THE CREDITS
2.01 AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS. Each Bank severally agrees,
on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the
Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the
Closing Date to the Termination Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to
Section 2.09 hereof); and the Administrative Agent agrees, on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Swing-Line Advances to the Borrower
from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to
the Termination Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to Section 2.09
hereof); and the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank agree, on the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue Letters of Credit for the account
of the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the
Closing Date to the Termination Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to
Section 2.09 hereof). The aggregate amount of each Bank's obligation to make
Advances, together with such Bank's share of funding for any Letter of Credit
upon negotiation by the beneficiary thereof, shall not exceed at any time the
amount set forth opposite such Bank's name in SCHEDULE 1 under the heading
"Commitment", and the aggregate amount of the Administrative Agent's obligation
to make Advances and Swing-Line Advances, together with the Administrative
Agent's share of funding for any Letter of Credit upon negotiation by the
beneficiary thereof, shall not exceed at any time the amount set forth opposite
the Administrative Agent's name in SCHEDULE 1 under the heading "Commitment"
(such amount, as the same may be reduced pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, being such Bank's "Revolving Commitment"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that,
after giving effect to any Borrowing, any Swing-Line Borrowing or any Issuance,
the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Advances, all outstanding
Swing-Line Advances, and all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed the
amount of the Aggregate Commitment. Within the limits of the Aggregate
Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower
may borrow, prepay, and reborrow.
2.02 DETERMINATION OF BORROWING BASE; RESTRICTION ON ADVANCES,
SWING-LINE ADVANCES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT. The Administrative Agent will
determine the initial Borrowing Base at the Closing Date, calculated as of
December 31, 2000, and evidenced by a Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by
the Borrower, to the Administrative Agent no later than January 31, 2001. Such
determination shall be effective for the first month following the Closing Date.
Thereafter, the Borrowing Base for each succeeding month will be determined by
the Administrative Agent, calculated as of the end of the preceding month,
evidenced by the Borrowing Base Certificate provided to the Administrative Agent
by the Borrower, pursuant to Section 6.02(c) of this Agreement, and verified by
the Administrative Agent to its satisfaction. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and each Bank of each
24
determination by the Administrative Agent of the Borrowing Base. Any
determination of the Borrowing Base by the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusively deemed to be correct unless objected to by the Borrower or the
Majority Banks within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of such
determination. The aggregate amount of all Advances and Swing-Line Advances
outstanding hereunder, and all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding
hereunder, shall not exceed the Borrowing Base, as determined by the
Administrative Agent for any succeeding month, less (i) the outstanding
principal amount of Senior Debt, and (ii) 50% of the outstanding principal
amount of new Subordinated Debt (i.e., Subordinated Debt incurred after the
effective date of this Agreement), and shall in no event exceed the amount of
the Aggregate Commitment. In the event the Borrowing Base, for any month, as
determined by the Administrative Agent hereunder, less (i) the principal
amount of Senior Debt, and (ii) 50% of the principal amount of new
Subordinated Debt, is less than the aggregate amount of all outstanding
Advances and Swing-Line Advances and all issued and outstanding Letters of
Credit at the date of such determination, the Borrower shall, within fifteen
(15) Business Days of the receipt of notification by the Administrative
Agent, repay Advances or Swing-Line Advances and/or repay or cash
collateralize issued and outstanding Letters of Credit, in such amounts as
may be necessary to reduce the aggregate amount of all outstanding Advances
and Swing-Line Advances and all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit, to
the amount of the newly-determined Borrowing Base, less (i) the principal
amount of Senior Debt, and (ii) 50% of the principal amount of new
Subordinated Debt.

shall automatically be converted into Prime Rate Advances. The Borrower shall
reimburse each Bank and hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which

Borrower shall only be eligible for a LIBO Rate "B" Advance or a Prime Rate "B"
Advance, respectively. This prohibition shall be terminated upon the earlier of:
(i) the termination of the Borrower's right to make Western Pacific Advances
under Section 7.07(e), or (ii) December 31, 2001.
26

any Swing-Line Advance; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent
shall convert, no less than weekly, all Swing-Line Advances into an Advance,
upon one (1) Business Day's written notice given by the Administrative Agent to
each Bank (with a copy of such notice being given to the Borrower), if the
outstanding balance of all Swing-Line Advances is $1,000,000 or more, (ii) all
Swing-Line Advances which are not converted as provided in subsection 2.04(b)(i)

and (iii) all Swing-Line Advances shall automatically be converted into Advances
upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default.
(c) [RESERVED]
(d) If the Administrative Agent shall convert a
Swing-Line Advance into an Advance, the Administrative Agent will notify each
Bank of such conversion, of the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage
therein, and the date (which shall be not less than one (1) Business Day after
the date of such notification) for such conversion (with a copy of such
notification being given to the Borrower). Each Bank will thereupon make the
amount of its Commitment Percentage therein available to the Administrative
Agent at the Administrative Agent's Payment Office by 11:00 a.m. Honolulu,
Hawaii time, on the date specified in such notice, in funds immediately
available to the Administrative Agent. The proceeds received from the Banks will
be used by the Administrative Agent to reimburse itself for the former
Swing-Line Advance so converted.
(e) The proceeds from Swing-Line Advances shall be used
for (i) general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
including working capital, development and land acquisition, and (ii) Western
Pacific Advances pursuant to Section 7.07(e) hereof, and may also be used to

(g) All Swing-Line Advances shall be Prime Rate Advances.
All Swing-Line Advances that have been converted into Advances as described in
subsection 2.04(d) above, shall be Prime Rate Advances, unless and until the
Borrower has converted the same into LIBO Rate Advances, in accordance with
Section 2.06(a)(i) hereof.
(h) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the
Borrower shall not be permitted to request or obtain Prime Rate "A" Advances

Pacific Advances pursuant to Section 7.07(e), and if during such period, the
Borrower's Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio are such that they would
have qualified for a Prime Rate "A" Advance, the Borrower shall only be eligible
for a Prime Rate "B" Advance. This prohibition shall be terminated upon the
earlier of: (i) the termination of the Borrower's right to make Western Pacific
Advances under Section 7.07(e), or (ii) December 31, 2001.
2.05 PROCEDURE FOR ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT.
(a) Each Issuance shall be made upon the Borrower's

