(a) at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice in the case of Eurodollar Loans and (b) at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice in the case of Base Rate Loans; provided that any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time). Each such notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable and shall be given by such Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, appropriately completed to specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Construction Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) whether the Construction Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans and, if Eurodollar Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each applicable Lender notice of the proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

2.6 Pro Rata Borrowings; Availability. Each Borrowing of Loans shall be incurred contemporaneously and ratably among the applicable Lenders based upon the amount of their respective Construction Loan Commitments of the applicable Tranche. It is agreed that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make a Loan hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan hereunder.

2.7 Minimum Amount and Maximum Number of Borrowings, etc.

(a) Except in the case of Borrowings of Construction Loans incurred solely to pay any of the Obligations, the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Construction Loans or a particular Tranche shall not be less than (i) $1,000,000 or (ii) if less than $1,000,000, the remaining aggregate Construction Loan Commitments of all Lenders in respect of such Tranche.

(b) Except in the case of Borrowings of Construction Loans incurred solely to pay any of the Obligations, each Borrower shall be limited to a maximum of one (1) Borrowing of Construction Loans per month.

(c) At no time shall there be outstanding more than six (6) separate Interest Periods in respect of Eurodollar Loans of any Tranche.

2.8 Disbursement of Funds. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender will make available, through such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, its pro rata portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans requested to be made on such date, in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the payment office of the Administrative Agent (as notified to the Lenders from time to time by the Administrative Agent), and the Administrative Agent will deposit the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders into the Tranche A Construction Account (in the case of Tranche A Construction Loans) or the Tranche B Construction Account (in the case of Tranche B Construction Loans). Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable date of the Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s

portion of the Borrowing on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender on demand. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower, and such Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or such Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if such amount is recovered from such Lender, the cost to the Administrative Agent of acquiring overnight federal funds at the then applicable rate and (ii) if such amount is recovered from a Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest as provided herein. Nothing in this Section 2.8 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make a Loan hereunder or to prejudice any rights which a Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amounts repaid by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be available for reborrowing as if such amounts had never been disbursed.

2.9 Evidence of Obligations and Notes.

(a) Each Lender will maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender as a result of the Loans of such Lender, including the amounts of principal, interest and other amounts payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement and, subject to Section 2.9(b) hereof, the Notes. The entries made by each Lender pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall constitute prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Loans and other Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such account or accounts, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay or pay the Loans made by such Lender, accrued interest thereon and the other Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lender hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender will advise each Borrower of the outstanding indebtedness hereunder to such Lender upon written request therefor. If any amounts paid by a Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the Notes, if any, issued pursuant hereto are insufficient to repay or pay the principal amount of all outstanding Loans owed by such Borrower, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other Obligations, such Borrower shall be responsible for the deficiency.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that, upon request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender (i) in the case of Tranche A Construction Loans or Tranche B Construction Loans, a promissory note duly executed and delivered by each Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Tranche A Construction Note” or a “Tranche B Construction Note”, as applicable), and (ii) in the case of Tranche A Term Loans

or Tranche B Term Loans, a promissory note duly executed and delivered by each Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Tranche A Term Note” or a “Tranche B Term Note”, as applicable).

(c) Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this clause, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record each Lender’s Commitments, the Loans made by each Lender, the principal amount (and stated interest) with respect to each Loan, and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, annexed to which the Administrative Agent shall retain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.11 hereof. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Obligations. The entries in the Register shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the accuracy of the information so set forth, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan is registered as the owner thereof for the purposes of all Finance Documents, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. Any assignment or transfer of a Commitment or the Loans made pursuant hereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Acceptance that has been executed by the requisite parties pursuant to Section 11.11 and compliance with the other provisions set forth in Section 11.11. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitments or Loans shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 2.9(c) and compliance with the other provisions set forth in Section 11.11.

(d) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make such notation shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans.

2.10 Conversions. The Borrowers shall have the option to convert on any Business Day the principal amount of the Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings from one Type of Loan into a Borrowing of another Type of Loan; provided, however, that (i) Loans of a particular Tranche may not be so converted to another Type unless the aggregate principal amount of such Loans to be so converted equals $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (ii) except as provided in Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 2.18, no conversion of all or any portion of any Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan may be effected on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, (iii) no partial conversion of Eurodollar Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to be less than $1,000,000, (iv) Base Rate Loans may only be converted into Eurodollar Loans if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of conversion or would result from such conversion, and (v) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall result in a greater number of Interest Periods than is permitted under Section 2.7 hereof. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (each a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) specifying (w) the principal amount of the

Loans to be so converted, (x) the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were made, (y) the Type of Loan from which such amount is being converted and the Type of Loan into which such amount will be converted, and (z) if such amount is to be converted into Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto or, if such amount is to be continued as a Eurodollar Loan, the portion thereof to be continued and the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans.

(c) From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all Obligations payable by the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Finance Document (other than any Obligations pursuant to a Required Hedging Agreement) shall bear interest at a rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to (x) in the case of Loans, the sum of (i) the interest rate otherwise applicable hereunder and (ii) 2.00% and (y) in the case of any other Obligations, the sum of (i) the Base Rate in effect from time to time, (ii) the Applicable Margin and (iii) 2.00%, in each case with such interest to be payable on demand.

(d) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date, (ii) in respect of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan exceeds three months, interest on such Eurodollar Loan shall be payable every three months after the beginning of such Interest Period, and (iii) in respect of each Loan, on any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid), conversion (on the amount converted), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest payable in accordance with Section 2.11(c) shall be payable as provided therein.

(e) On each Interest Determination Date in respect of any Eurodollar Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Loans or to any portion thereof and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.12 Interest Periods. At the time it gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making or continuation of, or conversion into, any Eurodollar Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurodollar Loan (in

the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the applicable Borrower shall have the right to elect, by giving the Administrative Agent written notice thereof, the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Eurodollar Loans, which Interest Period shall, at the option of such Borrower, be a one, two, three or six month period; provided, however, that:

(i) all Eurodollar Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall have the same Interest Period;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such Loan (including the date of conversion thereof from a Loan of a different Type) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurodollar Loan shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period;

(iii) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such month;

(iv) if any Interest Period would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to carry such Interest Period into another month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(v) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Tranche A Final Maturity Date or Tranche B Final Maturity Date, as applicable;

(vi) no Interest Period with respect to a Term Loan may be elected that would extend beyond any applicable Term Loan Principal Payment Date unless the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of the same Tranche outstanding having Interest Periods which end on or before such date shall be at least equal to or greater than the principal due in respect of such Term Loan on such date; and

(vii) no Interest Period in respect of any Loans shall be selected at any time when a Default or Event of Default exists.

