SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2011 (this “Agreement”) among the financial institutions from time to time parties hereto (such financial institutions, together with their respective successors and assigns, are referred to hereinafter each individually as a “Lender” and collectively as the “Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A. with an office at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx, 00000, as agent for the Lenders (in its capacity as agent, the “Agent”), and Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Westlake”) and certain of its domestic subsidiaries listed on Schedule 1 hereto, each with offices at 0000 Xxxx Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000 (each a “Borrower” and collectively, all Borrowers, including Westlake, the “Borrowers”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Westlake and certain of its domestic subsidiaries as borrowers, the Agent, and lenders party thereto entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 8, 2008, which amended and restated the Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2003 among Westlake, certain of its domestic subsidiaries as borrowers, the Agent and the lenders party thereto (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Westlake and other Borrowers have requested that the Lenders amend certain provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, and the parties have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement, in each case, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein; the rules of construction contained therein shall govern the interpretation of this Agreement, and all Annexes, Exhibits, and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Lenders, the Agent, and the Borrowers hereby agree as follows.

ARTICLE 1.

LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

1.1 Total Facility. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree to make available a total credit facility of up to $400,000,000 (as such amount may be increased or reduced from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the “Total Facility”) to the Borrowers from time to time during the term of this Agreement. The Total Facility shall be composed of a revolving line of credit consisting of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit described herein.

1.2 Revolving Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans and Notes.

(i) Amounts. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 8, each Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees, upon any Borrower’s request

from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date, to make revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrowers in amounts not to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Availability, except for Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances. The Lenders, however, in their unanimous discretion, may elect to make Revolving Loans or issue or arrange to have issued Letters of Credit in excess of the Borrowing Base but not in excess of the Maximum Revolver Amount on one or more occasions, but if they do so, neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of the Borrowing Base or to be obligated to exceed such limits on any other occasion. If any Borrowing would exceed Availability, the Lenders may refuse to make or may otherwise restrict the making of Revolving Loans as the Lenders determine until such excess has been eliminated, subject to the Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Agent Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2(i).

(ii) The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to each Lender requesting a note, a note, an amended and restated note, or a second amended and restated note, as applicable, to evidence the Revolving Loan of that Lender. Each note shall be in the principal amount of the requesting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Revolver Amount, dated the date hereof and substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”). Each Note shall represent the obligation of the Borrowers to pay the amount of the requesting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Revolver Amount, or, if less, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans to the Borrowers together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.1. The entire unpaid balance of the Revolving Loan and all other Obligations (other than Bank Products that the applicable Lender chooses not to terminate and indemnity obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement and are not due and payable at such termination) shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Termination Date.

(b) Procedure for Borrowing.

(i) Each Borrowing shall be made upon any Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a notice of borrowing in substantially the form of Exhibit D (“Notice of Borrowing”) and signed by Westlake, on its behalf and as agent for the other Borrowers, which Notice of Borrowing shall be received by the Agent prior to (i) 12:00 noon (Houston, Texas time) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans and (ii) 12:30 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the requested Funding Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, specifying:

(A) the amount of the Borrowing, which in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan must equal or exceed $5,000,000 (and integral increments of $1,000,000 in excess of such amount);

(B) the requested Funding Date, which must be a Business Day;

(C) whether the Revolving Loans requested are to be Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan);

(D) the duration of the Interest Period for LIBOR Rate Loans (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for an Interest Period of one month); and

(E) the Borrower or Borrowers which are to receive all or any portion of such Borrowing and the amount of such Borrowing to be advanced to such Borrower or Borrowers.

(ii) In lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowers may give the Agent telephonic notice of such request for advances to the Designated Account on or before the deadline set forth above. The Agent at all times shall be entitled to rely on such telephonic notice in making such Revolving Loans, regardless of whether any written confirmation is received.

(iii) In lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowers may also request Borrowings in accordance with any ancillary agreements entered into by the Agent and the Borrowers from time to time relating to borrowing procedures.

(iv) The Borrowers shall have no right to request a LIBOR Rate Loan while a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(c) Reliance upon Authority. Prior to the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent, a notice setting forth the account of the Borrowers (“Designated Account”) to which the Agent is authorized to transfer the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested hereunder. The Borrowers may designate a replacement account from time to time by written notice. All such Designated Accounts must be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. The Agent is entitled to rely conclusively on any person’s request for Revolving Loans on behalf of the Borrowers, so long as the proceeds thereof are to be transferred to the Designated Account. The Agent has no duty to verify the identity of any individual representing himself or herself as a person authorized by the Borrowers to make such requests on its behalf.

(d) No Liability. The Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrowers as a result of acting upon any notice referred to in Sections 1.2(b) and (c), which the Agent believes in good faith to have been given by an officer or other person duly authorized by any Borrower to request Revolving Loans on its behalf. The crediting of Revolving Loans to the Designated Account conclusively establishes the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Revolving Loans as provided herein.

(e) Notice Irrevocable. Any Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) made pursuant to Section 1.2(b) shall be irrevocable. The Borrowers shall be bound to borrow the funds requested therein in accordance therewith.

(f) Agent’s Election. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Agent shall elect to have the terms of Section 1.2(g) or the terms of Section 1.2(h) apply to such requested Borrowing. If the Bank declines in its sole discretion to make a Non-Ratable Loan pursuant to Section 1.2(h), the terms of Section 1.2(g) shall apply to the requested Borrowing.

(g) Making of Revolving Loans. If the Agent elects to have the terms of this Section 1.2(g) apply to a requested Borrowing, then promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or telephonic notice in lieu thereof, the Agent shall notify the Lenders by telecopy,

telephone or e-mail of the requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall transfer its Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to the Agent in immediately available funds, to the account from time to time designated by the Agent, not later than 2:30 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the applicable Funding Date. After the Agent’s receipt of all proceeds of such Revolving Loans, the Agent shall make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to the Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the Designated Account; provided, however, that the amount of Revolving Loans so made on any date shall not exceed the Availability on such date.

(h) Making of Non-Ratable Loans.

(i) If any Borrower requests a Base Rate Loan and the Agent elects, with the consent of the Bank, to have the terms of this Section 1.2(h) apply to a requested Borrowing, the Bank shall make a Revolving Loan in the amount of that Borrowing available to the Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the Designated Account. Each Revolving Loan made solely by the Bank pursuant to this Section 1.2(h) is herein referred to as a “Non-Ratable Loan,” and such Revolving Loans are collectively referred to as the “Non-Ratable Loans.” Each Non-Ratable Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Revolving Loans except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Bank solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Non-Ratable Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed $40,000,000. The Agent shall not request the Bank to make any Non-Ratable Loan if (1) the Agent has received written notice from any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 8 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (2) the requested Borrowing would exceed Availability on that Funding Date.

(ii) The Non-Ratable Loans shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.

(i) Agent Advances.

(i) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, (A) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article 8 have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans to the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed 5% of the Borrowing Base but not in excess of the Maximum Revolver Amount which the Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Revolving Loans and other Obligations, or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 13.7 (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that the Majority Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof.

(ii) The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.

(j) Increase in Commitments. The Borrowers may request an increase in the Commitments from time to time upon notice to the Agent, as long as (a) the requested increase is in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 and is offered on the same terms as existing Commitments, except for a closing fee specified by the Borrowers, (b) increases under this Section do not exceed $150,000,000 in the aggregate and no more than four (4) increases are made, (c) no reduction in Commitments pursuant to Section 3.2 has occurred prior to the requested increase, (d) the Agent shall have received certified copies of the resolutions of Westlake approving such increase in the Commitments, (e) the increased Commitments shall be on the same terms and conditions as the existing Commitments, (f) the Borrowers shall deliver any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Agent, and (g) the Borrowers shall pay, on demand, all fees and reasonable costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) paid or incurred by the Agent and the Arranger in connection with the increase in the Commitments. The Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of the requested increase and, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, each Lender shall notify the Agent if and to what extent such Lender commits to increase its Commitment; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment. Any Lender not responding within such period shall be deemed to have declined an increase. If Lenders fail to commit to the full requested increase, Eligible Assignees may issue additional Commitments and become Lenders hereunder. The Agent may allocate, in its discretion, the increased Commitments among committing Lenders and, if necessary, Eligible Assignees. Provided the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 are satisfied, total Commitments shall be increased by the requested amount (or such lesser amount committed by Lenders and Eligible Assignees) on a date agreed upon by the Agent and the Borrowers, but no later than forty-five (45) days following the Borrowers’ increase request. The Agent, the Borrowers, and new and existing Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents and agreements as the Agent deems appropriate to evidence the increase in and allocations of the Commitments. On the effective date of an increase, all outstanding Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other exposures shall be reallocated among Lenders, and settled by the Agent if necessary, in accordance with Lenders’ adjusted shares of such Commitments.

