Eurodollar Rate.
 
(a)          for any Interest Period with respect to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a comparable or successor rate divided by an amount equal to 1.00 minus the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage, which rate is approved by the Administrative Agent, as published on the applicable Bloomberg screen page (or such other commercially available source providing such quotations as may be designated by the Administrative Agent from time to time) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, for Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period) with a term equivalent to such Interest Period; and if the Eurodollar Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement;

15

If at any time (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR (including, without limitation, because the LIBOR is not available or published on a current basis on the applicable Bloomberg screen page or other service used by the Administrative Agent) and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR screen rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, or (iii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the United States syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest (the “Replacement Rate”) to the LIBOR that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 16.13, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of the Replacement Rate is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.  Until the Replacement Rate is determined (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this section, only to the extent the LIBOR for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any request that requests the conversion of any borrowing to, or continuation of any borrowing as, a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be ineffective and the borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto a Base Rate Loan, and (y) if the Loan Request requests a Eurodollar Rate Loan, such borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.  Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of Replacement Rate shall provide that in no event shall such Replacement Rate be less than zero for the purposes of this Agreement.  To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause, the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, the Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).
 
Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR or Replacement Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

2.1.         Commitment to Lend.
 
2.1.1.     Revolving Credit Loans.
 
(a)          Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time from the Restatement Date until the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with §2.6, such sums denominated in Dollars as are requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment minus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of (i) the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus (ii) the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans, provided that the sum of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Commitment at such time and (B) the Borrowing Base at such time.  The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage.  Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth above and in §11, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loans to be made on the Restatement Date, and §12, in the case of all other Revolving Credit Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.
 
(b)         On the Restatement Date, the aggregate amount of the unpaid Revolving Credit Loans outstanding under the Original Agreement as of the Restatement Date shall be reallocated among the Lenders, such that after giving effect to such reallocation, the Revolving Credit Loans owed to each Lender shall be equal to its Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Loans as reflected on Schedule 1.
 
2.2.        Commitment Fee.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) calculated at the rate per annum of the Applicable Margin with respect to the Commitment Fee as in effect from time to time on the actual daily amount during each calendar quarter or portion thereof from the Restatement Date to the Maturity Date by which the Total Commitment minus the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations exceeds the outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans (excluding Swing Line Loans) during such calendar quarter.  The Commitment Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter for such calendar quarter commencing on the first such date following the Restatement Date, with a final payment on the Maturity Date or any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate.
 
2.3.       Reduction of Total Commitment.  The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent to reduce by Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or an integral multiple thereof or to terminate entirely the Total Commitment, whereupon the Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated.  Promptly after receiving any notice of the Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.3, the Administrative Agent will notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of the substance thereof.  Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders the full amount of any Commitment Fee then accrued on the amount of the reduction.  No reduction or termination of the Commitments may be reinstated.  If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Total Commitments, the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Total Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit or Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.
 
39

(a)        The Revolving Credit 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 Revolving Credit 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 promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (each a “Revolving Credit Note”), which shall evidence such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans in addition to such accounts or records.  Each Lender may attach schedules to its Revolving Credit Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, amount, interest rate and maturity of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans and payments with respect thereto.
 
(b)        In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a) above, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(a)         Each Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (but in no event shall be the Base Rate be less than zero) plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans as in effect from time to time; provided, however, in the event that the interest rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans is less than the Eurodollar Rate then applicable for an Interest Period of one month plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect at such time, each Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate then applicable for an Interest Period of one month plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect at such time.
 
(b)       Each Revolving Credit Loan which is a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate (but in no event shall the Eurodollar Rate be less than zero) determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as in effect from time to time.
 
(c)          Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest from the applicable Drawdown Date thereof at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (but in no event shall be the Base Rate be less than zero) plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans as in effect from time to time; provided, however, that in the event the interest rate per annum applicable to Swing Line Loans is less than the Eurodollar Rate then applicable for an Interest Period of one month plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect at such time, each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate then applicable for an Interest Period of one month plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect at such time.

40

 The Borrower promises to pay interest on each Revolving Credit Loan made to it and each Swing Line Loan made to it in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

2.6.        Requests for Revolving Credit Loans.  The Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit C hereto of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) no less than (a) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan and (b) four (4) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurodollar Rate Loan.  Any Loan Request received by the Administrative Agent after 10:00 a.m., Pacific time, on any day shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next succeeding Business Day.  Each such notice shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan requested, (ii) the proposed Drawdown Date of such Revolving Credit Loan, (iii) the Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Loan and (iv) the Type of such Revolving Credit Loan.  Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof.  Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date.  Each Loan Request relating to a Base Rate Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and each Loan Request relating to a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).
 
2.7.         Conversion Options.
 
2.7.1.    Conversion to Different Type of Loan.  The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any outstanding Revolving Credit Loan to a Revolving Credit Loan of another Type, provided that (a) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of such election; (b) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least four (4) Eurodollar Business Days prior written notice of such election; (c) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (d) no Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  On the date on which such conversion is being made each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage, as the case may be, of such Revolving Credit Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may be.  All or any part of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of any Type may be converted into a Revolving Credit Loan of another Type as provided herein, provided that any partial conversion shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $500,000, in the case of conversion to Base Rate Loans, and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the case of conversion to Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Revolving Credit Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.  Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof.
 
2.7.2.    Continuation of Type of Loan.  A Revolving Credit Loan of any Type may be continued as a Revolving Credit Loan of the same Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the notice provisions contained in §2.7.1; provided that no Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default of which officers of the Administrative Agent active upon the Borrower’s account have actual knowledge.  In the event that the Borrower fails to provide any such notice with respect to the continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan as such, then such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly when any such automatic conversion contemplated by this §2.7 is scheduled to occur.
 
41

2.7.3.    Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Any conversion to or from Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Eurodollar Rate Loans having the same Interest Period shall not be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).  No more than ten (10) Eurodollar Rate Loans having different Interest Periods may be outstanding at any time.
 
2.8.         Funds for Revolving Credit Loans.
 
2.8.1.    Funding Procedures.  Not later than 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans, each of the Lenders will make available to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Loans.  Upon receipt from each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §§11 and 12 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders.
 
2.8.2.    Advances by Administrative Agent.  (a)  The Administrative Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Drawdown Date, assume that such Lender has made available to the Administrative Agent on such Drawdown Date the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date, and the Administrative Agent may (but it shall not be required to), 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 Revolving Credit Loan 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 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 Revolving Credit Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s share of such Revolving Credit Loan.  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.
 
(b)        Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on 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 relevant Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant 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.
 
42

(c)          A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under §§2.8.2(a) and (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
 
2.8.3.     Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Credit Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to §14.7 are several and not joint.  The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Credit Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under §14.7 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 Revolving Credit Loans, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under §14.7.
 
2.8.4.     Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this §2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable credit extension set forth in §§11 or 12 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.
 
2.8.5.     Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Revolving Credit 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.
 