If upon the expiration of any Interest Period, the Borrowers have failed to elect, or are not permitted to elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Loans as provided above, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

(a) Unless otherwise previously terminated, the Tranche A Construction Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Tranche A Construction Loan Maturity Date; provided that if such date is also the Facility A Conversion Date, the Tranche A Term Loan Commitments shall terminate only upon and after giving effect to the conversion of the Tranche A Construction Loans into Tranche A Term Loans on such date.

(b) Unless otherwise previously terminated, the Tranche B Construction Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Tranche B Construction Loan Maturity Date; provided that if such date is also the Facility B Conversion Date, the Tranche B Term Loan Commitments shall terminate only upon and after giving effect to the conversion of the Tranche B Construction Loans into Tranche B Term Loans on such date.

2.14 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Finance Party under any Finance Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable

Finance Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes and shall timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent.

(c) Indemnification by the Finance Parties. The Finance Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that a Finance Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Finance Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.11(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Finance Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Finance Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Finance Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Finance Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Finance Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed

documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

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

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

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

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

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

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

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Survival.

(h) Defined Term. For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

2.15 Illegality.

(a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law, or any change in any Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Law, makes 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 a Eurodollar Loan and such determination is applied to other borrowers of such Lender or its Affiliates, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make such Loan shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law, or any change in any Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Law, makes 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 a Eurodollar Loan and such determination is applied to other borrowers of such Lender or its Affiliates, the Borrowers shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay in full the Eurodollar Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 2.16 or 2.17, if any, either on the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Loan, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loan. If the Borrowers are required so to prepay any Eurodollar Loan, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrowers shall, notwithstanding any otherwise applicable restriction, prohibition or requirement herein, borrow (and be deemed to have so borrowed) from the affected Lender a Base Rate Loan in the amount of the principal amount of the Eurodollar Loan so prepaid.

(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Borrowers may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, that all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as Eurodollar Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans.

(d) Before giving notice to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.15, the affected Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

2.16 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be:

(i) any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loans,

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

(iii) any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount),

then the Borrowers shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs; provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers in writing of the increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding any Capital Adequacy Regulation has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital to a level below that which such lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) and such determination is applied to other borrowers of such Lender or its Affiliates, then, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers in writing of the increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(c) Before giving notice to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.16(a), the affected Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office with respect to its Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

2.17 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of either Borrower to make on a timely basis any scheduled payment of principal of any Loan;

(b) the failure of either Borrower to borrow or convert a Loan after such Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation;

(d) subject to Section 8.7(d), the prepayment or repayment (including pursuant to Section 8.1, 8.2 or 8.3) or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of a Eurodollar Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period; or

(e) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

2.18 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loans, or that the Eurodollar Rate applicable for any Interest Period with respect to a Eurodollar Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Loan and such determination is applied to other borrowers of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert any Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan hereunder shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon the receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation then submitted by them. If the Borrowers do not revoke any such notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrowers, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrowers, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Eurodollar Loans.

2.19 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrowers in Sections 2.14 through 2.18 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the Notes and all other Obligations (other than Obligations under any Required Hedging Agreement).

2.20 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (x) is owed increased costs or other amounts under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, (y) shall have become a Defaulting Lender or (z) fails to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Finance Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender (or each Lender directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default then exists and (in the case of (x) above) such Lender has not changed its Applicable Lending Office with the effect of eliminating such increased cost or other amount, to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions

(collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that (a) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.20, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Acceptances pursuant to Section 11.11 hereof pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender at par and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (i) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and (ii) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender and (b) all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those specifically described in clause (a) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation pursuant to clause (a) above and the payment of the amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder, and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to Sections 11.1, 11.2 and 11.18 and any other indemnification or expense reimbursement provisions under this Agreement or any other Finance Document, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender in accordance with their terms. Nothing in this Section 2.20 shall be deemed to prejudice any other rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.

2.21 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth herein (including in the definition of Required Lenders).

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by any Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 9 or otherwise) or received by any Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.14 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Agent hereunder; second, if requested by the Borrowers (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent

jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (ii) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 and, if applicable, Section 3.2, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.21(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto

(iii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees pursuant to Section 8.6(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.22 Interest During Construction.

(a) Deemed Loan Requests. Unless a Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at least five Business Days prior to the relevant date on which an interest payment is due (such dates, “Interest Payment Dates”) for loans of the applicable Tranche, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the amount of interest due on each Interest Payment Date occurring prior to applicable Conversion Date be paid pursuant to this Section 2.22. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.22(b), each Lender agrees to effect payment of the interest due to such Lender on each such Interest Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.22(c). If a Borrower advises the Administrative Agent that it elects not to have any such interest paid pursuant to this Section 2.22, or if the conditions for any such payment set forth in Section 2.22(b) are not satisfied, then Administrative Agent shall so advise the Lenders (and the Borrowers in the case of a failure to satisfy such conditions) in writing, in which case no Loans of such Tranche shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.22 on the relevant Interest Payment Date and such Borrower shall pay the amount of interest due on such Interest Payment Date in cash.

(b) Conditions. The Borrowers shall not be entitled to make any payment of interest pursuant to this Section 2.22 unless (i) the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.3(b), (c), (h), and (k) are determined by the Administrative Agent to have been satisfied with respect to the Loans to be funded to effect such payment pursuant to Section 2.22(c), (ii) if and to the extent such Loans are to be Tranche A Construction Loans, the initial Tranche A Construction Loans have already been funded and made, and (iii) if and to the extent such Loans are to be Tranche B Construction Loans, the initial Tranche B Construction Loans have already been funded and made.

(c) Deemed Funding and Payment. Subject to Sections 2.22(a) and (b), on each Interest Payment Date occurring before the Conversion Date, each Lender shall book a Loan of the applicable Tranche to each Borrower in an amount equal to the amount of interest due from such Borrower to such Lender on such Interest Payment Date, and shall apply the proceeds of such Loan to payment of the interest owed by such Borrower to such Lender on such Interest Payment Date. Each such Loan shall be a Eurodollar Loan with an Interest Period of one month unless converted pursuant to Section 2.10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall (i) cause the amount of Tranche A Construction Loans or Tranche B Construction Loans disbursed by any Lender to exceed such Lender’s Tranche A Construction Loan Commitment or Tranche B Construction Loan Commitment, as applicable or (ii) cause the amount of Total Funded Construction Loans to exceed the Total Construction Commitment.

