(d) no LOC shall have a scheduled expiration date (including all rights of the applicable Applicant or the Beneficiary to require extension thereof) later than the earlier of (i) three (3) years from the date of issuance thereof, and (ii) the Final LOC Expiration Date; provided that any LOC

may by its terms be automatically extendible annually for additional one-year periods (provided that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension to take effect that extends the expiration date of such LOC beyond the Final LOC Expiration Date); provided, further that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such automatic extension if it has determined that such extension would not be permitted, or the Issuing Bank would have no obligation, at such time to issue such LOC as extended under the terms hereof, in which case the Issuing Bank shall notify the Beneficiary thereof of its election not to extend such LOC (which the Issuing Bank agrees to do on and subject to the terms of Section 2.02(c)), and

(e) each LOC shall be a Permitted LOC.

At the request of any Applicant, LOCs may be issued in accordance with this Agreement to support obligations of any Subsidiary Account Party that is a Subsidiary of such Applicant; provided that such Applicant represents, warrants and agrees, without limiting any Obligations of such Applicant hereunder, that: (i) such Subsidiary Account Party has consented to its being referred to in such LOC or otherwise as the "applicant", "account party", "client", or "customer" at whose request or for whose account such LOC is issued; (ii) such Subsidiary Account Party has consented to its not having any rights under this Agreement (including any right to request that the Issuing Bank issue or amend such LOC or that the Issuing Bank dispose of any documents presented under such LOC (or any goods represented thereby) in any particular manner) and to the Issuing Bank's treating such Applicant as the sole Person entitled to exercise such rights with respect to such LOC; (iii) such Subsidiary Account Party is a direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Company at the time of issuance of such LOC (or of any increase or extension thereof); (iv) such Subsidiary Account Party is bound by all the limitations of liability and exculpations in the Issuing Bank's favor contained herein and subject to all the rights and remedies in the Issuing Bank's favor referred to herein as if it were such Applicant; and (v) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to send any notice hereunder to such Subsidiary Account Party, but if the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion chooses to do so, the Issuing Bank may send such notice as provided herein care of such Applicant and such notice shall be effective as if given to such Subsidiary Account Party.

2.02 Issuance; Extensions; Participations; Etc.

(a) Request for Issuance. An Applicant may from time to time request, upon at least three (3) Business Days' notice (given not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time), that the Issuing Bank issue an LOC by delivering to the Issuing Bank (i) an LOC Request specifying the date on which such LOC is to be issued (which shall be a Business Day), a summary of the arrangement to which such LOC pertains, the expiration date thereof, the currency thereof (whether dollars or an Alternate Currency), the Available Amount thereof, and the name and address of the Beneficiary thereof; and (ii) such other documents and agreements as may be required pursuant to the Issuing Bank's customary practices for the issuance of letters of credit (and in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such other documents or agreements, the terms of this Agreement shall govern). The applicable Applicant agrees to promptly deliver to the Parent Guarantor a copy of each request made by it pursuant to the foregoing sentence. If the requirements set forth in the first sentence of Section 2.01 and in Article III are satisfied, the Issuing Bank shall issue the applicable LOC on the date requested in such LOC Request. Upon the issuance of an LOC, the Issuing Bank shall (A) deliver the original of such LOC to the Beneficiary thereof or as the applicable Applicant shall otherwise direct and (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and furnish a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Applicant and the Parent Guarantor.

(b) Request for Extension or Increase. The applicable Applicant may from time to time request, upon at least three (3) Business Days' notice (given not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City

time), that the Issuing Bank amend the expiration date of an outstanding LOC, the Available Amount of an outstanding LOC or the language of an outstanding LOC by delivering to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Parent Guarantor) a written request therefor. Any such request for an extension or increase shall for all purposes hereof (including for purposes of Section 2.02(a)) be treated as though such Applicant had requested issuance of a replacement LOC (except that the Issuing Bank may, if it elects, issue a notice of extension or increase in lieu of issuing a new LOC in substitution for the outstanding LOC).

(c) Automatic Extensions. If any LOC shall provide for the automatic extension of the expiry date thereof unless the Issuing Bank gives notice that such expiry date shall not be extended, then the Issuing Bank shall allow such LOC to be extended unless such extended expiration date would conflict with Section 2.01(d) or unless the Issuing Bank shall have received, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such notice of non-extension must be delivered under such LOC (or such shorter period acceptable to the Issuing Bank), (i) notice from the Required Banks or the Administrative Agent stating that one or more of the conditions precedent to the extension of such LOC have not been satisfied, (ii) notice from the applicable Applicant directing the Issuing Bank not to permit the extension of such LOC, unless (in the case of this clause (ii)) the Required Banks or the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Issuing Bank that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and directed the Issuing Bank not to permit such extension (and the Issuing Bank shall not permit any LOC to be automatically extended if it has received a timely notice of the type described in the foregoing clause (i) or (ii)), or (iii) a Block Notice from the Parent Guarantor.

(d) Limitations on Issuance, Extension and Increase of LOCs. As between the Issuing Bank, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Banks, on the other hand, the Issuing Bank shall be justified and fully protected in issuing a proposed LOC, amending the expiration date, the Available Amount of an outstanding LOC, the language of an outstanding LOC or permitting an outstanding LOC to be automatically extended if the Issuing Bank has not received notice that it is not authorized to issue, amend the Available Amount of, or amend the expiration of, or amend the language of such LOC as described in the foregoing provisions of this Section, in each case notwithstanding any subsequent notice to the Issuing Bank, any knowledge the Issuing Bank may have of an Event of Default, of any event or condition that would constitute an Event of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or both, or of the failure to satisfy any condition specified in the first sentence of Section 2.01 or in Article III, or any other event, condition, or circumstance whatsoever. The Issuing Bank may amend, modify, or supplement LOCs or LOC Requests, or waive compliance with any condition of issuance, extension or payment (other than those conditions set forth in Section 3.02), without the consent of, and without liability to, the Administrative Agent or any Bank; provided that any such amendment, modification, or supplement that amends the expiration date, the Available Amount or the language of an outstanding LOC shall be subject to Section 2.01.

