THE COMMITMENTS AND BORROWINGS

2.01 The Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Term Lender severally agrees to make loans (each a “Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Term Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time during the Term Loan Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding its Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitments, such Term Loans to be used for the purposes set forth in Section 6.14; provided that, after giving effect to the making of any Term Loans, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment or (b) the Commitment Availability.

(a) DSR Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request any Issuing Lender to Issue a DSR Letter of Credit at any time and from time to time during the Letter of Credit Availability Period.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension. To request the Issuance of a DSR Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender) to an Issuing Lender selected by it and the Administrative Agent (no later than three Business Days prior to the requested date of Issuance) a Notice of Issuance in the form of Exhibit A-3 requesting the Issuance of a DSR Letter of Credit, and specifying the date of Issuance (which shall be a Business Day and shall comply with this Section 2.02), the date on which such DSR Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with clause (d) of this Section 2.02), the amount of such DSR Letter of Credit and such other information as shall be reasonably necessary to prepare or Issue such DSR Letter of Credit; provided that no such Notice of Issuance shall be required in respect of an automatic extension of the expiry date of any DSR Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of such DSR Letter of Credit. Subject to a final expiration date as specified in clause (d)(ii) of this Section 2.02, each DSR Letter of Credit shall provide for the automatic extension of the expiry date thereof unless the applicable Issuing Lender gives notice in accordance with the DSR Letter of Credit that such expiry date shall not be extended, and such Issuing Lender shall give such notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in a notice given not more than 60 days, but not less than 45 days, prior to the current expiry date of such DSR Letter of Credit; provided that any such notice may be sent by such Issuing Lender only if the conditions set forth in Section 4.04(b) are not satisfied as of such date or as required by the applicable Issuing Lender’s internal policies (consistently applied) or any Applicable Law applicable to such Issuing Lender; provided further that, if any DSR Letter of Credit is outstanding on the last day of the applicable Availability Period, the applicable Issuing Lender shall thereafter give such notice in accordance with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower also

shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a DSR Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, any Issuing Lender relating to any DSR Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(c) Limitations on Amounts and Uses. A DSR Letter of Credit shall be Issued only if (and upon Issuance of such DSR Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such Issuance, (i) the Issuing Lenders’ Letter of Credit Exposure shall not exceed its Issuing Commitment, and (ii) the sum of (A) the total Letter of Credit Exposures and (B) the total outstanding principal amount of Letter of Credit Loans shall not exceed the total Letter of Credit Loan Commitments.

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) Reimbursement Obligations Absolute.

(i) If any Issuing Lender shall make any Letter of Credit Disbursement in respect of any applicable DSR Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such Letter of Credit Disbursement to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account no later than the Business Day after such Letter of Credit Disbursement, in an amount equal to the full amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement plus accrued interest thereon from the Disbursement Date to the date of repayment of the Letter of Credit Disbursement at the rate of interest that would apply to a Base Rate Loan in accordance with Section 2.10 (each, a “Reimbursement Obligation”), which obligation of the Borrower shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such DSR Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any claim, set-off right, defense or other right against a beneficiary or any transferee of any DSR Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person that the Borrower or any Lender may have, (iii) any draft or other document presented under such DSR Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iv) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under such DSR Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not substantially comply with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit, (v) any breach of contract or dispute among or between Borrower, an Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, (vi) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a DSR Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any Letter of Credit Disbursement or any other act or omission of such beneficiary in connection with such DSR Letter of Credit, (vii) failure to preserve

Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure of the Borrower to pay a Reimbursement Obligation in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder to the extent such Reimbursement Obligation converts to a Letter of Credit Loan in accordance with 2.02(h).

(ii) Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any DSR Letter of Credit by any applicable Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any DSR Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any failure of the beneficiary of any DSR Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to be able to draw on such DSR Letter of Credit, any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that, after paying in full its obligation to reimburse Letter of Credit Disbursements as provided in this 2.02(f), the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a DSR Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction on the part of an Issuing Lender:

(A) such Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of an applicable DSR Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit;

(B) such Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to decline to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such DSR Letter of Credit; and

(C) clauses (A) and (B) above shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by an Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under an applicable DSR Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

(g) Disbursement Procedures. An Issuing Lender for any applicable DSR Letter of Credit shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for an applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement under such DSR Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by electronic communication of such demand for such Letter of Credit Disbursement and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make such Letter of Credit Disbursement thereunder and the date (the “Disbursement Date”) of such Letter of Credit Disbursement; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse (without duplication) such Issuing Lender with respect to any such Letter of Credit Disbursement.