Each Borrower hereby waives any and every claim for recovery from the Secured Parties for any and all loss or damage covered by any of the insurance policies to be maintained under this Agreement to the extent that such loss or damage is recovered under any such policy. Inasmuch as the foregoing waiver will preclude the assignment of any such claim to the extent of such recovery, by subrogation (or otherwise), to an insurance company (or other Person), such Borrower shall give written notice of the terms of such waiver to each insurance company which has issued, or which may issue in the future, any such policy of insurance (if such notice is required by the insurance policy) and shall cause each such insurance policy to be properly endorsed by the issuer thereof to, or to otherwise contain one or more provisions that, prevent the invalidation of the insurance coverage provided thereby by reason of such waiver.

(d) Amendment of Requirements. The Administrative Agent (acting on the instruction of the Required Lenders) may at any time, upon written notice to the Borrowers, amend the requirements (including the amount and scope of insurance coverage) and approved insurance companies described in this Section 5.9 due to (i) new information (Project exposure or insurance products) not known on the Closing Date which in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent (acting on the instruction of the Required Lenders) either renders required coverage materially inadequate (when compared to insurance carried by prudent operators and owners of facilities similar to the Project) or materially reduces the financial ability of the approved insurance companies to pay claims, (ii) changed circumstances after the Closing Date which in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent (acting on the instruction of the Required Lenders) either render required coverage materially inadequate (when compared to insurance carried by prudent operators and owners of facilities similar to the Project) or materially reduce the financial ability of the approved insurance companies to pay claims, or (iii) more appropriate insurance heretofore unavailable or unaffordable becomes available on commercially reasonable terms; provided that in the case of this clause (iii), such changes shall be limited to requiring the Borrowers to obtain such insurance.

(iii) Loss Adjustment and Settlement. A loss under any builders all risk, delay in startup, marine cargo, marine cargo delayed in startup, machinery breakdown, physical damage or business interruption insurance policies shall be adjusted with the insurance companies, including the filing in a timely manner of appropriate proceedings, by the applicable Borrower, subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent if such loss is in excess of $500,000. In addition the applicable Borrower may in its reasonable judgment consent to the settlement of any loss, provided that in the event that the amount of the loss exceeds $500,000 the terms of such settlement are approved by the Administrative Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders).

(iv) Policy Cancellation and Change. Subject to the exceptions set forth on Appendix A (if any) and with the exception of any builders all risk policy which shall be non-cancelable except for nonpayment of premiums (10 days) or for non-compliance with an insurance company’s recommendations, all policies of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be endorsed so that if at any time they should be canceled, or coverage be reduced in any manner, such cancellation or reduction shall not be effective as to the Secured Parties for forty-five (45) days, except for non-payment of premium which shall be for ten (10) days, after receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice from such insurer of such cancellation or reduction.

(v) Miscellaneous Policy Provisions. Subject to the exceptions set forth on Appendix A (if any) , any builders all risk, delay in startup, marine cargo, marine cargo delay in startup, machinery breakdown, physical damage or business interruption insurance policies shall (A) not include any annual or term aggregate limits of liability or clause requiring the payment of an additional premium to reinstate the limits after loss except as regards the insurance applicable to the perils of flood, earth movement, sabotage and terrorism, (B) include the Secured Parties as additional named insureds as their interests may appear, and (C) include a clause requiring the insurer to make final payment on any claim within ninety (90) days after the submission of proof of loss and its acceptance by the insurer.

Subject to the exceptions set forth on Appendix A (if any), all policies shall insure the interests of the Secured Parties regardless of any breach or violation by a Borrower or any other Person of warranties, declarations or conditions contained in such policies, or any action or inaction of a Borrower or others. This provision may be satisfied through the use of an acceptable multi-insured endorsement.

(vii) Acceptable Policy Terms and Conditions. Except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, all policies of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be the same in all material respects as the policies furnished to the Insurance Advisor prior to the applicable Initial Funding Date.

Such certification shall identify underwriters, the type of insurance, the insurance limits and the policy term and shall specifically list the special provisions enumerated for such insurance required by this Section 5.9. The schedule of insurance shall include the name of the insurance company, policy number, type of insurance, major limits of liability and expiration date of the insurance policies.

(h) Failure to Maintain Insurance. In the event a Borrower fails, or fails to cause any Contractor, to take out or maintain the full insurance coverage required to be taken out and maintained by such Party by this Section 5.9, the Administrative Agent, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice (unless the aforementioned insurance would lapse within such period, in which event notice should be given as soon as possible) to such Borrower of any such failure, may (but shall not be obligated to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same.

Any failure on the part of any Secured Party to pursue or obtain the evidence of insurance required by this Agreement and/or failure of any Secured Party to point out any non-compliance of such evidence of insurance shall not constitute a waiver of any of the insurance requirements in this Agreement.

(j) Waivers of Insurance Requirements.

(i) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable judgment (after consultation with the Insurance Advisor) that any insurance (including the limits or deductibles thereof) required to be maintained by this Section 5.9 is not available on commercially reasonable terms due to prevailing conditions in the commercial insurance market at such time, then upon the written request of the Borrowers together with a written report of the Borrowers’ insurance broker or another independent insurance broker of nationally recognized standing in the insurance industry (x) certifying that such insurance is not available on commercially reasonable terms (and, in any case where the required maximum coverage is not reasonably available, certifying as to the maximum amount which is so available), (y) explaining in detail the basis for such broker’s conclusions, and (z) containing such other information as the Administrative Agent or the Insurance Advisor may reasonably request, the Administrative Agent may (after consultation with the Insurance Advisor) temporarily waive such requirement; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole judgment, decline to waive any such insurance requirement without the consent of the Required Lenders.

(iii) Any waiver granted pursuant to clause (i) above shall expire, without further action by any party, immediately upon (A) such waived insurance requirement becoming available on commercially reasonable terms, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Insurance Advisor) or (B) failure of the Borrowers to deliver an updated insurance report pursuant to clause (ii) above.

are to be repaid or prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Eurodollar Loans were made; provided that (i) Subject to Section 8.7(d), repayments and prepayments of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all such Eurodollar Loans with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such date of required repayment or prepayment and all Base Rate Loans have been paid in full, and (ii) each repayment or prepayment of Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion.

(c) All computations of interest and Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed; provided that computations of interest on Base Rate Loans calculated using the Prime Rate hereunder shall be made on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed.