Issuing Bank will immediately notify the Administrative Agent upon the Issuance
of a Letter of Credit.
(c) Upon any negotiation of an outstanding Letter of
Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Bank shall notify the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank
of such negotiation, and of the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage
thereof. Each Bank will make the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the
negotiated Letter of Credit available to the Administrative Agent at the
Administrative Agent's Payment Office by 11:00 a.m. Honolulu, Hawaii time on the

Administrative Agent. The proceeds received from the Banks will be used by the
Administrative Agent to pay the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit upon such
negotiation, or to reimburse the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as
applicable, for such amounts if payment to such beneficiary has already been
made.
28
(d) Unless all of the Banks shall otherwise agree, (i) no
Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date later than the Termination Date; (ii)
no Letter of Credit shall contain an automatic renewal clause or feature; and
(iii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued for credit enhancement, provided,
however, that Letters of Credit may be issued to the Borrower to comply with

The aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at
any one time may not exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), and the
amount available to the Borrower for Advances and Swing-Line Advances shall be
reduced by the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding
at any one time. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fee payable by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.11(d) of this Agreement, the Borrower shall, at the time
of the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, pay to the Administrative Agent or the
Issuing Bank, as applicable, its standard letter of credit issuance fee. Upon
the negotiation of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the amount
drawn thereunder shall become and be deemed an Advance under and subject to the
terms and provisions of this Agreement relating to Advances. Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default hereunder, the Borrower shall deposit with the
Administrative Agent cash in an amount sufficient to fully collateralize all
outstanding Letters of Credit as of such date, and if the Borrower shall fail to
do so, the full amount of such outstanding Letters of Credit shall become and be
deemed an Advance under and subject to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement relating to Advances. The Letters of Credit shall be issued to support
performance requirements and obligations of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries in
connection with their real estate development businesses (including any required
deposits for like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code), and to support
capital and performance requirements and obligations of the Captive Insurance
Subsidiary, and not in contravention of any provision of this Agreement or any

29
PROVIDED, that if the aggregate amount of any LIBO Rate Advance in respect of
any Borrowing shall have been reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of
part thereof to be less than $2,000,000, such LIBO Rate Advance shall
automatically convert into a Prime Rate Advance, and on and after such date the
right of the Borrower to continue such Advance as, and convert such Advance
into, a LIBO Rate Advance, shall terminate.
(b) The Borrower shall deliver a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation in accordance with Section 10.02 to be received by the

elected to convert such LIBO Rate Advances into Prime Rate Advances effective as
of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.
(d) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation,
the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, or, if no
timely notice is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will
promptly notify each Bank of the details of any automatic conversion. All
conversions and continuations shall be made pro rata among the Banks according
to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Advances held by each
Bank with respect to which the notice was given.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this
Agreement, after giving effect to any conversion or continuation of any
Advances, there shall not be more than five (5) LIBO Rate Advances in effect.

consequence of any conversion of a LIBO Rate Advance to a Prime Rate Advance on
a day that is not the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBO Rate
Advance, as provided in Section 3.04 below.

permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the
Advances or Swing-Line Advances made on the effective date thereof, the then
outstanding principal amount of all Advances, Swing-Line Advances and Letters
of Credit issued and outstanding would exceed the amount of the Aggregate
Commitment then in effect and, PROVIDED, FURTHER, that once reduced in
accordance with this Section, the Aggregate Commitment may not be increased
without the written approval of the Administrative Agent and each Bank. Any
reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be applied to each Bank's
Revolving Commitment in accordance with such Bank's Commitment Percentage.
All accrued interest, and all accrued fees described in Section 2.11 hereof,
to, but not including, the effective date of any reduction or termination of
the Aggregate Commitment, shall be paid on the effective date of such
reduction or termination. The Borrower shall reimburse each Bank and hold
each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which such Bank may sustain or

for prepayment of LIBO Rate Advances shall not thereafter be revocable by the
Borrower, and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof
and of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice for
prepayment of LIBO Rate Advances is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall
make such prepayment, and the payment amounts specified in such notice shall be

any portion of any property or assets
31
of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries for $10,000,000.00 or more, or if
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries sells, in a single transaction, all
or substantially all of the property or assets of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall use 100% of the proceeds of such sale, net
of commissions and closing costs (the "Sale Proceeds") to prepay any
Advances, subject to Section 3.04. If the Sale Proceeds are used to prepay
LIBO Rate Advances in whole or in part, then the Borrower shall provide at
least three Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent, of such
prepayment and such prepayments shall be in amounts of $1,000,000 or any
integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (PROVIDED that after any such
prepayment, the balance of any such LIBO Rate Advance shall be $2,000,000 or
any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; unless the total
Advances outstanding after giving effect to any other prepayments required by
this section, is less than $2,000,000, in which case, the LIBO Rate Advances
outstanding shall be reduced by the balance of the such prepayment). Such
notice for prepayment of LIBO Rate Advances shall not thereafter be revocable
by the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank
thereof and of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. If such
notice for prepayment of LIBO Rate Advances is given by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall make such prepayment, and the payment amounts specified in
such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together
with accrued interest to each such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts

or incur as a consequence of any prepayment of a LIBO Rate Advance, on a day
that is not the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBO Rate Advance,
as provided in Section 3.04 below. If the Sale Proceeds are used to prepay
Prime Rate Advances (other than Swing-Line Advances) in whole or in part,
then the Borrower shall provide at least one Business Day's prior notice to
the Administrative Agent, and such prepayments may be made in any amounts.
Prepayments of Swing-Line Advances in whole or in part may be made without
prior notice to the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Borrower shall, on the Termination Date, repay to
the Banks in full the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Advances,
and all accrued interest thereon, and shall repay to the Administrative Agent in
full the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swing-Line Advances, and
all accrued interest thereon, shall pay to the Banks all fees, charges and other
sums outstanding hereunder on the Termination Date.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the request of
the Borrower made not earlier than April 1, 2000, and not earlier than April 1st
of each subsequent year, and not later than June 30, 2000, and not later than
June 30th of each subsequent year, and the concurrence of all of the Banks, in
their sole and absolute discretion, the Termination Date may be extended for an
additional period of one year; provided, however, and except for any request to
extend the Termination Date made in 1999, that the Borrower shall have, in the
immediately preceding year, exercised its option, and all of the Banks shall
have concurred, to extend the Termination Date; provided, further, if any Bank
does not concur in the extension of the Termination Date (the "Dissenting
Bank"), the Borrower may:
(i) request that the Dissenting Bank continue its
Commitment Percentage until the original Termination Date; or
32
(ii) request one or more of the other Banks (the
"Non-Dissenting Banks") to acquire and assume all or part of such Dissenting
Bank's Advances and Revolving Commitment, which request may be granted or denied
in such Non-Dissenting Bank's sole discretion; or
(iii) designate a replacement bank or financial
institution to acquire and assume all or part of such Dissenting Bank's Advances
and Revolving Commitment (a "REPLACEMENT BANK"); or
(iv) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.07,
permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitment by the aggregate amount of such
Dissenting Bank's Advances and Revolving Commitment, by prepaying the amount of
such Dissenting Bank's Advances and all accrued interest and fees and
reimbursing such Dissenting Bank and holding such Dissenting Bank harmless from
any loss or expense which such Dissenting Bank may sustain or incur as a
consequence of such reduction of the Aggregate Commitment which is effective,
with respect to a LIBO Rate Advance, on a day that is not the last day of the
Interest Period for such LIBO Rate Advance, as provided in Section 3.04 below.
Any acquisition of a Dissenting Bank's Advances and Revolving Commitment,
designation of a Replacement Bank or reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall
be subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall be effective upon such
consent. In the event of the replacement of a Dissenting Bank, such Dissenting
Bank agrees to assign without recourse its rights and obligations hereunder to
the Replacement Bank upon payment by the Replacement Bank to the Dissenting Bank
of the principal amount of such Dissenting Banks's outstanding Advances and any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any other amounts owed to such
Dissenting Bank and to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
assignment and acceptance in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and such Dissenting Bank evidencing such assignment and the
acceptance by the Replacement Bank of such Dissenting Bank's obligations
hereunder. The designation of a Replacement Bank shall not affect the Borrower's
obligations to such Dissenting Bank hereunder.
(c) As a condition to such extension as provided
hereinabove, the Banks may require the Borrower to pay an extension fee, in an
amount to be determined by the Banks and agreed to by the Borrower.
2.10 INTEREST.
(a) Subject to subsection (c) of this Section and to
Sections 2.03(g) and 2.04(h) hereof, each LIBO Rate "A" Advance, each LIBO Rate
"B" Advance, each LIBO Rate "C" Advance, each Prime Rate "A" Advance, each Prime
Rate "B" Advance and each Prime Rate "C" Advance shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof, from the date when made until it becomes
due, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate or the Prime Rate, as the case
may be, PLUS, the Applicable Margin.
33
(b) Interest on each Advance and on each Swing-Line
Advance shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall
also be paid on any portion of Advances or Swing-Line Advances prepaid pursuant
to Sections 2.07 and 2.08; provided, however, that interest on Prime Rate
Advances shall be paid in arrears on the Interest Payment Date immediately
following the date of such prepayment. Interest shall be paid on demand during
the existence of any Event of Default.
(c) During the existence of any Event of Default, the
Borrower agrees to pay interest on any unpaid principal or other amount payable
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, from the date such amount
becomes due until the date such amount is paid in full, and after as well as
before any entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law, payable on
demand, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate PLUS four
percent (4%).
(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that
payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is
computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for
or receiving such payment by the respective Bank would be contrary to the
provisions of any law applicable to such Bank limiting the highest rate of
interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Bank,
and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Bank interest at the highest rate
permitted by law applicable to such Bank.

(b) COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a non-refundable commitment
fee in the following percentage per annum on the amount of such Bank's Revolving
Commitment, computed on a Quarterly basis in advance, based upon the Leverage
Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio then in effect (for example, the
commitment fee due on April 1 shall be computed based upon the Leverage Ratio
then in effect, which in such case would be as of the previous December 31),
commencing on the Closing Date, and continuing on the first Business Day of each
Quarter until the Termination Date:
34
(i) if on the first day of such Quarter:
(A) the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.35 to
1 and the Interest Coverage Ratio is greater than 2.00 to 1;
or
(B) the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.50 to
1 and the Interest Coverage Ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1;

Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 2.00 to 1, but less
than 2.50 to 1;
then the percentage for the commitment fee shall be equal to 0.25%;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (1) if the Borrower fails to provide the Leverage
Ratio/Interest Coverage Ratio/Base Grid Certificate as required in Section
6.02(e), and the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Leverage Ratio
for such Quarter, then the percentage for the commitment fee for such Quarter
shall be 0.25%, or (2) if an Event of Default has occurred, then the percentage
for the commitment fee for the Quarter immediately following such Event of
Default, and for each subsequent Quarter as long as such Event of Default is
continuing, shall be 0.25%; and
35
PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that if the Borrower has the right to make Western

Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio would otherwise qualify for the percentage
as set forth in subsection (i) above, the Borrower shall pay the commitment fee
in the percentage as set forth in subsection (ii) above. This restriction shall
terminate upon the earlier of: (i) the termination of the Borrower's right to
make Western Pacific Advances under Section 7.07(e), or (ii) December 31, 2001.
(c) UNUSED FACILITY FEES. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank an unused facility fee equal
to one-fifth of one percent (0.20%) per annum of the amount equal to the
difference between (i) such Bank's Revolving Commitment (less such Bank's
Commitment Percentage of any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit) and (ii)
such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the outstanding principal balance of all
Advances made hereunder, computed on a daily balance basis in arrears,
commencing as of the Closing Date, and becoming due and payable on the last
Business Day of each Quarter, with the final payment to be made on the
Termination Date; PROVIDED HOWEVER that in the case of the Administrative Agent,
the unused facility fee shall be equal to one-fifth of one percent (0.20%) of
the amount equal to the difference between (i) the Administrative Agent's
Revolving Commitment (less the Administrative Agent's Commitment Percentage of
any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit) and (ii)(A) the Administrative
Agent's Commitment Percentage of the outstanding principal balance of all
Advances made hereunder and (B) 100% of the outstanding principal balance of all
Swing-Line Advances made hereunder, computed on a daily balance basis in
arrears, commencing as of the Closing Date and becoming due and payable on the
last Business Day of each Quarter, with the final payment to be made on the
Termination Date.
(d) LETTER OF CREDIT FEES. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, upon the Issuance
hereunder of each new Letter of Credit, or upon the extension hereunder of each
existing Letter of Credit, a letter of credit fee in an amount equal to one and
one-fourth percent (1.25%) of the amount of such Letter of Credit. For Letters
of Credit issued by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent will
retain 20% of such letter of credit fee (i.e., .25% of the amount of such Letter
of Credit) for its own account, and will remit the balance of such fee to each
Bank (including the Administrative Agent) pro rata in accordance with such
Bank's Revolving Commitment. For Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank,
the Issuing Bank may retain 20% of such letter of credit fee (i.e., .25% of the
amount of such Letter of Credit) for its own account, and will remit the balance
to the Administrative Agent, who will then remit the same to each Bank
(including the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent) pro rata in accordance
with such Bank's Revolving Commitment.
(e) AGENCY FEE; STRUCTURING FEE. The Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent's own account an agency
fee in the amount and at the times set forth in those letter agreements between
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent dated September 30, 1998 and July 2,
1999.
36
2.12 COMPUTATION OF FEES AND INTEREST.
(a) The fees described in Section 2.11 above shall be
calculated on the basis year of 365 days, and actual days elapsed; provided,
however, all fees for Letters of Credit shall be calculated based upon a year of
360 days.
(b) All computations of interest payable in respect of
Prime Rate Advances shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days, and actual
days elapsed. All computations of interest payable in respect of LIBO Rate
Advances shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed.
Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such
fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.
(c) The Administrative Agent will, with reasonable
promptness, notify the Borrower and the Banks of each determination of the
Borrowing Base, of the Leverage Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio; PROVIDED
that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability
hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against the Administrative Agent.
Any change in the interest rate on an Advance or a Swing-Line Advance resulting
from a change in the Prime Rate shall become effective as of the opening of
business on the day on which such change in the Prime Rate becomes effective.
Any change in the interest rate on an Advance or a Swing-Line Advance resulting
from a change in the Leverage Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio (and the
resultant Applicable Margin) shall become effective as of the opening of
business on the first day of the month following the determination of the
Leverage Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio. The Administrative Agent will
with reasonable promptness notify the Borrower and the Banks of the effective
date and the amount of each such change; PROVIDED that any failure to do so
shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability hereunder or provide the basis
for any claim against the Administrative Agent.
2.13 PAYMENTS BY THE BORROWER.
(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by
the Borrower on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required
hereunder shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim; shall,
except with respect to payments relating to Swing-Line Advances, and as
otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable account of the Banks at the Administrative Agent's Payment Office; and
shall be made in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than
9:00 a.m. Honolulu, Hawaii time on the date specified herein for payments on, or
of, Advances, and no later than 1:00 p.m. Honolulu, Hawaii time on the date
specified herein for payments on, or of, Swing-Line Advances. The Administrative
Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its Commitment Percentage (or other
applicable share as expressly provided herein) of such principal, interest, fees
or other amounts, in like funds as received; provided however that the
Administrative Agent shall retain all payments made by the Borrower on, or of,
Swing-Line Advances for the Administrative Agent's own account. Any payment
which is received by the Administrative Agent later than 9:00 a.m. Honolulu,
Hawaii time and any payment on, or of, Swing-Line Advances which is received by
the Administrative Agent later than 1:00 p.m. Honolulu, Hawaii time, shall be
deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any
applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.
37
(b) 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 in such case be
included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; subject to
the provisions set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" herein.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when
required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has
made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in
immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
so required), in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and
to the extent the Borrower shall not have made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent on
demand such amount distributed to such Bank, together with interest thereon for
each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date
such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds
Rate as in effect for each such day.
2.14 PAYMENTS BY THE BANKS TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from a Bank at least one Business Day prior to the date of any proposed
Borrowing, conversion of a Swing-Line Advance to an Advance, or negotiation of a
Letter of Credit, that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative
Agent as and when required hereunder the amount of that Bank's Commitment
Percentage thereof, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Bank has made
such amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds
on such date and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the appropriate party on such
date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Bank shall not have made
its full amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available
funds and the Administrative Agent in such circumstances has made available to
the appropriate party such amount, that Bank shall on the next Business Day
following such date make such amount available to the Administrative Agent,
together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for and determined as of each
day during such period. A notice of the Administrative Agent submitted to any
Bank with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to the
Administrative Agent shall constitute such Bank's Advance on such date for all
purposes of this Agreement. If, with respect to a Borrowing, such amount is not
made available to the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day following
the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower
of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the
Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the
Administrative Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each day
elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the
interest rate applicable at the time to the Advances comprising such Borrowing.
(b) The failure of any Bank to make any Advance on the
date of any proposed Borrowing, conversion of Swing-Line Advance to an Advance,
or negotiation of a Letter of Credit, shall not relieve any other Bank of any
obligation hereunder to make an Advance on the
38
date thereof, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank
