Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any Revolving L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of a Revolving Borrowing as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its Revolving L/C Reimbursement Obligation with respect to such Revolving L/C Disbursement.

(ii) If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any DSR L/C Disbursement, the Borrower shall reimburse such DSR L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such DSR L/C Disbursement in Dollars, not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day immediately following the date the Borrower receives notice under paragraph (g) of this Section 2.05 of such DSR L/C Disbursement; provided that, so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(b), 7.01(c) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing, any DSR L/C Disbursement shall be deemed to be a request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and each DSR Lender of the applicable pursuant to Section 2.03 for revolving loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Borrower’s DSR L/C Reimbursement Obligation with respect to such DSR L/C Disbursement (each, a “DSR L/C Loan”) and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s DSR L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting DSR L/C Loan; provided, further, that such requested amount shall be reduced, if necessary, such that the aggregate amount of DSR Facility Exposure for such Tranche does not exceed the aggregate DSR Commitments of all DSR Lenders with respect to such Tranche. In accordance with Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent will promptly advise each DSR Lender of such Tranche of the details of such DSR L/C Disbursement and of the amount of such Lender’s DSR L/C Loan to be made as part of the requested DSR Borrowing. The DSR L/C Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.05(e) shall initially be ABR Loans. If the Borrower fails to reimburse any DSR L/C Disbursement when due as contemplated by this Section 2.05(e), then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank and each other DSR Lender of such Tranche of the applicable DSR L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower and, in the case of a DSR Lender, such Lender’s Facility Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable DSR Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, its Facility Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of each such DSR Lender), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars, the amounts so received by it from such DSR Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that DSR Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such DSR Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a DSR Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any DSR L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of a DSR Borrowing as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its DSR L/C Reimbursement Obligation with respect to such DSR L/C Disbursement.

(f) Revolving L/C Reimbursement Obligations and DSR L/C Reimbursement Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse Revolving L/C Disbursements and DSR L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any terms of any of the Transaction Documents,

(v) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom such beneficiary may be acting), the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, by any other Transaction Document or by any unrelated transaction, (vi) any breach of contract or dispute among or between the Borrower, the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, (vii) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any Revolving L/C Disbursement or DSR L/C Disbursement or any other act or omission of such beneficiary in connection with such Letter of Credit, (viii) any failure to preserve or protect any Collateral, any failure to perfect or preserve the perfection of any Lien thereon, or the release of any of the Collateral securing the performance or observance of the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (ix) the failure of any Lender to make a Revolving L/C Loan or DSR L/C Loan as contemplated by Section 2.05(e) or (x) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder; provided that, in each case, payment by the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrower that are determined by a court having jurisdiction to have been caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s refusal to issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination and each refusal to issue a Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile or other electronic transmission) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make a Revolving L/C Disbursement or DSR L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement (including by the making of a Revolving Borrowing or DSR Borrowing, as applicable), at the rate per annum then applicable to Loans that are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans, at the election of the Borrower; provided that if such L/C Disbursement is not reimbursed by the Borrower when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced with respect to the Revolving Facility or the DSR Facility or both, at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Facility or DSR Facility, as applicable, to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit under the Facility in which such Issuing Bank was replaced.

(j) Cash Collateralization. Each deposit of funds to a cash collateral account pursuant to Section 2.10(c) or Section 7.01 shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of (i) for so long as an Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent, and (ii) at any other time, the Borrower, in each case, in Permitted Investments and at the risk and expense of the Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the applicable L/C Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure or DSR L/C Exposure, as applicable,

at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.10(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.10(c) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the Administrative Agent designate one or more additional Lenders (in addition to MUFG, RBC, ING, BNP, SMBC, Mizuho, East West Bank and BMO) that agree (in their sole discretion) to act in such capacity and are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as Issuing Banks. Each such additional Issuing Bank shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement in such capacity upon the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.

(l) Reporting. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall (i) provide to the Administrative Agent copies of any notice received from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05(b) no later than the next Business Day after receipt thereof and (ii) report in writing to the Administrative Agent (who shall in turn promptly provide notice of the same to all Lenders in accordance with Section 9.17(b)) (A) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), and such Issuing Bank shall be permitted to issue, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit if the Administrative Agent shall not have advised such Issuing Bank that such issuance, amendment renewal or extension would not be in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, (B) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any L/C Disbursement, the date of such L/C Disbursement and the amount of such L/C Disbursement and whether such L/C Disbursement is a Revolving L/C Disbursement or a DSR L/C Disbursement, and (C) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, including prompt verification of such information as may be requested by the Administrative Agent.

(m) DSR Letter of Credit Pro Rata. The Borrower shall only request DSR Letters of Credit to be issued on a pro rata basis among the Issuing Banks with DSR L/C Issuing Commitments. The Administrative Agent agrees to make any drawings on any DSR Letters of Credit pro rata across all DSR Letters of Credits. For certainty, the DSR Facility is intended hereunder to be a non-fronted letter of credit facility, such that the DSR Lender with respect to any DSR Letter of Credit is the same entity as, or an Affiliate of, the Issuing Bank that has issued such DSR Letter of Credit.

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in Dollars, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Revolving L/C Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Depositary Account or Local Account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request (or by applying such funds in accordance with any funds flow memorandum delivered to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date and the Amendment Closing Date Funds Flow Memorandum delivered to the Administrative Agent on the Amendment Closing Date); provided that L/C Loans made to finance the reimbursement of L/C Disbursements as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans under the applicable Facility. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

Section 2.07 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request; provided that each L/C Loan shall initially be an ABR Loan. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect, in the case of a Borrowing, to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile (or other electronic transmission) to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election.

