2 Sale And Purchase of Notes

2A[Intentionally Omitted].

2B Sale and Purchase of Shelf Notes.

2B(1)Facility. PIM is willing to consider, in its sole discretion and within limits that may be authorized for purchase by PIM and Prudential Affiliates from time to time, the purchase of Shelf Notes pursuant to this Agreement. The willingness of PIM to consider such purchase of Shelf Notes is herein called the “Facility.” At any time, (i) the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes stated in Section 1G, minus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes purchased and sold pursuant to this Agreement prior to such time, minus (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Accepted Notes (as hereinafter defined) which have not yet been purchased and sold hereunder prior to such time, is herein called the “Available Facility Amount” at such time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing herein, (a) in no event shall any Shelf Note be purchased under the Facility if, upon giving effect to such purchase and the use of proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all Notes then outstanding would exceed $300,000,000, and (b) in no event shall any Shelf Note be purchased under the Facility by a Prudential Affiliate described in clause (i) of the definition thereof if, upon giving effect to such purchase and the use of proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all Notes and any other notes of the Company then outstanding and held by all Prudential Affiliates described in such clause, would exceed $250,000,000. NOTWITHSTANDING THE WILLINGNESS OF PIM TO CONSIDER PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO ON THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT NEITHER PIM NOR ANY PRUDENTIAL AFFILIATE SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO MAKE OR ACCEPT OFFERS TO PURCHASE SHELF NOTES, OR TO QUOTE RATES, SPREADS OR OTHER TERMS WITH RESPECT TO SPECIFIC PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, AND THE FACILITY SHALL IN NO WAY BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY PIM OR ANY PRUDENTIAL AFFILIATE.

2B(2)Issuance Period. Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement (or if such date is not a New York Business Day, the New York Business Day next preceding such date), and (ii) the thirtieth day after PIM shall have given to the Company, or the Company shall have given to PIM, written notice stating that it elects to terminate the issuance and sale of Shelf Notes

3

pursuant to this Agreement (or if such thirtieth day is not a New York Business Day, the New York Business Day next preceding such thirtieth day). The period during which Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement is herein called the “Issuance Period.”

2B(3)Request For Purchase. The Company may from time to time during the Issuance Period make requests for purchases of Shelf Notes (each such request being herein called a “Request for Purchase”). Each Request for Purchase shall be made to PIM by email or overnight delivery service, and shall (i) specify the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes covered thereby, which shall not be less than $10,000,000 and not be greater than the Available Facility Amount at the time such Request for Purchase is made, (ii) specify the principal amounts, final maturities (which shall be no more than 15 years from the date of original issuance), and principal prepayment dates and amounts (which shall result in an average life of no more than 12 years from the date of original issuance) of the Shelf Notes covered thereby, (iii) specify the interest payment periods (which shall be quarterly or semi-annually), (iv) specify the use of proceeds of such Shelf Notes, (v) specify the proposed day for the closing of the purchase and sale of such Shelf Notes, which shall be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less than 10 Business Days and not more than 120 days after the making of such Request for Purchase, (vi) specify the number of the account and the name and address of the depository institution to which the purchase prices of such Shelf Notes are to be transferred on the Closing Day for such purchase and sale, (vii) certify that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 are true on and as of the date of such Request for Purchase and that there exists on the date of such Request for Purchase no Event of Default or Default, and (viii) be substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. Each Request for Purchase shall be in writing and shall be deemed made when received by PIM.

2B(4)Rate Quotes. Not later than 5 Business Days after the Company shall have given PIM a Request for Purchase pursuant to Section 2B(3), PIM may, but shall be under no obligation to, provide to the Company by telephone interest rate quotes for the several principal amounts, maturities and principal prepayment schedules, and interest payment periods of Shelf Notes specified in such Request for Purchase. Each quote shall represent the interest rate per annum payable on the outstanding principal balance of such Shelf Notes at which PIM or a Prudential Affiliate would be willing to purchase such Shelf Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof.