to make the Advance to be made by such other Bank on the date thereof. The
Administrative Agent shall take such action as the Administrative Agent deems
advisable, or as the Administrative Agent may be directed by the Majority Banks,
pursuant to the Inter-Bank Agreement, to cause such Bank to make such Advance,
or to cause one or more of the other Banks to acquire and assume such Bank's
Advances and Revolving Commitment, or to designate a replacement bank or
financial institution to acquire and assume such Bank's Advances and Revolving
Commitment.
2.15 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. If, other than with respect to
Swing-Line Advances made by the Administrative Agent, or other than as expressly
provided elsewhere herein, any Bank shall obtain on account of the Advances made
by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any
right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Commitment Percentage of
payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall
forthwith (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
from the other Banks such participations in the Advances made by them as shall
be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably
with each of them; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or any portion of such excess
payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Bank, such purchase shall to
that extent be rescinded and each other Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank
the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying
Bank's Commitment Percentage (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such paying 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. The Borrower agrees
that any Bank so purchasing a participation 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 but subject to Section 10.09) with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor
of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent
will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of
manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section and will in
each case notify the Banks following any such purchases or repayments.
ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
3.01 TAXES.
(a) Subject to subsection 3.01(g), any and all payments
by the Borrower to each Bank or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement
shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any
and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or
withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case
of each Bank and the Administrative Agent, such taxes (including income taxes or
franchise taxes) as are imposed on or measured by each Bank's net income by the
jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office or any political
subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
39
(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or
future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges
or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other
Taxes").
(c) Subject to subsection 3.01(g), the Borrower shall
indemnify and hold harmless each Bank and the Administrative Agent for the full
amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by
any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.01) paid by any Bank or
the Administrative Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest,
additions to tax and expenses) arising therefor or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment
under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date any Bank
or the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor. If any Taxes or Other
Taxes for which the Borrower have provided an indemnity to any Bank or the
Administrative Agent under this subsection 3.01(c) are found to be incorrectly
or illegally assessed, then, upon the request of the Borrower, such Bank or
Administrative Agent will take such action, if any, as such Bank or the
Administrative Agent may determine in its discretion, exercised in good faith,
to be commercially reasonable to obtain a refund of such Taxes or Other Taxes
and shall promptly remit to the Borrower any refund which the Bank or the
Administrative Agent receives, after deducting from such refund all costs and
expenses incurred (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and
allocated costs of internal legal services) in collecting such refund.
(d) If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder to any Bank or the Administrative Agent, then, subject to subsection
3.01(g):
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
3.01) 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) the Borrower shall make such deductions; and
(iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in
accordance with applicable law.
(e) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the
Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing
payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent.
(f) Each Bank which is a foreign person (i.e., a person
other than a United States Person for United States Federal income tax purposes)
agrees that:
40
(i) it shall, no later than the Closing Date
(or, in the case of a Bank which becomes a party hereto pursuant to
Section 10.08 after the Closing Date, the date upon which the Bank
becomes a party hereto) deliver to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent two accurate and complete signed originals of
Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or any successor thereto ("Form
4224"), or two accurate and complete signed originals of Internal
Revenue Service Form 1001 or any successor thereto ("Form 1001"), as
appropriate, in each case indicating that the Bank is on the date of
delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of principal, interest
and fees under this Agreement free from withholding of United States
Federal income tax;
(ii) if at any time the Bank makes any changes
necessitating a new Form 4224 or Form 1001, it shall with reasonable
promptness deliver to each of the Borrower through the Administrative
Agent in replacement for, or in addition to, the forms previously
delivered by it hereunder, two accurate and complete signed originals
of Form 4224; or two accurate and complete signed originals of Form
1001, as appropriate, in each case indicating that the Bank is on the
date of delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of principal,
interest and fees under this Agreement free from withholding of United
States Federal income tax;
(iii) it shall, before or promptly after the
occurrence of any event (including the passing of time but excluding
any event mentioned in (ii) above) requiring change in or renewal of
the most recent Form 4224 or Form 1001 previously delivered by such
Bank, deliver to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent two
accurate and complete original signed copies of Form 4224 or Form 1001
in replacement for the forms previously delivered by the Bank; and
(iv) it shall, promptly upon the Borrower's or
the Administrative Agent's reasonable request to that effect, deliver
to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) such
other forms or similar documentation as may be required from time to
time by any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to
establish such Bank's tax status for withholding purposes.
(g) The Borrower will not be required to pay any
additional amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to
subsection 3.01(d) to any Bank for the account of any Lending Office of such
Bank:
(i) if the obligation to pay such additional
amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank to comply
with its obligations, if any, under subsection 3.01(f) in respect of
such Lending Office;
(ii) if such Bank shall have delivered to the
Borrower a Form 4224 in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to
subsection 3.01(f), and such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to
exemption from deduction or withholding of United States Federal income
tax in respect of payments by the Borrower hereunder for the account of
such Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United States
law or regulations or in the official interpretation of such law or
regulations by any governmental authority
41
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or
not having the force of law) after the date of delivery of such Form
4224; or
(iii) if the Bank shall have delivered to the
Borrower a Form 1001 in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to
subsection 3.01(f), and such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to
exemption from deduction or withholding of United States Federal income
tax in respect of payments by the Borrower hereunder for the account of
such Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United States
law or regulations or any applicable tax treaty or regulations or in
the official interpretation of any such law, treaty or regulations by
any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) after
the date of delivery of such Form 1001.
(h) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts
to any Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 3.01(d), then
such Bank shall use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and
regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as
to eliminate any such additional payment by the Borrower which may thereafter
accrue if such change in the judgment of such Bank is not otherwise
disadvantageous to such Bank.
3.02 ILLEGALITY.
(a) If any Bank shall determine that the introduction of
any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any
central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Bank or its Lending Office to make LIBO Rate Advances, then, on notice