If any such Interest Election Request made by the Borrower requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period, the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing to a one-month Interest Period Eurodollar Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.08 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, (i) each of the Construction Commitments and the Vista Expansion Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Construction Maturity Date, (ii) the Term Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the earlier to occur of (A) the Term Conversion Date Certain and (B) the Term Conversion Date (after giving effect to any Term Loans required to be made on such date) and (iii) the Revolving Commitments and DSR Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments under any Facility; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments under any Facility shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $100,000 (or, if less, the remaining amount of the applicable Commitments) and (ii) (A) the Borrower shall not voluntarily terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Revolving Facility Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Commitments, (B) the Borrower shall not voluntarily terminate or reduce the DSR Commitments with respect to any Tranche if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of DSR L/C Loans in respect of such Tranche in accordance with Section 2.11, the DSR Facility Exposure for such Tranche would exceed the total DSR Commitments for such Tranche, (C) the Borrower shall not voluntarily terminate or reduce the Construction Commitments if the remaining Available Unused Commitments in respect of the Construction Commitments, together with the funds available under the Equity Commitment and funds on deposit in the Construction Account and the Local Accounts (other than for payment of O&M Costs), could not reasonably be expected to be sufficient to fund all remaining Project Costs through the Term Conversion Date, as set forth in a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and confirmed by the Independent Engineer and (D) the Borrower shall not voluntarily terminate or reduce the Term Commitments unless, after giving effect to any such termination or reduction, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Construction Loans and the Vista Expansion Loans and any remaining Available Unused Commitments in respect of the Construction Commitments and Vista Expansion Commitments shall not exceed the Term Commitments remaining after giving effect to such termination or reduction; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Term Conversion Date, the Borrower may reduce or terminate the Expansion Tranche Commitments from time to time in its sole discretion (a) if the Expansion Option under and as defined in the Diablo Base EPC Contract has not been exercised and can no longer be exercised and the EPC Option has not been exercised and can no longer be exercised or (b) if the Borrower certifies in writing to the Administrative Agent that the Loan Parties have sufficient funds (taking into account the available Equity Commitment, amounts on deposit in the Construction Account and the Local Accounts (other than for payment of O&M Costs), and remaining availability under the Construction Facility) to achieve Term Conversion notwithstanding such reduction or termination; provided, further that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to the Term Conversion Date, the Borrower may reduce or terminate the Vista Expansion Commitments from time to time in its sole discretion if the Borrower certifies in writing to the Administrative Agent that the Loan Parties have sufficient funds (taking into account amounts on deposit in the Construction Account and the Local Accounts (other than for payment of O&M Costs), and remaining availability under the Construction Facility but excluding the Revolving Facility and Project Revenues) to achieve Term Conversion notwithstanding such reduction or termination.

(c) The Borrower shall reduce or terminate the Construction Commitments and Vista Expansion Commitments (and related Term Commitments) in connection with any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(iv) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the applicable amount for such Project or such Guarantor as set forth on Schedule 2.11(b)(iv) (the “Target Disposition Commitment Reduction Amount”) and (ii) an amount such that the Loan

Parties shall have available funds (taking into account the available Equity Commitment, amounts on deposit in the Construction Account and the Local Accounts (other than for payment of O&M Costs) and remaining availability under the Construction Facility) the aggregate amount of which is equal to the Final Completion Amount (including contingency) as of the date of such reduction or termination, provided that such calculation (A) shall be certified to in a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce Commitments under paragraph (b) above at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this clause (c) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(e) Any termination or reduction of Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of Commitments under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments under such Facility and Tranche, as applicable.

Section 2.09 Repayment of Loans Generally; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay:

(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date;

(ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable DSR Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each DSR L/C Loan on the Maturity Date;

(iii) (A) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Construction Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Construction Loan, to the extent such Construction Loan was not converted to a Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.04, on the Construction Maturity Date and (B) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Vista Expansion Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Vista Expansion Loan, to the extent such Vista Expansion Loan was not converted to a Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.04, on the Construction Maturity Date; and

(iv) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan on such dates and in such amounts as provided in Section 2.10.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall retain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and Affiliate Lender Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(ii) or Section 9.04(e)(i), as applicable, and shall maintain a register (the “Register”) in which it shall record (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of each Lender, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Facility, Type and Tranche thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent and the account or accounts maintained by any Lender, the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent shall control, absent manifest error; provided, further, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower and the Lender Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 2.09(d) and Section 2.09(c) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or such regulations).

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to the Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0 or H-2, as applicable. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) substantially in the applicable form. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein.

Section 2.10 Repayment of Term Loans; Application of Prepayments.

(a) Subject to adjustment pursuant Section 2.10(c), the Borrower shall repay the Term Loans on each Quarterly Payment Date occurring prior to the Maturity Date, in the amount of 1.00% per annum of the total amount of Term Loans outstanding as of the Term Conversion Date, in each case beginning with the first full calendar quarter after the Term Conversion Date.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.11 Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments.

(i) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable (subject to Section 2.11(a)(ii)) notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans; provided that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period

Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Loans that are ABR Loans) accrued and unpaid interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof (or, in the event of a prepayment in full of the Construction Loans, the Vista Expansion Loans, the Term Loans, the Revolving Loans, the Revolving L/C Loans and the DSR L/C Loans, an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Loans being prepaid).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under Section 2.11(a)(i) if such prepayment would have resulted from, or been made in connection with, a sale of all or substantially all of the Borrower’s assets or the direct or indirect Equity Interests of the Borrower or a refinancing of all or a part of the Construction Facility, the Vista Expansion Facility, the Term Facility, the Revolving Facility or the DSR Facility, which sale or refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and on and following the Amendment Closing Date, no voluntary prepayment of any Construction Loans or Vista Expansion Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made unless a voluntary prepayment of “Construction Loans” under and as defined in the LeConte Credit Agreement is made concurrently on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and on and following the Amendment Closing Date, no voluntary prepayment of any Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made unless a voluntary prepayment of “Term Loans” under and as defined in the LeConte Credit Agreement is made concurrently on a pro rata basis. In connection with any of the foregoing, if a Eurodollar Loan or a “Eurodollar Loan” under and as defined in the LeConte Credit Agreement is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, a prepayment of any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16 and Section 2.16 of the LeConte Credit Agreement shall be made on the date of such prepayment.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall make the following mandatory prepayments and associated Cash Collateralizations of the Letters of Credit, in each case as set forth in Section 2.10:

(ii) If any Indebtedness shall be issued or incurred by any Obligor Party (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 6.02), the Borrower shall, on the date of such incurrence, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof in accordance with the Depositary Agreement.