2.9.       Change in Borrowing Base.  The Borrowing Base shall be calculated (based on the application of the formula contained in the definition of “Borrowing Base”) by the Borrower in connection with the delivery of each Loan Request and, in any case, no less frequently than monthly (and at such other intervals as may be specified pursuant to §8.4(f)) by reference to the Borrowing Base Report most recently delivered to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and such other information obtained by, or provided to, the Administrative Agent.
 
2.10.      Swing Line Loans.
 
2.10.1.   The Swing Line.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this §2.10, may in its sole discretion make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day from the Restatement Date until the Maturity Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans of the Revolving Credit Lender acting as the Swing Line Lender, when aggregated with such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (a) the sum of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Commitment at such time and (B) the Borrowing Base at such time, and (b) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this §2.10, prepay under §3.3, and reborrow under this §2.10.

2.10.2.  Borrowing Procedure.  Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable written request to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent.  Each such Swing Line Loan Notice must be appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower and received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.  Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of a Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (in writing) of the contents thereof.  Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of §2.10.1, or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in §§11 and 12 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 1:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower.
 
2.10.3.  Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.  (a)  The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding.  Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Loan Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of §§2.1 and 2.6, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Total Commitments and the conditions set forth in §12.  The Swing Line Lender shall furnish to the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Loan Request promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent.  Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the amount specified in such Loan Request available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the day specified in such Loan Request, whereupon, subject to §2.10.3(b), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

44

(b)         If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with §2.10.3(a), the request for Base Rate Loan submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to §2.10.3(a) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(c)         If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §2.10.3 by the time specified in §2.10.3(a), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing.  If such Revolving Credit Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be.  A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (c) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(d)        Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this §2.10.3 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this §2.10.3 is subject to the conditions set forth in §12.  No such funding or risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
 
2.10.4.  Repayment of Participations.           At any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Commitment Percentage of such payment in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.
 
(b)          If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.  The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.  The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

45

2.10.5.  Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender.  The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans.  Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this §2.10 to refinance such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Commitment Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.
 
2.10.6.   Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender.  The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.
 
2.11.     Delinquent Lenders.  Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Delinquent Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Delinquent Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
 
(a)          Waivers and Amendments.  That Delinquent Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in §16.12.
 
(b)         Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Delinquent Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to §13 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Delinquent Lender pursuant to §16.1), 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 that Delinquent Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Delinquent Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Delinquent Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Delinquent Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, 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 that Delinquent Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that Delinquent Lender as a result of that Delinquent Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, 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 that Delinquent Lender as a result of that Delinquent Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement (it being understood that the Borrower shall at all times retain its right to collect damages incurred as a result of a breach by a Delinquent Lender of its obligation hereunder); and eighth, to that Delinquent Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Delinquent Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §12 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Delinquent Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Delinquent Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Delinquent Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Delinquent Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this §2.11.1(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Delinquent Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
 
46

(c)         Certain Fees.  That Delinquent Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Delinquent 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 Delinquent Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in §4.6.
 
(d)        Reallocation of Commitment Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  During any period in which there is a Delinquent Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Delinquent Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to §§2.10 and 4, the “Commitment Percentage” of each non-Delinquent Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Delinquent Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Delinquent Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Delinquent Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Delinquent Lender minus (2) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of that Lender.
 
2.11.2.   Delinquent Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Delinquent Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Delinquent 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to §2.11.1(d)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Delinquent 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 that Lender was a Delinquent Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Delinquent Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Delinquent Lender.
 
2.12.      Payments Generally.  (a)  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 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable extension of credit set forth in Article 11 and/or 12 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, within two Business Days of the date on which the determination was made that such conditions were not satisfied or waived.

47

 (b)         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. In the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender to fund a Loan in any particular place or manner, the provisions of §5.5 shall apply.

(c)          Insufficient Funds.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, 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 and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties.
 
2.13.      Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Revolving Credit Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Borrowings held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, 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 Revolving Credit Loans and subparticipations in L/C Borrowings 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 principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:
 
(a)          if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
 
(b)         the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Delinquent Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Borrowings to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall apply).
 
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 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.
 
2.14.      Increase in Commitments.Request for Increase.  Provided there exists no Default, the Borrower may from time to time request an increase in the Total Commitment by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000) from and after the Restatement Date; provided that (i) any such request for an increase from (x) an Additional Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $20,000,000, and (y) an existing Lender shall be in an amount mutually acceptable to Borrower and such existing Lender, and (ii) any incremental commitments of the Lenders in connection with such increase shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation consistent with the terms and documentation applicable to the existing Revolving Credit Loans, except with respect to any upfront or similar fees that may be agreed to among the Borrower and any Additional Lender providing any additional commitments.  The Borrower may, at its option, request such increase from any Lenders or from Additional Lenders.  At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each relevant Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to such Lender).

48

 (b)     Lender Elections to Increase.  Any Lender which the Borrower requests to provide such increase shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, the amount by which such Lender is willing to increase its Commitment.  Any relevant Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.
 
(c)         Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each relevant Lender of the applicable Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder.  To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may, at its option, also invite additional Eligible Assignees that are not a Lender hereunder (such additional Lenders, an “Additional Lender”) to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.  Any requested increase in the Total Commitments need not be achieved in full in order for such requested increase to take effect with respect to the Commitments of any such Lenders who agree to such increase.
 
(d)         Effective Date and Allocations.  If the Total Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section 2.14, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, the Lenders and any Additional Lender of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.  The parties hereto authorize the Administrative Agent to amend Schedule 1 hereto as of each Increase Effective Date to reflect any increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.14.
 
(e)          Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase.  As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall:
 
(A)          deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 7 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14, the representations and warranties contained in Sections 7.4(a) and (b) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Sections 8.4(a) and (b), respectively, and (B) no Default exists or would exist after giving effect to such increase; and
 
49

(B)            prepay any Loans outstanding prior to such increase on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 5.9) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Commitment Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section 2.14.
 
(f)          Conflicting Provisions.  This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 16.12 to the contrary.
 
2.15.      Cash Collateral.
 
2.15.1.  Certain Credit Support Events. If (a) the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, (b) as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Exposure for any reason remains outstanding, (c) the Borrower shall be required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to §13.1, or (d) there shall exist a Delinquent Lender and corresponding Fronting Exposure, the Borrower shall immediately (in the case of clause (c) above) or within one (1) Business Day (in all other cases) following any request by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, provide Cash Collateral in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Collateral Amount (determined in the case of Cash Collateral provided pursuant to clause (d) above, after giving effect to §2.12.1(b) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Delinquent Lender).
 
2.15.2.  Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Delinquent Lender, such Delinquent Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to §2.13.3. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower shall pay on demand therefor from time to time all customary account opening, activity and other administrative fees and charges in connection with the maintenance and disbursement of Cash Collateral.
 
