CONTINUING LETTER OF CREDIT AGREEMENT(UNCOMMITTED)

In consideration of BNP PARIBAS (the “Bank”), in its sole and absolute discretion, issuing letters of credit (each a “Credit” and collectively the “Credits”) from time to time under this Continuing Letter of Credit Agreement (this “Agreement”) at the request, and for the account, of the undersigned ("Account Party”), and in consideration of the Bank’s issuing Credits on behalf of the Account Party’s subsidiaries (it being understood that though said subsidiary will be named as the account party on the Credit, it is not the account party for purposes of this Agreement), the Account Party hereby agrees with the Bank as follows:

(2)    With respect to each Credit, the Account Party shall pay to the Bank at the time of issuance of such Credit a fee in an amount equal to (1) 1.5% of the face amount of such Credit if such Credit is a performance letter of credit and (2) an amount to be agreed by both parties at the time of issuance of such Credit if such Credit is a financial letter of credit. With respect to all Credits, the Account Party shall also pay upon demand all other customary administrative charges and amendment fees that may be charged by the Bank.

(3)    The amount of any payments made by the Bank with respect to drafts drawn, or demands made under any Credit and not so reimbursed by the Account Party in accordance with Section (1) hereof or the amount of any fee or other amount not paid when due (including, without limitation, cash collateral not posted when demanded hereunder), shall in each case, be payable by the Account Party promptly on demand, together with accrued interest thereon, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR plus 2.00%. The term “LIBOR” means the rate per annum as determined by the Bank, such determination to be conclusive and binding (adjusted upward to the nearest 1/16th of one per cent) at which deposits in United States Dollars (“Dollars”) with respect to any Credit are offered to the Bank in the London, England, interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M. (New York time) two Business Days prior to the beginning of each Interest Period in an amount comparable to the face amount of the relevant Credit and for a period of time comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, further, that LIBOR shall be adjusted for reserves, if applicable, in the manner typically adjusted by the Bank for loan facilities with interest rates available based on LIBOR. The term “Interest Period” means the period commencing on the date of disbursement by the Bank and ending on the date three months thereafter; provided that (i) any Interest Period that would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day; (ii) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period; and (iii) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the expiration date of the relevant Credit. The term “Business Day” means (i) any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day which is a legal holiday under the laws of the State of New York or is a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required to close under the laws of the State of New York and (ii) any day that is a Business Day described in the immediately preceding clause (i) and that is also a day for trading by and between banks in Dollar deposits in the London, England interbank market. Any change in the interest rate provided for herein based on a change in LIBOR shall take effect on the date of the change in LIBOR. In no event shall interest payable hereunder be in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Upon request of the Bank, the Account Party shall execute and deliver to the Bank a promissory note evidencing the obligation of the Account Party to pay to the Bank the amounts described herein, which note shall be payable on demand and shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Bank.

(4)    (a) The Account Party hereby agrees that if the Bank shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule, regulation or treaty, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof, by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive of any monetary, fiscal or other authority (whether or not having the force of law) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or insurance fee or similar requirement (including any such requirement imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency of the United States of America or the Federal Reserve Board (or any successor agency)) (other than those for which LIBOR is adjusted in accordance with this Agreement) against assets of,

deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Bank or shall subject the Bank to any Taxes (as defined below) with respect to any Credit or this Agreement or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank or any amount payable hereunder or in respect of any Credit (in either case, other than Excluded Taxes, as defined below), or shall impose on the Bank any other condition affecting any Credit, this Agreement or any amount due hereunder and as a result of any of the foregoing there shall be any increase in the cost to the Bank with respect to the issuance of any Credit or the making, funding or maintaining any Credit or any amount due thereunder or in the amount of any payment in respect of any Credit received or receivable by the Bank or the Bank shall forego any interest or other amount due hereunder, or in respect of any Credit, the Account Party shall promptly pay to the Bank from time to time upon the Bank’s written demand (and such demand shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Account Party), such additional amount or amounts as the Bank determines to be necessary to compensate the Bank for any increased cost, reduced amount, other loss or damage or foregone interest or other amount.