2B(5)Acceptance. Within 2 minutes after PIM shall have provided any interest rate quotes pursuant to Section 2B(4) or such shorter period as PIM may specify to the Company (such period herein called the “Acceptance Window”), the Company may, subject to Section 2B(6), elect to accept such interest rate quotes as to not less than $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Shelf Notes specified in the related Request for Purchase. Such election shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Company notifying PIM by telephone or email within the Acceptance Window (but not earlier than 9:30 a.m. or later than 1:30 p.m. (or such later time as PIM may agree), New York City local time) that the Company elects to accept such interest rate quotes, specifying the Shelf Notes (each such Shelf Note being herein called an “Accepted Note”) as to which such acceptance (herein called an “Acceptance”) relates. The day the Company notifies PIM of an Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes is herein called the “Acceptance Day” for such Accepted Notes. Any interest rate quotes as to which PIM does not receive an Acceptance within the Acceptance Window shall expire, and no

4

purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on such expired interest rate quotes. Subject to Section 2B(6) and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company agrees to sell to PIM or a Prudential Affiliate, and PIM agrees to purchase, or to cause the purchase by a Prudential Affiliate of, the Accepted Notes at 100% of the principal amount of such Accepted Notes. As soon as practicable following the Acceptance Day, the Company, PIM and each Prudential Affiliate which is to purchase any such Accepted Notes will execute a confirmation of such Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit C (herein called a “Confirmation of Acceptance”). If the Company should fail to execute and return to PIM within 2 Business Days following receipt thereof a Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes, PIM may at its election at any time prior to its receipt thereof cancel the closing with respect to such Accepted Notes by so notifying the Company in writing.

2B(6)Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2B(5), if PIM shall have provided interest rate quotes pursuant to Section 2B(4) and thereafter, prior to the time an Acceptance with respect to such quotes shall have been notified to PIM in accordance with Section 2B(5), the domestic market for United States treasury securities or derivatives shall have closed or there shall have occurred a general suspension, material limitation, or significant disruption of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or in the domestic market for United States treasury securities or derivatives, then such interest rate quotes shall expire, and no purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on such expired interest rate quotes. If the Company thereafter notifies PIM of the Acceptance of any such interest rate quotes, such Acceptance shall be ineffective for all purposes of this Agreement, and PIM shall promptly notify the Company that the provisions of this Section 2B(6) are applicable with respect to such Acceptance.

2B(7)Facility Closings. Not later than 1:30 p.m. (New York City local time) on the Closing Day for any Accepted Notes, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser listed in the Confirmation of Acceptance relating thereto at the offices of Vedder Price P.C., 275 Battery Street, Suite 2464, San Francisco, California 94111 (or such other address as PIM may specify in writing), the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of one or more Notes in authorized denominations as such Purchaser may request for each Series of Accepted Notes to be purchased on such Closing Day, dated the applicable Closing Day and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against payment of the purchase price thereof by transfer of immediately available funds for credit to the account specified in the Request for Purchase of such Notes. If the Company fails to tender to any Purchaser the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser on the scheduled Closing Day for such Accepted Notes as provided above in this paragraph 2B(7), or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled by the time required on such scheduled Closing Day, the Company shall, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City local time, on such scheduled Closing Day notify PIM (which notification shall be deemed received by each Purchaser) in writing whether (i) such closing is to be rescheduled (such rescheduled date to be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less than one Business Day and not more than 10 Business Days after such scheduled Closing Day (the “Rescheduled Closing Day”)) and certify to PIM (which certification shall be for the benefit of each Purchaser) that the Company reasonably believes that it will be able to comply with the conditions set forth in Section 4 on such Rescheduled Closing Day and that the Company will pay the Delayed Delivery Fee in accordance with Section 2B(8)(iii), or (ii) such closing is to be canceled and the Company will pay the Cancellation Fee

5

as provided in Section 2B(8)(iv). In the event that the Company shall fail to give such notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, PIM (on behalf of each Purchaser) may at its election, at any time after 2:00 p.m., New York City local time, on such scheduled Closing Day, notify the Company in writing that such closing is to be canceled and the Company is obligated to pay the Cancellation Fee as provided in Section 2B(8)(iv). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing in this Agreement, the Company may elect to reschedule a closing with respect to any given Accepted Notes on not more than one occasion, unless PIM shall have otherwise consented in writing.

