounts owing under this Section. If and to the extent that the Obligations of Applicant under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, Applicant agrees to make the maximum contribution to the Costs permissible under applicable law. This indemnity provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and all Credits.

(b) Direct Damages; No Punitive Damages. The liability of Bank (or any other Indemnified Person) under, in connection with and/or arising out of this Agreement or any Credit (or pre-advice), regardless of the form or legal grounds of the action or proceeding, shall be limited to direct damages suffered by Applicant that are caused directly by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in (i) honoring a presentation under a Credit that on its face does not at least substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Credit, (ii) failing to honor a presentation under a Credit that strictly complies with the terms and conditions of such Credit or (iii) retaining Drawing Documents presented under a Credit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Bank nor any other Indemnified Person shall, under any circumstances whatsoever, be liable in contract, tort or otherwise for any punitive, exemplary, consequential, indirect or special damages or losses regardless of whether or not Bank or any other Indemnified Person shall have been advised of the possibility thereof or the form of action in which such damages or losses may be claimed. Applicant shall take action to avoid and mitigate the amount of any damages claimed against Bank or any other Indemnified Person, including by enforcing its rights in the underlying transaction. Any claim by Applicant under or in connection with this Agreement or any Credit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (X) the amount (if any) saved by Applicant as a result of the breach or alleged wrongful conduct complained of; and (Y) the amount (if any) of the loss that would have been avoided had Applicant taken all reasonable steps to mitigate any loss, and in case of a claim of wrongful dishonor, by specifically and timely authorizing Bank to effect a cure.

Unless Applicant specifies otherwise in its Application for a Credit, Applicant agrees that Bank may issue a Credit subject to the ISP or UCP. Bank’s privileges, rights and remedies under the ISP and/or UCP shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, its privileges, rights, and remedies expressly provided for herein. The ISP and UCP shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of Standard Letter of Credit Practice with respect to matters covered therein.

(a) Bank shall be entitled to require the appointment of an agent for service of process in relation to Applicant and/or any Guarantor on terms acceptable to Bank.

(b) If Applicant or any Guarantor fails to appoint an agent for service of process or if any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, Applicant must immediately (and in any event within 15 days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to Bank. Failing this, Bank may appoint another agent for this purpose.

15. Waiver and Amendments. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by Applicant from, any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless made in a writing signed by Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Bank’s consent to any amendment, waiver or modification does not mean that Bank will consent or has consented to any other or subsequent Instruction to amend, modify or waive a term of this Agreement or any Credit. No delay by Bank in exercising any of its rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial waiver of any right or remedy preclude any other further exercise of that right or remedy, or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding on Applicant’s heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Bank’s successors and assigns. Bank may assign this Agreement and its rights to reimbursement regarding any Credit, in whole or in part, without Applicant’s consent. Applicant may not assign or transfer any of its interests, rights or remedies related to this Agreement or any Credit, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Bank.

19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of this Agreement.

18

20. Continuing Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if a Credit is issued in favor of a sovereign or commercial entity, which is to issue a guarantee or undertaking on Applicant’s behalf in connection therewith, or is issued as support for such a guarantee, Applicant shall remain liable with respect to such Credit until Bank is fully released in writing by such entity.

21. Joint and Several Liability. If this Agreement is signed by two or more Applicants:

(a) each shall be deemed to make to Bank all the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and each shall be jointly and severally liable under this Agreement; and

(b) each Applicant hereby waives any defense to its liability for reimbursement, payment and/or performance of the Obligations based upon or arising by reason of: (i) principles of suretyship or any disability or other defense of any other Applicant or any other Person; (ii) the cessation or limitation from any cause whatsoever, other than reimbursement and/or payment in full, of the liability of the other Applicant(s) or any other Person for the Obligations; (iii) any lack of authority of any officer, director, partner, agent or other Person acting or purporting to act on behalf of the other Applicant(s) or any defect in the formation of the other Applicant(s); (iv) any act or omission by Bank which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of the other Applicant(s) by operation of law or otherwise, or which in any way impairs or suspends any rights or remedies of Bank against the other Applicant(s); (v) any impairment of the value of any interest in any security for the payment and performance under this Agreement, including without limitation, the failure to obtain or maintain perfection or recordation of any interest in any such security, the release of any such security without substitution, and/or the failure to preserve the value of, or to comply with applicable law in disposing of, any such security; or (vi) any modification of the obligations or liabilities of the other Applicant(s) for the Obligations, including without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for reimbursement or payment of, or other change in the terms of, the indebtedness of any Applicant for the Obligations, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon.

Until all Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Applicant shall have any right of subrogation. Each Applicant hereby waives all rights and defenses it may have arising out of (A) any election of remedies by Bank, even though that election of remedies destroys its rights of subrogation or its rights to proceed against the other Applicant(s) for reimbursement, or (B) any loss of rights it may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of the other Applicant(s) in connection with any laws limiting, qualifying or discharging any Applicant’s indebtedness for the Obligations. Until all Obligations shall have been paid in full, each Applicant hereby waives any right to enforce any remedy which Bank now has or may hereafter have against the other Applicant(s) or any other Person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Bank. Unless otherwise agreed by Bank, Bank in its discretion may accept an Application or seek or receive Instruction from, or give or send notice to, any Applicant regarding a Credit, including, without limitation, any amendment thereto or waiver of any discrepancy thereunder, and until Bank at the office at which the relevant Credit is issued actually receives written notice of revocation, each Applicant shall be bound by and hereby affirms the Instructions of the other.