(e) LOC Participating Interests. On the Closing Date with respect to the Existing LOCs and concurrently with the issuance of each other LOC, the Issuing Bank automatically shall be deemed, irrevocably and unconditionally, to have sold, assigned, transferred and conveyed to each other Bank, and each other Bank automatically shall be deemed, irrevocably and unconditionally, severally to have purchased, acquired, accepted, and assumed from the Issuing Bank, without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Issuing Bank, an LOC Participating Interest. On the date that any assignee becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.06, LOC Participating Interests in all outstanding LOCs held by the Bank from which such assignee acquired its interest hereunder shall be proportionately reallocated between such assignee and such assignor Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, each Bank hereby agrees that its obligation to participate in each LOC, its obligation to make the payments specified in Section 2.02(f), and the right of the Issuing Bank to receive such payments in the manner specified therein are each absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional and shall not

be affected by any event, condition, or circumstance whatsoever. The failure of any Bank to make any such payment shall not relieve any other Bank of its funding obligation hereunder on the date due, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to meet its funding obligations hereunder.

(f) Payment by Banks on Account of Unreimbursed Draws. If the Issuing Bank makes a payment under an LOC and is not reimbursed in full therefor in accordance with Section 2.03, the Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof (which notice may be by telephone), and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify each Bank thereof (which notice may be by telephone promptly confirmed in writing). No later than the Administrative Agent's close of business on the date such notice is given (if notice is given by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day) or 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day (if notice is given after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day), each Bank will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the unreimbursed portion of such payment by the Issuing Bank. Amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be forthwith transferred, in immediately available funds, to the Issuing Bank. To the extent that any Bank fails to make such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank on such date, such Bank shall pay such amount on demand, together with interest, for the Issuing Bank's own account, from the date such payment is due from such Bank to the Issuing Bank to the date of payment to the Issuing Bank (before and after judgment) at a rate per annum for each day (i) from the date such payment is due from such Bank to the Issuing Bank to the third Business Day thereafter, equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) thereafter, equal to the Base Rate.

(g) LOC Disbursements. The making of an LOC Disbursement by a Bank with respect to an unreimbursed drawing on an LOC shall reduce, by a like amount, the outstanding LOC Disbursement of the Issuing Bank with respect to such unreimbursed drawing.

(h) LOC Reports. The Issuing Bank will furnish to the Administrative Agent (with copies to the Company and the Parent Guarantor) prompt written notice of each (i) issuance or amendment of the expiry, amount or language of an LOC (including the Available Amount and expiration date thereof), (ii) other amendment to an LOC, (iii) cancellation of an LOC, and (iv) payment on an LOC. The Administrative Agent will furnish to each Bank, Applicant and the Parent Guarantor promptly upon request and, in any case, prior to the fifteenth Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report summarizing issuance and amendment of LOCs issued or amended during the preceding calendar quarter and payments and reductions in Available Amounts during such calendar quarter on all LOCs.

(i) ISP and UCP. Subject to the exculpations, limitations on liability, and other provisions of this Agreement, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the Issuing Bank and the applicable Applicant when a LOC is issued and subject to applicable laws, performance under LOCs by the Issuing Bank will be governed by (i) either (x) the rules of the "International Standby Practices 1998" (ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice on any date any LOC may be issued) or (y) the rules of the "Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits" (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later revision as may be published by the International Chamber of Commerce on any date any LOC may be issued) and (ii) to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the governing law of this Agreement as set forth in Section 8.13.

2.03 Reimbursement Obligations.

(a) Each Applicant agrees to reimburse the Issuing Bank (by making payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.07) in the amount of each LOC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank under each LOC issued at the request of such Applicant, such reimbursement to be made within five (5) Business Days of the date the Issuing Bank notifies such Applicant of such LOC Disbursement. Such reimbursement obligation shall be payable without further notice, protest or demand, all of which are hereby waived, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. To the extent such payment by such Applicant is not timely made in accordance with the terms hereof, such unpaid reimbursement obligation shall be treated as a matured loan extended to such Applicant under this Agreement in respect of which interest shall accrue and be payable. Such Applicant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the respective accounts of the Issuing Bank and the other Banks that have funded their respective shares of such amount remaining unpaid by such Applicant, on demand, interest (at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 1.00%) for each day from the date of such LOC Disbursement to the date such obligation is paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment by such Applicant of interest pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) shall not affect the calculation of fees under the Loan Documents.

(b) The obligation of the applicable Applicant to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LOC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the applicable LOC Request and any other applicable agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any LOC Related Document or any term or provision thereof;

(ii) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any other term of, any obligation of the Company, any other Applicant, or any other Person in respect of any LOC Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any LOC Related Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense, or other right that the Company, any other Applicant, or any other Person may have at any time against any Beneficiary (or any Person for which any such Beneficiary may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the LOC Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any statement or any other document presented under an LOC being forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under an LOC against presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such LOC; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any other Applicant.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(b) shall not excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Applicant against the Issuing Bank following reimbursement of each LOC Disbursement in full by such Applicant to the extent of any direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the

applicable Applicant that are caused by the Issuing Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided that (i) the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have acted with reasonable care if it acts in accordance with standard letter of credit practice of commercial banks located in New York City and (ii) the applicable Applicant’s aggregate remedies against the Issuing Bank for wrongfully honoring a presentation shall not exceed the aggregate amount paid by such Applicant to the Issuing Bank with respect to the honored presentation, plus interest.

(c) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank: (i) may rely upon any oral, telephonic, facsimile, electronic, written, or other communication reasonably believed to have been authorized by any Applicant, (ii) shall not be responsible for errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, advice or document in connection with any LOC, whether transmitted by courier, mail, telex, any other telecommunication, or otherwise (whether or not they be encrypted), or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation (and the Issuing Bank may transmit any LOC terms without translating them), (iii) may honor any presentation under any LOC that appears on its face to substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such LOC, (iv) may replace a purportedly lost, stolen, or destroyed original LOC, waive a requirement for its presentation, or provide a replacement copy to any Beneficiary, (v) if no form of draft is attached as an exhibit to an LOC, may accept as a draft any written or electronic demand or request for payment under such LOC, and may disregard any requirement that such draft bear any particular reference to such LOC, (vi) unless an LOC specifies the means of payment, may make any payment under such LOC by any means it chooses, including by wire transfer of immediately available funds, (vii) may select any branch or affiliate of the Issuing Bank or any other bank or financial institution to act as advising, transferring, confirming, and/or nominated bank under the law and practice of the place where it is located (if the applicable LOC Request or LOC Related Documents requested or authorized advice, transfer, confirmation and/or nomination, as applicable), (viii) may amend any LOC to reflect any change of address or other contact information of any Beneficiary, and (ix) shall not be responsible for any other action or inaction taken or suffered by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any LOC, if required or permitted under any applicable domestic or foreign law or letter of credit practice. None of the circumstances described in this Section 2.03(c) shall impair the Issuing Bank's rights and remedies against any Applicant or place the Issuing Bank under any liability to any Applicant.