thereof by the Bank to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, the
obligation of that Bank to make LIBO Rate Advances shall be suspended until that
Bank shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.
(b) If a Bank shall determine that it is unlawful to
maintain any LIBO Rate Advance, the Borrower shall prepay in full all LIBO Rate
Advances of that Bank then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon,
either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof if that Bank may lawfully
continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Advances to such day, or immediately, if
that Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Advances,
together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant
to Section 3.04.
(c) If the Borrower is required to prepay any LIBO Rate
Advance immediately as provided in subsection 3.02(b), then concurrently with
such prepayment, the Borrower shall borrow from the Affected Bank, in the amount
of such repayment, a Prime Rate Advance.
(d) If the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain
LIBO Rate Advances has been terminated, the Borrower may elect, by giving notice
to that Bank through the Administrative Agent that all Advances which would
otherwise be made by that Bank as LIBO Rate Advances shall be instead Prime Rate
Advances.
42
3.03 INCREASED COSTS AND REDUCTION OF RETURN.
(a) If any Bank shall determine that, due to either (i)
the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition of
or increase in reserve requirements to the extent included the calculation of
the LIBO Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), enacted after
the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Bank of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBO Rate Advances, then
the Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand
therefor by such Bank (with copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent),
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, additional amounts
as are sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased costs.
(b) If any Bank shall have determined that (i) the
introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital
Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of
any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental
Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv)
compliance by such Bank (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling
such Bank, with any Capital Adequacy Regulation affects or would affect the
amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any
corporation controlling such Bank and (taking into consideration such Bank's or
such corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Bank's
desired return on capital) such Bank determines that the amount of such capital
is increased as a consequence of its commitment to extend credit under this
Agreement, or loans, advances, credits or obligations under this Agreement,
then, upon demand of such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the
Borrower shall upon demand pay to such Bank, from time to time as specified by
such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such
increase. Notwithstanding the above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay
to any Bank any amount under this subsection 3.03(b) which reflects compensation
for such increased capital requirement which was effective more than 180 days
prior to the date of such demand, unless such increased capital requirement is
made retroactive by such (i) Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) change therein,
(iii) change in the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance
with any Capital Adequacy Regulation.
(c) Any Bank claiming reimbursement or compensation
pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the
amount payable to such Bank under this Section 3.03 and the basis therefor and
such certificate shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of such amount.
3.04 FUNDING LOSSES. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Bank
and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which such Bank may
sustain or incur as a consequence of:
(a) the failure of the Borrower to make any payment or
mandatory prepayment of principal of any LIBO Rate Advance (including payments
made after any acceleration thereof);
43
(b) the failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or
convert an Advance after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a
Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;
(c) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment
after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with Section 2.08;
(d) the conversion pursuant to Section 2.03(e) or Section
2.06 of any LIBO Rate Advance to a Prime Rate Advance on a day that is not the
last day of the respective Interest Period;
(e) the termination or reduction in the Aggregate
Commitment which is effective, with respect to a LIBO Rate Advance, on a day
that is not the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBO Rate Advance, as
provided in Section 2.07; or
(f) the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.08)
of a LIBO Rate Advance on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period
with respect thereto;
including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment
of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBO Rate Advances hereunder or from
fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, such
amount or amounts to include, without limitation, an amount equal to the excess,
if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so
prepaid, not prepaid, not paid, not borrowed, not continued or converted, or
converted at the time of such action or failure to act for the period from the
date of such action or failure to act to the last day of the then current
Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, continue or convert,
the Interest Period which would have commenced on the date of such failure) at
the LIBO Rate in effect for such Interest Period over (ii) the amount of
interest which would accrue to such Bank on such amount by placing such amount
on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the London Interbank
Market. Such Bank shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the
amount of such loss, cost or expense and the basis therefor which shall be
rebuttable presumptive evidence of the amount of such loss, cost or expense.
Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Banks
under this Section 3.04 and under subsection 3.03(a), each LIBO Rate Advance
made by a Bank (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBO Rate
plus the Applicable Margin for such LIBO Rate Advance by a matching deposit or
other borrowing in the London Interbank Market for a comparable amount and for a
comparable period, whether or not such LIBO Rate Advance is in fact so funded.
3.05 INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES. If the Majority Banks shall have
determined that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a
proposed LIBO Rate Advance or that the LIBO Rate applicable pursuant to
subsection 2.10(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed
LIBO Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks
of funding such Advance, the Administrative Agent will forthwith give notice of
such determination to the Borrower and each Bank. Thereafter, the obligation of
the Banks to make or maintain LIBO Rate Advances hereunder shall be suspended
until the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Majority Banks
revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such
44
notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Borrower does not revoke
such notice, the Banks shall make, convert or continue the Advances, as proposed
by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by
the Borrower, but such Advances shall be made, converted or continued as Prime
Rate Advances instead of LIBO Rate Advances.
3.06 SUBSTITUTION OF BANKS. Upon the receipt by the Borrower from
any Bank (an "AFFECTED BANK") of a claim for compensation pursuant to Section
3.01 or Section 3.03, or a notice to the Borrower through the Administrative
Agent under Section 3.02(a), unless the Borrower and the Affected Bank have
reached an agreement or are negotiating toward reaching an agreement relative to
alleviating the impact of such claim for compensation or such notice on the
Borrower, the Borrower may: (i) request one or more of the other Banks to
acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Bank's Advances and Revolving
Commitment, which request may be granted or denied in such Bank's sole
discretion; or (ii) designate a replacement bank or financial institution (the
"Substitute Bank") to acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Bank's
Advances and Revolving Commitment. Any such designation of a Substitute Bank
under clause (ii) shall be subject to the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). In the
event of the replacement of an Affected Bank, such Affected Bank agrees to
assign without recourse its rights and obligations hereunder to the Substitute
Bank upon payment by the Substitute Bank to the Affected Bank of the principal
amount of such Affected Banks's outstanding Advances and any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, and any other amounts owed to such Affected Bank and to
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment and acceptance in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such
Affected Bank evidencing such assignment and the acceptance by the Substitute
Bank of such Affected Bank's obligations hereunder. The designation of a
Substitute Bank shall not affect the Borrower's obligations to such Affected
Bank hereunder.

