If Lender does not receive an effective Notice of Borrowing or Conversion with respect to an outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan in whole into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect to the LIBOR Rate Loan in question. If the written confirmation of any telephonic notification differs in any material respect from Lender’s record of the telephonic notification, the records of Lender shall control, absent manifest error. Borrower agrees that Lender shall have no obligation to verify the identity of any person making any request pursuant to this section, and Borrower assumes all risks of the validity and authorization of such requests. If Borrower and Lender enter into any cash management, treasury management or other agreement that provides that the payment of checks and other items drawn on an account of Borrower that does not have sufficient funds at the time of drawing are deemed to be advances of a Revolving Loan, such Revolving Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

Section 4.6 Advances of Loan Proceeds. Lender shall cause proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested by Borrower to which Borrower is entitled under the terms of this Agreement to be disbursed as directed by Borrower.

Section 4.7 No LIBOR Rate Loans or Applicable Floating Rate Loans When Default Exists. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this Agreement, and without limiting any other rights of Lender, if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Lender’s election, (a) Borrower may not select a LIBOR Rate Loan or an Applicable Floating Rate Loan, (b) Borrower may not convert any Revolving Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or an

 

-20-


Applicable Floating Rate Loan, and (c) no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan for a new Interest Period. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at Lender’s election, each LIBOR Rate Loan shall convert to a Base Rate Loan at the expiration of the applicable Interest Period and, at Lender’s election, all Applicable Floating Rate Loans will be converted to Base Rate Loans.

Section 4.8 Conversion of Loans. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may convert all or any part of any outstanding Base Rate Loan, Applicable Floating Rate Loan, or LIBOR Rate Loan into another Revolving Loan on any Business Day (which, in the case of a conversion of an outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan shall be the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan). Borrower shall give Lender prior notice of each such conversion (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement.

Section 4.9 Lender’s Note Records. Borrower irrevocably authorizes Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of any Revolving Loan, or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal or interest on the Note, an appropriate notation in Lender’s records reflecting (as the case may be) the making of such Revolving Loan or the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans set forth in the records of Lender shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid to Lender pursuant to the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of Lender to record (or any error in so recording) the amount of any Revolving Loan or payment in Lender’s records shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement (or the Note) to make payments of principal of or interest thereunder when due.

Section 4.10 Voluntary Prepayments. LIBOR Rate Loans may not be prepaid in whole or in part (unless contemporaneously with or promptly after any prepayment thereof Borrower pay Lender all amounts owed pursuant to Section 4.13 of this Agreement). Base Rate Loans and Applicable Floating Rate Loans may be prepaid at any time, without any premium or prepayment charge.

Section 4.11 Method of Payments. All payments of principal of and interest by Borrower in respect of amounts due by Borrower under this Agreement shall be made by Borrower to Lender at Lender’s Portland, Oregon, office (or at such other location that Lender may from time to time designate), in each case in immediately available funds denominated in United States dollars. All payments by Borrower under this Agreement and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes imposed on a Lender, 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 Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to debit Borrower’s operating account at Lender to make the payments then due and payable by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement. Lender plans to implement procedures that will automatically result in a debit or other draft on the above-referenced account to collect the payments owed by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the Note. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s failure to debit the above-referenced account to collect a payment owed pursuant to this

 

-21-


Agreement and the Note shall not relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation to make the payment in question.

Section 4.12 Indemnified Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction or withholding for, any Indemnified Taxes imposed on a Lender, provided however, if any Indemnified Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document to any Lender (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 4.12), such Lender receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable requirements of law and (iv) the Borrower promptly shall deliver to Lender certificates or other valid vouchers or evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender in Lender’s reasonable discretion for all Indemnified Taxes deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by Borrower under this Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify Lender for all Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 4.12 paid by Lender, and any penalties and interest arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section 4.12(b) for penalties, interest or other additions with respect to any Tax incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that Lender notifies Borrower, in writing, of the Tax, and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefrom; provided further, that if a Tax is retroactive, the 270 day period described in the foregoing clause is extended to include the retroactive period. Payment of this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Lender provides Borrower with a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount and type of such Indemnified Taxes. Any such certificate submitted by Lender in good faith to Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties.