2.15.3.  Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this §2.13 or §§2.10.3, 4.1.1, 4.2(b), 4.2(c) or 13.1 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Exposure, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Delinquent Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
 
2.15.4.  Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following (a) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Delinquent Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with §15.1.2)) or (b) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (i) any such release shall be without prejudice to, and any disbursement or other transfer of Cash Collateral shall be and remain subject to, any other Lien conferred under the Loan Documents and the other applicable provisions of the Loan Documents, and (ii) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

3.2.        Mandatory Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans.  If at any time the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans exceeds the lesser of (i) the Total Commitment at such time, and (ii) the Borrowing Base at such time, then, in any case, the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders for application:  first, to any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations; second, to the Swing Line Loans; third, to the Revolving Credit Loans; and fourth, to provide to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral for Reimbursement Obligations as contemplated by §4.2.  Each payment of any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations or prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the applicable Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to each Reimbursement Obligation or (as the case may be) the respective unpaid principal amount of each applicable Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion.
 
3.3.         Optional Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans.
 
(a)          The Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium, provided that any full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount of any Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to this §3.3 may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto unless breakage costs incurred by the relevant Lenders in connection therewith are paid by the Borrower in accordance with §5.9(a).  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., Pacific time, at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Base Rate Loans, and four (4) Eurodollar Business Days’ prior written notice of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of relevant Revolving Credit Loans, the principal amount to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Periods of such Revolving Credit Loans.  Each such partial prepayment of the applicable Revolving Credit Loans shall be in a principal amount of at least $200,000, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of prepayment and shall be applied, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower, first, to the principal of Base Rate Loans and then to the principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the Administrative Agent’s option.  Each partial prepayment shall be allocated among the applicable Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Loans, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior repayments not exactly in proportion.
 
51

(b)          The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000.  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.  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.

4.1.1.     Commitment to Issue Letters of Credit.
 
(a)          Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, upon the execution and delivery by the Borrower of a letter of credit application on the L/C Issuer’s customary form (a “Letter of Credit Application”), the L/C Issuer on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders and in reliance upon the agreement of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this §4 and upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained herein, agrees, in its individual capacity, to issue, extend and renew for the account of the Borrower one or more standby letters of credit (individually, a “Letter of Credit”), in such form as may be requested from time to time by the Borrower, and agreed to by the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that, after giving effect to such request, (i) the sum of the aggregate Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit at any time, (ii) the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, plus the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the Total Commitment at such time and (y) the Borrowing Base at such time.  Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the issuance or amendment so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence.  Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
 
(b)          The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if:
 
(i)              Subject to §4.1.6, the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or
 
(ii)             the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry date.

4.1.2.     Procedures for the Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit.
 
(a)          Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower.  Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, at least three (3) Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be.  In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer:  (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require.  In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require.  Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require.
 
(b)          Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent, Borrower or any Guarantor, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in §§11 or 12 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
 
(c)          Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
 
4.1.3.    Applicability of the ISP and Uniform Customs.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.
 
54

4.1.4.    Reimbursement Obligations of Lenders.  Each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees that it shall be absolutely and unconditionally liable, without regard to the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or any other condition precedent or circumstance whatsoever, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever or (B) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, to the extent of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage, to reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent on demand for the amount of each draft paid by the L/C Issuer under each Letter of Credit to the extent that such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to §4.2 (such agreement for a Lender being called herein the “Letter of Credit Participation” of such Lender).
 
4.1.5.    Participations of Lenders.  Each such payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender shall be treated as the purchase by such Lender of a participating interest in the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation under §4.2 in an amount equal to such payment.  Each Revolving Credit Lender shall share in accordance with its participating interest in any interest which accrues pursuant to §4.2 and in any applicable security for such Reimbursement Obligation.
 
4.1.6.     Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.  If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that (i) any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than one (1) Business Day before the date (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period as agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued and (ii) any extension of an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit shall not extend the expiry date of such Letter of Credit to a date later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.  Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension.  Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of §4.1.1(b) or (c) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any Guarantor that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in §12 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.
 
55

4.2.        Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower.  In order to induce the L/C Issuer to issue, extend and renew each Letter of Credit and the Revolving Credit Lenders to participate therein, the Borrower shall reimburse or pay to the L/C Issuer, for the account of the L/C Issuer or (as the case may be) the Revolving Credit Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued, extended or amended by the L/C Issuer for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiary hereunder, by not later than 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, on each date that any draft presented under such Letter of Credit is honored (the “Honor Date”) by the L/C Issuer, or the L/C Issuer otherwise makes a payment with respect thereto, (i) the amount paid by the L/C Issuer under or with respect to such Letter of Credit and (ii) the amount of any taxes, fees, charges or other costs and expenses whatsoever incurred by the L/C Issuer or any Lender in connection with any payment made by the L/C Issuer or any Lender under, or with respect to, such Letter of Credit.  In addition, (x) upon the reduction (but not termination) of the Total Commitment to an amount less than the Maximum Drawing Amount, the Borrower shall reimburse or pay to the L/C Issuer, for the account of the L/C Issuer or (as the case may be) the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount equal to such difference, which amount shall be held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer as Cash Collateral for all Reimbursement Obligations, and (y) upon the termination of the Total Commitment, or the acceleration of the Reimbursement Obligations with respect to all Letters of Credit in accordance with §13, the Borrower shall reimburse or pay to the L/C Issuer, for the account of the L/C Issuer or (as the case may be) the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount equal to the then Maximum Drawing Amount on all Letters of Credit, which amount shall be held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer as Cash Collateral for all Reimbursement Obligations.
 
Each such payment shall be made to the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds.  Interest on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrower under this §4.2 at any time from the date such amounts become due and payable (whether as stated in this §4.2, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full (whether before or after judgment) shall be payable to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, on demand at the rate specified in §5.10 for overdue principal on the Revolving Credit Loans.
 
4.3.         Letter of Credit Payments.
 
(a)          If any draft shall be presented or other demand for payment shall be made under any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of the date and amount of the draft presented or demand for payment and of the date and time when it expects to pay such draft or honor such demand for payment.  If Borrower fails to reimburse the L/C Issuer as provided in §4.2 on or before the date that such draft is paid or other payment is made by the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may at any time thereafter notify the Lenders of the amount of any such Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the amount of each Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof.  In such event, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in §2.6 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the other conditions set forth in §§2.1, 2.6 and 12 (other than the delivery of a Loan Request).  Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this §4.3 may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.  Each Revolving Credit Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to §4.3 make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation not later than 1:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of §4.3(b), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.
 
56

(b)         With respect to any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation that is not fully refinanced by Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in §12 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate set forth in §5.10.1.  In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to §4.3(a) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this §4.
 
(c)          Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans or participations as set forth in this §4.3 to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.
 