(h) Letter of Credit Disbursement and Borrowing. If any Issuing Lender shall make any Letter of Credit Disbursement and in the event that the Borrower does not repay any Letter of Credit Disbursement on or before the Business Day following such Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in Section 2.02(f)(i), the Borrower shall automatically be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Letter of Credit Loans, as of the applicable Disbursement Date, in an amount equal to the Reimbursement Obligation applicable to such Letter of Credit Disbursement and such Reimbursement Obligation shall become a Letter of Credit Loan made by the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder as of the applicable Disbursement Date and shall be deemed to be a borrowing of Letter of Credit Loans hereunder on such day and bear interest in accordance with Section 2.09 from the applicable Disbursement Date. Each such Letter of Credit Loan shall initially be made as a Base Rate Loan and the Borrower shall have the right to convert such Base Rate Loan to a LIBO Rate Loan in accordance with Section 2.02. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph and Section 2.09 shall be for account of the applicable Issuing Lender. Each such Letter of Credit Loan shall be repaid in accordance with Section 2.08 and amounts prepaid or repaid in respect of such Letter of Credit Loans may be reborrowed.

(i) Cash Collateralization. If (i) the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (ii) an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders demand the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph or (iii) any Event of Default with respect to any Owner Party described in Section 8.01(f) shall occur, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into an account established and maintained on the books and records of the Collateral Agent, which account shall be a Securities Account in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 102% of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Exposure as of such date (or any applicable amount required by Section 2.08)

plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (f) of Section 8.01. Any deposit made pursuant to this 2.02(i) shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure under this Agreement and shall in the case of a Letter of Credit Disbursement in respect of any DSR Letter of Credit be applied to the payment of the Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Loans arising as a result of such Letter of Credit Disbursement; provided that any failure or inability of the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent for any reason to apply such amounts shall not in any manner relieve any Issuing Lender of its obligations under 2.02(h). Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. For this purpose the Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders in such collateral account and any “financial assets” (as defined in the UCC) or other property held therein. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder, upon the expiration or termination of each DSR Letter of Credit, the amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) by which the cash collateral exceeds 102% of the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be (i) first, applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower then due and payable under the Loan Documents as of such date and (ii) second, returned to the Borrower.

(j) Replacement of an Issuing Lender. (i)Any Issuing Lender may be replaced or an additional Acceptable Bank appointed as an Issuing Lender at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, a new Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (with notice to such replaced Issuing Lender); provided that, if the replaced Issuing Lender so requests, any DSR Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender shall be replaced and cancelled prior to the removal of such Issuing Lender and all fees and other amounts owed to such removed Issuing Lender shall be paid to it; provided, further, that any Acceptable Bank that is to be appointed as a Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.02(j) must also assume such Issuing Lenders Letter of Credit Loan Commitment.

(i) At any time the unsecured senior debt obligations of an Issuing Lender (other than ING Capital LLC) cease to be rated at least Baa1 by Moody’s and at least BBB+ by S&P or, if the unsecured senior debt obligations of an Issuing Lender (other than ING Capital LLC) are rated exactly Baa1 by Moody’s or BBB+ by S&P and such Issuing Lender is placed on negative credit watch by S&P or Moody’s, or such Issuing Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then such Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written request of the Borrower; provided that the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time such request is made. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall return or Cash Collateralize all issued and outstanding DSR Letters of Credit issued by the replaced Issuing Lender and, at the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender (to the extent required by the terms of this Agreement).

(ii) From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) any successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to DSR Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto to the extent that DSR Letters of Credit issued by it remain outstanding and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to DSR Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional DSR Letters of Credit.