(b) The Account Party further agrees that if the Bank shall have determined that the adoption or implementation after the date of this Agreement of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, capital maintenance or similar requirement or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank with any request, guideline, policy or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or comparable entity or any governmental authority does or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank or on the Bank’s controlling corporation’s capital as a consequence of any Credit issued hereunder or any amount due in respect hereof to a level below that which the Bank or the Bank’s controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, implementation, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Bank’s and its controlling corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, upon the Bank’s written demand (and such demand shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Account Party), the Account Party shall promptly pay to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its controlling corporation for such reduction.

(c) Each payment by the Account Party under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, assessments, fees or other similar charges with respect thereto, of any nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof, including any interest, additions to taxes or penalties applicable thereto (“Taxes”) unless required by applicable law. If any Taxes other than Excluded Taxes are imposed and required by law to be paid or withheld from any amount payable to the Bank hereunder, then the Account Party shall increase the amount of such payment so that the Bank will receive a net amount (after deduction for such Taxes) equal to the amount due hereunder. For the purposes of this Section 4, “Excluded Taxes” means, (i) any Tax imposed on or measured by net income or overall gross income of the Bank, and any franchise, branch profit, capital and similar Taxes, in each case, imposed pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Bank is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of the Bank is located or any subdivision thereof or therein, (ii) any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, (iii) any withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of the Bank pursuant to a law in effect on the date that the Bank changes its applicable issuing office except to the extent amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable to the Bank before it changed its lending office and (iv) Taxes attributable to the Bank’s failure to provide such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Account Party as may be prescribed by applicable law for purposes of allowing payments to be made with an exemption or at a reduced rate of Tax; provided that the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution and submission would subject the Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the Bank’s legal or commercial position (for the avoidance of doubt, however, the foregoing proviso shall not apply to the delivery of IRS Forms W-8BEN or other versions of Form W-8 or applicable successor forms).

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or any regulatory authority, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “change in law/regulation” for purposes of this Section 4, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(e) Each of the Bank and the Account Party shall deliver to each other such documentation as is prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code (as herein defined)), and such additional documentation as may be reasonably requested by the other party, in order to comply with its obligations under FATCA (as herein defined) and to demonstrate that no withholding or deduction under FATCA need be made from any payment made by the Account Party to the Bank or from the Bank to, or for the account of, the Account Party or, in the absence of such demonstration, in order to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment(s) under FATCA. For purposes hereof, “FATCA” means Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as of the date of this Agreement (or any amended or successor version that is substantially comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, intergovernmental

agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code and any law, regulation or practice adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement. For purposes hereof, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(d)No consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority, domestic or foreign, is required to be obtained by it in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or the issuance of, or amendment to, any Credit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Account Party will not be obligated to reimburse or otherwise indemnify any Indemnified Person for any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs or expenses incurred or suffered as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(10)    No delay by the Bank in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right preclude other or further exercises thereof or the exercise of any other right. No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be enforceable against the Bank unless in writing and signed by an officer of the Bank, and unless it expressly refers to the provision affected and any such waiver shall be limited solely to the specific event waived. All rights granted the Bank hereunder shall be cumulative and be supplementary of and in addition to those granted or available to the Bank under any other agreement or instrument executed by the Account Party in favor of the Bank and under applicable law and nothing herein shall be construed as limiting any such other right.

documents, or any other modification of the terms of any Credit, this Agreement, and the Bank’s rights hereunder, shall continue unimpaired and shall be binding upon the Account Party with respect to any Credit so increased or otherwise modified and with respect to any action taken by the Bank or any of its correspondents in accordance with such extension, increase or other modification.

(18)    The Bank hereby notifies the Account Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Account Party, which information includes the name and address of the Account Party and other information that will allow the Bank to identify the Account Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. The Account Party agrees to promptly provide all information reasonably requested by the Bank to permit the Bank to comply with its obligations under the PATRIOT Act.

(19)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each and every amount which may become due and payable to the Bank hereunder may, in the Bank’s discretion, be charged by the Bank to any available funds then held by the Bank or any of its branches, agencies, subsidiaries or affiliates for the Account Party’s account (including, without limitation, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys).