ARTICLE IX
THE AGENTS
9.01 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION. Each Bank hereby irrevocably
appoints, designates and authorizes each of the Agents to take such action on
such Bank's behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan
Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, neither Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any Agent have or be deemed
to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against either
Agent.
9.02 DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Agents may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Agents shall not be responsible to the
Banks for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it
selects with reasonable care, except to the extent such negligence or misconduct
is determined to be gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9.03 LIABILITY OF THE AGENTS. None of the Agent-Related Persons
shall (i) be liable to any of the Banks for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (except for such Agent-Related Person's own gross negligence or
willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Banks
for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Borrower, any
Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in
this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
68
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
or for any failure of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any other party to
any Loan Document to perform its obligation hereunder or thereunder. No
Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain
or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower, or any
Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower.
9.04 RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex
or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other
experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall
be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such
advice or concurrence of the Majority Banks (or all of the Banks where this
Agreement expressly so provides) as it deems appropriate and, if it so
requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks
against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it (other
than any portion of such liability or expense resulting solely from the
Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct) by reason of
taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request
or consent of the Majority Banks (or all of the Banks where this Agreement
expressly so provides) and such request and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Banks.
(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Bank that has executed this
Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be
satisfied with each document or other matter either sent by the
Administrative Agent to such Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or
satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or
acceptable or satisfactory to such Bank.
9.05 NOTICE OF DEFAULT. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event
of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal,
interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Banks, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
written notice from a Bank or the Borrower referring to this Agreement,
describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
"Notice of Default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such
a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks.
The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default
or Event of Default as shall be requested by the Majority Banks in accordance
with Article VIII; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that unless and until the
Administrative Agent shall have received any such request, the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it
shall reasonably deem advisable.
69
9.06 CREDIT DECISION. Each Bank expressly acknowledges that none of
the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it and that
no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the
affairs of the Borrower, and each of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any
Bank. Each Bank represents to the Administrative Agent that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations,
property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower,
and each of its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating
to the transactions contemplated thereby, and made its own decision to enter
into this Agreement and extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Bank also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary
to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial
and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices,
reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the
Banks by the Administrative Agent (which shall be deemed to include documents
delivered to the Administrative Agent with sufficient copies for each Bank
pursuant to Sections 4.01, 6.01 and 6.02), the Administrative Agent shall not
have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other
information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial
and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the
possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.
9.07 INDEMNIFICATION. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be consummated, the Banks shall indemnify upon demand the
Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the
Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any
kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the
repayment of the Advances and the termination or resignation of the
Administrative Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such
Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document
contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any such Person
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
Bank shall be liable for the payment of the Agent-Related Persons of 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 limiting the foregoing, but
subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, each Bank shall
reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any
costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements for counsel,
allocated costs for internal legal services, and disbursements of internal
counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of,
or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein
to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such
70
expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, if the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental
Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the
Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or
for the account of any Bank (because the appropriate form was not delivered,
was not properly executed, or because such Bank failed to notify the
Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the
exemption from or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other
reason) such Bank shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all
amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or
otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed
by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under
this Section, together with all costs and expenses and attorneys' fees
(including fees and disbursements of counsel, allocated costs of internal
legal services, and all disbursements of internal counsel). The obligation of
the Banks in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations
hereunder.
9.08 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND DOCUMENTATION AGENT EACH IN
INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. First Hawaiian Bank and its Affiliates and Bank of America,
N.A. and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the
account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally
engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with
the Borrower, and any and all Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Borrower as
though First Hawaiian Bank was not the Administrative Agent and Bank of America,
N.A. was not the Documentation Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent
of the Banks. With respect to its Advances, First Hawaiian Bank and Bank of
America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other
Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent
and Documentation Agent, respectively, and the terms "Bank" and "Banks" shall
include First Hawaiian Bank and Bank of America, N.A. in their individual
capacities.
9.09 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent may,
and at the request of all of the other Banks shall, resign as Administrative
Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Banks. If the Administrative Agent shall
resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Banks (other than the
Administrative Agent) holding 66% of the balance of the Aggregate Commitment
(i.e., the Aggregate Commitment less the Revolving Commitment held by the
Administrative Agent) shall, with the approval of the Borrower, appoint from
among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks. If no successor agent is
appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks and
the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to
all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the
term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent and the retiring
Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent
shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and
Sections 10.04 and 10.05 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. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative
Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's
notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall
nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Banks shall perform
71
all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if
any, as a successor agent is appointed, as provided for above.
9.10 DOCUMENTATION AGENT. Bank of America N.A. in its capacity as
the Documentation Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except
those that may be required from time to time by the Administrative Agent and
accepted in writing by Bank of America N.A.
ARTICLE X

