(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03 (i) to the extent that any person or entity listed on Schedule 1.03 which the Borrower does not currently consolidate in accordance with GAAP is required to be consolidated with the Borrower for any reason other than its direct or indirect majority equity ownership, such person or entity shall be deconsolidated for purposes of calculating compliance with the financial covenants in Section 9.10 and (ii) any lease that was accounted for by any Person as an operating lease as of the Credit Agreement Closing Date and any similar lease entered into after the Credit Agreement Closing Date may, in the sole discretion of Borrower, be accounted for as an operating lease and not as a Capital Lease, notwithstanding any change in GAAP occurring after the Credit Agreement Closing Date.

Section 1.04. Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

Section 1.05. References to Agreements and Laws. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (a) references to Organization Documents, agreements (including the Loan Documents) and other contractual instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, restatements, extensions, supplements and other modifications thereto, but only to the extent that such amendments, restatements, extensions, supplements and other modifications are not prohibited by any Loan Document; and (b) references to any Law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting such Law.

Section 1.06. Times of Day; Rates.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

(b) The Lender does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Lender have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any rate that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including, without limitation, any Benchmark Replacement) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

Section 1.07. Reserved.

Section 1.08. Certain Calculations and Tests.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.08; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsections (b) or (c) of this Section 1.08 when calculating the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as applicable, for purposes of determining actual compliance (and not pro forma compliance or compliance on a Pro Forma Basis) with any financial covenant pursuant to Section 9.10, the events described in this Section 1.08 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect (but, for the avoidance of doubt, such events as took place on or after the first day of the applicable Test Period but on or prior to the end of the applicable Test Period shall be given pro forma effect).

(b) For purposes of calculating the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If, since the beginning of any applicable Test Period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.08, then the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.08.

(c) In the event that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, prepayment, retirement, exchange, extinguishment or satisfaction and discharge) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as the case may be (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any Revolving Indebtedness), (i) during the applicable Test Period and/or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on (A) the last day of the applicable Test Period in the case of the Total Leverage Ratio and the Senior

Secured Leverage Ratio and (B) the first day of the applicable Test Period in the case of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any hedging obligations applicable to such Indebtedness); provided that, in the case of repayment of any Indebtedness, to the extent actual interest related thereto was included during all or any portion of the applicable Test Period, the actual interest may be used for the applicable portion of such Test Period. Interest on a Capital Lease shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a London interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless the Borrower otherwise notifies the Lender, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence; provided that this subsection (d) shall apply solely with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 9.03(f) and shall not apply to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on any provision of Article IX (other than Section 9.03(f)).

Section 1.09. Limited Condition Transactions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when determining compliance with any applicable conditions to the consummation of any Limited Condition Transaction (including, without limitation, any Default or Event of Default condition), the date of determination of such applicable conditions shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”). If on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) such applicable conditions are calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction and other related transactions had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which financial statements are available to the Lender, the Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with the applicable conditions thereto, such applicable conditions shall be deemed to have been complied with, unless an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.01(a), (f) or (g) shall be continuing on the date such Limited Condition Transaction is actually consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, if an LCT Election is made, the

applicable conditions thereto shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated both (x) on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other related transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (y) on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other related transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated, and the applicable action shall only be permitted if there is sufficient availability under the applicable ratio or basket under both of the calculations pursuant to subsection (x) and (y).

ARTICLE II

THE LOAN

Section 2.01. Main Street Priority Loan Facility.

(a) Reference is made to the MSPLF, which has been authorized under section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act. Under the MSPLF, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, acting under the direction of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, has committed to lend to the SPV, on a recourse basis, and in connection therewith, on and subject to the occurrence of the Funding Date, the SPV will purchase a ninety-five percent (95%) participation in the Note.

(b) To participate in the MSPLF, the Borrower must provide the certifications and covenants set forth in the Borrower Certification, and comply with all terms and conditions of the MSPLF.