(iii) On each Quarterly Payment Date (commencing with the first Quarterly Payment Date that occurs in the first full calendar quarter following the Term Conversion Date), the Borrower shall, on such Quarterly Payment Date, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans in an amount equal to the ECF Sweep Amount for such Quarterly Payment Date in accordance with the Depositary Agreement.

(iv) In the event that Term Conversion is not achieved by the Term Conversion Date Certain, the Gateway Project or the Diablo Project cannot satisfy all of the conditions precedent to the Term Conversion Date in Section 4.04, or for any other reason any Loan Party wishes to Dispose of the Gateway Project or the Diablo Project or a Guarantor (other than Vista or Holdings) on or before the applicable Date Certain for the Gateway Project or the Diablo Project or the Term Conversion Date Certain, then Borrower shall, substantially concurrently with such Disposal, (A) prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the applicable amounts for such Project or Guarantor as set forth on Schedule 2.11(b)(iv) in accordance with the Depositary Agreement and (B) distribute to Holdings, and Holdings shall distribute to LeConte, an amount equal to the applicable amount for such Project or Guarantor as set forth on Schedule 2.11(b)(iv) (such amount, the “LeConte Target Disposition Prepayment Amount”).

(A) any termination of all the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Loans and terminate all its outstanding Revolving Letters of Credit and/or Cash Collateralize such Revolving Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(j). If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay the Revolving Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Revolving Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; and

(B) any termination of all the DSR Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding DSR L/C Loans and terminate all its outstanding DSR Letters of Credit and/or Cash Collateralize such DSR Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(j). If as a result of any partial reduction of the DSR Commitments, the aggregate DSR Facility Exposure of any Tranche would exceed the aggregate DSR Commitments of all DSR Lenders under such Tranche after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay the DSR L/C Loans and/or Cash Collateralize DSR Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(vi) In the event of any reduction or termination of the Construction Commitments, unless the requirements of Section 2.08(b)(ii)(C) are satisfied, the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction or termination, repay or prepay all outstanding Construction Loans.

(vii) In the event of any reduction or termination of the Term Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction or termination prepay on a pro rata basis the Construction Loans and the Vista Expansion Loans in the positive amount (if any) by which the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the sum of (A) the Construction Loans and any remaining Available Unused Commitments in respect of the Construction Commitments and (B) the Vista Expansion Loans and any remaining Available Unused Commitments in respect of the Vista Expansion Commitments shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Term Commitments after giving effect to any such termination or reduction.

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Benchmark Replacement.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(iii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders and the Borrower without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (ii) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.14 including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Agreement and subject to applicable consultation rights set forth in this Agreement.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may (in consultation with the Borrower) modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may (in consultation with the Borrower) modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR.

(f) Market Disruption Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a) of this Section 2.14, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period (or the alternative rate as determined pursuant to clause (a)) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for an Interest Period with the duration of such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, facsimile or electronic communication as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for ABR Loans; provided, that, the Eurodollar Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Alternate Base Rate.

Section 2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate) or Issuing Bank;

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition (other than with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.17) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) to the Borrower or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) (in each case, other than with respect to or on account of Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.17), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or any of the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Promptly after any Lender or any Issuing Bank has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay

any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for such Lender’s loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurodollar Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth calculations of any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the next Monthly Payment Date; provided that such Lender shall have delivered such certificate to the Borrower within 180 days of the event giving rise to the amounts calculated therein.

Section 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Requirements of Law” includes FATCA and the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Requirements of Law. If any Requirement of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall, without duplication, indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, other than any amounts

described in clause (i) or (ii) arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Recipient; provided that if such Loan Party reasonably believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Loan Party to obtain a refund of such Taxes (which shall be repaid to the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.17(h)) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender result in any additional costs or expenses not reimbursed by the Borrower or be otherwise materially disadvantageous to it. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c)(iii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) of this Section) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii)

executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(iv)

to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Requirements of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. On each of the Closing Date and the Amendment Closing Date, each Foreign Lender that becomes a Lender Party on such date shall deliver such properly completed and executed documentation and information as will permit payment hereunder to be made without withholding of U.S. federal withholding tax.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect

to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) On or before the Execution Date, the Administrative Agent (and any successor or replacement Administrative Agent) shall provide to the Borrower (i) an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 or (ii) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a United States person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a United States person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the Borrower can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States.

(j) Each Lender Party agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.17(b) or (d) with respect to such Lender Party it will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to such Lender Party’s overall internal policies of general application and legal and regulatory restrictions) to avoid or reduce to the greatest extent possible any indemnification or additional amounts being due under this Section 2.17, including to designate another lending office for any Loan affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, cause such Lender Party and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.17(j) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender Party pursuant to Section 2.17(b) and (d). The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender Party as a result of a request by the Borrower under this Section 2.17(j).

(k) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender Party, the termination of all of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of L/C Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due. All such payments shall be made in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto, in each case subject to the terms of the Depositary Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of (i) principal or interest in respect of any Loan, (ii) L/C Reimbursement Obligations with respect to any Letter of Credit, or (iii) any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) FIRST, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) SECOND, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim, through the application of any proceeds of Collateral or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in the L/C Disbursements of other Lenders or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express

terms of this Agreement (including the application of amounts arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(e), 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) The Borrower shall, upon notice to the applicable Lender and Administrative Agent, at its sole cost and expense, be permitted to replace any Lender that (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, (ii) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification,

consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained therefor), with an assignee permitted under Section 9.04; provided that (A) such replacement shall not conflict with any applicable Requirements of Law, (B) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent any applicable assignment fee, (C) in the case of clause (iii), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement and the replacement Lender shall have consented to the amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver to which the replaced Lender did not consent, (D) in the case of clause (i), prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.19(a) that had the result of eliminating the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, and such replacement shall result in a reduction of payments pursuant to Sections 2.15 and 2.17, (E) the replacement assignee shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, and the replaced Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.16) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (F) in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.16 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (G) the replacement assignee shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, if such assignee shall become a Revolving Lender or DSR Lender, the applicable Issuing Bank to the extent required by Section 9.04, (H) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (I) the Borrower shall pay to the replaced Lender all amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, and (J) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower or any other Lender Party shall have against the replaced Lender.