2.04 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate or reduce, on a pro rata basis among Lenders, the Term Loan Commitments, from time to time; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Term Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Term Loans would exceed the Term Loan Commitments, as applicable. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Term Loan Commitments.

(b) In connection with any reduction or termination of the Term Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.03(a), other than in connection with the simultaneous repayment of all Term Loans outstanding and termination of all of the Term Loan Commitments, the Borrower shall certify, with confirmation by the Lenders’ Technical and Environmental Consultant (based on the funds expended against the Construction Budget and Schedule as demonstrated in the reports provided by the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.02(f)), that, after giving effect to such reduction in the Commitments, the Equity Contributions plus amounts on deposit in the Construction Account plus any remaining available Commitments are sufficient to pay the Borrower’s share of the estimated remaining Project Costs and achieve the Conversion Date by the Date Certain.

(d) The Borrower shall not be permitted to reduce or terminate any Issuing Commitments or Letter of Credit Loan Commitments.

2.05 Prepayments.

(a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment; and (B) any prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding; provided that, for any partial prepayment of the Term Loans prior to the Conversion Date, the Borrower shall certify, with confirmation by the Lenders’ Technical and Environmental Consultant (based on the funds expended against the Construction Budget and Schedule as demonstrated in the reports provided by the Borrower pursuant to Section 6.02(f)), that, after giving effect to such prepayment of Term Loans, the Equity Contributions plus amounts on deposit in the Construction Account plus any remaining available Commitments are sufficient to pay the Borrower’s share of the estimated remaining Project Costs and achieve the Conversion Date by the Date Certain. Each such notice shall be executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if LIBO Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Loans being prepaid). If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided that, any such notice may be revoked (it being understood that the Borrower shall be responsible for losses, costs and expenses in connection therewith in accordance with Section 3.05).

(b) Mandatory.

(i) Cash Sweep. On each Repayment Date, to the extent of any cash remaining in the Revenue Account after application of clauses (A) through (F) of Section 3.03(b)(i) of the Depositary Agreement, the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to the amount by which the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding as of such Repayment Date is greater than the then-applicable Target Debt Balance.

(ii) Performance Liquidated Damages. In the event that the Project Company receives Performance Liquidated Damages pursuant to any Material Project Document, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount distributed to the Borrower in accordance with the Project Company LLC Agreement in respect of such Performance Liquidated Damages (which amounts received by the Borrower shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment, in each case, pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement).

(iii) Loss Proceeds. In the event that the Borrower receives Net Cash Proceeds in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Loss, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds (which amounts received by the Borrower shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment, in each case, pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement).

(iv) Termination Payments. In the event that the Project Company receives any Termination Payments, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount distributed to the Borrower in accordance with the Project Company LLC Agreement in respect of such Termination Payments (which amounts received by the Borrower shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment, in each case, pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement).

(v) Dispositions by the Project Company. In connection with a Disposition by the Project Company not otherwise permitted by Section 7.05, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount distributed to the Borrower in accordance with the Project Company LLC Agreement in respect of the Net Cash Proceeds in connection with such Disposition (which amounts received by the Borrower shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment, in each case, pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement). The provisions of this Section 2.05(b)(v) do not constitute a consent to the consummation of any Disposition not permitted by Section 7.05.

(vi) Debt Incurrence. Upon the incurrence or issuance by the Borrower or the Project Company of any Indebtedness (in each case, other than Indebtedness expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.02), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower in connection therewith (which in the case of any such Net Cash Proceeds received by the Project Company shall be the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds distributed to the Borrower under the Project Company LLC Agreement). All such Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment, in each case, pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement. The provisions of this Section 2.05(b)(vi) do not constitute a consent to the incurrence of any Indebtedness not permitted by Section 7.02.

(vii) Suspended Distributions. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans to the extent and in the amount required pursuant to Section 3.03(g)(ii) of the Depositary Agreement or Section 3.03(j)(ii) of the Depositary Agreement.

