Section 8.3 Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes of any Series pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes of such Series to be prepaid shall be allocated pro rata among all the Notes of such Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Notes of such Series not theretofore called for prepayment.

No Make-Whole Amount or other premium shall be required to be paid in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.5(a)(i).

(ii) Asset Disposition Payments. If the Company receives Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 in respect of a transaction referred to in Section 10.6(b) in respect of the Kinzua Facilities Agreement, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, the Company shall make an offer to all holders of the Notes, and, any other Secured Pari Indebtedness permitted under Section 10.5 that has a substantially similar provision requiring repayment upon the receipt of all such Net Cash Proceeds, to prepay a portion of the Notes and such other Secured Pari Indebtedness that may be prepaid out of such Net Cash Proceeds, at a price in cash equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not

The amount of the Notes subject to an Offer to Prepay pursuant to this Section 8.5(a)(ii) shall be equal to the product of (A) a fraction, (1) the numerator of which shall be the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes and (2) the denominator of which shall be the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Secured Pari Indebtedness that require or have accepted an offer of such a prepayment and (B) the amount of Net Cash Proceeds. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and any other Secured Pari Indebtedness permitted under Section 10.5 that has a substantially similar provision requiring repayment upon the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds tendered pursuant to an Offer to Prepay is less than the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Net Cash Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Agreement.

Such notice, which shall govern the terms of the Offer to Prepay, shall describe the events or circumstances giving rise to such Offer to Prepay, and shall state that such Offer to Prepay is being made pursuant to this Section 8.5(b) and shall state:

(1) if applicable, the aggregate amount being offered by the Company to prepay the Notes and to pay unpaid accrued interest on the principal amount of the Notes and any other Senior Indebtedness permitted under Section 10.5 that has a substantially similar provision requiring repayment to be made pursuant to such Offer to Prepay;

(2) the date (the “Purchase Date”), which date shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days from the Offer Date, the Company shall repay the Notes validly tendered for prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.5(b);

(3) that during the Offer Period, each holder of Notes has the right to accept or decline such Offer to Prepay as to its pro rata share thereof (such pro rata share to be determined by multiplying the aggregate amount of such Offer to Prepay by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the Notes owing to such holder on the Offer Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Notes and any other Senior Indebtedness permitted under Section 10.5 that has a substantially similar provision requiring repayment as of the Offer Date);

(7) that holders electing to have any Notes purchased in full (to the extent cash is available therefor) pursuant to an Offer to Prepay will be required to surrender such Notes within ten (10) Business Days after purchase; and

The Company shall on the Purchase Date pay to each tendering holder of Notes the amount due pursuant to Section 8.5(a) with respect to such Notes tendered by such holder. On the Purchase Date, all Notes purchased or repaid by the Company shall be delivered to the Company for cancellation.

(iv) If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding clause, on and after the Purchase Date interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions thereof repurchased or repaid. If any holder of Notes accepts an Offer to Prepay pursuant to Section 8.5(a) and such acceptance is not rescinded but the Company does not repurchase or repay such Note, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the Purchase Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes.

Section 8.6 Mandatory Offer to Prepay for Change in Control(i) .

(a) Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the date upon which a Change in Control has occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to the consummation of a transaction giving rise to such Change in Control but after the public announcement of such transaction, in either case unless the Company has previously or concurrently elected to prepay all of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the Company shall make an offer (the date of such offer, the “CIC Offer Date”) to prepay all (but not less than all) of the Notes of each holder, at a price in cash equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon, if any, to, but not including, the CIC Purchase Date. An offer to prepay in connection with a Change in Control may be made in advance of a Change in Control, conditional upon such Change in Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change in Control at the time of the making of such offer to prepay. No Make-Whole Amount or other premium shall be required to be paid in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.6(a).

(b) Any offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to Section 8.6(a) shall be made as set forth in this Section 8.6(b).

(i) On the CIC Offer Date, the Company shall make an offer to prepay, which shall remain open for a period of at least twenty (20) days following its commencement (the “CIC Offer Period”), by sending a notice to each holder of Notes in accordance with Article 18 which notice shall contain all instructions and forms necessary to enable each holder of Notes to accept the offer to prepay with respect to its Notes and, if applicable, to tender its Notes with respect to such offer to prepay, it being understood that each holder shall have the right to accept the offer to prepay prior to the expiration of the applicable CIC Offer Period. Such notice, which shall govern the terms of the offer to prepay, shall describe the Change in Control giving rise to such offer to prepay, and shall state that such Offer to Prepay is being made pursuant to this Section 8.6(b) and shall state:

(1) the date (the “CIC Purchase Date”, which date may be adjusted in accordance with Section 8.6(b)(vi) below), which date shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days from the CIC Offer Date, the Company proposes to repay the Notes validly tendered for prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.6(b);