2B(8)Fees.

2B(8)(i)Draw Fees. The Company shall pay to or as directed by PIM in immediately available funds a fee (herein called a “Draw Fee”) on or before each Closing Day (other than the initial Closing Day, if any, occurring within the first six months after the date hereof on which a minimum aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 of Shelf Notes is purchased and sold) in an amount equal to 0.10% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes sold on such Closing Day.

2B(8)(ii)Structuring Fee. In consideration for the time, effort and expense involved in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the Company will pay to or as directed by PIM, on the date that is six months after the date hereof (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), a fully earned and non-refundable fee in the aggregate amount of $50,000; provided, however, that (a) if a minimum aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 of Shelf Notes is purchased and sold during the first six months after the date hereof, then the amount of such fee required to be paid on such day shall be reduced to $25,000, and (b) if a minimum aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 of Shelf Notes is purchased and sold during the first three months after the date hereof, then no such fee shall be payable (herein called the “Structuring Fee”).

2B(8)(iii)Delayed Delivery Fees.

(a) In the Event of a Delayed Closing. If the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note is delayed for any reason beyond the original Closing Day for such Accepted Note but such closing is ultimately consummated, then the Company shall pay to or as directed by PIM, on the actual Closing Day of such purchase and sale, an amount (herein called the “Delayed Delivery Fee”) equal to:

(BEY - MMY) X DTS/360 X PA

where “BEY” means Bond Equivalent Yield, i.e., the bond equivalent yield per annum of such Accepted Note; “MMY” means Money Market Yield, i.e., the yield per annum on an alternative Dollar investment of the highest quality selected by PIM having a maturity date or dates the same as, or closest to, the Rescheduled Closing Day from time to time fixed for the delayed delivery of such Accepted Note; “DTS” means Days to Settlement, i.e., the number of actual days elapsed from and including the original Closing Day for such Accepted Note to but excluding the date of such payment; and “PA” means Principal Amount, i.e., the principal amount of the Accepted Note for which such calculation is being made.

6

In no case shall the Delayed Delivery Fee be less than zero. Nothing contained herein shall obligate any Purchaser to purchase any Accepted Note on any day other than the Closing Day for

7

such Accepted Note, as the same may be rescheduled from time to time in compliance with Section 2B(7).

(b) In the Event of Cancellation. If the Company at any time notifies PIM in writing that the Company is canceling the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note, or if PIM notifies the Company in writing under the circumstances set forth in the last sentence of paragraph 2B(5) or the penultimate sentence of Section 2B(7) that the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is to be canceled, or if the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is not consummated on or prior to the last day of the Issuance Period (the date of any such notification, or the last day of the Issuance Period, as the case may be, being herein called the “Cancellation Date”), the Company shall pay to or as directed by PIM in immediately available funds on the Cancellation Date an amount (herein called the “Cancellation Event Delayed Delivery Fee”) equal to:

(BEY - MMY) X DTS/360 X PA

where “BEY” means Bond Equivalent Yield, i.e., the bond equivalent yield per annum of such Accepted Note; “MMY” means Money Market Yield, i.e., the yield per annum on an alternative Dollar investment of the highest quality selected by PIM having a maturity date or dates the same as, or closest to, the original scheduled Closing Day or any Rescheduled Closing Day from time to time fixed for the delayed delivery of such Accepted Note; “DTS” means Days to Settlement, i.e., the number of actual days elapsed from and including the Acceptance Day for such Accepted Note to but excluding the Cancellation Date of such Accepted Note; and “PA” means Principal Amount, i.e., the principal amount of the Accepted Note for which such calculation is being made.