(d)         If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §4.3 by the time specified in §4.3, the applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing.  If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be.  A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(e)         At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with §4.3, if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.  If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to §4.3 is required to be returned in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.  The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
 
57

4.4.        Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligations under this §4 shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever or any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit.  The Borrower further agrees with the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under §4.2 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financing institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee.  The L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit.  The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender under or in connection with each Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents, if done in good faith and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not result in any liability on the part of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Borrower.  The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer.  The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
 
4.5.        Role of Issuer.  Each Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.  None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.  The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.  None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in §4.4; provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower prove were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
 
58

4.6.        Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of each Letter of Credit the following fees (each, a “Letter of Credit Fee”) computed for the period from and including the date of issuance, extension or amendment of such Letter of Credit to the expiry date of such Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin per annum with respect to Letter of Credit Fees of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, which shall be for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Delinquent Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Delinquent Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the L/C Issuer pursuant to this §4 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Commitment Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.11.1(d), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the L/C Issuer for its own account.  Such Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on (i) the last Business Day of each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) for such calendar quarter and (ii) the Maturity Date.  In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay a fronting fee at the rate per annum previously agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, which shall be for the account of the L/C Issuer and which shall be payable quarterly in arrears on (i) the last Business Day of each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) for such calendar quarter and (ii) the Maturity Date.  In respect of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall also pay to the L/C Issuer for the L/C Issuer’s own account, at such other time or times as such charges are customarily made by the L/C Issuer, the L/C Issuer’s customary issuance, amendment, negotiation or document examination and other administrative fees as in effect from time to time.  Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
 
4.7.        Cash Collateral.  Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Exposure for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Maximum Drawing Amount and any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiary.  §§3.2, 4.2 and 13.1 set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder.  The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing.  Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Union Bank.
 
4.8.        Conflict with Issuer Documents.  In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.
 
4.9.        Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, the Borrower, CAI shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit and such Letters of Credit shall be deemed Letters of Credit issued for the account of CAI for the purposes of this Agreement.
 
59

4.10.     Replacement of L/C Issuer.  The Borrower may from time to time, upon not less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent), replace a previously designated L/C Issuer by designating another Lender as L/C Issuer (upon obtaining such Revolving Credit Lender’s prior written consent thereto and, provided that there are no outstanding Letters of Credit issued by, or obligations owing to, the L/C Issuer being so replaced).  Any such designation shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any designation and approval of a replacement L/C Issuer.  Upon any such approval of an L/C Issuer by the Administrative Agent and delivery by such replacement L/C Issuer to the Administrative Agent of contact information and such other information regarding such replacement L/C Issuer as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, such Lender shall be the “L/C Issuer” issuer for the purposes hereof, and references to the L/C Issuers shall mean and include such Lender in its capacity as L/C Issuer.  For the avoidance of doubt, if any L/C Issuer is replaced by the Borrower with another L/C Issuer, the L/C Issuer so replaced shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its replacement as L/C Issuer and all Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to this §4).

(i)  Each of the Loan Parties shall, and does hereby, severally 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 §5.2.2) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability and an explanation of the calculation of such amount delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each of the Loan Parties shall, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to §5.2.2(c)(ii) below.
 
61

(ii)          Each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or the L/C Issuer (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of §15.1.4 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or a Loan Party 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 and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).
 
(d)          Evidence of Payments.  Upon request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this §5.2.2, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, 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 to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.
 
(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 §5.2.2(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.
 
62

(ii)          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
 
(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 originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
 
(B)         any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the 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:
 
(I)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) 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-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
 
(II)            executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
 
(III)          in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate 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 and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E ( or W-8BEN, as applicable); or
 
(IV)          to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
 
63

(C)         any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
 
(D)         if a payment made to a Lender under any 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.
 
(iii)         Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this §5.2.2 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 the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be.  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 any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this §5.2.2, 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 a Loan Party under this §5.2.2 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 to the extent such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund 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 any Loan Party or any other Person.

64

(g)          Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this §5.2.2 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.. .
 
5.2.3.     FATCA.  The Administrative Agent and any 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 the Administrative Agent or such Lender becomes the Administrative Agent or a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in 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.
 
5.3.       Computations.  All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the Reference 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 pursuant to the provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed.  Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension.  The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans as reflected on the Revolving Credit Note Records from time to time shall be considered correct and binding on the Loan Parties unless within five (5) Business Days after receipt of any notice by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders of such outstanding amount, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Borrower to the contrary.
 
5.4.        Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rate.  If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof (a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (b) the Required Lenders reasonably determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
 
65

5.5.       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 Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar 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, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted..
 
5.6.        Additional Costs, etc.  If any Change in Law shall:
 
(a)          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 §5.12) or the L/C Issuer;
 
(b)          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, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
 
(c)           impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
 
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 Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered..

66

5.7.       Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of (i) reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, or (ii) increasing the amount of assets required to be maintained by such Lender or L/C Issuer, in each case, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered but only in an amount equal to such reduction and to the extent that such reduction is not otherwise reflected in the Base Rate or Eurodollar Rate.  Each Lender shall allocate such cost increase among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.
 
5.8.        Certificate; Delay.  A certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to §5.5, 5.6 or 5.7 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Loan Parties, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.  Failure or delay on the part of such Lender or the Administrative Agent to demand compensation pursuant to §5.5, 5.6 or 5.7 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to §5.5, 5.6 or 5.7 for any increased costs incurred or reductions (i) suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’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 six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof) or (ii) if such Lender or the Administrative Agent has not required other similarly situated borrowers or obligors to pay comparable amounts with respect to such increased costs or reductions.
 
5.9.        Indemnity.  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 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
 
67

(c)           any assignment of a Eurodollar 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 §14.7;
 
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 §5.9, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.
 
5.10.      Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders
 
(a)          Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under §§5.6 or 5.7, requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to §5.2.2, if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to §5.5, or if any Lender requests payment of additional interest pursuant to §5.12, then at the request of the Borrower such Lender or the L/C Issuer 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 or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to §§5.2.2, 5.6, 5.7 or 5.12, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to §5.5, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.
 
5.11.      Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under §§5.6 or 5.7, 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 §5.2.2 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with §5.10(a), the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with §14.5.4.
 
5.11.1.   Overdue Amounts.  Overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Line Loans and all other overdue amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall bear interest from the due date compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest then applicable thereto (or, if no rate of interest is then applicable thereto, the Base Rate) until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment).  An amount shall be considered overdue hereunder if not paid on the date fixed for payment herein or any accelerated maturity thereof, regardless of any grace periods which may be permitted under §13.1 (a) or (b) hereof.
 
5.11.2.   Amounts Not Overdue.  During the continuance of an Event of Default the principal of the Revolving Credit Loans shall, until such Event of Default has been cured or remedied or such Event of Default has been waived by the Required Lenders pursuant to §16.12, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) two percent (2%) above the rate of interest otherwise applicable to such Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, pursuant to §2.5 or (b) the rate of interest applicable to overdue principal pursuant to §5.11.1.
 
68

5.12.      Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. To the extent not otherwise reflected in the Eurodollar Rate, 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 Eurodollar 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 the Borrower shall have received at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender including a brief explanation of such costs. If a Lender fails to give notice thirty (30) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice.
 
5.13.      Survival.  All of the Loan Parties’ obligations under this §5 shall survive termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.
 
6.             COLLATERAL SECURITY AND GUARANTIES.
 
6.1.       Collateral Security and the Guarantors.  All of the Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens that are entitled to priority under applicable law) in all of the assets constituting Collateral (which shall include, without limitation, all Railcars, all lease agreements relating to the Railcars, and all products and proceeds thereof) of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors who are Domestic Subsidiaries of the Borrower, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in each case pursuant to the terms of, and as provided in, the Security Documents to which the Borrower or such Guarantor is a party.
 