(d) The applicable Applicant will notify the Issuing Bank in writing of any objection such Applicant may have to the Issuing Bank's issuance or amendment of any LOC, the Issuing Bank's honor or dishonor of any presentation under any LOC, or any other action or inaction taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with this Agreement or any LOC. The applicable Applicant’s notice of objection must be delivered to the Issuing Bank within fifteen (15) Business Days after such Applicant receives notice of the action or inaction it objects to. The applicable Applicant’s failure to give timely notice of objection shall automatically waive such Applicant’s objection.

(e) If any amount received by the Issuing Bank on account of any LOC Disbursement shall be avoided, rescinded, or otherwise returned or paid over by the Issuing Bank for any reason at any time, whether before or after the termination of this Agreement (or the Issuing Bank believes in good faith that such avoidance, rescission, return or payment is required, whether or not such matter has been adjudicated), each Bank will (except to the extent a corresponding amount received by such Bank on account of its LOC Disbursement relating to the same payment on an LOC has been avoided, rescinded, or otherwise returned or paid over by such Bank), promptly upon notice from the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, pay over to the Administrative Agent at its office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (or such other place as the Administrative Agent shall direct from time to time) and at such account as the Administrative Agent shall direct from time to time for the account of the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds its Pro Rata Share of such amount, together with its Pro Rata Share of any interest or penalties payable with respect thereto.

2.04 Termination or Reduction of Commitments; Increase of Commitments.

(a) The Company may at any time, upon at least three (3) Business Days' notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Commitments in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the Commitment Amounts; provided that each partial reduction (i) shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) shall be made ratably among the Banks in accordance with their Commitment Amounts. The aggregate Commitment Amount shall be permanently reduced to zero on the Termination Date if not sooner reduced to zero. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this paragraph shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, no fees or expenses shall be payable by any Credit Party or Subsidiary Applicant in respect of any such termination.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.04(b), the Company may, from time to time, in each case upon not less than five (5) Business Days' notice to the Administrative Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit F, increase the Commitment Amounts by an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000 on each such occasion, provided that the aggregate Commitment Amount shall not exceed the then-applicable Maximum LOC Amount. The Company may arrange for any such increase to be provided by one or more Banks increasing its then existing Commitment Amount (each Bank so agreeing, in its sole discretion, to an increase in its Commitment Amount, an "Increasing Bank"), or by one or more other financial institutions or other Persons (each such other financial institution or other Person, a "New Bank") providing an initial Commitment; provided that (i) each New Bank shall be subject to the written approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld); (ii) the Applicants and each applicable Increasing Bank or New Bank shall execute and deliver all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify; (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received payment of any and all fees due and payable to it on or prior to the effective date of such increase pursuant to any written agreement with one or more of the Applicants relating to such increase, (iv) the increased portion of the Commitment Amounts shall be on the same terms and conditions as the other Commitment Amounts hereunder; (v) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately before or after giving effect to such increase in the Commitment Amounts; (vi) the representations and warranties of each Applicant contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such increase in the Commitment Amounts, both before and after giving effect thereto; and (vii) no Change in Law shall have occurred, no order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall have been issued, and no litigation shall be pending or threatened, which enjoins, prohibits, or restrains (or with respect to any litigation seeks to enjoin, prohibit, or restrain), the reimbursement of LOC Disbursements, the issuance of any LOC or any participations therein, the consummation of any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, or the use of proceeds of the Facility. The Company’s notice to increase the Commitment Amounts shall constitute the representation and warranty of the Company as to the matters set forth in clauses (v) and (vi) of the preceding sentence. The new Commitment Amounts created pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective on the date agreed to in writing by the Applicants, the Administrative Agent, each applicable Increasing Bank, and each applicable New Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Issuing Bank and each other Bank thereof. On the effective date of any increase in the Commitment Amounts, (w) each applicable Increasing Bank and each applicable New Bank shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds and in the relevant currency or currencies as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Banks, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other relevant Banks, each Bank's portion of the funded Credit Exposure in each

currency to equal its Pro Rata Share (immediately after giving effect to such increase in the aggregate Commitment Amount) of such Credit Exposure in each such currency, (x) each applicable New Bank shall become a Bank, (y) each Bank's Pro Rata Share shall be adjusted in accordance with such increase of the Commitment Amounts, and (z) the respective participations of the Banks shall be adjusted to reflect such new Pro Rata Shares.

Other than amounts erroneously paid as the result of administrative or technical errors, fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. The Commitment Fees due to a Bank shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall expire or be terminated as provided herein.

2.06 Increased Costs and Capital Adequacy.

(a) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank by an amount such Bank reasonably determines to be material of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in LOCs or the making of LOC Disbursements (excluding, for purposes of this Section, any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.08 shall exclusively govern), (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Bank is organized or has its Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof, (iii) any increased cost in respect of which a Bank is entitled to compensation under any other provision of this Agreement, (iv) any payment to the extent that it is attributable to the requirement of any Governmental Authority which regulates a Bank or its holding company which is imposed by reason of the quality of such Bank’s assets or those of its holding company and not generally imposed on all entities of the same kind regulated by the same authority, or (v) any increased cost arising by reason of a Bank voluntarily breaching any lending limit or other similar restriction imposed by any provision of any relevant law or regulation after the introduction thereof), then the Company agrees to pay, from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), which demand

shall include a statement of the basis for such demand and a calculation in reasonable detail of the amount demanded, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Company by such Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error of which the Company has notified such Bank or the Issuing Bank (and the Administrative Agent) promptly after receipt of such certificate.