1.3 Letters of Credit.

(a) Agreement to Issue. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Letter of Credit Issuer, as requested by any Borrower, agrees to issue, and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it in accordance with this Section 1.3, for the account of any Borrower one or more commercial/documentary and standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) and the Agent agrees to provide credit support or other enhancement to a letter of credit issuer acceptable to the Agent, which issues a letter of credit for the account of any Borrower (any such credit support or enhancement being herein referred to as a “Credit Support”) from time to time during the term of this Agreement. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

(b) Amounts; Outside Expiration Date. A Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit and the Agent shall not have any obligation to provide Credit Support at any time if: (i) the maximum face amount of the requested Letter of Credit is greater than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility at such time; (ii) the maximum undrawn amount of the requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from the Borrowers in connection with the opening thereof would exceed Availability at such time; or (iii) such Letter of Credit has an expiration date less than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Termination Date or more than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance for standby letters of credit and 180 days from the date of issuance for documentary letters of credit; provided that

any Letter of Credit issued in connection with the IRBs may have an expiration date of not later than the Termination Date. With respect to any Letter of Credit which contains any “evergreen” or automatic renewal provision, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to any such extension or renewal unless any such Lender shall have provided to the Agent, written notice that it declines to consent to any such extension or renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer is entitled to decline to extend or renew the Letter of Credit. If all of the requirements of this Section 1.3 are met and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender shall decline to consent to any such extension or renewal.

(c) Other Conditions. In addition to conditions precedent contained in Article 8, the obligation of a Letter of Credit Issuer to issue any Letter of Credit and the obligation of the Agent to provide Credit Support is subject to the following conditions precedent having been satisfied in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Agent:

(i) The Borrowers shall have delivered to the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, at such times and in such manner as such Letter of Credit Issuer may prescribe, an application in form and substance satisfactory to such Letter of Credit Issuer and reasonably satisfactory to the Agent for the issuance of the Letter of Credit and such other documents as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the form, terms and purpose of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and such Letter of Credit Issuer; and

(ii) If a Defaulting Lender exists, no Letter of Credit Issuer shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit and the Agent shall not have any obligation to provide any Credit Support, until such Lender or the Borrowers have entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Agent and the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with the Defaulting Lender; and

(iii) As of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit, and no law, rule or regulation applicable to money center banks generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the proposed Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letters of Credit.

(d) Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(i) Request for Issuance. The Borrowers must notify the Agent of a requested Letter of Credit at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date. Such notice shall be irrevocable and must specify the proposed Letter of Credit Issuer, the original face amount of the Letter of Credit requested, the Business Day of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, whether such Letter of Credit is standby, commercial, or documentary, whether such Letter of Credit may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the Business Day on which the requested Letter of Credit is to expire, the purpose for which such Letter of Credit is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit. The Borrowers shall attach to such notice the proposed form of the Letter of Credit.

(ii) Responsibilities of the Agent; Issuance. As of the Business Day immediately preceding the requested issuance date of the Letter of Credit, the Agent shall determine the amount of the applicable Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility and Availability. If (A) the face amount of the requested Letter of Credit is less than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility and (B) the amount of such requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from the Borrowers in connection with the opening thereof would not exceed Availability, the Agent shall notify the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer and such Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date so long as the other conditions hereof are met. No Letter of Credit Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit without receiving prior notice or confirmation from the Agent that the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) are met.

(iii) No Extensions or Amendment. No Letter of Credit Issuer shall be obligated to extend or amend any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto unless the requirements of this Section 1.3 are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being requested and issued.

(e) Assumption of Risk; Rights of Letter of Credit Issuers.

(i) Assumption of Risk by the Borrowers. The Borrowers assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary. In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, none of the Agent, any Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Letter of Credit Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and a Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any Letter of Credit Issuer, the Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of the Letter of Credit Issuers under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative. The Letter of Credit Issuers shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit. Nothing set forth herein shall prevent the Borrowers, following reimbursement in respect of any Letter of Credit, from asserting claims against a Letter of Credit Issuer for any honor of any Letter of Credit constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(ii) Rights of Letter of Credit Issuers. In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Documents, a Letter of Credit Issuer shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by such Letter of Credit Issuer, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. A Letter of Credit Issuer may consult

with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. A Letter of Credit Issuer may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(iii) Account Party. The Borrowers hereby authorize and direct any Letter of Credit Issuer to name any Borrower as the “Account Party” therein and to deliver to the Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit, and to accept and rely upon the Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor.

(f) Reimbursement; Participations.

(i) If any Letter of Credit Issuer honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall pay to such Letter of Credit Issuer, on the same day (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by such Letter of Credit Issuer under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by the Borrowers. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse a Letter of Credit Issuer for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not the Borrowers submit a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due a Letter of Credit Issuer on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Article 8 are satisfied.

(ii) Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata Share interest and participation in all Letter of Credit Obligations relating to such Letter of Credit. If a Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and the Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, the Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and each Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the benefit of such Letter of Credit Issuer, the Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment. Upon request by a Lender, a Letter of Credit Issuer shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and Letter of Credit Documents in its possession at such time.

(iii) The obligation of each Lender to make payments to the Agent for the account of a Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with such Letter of Credit Issuer’s payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged,

fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations. The Letter of Credit Issuers do not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any Letter of Credit Documents. The Letter of Credit Issuers do not make to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, the Letter of Credit Documents or any Account Party. The Letter of Credit Issuers shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Account Party.

(iv) No Letter of Credit Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any Letter of Credit Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. A Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any liability to any Lender if such Letter of Credit Issuer refrains from any action under a Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Required Lenders.

(g) Supporting Letter of Credit; Cash Collateral. (i) If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.3(b) and Section 10.1, any Letter of Credit or Credit Support is outstanding upon the termination of this Agreement, then upon such termination the Borrowers shall deposit with the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit or Credit Support then outstanding, a standby letter of credit (a “Supporting Letter of Credit”) in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, issued by an issuer satisfactory to the Agent in an amount equal to the greatest amount for which such Letter of Credit or such Credit Support may be drawn plus any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit or such Credit Support, under which Supporting Letter of Credit the Agent is entitled to draw amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for payments to be made by the Agent and the Lenders under such Letter of Credit or Credit Support and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit or Credit Support. Such Supporting Letter of Credit shall be held by the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, as security for, and to provide for the payment of, the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit or such Credit Support remaining outstanding. In the event Supporting Letters of Credit are not delivered, then the Loan Parties shall provide cash collateral for all remaining Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 110% of the aggregate face amount of such Letters of Credit. (ii) If a Defaulting Lender exists, the Borrowers shall, on demand by any Letter of Credit Issuer or the Agent from time to time, cash collateralize the Pro Rata Share of any Defaulting Lender of the Letter of Credit Obligations.

(h) Auto-Reinstatement Letters of Credit. The Lenders acknowledge that the Letter of Credit issued by the Bank in connection with the IRBs (as amended, renewed, replaced, and extended from time to time, the “IRB L/C”) permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder. Unless otherwise directed by the Bank, no Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to the Bank to permit such reinstatement. The Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Bank to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of the IRB L/C.

(i) Additional Letter of Credit Issuers. The Borrowers and all Additional Letter of Credit Issuers shall comply with all terms and conditions relating to Letters of Credit set forth in this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 1.3(d)(i) above. Each Additional Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly provide to the Agent a copy of all original Letters of Credit issued by such Additional Letter of Credit Issuer, and all renewals, extensions, amendments, modifications, cancellations, or draws thereof. Each Additional Letter of Credit Issuer shall only issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with this Section 1.3.

(j) Resignation of Letter of Credit Issuer. Any Letter of Credit Issuer may resign at any time upon notice to the Agent and the Borrowers. On the effective date of such resignation, such Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and obligations of a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, including under Sections 1.3 and 13.11, relating to any Letter of Credit issued prior to such date. The Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Letter of Credit Issuer, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrowers.

1.4 Bank Products. The Loan Parties and their Affiliates (including Westlake Veba Trust) may request and the Agent or Lenders may, in their sole and absolute discretion, arrange for the Loan Parties and their Affiliates (including Westlake Veba Trust) to obtain from the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliates or the Lenders or the Lenders’ Affiliates, Bank Products, although the Loan Parties and their Affiliates (including Westlake Veba Trust) are not required to do so. If Bank Products are provided by an Affiliate of the Bank, any Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the Loan Parties agree to indemnify and hold the Agent, the Bank, the Lenders, and their respective Affiliates harmless from any and all costs and obligations now or hereafter incurred by the Agent, the Bank, or any of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates which arise from any indemnity given by the Agent, its Affiliates, or the Lenders or their respective Affiliates related to such Bank Products; provided, however, nothing contained herein is intended to limit any Loan Party’s rights, with respect to the Bank, any Lender or their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, which relate to the Bank Products or the provision of the Bank Products pursuant thereto. The agreement contained in this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of Bank Products from the Bank, any Lender or their respective Affiliates (a) is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of the Bank, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates.

ARTICLE 2.