8.5 Net Payments. All payments made by the Borrowers hereunder or under any Note shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

8.6 Fees.

(a) Construction Loan Commitment Fee. The Borrowers agree (jointly and severally) to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender, (i) a commitment fee from the Closing Date through the end of the Tranche A Construction Loan Availability Period, computed at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the daily average Modified Unutilized Tranche A Construction Loan Commitment Amount of such Lender during such period and (ii) a commitment fee from the Closing Date through the end of the Tranche B Construction Loan Availability Period, computed at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the daily average Modified Unutilized Tranche B Construction Loan Commitment Amount of such Lender during such period. Such fees shall be due and payable in arrears on (x) each Quarterly Date from the Closing Date through the end of the Tranche A Construction Loan Availability Period and through the end of the Tranche B Construction Loan Availability Period, as applicable and (y) the last day of the Tranche A Construction Loan Availability Period and the Tranche B Construction Loan Availability Period, as applicable.

(b) Upfront Commitment Fees. As set forth in the Warrant Agreement, Sponsor will issue on the Closing Date (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) to GE Energy Financial Services, Inc., on behalf of the Borrowers, warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Sponsor common stock as an upfront commitment fee.

(c) Additional Fees. The Borrowers agree (jointly and severally) to pay to the Lenders and the Agents, for their respective accounts, such other fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrowers and such Persons.

8.7 Application of Payments; Sharing

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.7, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrowers in respect of any Obligations, it shall promptly distribute such payment to the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, as applicable, pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

106

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Transaction Documents, or otherwise), which, in any such case, is in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Obligations (other than Obligations under any Required Hedging Agreement) obtained by all Lenders, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations (other than Obligations under any Required Hedging Agreement) of the Borrowers to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) All prepayments of Obligations pursuant to Sections 8.3(a) through (i) shall be applied as follows: (i) in the case of the Tranche A Borrower (A) first to prepay all outstanding Tranche A Obligations until all such Obligations have been paid in full and (B) second to prepay all outstanding Tranche B Obligations until all such Obligations have been paid in full; and (ii) in the case of the Tranche B Borrower (A) first to prepay all outstanding Tranche B Obligations until all such Obligations have been paid in full and (B) second to prepay all outstanding Tranche A Obligations until all such Obligations have been paid in full.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, but only in respect of any mandatory prepayment under Section 8.3, the Borrowers shall have the right, by giving five Business Days’ notice to Administrative Agent, in lieu of prepaying a Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loan, to deposit or cause Administrative Agent to deposit into the applicable Debt Service and Related Payments Account an amount equal to the Eurodollar Loans to be prepaid. Such funds shall be held in the applicable Debt Service and Related Payments Account until the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to the Eurodollar Loan to be prepaid at which time such amount shall be used to prepay such Eurodollar Loan and any interest accrued on such amount shall be deposited into the Project Revenues Account. The deposit of amounts into the applicable Debt Service and Related Payments Account shall be deemed to satisfy Borrower’s obligation to make the relevant mandatory prepayment on its due date, but shall not, however, constitute a prepayment of Loans and all Loans to be prepaid using the proceeds from the applicable Debt Service and Related Payments Account shall continue to accrue interest at the then applicable interest rate for such Loans until actually prepaid. All amounts in the applicable Debt Service and Related Payments Account shall only be invested in Permitted Investments as directed in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent. Borrower shall bear the expense and risk of any such investment.

107

SECTION 10. THE AGENTS

10.1 Appointment.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 10.9 hereof) designates and appoints General Electric Capital Corporation as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Finance Document to which the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) is a party and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) by the terms of this Agreement or any such other Finance Document, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(b) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 6.4 of the Collateral Account Agreement and Section 10.9 hereof) consents to the appointment by the Administrative Agent of the Depositary Agent under the Collateral Account Agreement and each other Finance Document to which it is a party, and hereby authorizes such Depositary Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of the Finance Documents, and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(c) Each of the Lenders authorizes and directs, respectively, each Agent to execute, deliver and perform each of the Finance Documents to which such Agent is or is intended to be a party and each Lender agrees to be bound by all of the agreements of such Agent contained in the Finance Documents.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Finance Document, none of the Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Finance Documents to which such Agent is a party, nor shall any of the Agents 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 Finance Document or otherwise exist against any of the Agents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the terms “Administrative Agent”, “Collateral Agent” and “Depositary

114

Agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Depositary Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such terms are used merely as a matter of market custom, and are intended to create or reflect only a relationship between independent contracting parties.

10.2 Delegation of Duties. Any of the Agents may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Finance 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. None of the Agents shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

10.3 Liability of the Agents. None of the Agents or any 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 Transaction Document (other than any Project Document to which it is a party) or the transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation, any consents, approvals or objections provided by any Agent under the Collateral Account Agreement (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Secured Parties or any other Person for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by a Borrower or any Affiliate of a Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the value of or title to any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for any failure of a Borrower or any other party to any Transaction Document (other than itself) to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the Agents or any Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Secured Party 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 Transaction Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of a Borrower or any Affiliate of a Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Finance Documents, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral, if, in the judgment of the Collateral Agent, such action would be in violation of any applicable Law, rule or regulation, or if the Collateral Agent reasonably believes that such action would result in the incurrence of liability by the Collateral Agent for which it is not fully indemnified

10.4 Reliance by the Agents. Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, e-mail, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telecopy, telex, teletype, or telephone message, statement, order 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 a Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by any such Agent. Each Agent may deem and treat the payee of any note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with such Agent. Each of the Agents shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than any Project Document to which it or any of its Affiliates is a party) unless such Agent shall first

115

receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, where unanimous consent of the Lenders is expressly required hereunder, all of the Lenders) as such Agent deems appropriate or such Agent 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. Each of the Agents shall in all cases be fully protected by the Lenders in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or, where unanimous consent of the Lenders is expressly required hereunder, all of the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Secured Parties.

10.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless such Agent shall have actually received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” If any Agent actually receives any such notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall give notice thereof to each other Agent and the Lenders. Each Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be reasonably requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with this Section 10; provided, however, that unless and until such Agent has received any such request, such 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 or in the best interest of the Lenders.

10.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents or the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any of the Agents hereafter taken, including any review of the Projects or of the affairs of the Borrowers, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent or Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or 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 each Borrower, the Projects, the value of and title to any Collateral, 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 hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or 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 Transaction 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 each Borrower and the Projects. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required pursuant to any Finance Document to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents, the Agents 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 Projects or of any Borrower which may come into the possession of any Agent or any of the Agent-Related Persons.

10.7 Indemnification of Agents.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent (in its capacity as such) and 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), pro rata in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent or the Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent (in its capacity as such) upon demand for its ratable share as provided above of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable Attorney Costs) incurred by such 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 Transaction Document or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower.