and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall,
unless in writing and signed by all the Banks and the Borrower and acknowledged

or all the Banks, as the case may
72
be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document.
10.02 NOTICES

provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including, unless the context

copy original thereof, and, provided further that any notice, request or other

authorized by the Borrower to give such notice and the Administrative Agent and
the Banks shall not have any liability to the Borrower or any other Person on
account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent or the
Banks in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of
the Borrower to repay the Advances shall not be affected in any way or to any
extent by any failure by the Administrative Agent and the Banks to receive
written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the
Administrative Agent and the Banks of a confirmation which is at variance with
the terms understood by the Administrative Agent and the Banks to be contained
in the telephonic or facsimile notice.
10.03 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
10.04 COSTS AND EXPENSES. The Borrower shall, whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated:
(a) pay or reimburse First Hawaiian Bank (including First

and disbursements (including all fees and disbursements of counsel, the

Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents
or attorneys-in-fact (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified
Liabilities"). The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other
Obligations.

Agent nor the Banks shall be under any obligation to xxxxxxxx any assets in
favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all
of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments
to the Administrative Agent or the Banks, or the Administrative Agent or the
Banks exercise their rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the
proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent
in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in
connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, or otherwise, then to the extent of
such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had
not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.
74
10.07 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The provisions of this Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign
or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Bank, (ii) the
Administrative Agent may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations
except as provided in Section 9.09, and (iii) no Bank may assign its rights and
obligations except (a) as provided in Section 2.09, (b) as provided in Section
3.06, and (c) as provided in Section 10.08.
10.08 ASSIGNMENTS, PARTICIPATIONS, ETC.
(a) Upon notice to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, any Bank may, as long as no Event of Default has occurred or is
occurring, sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates
of the Borrower (a "Participant") participating interests in any Advances, the
Revolving Commitment of that Bank and the other interests of that Bank (the
"originating Bank") hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Borrower shall have no additional expense as a result of such
participation, and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that (i) the originating Bank's
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating
Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations,
(iii) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely
and directly with the originating Bank in connection with the originating Bank's
rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
(iv) no Bank shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the
Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or
waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In the case
of any participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of
Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 10.05 as though it were also a Bank hereunder, and not
have any other rights under this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents,
and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such
Bank had not sold such participation; except that, if amounts outstanding under
this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have
become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its
participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent
as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a
Bank under this Agreement.
(b) From time to time following the Closing Date, each
Bank may assign to one or more Eligible Assignee all or any portion of its
Revolving Commitment; PROVIDED that (i) such Eligible Assignee shall be approved
by the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld)
and by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and which
approval shall not be necessary after an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing), (ii) such assignment shall be evidenced by a "Commitment Assignment
and Acceptance" (in the form of Exhibit "H" attached hereto), a copy of which
shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent as hereinbelow provided; (iii)
EXCEPT in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of an assigning Bank, to
another Bank or of the entire remaining Revolving Commitment of the assigning
Bank, the assignment shall not assign a portion of the Revolving Commitment
which is less than $15,000,000 and that is not an integral multiple of
$5,000,000 (which restrictions shall not apply while an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing), and (iv) the effective date of any such assignment
shall be as specified in the Commitment Assignment and Acceptance, but not
earlier than the date which is five (5) Business Days after
75
the date the Administrative Agent has received the Commitment Assignment and
Acceptance. Upon the effective date of such Commitment Assignment and
Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be a Bank for all
purposes of this Agreement with the Revolving Commitment therein set forth
and, to the extent of such assigned Revolving Commitment, the assigning Bank
shall be released from its further obligations under this Agreement.
(c) By executing and delivering a Commitment Assignment
and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and agrees that:
(i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and
beneficial owner of the Revolving Commitment being assigned thereby free and
clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Bank has made no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or
the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Bank has made no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the
financial condition of the Borrower or the performance by the Borrower of its
obligations under this Agreement; (iii) it has received a copy of this
Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements
delivered pursuant to this Agreement and such other documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter
into such Commitment Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any 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; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
action and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent
by this Agreement; and (vi) it will perform in accordance with their terms all
of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
performed by it as a Bank.
(d) After receipt of a completed Commitment Assignment
and Acceptance executed by an assigning Bank and an Eligible Assignee, and
receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such Eligible Assignee, the
Administrative Agent shall, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the effective
date thereof, provide to the Borrower and the Banks a revised Schedule "1",
giving effect thereto.
(e) Each Bank agrees to take normal and reasonable
precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all
information identified as "confidential" by the Borrower and provided to it by
the Borrower or any Subsidiaries of the Borrower, or by the Administrative Agent
on the Borrower's or such Subsidiary's behalf, in connection with this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, and neither such Bank nor any of its Affiliates
shall disclose any such information for any purpose or in any manner other than
pursuant to the terms contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent such
information was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a
result of a disclosure by such Bank; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any Bank may
disclose such information (A) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of
any Governmental Authority to which such Bank is subject or in connection with
an examination of such Bank by any such authority; (B) pursuant to subpoena or
other court process; (C) when required to do so in accordance with the
provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (D) to the extent reasonably
required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the
Administrative Agent, any Bank or their respective Affiliates may be party; (E)
to the extent
76
reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder
or under any other Loan Document; and (F) to such Bank's independent auditors
and other professional advisors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower
authorizes each Bank to disclose to any assignee and proposed assignee, and
to any Participant and any prospective Participant, such financial and other
information in such Bank's possession concerning the Borrower or its
Subsidiaries which has been delivered to the Administrative Agent or the
Banks pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to the
Administrative Agent or the Banks by the Borrower in connection with the
Banks' credit evaluation of the Borrower prior to entering into this
Agreement; PROVIDED that, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower, such
recipient agrees in writing to such Bank to keep such information
confidential to the same extent required of the Banks hereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Bank may assign all or
any portion of the Advances made by it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the United
States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal
Reserve Board and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank,
provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Advances made by the
Borrower to or for the account of the assigning or pledging Bank in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower's obligations
hereunder in respect of such assigned Advances to the extent of such payment. No
such assignment shall release the assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.
10.09 SET-OFF. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks
provided by law, if an Event of Default exists, each Bank is authorized at any
time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such
notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time
owing to, such Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against
any and all Obligations owing to such Bank, now or hereafter existing,
irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Banks shall have
made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such
Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application
made by such Bank; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank
under this Section are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including
other rights of set-off) which such Bank may have.
10.10 AUTOMATIC DEBITS OF FEES. Upon approval by the Borrower of any
invoice with respect to any fee, or any other cost or expense (including fees
and disbursements of counsel, the allocated costs of internal legal services and
disbursements of internal counsel) due and payable to the Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents, the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the
Administrative Agent to debit any deposit account of the Borrower with the
Administrative Agent in an amount such that the aggregate amount debited from
all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other cost or expense. If
there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the
fee or other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or
in part, in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion) and such amount not
debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section shall be
deemed a setoff.
77
10.11 NOTIFICATION OF ADDRESSES, LENDING OFFICES, ETC. Each Bank
shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any changes in the address
to which notices to such Bank should be directed, of addresses of any of its
Lending Offices, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made
to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the
Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
10.12 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement in any number of separate counterparts, each of
which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said
counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same
instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties
shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
10.13 SEVERABILITY. The illegality or unenforceability of any
provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder
shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required
hereunder.
10.14 NO THIRD PARTIES BENEFITTED. This Agreement is made and
entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the
Banks and the Administrative Agent, and their permitted successors and assigns,
and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have
any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any Bank shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this
Agreement or other Loan Documents.
10.15 TIME. Time is of the essence as to each term or provision of
this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents.
10.16 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION.
(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF HAWAII; PROVIDED THAT THE BORROWER, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL
LAW.
(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE
OF HAWAII OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE DISTRICT OF HAWAII, AND BY EXECUTION
AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE BANKS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING
ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON
CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT
RELATED HERETO. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS EACH
78

BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY HAWAII LAW.
10.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE BANKS AND THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH WAIVES THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF
ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY
ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO
CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWER, THE BANKS AND THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE
TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE
PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY ARE WAIVED

understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject
matter hereof and thereof; PROVIDED, that the agency fee letter agreement
referenced in subsection 2.11(e) shall govern the payment by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent of such agency fee, and that the relationship between the
Administrative Agent and the Banks, and among the Banks themselves, shall also
be subject to the terms and provisions of the Inter-Bank Agreement.