(viii) Dispositions of Equity Interests in the Project Company. In connection with a Disposition by the Borrower of any Equity Interests in the Project Company, the Borrower shall (A) prepare revised base case projections delivered as part of the Financial Model on the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent giving pro forma effect to such Disposition (and any corresponding reduction in projected distributions of “Available Cash” to be made to the Borrower under the Project Company LLC Agreement), (B) together with such revised base case projections, deliver a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent certifying the amount of the Loans that would need to be prepaid in order to satisfy the Target Debt Balance based on such revised base case projections (such amount, the “Equity Interest Disposition Prepayment Amount”), such certificate to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders, (C) prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the amount distributed to the Borrower under the Project Company LLC Agreement in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds in connection with such Disposition (which amounts shall be deposited into the Prepayment Account, and withdrawn therefrom to make such mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement), and (y) the Equity Interests Disposition Prepayment Amount, and (D) in the event that the amount of the prepayment contemplated by the foregoing clause (C) is less than the Equity Interests Disposition Prepayment Amount, prepay the Loans in accordance with Section3.03(i) of the Depositary Agreement until such time as the aggregate prepayments contemplated by the foregoing clause (C) and by this clause (D) equals the Equity Interests Disposition Prepayment Amount. The provisions of this Section 2.05(b)(viii) do not constitute a consent to the consummation of any Disposition not permitted by the Loan Documents.

(ix) Indemnity Payments. In the event that the Borrower receives Indemnity Payments in excess of $500,000, individually or in the aggregate, pursuant to the Project Company LLC Agreement, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Indemnity Payments, such prepayment to be made within three (3) Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt of such Indemnity Payments.

(x) Conversion Date Debt/Equity Ratio True-up. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans then outstanding, on the Conversion Date, to the extent of cash remaining in the Construction Account after application of clauses (A) through (C) of Section 3.03(a)(ii) of the Depositary Agreement, to the extent required and in an amount such that, after giving effect to such withdrawals and transfers pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(ii) of the Depositary Agreement, any Borrowings on the Conversion Date and such prepayment, the Debt to Equity Ratio (as determined pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof) shall be no greater than 50:50. No prepayment shall be required pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.05(b)(x) if as of the Conversion Date (after giving effect to borrowings and equity contributions made on the Conversion Date), the Debt to Equity Ratio is not greater than 50:50.

Each prepayment made pursuant to clauses (b)(ii) through (b)(x) shall be applied pro rata to the Lenders and Hedge Banks first, to prepay the Term Loans, together with accrued interest thereon and any amount required by Section 3.05 (if applicable), and any Swap Termination Value required pursuant to Section 2.06(c); second, to the prepayment of the Letter of Credit Loans, together with accrued interest thereon and any amount required by Section 3.05 (if applicable); third, to Cash Collateralize any DSR Letters of Credit then outstanding and undrawn in an amount equal to in an amount equal to 102% of the Letter of Credit Exposure; and fourth, any amount remaining may be retained by the Borrower. Each such mandatory prepayment of the Loans (other than under clause (b)(ii)) shall be applied in inverse order of maturities. Each such prepayment of loans under clause (b)(ii) shall be applied pro rata to scheduled principal payments. Upon the Borrower’s prior written request, a prepayment of Borrowings of any Loans may be applied to prepay outstanding Base Rate Loans before any LIBO Rate Loans so long as such application does not affect the right any Lender would otherwise have to receive pro rata prepayments of the Loans held by such Lender.

2.06 Terms of Prepayments.

(a) Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be applied pro rata to the principal repayment installments thereof or in inverse order of maturity, as directed by the Borrower.

(b) Upon the prepayment of any Loan (whether such prepayment is an optional prepayment or a mandatory prepayment), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender which made such Loan (i) all accrued interest to the date of such prepayment owed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the amount prepaid, (ii) all accrued fees to the date of such prepayment owed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement corresponding to the amount being prepaid (other than any annual administrative agent or collateral agent fees), and (iii) any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

(c) In the event of any prepayment of Term Loans or any reduction or termination of Term Loan Commitments under this Agreement, such prepayment, reduction or termination shall be accompanied by a concurrent reduction by the Borrower of the notional amount of the Secured Hedge Agreements (including the payment of any Swap Termination Value that becomes due and payable as a result thereof) then in effect, pro rata, to the extent that such a reduction is necessary so that after such prepayment the aggregate notional amounts under such Secured Hedge Agreements would not exceed one hundred and five percent (105%) of all Term Loans outstanding.