Section 2.20 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurodollar Borrowings, as the case may be, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all such Eurodollar Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Section 2.21 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law:

(a) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted to the extent set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 9.08; provided, however, a Defaulting Lender shall retain its voting rights where its outstanding Loans or Commitments are being extended or increased, where payments of outstanding interest and principal are being reduced or waived, or where the applicable interest rate thereon is being reduced or waived.

(b) Subject to Section 2.21(d), any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender pro rata to any Issuing Bank hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Revolving L/C Exposure and DSR L/C Exposure, as applicable, with respect to such Defaulting Lender in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize pro rata the Issuing Banks’ future Revolving L/C Exposure and DSR L/C Exposure, as applicable, with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;

seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c) (i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any Commitment Fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Revolving L/C Participation Fees and DSR L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its applicable percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which cash collateral has been provided in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower.

(d) If the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Loan Parties while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(e) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no fronting exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender after giving effect thereto.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Lender shall be under any obligation to assume any Commitment or Loan of a Defaulting Lender.

(g) If a consent, waiver or vote of all Lenders is required for any action under the Loan Documents, or the consent or waiver of a Defaulting Lender is required pursuant to Section 2.21(a) or Section 9.08, then an affirmative consent, waiver or vote of the Defaulting Lender shall be deemed given if such Defaulting Lender does not provide a written response within twenty (20) days after the date of a written notice to the Defaulting Lender requesting such vote or consent.

(h) To the extent that any Issuing Bank receives notice in writing from any Lender that such Lender does not intend to comply with its funding obligations, it shall promptly forward a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

The Collateral Agent shall provide to the Secured Parties copies of the Flood Insurance Documents, to the extent received from the Borrower. The Collateral Agent agrees to request such Flood Insurance Documents at the request of any Secured Party. The Borrower and each other Loan Party shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with compliance with the Flood Insurance Laws, including by providing any information reasonably required by the Administrative Agent (or by any Secured Party through the Administrative Agent) in order to confirm compliance with the Flood Insurance Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower intends to construct a “Building” (as defined in 12 C.F.R. Chapter III, Section 339.2) in a special flood hazard area within a Mortgaged Property, the Borrower will provide advance written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of the planned construction commencement date, and, to the extent required by the Flood Insurance Laws at such time, will provide to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent the Flood Insurance Documents with respect to such “Building” on or prior to the date construction commences.

Section 5.20 Recovery Event; Performance Restoration Event.

(a) In the event that the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds with respect to any Recovery Event (the “Recovery Event Proceeds”) capable of being repaired is $10,000,000 or less, following delivery of a Recovery Event Certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, such amount shall be made available to the Borrower and shall be applied by the Borrower to the payment of the costs of repairing or restoring the damage to or destruction or loss of the affected Project. Following completion of any such repair or restoration, the Loan Parties shall be permitted to reinvest any excess amounts in deposit in the Recovery Event Proceeds Account in other assets useful in the business of any Loan Party and thereafter any remaining Recovery Event Proceeds shall be transferred to the Construction Account or, after the Term Conversion Date, the Revenue Account (or, in the case of the Vista Expansion prior to Vista Final Completion, the Construction Account) in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of such certificate, the Loan Parties shall be permitted to reinvest any excess amounts in deposit in the Recovery Event Proceeds Account in other assets useful in the business of any Loan Party and thereafter upon written notice from the Borrower to the Collateral Agent the Collateral Agent shall direct the Depositary Agent to transfer any remaining Recovery Event Proceeds and other amounts in the Recovery Event Proceeds Account related to the applicable Project which were not used for such repair or restoration to the Construction Account or, after the Term Conversion Date, the Revenue Account (or, in the case of the Vista Expansion prior to Vista Final Completion, the Construction Account).

(d) In connection with any Performance Recovery Event, following delivery to the Depositary Agent of a Performance Recovery Event Certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, amounts shall be made available to the Borrower or applicable Loan Party out of the Construction Account as specified in such certificate and shall be applied by the Borrower or such Loan Party to make payments in connection with any applicable Performance Restoration Action.

Section 5.21 Flood Hazard Determinations. The Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, (a) with respect to the Initial Mortgaged Properties, on or prior to the Closing Date, and (b) with respect to each other real property for which a Deed of Trust is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.10, on or prior to the date on which the Deed of Trust for the applicable Mortgaged Property is delivered pursuant to Section 5.10, (i) a completed “Life of Loan” Federal

If the Borrower receives notice of any Flood Redesignation with respect to a Mortgaged Property the Borrower shall, reasonably promptly thereafter, provide written notice of the same to the Collateral Agent.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is hereby expressly authorized by such Lender Party and Affiliate, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (i) to receive on behalf of such Lender Party and Affiliate all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans, all payments in respect of L/C Disbursements and all other amounts due to such Lender Party and Affiliate hereunder, and promptly to distribute to such Lender Party and Affiliate its proper share of each payment so received; (ii) to give notice on behalf of such Lender Party and Affiliate of any Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge acquired in connection with the performance of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder; and (iii) to distribute to such Lender and Affiliate copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Obligor Parties pursuant to this Agreement as received by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Neither the Agents nor any of their respective Related Parties shall be liable as such for any action taken or omitted by any of them except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation herein or the contents of any document delivered in connection herewith, or be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by any Credit Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements contained in any Loan Document. The Agents shall not be responsible to any Lender Party (on behalf of itself in its capacity as a Lender Party and, as applicable, an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty and, as applicable, and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) for the due execution, genuineness, validity,