In no case shall the Cancellation Event Delayed Delivery Fee be less than zero.

2B(8)(iv)Cancellation Fee. If the Company at any time notifies PIM in writing that the Company is canceling the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note, or if PIM notifies the Company in writing under the circumstances set forth in the last sentence of paragraph 2B(5) or the penultimate sentence of Section 2B(7) that the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is to be canceled, or if the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is not consummated on or prior to the last day of the Issuance Period, the Company shall pay to or as directed by PIM in immediately available funds on the Cancellation Date an amount (herein called the “Cancellation Fee”) equal to:

PI X PA

where “PI” means Price Increase, i.e., the quotient (expressed in decimals) obtained by dividing (a) the excess of the ask price (as determined by PIM) of the Hedge Treasury Note(s) on the Cancellation Date over the bid price (as determined by PIM) of the Hedge Treasury Note(s) on the Acceptance Day for such Accepted Note by (b) such bid price; and “PA” has the meaning ascribed to it in paragraph 2B(8)(iii). The foregoing bid and ask prices shall be as reported by such publicly available source of such market data as is then customarily used by PIM, and rounded to the second decimal place.

In no case shall the Cancellation Fee be less than zero.

Since the date of the most recent audited balance sheet delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(b), or if no such balance sheet has been delivered, the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, Properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the other documents, certificates and other writings delivered to PIM by or on behalf of the Company.

5.5 Financial Statements.

The Company has furnished each holder of Notes and each Purchaser of Accepted Notes with the following financial statements: (i) consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the last day in each of the last three Fiscal Years completed prior to the date as of which this representation is made or repeated (other than Fiscal Years completed within 90 days prior to such date for which audited financial statements have not been released), and consolidated statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for each such year, all certified by independent certified public accountants of recognized international standing; and (ii) unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the end of the quarterly period (if any) most recently completed prior to such date and after the end of the most recent Fiscal Year (other than quarterly periods completed within 45 days prior to such date for which financial statements have not been released) and unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the periods from the beginning of the Fiscal Years in which such quarterly periods are included to the end of such quarterly periods and the comparable quarterly period in the immediately preceding Fiscal Year. Such financial statements (including any related schedules and/or notes) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject, as to interim statements, to changes resulting from year-end adjustments) consistently applied throughout the periods involved and show all liabilities, direct and contingent, of the Company and its Subsidiaries required to be shown in accordance with such principles. The balance sheets fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the dates thereof, and the statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows fairly present the consolidated financial results of their operations for the periods indicated.

5.6 Compliance with Laws; Other Instruments, Etc.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter (or similar constitutive documents) or bylaws (or similar documents), or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

14

proceedings which prevent enforcement of the matter under contest and as to which adequate reserves established in accordance with GAAP have been provided or where the failure to so file or pay would not cause a Material Adverse Effect. The Company does not know of any proposed additional tax assessment against it or its Subsidiaries for which adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP have not been made on their accounts. Adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for taxes on the books of the Company and each Subsidiary have been made for all open years, and for its current fiscal period.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective Properties (other than Properties which are leased) that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such Properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(b), or if no such balance sheet has been delivered, the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement.

| (e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company to each Purchaser in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser.

Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would constitute a general solicitation with respect to the issuance or sale of the Notes or that otherwise would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

16

5.14 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of each Series of Shelf Notes in the manner described in the applicable Request for Purchase with respect to such Series of Shelf Notes.

The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

8.6 Make-Whole Amount.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any 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 Note, the principal of such 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 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 the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the ask side yields reported, as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City local time) on the Business Day next preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, for actively traded United States treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date on the display

28

designated as “Page PX1” on Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”) (or, if Bloomberg shall cease to report such yields on Page PX1 or shall cease to be PIM’s customary source of information for calculating make-whole amounts on privately placed notes, then such source as is then PIM’s customary source of such information), or if such yields shall not be reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time shall not be ascertainable, (ii) the Treasury Constant Maturity Series yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields shall have been so reported as of the second Business Day next preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded United States treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied yield shall be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting United States treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice, and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded United States treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal, and (2) the actively traded United States treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) 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 (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) 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 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 the Notes, 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 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.