(c) The undertakings of the Lenders in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of any Agent.

10.8 Agents in Individual Capacities. Each of the Agents and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each Borrower or its respective Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding a Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such Affiliates) and acknowledge that the Agents shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. Any Agent which is also a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include such Agent in its individual capacity.

10.9 Successor Agents.

(a) The Administrative Agent may, on the instructions of the Required Lenders, remove and replace the Depositary Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Collateral Account Agreement and may, on the instructions of the Required Banks, direct the Depositary Agent according to the terms of this Agreement and the relevant Finance Documents.

(b) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided below, following the Conversion Date, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers, and the

117

Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be removed at any time following the Conversion Date with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have been appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment with thirty (30) days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the giving of any notice of removal of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, then the Borrowers may appoint a successor to such Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. If the Collateral Agent shall resign or be removed pursuant to the foregoing provisions, upon the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent hereunder, the former Collateral Agent shall deliver all Collateral then in its possession to the successor Collateral Agent. Upon its appointment as a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such resigning or removed Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and such resigning Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or removed Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c) After any Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Section 10 and of Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent.

(b) Environmental Indemnity

(i) Without in any way limiting the generality of the other provisions contained in this Section 11.2, each Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Person, whether as beneficiary of any of the Security Documents, as a mortgagee in possession, or as successor-in-interest to such Borrower by foreclosure deed or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages and punitive claims payable to third parties pursuant to a final judgment in a third-party claim), penalties, fees, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements (including Attorney Costs and consultants’ fees and disbursements) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) that may at any time be incurred by, imposed on, asserted or awarded against any such Indemnified Person directly or indirectly based on, or arising out of or resulting from, (A) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on, in, under or affecting all or any portion of the Sites or the Projects whether or not the same originates or emanates from the Sites or the Projects or any property adjoining or adjacent to the Sites or from properties at which any Hazardous Materials generated, stored or handled at or by the Projects were Released or disposed of, (B) any Environmental Claim against an Indemnified Person relating to the Sites or the Projects, or (C) any liability incurred by an Indemnified Person under Environmental Laws as a result of the exercise of any Secured Party’s rights under any of the provisions of the Security Documents (the “Indemnified Matters”), whether any of the Indemnified Matters arise before or after foreclosure of any of the Security Interests or other taking of

119

title to all or any portion of the Collateral by any Secured Party, including (x) the costs of remediation of Hazardous Materials required at any portion of the Sites or the Projects or any property adjoining or adjacent to the Sites pursuant to Environmental Law or as the result of the resolution of an Environmental Claim, (y) additional costs required to take reasonable precautions to protect against the Release of Hazardous Materials on, in, under or affecting the Sites or the Projects, into the air, any body of water, any other public domain or any surrounding areas, and (z) costs incurred to comply, in connection with all or any portion of the Sites or any surrounding areas, with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to Hazardous Materials, regardless of whether any of the Indemnified Matters or Losses are caused by or result from the negligence or strict liability of any Indemnified Person, except with respect to any such Indemnified Matter to the extent determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(ii) In no event shall any site visit, observation, or testing by any Indemnified Person (or any representative of any such Person) be deemed to be a representation or warranty that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in, on, or under, the Sites or the Projects, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any Environmental Law. Neither the Borrowers nor any other Person is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation, or testing by any Indemnified Person. No Indemnified Person owes any duty of care to protect the Borrowers or any other Person against, or to inform the Borrowers or any other Person of, any Hazardous Materials or any other adverse condition affecting the Sites, the Facilities or the Projects. No Indemnified Person shall be obligated to disclose to the Borrowers or any other Person any report or findings made as a result of, or in connection with, any site visit, observation, or testing by any Indemnified Person.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 11.2(b) shall not (i) require the Borrowers to indemnify any Lender Affiliate Project Participant for any Losses arising as a result of any action or inaction of such Lender Affiliate Project Participant under the applicable Lender Affiliate Project Document or (ii) release any Lender Affiliate Project Participant from any of its obligations under any Lender Affiliate Project Document.

(c) Survival; Defense. The obligations in this Section 11.2 shall survive payment of the Loans and all other Obligations. At the election of any Indemnified Person, each Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section 11.2 shall include the obligation to defend such Indemnified Person using legal counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrowers. All amounts owing under this Section 11.2 shall be paid within five (5) days after demand.

(d) Contribution. To the extent that any undertaking in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 11.2 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Borrower will contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of such undertaking.

120

(e) Settlement. So long as the Borrowers are in compliance with their obligations under this Section 11.2, the Borrowers shall not be liable to any Indemnified Person under this Section 11.2 for any settlement made by such Indemnified Person without the Borrowers’ consent.

Each Borrower agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (other than against a Lender Affiliate Project Party pursuant to a Lender Affiliate Project Document), the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (other than against a Lender Affiliate Project Party pursuant to a Lender Affiliate Project Document).

11.3 Notices.

(a) All notices, requests, demands, documents, reports, information, financial statements, certificates, materials and other communications (collectively, the “Communications”) provided for hereunder shall be in writing including, unless the context expressly otherwise provides, by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including by email and, with respect to Communications by a Borrower to the Lenders, as a result of the same having been posted on the Platform by the Administrative Agent following delivery thereof by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent as provided herein); provided that any matter transmitted by a Borrower by facsimile or other electronic transmission (other than any such transmissions which were posted on the Platform for the benefit of the Lenders) (i) shall be immediately confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on the applicable signature page hereof and (ii) shall be followed promptly by a hard copy original thereof to the Administrative Agent by express courier. All Communications shall be transmitted or delivered to the address, facsimile number or email address specified on the applicable signature page hereof or to such other address, facsimile number or email address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto.

(b) All Communications (i) sent by express courier will be effective upon delivery to or refusal to accept delivery by the addressee and (ii) transmitted by facsimile or other electronic transmission will be effective when sent and confirmation of receipt received by the sender; except that all Communications to any Agent shall not be effective until actually received.

(c) Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any agreement of the Secured Parties to receive certain Communications by telephone, facsimile or other electronic transmission is solely for the convenience and at the request of such Borrower. The Secured Parties shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by a Borrower to give such Communications and the Secured Parties shall not have any liability to the Borrowers or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by any of the Secured Parties in reliance upon such telephonic, facsimile or other electronically transmitted Communications.

121

(d) Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that any Agent may make any Communications received from the Borrowers available to the Lenders by posting such Communications on a secure electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any Communications or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in any Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent in connection with any Communications or the Platform. In no event shall any Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents, attorneys-in-fact and Affiliates have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of a Borrower’s or such Agent’s transmission of any Communications through the Internet, except to the extent the liability of such Person is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

11.4 Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. The Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Finance Documents.