(b) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank as a result of or based upon the existence of such Bank's commitment to extend credit hereunder and other commitments of such type pursuant hereto that has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s (or such Bank’s parent corporation’s) capital to a level below that which such Bank (or such Bank’s parent corporation) could have achieved but for such Change in Law (excluding, for purposes of this Section, any such increased costs resulting from any change to the extent that it is attributable to the requirement of any Governmental Authority which regulates a Bank or its holding company which is imposed by reason of the quality of such Bank’s assets or those of its holding company and not generally imposed on all entities of the same kind regulated by the same authority) then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Bank or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall include a statement of the basis for such demand and a calculation in reasonable detail of the amount demanded, the Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's commitment to issue or participate in LOCs hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any LOC. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Company by such Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error of which the Company has notified such Bank or the Issuing Bank (and the Administrative Agent) promptly after receipt of such certificate.

(c) Promptly after an officer with responsibility for its participation in the Facility becomes aware of the relevant circumstances and their results, each Bank shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of any event of which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Bank's good faith judgment, otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Bank) to mitigate or avoid, any obligation of the Company to pay any amount pursuant to Section 2.06(a) or 2.06(b) above or pursuant to Section 2.08 (and, if any Bank has given notice of any such event and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Bank shall promptly so notify the Company and the Administrative Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank will designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to the Company of) any event described in the preceding sentence and such designation will not, in such Bank's good faith judgment, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Bank.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.06(a), 2.06(b) or 2.08 (and without limiting Section 2.06(c) above), if any Bank fails to notify the Company of any event or circumstance that will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to Section 2.06(a), 2.06(b) or 2.08 within 180 days after such Bank obtains actual knowledge of such event or circumstance, then such Bank shall not be entitled to compensation from the Company for any amount arising prior to the date that is 180 days before the date on which such Bank notifies the Company of such event or circumstance; provided that, if the event or circumstance giving rise to such entitlement to compensation is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

2.07 Payments and Computations.

(a) The applicable Applicant shall make each payment hereunder irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in dollars, to the Administrative Agent at its office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (or to such other office as the Administrative Agent shall direct from time to time) and at such account as the Administrative Agent shall direct from time to time in immediately available funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that if any amount due hereunder is based upon the Issuing Bank's payment in an Alternate Currency, the applicable Applicant will pay the Dollar Equivalent of such amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter distribute to each Bank its portion of such payment in accordance with the terms hereof. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Bank assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

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

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

(d) All computations of interest on LOC Disbursements for the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or, if applicable, 366 days; all other computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days. All such computations of interest shall be made for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable.

(e) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of any payment of interest or fees.

2.08 Taxes.

(a) All payments by the applicable Applicant hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.07, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is required by law to deduct any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, from or in

respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Bank or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable by the applicable Applicant shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Withholding Agent has made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.08) such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Withholding Agent shall make all such deductions, and (iii) such Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the applicable Applicant shall pay any Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The applicable Applicant shall indemnify each Bank and the Administrative Agent for and hold each of them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.08, imposed on or paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Any such indemnification payment shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the applicable Applicant shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment. In the case of any payment hereunder by or on behalf of such Applicant through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of such Applicant by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Applicant determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Applicant shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this Section 2.08(d) and Section 2.08(e), the terms "United States" and "United States person" shall have the meanings specified in Sections 7701(a)(9) and 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively.

(e) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each initial Bank, and on the date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by the Company (but only so long as such Bank remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Company with two original Internal Revenue Service forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Bank is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement and the Parent Guaranty. If the forms provided by a Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Bank provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax in excess of such lesser rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes only for periods governed by such forms; provided that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, the Bank assignor was entitled to payments under Section 2.08(a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid on or prior to such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Bank assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this Section 2.08(e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that the Bank reasonably

considers to be confidential, the Bank shall give notice thereof to the Company and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information.

(f) For any period with respect to which a Bank that may lawfully do so has failed to provide the Company with the appropriate form described in Section 2.08(e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required under Section 2.08(e) above), such Bank shall not be entitled to indemnification under Sections 2.08(a) or 2.08(c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided that should a Bank become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall take such steps as such Bank shall reasonably request to assist such Bank to recover such Taxes.

(g) Each Bank represents and warrants to each Applicant and the Parent Guarantor that, as of the date such Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, such Bank is entitled to receive payments hereunder from such Applicant and the Parent Guarantor without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Bank determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company, the Parent Guarantor or any Applicant or with respect to which such Applicant has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08 or the Parent Guarantor pursuant to the Parent Guaranty, it shall reimburse to such Applicant or the Parent Guarantor, as the case may be, such amount as the Administrative Agent or such Bank determines to be the proportion of such refund as will leave the Administrative Agent or such Bank (after that reimbursement) in no better or worse position in respect of the worldwide liabilities for Taxes and Other Taxes of the Administrative Agent or such Bank (including in each case its Affiliates) than it would have been if no such indemnity had been required under this Section 2.08. This Section 2.08(h) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.

(i) Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but only to the extent that the Applicants have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Applicants to do so) attributable to such Bank that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.08(i) shall be paid within 30 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Bank a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

2.09 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary or involuntary, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 8.06) (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Bank hereunder at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Bank at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Banks hereunder at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Banks hereunder at such time obtained by all the Banks at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Bank hereunder at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Bank at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Banks hereunder at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Banks hereunder at such time obtained by all of the Banks at such

time, such Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Banks such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each other Bank shall be rescinded and such other Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Bank to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Banks) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Bank's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Applicant agrees that any Bank so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Bank pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of such Applicant in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be.

2.10 Use of Letters of Credit. The Company and each other Applicant covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent and the Banks that the LOCs shall be used for the purposes set out in the definition of “Permitted LOCs” in Section 1.01.

2.11 Replacement of Affected Bank, Nonconsenting Bank, Impacted Bank or Defaulting Bank. At any time that any Bank other than the Issuing Bank is an Affected Bank, a Nonconsenting Bank, an Impacted Bank or a Defaulting Bank, the Company may, at its sole expense (including the assignment fee specified in Section 8.06(a)) and effort and with the written consent of the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), replace such Affected Bank, Nonconsenting Bank, Impacted Bank or Defaulting Bank as a party to this Agreement with one or more other Banks and/or Eligible Assignees, and upon notice from the Company such Affected Bank, Nonconsenting Bank, Impacted Bank or Defaulting Bank (in accordance with Section 2.12) shall assign pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, and without recourse or warranty, its Commitment Amount, its LOC Participating Interests, its LOC Disbursements and all of its other rights and obligations hereunder to such other Banks and/or Eligible Assignees for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of the LOC Disbursements so assigned, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, such Affected Bank's, Nonconsenting Bank's, Impacted Bank’s or Defaulting Bank’s (in accordance with Section 2.12) ratable share of all accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant to Section 2.05 and all other obligations owed to such Affected Bank, Nonconsenting Bank, Impacted Bank or Defaulting Bank (in accordance with Section 2.12) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) no Affected Bank, Impacted Bank or Nonconsenting Bank shall be required to make any such assignment if, prior to its receipt of the notice from the Company referred to in the foregoing sentence, as a result of a waiver or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment cease to apply, and (b) no Nonconsenting Bank shall be required to make any such assignment if at the time of any such proposed assignment, an Event of Default under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing.