6.2.        Guaranties by CAI and Domestic Subsidiaries of Borrower.  The Obligations of the Borrower shall be guaranteed by CAI pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty contained in §17.  All of the Obligations shall be guaranteed by Domestic Subsidiaries of the Borrower, as required under §8.16, pursuant to the terms of a Guaranty substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a Securitization Entity that is a Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower shall not be subject to the guaranty requirements of this §6.2 or §8.16.
 
6.3.         Release of Railcars and Leases.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby authorized to) release its Lien on one or more Railcars and/or leases on such Railcars upon a request for such release by the Borrower or any Guarantor that is a Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower (a) in connection with a disposition of such Collateral permitted by this Agreement (including, without limitation, §9.5.2) and (b) with respect to Collateral consisting of Railcars and/or leases of such Railcars, at other times requested by the Borrower, so long as, in either such case, prior to any such release all of the following conditions are fulfilled: (i) the Borrower submits to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Report demonstrating that, after giving pro forma effect to any such requested release of such Railcars and/or leases of such Railcars, the Aggregate Indebtedness shall not exceed the lesser of (I) the Total Commitment at such time and (II) the Borrowing Base set forth in such Borrowing Base Report, (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists or would arise after giving effect to any such release, and (iii) the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower has made a good faith determination that (except for the reduction of the Borrowing Base caused by the release of Collateral), the overall quality of the Borrowing Base (taking into account the type, age and condition of the Railcars, lessee credit, lease terms and such other factors as may be relevant to valuation), measured after giving effect to such proposed partial release of Railcars and/or leases of such Railcars, will not be materially worse than the overall quality of the Borrowing Base immediately prior to such release of Railcars and/or leases of such Railcars.

8.19.4.  Removal of Property; Replacements.  The Borrower may, in the ordinary course of maintenance or repair of any Railcar, remove any item of property constituting a part of such Railcar, and unless the removal of such item is required by §8.19.1 hereof, the Borrower shall replace such item as promptly as practicable by an item of property that is free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens of the type set forth in §§9.2.1(ii), (v) (ix) or (xi)) and in as good operating condition as, and with a Fair Market Value, utility and remaining economic useful life at least equal to, the item of property being replaced, assuming that such replaced item was in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Agreement.  All items at any time removed from such Railcar in the ordinary course of maintenance and repair as provided in the preceding sentence shall remain subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement, no matter where located, until such time as such items shall be replaced in accordance with the terms specified above.  Upon any replacement item of property becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to any Railcar, without further act, (i) such replacement part shall become subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement and (ii) the replaced item of property shall no longer be subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement.  Upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the Borrower such documents as may be reasonably required to evidence the release of any replaced item of property from the Lien of the Security Agreement.

14.          THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
 
14.1.      Authorization.
 
(a)          Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints MUFG Union Bank N.A. to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Administrative Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including the authority, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent of the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect, maintain perfected or insure the priority of the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Administrative Agent.  The provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer, and neither the Borrower nor any of their Subsidiaries 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.
 
105

(b)         The relationship between the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders is that of an independent contractor.  The use of the term “Administrative Agent” is for convenience only and is used to describe, as a form of convention, the independent contractual relationship between the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders.  Nothing contained in this Credit Agreement nor the other Loan Documents shall be construed to create an agency, trust or other fiduciary relationship between the Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders.
 
(c)         As an independent contractor empowered by the Lenders to exercise certain rights and perform certain duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is nevertheless a “representative” of the Lenders, as that term is defined in Article 1 of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes of actions for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent with respect to all collateral security and guaranties contemplated by the Loan Documents.  Such actions include the designation of the Administrative Agent as “secured party”, “mortgagee” or the like on all financing statements, certificates of title and other documents and instruments, whether recorded or otherwise, relating to the attachment, perfection, priority or enforcement of any security interests, mortgages or deeds of trust in collateral security intended to secure the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, all for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.
 
(d)          The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this §14 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the L/C Issuer as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this §14 included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions (and including any affiliates of the L/C Issuer and the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of the L/C Issuer and any affiliates), and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.
 
14.2.          Employees and Administrative Agents.  The Administrative Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or sub-agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  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 Administrative Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.  The exculpatory provisions of this §14 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.
 
106

14.3.          No Liability.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Administrative Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; 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.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.  Except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  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, a Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer.  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 any Revolving Credit Loan, Swing Line Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Revolving Credit Loan, Swing Line Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  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.
 
107

14.4.      No Representations. General.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement, the Revolving Credit Notes, the Letters of Credit, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Revolving Credit Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Revolving Credit Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Revolving Credit Notes or to inspect any of the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries.  The Administrative Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower or any holder of any of the Revolving Credit Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.  The Administrative Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial conditions of the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries.
 
14.4.2.  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, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Credit Agreement.  Each Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer 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.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the satisfaction of any condition set forth in §§11 and 12 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
 
14.5.      Payments.
 
14.5.1.   Payments to the Administrative Agent.  A payment by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender.  The Administrative Agent agrees promptly to distribute to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents.
 
14.5.2.   Distribution by Administrative Agent.  If in the opinion of the Administrative Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Revolving Credit Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction.  If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.
 
14.5.3.   [Reserved]

14.5.4.  Replacement of Lender.  If any Lender (a) requests compensation under §§5.6 or 5.7, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to §5.6, or (b) is a Delinquent Lender, then CAI 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, §15), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an 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 specified in §15.1.2;
 
(b)         such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under §5.9) 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 §§5.6 or 5.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to §5.6, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
 
(d)          and such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.
 
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.
 
14.6.      Holders of Revolving Credit Notes.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Revolving Credit Notes, any participant in a Swing Line Loan or the purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participation as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.
 
14.7.     Indemnity.  To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required hereunder (including under §§16.2 and 16.3 hereof) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party (with the exception of any advisor), as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided 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), or the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party (with the exception of any advisor) of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Swing Line Lender or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this §14.7 are subject to the provisions of §2.8.3.
 
109

14.8.     Administrative Agent as Lender, etc.  In its individual capacity, Union Bank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Revolving Credit Notes, as the purchaser of participations in Swing Line Loans and as the purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participations, as it would have were it not also the Administrative Agent.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  Neither the Syndication Agent nor the Co-Documentation Agents shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under the Credit Agreement in such capacity, other than those applicable to all Lenders as Lenders.  The Arranger shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under the Credit Agreement in such capacity.
 
14.9.     Resignation.  The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the reasonable acceptance of the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall (a) be a Lender (or an Affiliate of a Lender), and (b) have an office in the United States, or an Affiliate 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 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including the reasonable acceptance of the Borrower); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring 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, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer 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 (2) 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, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section.  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 retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring 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).  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 Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this §14 and §§16.2 and 16.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
 
110

Any resignation by Union Bank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.
 
14.10.   Notification of Defaults and Events of Default.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof.  The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this §14.10 it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or Event of Default.
 