INTEREST AND FEES

2.1 Interest.

(a) Interest Rates. All outstanding Revolving Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (including, to the extent permitted by law, on interest thereon not paid when due) from the date made until paid in full in cash at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin, but not to exceed the Maximum Rate. If at any time Revolving Loans are outstanding with respect to which the Borrowers have not delivered to the Agent a notice specifying the basis for determining the interest rate applicable thereto in accordance herewith, those Revolving Loans shall bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate (unless the Default Rate has been effected by the Agent and the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 2.1(b)) until notice to the contrary has been given to the Agent in accordance with this Agreement and such notice has become effective. Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding Revolving Loans shall bear interest as follows:

(i) For all Base Rate Loans at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) For all LIBOR Rate Loans at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Each change in the Base Rate shall be reflected in the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of such change. All interest charges for LIBOR Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). All interest charges for Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and for actual days elapsed. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, interest accrued on all Base Rate Loans in arrears on the first day of each month hereafter and on the Termination Date. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, interest on all LIBOR Rate Loans in arrears on each LIBOR Interest Payment Date.

(b) Default Rate. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Agent or the Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, then, while any such Event of Default is continuing, (i) the principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto; (ii) the Letter of Credit Fee shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto; and (iii) any other amount (other than principal of any Revolving Loan and the Letter of Credit Fee) payable by the Borrowers under any Loan Document shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.

2.2 Continuation and Conversion Elections.

(a) The Borrowers may:

(i) elect, as of any Business Day, in the case of Base Rate Loans, to convert any Base Rate Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $5,000,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) into LIBOR Rate Loans; or

(ii) elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Rate Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $1,000,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof);

provided, that if at any time the aggregate amount of LIBOR Rate Loans in respect of any Borrowing is reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than $1,000,000, such LIBOR Rate Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans; provided further that if the notice shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.

(b) Westlake, on its behalf and as agent for the other Borrowers, shall deliver a notice of continuation/conversion (“Notice of Continuation/Conversion”) to the Agent not later than 12:00 noon (Houston, Texas time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the Continuation/Conversion Date, if the Revolving Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Rate Loans and specifying:

(i) the proposed Continuation/Conversion Date;

(ii) the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;

(iii) the type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(iv) the duration of the requested Interest Period, provided, however, the Borrowers may not select an Interest Period that ends after the Stated Termination Date.

(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrowers have failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period.

(d) The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Continuation/Conversion. All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans with respect to which the notice was given held by each Lender.

(e) There may not be more than twelve (12) different LIBOR Rate Loans in effect hereunder at any time.

2.3 Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder (including any fees or other fees or other compensation which are deemed or determined to be interest) exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable by any Lender under applicable law for such Lender with respect to loans of the type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, for any period, any interest, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that period shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future periods, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 2.3, have been paid or accrued if the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrowers such excess.

2.4 Closing Fee. Borrowers shall pay the Agent for its account the fees described in the Fee Letter (the “Closing Fee”).

2.5 Unused Line Fee. On the first day of each month hereafter and on the Termination Date, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin for Unused Line Fee times the amount by which the Maximum Revolver Amount exceeded the sum of the average daily outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and the average daily undrawn face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, during the immediately preceding month or shorter period if calculated for the first month hereafter or on the Termination Date. The Unused Line Fee shall be

computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. All principal payments received by the Agent shall be deemed to be credited to the Borrowers’ Loan Account immediately upon receipt for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to this Section 2.5.

2.6 Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay (a) to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, for each Letter of Credit, a per annum fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans multiplied by the stated amount of each Letter of Credit, (b) on the date of issuance of any Letter of Credit, to the Agent for the benefit of the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, a fronting fee of one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit, and (c) on the date of issuance of any Letter of Credit, to the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, all out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses incurred by such Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the application for, processing of, issuance of, or amendment to any Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month following any month in which a Letter of Credit is outstanding and on the Termination Date. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

ARTICLE 3.

PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

3.1 Revolving Loans. The Borrowers shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on the Termination Date. The Borrowers may prepay Revolving Loans at any time, and reborrow subject to the terms of this Agreement. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon demand, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for account of the Lenders, the amount, without duplication, by which the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceeds the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Revolver Amount.

3.2 Full or Partial Termination of Facility.

(a) Termination of Facility. The Borrowers may terminate this Agreement upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Agent in its sole discretion) to the Agent, upon Full Payment of all Obligations (other than Bank Products that the applicable Lender chooses not to terminate and indemnity obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement and are not due and payable at such termination). On the effective date of termination of this Agreement, any Lender may terminate its and its Affiliates’ Bank Products.

(b) Partial Reduction of Facility. The Borrowers may permanently reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount in increments of $25,000,000 but in no event shall the Maximum Revolver Amount be less than $300,000,000 (the amount of such reduction, the “Partial Termination Amount”) upon at least ten (10) days’ notice to the Agent, upon the payment in full of any Revolving Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, to the extent such Revolving Loans exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount (after giving effect to such reduction). Once reduced in accordance with this Section 3.2(b), the Maximum Revolver Amount may not be increased.

3.3 Prepayments of the Loans.

(a) To the extent set forth in this Section 3.3(a), immediately upon receipt by any Loan Party of proceeds from the sale of any Collateral (other than sales of Inventory in the ordinary course of business), the Borrowers shall prepay the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all such proceeds, net of (i) commissions and other reasonable and customary

transaction costs, fees, and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by such Loan Party in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (ii) transfer taxes, and (iii) appropriate amounts required to be reserved (in accordance with GAAP) for post-closing adjustments by any Loan Party in connection with such transaction, against any liabilities retained by any Loan Party after such transaction, which liabilities are associated with the asset or assets sold (“Net Sale Proceeds”). No payment from the Net Sale Proceeds shall be required hereunder to the extent Availability exceeds the amount of Revolving Loans outstanding on such date of determination. In addition, 100% of the Net Sale Proceeds shall be deducted from the calculation of the Borrowing Base, but such reduction shall not be deemed to be a permanent reduction of the Maximum Revolver Amount.

(b) Prepayments from the proceeds of all dispositions of Collateral in accordance with Section 3.3(a) shall be applied as follows: first, to accrued interest with respect to the Revolving Loans, second, to pay the principal of the Revolving Loans, and third to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit.

3.4 LIBOR Rate Loan Prepayments. In connection with any prepayment, if any LIBOR Rate Loans are prepaid prior to the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders the amounts described in Section 4.4.

3.5 Payments by the Borrowers.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without set off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, at the account designated by the Agent and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (Houston, Texas time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by the Agent after such time shall be deemed (for purposes of calculating interest only) to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period,” whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

3.6 Payments as Revolving Loans. At the election of the Agent, all payments of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit and Credit Support, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses and other sums payable hereunder, may be paid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans made hereunder. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to charge the Loan Account for the purpose of paying all amounts from time to time due hereunder (without regard to any grace periods hereunder, including, without limitation, Loans that constitute Agent Advances) and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Revolving Loans (including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances).

3.7 Apportionment, Application and Reversal of Payments. Principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably among the Lenders, except for fees payable solely to the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuers and except as provided in Section 11.1(b) or 12.14(e). All payments shall be remitted to the Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral received by the

Agent following the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default shall be applied, ratably, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent from the Borrowers (other than any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements arising under any Bank Product); second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers (other than any fees or expense arising from any Bank Product); third, to pay interest due in respect of all Loans, including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay principal of the Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances; fifth, to pay or prepay principal of the Revolving Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances), unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, and Pari Passu Bank Product Obligations; sixth, to pay an amount to the Agent equal to all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations; and seventh, to the payment of any other Obligations including any amounts relating to Bank Products due to the Agent, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates by the Borrowers that are not Pari Passu Bank Product Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrowers, or unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payments which it receives to any LIBOR Rate Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Rate Loan, or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans and, in any event, the Borrowers shall pay LIBOR breakage losses in accordance with Section 4.4. To the extent not inconsistent with the express terms of this Agreement, the Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations.

3.8 Indemnity for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Agent, any Lender, the Bank or any Affiliate of the Bank is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Agent or such Lender and the Borrowers shall be liable to pay to the Agent and the Lenders, and hereby do indemnify the Agent and the Lenders and hold the Agent and the Lenders harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 3.8 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 3.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

3.9 Agent’s and Lenders’ Books and Records; Monthly Statements. The Agent shall record the principal amount of the Revolving Loans owing to each Lender, the undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of unpaid reimbursement obligations outstanding with respect to the Letters of Credit from time to time on its books. In addition, each Lender may note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Lender’s Loans in its books and records. Failure by the Agent or any Lender to make such notation shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers with respect to the Revolving Loans or the Letters of Credit. Each Borrower agrees that the Agent’s and each Lender’s books and records showing the Obligations and the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be admissible in any action or proceeding arising therefrom, and shall constitute rebuttably presumptive proof thereof, absent manifest error, irrespective of whether any Obligation is also evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument. The Agent will provide to the Borrowers a monthly statement of Revolving Loans, payments, and other transactions pursuant to this Agreement. Such statement shall be deemed correct, accurate, and binding

on the Borrowers and an account stated (except for reversals and reapplications of payments made as provided in Section 3.7 and corrections of errors discovered by the Agent), unless the Borrowers notify the Agent in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after such statement is received. In the event a timely written notice of objections is given by the Borrowers, only the items to which exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed by the Borrowers.

ARTICLE 4.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

4.1 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party on account of any Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if a Loan Party or the Agent shall be required by the applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Agent, any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; (ii) the applicable Loan Party or the Agent shall make such deductions; and (iii) the applicable Loan Party or the Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirement of Law. Without limiting the foregoing, the applicable Loan Party shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities.