2.12 Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank:

(a) Commitment Fees payable in accordance with Section 2.05(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment Amount of such Defaulting Bank;

(b) the Commitment Amount and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included in determining whether all Banks or the Required Banks have taken or may take any action

hereunder (including any amendment, waiver, or consent pursuant to Section 8.01); provided that any waiver, amendment, consent, or other modification that (i) reduces the principal of, or interest on, any reimbursement obligation or any fee or other amount payable to such Defaulting Bank hereunder, (ii) increases such Defaulting Bank's Commitment Amount, (iii) extends the Termination Date, (iv) postpones any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any reimbursement obligation, fee or other amount payable to such Defaulting Bank hereunder, or (iv) requires the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank which affects such Defaulting Bank differently than other affected Banks shall, in each case, require the consent of such Defaulting Bank;

(i) all or any part of such Credit Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Banks' Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Banks' Commitment Amounts and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at such time;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, each Applicant may cash collateralize such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank for so long as such Credit Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if any Applicant cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 2.12(c), the Applicants shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure during the period such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the Credit Exposure of the non-Defaulting Banks is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.12(c), then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to Section 2.05(a) and Section 2.05(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Banks' Pro Rata Shares; or

(v) if any Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.12(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Bank hereunder, all fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank under Section 2.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting Bank's Credit Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such Credit Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

(d) so long as any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, or increase any LOC, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Banks and/or cash collateral provided by the applicable Applicant in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased LOC shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with Section 2.12(c)(i) (and Defaulting Banks shall not participate therein).

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, and the Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the Credit Exposure of the Banks shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank's Commitment Amount and on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such participations in outstanding LOCs and

LOC Disbursements as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such participations in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

2.13 Impacted Banks. So long as any Bank is an Impacted Bank, then notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement to the contrary but subject to Section 2.12, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any LOC, unless the Issuing Bank is satisfied that, after giving effect thereto, the related exposure would be 100% covered by the Commitments of Banks that are neither Defaulting Banks nor Impacted Banks (after giving effect to any reallocation that would be effected under Section 2.12 if each Impacted Bank were treated as a Defaulting Lender) and/or cash collateral provided by the applicable Applicant in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion.

2.14 Certain Provisions Relating to the Issuing Bank.

(a) LOC Requests. The representations, warranties, and covenants by each Applicant under, and the rights and remedies of the Issuing Bank under, any LOC Request or any documents or agreements delivered to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i) relating to any LOC are in addition to, and not in limitation or derogation of, representations, warranties, and covenants by such Applicant under, and rights and remedies of the Issuing Bank and the other Banks under, this Agreement and applicable law. Each Applicant acknowledges and agrees that all rights of the Issuing Bank under any LOC Request or any such other documents or agreements shall inure to the benefit of each Bank to the extent of its LOC Participating Interest in and LOC Disbursements in connection with the applicable LOC as fully as if such Bank were a party to such LOC Request or any such other documents or agreements. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any LOC Request or any such other documents or agreements, this Agreement shall prevail.

(b) Certain Provisions. The Issuing Bank shall have no duties or responsibilities to the Administrative Agent or any Bank except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no fiduciary or other implied duties or responsibilities on the part of the Issuing Bank shall be read into this Agreement or shall otherwise exist. The duties and responsibilities of the Issuing Bank to the Banks and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and the Issuing Bank shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Administrative Agent, any Bank or any other Person. The Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document or LOC, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to ascertain, inquire or give any notice to the Administrative Agent or any Bank relating to (i) the performance or observance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of any Applicant, (ii) the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, any other Applicant, or any other Person, (iii) anything that has had or could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) the existence of any Event of Default. The Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide the Administrative Agent or any Bank with any notices, reports or information of any nature, whether in its possession now or hereafter, except for such notices, reports and other information expressly required by this Agreement to be so furnished. The Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the execution, delivery, effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or adequacy of this Agreement or any Loan Document.

(c) Administration. The Issuing Bank may rely upon any notice or other communication of any nature (written, electronic or oral, including telephone conversations and transmissions through the Issuing Bank's remote access system, whether or not such notice or other communication is made in a manner permitted or required by this Agreement or any other Loan

Document) purportedly made by or on behalf of the proper party or parties, and the Issuing Bank shall not have any duty to verify the identity or authority of any Person giving such notice or other communication. The Issuing Bank may consult with legal counsel (including its in-house counsel or in-house or other counsel for any Applicant), independent public accountants and any other experts selected by it, and the Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Whenever the Issuing Bank shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established with respect to any Applicant, the Administrative Agent, or any Bank, such matter may be established by a certificate of such Applicant, the Administrative Agent, or such Bank, as the case may be, and the Issuing Bank may conclusively rely upon such certificate. The Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have any knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default unless the Issuing Bank has received notice from a Bank, the Administrative Agent, or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a "notice of default".

(d) No Liability of the Issuing Bank. Each Applicant assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any Beneficiary of any LOC with respect to its use of such LOC. Neither the Issuing Bank nor any other Bank nor any of their officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, or agents shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any LOC or any acts or omissions of any Beneficiary in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency, or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; or (c) payment by the Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that strictly or substantially comply with the terms of an LOC, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the LOC. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

(e) Successor Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank, and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, each Applicant shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank, including pursuant to Section 2.05. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to LOCs to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to LOCs issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional LOCs. The replaced Issuing Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company and the successor Issuing Bank at no charge to the Company in replacing the LOCs issued by the replaced Issuing Bank with those issued by the successor Issuing Bank. No fees or expenses shall be payable by the Company, any Credit Party or any Subsidiary Applicant in respect of the replacement of the Issuing Bank.