Section 2.02. The Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender agrees to make the Loan to the Borrower on the Funding Date in an aggregate amount equal to $50,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be requested by the Borrower). Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.02 and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Interest on the Loan shall accrue as set forth in Section 2.08.

(a) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Lender, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loan in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) the Borrower shall notify the Lender of such prepayment and such notice is received by the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment; and (ii) any partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the conditions (which may only relate to the incurrence of Indebtedness or the receipt of proceeds of a Disposition or capital contribution by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries), if any, to 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, subject to satisfaction or waiver of any conditions specified in such notice (which conditions may only relate to the incurrence of Indebtedness or the receipt of proceeds of a Disposition or capital contribution by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries). Any prepayment shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

(b) All voluntary prepayments of the Loan shall be applied to the remaining scheduled principal payments in direct order of maturity (or as otherwise directed by the Borrower

(c) If, on any date (such date, a “Trigger Date”), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or a designee thereof has, after consultation with the Lender, notified the Lender in writing that the Borrower has materially breached, made a material misrepresentation with respect to or otherwise failed to comply with certifications in Section 2 (CARES Act Borrower Eligibility Certifications and Covenants) or Section 3 (Federal Reserve Act and Regulation A Borrower Eligibility Certifications) of the Borrower Certification in any material respect or that any such certification has failed to be true and correct in any material respect, then the Lender shall promptly so notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall, no later than two (2) Business Days after such Trigger Date, prepay the Loan in full, along with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

Section 2.06. Termination of Commitments. Prior to the Funding Date, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Lender, terminate the Lender’s commitment to make the Loan. Upon funding of the Loan on the Funding Date, the Lender’s commitment shall be automatically terminated.

Section 2.07. Repayment of Loans. Borrower shall repay (i) fifteen percent (15%) of the principal amount of the Loan on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) fifteen percent (15%) of the principal amount of the Loan on the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (iii) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Loan on the Maturity Date.

Section 2.08. Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, the Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate plus 3.00%. The Eurodollar Rate shall be reset on each Interest Payment Date.

(b) (i) If any amount of principal of the Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of the Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

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

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

(d) Interest payable on any Interest Payment Date occurring on or prior to the fourth Interest Payment Date shall be paid by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Loan on such Interest Payment Date by the amount of interest due on such Interest Payment Date (such interest, “PIK Interest”) rather than in cash; provided, Borrower may elect, by giving advance written notice thereof in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to such Interest Payment Date (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may agree), to pay all or a portion of such PIK Interest in cash on such Interest Payment Date in the amounts specified in such notice (in which case any such amounts paid in cash will not increase the principal amount of the Loan on such Interest Payment Date).

Section 2.09. MSPLF Fees. On the Funding Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the SPV a transaction fee in the amount of 1.0% of the principal amount of the Loan funded on the Funding Date (the “Transaction Fee”), and (ii) the Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Lender an origination fee in the amount of 1.0% of the principal amount of the Loan funded on the Funding Date. The foregoing fees shall be deducted from the Loan proceeds at closing and the Lender shall pay the Transaction Fee to the SPV on behalf of the Borrower.

Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on

the Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on the Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.11. Evidence of Debt. The Loan made by the Lender shall be evidenced by the Note and one or more accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by the Lender 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.

Section 2.12. Payments Generally.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Lender, at the Lender’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. All payments received by the Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 3.01. Taxes.

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

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Loan Party, or any other applicable withholding agent, then such Loan Party, or such withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding.

(ii) If any Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by any applicable Laws to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including, but not limited to, United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes,

from any payment, then (A) such Loan Party or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are reasonably determined by such Loan Party or such withholding agent to be required, (B) such Loan Party or other applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

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

(c) Indemnification. The Borrower shall, and does hereby indemnify the Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender, and any 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 delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Lender 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 Lender.

(e) Status of Lender; Tax Documentation.