2.07 Termination of Commitments. Each Term Lender’s remaining unused Term Loan Commitments shall be reduced to zero and thereafter terminated on the last Business Day of the Term Loan Availability Period. Each Issuing Lender’s remaining unused Letter of Credit Loan Commitments shall be reduced to zero and thereafter terminated on the last Business Day of the Letter of Credit Availability Period.

The Borrower shall repay (i) the outstanding principal amount of Letter of Credit Loans on each applicable Repayment Date, in accordance with Section 3.03(b)(i)(E) of the Depositary Agreement and (ii) to the extent not previously paid, all outstanding Letter of Credit Disbursements and Letter of Credit Loans on the earlier of (x) the Maturity Date and (y) the date of acceleration of the Loans pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2.09 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.09(b), (i) each LIBO Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) (i) If an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) shall have occurred and be continuing, interest on the amount of that payment due and unpaid shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws until the date of actual payment of that amount.

(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.10 Fees.

(a) Fee Letters. On the earlier of the first borrowing of the Term Loans and the date that is thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay the fees set forth in each of the Fee Letters. Such fees may be paid out of the proceeds of the Loans.

(b) Administrative Agency Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on the earlier of the first borrowing of the Term Loans and the date that is thirty (30) days following the Closing Date and on each other date as specified in the applicable Fee Letter, solely for the account of the Administrative Agent, the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent at the times set forth therein. Such amounts may be paid out of the proceeds of the Loans.

(c) Commitment Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender a commitment fee in respect of the Commitments for the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the last day of the applicable Availability Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Commitments of such Lender during the period for which payment is made (the “Commitment Fees”), payable on each Fee Payment Date prior to and including the last day of the applicable Availability Period (or, if the Commitments are cancelled or expire prior to a Fee Payment Date, on the date of such cancellation or expiration). For the purposes of this Section 2.10(c), Issuance of a DSR Letter of Credit shall constitute utilization of the Letter of Credit Loan Commitment on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

(d) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Issuing Lender (except as provided in Section 2.15) a fee with respect to its Issued DSR Letters of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Fee”) which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate applicable to interest on LIBO Rate Loans, on the average daily amount of the Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed Letter of Credit Disbursements) during the period from and including the Conversion Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Loan Commitment terminates and the date on which such Issuing Lender ceases to have any Letter of Credit Exposure. Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable in arrears on each Repayment Date and on the Maturity Date; provided, that any Letter of Credit Fees accruing after the date on which the Letter of Credit Loan Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

2.11 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (excluding Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the LIBO Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.12 Evidence of Indebtedness. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note in respect of its Commitment and Loans, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

2.13 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Loans (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of LIBO Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.03 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.03) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on

demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds 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.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f) Insufficient Funds. Except as provided in Section 8.03, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward 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, toward payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

2.14 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents 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 Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time)

of payment on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that:

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant.

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

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

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(b) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Sections 2.10(c), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this

Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans owed to all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans owed to such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c) Commitment Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

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

2.16 Conversion. The “Conversion Date” shall be the date on which each of the following conditions has been satisfied (unless waived in writing by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders)):

(a) Each of Mechanical Completion and Final Completion has occurred.

(b) To the extent required, the Borrower has made the mandatory prepayments of the Loans required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(x).

(e) Each of the Commitment Offtake Agreement shall be in full force and effect.

(f) Unless such Material Project Document (other than the Commitment Offtake Agreements) has expired or been replaced with a Replacement Project Document in accordance with Section 6.06, each Material Project Document (other than any Additional Project Document that is not also a Commitment Offtake Agreement to the extent its failure to be in full force and effect could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) shall be in full force and effect.

(g) All Loan Documents and the Project Company LLC Agreement shall be in full force and effect.