(f) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Company may by written notice to the Administrative Agent designate up to three Banks (in addition to DB) as an Issuing Bank hereunder, each of which agrees (in its sole discretion) to act in such capacity and is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as an Issuing Bank. Each such additional Issuing Bank shall execute and deliver an Issuing Bank Joinder Agreement and upon the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.

(g) Indemnification of Issuing Bank by Banks. Each Bank severally agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Issuing Bank and each of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, advisors, and agents (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Applicants or paid by the Credit Parties pursuant to Section 8.04 and without limitation of the obligations of those parties' to do so), in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuing Bank or such other Person, including in connection with any investigative, administrative, or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Issuing Bank or such other Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Issuing Bank, in its capacity as such, or such other Person, as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any LOC, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank hereunder, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, or any transaction financed in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any LOC; provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank or such other Person, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

2.15 Issuing Bank in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its commitments and the obligations owing to it, the Issuing Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and each other Loan Document as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Issuing Bank, and the term "Banks" and like terms shall include the Issuing Bank in its individual capacity as such. The Issuing Bank and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire debt or equity interests in, act as trustee under indentures of, act as agent under other credit facilities for, and engage in any other business with, the Company, any other Applicant, any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, and any owner of Equity Interests in any Applicant, as though the Issuing Bank were not the Issuing Bank hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the other Banks.

2.16 Currency Indemnity.

(a) Each Credit Party's obligation to make payments hereunder in any Specified Currency shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment or otherwise, which is expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Specified Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the actual receipt by the Administrative Agent of the full amount of the Specified Currency payable under this Agreement. Each Credit Party shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the other Banks for any shortfall and such Credit Party's obligation to make payments in the Specified Currency shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action to the extent that such actual receipt is less than the full amount of the Specified Currency expressed to be payable hereunder, and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for other sums due hereunder.

(b) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Credit Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Specified Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the "Judgment Currency") an amount due in the Specified Currency, the conversion shall be made at the Dollar Equivalent of such amount, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the "Judgment Currency Conversion Date"). If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable Credit Party obligated in respect thereof covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser

amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Specified Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

2.17 Subsidiary Applicants. The Company from time to time may designate any Subsidiary as a Subsidiary Applicant by (i) delivering to the Administrative Agent an Adherence Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Company, the Issuing Bank, the other Banks, and the Administrative Agent and (ii) taking such further actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including executing and delivering other instruments, documents, and agreements corresponding to those obtained in respect of the Company, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided, that no Subsidiary shall become a party hereto or a Subsidiary Applicant hereunder unless the Administrative Agent shall not have been notified by any Bank, within five (5) Business Days after any such request to add a Subsidiary Applicant hereunder, that such Bank believes that it would violate any applicable law or regulation for any LOCs to be issued at such proposed Subsidiary Applicant’s request or that the Administrative Agent or any Bank would be subject to any unindemnified withholding taxes. Upon such delivery and the taking of such further actions such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Subsidiary Applicant and a party to this Agreement until the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a "Notice of Termination" (as defined in the applicable Adherence Agreement) in respect of such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Applicant. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no such Notice of Termination will become effective as to any Subsidiary Applicant at a time when any Obligations of such Subsidiary Applicant shall be outstanding hereunder or any LOC issued at the request of such Subsidiary Applicant shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion); provided that such Notice of Termination shall be effective to terminate such Subsidiary Applicant's right to request LOCs hereunder. The Subsidiary Applicants as of the Closing Date are set forth on Schedule III.

2.18 Parent Guaranty. Payment of certain of the Repayment Obligations by the Company is guaranteed by the Parent Guarantor pursuant to the Parent Guaranty. Subject to (a) the Parent Guarantor’s obligations under the Parent Guaranty and (b) Section 2.20, the obligations of each Credit Party under this Agreement are several and not joint and no Credit Party shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Credit Party under this Agreement.

2.19 Cash Collateralization. If, at any time, the Dollar Equivalent of the Credit Exposure exceeds the aggregate Commitment Amounts (including by reason of fluctuations in exchange rates), then one or more of the Applicants shall, within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize any outstanding LOCs in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion and/or pay or reimburse any other amounts then due and payable under the Facility, in each case in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; provided, however, that no Applicant shall be required to cash collateralize any amounts attributable to an LOC issued at the request of any other Applicant.

2.20 Company Guaranty.

(a) The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the other Banks, the due and punctual payment of all Repayment Obligations of each of the other Credit Parties (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Company agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligations. Each and every

default in payment or performance on any Guaranteed Obligation shall give rise to a separate cause of action hereunder, and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from, and protest to the applicable Applicant or to any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any other Bank to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any Applicant or any other Person under the provisions of the Loan Documents or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release of any Person from any of the terms or provisions of any Loan Document or any other agreement; (iii) the failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any other Bank for any reason whatsoever to exercise any right or remedy against the Parent Guarantor under the Parent Guaranty; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any Repayment Obligations; or (v) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company under this Section 2.20 or otherwise operate as a discharge or exoneration of the Company as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation.

(c) The Company agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, that such guarantee may be enforced at any time and from time to time, on one or more occasions, during the continuance of any Event of Default, without any prior demand or enforcement in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, and that the Company waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any other Bank to any other guarantee. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, amendment, modification, alteration or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any collateral security or guarantee or other accommodation in respect thereof, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Loan Document or any provision thereof (or of this Agreement or any provision hereof) or otherwise. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall extend to all Repayment Obligations of the other Applicants without limitation of amount.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Applicant or any other guarantor or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Applicant, other than the final payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the other Banks may, at their election, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Applicant or any other Person or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Applicant or any other Person, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of the Company hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Company against any Applicant or any other Person, as the case may be. The Company agrees that, as between the Company, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the other Banks, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated for the purposes of the Company's guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration as to any Applicant in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any notices and cure periods

expressly granted to an Applicant in this Agreement or any other Loan Document evidencing or securing the Obligations of such Applicant) and (ii) in the event of any such acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable in full by the Company for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any other Bank has at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Applicant to pay (after the giving of any required notice and the expiration of any cure period expressly granted to such Applicant in this Agreement) any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, upon mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the other Banks, in cash the amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation. Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against the applicable Applicant or any other Person arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to the Company on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity, or similar right, or (ii) any such indebtedness of any Applicant, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the other Banks and shall be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited against the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