156

enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or other instruments or agreements. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or refraining from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such instructions and any action or inaction pursuant thereto shall be binding on each Lender Party (on behalf of itself in its capacity as a Lender Party and, as applicable, an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty and, as applicable, and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty). Each Agent shall, in the absence of knowledge to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any instrument or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Neither the Agents nor any of their Related Parties shall have any responsibility to any of the Credit Parties or any other Person party hereto or to any other Loan Document on account of the failure, delay in performance or breach by, or as a result of information provided by, any Lender Party (in its capacity as a Lender Party and, as applicable, an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty and, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) of any of its obligations hereunder or to any Lender Party (in its capacity as a Lender Party and, as applicable, an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty and, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender Party (or any of its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) or any Credit Party of any of their respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith. Each Agent may execute any and all duties hereunder by or through agents, employees or any sub-agent appointed by it and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of such agents, employees or any sub-agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel selected by it with respect to all matters arising hereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel. Each Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) at any time to seek instructions concerning any action to be taken or not taken or right exercisable by such Agent under the Loan Documents.

Section 8.02 Nature of Duties. Each Lender Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) hereby acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. Each Lender Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) further acknowledge and agree that so long as an Agent shall make any determination to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document in good faith, such Agent shall have no liability in respect of such determination to any Person. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty), and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. Each Lender Party (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty) recognizes and agrees that none of the Arrangers shall have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender Party (in its capacity as a Lender Party and, as applicable, an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty and, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates in their capacities as an Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty), or shall have any functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities for acting as such hereunder. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees, and may consult with the applicable Independent Consultants in the exercise of such powers, rights and remedies and the performance of such duties.

157

Section 8.03 Resignation by Agents. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and approved by the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 45 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders with, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York and an office in London, England (or a bank having an Affiliate with such an office) having a combined capital and surplus that is not less than $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor bank, and upon payment of such retiring Agent’s charges and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.05 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 Agent.

Section 8.04 Each Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its Commitments and Loans, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Obligor Parties or their Affiliates as if it were not an Agent.

Section 8.05 Indemnification. Each Lender Party agrees (a) to reimburse the Agents, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Commitments hereunder (or if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements, as applicable)) of any reasonable expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders by the Agents, including reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower, and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower; provided that no Lender Party shall be liable to an Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or any of its Related Parties. This Section 8.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

158

Section 8.06 Lack of Reliance on Agents. Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.07 Loan Documents. Each Lender Party (and each Person that becomes a Lender Party hereunder pursuant to Section 9.04) hereby authorizes, directs and requires each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents (including the Intercreditor Agreement) to which it is a party on behalf of such Lender Party and agrees that such Agent may take such actions on its behalf as are contemplated by the terms of the Loan Documents.

Section 8.08 Collateral Agent.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Collateral Agent, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. The Collateral Agent may request that any Obligor Party or the Administrative Agent deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, which certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign such a certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. The permissive right of the Collateral Agent to take or refrain from taking action hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not be construed as a duty. Money held by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Collateral Agent shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Borrower. The Collateral Agent may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if, in its opinion, the taking of such action in that jurisdiction would be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or of the State of New York, it would otherwise render it liable to any Person in that jurisdiction or the State of New York, the taking of such action would require it to obtain any license or otherwise qualify to do business or subject it to taxation in such jurisdiction, it would not have the power or authority to take such action in such jurisdiction by virtue of any law in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York, or it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York that it does not have such power or

159

authority. Anything in this Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents notwithstanding, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for special, indirect, consequential or punitive loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of profit), even if the Collateral Agent has been advised as to the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an officer or officers of the Collateral Agent, unless it shall be conclusively determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Collateral Agent was grossly negligent or acting with willful misconduct in ascertaining the pertinent facts. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

(b) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and as otherwise specifically set forth herein, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty as to any of the Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, on the part of the Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any Obligor Party to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

(d) Any Person into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of the Collateral Agent shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document (including any facsimile or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons (without any duty (express or implied) of the Collateral Agent to verify the genuineness or correctness of any fact stated therein or propriety of the signatory or deliverer or otherwise the validity or enforceability thereof), and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by it. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases (including when any action by the Collateral Agent alone is authorized hereunder, if the Collateral Agent elects in its sole discretion

160

to obtain instructions from the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or the Required Lenders) be fully protected in acting or in refraining from acting hereunder or under any Security Document pursuant to the written instructions of the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties. Whenever in the administration of this Agreement the Collateral Agent shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Collateral Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon instructions from the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or the Required Lenders.

(f) The Collateral Agent may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any power or right unless it receives indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

(g) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, whenever reference is made in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement or such other Loan Document if it shall not have received written directions of the Administrative Agent, Required Lenders or the Secured Parties in respect of such matter. Further, the Collateral Agent shall be permitted to request that all instructions and directions of the Administrative Agent, Required Lenders or the Secured Parties provided to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the other Security Documents be in writing (and, in such a case, the Collateral Agent shall be excused from following any such instructions or directions that are not in writing). This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and is not intended to and will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto.

(h) The agreements in this Section 8.08 shall survive the payment in full of the Secured Obligations and the termination of this Agreement and the Security Documents and the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent and the exercise of Write-Down and Conversion Powers by a Resolution Authority.