(i) If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup

withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(d)(ii)(A) and (ii)(B) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

(B) if a payment made to the Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the 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), the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Lender has complied with the Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this subsection (B), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party 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 pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties,

interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, the Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document

(h) Interpretation. For purposes of this Section 3.01, for the avoidance of doubt, the term “Laws” includes FATCA.

Section 3.02. Illegality. If the Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain, issue or fund the Loan, then, on notice thereof to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to the Loan shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice and written demand by the Lender, the Loan shall be prepaid by the Borrower or, if the Lender shall be permitted to maintain the Loan at the Base Rate, the Loan shall instead be converted to bear interest at the Base Rate, beginning either on the next Interest Payment Date, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain the Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain the Loan, in each case until the Lender revokes such notice or demand. Upon any such change to the Base Rate, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the Loan. The Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of the Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to the Lender.

Section 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Lender determines (i) that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate with respect to a the Loan (in each case with respect to this subsection (i), “Impacted Loans”), or (ii) that the Eurodollar Rate with respect to the Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of maintaining the Loan, the Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Lender has made the determination described in subsection (i) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03, the Lender, in consultation with the Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Lender revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under subsection (i) of the first sentence of this section 3.03, (2) the Lender notifies the Borrower that such alternative interest rate

does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of maintaining the Impacted Loans, or (3) the Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to maintain loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Borrower written notice thereof.

Section 3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on the Loan.

(a) Changes in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than, in each case, (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in subsections (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

(iii) impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or the Loan made;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of maintaining the Loan, or to increase the cost to the Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

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

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

(e) Reserves on the Loan. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, as long as the 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 the Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to the Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on the Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice of such additional interest from the Lender. If the Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 30 days from receipt of such notice.

Section 3.05. Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of the Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate the Lender for and hold the Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any payment or prepayment of the Loan (other than any Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate) on a day other than an Interest Payment Date (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(b) any failure by the Borrower to prepay or borrow the Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower

including any loss of anticipated profits solely attributable to a decline in the Eurodollar Rate after the date the Loan was made and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain the Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lender under this Section 3.05, the Lender shall be deemed to have funded the Loan at the Eurodollar Rate 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 the Loan was in fact so funded. The Lender shall if making a claim for compensation for losses pursuant to this Section 3.05, make such claim within 30 days after the Lender first becomes aware of the loss, cost or expense incurred by it.

Section 3.06. Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. A certificate of the Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any and all claims for compensation under this Article III (other than Sections 3.01 and 3.05) shall be made by the Lender within 180 days after the Lender becomes aware of the facts or circumstances giving rise to such claim. The Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any request for compensation under this Article III and take any other action available to reduce or mitigate such costs in each case if such action will not, in the good faith judgment of the Lender, be materially disadvantageous to the Lender.

Section 3.07. Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive payment in full of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 3.08. Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (for the purposes of this Section, a Swap Agreement is not a Loan Document) , upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Lender may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Lender has provided such amendment to the Borrower without any further action or consent of the Borrower unless the Lender has received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election) from the Borrower, in which case such amendment shall not take effect absent further agreement of Borrower and Lender. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with a Benchmark Replacement, the Lender will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of the Borrower.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Lender pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take

or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in the Lender’s sole discretion and without consent from the Borrower, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

(d) Benchmark Unavailability Period. For any determination of interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document during a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the principal amount of this loan subject to the Benchmark shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus 2.00%, computed as otherwise described herein. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

(b) exercise all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or applicable law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law, the unpaid principal amount of the Loan and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, without further act of the Lender.