(c) If Lender claims any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.12, it shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and requirements of law) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of Lender, subject Lender to any reasonable unreimbursed cost or expense or be otherwise disadvantageous to it.

(d) (i) Each Non-U.S. Lender that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding Tax or, after a change in any requirement of law, is subject to such withholding Tax at a reduced rate under an applicable tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or

 

-22-


certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower, provide the Borrower with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from United States withholding Tax because the income is effectively connected with a United States trade or business), W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, United States withholding Tax under an income tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from United States withholding Tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to Borrower that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender to such exemption from United States withholding Tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender under this Agreement. Unless the Borrower has received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under this Agreement to or for a Non-U.S. Lender are not subject to United States withholding Tax or are subject to such Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable requirements of law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(ii) Each U.S. Lender shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender becomes a “U.S. Lender” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (d) and (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower, provide the Borrower with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding Tax) or any successor form.

(iii) In addition, if a payment made by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender, any other recipient of such payment (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to Lender or such recipient) fails 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 Person shall deliver to the Borrower any documentation required by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower sufficient for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Person has complied with such applicable reporting requirements.

(e) If Lender or any other recipient of any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement determines in its sole discretion that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.12, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.12 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Lender or such other recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant

 

-23-


Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of Lender or such other recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender or such other recipient in the event such Person is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to Borrower or to any other Person.

Section 4.13 LIBOR Indemnity. If Borrower for any reason makes any payment of principal with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or fails to borrow or continue or convert to a LIBOR Rate Loan after giving a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion thereof pursuant to Section 4.5 of this Agreement, or fails to prepay a LIBOR Rate Loan after having given notice thereof, Borrower shall pay to Lender any amount required to compensate Lender for any additional losses, costs, or expenses that Lender reasonably may incur as a result of such payment or failure (calculated in accordance with Lender’s standard practice at the time in question), including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), costs, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds required by Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan. Borrower shall pay such amount upon presentation by Lender of a statement setting forth the amount and Lender’s calculation thereof in reasonable detail, which statement shall be deemed true and correct, absent manifest error.

Section 4.14 Changed Circumstances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that:

(a) On any date on which the LIBOR Rate or the Applicable Floating Rate otherwise would be set Lender shall determine in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate or the Applicable Floating Rate, or

(b) At any time Lender shall determine in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that:

(i) The making or continuation of or conversion of any loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or an Applicable Floating Rate Loan has been made impracticable or unlawful by (a) the occurrence of a contingency that materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market, or (b) compliance by Lender in good faith with any applicable law or governmental regulation, guideline, or order or interpretation or change thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or with any request or directive of any such governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law); or

(ii) The LIBOR Rate or the Applicable Floating Rate no longer shall represent the effective cost to Lender for United States dollar deposits in the interbank market for deposits in which Lender regularly participates;

 

-24-


then, and in any such event, Lender promptly shall notify Borrower thereof. Until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the obligation of Lender to allow selection by Borrower of LIBOR Rate Loans or Applicable Floating Rate Loans affected by the contingencies described in this Section 4.14 shall be suspended. If, at the time Lender so notifies Borrower, Borrower previously has given Lender a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion with respect to one or more LIBOR Rate Loans or Applicable Floating Rate Loans but such Revolving Loans have not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan.

Section 4.15 Prepayment Due to Illegality. In the event of a determination of illegality pursuant to Section 4.14 of this Agreement with respect to the outstanding affected LIBOR Rate Loans or Applicable Floating Rate Loans, Borrower shall prepay the same, together with interest thereon and any amount due pursuant to Section 4.13, if any, of this Agreement, on such date as shall be specified in Lender’s notice to Borrower (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), unless Lender is permitted to maintain such Revolving Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of each then-applicable Interest Period. Unless otherwise agreed by Borrower and Lender, any payment required in accordance with the preceding sentence shall (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) be made automatically with a Base Rate Loan.