(h) The Debt Service Reserve Account shall have been funded in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

(i) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(o) The Administrative Agent shall have received copies of any Additional Project Documents and Applicable Governmental Authorizations entered into or obtained, transferred or required (whether because of the status of the construction or operation of the Project or otherwise) since the Closing Date to the extent not previously received.

ARTICLE III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii) If the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable Law to withhold or deduct any Taxes, then (A) the applicable Withholding Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by such Withholding Agent to be required, (B) such Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the

relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01(a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(i) The Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01(c)(i)) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (A) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (B) the Administrative Agent against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (C) the Administrative Agent against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, that are payable or paid 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

(d) Evidence of Payments. After any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

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

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

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

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

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

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

(E) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement, executed copies (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) of (A) if it is a U.S. Person, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or (B) if it is not a U.S. Person, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (certifying that it is either a qualified intermediary or a U.S. branch and the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a United States person with respect to payments under the Loan Documents), and, if required, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN-E with respect to any payment that it receives on its behalf under any Loan Document, in each case, with the effect that the Loan Parties can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case, until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBO Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans and (B) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a LIBO Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBO Rate Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan (in each case with respect to clause (a)(i) above, “Impacted Loans”), or (b) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such LIBO Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (A) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected LIBO Rate Loans or Interest Periods) and (B) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBO Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the LIBO Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the

Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBO Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Loan Notice of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a)(i) of this Section 3.03, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03, (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof.

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e));

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

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBO Rate Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate (or, in the case of clause (ii) above, any Loan), or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04 and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided that, the Borrower shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of profit) incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or

(c) any assignment of a LIBO Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.12;

excluding any loss of anticipated profits but including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBO Rate Loan made by it at the LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBO Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any Loans to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that, the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then at the request of the Borrower such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, and in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.12.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

3.08 Effect of Benchmark Discontinuance Event.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at or promptly after a Benchmark Transition Determination, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBO Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (which may include Term SOFR, to the extent publicly available quotes of Term SOFR exist at the relevant time), including any Replacement Benchmark Spread, in each case giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and adjustments or any selection, endorsement or recommendation by the Relevant Governmental Body with respect to such facilities (any such proposed rate, together with the Replacement Benchmark Spread, a (“Replacement Benchmark”), together with any proposed Replacement Benchmark Conforming Changes. Such Replacement Benchmark shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice or, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; provided that in no event shall such Replacement Benchmark be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Any such amendment with respect to an event under clause (a) of the definition of Benchmark Transition Determination shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment. Any such amendment with respect to an event under clause (b) of the definition of Benchmark Transition Determination shall become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of the LIBO Rate with a Replacement Benchmark pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall occur (i) prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date or (ii) prior to the effective date for such replacement, if any, specified in such amendment.

(c) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and each Lender of the occurrence of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. The Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of LIBO Rate Loans, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, if no such revocation is timely sent by the Borrower, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans (subject to the next sentence). During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the LIBO Rate component shall not be used in any determination of the Adjusted Base Rate.

ARTICLE IX.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints ING Capital LLC to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor Holdings shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; provided further that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for exercising, or not exercising, any right, power, authority or discretion given to it by, or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with, any Loan Document, other than by reason of its gross negligence or willful misconduct;

108

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender;

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent;

(f) shall not be liable, including, without limitation, for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever (but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Administrative Agent) arising as a result of (i) any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control or (ii) the general risks of investment in, or the holding of assets in, any jurisdiction, including (in each case and without limitation) such damages, costs, losses, diminution in value or liability arising as a result of nationalization, expropriation or other governmental actions; any regulation, currency restriction, devaluation or fluctuation; market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions or the value of assets (including any Disruption Event); breakdown, failure or malfunction of any third party transport, telecommunications, computer services or systems; natural disasters or acts of God; war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; or strikes or industrial action;

(g) shall not be liable for any delay (or any related consequences) in crediting an account with an amount required under the Loan Documents to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent has taken all necessary steps as soon as reasonably practicable to comply with the regulations or operating procedures of any recognized clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent for that purpose; and

(h) shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with Section 3.01(e).