14.11.   Duties in the Case of Enforcement.  In case one of more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Required Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Administrative Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents authorizing the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and exercise all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral.  The Required Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Administrative Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Administrative Agent reasonably believes the Administrative Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.
 
14.12.   Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Revolving Credit Loan, Swing Line Loan or Reimbursement Obligation 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:
 
(a)          to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans or Reimbursement Obligations 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, the Swing Line Lender, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
 
(b)          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 and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, 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 hereunder (including under §§5.1, 16.2 and 16.3).
 
111

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, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
 
14.13.    Collateral and Guaranty Matters.  The Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,
 
(a)        to release, or authorize the release of, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Total Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold, to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition or other transaction permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) if such release is permitted under §6.3 or (iv) subject to §16.12, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;
 
(b)          to subordinate, or authorize the subordination of, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by §9.2.1(viii) or (xiii); and
 
(c)          to release, or authorize the release of, any Guarantor (other than CAI) from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.
 
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this §14.13.
 
14.14.   Withholding Tax.  To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax, provided any such amounts withheld shall be timely paid over to the appropriate taxing authority.  If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or any other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.
 
112

14.15.   Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Arrangements. Each of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, for and on behalf of the Secured Parties, to be the representative of the Secured Parties in connection with, and to enter into on behalf of the Secured Parties, (i) an intercreditor agreement, with respect to the Collection Account and amounts on deposit therein, between and among the Borrower, each Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower that is a Guarantor, CAI, each Securitization Entity formed by the Borrower, and the holders of other Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) upon the request of the Borrower with reasonable advance notice to the Administrative Agent and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, a collateral agency arrangement (including any agreements, certificates, documents and instruments relating thereto or to the transactions contemplated thereby) with a collateral agent or collateral trustee, the Borrower, each Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower that is a Guarantor, each Securitization Entity formed by the Borrower, the holders of other Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries (and holders of Liens in respect thereof) permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for the purposes of administering the Liens held by such collateral agent for the benefit of the various secured parties in the Collection Account and possession of original lease documents, such collateral agency arrangements and related documentation to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall cooperate in good faith with the Borrower in its efforts to coordinate the intercreditor and collateral agency arrangements described above.Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, Lenders comprising not less than the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority pursuant to this §14.15 to enter into and their approval of, the transactions contemplated by the first sentence of this §14.15 and any and all agreements, documents and instruments relating thereto.
 
Any intercreditor agreement and/or collateral agency agreement entered into pursuant to this §14.15 shall not (A) permit any pari passu lien on the Collateral, except with respect to funds in the Collection Account prior to allocation thereof to the applicable secured parties, or (B) release (except to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 14.13(a)) or subordinate (except to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 14.13(b)) the Lien of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in any Railcar or lease then subject to the Lien of the Security Documents.
 
14.16.    ERISA Representations.
 
Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(d)          such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
 
In addition, unless sub-clause (a) in the immediately preceding §14.13.1 is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (d) in the immediately preceding §14.13.1, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that:

114

(e)          no fee or other compensation is being paid directly to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, or any their respective Affiliates for investment advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement.
 
The Administrative Agent and the Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.
 
15.          ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.
 
15.1.       Conditions to Assignment.
 
15.1.1.  Successors and Assignment 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 any Guarantor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder 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 §15.1.2 (ii) with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (iii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of §15.1.4, or (iv) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of §15.1.5 and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void (except for assignment to a Disqualified Institution, but the provisions of §15.1.2(h) shall apply). 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 §15.1.4 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
 
15.1.2.   Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans (including for purposes of this §15.1.2, participations in Letters of Credit and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that
 
(a)          except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Revolving Credit Loans, outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit 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 Five Million Dollars ($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 or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;
 
115

(b)         each partial assignment of Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, participations in Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (b) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swing Line Loans of the Swing Line Lender;
 
(c)         any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (with Borrower’s consent not to be unreasonably withheld), unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself (a) (i) a Lender; (ii) an Affiliate of a Lender; or (iii) an Approved Fund and (b) not a competitor of the Borrower or Borrower’s Affiliates;
 
(d)         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 $3,500.00 (provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment), and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;
 
(e)        so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no such assignment shall be made to a Person who is not an Eligible Assignee without the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that the withholding of consent to an assignment (i) to a Disqualified Institution or (ii) which results in additional costs pursuant to §§5.6, 5.7 and 5.9 shall be deemed reasonable);
 
(f)          no such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Delinquent Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person;
 
(g)         in connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Delinquent Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Delinquent Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities under this Agreement then owed by such Delinquent Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, any Lender hereunder or the Borrower (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Delinquent Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Delinquent Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs; and
 
116

(h)          Disqualified Institutions.
 
(i)          No assignment shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the applicable Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment as otherwise contemplated by this §15.1.2, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), such assignee shall not retroactively be considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment in violation of this clause (h)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (h) shall apply.
 
(ii)          If any assignment is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s prior consent in violation of clause (i) above, the Borrower may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Commitment, (B) in the case of outstanding Loans held by Disqualified Institutions, prepay such Loan by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and/or (C) require such Disqualified Institution to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this §15.1.2), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement and related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and other the other Loan Documents; provided that (i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in §15.1.2(f), (ii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws and (iii) in the case of clause (B), the Borrower shall not use the proceeds from any Loans to prepay Loans held by Disqualified Institutions.
 
117

(iii)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws (a “Plan of Reorganization”), each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such Plan of Reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such Plan of Reorganization notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Plan of Reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
 
(i)          The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on the Platform, including that portion of the Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender requesting the same.
 
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to §15.1.3, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit 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 §§5.6, 5.7, 5.9, 16.2 and 16.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Revolving Credit 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 §15.1.2 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 §15.1.4.  The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Borrower with prompt notice of any assignment hereunder.
 
118

15.1.3.   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 and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Line Loan and participations in Letters of Credit 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 may 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrower, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register.
 
15.1.4.   Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any competitor of the Borrower) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Revolving Credit Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit 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, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
 
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 the first proviso to §16.12(a) that affects such Participant.  Subject to §15.1.5, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of §§5.6, 5.7 and 5.9, to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to §15.1.2.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of §16.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to §16.1 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 Credit 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.
 
119

15.1.5.  Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement (including under its Revolving Credit Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, the European Central Bank or any other central banking authority; 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.
 
15.1.6.  Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words "execute," "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Credit Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications, loan requests, Swing Line Loan Notices, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it.
 
15.1.7.  Resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender after Assignment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Union Bank assigns all of its Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to §15.1.2 above, Union Bank may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender.  In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Union Bank as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be.  If Union Bank resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to §4).  If Union Bank resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to §2.10.  Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Union Bank to effectively assume the obligations of Union Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of any exercise of any setoff pursuant to this Section 16.1.Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket documented expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), 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 the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket documented expenses incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket documented expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer), 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 §16.2, or (B) in connection with the Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit.  All amounts due under this §16.2 shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.  The agreements in this §16.2 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Total Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

No failure by any Lender, the L/C Issuer 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 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.