Section 4.16 Increased Costs Generally. 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, Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate);

(b) Subject Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, or any LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender in respect thereof (except for Excluded Taxes); or

(c) Impose on Lender, the London Interbank Eurodollar market any other condition, cost, or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by Lender or any Letter of Credit;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to Lender 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 Lender under this Agreement (whether of principal, interest, or any other amount) then, upon request of Lender, Borrower will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

Section 4.17 Capital Requirements. If Lender determines reasonably in good faith that any Change in Law affecting Lender or any lending office of Lender, or Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing

 

-25-


the rate of return on Lender’s capital, or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the commitments of Lender or the Loans made by, or the Letters of Credit issued by Lender, to a level below that which Lender, or Lender’s holding company, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender, or Lender’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered.

Section 4.18 Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender, or its holding company, as specified in Section 4.16 or Section 4.17 of this Agreement and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 20 days after receipt thereof.

In the event of the commencement of any such proceeding or litigation, Borrower shall be entitled to participate in such proceeding or litigation with counsel of Borrower’s choice at Borrower’s own expense, provided that such counsel shall be satisfactory to Lender, in Lender’s reasonable discretion. The provisions of this Section 11.8 of this Agreement shall survive payment (or satisfaction of payment) of all amounts owing with respect to the Note or any other Loan Document.

Section 11.9 Waiver of Consequential Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower hereby agrees not to assert, and Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any indemnitee under Section 11.8 of this Agreement on any theory of liability for special damages, indirect damages, consequential damages, or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Revolving Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 11.10 Payments Set Aside. To the extent any payments in respect of the Obligations (or any proceeds of any Collateral, including, but not limited to, any proceeds received by Lender as a result of any enforcement proceeding or setoff), or any part thereof, subsequently are invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such repayment (including any such repayment made voluntarily by Lender in its reasonable discretion), the Obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and shall continue in full force and effect, and Lender’s rights, powers, and remedies under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect, as if such payment had not been made, or such enforcement proceeding or setoff had not occurred. In such event, each Loan Document automatically shall be reinstated and Borrower shall take such action as reasonably may be requested by Lender to effect such reinstatement.

Section 11.11 Waiver of Various Matters; No Suretyship Defenses. Borrower hereby waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default (except to the extent specifically and expressly required under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, modification, amendment, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Lender on which Borrower may in any way be liable. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to repay the amounts owed pursuant to the Note and this Agreement are direct and unconditional. Borrower hereby waives any claim that it is merely a surety in respect of the Obligations and Borrower hereby waives any rights or defenses that are (or might be) available to a surety in relation to this Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents, and the Obligations.

Section 11.12 USA Patriot Act Notice. Lender hereby notifies Borrower 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”), Lender is required to obtain, verify, and record

information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 11.13 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents set forth and constitute the entire agreement among Lender and Borrower with respect to the Revolving Loans evidenced by the Note and the security for those Revolving Loans. No oral promise or agreement of any kind or nature, other than those that have been reduced to writing and have been set forth in this Agreement, the Note, or the other Loan Documents, has been made among Lender and Borrower with respect to the Revolving Loans evidenced by the Note and the security for those Revolving Loans. Borrower acknowledges that Borrower has been represented by legal counsel in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower voluntarily executed this Agreement and the other agreements and instruments referred to in this Agreement.

Section 11.14 Amendment. This Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents may be amended or modified only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of Borrower and Lender that by its terms expressly supersedes, modifies, amends, or alters this Agreement (or another Loan Document, as applicable).

Section 11.15 Interpretation. This Agreement is a negotiated agreement. In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement, such ambiguity shall not be subject to a rule of contract interpretation that would cause the ambiguity to be construed against any of the parties to this Agreement.

Section 11.16 Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Note, or the other Loan Documents by Lender, or consent by Lender to any failure by Borrower to comply with any provision of this Agreement, the Note, or the other Loan Documents shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 11.17 Standard for Discretion. In the event this Agreement is silent on the standard for any consent, approval, determination, or similar discretionary action by Lender, the standard shall be sole and unfettered discretion.

Section 11.18 Headings. The headings of the various provisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 11.19 Construction. In the event of any conflict between the terms, conditions, and provisions of this Agreement and those of any other document or instrument referred to in this Agreement, the terms, conditions, and provisions of this Agreement shall control.