103

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender agrees that with respect to any deposit account or securities account maintained by or on behalf of any Tribal Entity it shall not deliver a notice of control, notice of exclusive control, shifting control notice, activation notice, or any similar notice under, or give any instructions or entitlement orders as to the disposition of any property subject to, an Account Control Agreement or any other deposit account control agreement or securities account control agreement entered into in respect of such account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER POSSIBLE CONSTRUCTION OF ANY PROVISION(S) CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, IT IS AGREED THAT WITHIN THE MEANING OF IGRA: (A) THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY, DO NOT AND SHALL NOT PROVIDE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE MOHEGAN SUN GAMING OPERATIONS BY ANY PERSON OTHER THAN THE TRIBE OR THE BORROWER, OR DEPRIVE THE TRIBE OR THE BORROWER OF THE SOLE PROPRIETARY INTEREST AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONDUCT OF THE MOHEGAN SUN GAMING OPERATIONS; AND (B) NEITHER THE LENDER NOR ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGN OR AGENT OF LENDER WILL OR MAY EXERCISE ANY REMEDY OR OTHERWISE TAKE ANY ACTION UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS IN A MANNER THAT WOULD CONSTITUTE MANAGEMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE MOHEGAN SUN GAMING OPERATIONS OR THAT WOULD DEPRIVE THE TRIBE OR THE BORROWER OF THE SOLE PROPRIETARY INTEREST AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONDUCT OF THE MOHEGAN SUN GAMING OPERATIONS.

Section 10.03. Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 10.02 (or after the Loan has automatically become immediately due and payable) and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the Lender in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts other than principal and interest (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Lender;

Second, to payment of the remaining Obligations; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Section 10.04. Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 10.01 or 10.02, if Borrower determines that an Event of Default under the covenant set forth in Section 9.19(a) has occurred or may occur, on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date on which the certificate required to be delivered hereunder pursuant to Section 8.02(i)(i) with respect to such calendar month (the “Cure Expiration Date”), a Specified Tribal Contribution

104

may be made, and the amount of the net cash proceeds thereof shall be deemed to increase Liquidity as of the last day of such calendar month provided that such net cash proceeds are actually received by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries on or prior to the Cure Expiration Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01 and Section 10.02, (A) upon any Specified Tribal Contribution in an amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under the covenant set forth in Section 9.19(a), such covenant will be deemed satisfied and complied with as of the end of the relevant calendar month with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply with such covenant and any Event of Default under such covenant (and any other Default as a result thereof) will be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of the Loan Documents, and (B) from and after the date that Borrower delivers a written notice to the Lender that it intends to exercise its cure right under this Section 10.04 (a “Notice of Intent to Cure”) the Lender may not exercise any rights or remedies under Section 10.02 (or under any other Loan Document) on the basis of any actual or purported Event of Default under the covenant set forth in Section 9.19(a) with respect to the calendar month for which a Notice of Intent to Cure has been provided (and any other Default as a result thereof) until the Cure Expiration Date.

Section 12.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Lender to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Section 12.04. Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all applicable Attorney Costs, (b) to pay or reimburse the Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all applicable Attorney Costs, and (c) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to pay or reimburse each Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, including all Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lender and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Lender. All amounts due under this Section 12.04 shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of the Loan and repayment of all other Obligations.

Section 12.05. Indemnification by the Borrower; Waiver. The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender and each Related Party of the Lender (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any outside counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation

107

of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of the Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors or Affiliates, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement by more than one Indemnitee, all such Indemnitees shall be represented by the same legal counsel selected by the Indemnitees; provided that if such legal counsel determines in good faith that representing all such Indemnitees is reasonably likely to result in a conflict of interest under Laws or ethical principles applicable to such legal counsel or that a defense or counterclaim is available to an Indemnitee that is not available to all such Indemnitees, then to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid such a conflict of interest or to permit unqualified assertion of such a defense or counterclaim, each Indemnitee shall be entitled to separate representation.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

All amounts due under this Section 12.05 shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations. This Section 12.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

108

Section 12.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Lender, or the Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred.

Section 12.07. Successors and Assigns.

(a) 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 the Tribe and the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender and the Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void ab initio). 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 subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) The Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loans (i) to the SPV, (ii) as required by law, or (iii) as required by the MSPLF; provided that assignments other than those set forth in clauses (i)-(iii) above shall be subject to the following conditions:

(iii) Borrower Consent Required for Assignments to Entities Not Constituting Chartered Banks. Subject to the MSPLF, no assignment shall be made by Lender to an entity that is not a chartered bank without the prior consent of Borrower.