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse the Agent, the Lenders, and any Letter of Credit Issuer, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Agent, any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to any Obligations, Letters of Credit or Loan Documents, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail (without disclosing any business or confidential information) the calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Westlake by a Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower, Westlake shall deliver to the Agent a receipt issued by the Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Loan Parties shall not indemnify any Person for Excluded Taxes.

(c) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Loan Party is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall promptly deliver to the Agent and Westlake, at the time or times prescribed by Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or Westlake, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Requirement of Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Agent or Westlake, shall promptly deliver such other documentation prescribed by Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or Westlake as will enable the Agent and Westlake to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, (i) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Agent and Westlake, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, duly completed copies of a then effective IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or Westlake to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; (ii) a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Agent and Westlake on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, whichever of the following is applicable: (A) duly completed copies of a then effective IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (B) duly completed copies of a then effective IRS Form W-8ECI; (C) duly completed copies of a then effective IRS Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documents; (D) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (1) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Obligor within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (2) duly completed copies of a then effective IRS Form W-8BEN; or (E) any other form prescribed by Requirement of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax, duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Requirement of Law to permit Borrowers to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and (iii) 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 Westlake and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Westlake or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Requirement of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Westlake or the Agent as may be necessary for Westlake and the 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 to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(e) Each Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify Westlake and the Agent of any change in circumstances that would change any claimed exemption or reduction or otherwise render the documentation provided under Section 4.1(d) obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect and shall, promptly upon reasonable request by the Agent or Westlake, provide updated documentation under Section 4.1(d). Each Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within ten (10) days after demand therefor) the Loan Parties and the Agent for any Taxes, losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or asserted against a Loan Party or the Agent by any Governmental Authority due to such Lender’s or such Letter of Credit Issuer’s failure to deliver, or inaccuracy or deficiency in, any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to this Section. Each Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer authorizes the Agent to set off any amounts due to the Agent under this Section against any amounts payable to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer under any Loan Document. This Section shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations, or any resignation or replacement of the Agent, any Lender, or any Letter of Credit Issuer.

(f) If the Agent, any Lender, or any Letter of Credit Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party, or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent, such Lender, or such Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Agent, such Lender, or such Letter of Credit Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent, such Lender, or such Letter of Credit Issuer if the Agent, such Lender, or such Letter of Credit Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Agent, any Lender, or any Letter of Credit Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

4.2 Illegality.

(a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by that Lender to the Borrowers through the Agent together with an explanation of the circumstances, any obligation of that Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until that Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay in full such LIBOR Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if that Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if that Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans and if applicable convert to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers are required to so prepay any LIBOR Rate Loans, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrowers shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such prepayment, a Base Rate Loan.

4.3 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR Rate) or any Letter of Credit Issuer;

(ii) subject any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer to any Tax with respect to any Revolving Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit, Credit Support or participation in Letters of Credit or Credit Support, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such

Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 4.1 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by, or imposed with respect to payments to, such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost, or expense affecting any Revolving Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit, Credit Support, participation in Letters of Credit or Credit Support, or Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan or Commitment, or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or Credit Support, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrowers will, within ten (10) days of receipt of the certificate delivered by the Agent under Section 4.6, pay to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Letter of Credit Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, such Letter of Credit Issuer’s or holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or such Letter of Credit Issuer’s Commitments, Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit, Credit Support, or participations in Letters of Credit or Credit Support, to a level below that which such Lender, such Letter of Credit Issuer or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such Letter of Credit Issuer’s and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered, in each case, within ten (10) days of receipt of the certificate delivered under Section 4.6.

4.4 Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) the Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Rate Loan when required hereunder, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 4.9, then the Borrowers shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of the certificate delivered under Section 4.6, pay to the Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all losses and expenses that it sustains as a consequence thereof, including any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds. Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or any other offshore Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Rate Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Rate Loans.

4.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If Required Lenders notify the Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Rate Loan

that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR Rate for the requested Interest Period, or (c) LIBOR Rate for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Revolving Loan, then the Agent will promptly so notify Westlake and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Westlake may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Base Rate Loan.

4.6 Certificates of the Agent. If any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer claims reimbursement or compensation under this Article 4, the Agent shall determine the amount thereof and shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the affected Lender) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the affected Lender, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

4.7 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or a Letter of Credit Issuer for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that a Lender or a Letter of Credit Issuer notifies Westlake of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Letter of Credit Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

4.8 Mitigation. If any Lender or any Letter of Credit Issuer gives a notice under Section 4.2 or requests compensation under Section 4.3, or if the Loan Parties are required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 4.1, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable in the future, as applicable; and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

4.9 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.3, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1, or if any Lender gives notice under Section 4.2, at the Borrowers’ request, the Agent or an Eligible Assignee shall have the right (but not the obligation) with the Agent’s approval, to purchase from such Lender, and such Lender agrees that it shall sell, all its Commitments for an amount equal to the principal balances thereof and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale pursuant to Assignment and Acceptance, without premium or discount. The Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Acceptance if such Lender fails to execute same within twenty (20) days of such request of assignment. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge).

4.10 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrowers in this Article 4 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.

GENERAL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS

Each Borrower (and each other Loan Party by executing an Obligation Guaranty, with respect to such Loan Party) warrants and represents to the Agent and the Lenders that except as hereafter disclosed to and accepted by the Agent and the Required Lenders in writing:

6.1 Authorization, Validity, and Enforceability of this Agreement and the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party has the power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, to incur the Obligations, and to grant to the Agent’s Liens upon and security interests in the Collateral. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary action (including obtaining approval of its stockholders if necessary) to authorize its execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party, and constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of each Loan Party, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with their respective terms except as enforceability may be limited by the Federal Bankruptcy Code or by any other state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency act or law and general principles of equity. Each Loan Party’s execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not conflict with, or constitute a violation or breach of, or result in the imposition of any Lien (other than in favor of the Agent) upon the property of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, by reason of the terms of (a) any contract, mortgage, lease, material agreement, indenture, or instrument to which such Loan Party is a party or which is binding upon it, (b) any Requirement of Law applicable to such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (c) the certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws or the limited liability company or limited partnership agreement of such Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. The Obligations under the Loan Documents are permitted by the applicable supplemental indenture for each Bond Debt.

6.2 Validity and Priority of Security Interest. The provisions of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents, and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and, upon the filing of all applicable financing statements against the Loan Parties, such Liens shall constitute perfected and continuing Liens on all the Collateral, having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral, except for those Liens identified in clauses (a) and (d) of the definition of Permitted Liens securing all the Obligations, and enforceable against each Loan Party and all third parties.

6.3 Organization and Qualification. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized or incorporated and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization or incorporation, (b) is qualified to do business and is in good standing in the jurisdictions in which qualification is necessary in order for it to own or lease its property and conduct its business, except to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (c) has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property.

Except as otherwise notified by Westlake to the Agent, Schedule 6.5 is a correct and complete list of the name and relationship to each Loan Party of each and all of its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates owned, directly or indirectly, by Westlake.

The Borrowers have also delivered to the Agent and the Lenders the unaudited balance sheet and related statements of income and cash flows for the Loan Parties as of June 30, 2011. All such Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Loan Parties as at the dates thereof and their results of operations for the periods then ended, subject to normal year-end adjustments as to the June 30, 2011 statements, and the absence of applicable footnotes.

6.7 Solvency. On the Closing Date, at the time of each Borrowing hereunder, and on the dates of the issuance of any Letters of Credit to be issued hereunder, each Loan Party is (and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, and any incurrence of additional Debt will be) Solvent.

ARTICLE 7.

AFFIRMATIVE AND NEGATIVE COVENANTS

Each Borrower (and each other Loan Party by execution of an Obligation Guaranty, with respect to covenants applicable to such Loan Party) covenants to the Agent and each Lender that so long as any of the Obligations remain outstanding or this Agreement is in effect:

7.1 Taxes and Other Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to comply with the foregoing shall not constitute a breach of this Section 7.1 if (i) such amounts are not yet due and payable; or (ii) (A) such Loan Party is contesting such taxes, fees, assessments, or governmental charges in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued, (B) such Loan Party has established proper reserves as required under GAAP, and (C) the nonpayment of such amounts does not result in the imposition of a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien).

7.2 Legal Existence and Good Standing. Except as permitted by Section 7.9, each Loan Party shall maintain its legal existence and its qualification and good standing in all jurisdictions in which the failure to maintain such existence and qualification or good standing could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The foregoing shall not restrict any merger, consolidation, wind-up, liquidation or dissolution permitted by Section 7.9.

7.3 Compliance with Law and Agreements; Maintenance of Licenses; Amendments to Charter Documents. Each Loan Party shall comply, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, in all material respects, with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or its business (including the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act and all Environmental Laws), except to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party shall violate the provisions of any Material Agreement, except to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, obtain and maintain all licenses, permits, franchises, and governmental authorizations necessary to own its property and to conduct its business as conducted on the Closing Date, except to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party shall modify, amend, or alter its certificate or articles of incorporation, or its limited liability company operating agreement or limited partnership agreement, as applicable, other than in a manner which does not adversely affect the rights of the Lenders or the Agent.