Section 8.09 Removal of Administrative Agent. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and, subject to this Section 8.09, if at any time the Person serving as Administrative Agent is, in its capacity as a Lender, a Defaulting Lender, the Required Lenders may by notice to the Borrower and such Person and, subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a replacement Administrative Agent reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) the date that is 5 Business Days after the giving of such notice by the Required Lenders (regardless of whether a replacement Administrative Agent has been appointed); provided that, if no replacement Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders shall assume and

161

perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent (with Administrative Agent consents being treated as Required Lender consents) hereunder until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent pursuant to this Section 8.09. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any Affiliate Lender or Affiliated Debt Fund holds Loans or Commitments, no such Affiliate Lender or Affiliated Debt Fund, in its capacity as Lender, may act to remove any Person acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 8.10 Delegation of Duties. Any Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact appointed by such Agent. Any Agent and any such co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such co-agents, sub-agents and/or attorneys-in-fact, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent.

Section 8.11 No Risk of Funds. None of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be construed to require any Agent in its individual capacity to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.12 Lender ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Obligor Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one (1) or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments;

162

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (i) subsection (a)(i) above is true with respect to a Lender or (ii) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with subsection (a)(iv) above, such Lender further (A) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (B) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Obligor Party, that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

Section 8.13 Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated on its books and records by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

163

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party such Lender or Issuing Bank, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.13(b).

(c) Each of the Collateral Agent and each Lender or Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to the Collateral Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to the Collateral Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Lender at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may

164

specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine

165

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Obligor Parties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and each Issuing Bank and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the issuance of the Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by such Persons or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated.

168

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register.

Any agreement or instrument (oral or written) pursuant

169

to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (x) such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 9.04(a)(i) or clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) or (vii) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) that affects such Participant and (y) no other agreement (oral or written) with respect to such Participant may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Obligor Parties agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.17(g) as though it were a Lender.

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant, and the amount of each such Participant’s interest in such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed United States Treasury Regulations (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the applicable rights and/or obligations of such Lender under this Agreement.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

170

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Term Loans hereunder to any Affiliate Lender (including any Affiliated Debt Fund), but only if:

(i) the assigning Lender and Affiliate Lender (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) purchasing such Lender’s Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto (an “Affiliate Lender Assignment and Acceptance”) in lieu of an Assignment and Acceptance, and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment on the Register pursuant to Section 2.09(c) and no assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph;

(ii) after giving effect to such assignment, Affiliate Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) shall not, in the aggregate, own or hold Loans with an aggregate principal amount in excess of 25% of the principal amount of all Loans then outstanding (calculated as of the date of such purchase) (such percentage, the “Affiliate Lender Cap”);

(iii) (A) such Affiliate Lender (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) shall at all times be subject to the voting restrictions specified in Section 9.22 with respect to matters relating to the Loan held by such Affiliate Lender and (B) Affiliated Debt Funds shall at all times be subject to the voting restrictions specified in the last paragraph in Section 9.22; and

(iv) such assignment complies with the requirements set forth in Section 9.04(b)(ii)(C).

Section 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the Agents in connection with the administration of this Agreement (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral examination and the reasonable fees, disbursements and the charges for one local counsel in the State of California) or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the Transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by any Lender Party in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made or the Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Shearman & Sterling LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and counsel for the Collateral Agent and the Depositary Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel (including the reasonable and documented allocated costs of internal counsel) for the Arrangers or any Lender Party (but no more than one such counsel for each Lender).

171

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Arrangers, each Lender Party and each of their respective directors, trustees, officers, employees, affiliates, investment advisors and agents (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable and documented counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of any Letter of Credit or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (other than claims solely as between the Lender Parties); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are found in a final and non-appealable judicial decision to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable and documented counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (A) any Environmental Claim to the extent related in any way to the Obligor Parties, Projects or Sites, (B) any violation of or liability under any Environmental Law by any Obligor Party or otherwise occurring or existing at any Project or Site, or (C) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, in, under, on, to or from any Real Property, any property owned, leased or operated by any predecessor of the Obligor Parties, or, to the extent related in any way to the Obligor Parties, any property at which the Obligor Parties have sent Hazardous Materials for treatment, storage or disposal; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are found in a final and non-appealable judicial decision to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and hereby waives all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. The provisions of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Lender Party. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. This Section 9.05(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall be entitled to assume the defense of any action for which indemnification is sought hereunder with counsel of its choice at its expense (in which case the Borrower shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by an Indemnitee except as set forth below); provided that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to each such

172

Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the Borrower’s election to assume the defense of such action, each Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such action, and the Borrower shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel, if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Borrower to represent such Indemnitee would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Borrower and such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Borrower (in which case the Borrower shall not have the right to assume the defense or such action on behalf of such Indemnitee); (iii) the Borrower shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee to represent it within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the Borrower shall authorize in writing such Indemnitee to employ separate counsel at the Borrower’s expense. The Borrower will not be liable under this Agreement for any amount paid by an Indemnitee to settle any claims or actions if the settlement is entered into without the Borrower’s consent, which consent may not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unless such settlement is unreasonable in light of such claims or actions against, and defenses available to, such Indemnitee.

Section 9.06 Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank and each of their respective 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other indebtedness in whatever currency at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor Party, against any and all obligations of such Obligor Party, now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under such Loan Document, and although such obligations of such Obligor Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.21 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender Party agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after its exercise of any right of set off pursuant to this Section 9.06; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application.

173

Section 9.07 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY, SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 9.08 Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay of any Lender Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Obligor Parties and the Required Lenders and (y) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto and the Collateral Agent (as applicable) and consented to by the Required Lenders (except where the provisions of any Loan Document expressly provide otherwise and, for the avoidance of doubt, as contemplated by Section 12.7(b) of the Equity Contribution Agreement, for which no Lender consent shall be required) and otherwise in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) subject to Section 2.14, decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest (other than with respect to default interest) on, any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(ii) increase or extend any Commitment of any Lender or decrease the Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Commitments shall not constitute an increase or extension of the Commitments of any Lender or the extension or waiver of the payment of principal);

174

(iii) extend or waive any date for payment of principal of any Loan or reduce the amount due on any such date or extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan, L/C Disbursement or any Fee is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

(iv) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

(v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section 9.08, the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Closing Date);

(vi) extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that no such consent shall be required in connection with the specific Collateral released under a Permitted Project Disposition so long as the Permit Suit Resolution has occurred);