128

(a)          without the written consent of the Borrower and each Lender directly affected thereby:
 
(i)             reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or reduce the rate of interest on the Revolving Credit Notes or the amount of the Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fees (other than interest accruing pursuant to §5.10.2 following the effective date of any waiver by the Required Lenders of the Default or Event of Default relating thereto);
 
(ii)             increase the amount of such Lender’s Commitment or extend the expiration date of such Lender’s Commitment or reinstate any Commitment that has been terminated;
 
(iii)            postpone or extend the Maturity Date or any other regularly scheduled dates for payments of principal of, or interest on, the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Line Loans or Reimbursement Obligations or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (it being understood that (A) a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to §5.10.2, and (B) any vote to rescind any acceleration made pursuant to §13.1 of amounts owing with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans and other Obligations shall require only the approval of the Required Lenders);
 
(iv)          other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of this Credit Agreement, (a) release in one transaction or a series of related transactions all or substantially all of the Collateral (excluding if the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower becomes a debtor under the federal Bankruptcy Code, the release of “cash collateral”, as defined in Section 363(a) of the federal Bankruptcy Code pursuant to a cash collateral stipulation with the debtor approved by the Required Lenders) or (b) release CAI or any other Guarantor from their guaranty obligations under the Guaranty;
 
(b)          without the written consent of all of the Lenders, waive a Default or Event of Default under §13.1(a) or §13.1(b), amend or waive this §16.12 or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or the definition of Required Lenders or the definition of Supermajority Lenders, or change §§2.13, 13.4 or 16.1 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby;
 
(c)          without the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, amend the definition of Borrowing Base (or defined terms included therein) in such a manner so as to increase the amount of the Borrowing Base;
 
(d)          (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Credit Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Credit Agreement; no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (iii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto;
 
129

(e)          without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, waive any condition set forth in §§11 or 12 (other than the waiver of the condition precedent in §12 based on the absence of Default or Event of Default that pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement has been waived by the Required Lenders).
 
No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  No notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Delinquent Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Delinquent Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Delinquent Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Delinquent Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Delinquent Lender.
 
16.14.   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.
 
16.15.   No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each of the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
 
130

16.16.   Severability.  The provisions of this Credit Agreement are severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Credit Agreement in any jurisdiction.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and/or their Subsidiaries, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower or their Subsidiaries and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower, CAI and their respective Subsidiaries in accordance with the Act.  Each Borrower shall, promptly following any request therefor, provide information and documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for purposes of compliance with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money-laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
 
16.18.   Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.  Solely to the extent any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution is a party to this Agreement and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

17.           GUARANTY.
 
17.1.     Guaranty.  CAI hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Obligations of Borrower, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, arising hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Lenders in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof) (collectively but excluding any Excluded Swap Obligation, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon CAI, and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations.  This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of CAI under this Guaranty, and CAI hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing.
 
17.2.      Rights of Lenders.  CAI consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof:  (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CAI consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of CAI under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of CAI.
 
17.3.     Certain Waivers.  CAI waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Lender) of the liability of Borrower; (b) any defense based on any claim that CAI’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of Borrower; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting CAI’s liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Lender whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Lender; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties.  CAI expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.  CAI waives any rights and defenses that are or may become available to CAI by reason of §§2787 to 2855, inclusive, and §§2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code.  As provided below, the guaranty contained in this §17 shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York (excluding the laws applicable to conflicts or choice of law (other than the New York General Obligations Law §5-1401)).  The foregoing waivers and the provisions hereinafter set forth in this Guaranty which pertain to California law are included solely out of an abundance of caution, and shall not be construed to mean that any of the above-referenced provisions of California law are in any way applicable to this guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
133

17.4.     Obligations Independent.  The obligations of CAI hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against CAI to enforce this Guaranty whether or not Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.
 
17.5.      Subrogation.  CAI shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and performed in full and the Commitments are terminated.  If any amounts are paid to CAI in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Lenders to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
 
17.6.     Termination; Reinstatement.  This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Commitments with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or CAI is made, or any of the Lenders exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations 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 any of the Lenders in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Lenders are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction.  The obligations of CAI under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement and/or this Guaranty.
 
17.7.     Subordination.  CAI hereby subordinates to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to CAI, whether now existing or hereafter arising, excluding the Excluded Intercompany Obligations, but including but not limited to any obligation of the Borrower to CAI as subrogee of the Lenders or resulting from CAI’s performance under this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the subordination pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Borrower may continue to make payments to CAI in the ordinary course of business, unless:  (i) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower in writing that payments of the Borrower’s obligations that have been subordinated pursuant to this §17 should lapse until such Default or Event of Default has been cured.
 
17.8.     Stay of Acceleration.  If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against CAI or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by CAI immediately upon demand by the Lenders.
 
17.9.     Condition of Borrower.  CAI acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from the Borrower and any other guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other guarantor as CAI requires, and that none of the Lenders has any duty, and CAI is not relying on the Lenders at any time, to disclose to CAI any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any other guarantor (CAI waiving any duty on the part of the Lenders to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same).
 
134

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, in order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to make any loans or otherwise extend credit to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement and to guaranty the Borrower’s Obligations under or in respect of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each of the Guarantors agrees with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties as follows:

1.          Definitions.  The term “Obligations” as used in this Guaranty shall mean the “Obligations” (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).  All other capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Loan Agreement.

2.          Guaranty of Payment and Performance.  Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent the full and punctual payment in cash when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise), as well as the performance, of all of the Obligations including all such which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay pursuant to §362(a) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code and the operation of §§502(b) and 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States of America. This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual payment and performance of all of the Obligations and not of their collectability only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party first attempt to collect any of the Obligations from the Borrower or resort to any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment. Should the Borrower default in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, the joint and several obligations of the Guarantors hereunder with respect to such Obligations in default shall, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, become immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, without demand or notice of any nature, all of which are expressly waived by each of the Guarantors.  Payments by the Guarantors hereunder may be required by the Administrative Agent on any number of occasions. All payments by the Guarantors hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars, in the manner and at the place of payment specified therefor in the Loan Agreement, for the account of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent.

- 1 -

3.         Guarantors’ Agreement to Pay Enforcement Costs, etc..  Each of the Guarantors further agrees, as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, all reasonable costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or expended by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in connection with the Obligations, this Guaranty and the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this §3 from the time when such amounts become due until payment, whether before or after judgment, at the rate of interest for overdue principal set forth in the Loan Agreement, provided that if such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable law, then such interest shall be reduced to such maximum permitted amount.

4.        Waivers by the Guarantors; Secured Parties’ Freedom to Act.  Each of the Guarantors agrees that the Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with their respective terms, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party with respect thereto. Each of the Guarantors waives promptness, diligences, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Borrower or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Guarantors agrees to the provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Obligations and agrees that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations; (ii) any extensions, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any of the Obligations; (iii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Obligations or any rescissions, waivers, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or other amendments or modifications of any of the terms or provisions of the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Obligations; (iv) the addition, substitution or release of any entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Obligations; (vi) the impairment of any collateral securing any of the Obligations, including without limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party might have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security; or (vii) any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of any of the Guarantors, all of which may be done without notice to any of the Guarantors. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any “one action” or “anti-deficiency” law which would otherwise prevent the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party from bringing any action, including any claim for a deficiency, or exercising any other right or remedy (including any right of set-off), against the Guarantors before or after the Administrative Agent’s commencement or completion of any foreclosure action, whether judicially, by exercise of power of sale or otherwise, or (B) any other law which in any other way would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Administrative Agent.