7.4 Maintenance of Property; Inspection of Property.

(a) Each Loan Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain all of its Collateral and other material property necessary and useful in the conduct of its business, in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

(b) Each Loan Party shall permit representatives and independent contractors of the Agent (at the expense of the Borrowers not to exceed (i) once per year or (ii) twice per year if the Availability is less than or equal to (A) the greater of (x) 40% of the Maximum Revolver Amount and (y) $160,000,000 for five (5) consecutive Business Days during such one year period or (B) the greater of (x) 35% of the Maximum Revolver Amount and (y) $140,000,000 at any time during such one year period, in each case unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to visit and inspect any of its properties, to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its directors, officers and independent public accountants, at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as soon as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to such Loan Parties; provided, however, when a Default or an Event of Default exists, the Agent or any Lender may do any of the foregoing at the expense of the Borrowers at any time during normal business hours without advance notice. The Agent and the Lenders shall give the Borrowers the opportunity to participate in any discussions with the Borrowers’ independent public accountants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.4, at all times during such visits and inspections, the Agent or any Lender (or their respective representatives or contractors) must comply with all applicable reasonable site regulations as the Loan Party or its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers or employees may require by reasonable notice of the same.

(c) Each Loan Party shall own or have valid licenses for all Proprietary Rights necessary for the anticipated future conduct of the business of each such Loan Party.

7.5 Insurance.

(a) Each Loan Party shall maintain, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with insurers (with a Best Rating of at least A7, unless otherwise approved by the Agent) satisfactory to Agent, (it being understood that the companies acceptable to the Agent on the Closing Date shall be acceptable thereafter absent a change in rating or other circumstances), (i) with respect to the properties and business of the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries of such type (including product liability, workers’ compensation, or commercial crime insurance), in such amounts, and with such coverages and deductibles as are customary for companies similarly situated (it being understood that policies acceptable in form and substance to the Agent in connection with the initial closing shall be generally acceptable thereafter absent a change in law, facts, or circumstances) and (ii) business interruption insurance in an amount not less than $300,000,000, with deductibles and subject to an insurance assignment satisfactory to the Agent (other than with respect to North American Pipe Corporation or Westech Building Products, Inc. for which no business interruption insurance is required absent a change in circumstances).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Borrower shall maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, public liability, theft, malicious mischief, flood and other risks, in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a Best Rating of at least A7, unless otherwise approved by the Agent) satisfactory to the Agent. From time to time upon request, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent XXXXX certificates of insurance or, upon request, certified copies of its insurance policies. Unless the Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy shall include satisfactory endorsements (i) showing the Agent as a loss payee as to the

Collateral or additional insured, as appropriate; (ii) requiring at least ten (10) days prior written notice to the Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy; and (iii) specifying that the interest of the Agent in the property insured will not be invalidated by: (A) any act or neglect of any Borrower or the owner of the property, (B) foreclosure, notice of sale, or similar proceedings with respect to the property, (C) change in the title or ownership of the property, or (D) change to a more hazardous occupancy. If any Borrower fails to provide and pay for any insurance, the Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge the Borrowers therefor. While no Event of Default exists, the Borrowers may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the proceeds are delivered to the Agent in accordance with Section 7.6. If an Event of Default exists, only the Agent shall be authorized to settle, adjust and compromise such claims.

7.6 Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds.

Other than with respect to Minor Insurance Events, the Agent is hereby authorized to collect all insurance and condemnation proceeds in respect of the Collateral directly and, after deducting from such proceeds the reasonable expenses, if any, incurred by the Agent in the collection or handling thereof, the Agent shall apply such proceeds, ratably, to the reduction of the Obligations (but not a reduction of the Maximum Revolver Amount) in the order provided for in Section 3.7. In the case of any loss, damage, or destruction to any assets of the Loan Parties that includes Collateral and other assets of the Loan Parties, the Loan Parties shall deliver to the Agent satisfactory evidence of the amount of the insurance and condemnation proceeds that are attributable to the Collateral; if the Agent is not satisfied with such evidence, the Agent may, at the expense of the Loan Parties, retain an independent third party to perform such valuation.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrowers shall submit to the Agent and the Lenders annually, commencing on the first Anniversary Date, and on each Anniversary Date thereafter, an update of the status of each material environmental noncompliance or material liability issue of a Loan Party with respect to its property that is reasonably expected to result in liability equal to or greater than $25,000,000. The Agent or any Lender may request copies of technical reports prepared by any Loan Party and their communications with any Governmental Authority to determine whether any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries is proceeding reasonably to correct, cure, or contest in good faith any alleged non-compliance or environmental liability. The Borrowers shall, at the Agent’s or the Required Lenders’ request and at the Borrowers’ expense, (i) retain an independent environmental engineer acceptable to the Agent to evaluate the site, including tests if appropriate, where the material non-compliance or alleged material non-compliance with Environmental Laws has occurred and prepare and deliver to the Agent a report setting forth the results of such evaluation, a proposed plan for responding to any environmental problems described therein, and an estimate of the costs thereof, and (ii) provide to the Agent and the Lenders a supplemental report of such engineer whenever the scope of the environmental problems, or the response thereto or the estimated costs thereof, shall increase in any material respect.

Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the following manner, the Loan Parties agree that any notice by the Agent of sale, disposition, or other intended action hereunder or in connection herewith, whether required by the UCC or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to such Loan Party if such notice is mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or is delivered personally against receipt, at least five (5) Business Days prior to such action to Westlake’s address specified

The Agent will return any excess to the Borrowers and the Borrowers shall remain liable for any deficiency.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Loan Parties hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all rights to notice and hearing prior to the exercise by the Agent of the Agent’s rights to repossess the Collateral without judicial process or to reply, attach or levy upon the Collateral without notice or hearing.

by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrowers and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit F (“Assignment and Acceptance”) together with any note or notes, if any, subject to such assignment, and (iii) the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500. The Borrowers agree to promptly execute and deliver new promissory notes and replacement promissory notes if requested by an Assignee or assignor Lender to evidence assignments of the Revolving Loans and Commitments in accordance herewith.

(b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor Lender that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance (and consent of the Agent thereto, if required) and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations, including, but not limited to, the obligation to participate in Letters of Credit and Credit Support have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents (except for such rights and obligations not available to such assignee by express terms of this Agreement), and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties, or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto or the attachment, perfection, or priority of any Lien granted by any Loan Party to the Agent or any Lender in the Collateral; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such Assignee will, independently (without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time), continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers, including the discretionary rights and incidental power, as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon satisfaction of the requirements of Section 11.2(a), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons not Affiliates of any Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loans, the Commitment of that Lender and the other interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations; (iii) the Borrowers and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except the matters set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i), (ii), and (iii), and all amounts payable by the Loan Parties hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same limitation as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

(f) If at any time any Lender which has issued any Letters of Credit which remain outstanding, assigns all of its Commitment, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges, and duties of a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its assignment of its Commitment and all Letter-of Credit Rights with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 1.3). In the event any other Lender issues any Letter of Credit in substitution for any outstanding Letter of Credit issued by any Lender which ceases to be a Lender hereunder, the successor Letter of Credit Issuer shall succeed to the rights and obligations of the original Letter of Credit Issuer.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(h) No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Defaulting Lender or natural person. In connection with any assignment by a Defaulting Lender, such assignment shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to the Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or other compensating actions as the Agent deems appropriate), (a) to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder, and (b) to acquire its Pro Rata Share of all Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations. If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under applicable Requirement of Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

ARTICLE 12.

THE AGENT

12.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints the Bank as its Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article 12. The provisions of this Article 12 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and no Borrower shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which the Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (a) the determination of the applicability of ineligibility criteria with respect to the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (b) the making of Agent Advances pursuant to Section 1.2(i), and (c) the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 9.2, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders.

12.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees, or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

12.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation, or warranty made by any Borrower, any Affiliate of any Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Borrower or any Affiliates of any Borrower.

12.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile,

telex or telephone message, statement or other document, or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if so required by Section 11.1) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

12.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

12.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently (without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate), made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently (without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time), continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals, and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, or creditworthiness of the Borrowers which may come into the possession of any of the Agent Related Persons.

12.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities as such term is defined in Section 13.11; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,

modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

12.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. The Bank and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Capital Stock in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with the Borrowers and their Affiliates as though the Bank were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Bank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrowers, their Affiliates and Account Debtors (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrowers, Affiliates, or Account Debtors) and acknowledge that the Agent and the Bank shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Revolving Loans, the Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include the Bank in its individual capacity.