11.5 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any of the Secured Parties or the holder of any Note or Loan in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Finance Document and no course of dealing between any Borrower and any Secured Party or the holder of any Note or Loan shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Finance Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on a Borrower in any case shall entitle such Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Party or the holder of any Note or Loan to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. All remedies, either under this Agreement or any other Finance Document or pursuant to any applicable Law or otherwise afforded to any Secured Party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

11.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The agreement of each Lender to make extensions of credit to the Borrowers on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Finance Documents is solely for the benefit of the Borrowers, and no other Person (including any other Project Participant, or any contractor, sub-contractor, supplier, worker, carrier, warehouseman, materialman or vendor furnishing supplies, goods or services to or for the benefit of a Borrower or a Project or receiving services from a Project) shall have any rights hereunder against any Secured Party with respect to the Finance Documents, the Loans, the proceeds thereof or otherwise.

122

11.7 Reinstatement. To the extent that any Secured Party receives any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to such Borrower or to its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise, then to the extent of the amount so required to be repaid, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the Obligations as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

11.8 No Immunity. To the extent that a Borrower may be entitled, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to this Agreement or any other Finance Document, to claim for itself or its revenues, assets or Properties any immunity from suit, the jurisdiction of any court, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, set-off execution of a judgment or any other legal process, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed to such Person such an immunity (whether or not claimed), the Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the applicable jurisdiction.

11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

11.10 Amendment or Waiver.

(a) No provision of this Agreement or any other Finance Document may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived, except by a written instrument signed by the Required Lenders (taking into account the provisions in Section 2.21 hereof) and each Finance Party party thereto, and, to the extent its rights or obligations may be affected thereby, the Agent or Agents party thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Construction Loan Commitments of all Lenders or the Term Loan Commitments of all Lenders, shall not constitute an increase or extension of any Commitment of any Lender), without the prior written consent of such Lender, (ii) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Finance Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to any Lender hereunder or under any other Finance Document, without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest (other than the application of Default Interest, which may be waived by the Required Lenders) specified in any Finance Document on, any Loan of any Lender, without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral except as shall be otherwise provided in any Security Document or other Finance Document or consent to the assignment or transfer by either Borrower of any of its respective obligations under this Agreement or any other Finance Document, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (v) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent contained in Section 3 hereof, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (vi) amend, modify or

123

waive any provision of this Section 11.10 or Section 11.1 or 11.2 hereof, without the prior written consent of each Lender, or (vii) reduce the percentage specified in or otherwise amend the definition of Required Lenders without the prior written consent of each Lender; provided that no provision of this Agreement or any other Finance Document may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived without the prior written consent of each Secured Swap Counterparty or, in the case of a Required Hedging Agreement provided or arranged by GE Capital or an Affiliate of GE Capital, GE Capital, if such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver would alter the ratable treatment of the Obligations owing to any Secured Swap Counterparty arising under Required Hedging Agreements resulting in such Obligations being junior in right of payment to principal on the Loans or would result in such Obligations becoming unsecured (other than releases of Liens affecting all Lenders and otherwise permitted in accordance with the terms hereof) in each case in a a manner adverse to any Secured Swap Counterparty; provided, further, that any reference to “Finance Documents” in this Section 11.10(a) shall be deemed to exclude any Required Hedging Agreement.

(b) Any waiver and any amendment, supplement or modification made or entered into in accordance with Section 11.10(a) hereof shall be binding upon the Borrowers and the Secured Parties.

11.11 Assignments, Participations, etc.

(a) Prior to the occurrence of the Conversion Date with respect to both Tranche A Loans and Tranche B Loans, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Lender agrees that it shall not be permitted to assign its interest in the Loans or its other rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Finance Documents. On or after the occurrence of such Conversion Dates (and at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), any Lender may, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers, in each case not to be unreasonably withheld, at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Assignee”) (provided that no written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to (i) an entity that is an Affiliate of such Lender or (ii) another Lender and provided that if any Borrower fails to respond to any such request for written consent within five (5) Business Days, such Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment) all or any part of any Loan and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and under the other Finance Documents; provided that (A) (x) each such assignment by a Lender of its Loans, its Notes or its Commitments shall be made in such a manner so that the same portion of its Loans, its Notes and Commitments is assigned to the Assignee, (y) each such assignment by a Lender of its Loans, its Notes or its Commitments of a particular Tranche shall be made in such a manner so that the same portion of its Loans, its Notes and Commitments of each other Tranche is assigned to the Assignee and (z) Construction Loans, Construction Notes, and Construction Loan Commitments of a particular Tranche shall only be assigned contemporaneously with Term Loan Commitments of the same Tranche, (B) in the case of an assignment of any part of a Loan or share of an assignor’s commitments to any Assignee, such assignment shall not be for an amount less than $5,000,000 or, if less, such assignor’s entire interest in the Loans and/or the Commitments (provided that, in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Approved Funds, such Approved Funds shall be treated as one Assignee for purposes of determining

124

compliance with the minimum assignment size referred to above), and (C) the Borrower and the Agents may continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned until (1) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent by such assigning Lender and the Assignee, (2) the assigning Lender or Assignee has paid to the Administrative Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 (provided that only one processing fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Approved Funds), and (3) the assigning Lender shall have delivered to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance”) with respect to such assignment from the assigning Lender.

(b) From and after the date that the Administrative Agent notifies the assigning Lender and the Borrowers that it has received (and provided its consent with respect to) an executed Assignment and Acceptance 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 hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Finance Documents, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to effect the addition of the Assignee, and any reference to the assigning Lender hereunder or under the other Finance Documents shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to the Assignee to the extent of their respective interests and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Finance Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Finance Documents.

(c) Within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that (i) it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee and (ii) the Assignee has required a Note or Notes evidencing the Assignee’s assigned Commitments and Loans, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a new Note or Notes evidencing the Assignee’s assigned Commitments and Loans and, if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of its Loans, a replacement Note or Notes reflecting the Commitment and the principal amount of the Loans retained by the assigning Lender (such Note or Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Note or Notes held by such Lender).

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.11 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent has the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans and Commitments via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”). At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed Assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be consistent with the other provisions of this Section 11.11. Each assigning Lender and proposed Eligible Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection with effecting any assignment of Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Settlement Service. With the prior

125

approval of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s approval of such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed to have been automatically granted with respect to any transfer effected through the Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of the Loans and the Commitments shall be effected by the provisions set forth herein until the Administrative Agent notifies the Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein.