12 Remedies On Default, Etc.

12.1 Acceleration.

| (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section 11(g) or (h) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 11(g) or described in clause (vi) of Section 11(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of Section 11(g)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.

| (b) If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, in addition to any action that may be taken pursuant to Section 12.1(c), any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable.

| (c) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of any Series at the time outstanding may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes of such Series then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (x) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to, interest accrued thereon at the Default Rate) and (y) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from prepayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

12.2 Other Remedies.

If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

12.3 Rescission.

At any time after any Notes of any Series have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of Section 12.1, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes

41

of such Series then outstanding, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes of such Series, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes of such Series that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes of such Series, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

12.4 No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc.

No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, any Note or any other Transaction Document upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

13 Registration; Exchange; Substitution Of Notes.

13.1 Registration of Notes.

The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes.

13.2 Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

Each such replacement Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of the Note so surrendered. Each such replacement Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000; provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes of a Series, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000.

| (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $5,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

| (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon; provided, that in no event shall the Company be required to pay any interest or principal with respect to a replacement Note if such amounts have previously been paid with respect to the original Note.

14 Payments On Notes.

43

payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

14.2 Home Office Payment.

So long as a Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose, in the case of the Series A Notes or the Series B Notes, on the Purchaser Schedule Relating to Series A Notes or Purchaser Schedule Relating to Series B Notes, as applicable, attached hereto as Schedule A and, in the case of any Series C Note, any Series D Note or any Shelf Note, on the Purchaser Schedule attached to the Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to such Note, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by any Purchaser or its nominee such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a replacement Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by any Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as each Purchaser has made in this Section 14.2.

15.1 Transaction Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required by the Required Holders, local or other counsel) incurred by PIM, the Purchasers or any holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, and (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby, by the Notes and the other Transaction Documents.

44

Purchaser and each other holder of a Note harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders.

15.2 Survival.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement.

16 Survival Of Representations And Warranties; Entire Agreement.

All representations and warranties contained herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement or such other Transaction Document. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among PIM, the Purchasers and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

17 Amendment And Waiver.

17.1 Requirements.

This Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents may be amended, and the Company may take any action herein or therein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, if the Company shall obtain the written consent to such amendment, action or omission to act, of the Required Holder(s) of the Notes of each Series except that, (i) with the written consent of the holders of all Notes of a particular Series, and if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, of the holders of all Notes of all Series, at the time outstanding (and not without such written consents), the Notes of such Series may be amended or the provisions thereof waived to change the maturity thereof, to change or affect the principal thereof, or to change or affect the rate or time of payment of interest on or any Make-Whole Amount payable with respect to the Notes of such Series, (ii) without the written consent of the holder or holders of all Notes at the time outstanding, no amendment to or waiver of the provisions of this Agreement shall change or affect the provisions of Section 12 or this Section 17 insofar as such provisions relate to proportions of the principal amount of the Notes of any Series, or the rights of any individual holder of Notes, required with respect to any declaration of Notes to be due and payable or with respect to any consent, amendment, waiver or declaration, (iii) with the written consent of PIM (and not without the written consent of PIM) the provisions of Section 2B may be amended or waived (except insofar as any such amendment or waiver would affect any rights or obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of Notes which shall

45

have become Accepted Notes prior to such amendment or waiver), and (iv) with the written consent of all of the Purchasers which shall have become obligated to purchase Accepted Notes of any Series (and not without the written consent of all such Purchasers), any of the provisions of Sections 2B and 4 may be amended or waived insofar as such amendment or waiver would affect only rights or obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of the Accepted Notes of such Series or the terms and provisions of such Accepted Notes. Each holder of any Note at the time or thereafter outstanding shall be bound by any consent authorized by this Section 17, whether or not such Note shall have been marked to indicate such consent, but any Notes issued thereafter may bear a notation referring to any such consent.