12.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon at least thirty (30) days prior notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Agent. In the event the Bank sells all of its Commitment and Revolving Loans as part of a sale, transfer or other disposition by the Bank of substantially all of its loan portfolio, the Bank shall resign as Agent and such purchaser or transferee shall become the successor Agent hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, if the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Westlake, a successor agent from among the Lenders or, if no Lender accepts such role, the Agent may appoint Required Lenders as successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, or upon appointment of Required Lenders as successor Agent, (a) such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent, (b) the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, (c) the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article 12 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

12.10 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Agent’s Liens upon any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and Full Payment of the Obligations (other than Bank Products that the applicable Lender chooses not to terminate and indemnity obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement and are not due and payable at such termination); (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Borrowers certify to the Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 7.9 (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iii) constituting property that is not Collateral in which the Loan Parties owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) constituting property leased to the Loan Parties under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, the Agent will not release any of the Agent’s Liens without the prior written authorization of the Lenders; provided that the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Agent’s Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $5,000,000 during each Fiscal Year without the prior written authorization of the

Lenders and the Agent may release the Agent’s Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $10,000,000 during each Fiscal Year with the prior written authorization of Required Lenders. Upon request by the Agent or the Borrowers at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release any Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.10.

(b) Upon receipt by the Agent of any authorization required pursuant to Section 12.10(a) from the Lenders of the Agent’s authority to release Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrowers, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Agent’s Liens upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(c) The Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing.

12.11 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by the Agent, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or against any Loan Party, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations of any Loan Party to such Lender arising under, or relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from the Agent in excess of such Lender’s ratable portion of all such distributions by the Agent, such Lender shall promptly (1) turn the same over to the Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Agent, or in same day funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (2) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter

recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to the Agent for application under Section 12.14(e) and it shall provide a written statement to the Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction.

12.12 Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting the Lenders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral or control thereof to the Agent or in accordance with the Agent’s instructions.

12.13 Payments by Agent to Lenders. All payments to be made by the Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds to each Lender pursuant to wire transfer instructions delivered in writing to the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or if such Lender is an Assignee, on the applicable Assignment and Acceptance), or pursuant to such other wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to the Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, the Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, or interest on the Revolving Loans or otherwise. Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrowers have not made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

12.14 Settlement.

(a) Each Lender’s funded portion of the Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Agent, the Bank, and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Revolving Loans, the Non-Ratable Loans and the Agent Advances shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) The Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis at the Agent’s election, (A) on behalf of the Bank, with respect to each outstanding Non-Ratable Loan, (B) for itself, with respect to each Agent Advance, and (C) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 1:30 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Bank, in the case of Non-Ratable Loans and the Agent in the case of Agent Advances) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the

outstanding principal amount of the Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances with respect to each Settlement to the Agent, to Agent’s account, not later than 3:30 p.m. (Houston, Texas time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto. Settlements may occur during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 8 have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance and, together with the portion of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance representing the Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not transferred to the Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after the Settlement Date and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to the Revolving Loans (A) on behalf of the Bank, with respect to each outstanding Non-Ratable Loan, and (B) for itself, with respect to each Agent Advance. If any settlement amount is not transferred to the Agent by any Lender on the Business Day after demand, the Agent will notify the Borrowers of such Lender’s failure to transfer and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Agent, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of the applicable advance, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans comprising that particular advance.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default and regardless of whether the Agent has requested a Settlement with respect to a Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance), each other Lender (A) shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Bank or the Agent, as applicable, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance and (B) if Settlement has not previously occurred with respect to such Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances, upon demand by Bank or Agent, as applicable, shall pay to Bank or Agent, as applicable, as the purchase price of such participation an amount equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by any Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(iii) From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender purchases an undivided interest and participation in any Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance.

(iv) Between Settlement Dates, the Agent, to the extent no Agent Advances are outstanding, may pay over to the Bank any payments received by the Agent, which in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to the Bank’s Revolving Loans including Non-Ratable Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, collections received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to the Bank’s Revolving Loans (other than

to Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances in which such Lender has not yet funded its purchase of a participation pursuant to clause (ii) above), as provided for in the previous sentence, the Bank shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, to be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. During the period between Settlement Dates, the Bank with respect to Non-Ratable Loans, the Agent with respect to Agent Advances, and each Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the actual average daily amount of funds employed by the Bank, the Agent, and the other Lenders, respectively.

(v) Unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender to the contrary, the Agent may assume that the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 8 have been satisfied and the requested Borrowing will not exceed Availability on any Funding Date for a Revolving Loan or Non-Ratable Loan.

(b) Lenders’ Failure to Perform. All Revolving Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances) shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, and (iii) the obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several, not joint and several.

(c) Defaulting Lenders. Unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Closing Date, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date. Furthermore, the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If any Lender has not transferred its full Pro Rata Share to the Agent in immediately available funds and the Agent has transferred corresponding amount to the Borrowers on the Business Day following such Funding Date, that Lender shall make such amount available to the Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for that day. A notice by the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If each Lender’s full Pro Rata Share is transferred to the Agent as required, the amount transferred to the Agent shall constitute that Lender’s Revolving Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. If that amount is not transferred to the Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, the Agent will notify the Borrowers of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Agent for the Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans comprising that particular Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan on any Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make a Revolving Loan on that Funding Date. No Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to advance such other Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing.

(d) Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations to fund or participate in the Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit, the Agent may exclude the Commitments and Revolving Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata Shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 11.1.

(e) Payments; Fees. The Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to the Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to the Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. The Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, use the funds to cash collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, or readvance the amounts to the Borrowers hereunder. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section 2.5. If any Letter of Credit Obligations owing to a Defaulted Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, fees attributable to such Letter of Credit Obligations under Section 2.6 shall be paid to such Lenders. The Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to the Letter of Credit Obligations that are not reallocated.

(f) Cure. The Borrowers, the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuers may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender. At such time, Pro Rata Shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of such Lender’s Commitments and Revolving Loans, and all outstanding Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other exposures hereunder shall be reallocated among the Lenders and settled by the Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata Shares. Unless expressly agreed by the Borrowers, the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuers, no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Revolving Loan, to make a payment in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

12.15 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Loan Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents, for the ratable benefit and obligation of the Agent and the Lenders, and to amend the Schedules to the Loan Documents without a separate amendment to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents signed by the requisite Lenders if the underlying transactions necessitating such amendments of the Schedules are permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent, Majority Lenders, or Required Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent, the Majority Lenders, or the Required Lenders, as applicable, of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that the Revolving Loans, Agent Advances, Non-Ratable Loans, Bank Products, and all interest, fees and expenses hereunder constitute one Debt, secured pari passu by all of the Collateral.

12.16 Field Audit and Examination Reports; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report (each a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”) prepared by or on behalf of the Agent;

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that neither the Bank nor the Agent (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or (ii) shall be liable for any information contained in any Report;

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Agent or the Bank or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Borrowers and will rely significantly upon the Borrowers’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Borrowers’ personnel;

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agent, the Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

13.14 Final Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

13.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the Agent, each Lender, and each Borrower in separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

13.17 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Revolving Loans have been accelerated, the Agent, each Letter of Credit Issuer, each Lender, and any of their respective Affiliates are authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Loan Party, any such notice being waived by each Loan Party to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, the Agent, such Letter of Credit Issuer, such Lender, or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all Obligations (for the benefit of all Lenders as provided herein), now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent, such Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Letter of Credit Issuer and each Lender agree to promptly notify the Borrowers and the Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Letter of Credit Issuer or

such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or prepayment with respect to the Obligation as a result of exercising its right under this Section 13.16 which is in excess of its share of any such payment in accordance with the relevant rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment with each other Lender in accordance with the relevant rights under the Loan Documents. If all or any portion of such excess payment is subsequently recovered from such purchasing Lender, then the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery. Each Loan Party agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of offset) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

13.19 Conflicts with Other Loan Documents. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (or in another Loan Document by specific reference to the applicable provision contained in this Agreement), if any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with any provision of any other Loan Document, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

13.20 Westlake as Agent.

FORM OF OBLIGATION GUARANTY

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED OBLIGATION GUARANTY

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED OBLIGATION GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is executed as of September 16, 2011, jointly and severally by the undersigned (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”), for the benefit of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association (in its capacity as Agent for the benefit of Lenders (defined below)).

RECITALS

A. In connection with that certain Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2003, by and among Westlake Chemical Corporation and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, Agent, and certain lenders, certain guarantors entered into certain Obligation Guaranties (the “2003 Obligation Guaranties”).

B. In connection with that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 8, 2008 by and among Westlake Chemical Corporation and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, Agent, and certain lenders (including all annexes, exhibits, and schedules thereto, as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), certain guarantors (“Existing Guarantors”) entered into that certain Amended and Restated Obligation Guaranty dated as of September 8, 2008 (as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Guaranty”), which amended and restated the 2003 Obligation Guaranties.

C. (i) Certain existing guarantors have ceased to be in existence and will no longer be Guarantors hereunder; (ii) certain existing guarantors will continue to be Guarantors hereunder; and (iii) certain subsidiaries of Westlake Chemical Corporation will become Guarantors pursuant to this Guaranty.

X. Xxxxxxxx Chemical Corporation and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, Agent, and certain lenders are concurrently herewith entering into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (including all annexes, exhibits, and schedules thereto, as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”). In connection with the Credit Agreement, Guarantors have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Guaranty, and to ratify, confirm, renew and extend the Existing Guaranty in its entirety, without interruption, novation or discharge as set forth herein.