(e) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(f) Any Lender may at any time on or after the occurrence of the Conversion Date with respect to both Tranche A Loans and Tranche B Loans, without the consent of, or notice to, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Sections 2.14(d) and 10.7 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to Section 11.10 that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, and Section 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (a) of this Section; and (B)

126

shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.17 or 2.14 with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.14 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 8.7 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Finance Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Finance Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the contrary, any Lender may assign all or any portion of the Loans held by it as collateral security; provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Loans or Notes made by the Borrowers to or for the account of the assigning or pledging Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned Loans or Notes to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

11.12 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein, including Sections 11.1, 11.2, 11.13 and 11.18 hereof, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Loans. In addition, each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and no Lender shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of making any extension of credit, any Default or Event of Default which may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that such Lender may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such extension of credit was made.

11.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER FINANCE DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY RELATING HERETO OR THERETO.

Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Secured Party, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any right of setoff pursuant to this Section 11.14, (a) all amounts so set off shall be promptly paid over to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.21 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

11.15 Severability. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and without affecting the validity or enforceability of any provision in any other jurisdiction.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Finance Document to the contrary, each Borrower hereby accepts joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Finance Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Secured Parties under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrower, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 11.24), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction between them. If and to the extent either Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrower will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 11.24 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Borrower, enforceable against each such Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Finance Documents or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(b) The provisions of this Section 11.24 are made for the benefit of the Secured Parties and their successors and assigns, and may be enforced by them from time to time against either or both of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Secured Parties or such successors or assigns first to marshal any of their claims or to exercise any of their rights against the other Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to them against the other Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 11.24 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied.

(c) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Finance Documents, or any payments made by it to the Secured Parties with respect to any of the Obligations or any Collateral, until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which either Borrower may have

131

against the other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Secured Parties hereunder or under any other Finance Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

11.25 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (each, a “Bank Party”) may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrowers. The Borrowers agree that nothing in the Finance Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Bank Parties and the Borrowers, their stockholders or Affiliates. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Bank Parties, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transactions, each Bank Party is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Borrowers, their management, stockholders, creditors or any other person, (iii) no Bank Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrowers with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or in any other Finance Document or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Bank Party or any of its Affiliates has advised or is currently advising the Borrowers on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrowers except the obligations expressly set forth in the Finance Documents and (iv) the Borrowers have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Borrowers further acknowledge and agree that they are responsible for making their own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrowers agree that they will not claim that any Bank Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrowers, their stockholder or Affiliates, in connection with such transactions or the process leading thereto.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND CONSENT AGREEMENT

[Date]

[ ] (the “Contracting Party”) hereby acknowledges to Clean Energy Tranche A LNG Plant, LLC (“Tranche A Borrower”), Clean Energy Tranche B LNG Plant, LLC (“Tranche B Borrower” and together with Tranche A Borrower, the “Borrowers”) and General Electric Capital Corporation, as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) that the Borrowers and the Collateral Agent have advised Contracting Party that the Borrowers and the Collateral Agent have entered into the Security Agreement, dated as of November 7, 2012 (as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Security Agreement”) for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement), and the Contracting Party hereby agrees as follows:

The Contracting Party hereby acknowledges and consents to the pledge and assignment of all right, title and interest of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower in, to and under (but not its obligations, liabilities or duties with respect to) the [ ], dated [ ], between the Contracting Party and Tranche [A] [B] Borrower (as amended by [describe all existing amendments], the “Assigned Agreement”) by Tranche [A] [B] Borrower to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement.

2. The Contracting Party represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Each of this agreement (this “Consent”) and the Assigned Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Contracting Party, is in full force and effect and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Contracting Party enforceable against the Contracting Party in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, debt adjustment, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. [Except as described in paragraph 1 above,] there are no amendments, modifications or supplements (whether by waiver, consent or otherwise) to the Assigned Agreement, either oral or written.

(b) The Borrowers have complied with all conditions precedent required to be complied with by or on behalf of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower on or prior to the date hereof pursuant to the Assigned Agreement.

(c) The Contracting Party is a [ ] duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its [incorporation] [formation]. The Contracting Party has the [corporate] power to carry on its business as currently being conducted and as proposed to be conducted by it. The Contracting Party has the [corporate] power and authority to execute and deliver this Consent and the Assigned Agreement and to perform its obligations under each thereof.

(d) The execution and delivery of this Consent and the Assigned Agreement by the Contracting Party did not, and the fulfillment and compliance with the respective provisions hereof and thereof by the Contracting Party do not and will not, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Contracting Party pursuant to the provisions of, or result in any violation of, the articles, by-laws or any other charter document of the Contracting Party, or any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation, or any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree, to which the Contracting Party is subject.

(e) No consent or approval of or other action by or any notice to or filing with, any court or administrative or governmental body (except those previously obtained) was required in connection with the execution and delivery of the Assigned Agreement, or is required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Consent or the performance by the Contracting Party of its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Contracting Party has obtained all permits, licenses, approvals, consents and exemptions with respect to the performance of its obligations under this Consent and the Assigned Agreement required by applicable laws, statutes, rules and regulations in effect as of the date hereof.

(f) There are no proceedings pending or, to the best of the Contracting Party’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Contracting Party in any court or by or before any governmental authority, arbitration board or tribunal that may result in a material adverse effect upon the property, business, prospects, profits or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Contracting Party, or the ability of the Contracting Party to perform its obligations under this Consent and the Assigned Agreement, and the Contracting Party is not in default with respect to any order of any court, governmental authority, arbitration board or tribunal.

(g) The Contracting Party affirms that it has no notice of any assignment relative to the right, title and interest of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower in, to and under the Assigned Agreement other than the pledge and assignment referred to in paragraph 1.

(h) After giving effect to the pledge and assignment referred to in paragraph 1, and after giving effect to the consent to such pledge and assignment by the Contracting Party, there exists no event or condition (a “Termination Event”) that would, either immediately or with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, entitle either the Contracting Party or Tranche [A] [B] Borrower to terminate or suspend its obligations under the Assigned Agreement and there are no claims or rights of set-off pending by any party to the Assigned Agreement. All amounts due under the Assigned Agreement as of the date hereof have been paid in full.

(i) All representations, warranties and other statements made by the Contracting Party in the Assigned Agreement were true and correct in all material respects as of the date when made and (unless expressly stated to have been made solely as of an earlier date) are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Consent.