- 2 -

5.          Unenforceability of Obligations Against Borrower.  If for any reason the Borrower has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from the Borrower by reason of the Borrower’s insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any other reason, this Guaranty shall nevertheless be binding on each of the Guarantors to the same extent as if the Guarantors at all times had been the principal obligor on all such Obligations. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, or for any other reason, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Obligation shall be immediately due and payable by the Guarantors.

6.           Subrogation; Subordination.

6.1.       Waiver of Rights Against Borrower.  Until the final payment in cash and performance in full of all of the Obligations, none of the Guarantors shall exercise and hereby waives any rights against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result of payment by such Guarantor hereunder, by way of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in competition with the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in respect of any payment hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceedings of any nature; none of the Guarantors will claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of any liability of such Guarantor to the Borrower or such other Guarantor; and each of the Guarantors waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party.

6.2.       Subordination. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor for money borrowed or credit received now or hereafter owed to any of the Guarantors is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Obligations, excluding the Excluded Intercompany Obligations, but including any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor to a Guarantor as subrogee of the Lenders or resulting from a Guarantor’s performance under this Guaranty.  Notwithstanding the subordination pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Borrower or any Guarantor may continue to make payments to a Guarantor in the ordinary course of business, unless:  (i) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) Administrative Agent shall have notified such Guarantor in writing that payments of Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s obligations that have been subordinated pursuant to this Section should lapse until such Default or Event of Default has been cured.
- 3 -


6.3.        Provisions Supplemental. The provisions of this §6 shall be supplemental to and not in derogation of any rights and remedies of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent under any separate subordination agreement which the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time enter into with any of the Guarantors for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent.

7.          Setoff.  Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, each of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors (any such notice being expressly waived by the Guarantors) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and all other sums credited by or due from the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or any affiliates thereof to any Guarantor or subject to withdrawal by any Guarantor against the joint and several obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured.

8.          Further Assurances.  Each of the Guarantors agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of the Administrative Agent, do all such things and execute all such documents as the Administrative Agent may consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this Guaranty and to perfect and preserve the rights and powers of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent hereunder. Each of the Guarantors acknowledges and confirms that such Guarantor itself has established its own adequate means of obtaining from the Borrower on a continuing basis all information desired by such Guarantor concerning the financial condition of the Borrower and that such Guarantor will look to the Borrower and not to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in order for such Guarantor to keep adequately informed of changes in the Borrower’s financial condition.

9.         Termination; Reinstatement.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full in cash and performance of all of the Obligations.  This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated as to any such Guarantor, notwithstanding any such notice, if at any time any payment made or value received with respect to any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made or value received. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, release of any Guarantor in accordance with the terms hereof shall not impair or otherwise affect any rights of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder with respect to any other Guarantor, nor shall it affect the joint and several obligations of such other Guarantors hereunder.

- 4 -

10.         Successors and Assigns.  This Guaranty shall be binding upon each of the Guarantors, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, each Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer its rights under the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other entity or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party herein, all in accordance with § 15 of the Loan Agreement. None of the Guarantors may assign any of its obligations hereunder.

11.         Amendments and Waivers.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by any of the Guarantors therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

12.        Notices.  All notices and other communications called for hereunder shall be made in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly made or given when delivered by hand or mailed first class, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telegraphic or telexed notice, when transmitted, answer back received, addressed as follows: if to any of the Guarantors, at the address set forth beneath its signature hereto, and if to the Administrative Agent, at the address for notices to the Administrative Agent set forth in § 16.6 of the Loan Agreement, or at such address as either party may designate in writing to the other.

13.         Governing Law; Consent to JurisdictionTHIS GUARANTY IS A CONTRACT UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SAID STATE (EXCLUDING THE LAWS APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW (OTHER THAN THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW §5-1401)). Each of the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent agrees that any suit for the enforcement of this Guaranty may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or any federal court sitting therein and consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such court and to service of process in any such suit being made upon such Guarantor by mail at the address specified by reference in § 12. Each of the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent hereby waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit was brought in an inconvenient court.

14.        Waiver of Jury TrialEACH OF THE GUARANTORS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any right which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. Each of the Guarantors (i) certifies that neither the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party is a party, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this §14.

- 5 -

15.         Withholding Taxes.  Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that:

(a)          All payments by such Guarantor hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without recoupment, setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless such Guarantor is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding.  If any such obligation is imposed upon any Guarantor with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, such Guarantor will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon such Guarantor. The Loan Parties will deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by each Guarantor hereunder or under such other Loan Document.  Each Lender claiming any additional amounts payable under this §15 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to execute and deliver all such documents and instruments as any Guarantor shall reasonably request or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the execution of such documents or the making of such a change would avoid the need for or substantially reduce the amount of additional amounts which would thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole and absolute determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender, which determination by such Lender shall be conclusive. Each Guarantor shall not be liable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (such person a "Recipient") for (i) taxes that are based upon or measured by such Recipient's (or a branch’s (in the case of a branch of such Recipient)) net income or net profit (including franchise Taxes imposed in lieu of such Taxes) or for any withholdings required to be made pursuant to applicable law that are credited against taxes based on such Recipient's net income or net profit, (ii) taxes imposed as a result of a present or former connection between such Recipient and the jurisdiction imposing such taxes other than connections arising from such Recipient having executed this Agreement and having enforced or enjoyed its rights and performed its obligations under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (iii) in the case of a Lender, U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Lender with respect to an applicable interest in a Loan or Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (A) such Lender acquires such interest in the Loan or Commitment or (B) such Lender changes its lending office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to this §15, amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable either to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending office, (iv) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA and (v) taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to provide the documentation required by Section 5.2.3 of the Loan Agreement.

(b)        Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the parties hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each of the Guarantors contained in this § 15 shall survive the payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

- 6 -

16.         Miscellaneous.  This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the Guarantors with respect to the matters set forth herein. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and this Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the Obligations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more sections of this Guaranty shall not affect the validity or enforceability of its remaining provisions. Captions are for the ease of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of the relevant provisions. The meanings of all defined terms used in this Guaranty shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one instrument. In making proof of this Guaranty it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one counterpart signed by each party hereto by and against which enforcement hereof is sought. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Guaranty by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

17.        Joinder.  At such time following the date hereof as any Domestic Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity) is required to join this Guaranty pursuant to the terms of §8.14 of the Loan Agreement, such Domestic Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a joinder agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A signifying its agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Guaranty as a Guarantor to the same extent as if such Domestic Subsidiary had originally executed this Guaranty as of the date hereof.