(iv) Multiple Lenders. Subject to the MSPLF and the provisions of the Co-Lender Agreement, upon an assignment by the Lender, while it is the sole Lender hereunder, of a portion (but not all), of its rights and obligations under this

Agreement and the Loan, the Lender and the Borrower, upon reasonable advance notice by the Lender to the Borrower, shall amend this Agreement to include provisions customary of multi-lender facilities (it being understood and agreed that the Lender and the Borrower shall cooperate in good faith to implement such an amendment on terms reasonably acceptable to such Lender and the Borrower as promptly as reasonably practicable).

From and after the effective date specified in any assignment, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of the Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 12.04 and 12.05 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 Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by the Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.07(d).

(c) Liberty Bank, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the name and address of the Lender and any assignees thereof, and the principal amount and stated interest of the Loan owing to the Lender and such assignees pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. No assignment of the Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, will be effective without being recorded in the Register.

(d) The Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement; provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which the Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the 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 the Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification that (i) reduces the fees, interest rate or principal payable directly or indirectly to such Participant (or the Lender in respect of such Participant), or (ii) extends the final maturity date for the Loan. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements of Section 3.01(e))

110

to the same extent as if it were the Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided, however, that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 12.16 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.09 as though it were the Lender.

Upon the sale of a participation, the Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary 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 Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall not 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 the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were the Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01.

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

Section 12.08. Confidentiality. The Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective auditors, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives that need to know such information (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under

111

this Agreement, (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 12.07(f), or (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. In addition, the Lender may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Tribe, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the Tribe, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure to any such Person by the Tribe, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 12.09. Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lender provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or indebtedness. The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 12.10. 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 (other than Tribal Laws) (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loan or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the 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.

112

Section 12.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 12.12. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Lender in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 12.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of the Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

Section 12.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid, void or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid, void or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid, void or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.15. [Reserved].

Section 12.16. [Reserved].

Section 12.17. Governing Law. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided therein, each Loan Document shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Law of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of New York (other than any mandatory provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York relating to the Law governing perfection and the effect of perfection of the security interests granted under the Loan Documents), provided however, that if and only to the extent that any security interest granted to the Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed exempt from the provisions of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York by virtue of Borrower being a governmental entity, then such security interest shall be governed by the corresponding provisions of Article 9 of the Tribe’s Uniform Commercial Code,

113

as adopted by the UCC Ordinance. Borrower and each other party hereto each hereby consents to the application of New York civil law to the construction, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to the application of New York civil law to the procedural aspects of any suit, action or proceeding relating thereto, including but not limited to legal process, execution of judgments and other legal remedies, except for any procedural matters governed by or relating to the conduct of arbitration under Section 12.18.

Subject to clause (c) below, at the option of the Lender, the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are Tribal Entities or, to the extent it is a party to any such controversy or claim, the Tribe, any controversy or claim between or among the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreements or instruments relating hereto or thereto or delivered in connection herewith or therewith and any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort in connection herewith or therewith (each, a “Claim”), shall be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrators shall give effect to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrators. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction and each of the Tribe, the Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in any jurisdiction in which are located assets against which such judgment is sought to be enforced. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(b) Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this Section shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to foreclose against or sell any real or personal property collateral or security or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of any party to resort to arbitration or reference. At the Lender’s option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.

(i) [Reserved].

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Loan Document, a Claim may only be submitted to or otherwise determined by

114

arbitration pursuant to clause (a) or otherwise if, and only if, each of the courts described in Section 12.20(c)(i) and 12.20(c)(ii) lack or decline jurisdiction with respect to such Claim.

(d) Specific Enforcement Representation. Each party to this Agreement severally represents and warrants to the other parties that this Section 12.18 is specifically enforceable against such party by the other parties.

(d) Each of the Tribe, Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any court described in clause (c) above.