(f) The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any other Bank upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Applicant or otherwise. Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Company hereunder except the full and final performance and payment in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Each request for issuance, extension, or increase of an LOC and each automatic extension permitted pursuant to Section 2.02(c) shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the applicable Applicant that both on the date of such request and on the date of such issuance, extension, or increase or automatic extension the foregoing statements are true and correct.

the Required Banks, whether before or after taking any of the actions described in Section 6.01, demand that the Company and each other Applicant, and forthwith upon such demand the Company and each other Applicant will, without duplication of any other cash collateral provide to the Administrative Agent, remit as cash collateral to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks in immediately available funds an aggregate amount not less than the sum of (i) one hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate Available Amount at such time of all LOCs denominated in dollars plus (ii) one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate Available Amount at such time of all LOCs denominated in Alternate Currencies. If at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent determines that such funds are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Banks or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Available Amount at such time of all LOCs, the Company and each other Applicant will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, remit to the Administrative Agent, as additional cash collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Available Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, no Applicant other that the Company shall be required to cash collateralize any amounts attributable to an LOC issued at the request of any other Applicant. Upon the drawing of any LOC, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

ARTICLE VII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

7.01 Authorization and Action. Each Bank (in its capacity as a Bank) hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.02 Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Bank, any Credit Party, or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Credit Party), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statement, warranty, or representation (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or the existence of any Event of Default or the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or any other Person or to inspect the property (including

the books and records) of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary; (d) shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency, or value of any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; and (f) shall have no fiduciary or other implied duties or responsibilities.

7.03 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, its LOC Participating Interests (as contemplated under Section 2.02), its LOC Disbursements, and the obligations owing to it, the financial institution serving as Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any of its other Affiliates, and any Person that may do business with or own securities of the Company or any such Subsidiary, all as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks.

7.04 Bank Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such financial statements and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

7.05 Indemnification. Each Bank severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and Affiliates (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by each Applicant or paid by the Credit Parties pursuant to Section 8.04 and without limitation of each of those parties' obligation to do so) from and against such Bank's Pro Rata Share of all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel) whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent or any such other Person in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, any transaction from time to time contemplated by any Loan Document or LOC, or any transaction financed in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any LOC; provided that no Bank shall be liable to any such indemnified Person for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank severally agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Applicants under Section 8.04, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Applicants. The failure of any Bank to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any amount required to be paid by the Banks to the Administrative Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its Pro Rata Share of such amount, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to reimburse the Administrative Agent for such other Bank's Pro Rata Share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Bank hereunder, the

agreement and obligations of each Bank contained in this Section shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

7.06 Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, or advisors. The exculpatory provisions set forth in this Article VII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and advisors of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facility provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

7.07 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, and in the event it becomes a Defaulting Bank (as determined by the Company or the Required Banks) shall upon the Company’s request, resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint, with the prior written approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) so long as there then exists no Event of Default, a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation under this Section no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Banks shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

The Company has the corporate power and authority (i) to conduct its business substantially as described in [an officer’s certificate of the Company], and (ii) to enter into and to incur and perform its obligations under the Facility Agreement.

The execution and delivery to the Banks by the Company of the Facility Agreement and the performance by the Company of its respective obligations thereunder:

have been authorized by all necessary corporate action by the Company;

do not require under present law or present regulation of any governmental agency or authority of the State of New York or the United States of America any filing or registration by any Credit Party with, or approval or consent to such Credit Party of, any governmental agency or authority of the State of New York or the United States of America that has not been made or obtained except (i) those required in the ordinary course of business in connection with the performance by the Company of its obligations under certain covenants contained in the Facility Agreement, (ii) filings under securities laws, and (iii) filings, registrations, consents or approvals in each case not required to be made or obtained by the date hereof;

EXHIBIT C-2

MATTERS TO BE COVERED IN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE PARENT GUARANTOR

The following matters will be addressed in the opinion of counsel to the Parent Guarantor under the laws of the Republic of France, subject to (a) customary and appropriate assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exclusions, (b) reliance on certificates of officers of the Parent Guarantor and public officials and agencies, and (c) such other matters as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in the preparation and delivery of the opinion

The Parent Guarantor is duly incorporated, validly existing as a société anonyme and in good standing under the law of France and has the corporate power to enter into the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty and to exercise its rights and perform its obligations thereunder, and has duly executed and delivered each of the Agreement and the Parent Guaranty.

The Parent Guarantor is not entitled to claim for itself or its assets or revenues immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any action, suit, proceeding, judgment or enforcement of any of the foregoing.

The Parent Guarantor is validly bound pursuant to its signing of the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty, and the terms of the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Parent Guarantor in accordance with their respective terms.

No authorizations, approvals, licenses, exemptions, notatizations or consents are required under the laws of the Republic of France for the execution and delivery by the Parent Guarantor of the Facility Agreement or the Parent Guaranty, or performance by the Parent Guarantor of its obligations under the Facility Agreement or the Parent Guaranty.

No further acts, conditions or things are required by French law to be done, fulfilled or performed in France in order to enable the Parent Guarantor lawfully to enter into, exercise its rights or perform its obligations under the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty.

The execution, delivery and performance of the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty will not contravene any existing applicable French law, statute or published rule or regulation or any judgment, decree or permit to which the Parent Guarantor is subject nor will it contravene the Parent Guarantor’s constitutive documents.

Each of [ ] in his capacity as Chief Financial Officer of the Parent Guarantor and [ ] in his capacity of Treasurer of the Parent Guarantor are duly authorized to execute the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty on its behalf.

No stay of legal action or proceedings prior to an amicable settlement (règlement amiable) has been granted to the Parent Guarantor and no notice of judicial reorganisation (redressement judiciaire), judicial liquidation (liquidation judiciaire) or voluntary liquidation has been filed with the Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés, or any other governmental authority or agency thereof.

On the basis of French domestic tax law, interest payable by the Parent Guarantor under the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty is payable without deductions or withholdings on account of any present or future tax, levy, impost, duty, deduction or withholding of any nature

and whatever called, by whomsoever, on whomsoever and wherever imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed.

10.

It is not necessary in order to ensure the validity, effectiveness, performance and enforceability of the Facility Agreement or the Parent Guaranty that either of them be filed or registered in any public office or that any other instrument relating thereto be executed, delivered, filed or registered except that the admissibility in evidence of the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty in the French Courts is subject to the production of a translation thereof into French by an officially sworn translator.