17.2 Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

| (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

| (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

17.3 Binding Effect. Etc.

Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

17.4 Notes Held by Company, Etc.

Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes or any Series thereof then outstanding have approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes

46

Notices under this Section 18 will be deemed to have been given and received when delivered at the address so specified. Any communication pursuant to Section 2 shall be made by the method specified for such communication in Section 2, and shall be effective to create any rights or obligations under this Agreement only if, in the case of a telephone communication, an Authorized Officer of the party conveying the information and of the party receiving the information are parties to the telephone call, and in the case of a facsimile communication, the communication is signed by an Authorized Officer of the party conveying the information, addressed to the attention of an Authorized Officer of the party receiving the information, and in fact received at the facsimile number that is listed for the party receiving the communication on the Information Schedule or at such other facsimile number as the party receiving the information shall have specified in writing to the party sending such information.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit any party hereto 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.

20 CONFIDENTIALITY.

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, 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, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary, or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. 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 directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 20, (iii) 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 Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 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 this Agreement. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a

48

Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company 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 Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

21 MISCELLANEOUS.

21.1 Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

21.2 Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.4 that the notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a New York Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding New York Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding New York Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date 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.

21.3 Accounting Terms.

All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. If, after the date of this Agreement, there shall occur any change in GAAP from those used in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in Section 7.1(b) hereof for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2012 and such change shall result in a change in the method of calculation of any financial covenant, standard or term found in this Agreement, either the Company or the Required Holders may by notice to the holders of the Notes and the Company, respectively, require that the holders of the Notes and the Company negotiate in good faith to amend such covenants, standards, and terms so as equitably to reflect such change in accounting principles, with the desired result being that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be the same as if such change had not been made. No delay by the Company or the Required Holders in requiring such negotiation shall limit their right to so require such a negotiation at any time after such a change in accounting principles. Until any such covenant, standard, or term is amended in accordance with this Section 21.3,

49

financial covenants shall be computed and determined in accordance with GAAP in effect prior to such change in accounting principles.

21.4 Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

21.5 Construction.

Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof.

21.6 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

21.7 Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such state that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such state.

21.8 Jurisdiction and Process. (a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

| (b) The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any

50

holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 21.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

| (c) Nothing in this Section 21.8 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

21.9 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if an action or other proceeding is brought in the State of California and if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them concerning this Agreement, the Notes, the other Transaction Documents and the matters contemplated hereby or thereby (each, a “Claim”), including any and all questions of law or fact relating thereto, shall be determined by judicial reference pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure (“Reference”). The parties shall select a single neutral referee, who shall be a retired state or federal judge. In the event that the parties cannot agree upon a referee, the referee shall be appointed by the court. The referee shall report a statement of decision to the court. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise any self-help remedies, foreclose against any collateral or obtain provisional remedies. The Company shall bear the fees and expenses of the referee unless the referee orders otherwise. The referee shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

21.10 Transaction References. The Company agrees that Prudential Capital Group may (a) refer to its role in the origination of the purchase of the Notes from the Company, as well as the identity of the Company and the aggregate principal amount and issue date of the Notes, on its internet site or in marketing materials, press releases, published “tombstone” announcements or any other print or electronic medium, and (b) display the Company’s corporate logo in conjunction with any such reference.

21.11 No Novation. This Agreement amends, restates and replaces the Prior Agreement and is not intended to constitute a novation thereof (it being acknowledged and

51

agreed that the Company’s covenants in the Prior Agreement shall remain operative for periods prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, and any unwaived breach of such covenants or any unwaived breach of representations and warranties under the Prior Agreement made prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, in each case if such unwaived breach constituted a Default or Event of Default under the Prior Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, shall constitute a Default or Event of Default, as applicable, under this Agreement).