ACCORDINGLY, for adequate and sufficient consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor, jointly and severally (together with any other Person that executes an Obligation Guaranty), guarantees to Agent and Lenders the prompt payment of the Guaranteed Debt (defined below) as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement or in Annex A thereto have the same meanings when used, unless otherwise defined, in this Guaranty. As used in this Guaranty:

Agent is defined in the recitals to this Guaranty.


		1		Exhibit B

Borrowers means Borrowers, any Borrower as debtors-in-possession, and any receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator, custodian, or similar party appointed for any Borrower or for all or substantially all of any Borrower’s assets under any Debtor Relief Law.

Credit Agreement is defined in the recitals to this Guaranty.

Debtor Relief Law means the Bankruptcy Code of the United States of America and all other applicable liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer or conveyance, suspension of payments, or similar laws from time to time in effect affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Guaranteed Debt means, collectively, (a) the Obligations and (b) all present and future costs, Attorney Costs, and expenses reasonably incurred by Agent or any Lender to enforce any Borrower’s, any Guarantor’s, or any other obligor’s payment of any of the Guaranteed Debt, including, without limitation (to the extent lawful), all present and future amounts that would become due but for the operation of §§ 502 or 506 or any other provision of Title 11 of the United States Code and all present and future accrued and unpaid interest (including, without limitation, all post-maturity interest and any post-petition interest in any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws to which any Borrower or any Guarantor becomes subject).

Guarantor and Guarantors is defined in the preamble to this Guaranty.

Lender means, individually, or Lenders means, collectively, the Agent, the Lenders, each Letter of Credit Issuer, and each Person that, at the date it enters into a Hedge Agreement with a Loan Party, is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, and each Affiliate of a Lender that is a party to any Bank Product with any Loan Party, but with respect to any Hedge Agreement or Bank Product, in compliance with Section 7.23 of the Credit Agreement.

Subordinated Debt means, for each Guarantor, all present and future obligations of any Loan Party to such Guarantor, whether those obligations are (a) direct, indirect, fixed, contingent, liquidated, unliquidated, joint, several, or joint and several, (b) due or to become due to such Guarantor, (c) held by or are to be held by such Guarantor, (d) created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise, or (e) evidenced in writing.

2. GUARANTY. This is an absolute, irrevocable, and continuing guaranty of payment, not collection, and the circumstance that at any time or from time to time the Guaranteed Debt may be paid in full does not affect the obligation of any Guarantor with respect to the Guaranteed Debt incurred after that. This Guaranty remains in effect until the Guaranteed Debt is fully paid and performed (other than Bank Products that the applicable Lender chooses not to terminate and indemnity obligations that survive the termination of the Credit Agreement and are not yet due and payable at such termination), all commitments to extend any credit under the Loan Documents have terminated, all Letters of Credit which have not been fully cash collateralized have expired or been terminated, and all Hedge Agreements with any Lender have expired. No Guarantor may rescind or revoke its obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Debt. Notwithstanding any contrary provision, it is the intention of Guarantors, Lenders, and Agent that the amount of the Guaranteed Debt guaranteed by Guarantors by this Guaranty shall be, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, or similar laws applicable to Guarantors. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection with the payment of any of the Guaranteed Debt, the amount of the Guaranteed Debt guaranteed by any Guarantor by this Guaranty shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any applicable state law.


		2		Exhibit B

3. CONSIDERATION. Each Guarantor represents and warrants that its liability under this Guaranty may reasonably be expected to directly or indirectly benefit it.

4. CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. If any Guarantor becomes liable for any indebtedness owing by any Borrower to Agent or any Lender, other than under this Guaranty, that liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected by this Guaranty. The rights of Agent or Lenders under this Guaranty are cumulative of any and all other rights that Agent or Lenders may ever have against any Guarantor. The exercise by Agent or Lenders of any right under this Guaranty or otherwise does not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right.

5. PAYMENT UPON DEMAND. If an Event of Default exists, each Guarantor shall, on demand and without further notice of dishonor and without any notice having been given to any Guarantor previous to that demand of either the acceptance by Agent or Lenders of this Guaranty or the creation or incurrence of any Guaranteed Debt, pay the amount of the Guaranteed Debt then due and payable to Agent and Lenders; provided that, if an Event of Default exists and Agent or Lenders cannot, for any reason, accelerate the Obligations, then the Guaranteed Debt shall be, as among Guarantors, Agent, and Lenders, a fully matured, due, and payable obligation of Guarantors to Agent and Lenders. It is not necessary for Agent or Lenders, in order to enforce that payment by any Guarantor, first or contemporaneously to institute suit or exhaust remedies against any Borrower or others liable on any Guaranteed Debt or to enforce rights against any Collateral securing any Guaranteed Debt.

6. SUBORDINATION. The Subordinated Debt is expressly subordinated to the full and final payment of the Guaranteed Debt. Each Guarantor agrees not to accept any payment of any Subordinated Debt from any Loan Party if an Event of Default exists. If any Guarantor receives any payment of any Subordinated Debt in violation of the foregoing, such Guarantor shall hold that payment in trust for Agent and Lenders and promptly turn it over to Agent, in the form received (with any necessary endorsements), to be applied to the Guaranteed Debt.

7. SUBROGATION AND CONTRIBUTION. Until payment in full of the Guaranteed Debt, the termination of the obligation of Lenders to extend credit under the Loan Documents, and expiration of all Hedge Agreements between any Loan Party and any Lender, (a) no Guarantor may assert, enforce, or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation to any of the rights or Liens of Agent or Lenders or any other beneficiary against any Borrower or any other obligor on the Guaranteed Debt or any Collateral or other security or any right of recourse, reimbursement, subrogation, contribution, indemnification, or similar right against any Borrower or any other obligor on any Guaranteed Debt or any guarantor of it, (b) each Guarantor defers all of the foregoing rights (whether they arise in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law, or otherwise), and (c) each Guarantor defers the benefit of, and subordinates any right to participate in, any Collateral or other security given to Agent or Lenders or any other beneficiary to secure payment of any Guaranteed Debt.

8. NO RELEASE. Guarantors’ obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released, diminished, or affected by the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (a) any taking or accepting of any other security or assurance for any Guaranteed Debt; (b) any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, impairment, or loss of any Collateral securing any Guaranteed Debt; (c) any full or partial release of the liability of any other obligor on any Guaranteed Debt, except for any final release resulting from payment in full of such Guaranteed Debt; (d) the modification of, or waiver of compliance with, any terms of any other Loan Document; (e) the insolvency, bankruptcy, or lack of corporate or


		3		Exhibit B

partnership power of any other obligor at any time liable for any Guaranteed Debt, whether now existing or occurring in the future; (f) any renewal, extension, or rearrangement of any Guaranteed Debt or any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, or compromise that may be granted or given by Agent or any Lender to any other obligor on any Guaranteed Debt; (g) any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of Agent or any Lender to take or prosecute any action in connection with the Guaranteed Debt or to foreclose, take, or prosecute any action in connection with any Loan Document; (h) any failure of Agent or any Lender to notify any Guarantor of any renewal, extension, or assignment of any Guaranteed Debt, or the release of any security or of any other action taken or refrained from being taken by Agent or any Lender against any Borrower or any new agreement between Agent, any Lender, and any Borrower; it being understood that neither Agent nor any Lender is required to give any Guarantor any notice of any kind under any circumstances whatsoever with respect to or in connection with any Guaranteed Debt, other than any notice required to be given to any Guarantor by law or elsewhere in this Guaranty; (i) the unenforceability of any Guaranteed Debt against any other obligor or any security securing same because it exceeds the amount permitted by law, the act of creating it is ultra xxxxx, the officers creating it exceeded their authority or violated their fiduciary duties in connection with it, or otherwise; or (j) any payment of any Guaranteed Debt to Agent or any Lender is held to constitute a preference under any Debtor Relief Law or for any other reason Agent or any Lender is required to refund that payment or make payment to someone else (and in each such instance this Guaranty will be reinstated in an amount equal to that payment).

9. WAIVERS. By execution hereof, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to the waivers set forth in Section 13.9 of the Credit Agreement. To the maximum extent lawful, each Guarantor waives all rights by which it might be entitled to require suit on an accrued right of action in respect of any Guaranteed Debt or require suit against any Borrower or others.

10. LOAN DOCUMENTS. By execution hereof, each Guarantor covenants and agrees that certain representations, warranties, terms, covenants, and conditions set forth in the Loan Documents are applicable to Guarantors and shall be imposed upon Guarantors, and each Guarantor reaffirms that each such representation and warranty is true and correct and covenants and agrees to promptly and properly perform, observe, and comply with each such term, covenant, or condition. Moreover, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this Guaranty is subject to the offset provisions of the Loan Documents in favor of Agent and Lenders. In the event the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall cease to remain in effect for any reason whatsoever during any period when any part of the Guaranteed Debt remains unpaid, the terms, covenants, and agreements of the Credit Agreement or such other Loan Document incorporated herein by reference shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect as obligations of Guarantors under this Guaranty.