(ii) The Company shall tabulate the total aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes tendered for prepayment. In the event that 50% or less of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Notes are tendered for prepayment within the CIC Offer Period, then each holder of Notes shall have been deemed to have rejected the offer to prepay (regardless of whether such holder has sent a notice of acceptance) and all Notes shall remain outstanding and shall continue to accrue interest. In the event that greater than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Notes are tendered for prepayment within the CIC Offer Period, then each holder of Notes shall have been deemed to have accepted the offer to prepay for the full amount of its Notes outstanding and, subject to the satisfaction of the condition that the Change in Control occurs (if applicable), tendered all such Notes for prepayment and, unless the Company defaults in making such payment or such offer does not become unconditional, all Notes shall cease to accrue interest after the CIC Purchase Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Notes held by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be included in any determination of whether or not the 50% threshold is reached or not. The Company shall, within two (2) Business Days of making its determination under this clause (b)(ii), notify each holder pursuant to Article 18 of whether the prepayment will or will not be made to all holders on all Notes, subject to the satisfaction of the condition that the Change in Control occurs, if applicable.

(iv) On the CIC Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent the Notes are to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.6: (A) to the extent lawful, accept for payment all of the Notes and (B) pay to each applicable holder an amount equal to the payment required in respect of such holder’s Notes. On, or promptly following, the CIC Purchase Date, all Notes purchased or repaid by the Company shall be delivered to the Company for cancellation.

(v) If the offer is unconditional and the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding clause (iv), on and after the CIC Purchase Date interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes. If the Notes are to be prepaid in accordance with this Section 8.6 and the Company does not repurchase or repay such Note, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the CIC Purchase Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes.

- 29 -

(vi) The Company may postpone the CIC Purchase Date, to a date that is no later than sixty (60) days from the CIC Offer Date, at any time by notice to each holder pursuant to Article 18 where such notice is given at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date which had been previously been notified to the holders of Notes as the CIC Purchase Date.

Section 8.7 Mandatory Redemption of Notes for Project Disposition. If the Company consummates after the Closing Date a sale of all or substantially all of its assets as permitted by Section 10.2 and Section 10.6, then, concurrently with the consummation of such sale, unless the Company has previously or concurrently elected to prepay all of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the Company shall prepay all (but not less than all) of the Notes of each holder, at a price in cash equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon, if any, to, but not including, the date of repayment. No Make-Whole Amount or other premium shall be required to be paid in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.7. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each prepayment under this Section 8.7 not less than twenty (20) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date proposed for such prepayment (unless the Company and the Required Holders agree to another time period). Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid, and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. The Company may rescind such notice of prepayment if the applicable sale transaction is not consummated and may postpone the prepayment date, to a date that is no later than sixty (60) days from date of such notice of prepayment, at any time by notice to each holder pursuant to Article 18 where such postponement notice is given at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date which had been previously been notified to the holders of Notes as the prepayment date.

Section 8.8 Purchase of Notes. The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to a call for tenders given to all holders of the Notes by notice given in accordance with Section 18, which notice shall specify the purchase date (which shall not be earlier than fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice), the purchase price and the place of payment thereof. Any such call for tenders shall provide that the terms and conditions for such purchase shall be the same for all Notes except to the extent that the respective purchase prices differ for different Series of Notes as a result of differences in interest rates or payment or

- 30 -

Maturity Dates. If an aggregate principal amount of the Notes is tendered which is greater than that offered to be purchased, such tendered Notes shall be purchased on a pro rata basis in the proportion, as nearly as practicable, which the principal amount of Notes tendered by each holder bears to the principal amount of Notes tendered by all holders of Notes and in order of maturity to all scheduled amortizations. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment or prepayment of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

Section 8.9 Make-Whole Amount. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Initial Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal; provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Initial Note, the principal of such Initial Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Initial Note is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Initial Note.

- 31 -

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Initial Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date; provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of such Initial Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Initial Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Additional Senior Notes, an amount calculated as set forth in the Supplement pursuant to which such Additional Senior Notes are issued

Section 8.10 Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) subject to clause (b) of this Section, any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the

- 32 -

computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day, and (b) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on any scheduled repayment date or the maturity date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

This Article 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

ARTICLE 20

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

For the purposes of this Article 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Obligors in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered “Confidential Information” regardless of whether such information has been clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified as confidential; provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, or (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by an Obligor. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser; provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its affiliates and its and their respective directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents and attorneys (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Article 20, (iii) the Collateral Agent or any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Article 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of an Obligor (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential

- 53 -

Information to be bound by the provisions of this Article 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and the Financing Documents. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Article 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by an Obligor in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Obligors embodying the provisions of this Article 20. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, a Purchaser may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal or state income Tax treatment and Tax Structure of the Notes and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other Tax analyses) that are provided to the Purchaser related to such Tax treatment and Tax Structure. For this purpose, “Tax Structure” means any facts relevant to the U.S. federal or state income Tax treatment of the Notes but does not include information relating to the identity of the Obligors.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Obligors in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through a secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Article 20, this Article 20 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and the Obligors, this Article 20 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.

ARTICLE 21

SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s Affiliates (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Article 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Article 21) shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Article 21) shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.