(viii) change the order of priority of payments set forth in the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement relating to application of proceeds, in any case, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

(ix) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class;

(x) amendments which only affect a particular Class shall only require the approval of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class; or

(xi) subordinate the Obligations hereunder, or the Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to any other Indebtedness or Lien, as the case may be without the prior written consent of each Lender;

175

provided, further, that no such agreement shall (i) amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or an Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Issuing Bank acting as such at the effective date of such agreement, as applicable or (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8.05 or Section 9.05 that affects the Collateral Agent or the Depositary Agent without the written consent of the Collateral Agent or the Depositary Agent, as applicable; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9.08 to the contrary, any amendment of the definitions of “Dates Certain”, “Diablo Date Certain”, “Gateway Date Certain” and “Diablo Expansion Date Certain” shall take effect when approved in writing by the Required Lenders. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section shall bind any assignee of such Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.08, the applicable Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) amend or supplement the Loan Documents without the consent of any other Lender Party (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, (ii) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Lender Parties, (iii) to make, complete or confirm any grant of Collateral or make equity contributions, in either case, permitted or required by this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any release of any Collateral that is otherwise permitted under the terms of this Agreement and the Security Documents, or (iv) to effectuate the intent of Section 5.10(g).

(d) Without the consent of any other Lender Party, the applicable Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local Requirements of Law to give effect to or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time any change in GAAP would affect any computation, basket or defined term set forth in any Loan Document, and the Borrower shall at such time or thereafter so request, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend the relevant provisions of the Loan Documents to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided that, until so amended, such computation, basket or defined term shall continue to be computed in conformity with GAAP but without giving effect to such identified changes to GAAP. Any amendment pursuant to this clause (e) shall not require the consent of any Secured Party other than the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable Requirements of Law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender or any Issuing Bank, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender or Issuing Bank in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender or such Issuing Bank on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation.

176

Section 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letters and any other fee letters entered into between an Obligor Party and any Lender Party or Arranger (or any of their Affiliates) in connection with the Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Subject to the last sentence of Section 9.04(a), nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.11 WAIVERS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

Section 9.12 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03.

Section 9.15 Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) The Borrower and each other Obligor Party and each Lender Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Lender Parties or any of the Obligor Parties, as applicable, of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Deeds of Trust) or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in each case sitting in New York City, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any other Obligor Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in each case sitting in New York City. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 9.15 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

Section 9.16 Confidentiality.

178

other than as a result of a disclosure by such party, (b) has been independently developed by such Lender Party without use of information provided hereunder or by violating this Section 9.16 or (c) was available to such Lender Party from a third party having, to such Person’s knowledge, no obligations of confidentiality to the Credit Parties, the Sponsor or any other Affiliate of the Credit Parties) and shall not use the same other than in connection with approval or administration of the Loans or otherwise reveal the same other than to its Related Parties with a need to know or to any Person that approves or administers the Loans on behalf of such Lender (so long as each such Person shall agree to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16 and such Lender retains liability for any breach by such Person of this Section 9.16), except (A) to the extent necessary to comply with law or any legal process or the requirements of any Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or of any securities exchange on which securities of the disclosing party or any Affiliate of the disclosing party are listed or traded, (B) as part of normal reporting or review procedures to Governmental Authorities or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, (C) to its parent companies, Affiliates, service providers or auditors (so long as each such Person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), (D) in order to enforce its rights under any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (E) to any prospective assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this Agreement (so long as such Person shall agree to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), (F) to its pledgees permitted under Section 9.04(d), (G) to the extent necessary and on a confidential basis, to its insurers, re-insurers and other credit support providers, and (H) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Interest Rate Hedge Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.16). In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose (A) the existence of this Agreement, (B) statistical data about this Agreement without reference to specific terms and conditions or persons except as contemplated in clause (C), and (C) the identity of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Financing Documents, and the Commitments.

Section 9.17 Communications.

(a) Delivery.

(i) Each Obligor Party hereby agrees that it will use all reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (A) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (B) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (C) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (D) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications

179

collectively, the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at the address referenced on Schedule 9.01. Nothing in this Section 9.17 shall prejudice the right of any Arranger, any Lender Party or any Obligor Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(ii) The Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at the email address referenced in Schedule 9.01 shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform (as defined below) shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(b) Posting. Each Obligor Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents advisors or representatives (each, an “Agent Party”) have any liability to any Obligor Party, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Obligor Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 9.18 Release of Liens. In the event that an Obligor Party conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of any of its assets (including Equity Interests in a Loan Party pursuant to a Permitted Project Disposition) in a transaction not prohibited by Section 6.04, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Administrative Agent) shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by such Obligor Party and at such Obligor Party’s expense to release any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such assets (including Equity Interests in a Loan Party). In addition, the Collateral Agent agrees to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the applicable Obligor Party and at such Obligor Party’s expense to terminate the Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents immediately upon the occurrence of the Discharge Date. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such assets shall no longer be deemed to be made with respect to, nor will it be applicable to, such assets once such assets are so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or disposed of.