11. RELIANCE AND DUTY TO REMAIN INFORMED. Each Guarantor confirms that it has executed and delivered this Guaranty after reviewing the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents and such other information as it has deemed appropriate in order to make its own credit analysis and decision to execute and deliver this Guaranty. Each Guarantor confirms that it has made its own independent investigation with respect to Borrowers’ creditworthiness and is not executing and delivering this Guaranty in reliance on any representation or warranty by Agent or any Lender as to that creditworthiness. Each Guarantor expressly assumes all responsibilities to remain informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and any circumstances affecting Borrowers’ ability to perform under the Loan Documents to which it is a party or any Collateral securing any Guaranteed Debt.

12. NO REDUCTION. The Guaranteed Debt shall not be reduced, discharged, or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim, or defense (except for the defense of complete and final payment of the Guaranteed Debt) of any Borrower or any other obligor against Agent or any


		4		Exhibit B

Lender or against payment of the Guaranteed Debt, whether that offset, claim, or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Debt or otherwise. Those claims and defenses include, without limitation, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, fraud, bankruptcy, incapacity/infancy, statute of limitations, lender liability, accord and satisfaction, usury, forged signatures, mistake, impossibility, frustration of purpose, and unconscionability.

13. INSOLVENCY OF GUARANTOR. Should any Guarantor become insolvent, or fail to pay such Guarantor’s debts generally as they become due, or voluntarily seek, consent to, or acquiesce in, the benefit or benefits of any Debtor Relief Law (other than as a creditor or claimant), or become a party to (or be made the subject of) any proceeding provided for by any Debtor Relief Law (other than as a creditor or claimant) that could suspend or otherwise adversely affect the rights of Agent or any Lender granted hereunder, then, in any such event, the Guaranteed Debt shall be, as among such Guarantor, Agent and Lenders, a fully matured, due, and payable obligation of such Guarantor to Agent and Lenders (without regard to whether any Borrower is then in default under the Loan Documents or whether the Obligations, or any part thereof, is then due and owing by any Borrower to any Lender), payable in full by such Guarantor to Lenders upon demand, and the amount thereof so payable shall be the estimated amount owing in respect of the contingent claim created hereunder.

14. LOAN DOCUMENT. This Guaranty is a Loan Document and is subject to the applicable provisions of Section 13 of the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions relating to GOVERNING LAW, CHOICE OF FORUM, SERVICE OF PROCESS AND JURISDICTION, AND WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, all of which are incorporated into this Guaranty by reference the same as if set forth in this Guaranty verbatim.

15. NOTICES. To be effective, notices required or permitted to be given under this Guaranty must be in writing, shall be delivered as provided in Section 13.8 of the Credit Agreement to the address or facsimile number set forth on the signature pages to this Guaranty, and shall be effective as provided in Section 13.8 of the Credit Agreement.

16. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment, waiver, or discharge to or under this Guaranty is valid unless it is in writing and is signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced.

17. AGENT AND LENDERS. Agent is Agent for each Lender under the Credit Agreement. All rights granted to Agent under or in connection with this Guaranty are for each Lender’s ratable benefit. Agent may, without the joinder of any Lender, exercise any rights in Agent’s or Lenders’ favor under or in connection with this Guaranty. Agent’s and each Lender’s rights and obligations vis-à-vis each other may be subject to one or more separate agreements between those parties. However, no Guarantor is required to inquire about any such agreement or is subject to any terms of such agreement unless such Guarantor specifically joins such agreement. Therefore, no Guarantor nor any of its successors or assigns is entitled to any benefits or provisions of any such separate agreement or is entitled to rely upon or raise as a defense any party’s failure or refusal to comply with the provisions of such agreement.

18. PARTIES. This Guaranty benefits Agent, Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns and binds Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns. Upon appointment of any successor Agent under the Credit Agreement, all of the rights of Agent under this Guaranty automatically vest in that new Agent as successor Agent on behalf of Lenders without any further act, deed, conveyance, or other formality other than that appointment. The rights of Agent and Lenders under this Guaranty may be transferred with any assignment of the Guaranteed Debt. The Credit Agreement contains provisions governing assignments of the Guaranteed Debt and of rights and obligations under this Guaranty.

19. RESTATEMENT OF EXISTING GUARANTY.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

(a)

EPA Audit of Ethylene Units in Lake Xxxxxxx. During 2007, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, conducted an audit of the Company’s ethylene units in Lake Charles, Louisiana, with a focus on leak detection and repair, or LDAR. By letter dated January 31, 2008, the U.S. Department of Justice, or DOJ, notified the Company that the EPA had referred the matter to the DOJ to bring a civil case against the Company alleging violations of various environmental laws and regulations. The DOJ informed the Company that it would seek monetary penalties and require the Company to implement an “enhanced LDAR” program for the ethylene units. The Company’s representatives are negotiating a possible settlement with EPA. While the Company can offer no assurance as to an outcome, the Company believes that the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

(b)	The items disclosed in paragraph (a) include investigation or resolution of alleged non-compliances with permits and are incorporated by reference.

(c)	The items disclosed in paragraph (a) include investigation or resolution of Releases and are incorporated by reference. In addition, the following items are disclosed:

•

The soil and groundwater at the Company’s manufacturing complex in Xxxxxxx City is contaminated primarily by EDC and mercury. The contamination is being investigated pursuant to a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study conducted by Xxxxxxxx, PolyOne and the Company. PolyOne is paying the costs of the investigation pursuant to a 2007 Settlement Agreement. The groundwater is being remediated by PolyOne pursuant to a RCRA permit.

•

The soil and groundwater at the Company’s manufacturing complex in Geismar is contaminated primarily with EDC. The groundwater is being remediated by Xxxxxx Chemicals, Inc. pursuant to a Settlement Agreement between Xxxxxx and the federal Environmental Protection Agency and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality.

•

Contract Disputes with Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne. In connection with the 1990 and 1997 acquisitions of the Xxxxxxxx Corporation chemical manufacturing complex in Xxxxxxx City, Kentucky, Xxxxxxxx agreed to indemnify the Company for any liabilities related to preexisting contamination at the complex. For its part, the Company agreed to indemnify Xxxxxxxx for post-closing contamination caused by the Company’s operations. The soil and groundwater at the complex, which does not include the Company’s nearby PVC facility, had been extensively contaminated by Xxxxxxxx’x operations. In 1993, Xxxxxxxx spun off the predecessor of PolyOne, and that predecessor assumed Xxxxxxxx’x indemnification obligations relating to preexisting contamination.

•

In 2003, litigation arose among the Company, Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne with respect to the allocation of the cost of remediating contamination at the site. The parties settled this litigation in December 2007 and the case was dismissed. In the settlement the parties agreed that, among other things: (1) PolyOne would pay 100% of the costs (with specified exceptions), net of recoveries or credits from third parties, incurred with respect

Schedule 6.13

to environmental issues at the Xxxxxxx City site from August 1, 2007 forward; (2) either the Company or PolyOne might, from time to time in the future (but not more than once every five years), institute a proceeding to adjust that percentage; and (3) the Company and PolyOne would negotiate a new environmental remediation utilities and services agreement to cover the Company’s provision to or on behalf of PolyOne of certain environmental remediation services at the site. The current environmental remediation activities at the Xxxxxxx City complex consisting of a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study are being conducted under the jurisdiction of EPA pursuant to an Administrative Order on Consent executed in 2009 by Xxxxxxxx, PolyOne and the Company. On March 17, 2010 PolyOne filed a notice of arbitration pursuant to which it seeks reimbursement of costs related to removal of mercury contaminated soil of approximately $1.45 million. The arbitration is currently stayed while Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne pursue an insurance claim for those costs.

(d)	The items disclosed in paragraphs (a) and (c) are incorporated by reference.

•

Administrative Proceedings. There are several administrative proceedings in Kentucky involving the Company, Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne related to the same manufacturing complex in Xxxxxxx City. In 2003, the Kentucky Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet (“Cabinet”) re-issued Xxxxxxxx’x Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, or RCRA, permit which requires Xxxxxxxx to remediate contamination at the Xxxxxxx City manufacturing complex. Both Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne challenged various terms of the permit in an attempt to shift Xxxxxxxx’x clean-up obligations under the permit to the Company. All of these administrative proceedings have been consolidated. The case has been continued and a status conference is scheduled for January, 2012.

•

Monetary Relief. Except as noted above, with respect to the settlement of the contract litigation among the Company, Xxxxxxxx and PolyOne, neither the court, the Kentucky Cabinet, nor EPA has established any allocation of the costs of remediation among the various parties that are involved in the judicial and administrative proceedings discussed above. The Company is not in a position at this time to state what effect, if any, the resolution of these proceedings could have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in 2008 and later years. Any cash expenditures that the Company might incur in the future with respect to the remediation of contamination at the complex would likely be spread out over an extended period. As a result, the Company believes it is unlikely that any remediation costs allocable to it will be material in terms of expenditures made in any individual reporting period.

(e)	The items disclosed in paragraphs (a) and (c) are incorporated by reference.

(f)	The items disclosed in paragraphs (a) and (c) are incorporated by reference.

(g)	The items disclosed in paragraphs (a) and (c) are incorporated by reference.