11.

No registration taxes, documentary taxes, income taxes, withholdings or other similar tax, imposition or duty of any kind is payable under the laws of France in connection with the admissibility in evidence in the Republic of France of the Documents or the activities or obligations to be performed by the Parent Guarantor thereunder.

12.

The submission by the Parent Guarantor in the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty to the jurisdiction of the courts the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof (assuming it to be effective in such courts) is binding on the Parent Guarantor. The choice of New York law to govern the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty is valid and would be given effect in any proceedings brought against the Parent Guarantor in the French courts, provided that the relevant content of New York law is duly proven and not held to be contrary to French Ordre Public International. The provisions of the Facility Agreement and the Parent Guaranty are not in my opinion contrary to French Ordre Public International.

13.

A final judgment for a sum of money in relation to the Facility Agreement and/or the Parent Guaranty obtained against the Parent Guarantor in New York courts would be recognized and enforceable against the Parent Guarantor by the French courts subject to and in accordance with the Regulation EC N°. 44/2001 of 22 December 2000 on Jurisdiction and the Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial matters, as amended on 16 January 2001.

PARENT GUARANTY

Execution Version

Guaranty

This GUARANTY (the “Guaranty”), dated as of August 9, 2011, is between Total S.A., a société anonyme organized under the laws of the Republic of France (the “Guarantor”), and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, a New York licensed branch of a German banking corporation, having an office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000, as Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and all of the Banks (in such capacity, the “Agent”).

RECITALS

A. SunPower Corporation (the “Obligor”) and one or more Subsidiary Applicants wish to enter into a Letter of Credit Facility Agreement

dated as of the date hereof among the Obligor, the Guarantor, the Banks parties thereto from time to time, and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent (as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Contract”), the form of which Contract has been provided to the Obligor and to the Guarantor. Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Contract.

B. It is a condition precedent to the extensionsof credit under the Contract that the Guarantor guarantee the payment of the Obligor’s payment obligations under the Contract with respect to the reimbursement of draws on letters of credit and interest thereon.

C. Guarantor owns a majority of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Obligor and will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Banks’ performance of the Contract.

AGREEMENT

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Guaranty. (a) Guarantor unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to the Agent, in accordance with the payment instructions contained in the Contract, on demand after the default by the Obligor in the performance of its payment obligations under the Contract, in lawful money of the United States (or, if applicable, in an Alternate Currency or at the Agent’s option the Dollar Equivalent thereof), any and all Obligations (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Guaranty, the term “Obligations” means and includes the obligations of the Obligor (for itself or as guarantor) now existing or hereafter arising to reimburse the amount of any draw on any letter of credit issued pursuant to the Contract (including any letters of credit issued on request of the Obligor or for any Subsidiary Applicant) and all interest accrued on such reimbursement obligation from the date of such reimbursement until the date paid, including without limitation interest accruing at the rate provided in the applicable Loan Document on or

A-1

after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, whether or not allowed or allowable. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Obligations” does not include fees, expenses or other amounts payable by the Obligor or anyone else to the Agent.

(b) This Guaranty is absolute, unconditional, continuing and irrevocable, constitutes an independent guaranty of payment and is in no way conditioned on or contingent upon any attempt to enforce in whole or in part any of the Obligor’s Obligations, the existence or continuance of the Obligor as a legal entity, the consolidation or merger of the Obligor with or into any other entity, the sale, lease or disposition by the Obligor of all or substantially all of its assets to any other entity, or the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Obligor, the admission by the Obligor of its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or the making by the Obligor of a general assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition or arrangement with, creditors. If the Obligor fails to pay or perform any Obligations that are subject to this Guaranty as and when they are due, the Guarantor shall forthwith pay to the Agent all such liabilities or obligations in immediately available funds. Each failure by the Obligor to pay any Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action, and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises.

(c) The Agent may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Guarantor, except such notice as may be required by applicable statute that cannot be waived, without incurring responsibility or liability to the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, (i) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Obligor or others (including the Guarantor) or otherwise act or refrain from acting, (ii) settle or compromise any Obligations hereby guaranteed and/or any other obligations and liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any obligations and liabilities which may be due to the Agent or others, and (iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner or in any order any property pledged or mortgaged by anyone to secure or in any manner securing the Obligations hereby guaranteed.

(d) The Agent and each Bank may not, without the prior written consent of the Guarantor, (i) change the manner, place and terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, or alter any Obligation hereby guaranteed, or in any manner modify, amend or supplement the terms of the Contract or any documents, instruments or agreements executed in connection therewith (other than the addition of a Subsidiary Applicant or Subsidiary Account Party or the termination of a Subsidiary Applicant or Subsidiary Account Party pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Contract), (ii) take and hold security (or additional security) of or from a Credit Party for any or all of the obligations or liabilities covered by this Guaranty, except as provided in the Contract, or (iii) except as provided in the Contract, assign its rights and interests under this Guaranty, in whole or in part.

A-2

(e) No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any of the Obligations hereby guaranteed shall affect, impair, or be a defense to this Guaranty,

including without limitation any law, rule, or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of any of the Obligations. This is a continuing Guaranty for which the Guarantor receives continuing consideration and all obligations to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon and this Guaranty is therefore irrevocable without the prior written consent of the Agent.

(f) All payments by the Guarantor hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes. If the Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Agent or to the Agent on behalf of any Bank, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after the Guarantor and the Agent have made all required deductions the Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Guarantor shall make all such deductions, and (iii) the Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(g) The Guarantor further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any other Bank upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Obligor or otherwise. Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Guarantor hereunder except the full and final performance and payment in cash of the Obligations.

2. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Agent that (a) the Guarantor is a société anonyme duly organized, validly, existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation, (b) the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty are within the power of the Guarantor and have been duly authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Guarantor, (c) this Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (d) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty do not (i) violate any law, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, or (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance upon any property, asset or revenue of the Guarantor, (e) no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any governmental authority or other person (including, without limitation, the shareholders of the Guarantor) is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty, except such consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings that are so required and which have been obtained and are in full force and effect, (f) the Guarantor is not in violation of any law, rule or regulation other than those the consequences of which cannot reasonably be

A-3

expected to have material adverse effect on the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty, and (g) no litigation, investigation or proceeding of any court or other governmental tribunal is pending or, to the knowledge of the Guarantor, threatened against the Guarantor which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty.