3. (a) From and after the date hereof and unless and until the Contracting Party shall have received written notice from the Collateral Agent that the lien of the Security Agreement has been released in full, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay all sums due under the Assigned Agreement by Tranche [A] [B] Borrower and to perform any other act, duty or obligation required of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower thereunder at any time; provided, that no such payment or performance shall be construed as an assumption by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any covenants, agreements or obligations of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower under or in respect of the Assigned Agreement.

(b) The Contracting Party agrees that it will not terminate or suspend its obligations under the Assigned Agreement without first giving the Collateral Agent notice and opportunity to cure as provided below.

(c) If a Termination Event shall occur, and the Contracting Party shall desire to terminate or suspend its obligations under the Assigned Agreement, the Contracting Party first shall give written notice to the Collateral Agent of such Termination Event (which notice shall not be given pursuant to this paragraph until the date upon which the Contracting Party is entitled to terminate or suspend its obligations under the Assigned Agreement). If the Collateral Agent elects to exercise its right to cure as herein provided, it shall, within thirty (30) days after the receipt by it of the notice from the Contracting Party referred to in the preceding sentence, deliver to the Contracting Party a written notice stating that it has elected to exercise such right to cure, together with a written statement of the Collateral Agent that it will promptly commence to cure the Termination Event(s) described in the Contracting Party’s notice, and that it will, during the cure period, diligently attempt in good faith to complete the curing of such Termination Event(s).

(d) The Collateral Agent shall have ninety (90) days after the delivery of the notice by the Collateral Agent referred to in paragraph 3(c) in which to cure the Termination Event(s) specified in such notice; provided that in the case of termination due to monetary defaults, such period to cure the Termination Event(s) shall be thirty (30) days. In the event that any such Termination Event (except monetary defaults) shall be incurable by the Collateral Agent within such ninety (90) day period, the Contracting Party shall not exercise any remedies under the Assigned Agreement if the Collateral Agent shall, within such ninety (90) day period, initiate action to cure such Termination Event and diligently attempt to complete the curing thereof. Any curing of or attempt to cure any Termination Event shall not be construed as an assumption by the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties of any covenants, agreements or obligations of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower under or in respect of the Assigned Agreement.

(e) If, before the Collateral Agent shall have cured any Termination Event pursuant to paragraph 3(d), Tranche [A] [B] Borrower shall have cured such Termination Event, the Contracting Party promptly shall provide the Collateral Agent with notice of such cure and the discontinuance of such Termination Event.

4. (a) Notwithstanding any provision in the Assigned Agreement to the contrary, in the event of the rejection of the Assigned Agreement by a receiver of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower or otherwise pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, at the Collateral Agent’s request, the Contracting Party will enter into a new agreement with the Collateral Agent’s nominee, for the remainder of the originally scheduled term of the Assigned Agreement, effective as of the date of such rejection, with the same covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and limitations as are contained in the Assigned Agreement.

(b) If the Collateral Agent or its nominee is prohibited by any process or injunction issued by any court having jurisdiction of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving Tranche [A] [B] Borrower, from continuing the Assigned Agreement in place of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower or from otherwise exercising any of its rights or remedies hereunder or under the Security Agreement in respect of the Assigned Agreement, then the times specified herein for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any right or benefit

granted to it hereunder (including without limitation the time period for the exercise of any cure rights granted hereunder) shall be extended for the period of such prohibition; provided that the Collateral Agent is diligently pursuing such rights or remedies (to the extent permitted) in such bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise.

5. The Contracting Party acknowledges that upon an exercise of rights and remedies, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume, or cause any purchaser at any foreclosure sale or any assignee or transferee under any instrument of assignment or transfer in lieu of foreclosure to assume, all of the interests, rights and obligations of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower thereafter arising under the Assigned Agreement. If the interest of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower in the Assigned Agreement shall be assumed, sold or transferred as hereinbefore provided, the assuming party shall agree in writing to be bound by and to assume the terms and conditions of the Assigned Agreement and any and all obligations to the Contracting Party arising or accruing thereunder from and after the date of such assumption, and the Contracting Party shall continue to perform its obligations under the Assigned Agreement in favor of the assuming party as if such party had thereafter been named as Tranche [A] [B] Borrower under the Assigned Agreement; provided that if the Collateral Agent (or any entity acting on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any of the other Secured Parties) assumes the Assigned Agreement as provided above, it shall not be personally liable for the performance of the obligations thereunder except to the extent of all of its right, title and interest in and to the Project (as defined in the Security Agreement). Notwithstanding any such assumption or disposition by the Collateral Agent, a purchaser, an assignee or a transferee, Tranche [A] [B] Borrower shall not be released or discharged from and shall remain liable for any and all of its obligations to the Contracting Party arising or accruing under the Assigned Agreement prior to such assumption.

6. The Contracting Party shall make all payments due to Tranche [A] [B] Borrower under the Assigned Agreement to [ ], as Depositary Agent, to Account No. [ ], ABA No. [ ]. All parties hereto agree that each payment by the Contracting Party to the Depositary Agent of amounts due to Tranche [A] [B] Borrower from the Contracting Party under the Assigned Agreement shall satisfy the Contracting Party’s corresponding payment obligation under the Assigned Agreement. All payments required to be made by the Contracting Party under the Assigned Agreement shall be made without any offset, recoupment, abatement, withholding, and reduction or defense whatsoever.

7. The Contracting Party shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, concurrently with the delivery thereof to Tranche [A] [B] Borrower, a copy of each notice, request or demand given by the Contracting Party pursuant to the Assigned Agreement.

8. No amendment or modification of, or waiver by or consent of Tranche [A] [B] Borrower in respect of, any provision of the Assigned Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and the Collateral Agent shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

9. Notice to any party hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be delivered on the earlier of: (a) the date of personal delivery, (b) if deposited in a United States Postal Service depository, postage prepaid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or sent by express courier, in each case addressed to such party at the address indicated below (or at such other address as such party may have theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith), upon delivery or refusal to accept delivery, or (c) if transmitted by facsimile, the date when sent and facsimile confirmation is received; provided that any facsimile communication shall be followed promptly by a hard copy original thereof by express courier:

The Collateral Agent:

The Borrowers:

The Contracting Party:

10. The Contracting Party agrees to execute such acknowledgments or other similar instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request in connection with the transactions provided for in this Consent.

11. This Consent shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Contracting Party, and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

12. This Consent may be executed in one or more counterparts with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

13. THIS CONSENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

14. In the event of any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Consent and those of any other agreement, document or instrument (including, without limitation, the Assigned Agreement), the terms, conditions and provisions of this Consent shall prevail.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused their duly authorized officers to execute and deliver this Consent as of the date first written above.
