(c) The Parallel Debt will become due and payable in the currency or currencies of the Corresponding Obligations as and when one or more of the Corresponding Obligations become due and payable.

(d) Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledges that: (i) the Parallel Debt constitutes an undertaking, obligation and liability of each Loan Party to the Administrative Agent which is transferable and separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the Corresponding Obligations; (ii) the Parallel Debt represents the Administrative Agent’s own separate and independent claim to receive payment of the Parallel Debt from each Loan Party and (iii) the Liens granted under the Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent to secure the Parallel Debt is granted to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Debt and shall not be held in trust, it being understood, that the amount which may become payable by each Loan Party under or pursuant to the Parallel Debt from time to time shall never exceed the aggregate amount which is payable under the relevant Corresponding Obligations from time to time.

(e) For the purpose of this Section 10.20 the Administrative Agent acts in its own name and on behalf of itself (for the benefit of the Secured Parties and each subsequent maker of any Loan by its making thereof) and not as agent or representative of any of the Secured Parties and each subsequent maker of any Loan by its making thereof.

(f) To the extent the Administrative Agent irrevocably receives any amount in payment of the Parallel Debt (the “Received Amount”), the Corresponding Obligations shall be reduced by an aggregate amount (the “Deductible Amount”) equal to the Received Amount in the manner as if the Deductible Amount were received as a payment of the Corresponding Obligations.

All amounts received or recovered by the Administrative Agent from or by the enforcement of any security interest granted to secure the Parallel Debt, shall be applied in accordance with this Agreement. Without limiting or affecting the Administrative Agent’s rights against the Loan Parties (whether under this Section 10.20 or under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Hedge Agreement) each Loan Party acknowledges that (i) nothing in this Section 10.20 shall impose any obligation on the Administrative Agent to advance any sum to any Loan Party or otherwise under any Loan Document or any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Hedge Agreement, except in its capacity as Lender, Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank and (ii) for the purpose of any vote taken under any Loan Document or any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Hedge Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be regarded as having any participation or commitment other than those which it has in its capacity as a Lender, Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank.

Without any requirement of prior request, the Borrower and other Loan Parties shall promptly notify the

Administrative Agent and the advisors to the Lenders of the occurrence of any Waiver Termination Event, the failure to satisfy a condition precedent or other material breach under this Amendment.

(d) The Borrower agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender who consented to this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a signature page hereto prior to the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date, an amendment fee equal to (i) 25 basis points (0.25%) of the portion of the Revolving Credit Facility held by such Lender as of the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date of which (A) 10bps (0.10%) is payable in immediately available funds upon the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date (the fees under this Section 4(d)(i)(A), the “Effective Date Amendment Fees”) and (B) 15bps (0.15%) is earned upon the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date and payable on the last day of the Availability Period and (ii) 400 basis points (4.00%) of the portion of the Revolving Credit Facility held by such Lender as of the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date (the fees under this Section 4(d)(ii), the “Other Amendment Fees”), which shall be fully earned on the date hereof and payable on the last day of the Availability Period, provided, that the Other Amendment Fee shall be waived upon the consummation of the Recapitalization Transaction.

(e) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent or its counsel, Freshfields Bruckhaus Xxxxxxxx US LLP (the “Agent’s Legal Advisor”), may retain a consultant (the “Engineering Consultant”) to (i) review the Templeborough, Margam, Teesside, and Xxxxxx projects (the “Specified Projects”) contracts and (ii) conduct an analysis of the costs to complete the Specified Projects, the viability of the proposed timeline of the Specified Projects and such other matters as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(g) Each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereby jointly and severally agrees, on demand, to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all reasonable and out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders related to or in connection with this Amendment and any documents, agreements or instruments referred to herein, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent’s Legal Advisor, FTI, and any consultants, including any engineering consultant, attorneys or other professionals retained by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders in connection with the Loan Documents, including without limitation, in connection with (i) the negotiation and preparation of this Amendment, the enforcement of their rights and remedies under this Amendment, and (ii) the negotiation, documentation and analysis related to any “work out,” amendment to the Credit

Nothing in this Amendment shall be intended or construed to hold the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Secured Party liable or responsible for any expense, liability or obligation of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, other professionals’ fees and expenses, wages, salaries, payroll taxes, withholdings, benefits or other amounts payable by or on behalf of the Loan Parties).

(j) The Borrower and the other Loan Parties each acknowledge and agree that the breach or failure to comply in any respect with the terms and conditions of this Section 4 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement.

9.	Entire Agreement.

Except as expressly modified hereby, all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and nothing contained in this Amendment shall in any way impair the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, or alter, waive, annul, vary, affect, or impair any provisions, conditions, or covenants contained therein or any rights, powers, or remedies granted therein. This Amendment shall not constitute a modification of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or a course of dealing with Administrative Agent or the Lenders at variance with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents such as to require further notice by Administrative Agent or any Lender to require strict compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the future, except in each case as expressly set forth herein. The Borrower acknowledges and expressly agrees that Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve the right to, and do in fact, require strict compliance with all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (subject to any qualifications set forth therein), as amended herein.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile, electronic email or other electronic imaging means (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.


12.	Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

THIS AMENDMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Sections 10.04, 10.14 and 10.15 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by herein by this reference.


13.	Severability.

If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.


14.	References.

All references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement and each reference to the “Credit Agreement”, (or the defined term “Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” of words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement) in the other Loan Documents shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and giving effect to the amendments contained in this Amendment.


15.	Successors and Assigns.