180

Section 9.19 U.S.A. Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Obligor Party that pursuant to the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Obligor Party, which information includes the name and address of such Obligor Party and other information that will allow the Lenders to identify such Obligor Party in accordance with the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

Section 9.20 Scope of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document, certificate or instrument executed by any Credit Party pursuant hereto or thereto, none of the Lender Parties shall have any claims with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents against any Credit Party (other than the Loan Parties and Holdings), present or future holder (whether direct or indirect) of any Equity Interests in any Credit Party (other than any Loan Party’s Equity Interests in any other Loan Party and Holdings’ Equity Interests in Borrower), or, in each case, any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Obligor Parties), shareholders, officers, directors, employees representatives, Controlling persons, executives or agents (collectively, the “Non-Recourse Persons”), such claims against such Non-Recourse Persons (including as may arise by operation of law) being expressly waived hereby; provided that the foregoing provision of this Section 9.20 shall not:

(a) constitute a waiver, release or discharge (or otherwise impair the enforceability) of any of the Obligations, or of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, or provisions of any Loan Document and the same shall continue (subject to clause (e) below, but without personal liability of the Non-Recourse Persons) until fully paid, discharged, observed, or performed;

(b) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any lien or security interest purported to be created pursuant to the Security Documents (or otherwise impair the ability of any Secured Party to realize or foreclose upon any Collateral);

(c) limit or restrict the right of any Lender Party (or any assignee, beneficiary or successor thereto) to name (i) any Obligor Party or any other person as a defendant in any action or suit for a judicial foreclosure or for the exercise of any other remedy under or with respect to any Loan Document, or for injunction or specific performance, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment shall be enforced against any Non-Recourse Person, except as set forth in other provisions of this Section 9.20 or (ii) Sponsor or any other party to the Equity Contribution Agreement or any Capital Call Collateral Document as a defendant in any action relating to the Equity Contribution Agreement or such Capital Call Collateral Document;

(d) in any way limit or restrict any right or remedy of any Lender Party (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or successor thereto) with respect to, and each of the Non-Recourse Persons shall remain fully liable to the extent that it would otherwise be liable for its own actions with respect to, any fraud (which shall not include innocent or negligent misrepresentation), willful

181

misrepresentation, or misappropriation of revenues, profits or proceeds from or of any Project or any Collateral, that should or would have been paid as provided herein or paid or delivered to any Lender Party (or any assignee or beneficiary thereof or successor thereto) towards any payment required under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(e) affect or diminish in any way or constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any obligation, covenant, or agreement made by any Non-Recourse Person (or any security granted by any Non-Recourse Person in support of the obligations of any Person) under or in connection with any Loan Document or as security for the Obligations;

provided that, notwithstanding any to the contrary set forth herein, the exposure of Sponsor in respect of the Equity Contribution Agreement shall not exceed the Equity Commitment. The limitations on recourse set forth in this Section 9.20 shall survive the Discharge Date.

Section 9.21 Intended Third Party Beneficiaries. The Depositary Agent is an intended third party beneficiary of Section 8.05 and Section 9.05.

Section 9.22 Affiliate Lenders. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that, subject to Section 9.04, any Lender may assign its Term Loans and Term Commitments to one or more Affiliate Lenders or Affiliated Debt Funds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no Affiliate Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund), in its capacity as Lender, shall:

(a) have any voting or approval rights whatsoever under the Loan Documents (including for purposes of any action requiring the approval of “Required Lenders” or pursuant to Section 9.08) other than (i) the Commitments of any such Affiliate Lender may not be increased or extended, the maturity of the Loans of any Affiliate Lender may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of such Loans may not be reduced, the fees or premium of or due in respect of any such Loans may not be reduced, the principal amount of any of such Loans may not be forgiven, and the pro rata status of such Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Affiliate Lender and (y) any amendment, modification, waiver or other action that by its terms adversely affects any Affiliate Lender in its capacity as a Lender in a manner that differs in any material respect from, and is more adverse to such Affiliate Lender than it is to, other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Affiliate Lender;

(b) be permitted to require any other Lender Party to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) pursuant to or with respect to the Loan Documents (including in respect of exercise of remedies);

(c) be permitted, in its capacity as a Lender, to attend any meeting or conference call with any other Lender Party or any Obligor Party, to receive any information from any other Lender Party or any Obligor Party (other than the right to receive notices of borrowings, notices of prepayments, and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans and Commitments required to be delivered pursuant to the applicable Loan Documents) or have any rights of inspection or access relating to any Obligor Party; or

(d) be permitted to make or bring any claim, in its capacity as Lender, against any other Lender Party with respect to the duties and obligations of such Lender Party under the Loan Documents other than in the case of a material breach by such Lender Party to such Affiliate Lender (except with respect to any such breaches applicable to the Lenders generally unless the other Lenders have made or brought such claims).

182

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each applicable Affiliate Lender or Affiliated Debt Fund shall be entitled, in its respective sole discretion, to cancel or retire any Loans or Commitments held by such Affiliate Lender or Affiliated Debt Fund.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any Credit Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law, each Affiliate Lender (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) shall not have the right to vote in accordance with its discretion, but shall authorize the Administrative Agent to vote on its behalf as directed by the Required Lenders (and such Affiliate Lender shall grant to the Administrative Agent a power of attorney in furtherance thereof) and shall agree not take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in such proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party to which the Administrative Agent has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by the relevant Credit Party or any equity or debt financing to be made to the relevant Credit Party), including the filing of any pleading by the Administrative Agent in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as the Administrative Agent is not taking any action to treat such Affiliate Lender’s Loans in a manner that is less favorable to such Affiliate Lender in any material respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any amendment, modification, waiver or other action requiring the consent or approval of Required Lenders, Lenders that are Affiliated Debt Funds shall not be permitted, in the aggregate, to account for more than 49.9% of the amounts actually included in determining whether the threshold in the definition of Required Lenders has been satisfied. The voting power of each Lender that is an Affiliated Debt Fund shall be reduced, pro rata, to the extent necessary in order to comply with the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 9.23 Force Majeure. In no event shall any Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of any act or obligation hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, force majeure events beyond its control, including any provision of any law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war, other military disturbances or terrorism, earthquakes, fire, flood, sabotage, epidemics, pandemics, riots, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, labor disputes, acts of civil or military authority, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Board wire systems and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communication facilities or computer (software and hardware) services (it being understood that the Agents shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances).

Section 9.24 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

183

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 9.25 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

(a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Interest Rate Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(b) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

184

Section 9.26 E-Signature. The words “execution”, “execute”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in or related to any document signed or to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 9.27 Acknowledgements. Each of Obligor Parties hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) neither any Agent nor any Lender Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Credit Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Agent and the Lender Parties, on one hand, and any Obligor Party, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby among the Lender Parties or among the Obligor Parties and the Lender Parties.