109

9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document 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 of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents and no Party (other than the Administrative Agent) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of the Administrative Agent in respect of any claim it might have against the Administrative Agent or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Loan Document and any officer, employee or agent of the Administrative Agent may rely on this clause.

9.06 Resignation of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Borrower’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required during an Event of Default), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

110

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(g) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

111

9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding.

(a) In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.04.

(b) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or in any such proceeding.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (B) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (A) and (B), if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice, email or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.

(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Holdings, the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic messaging service, or through the Internet.

115

(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities Laws.

(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices and Committed Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right remedy, power or privilege, hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided that, the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further that, if

116

at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent and one local counsel in any appropriate jurisdiction), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not they became effective or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent and one law firm for all Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, of another firm of counsel for all affected Lenders) and one local counsel in any appropriate jurisdiction) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.04, or (B) in connection with Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

(b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one law firm for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and if appropriate, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, of another firm of counsel for all affected Indemnitees)), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower or any other Loan Party but excluding such Indemnitee and its Related Parties) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or emanating from the Project or any property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or the Project Company, or any Environmental Liability related to the Borrower or the Project Company or their respective properties, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating

117

to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or Holdings or any of the Borrower’s or Holdings’ directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Each Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 10.04(b), within thirty (30) days after the receipt by it of notice of any claim for which indemnity may be sought by it or by any Person controlling it from the Borrower on account of the agreements contained in this Section 10.04(b), shall notify the Borrower in writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that failure to so notify shall not prejudice any claim for which indemnity may be sought except to the extent that the Borrower is harmed thereby Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01(c), this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims and damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04(b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders’ Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided further that, the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee or other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. Subject to Section 10.07, no Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials distributed to such party by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be payable thirty (30) days after receipt of demand therefor.

118

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section 10.04 and the indemnity provision of Section 10.02(e) shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party for any reason, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall automatically be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and the Borrower shall pay the Lenders on demand all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees, expenses and disbursements of one counsel for all the Lenders) incurred by the Lenders in connection with the return of such funds by the Lenders, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor Holdings may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest in accordance with Section 10.06(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.06(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to an Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loans); provided that, any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

119

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section 10.06, the aggregate amount of the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans assigned;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section 10.06 and, in addition:

(A) prior to the Conversion Date, the consent of the Borrower shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(B) following the Conversion Date, the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(C) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided that, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment; and provided further that, such fee shall not apply to any transfers under Section 9.09. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms required pursuant to Section 3.01.

120

(v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 10.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(d).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and, with respect to its interests only, any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Eligible Person (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

121

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that, such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (b) through (h) and (j) in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 10.06 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation); provided that, such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.12 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.06 and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that, such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and, stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that, no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 10.06, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Loan Parties to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state.

122

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank (whether in the United States or any other jurisdiction) and to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) (in which case such Person agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority of such Person), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform the Loan Parties promptly thereof), (c) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law or regulation or as requested by a governmental authority (in which case such disclosing Person agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority of such Person), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform the Loan Parties promptly thereof), (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.07 and subject to the acknowledgement and acceptance by such party or prospective party or assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis in accordance with the standard syndication processes of the Arrangers or customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (f) on a confidential basis to (i) any sub-agent insurance broker, provider of credit protection, (ii) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (iii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers of other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.07 or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates from a third party that is not, to such Person’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations to the Sponsor, the Loan Parties, the Project Company or any of their respective Affiliates. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors and similar service providers to the Administrative Agent, Depositary Bank and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Sponsor, the Loan Parties or the Project Company relating to such Persons or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Sponsor, the Loan Parties or the Project Company. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

123

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Sponsor, the Loan Parties or the Project Company, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be unmatured or are owed to a branch or office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 10.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

124

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.11, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by bankruptcy Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.12 Replacement of Lenders. If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this Agreement and related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

125

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

(e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

129

The limitations on recourse set forth in this Section 10.19 shall survive the repayment in full of the Obligations, the termination of any Commitments hereunder and the earlier termination of this Agreement.
