ARTICLE II     
AMENDMENTS TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

Section 2.1      Amendments – Section 1.01 (Defined Terms) . Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended as follows:

(a)      The following defined terms, and their accompanying definitions, are amended and restated as follows:

“ Applicable Margins ” means, with respect to Revolving Loans, Term Revolving Loans, the Term Loan, the Revolving Loan Unused Line Fee, and the Term Revolving Loan Unused Line Fee, the respective credit spreads per annum set forth in the performance pricing grid set forth below, in accordance with the parameters for calculation and adjustment of such amount also set forth below.

The Applicable Margins shall be determined and adjusted on the date (each a “ Rate Calculation Date ”) that is the first day of the month commencing after the date on which Borrowers provide the quarterly Compliance Certificate regarding the Leverage Ratio in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.01 (each a “ Certificate Delivery Date ”); provided that (a) the Applicable Margins during the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing through the date of delivery of the Compliance Certificate for the period ending March 31, 2013 shall be at Tier 3, and (b) if Borrowers fail to provide the Compliance Certificate to Agent for any fiscal quarter as required by and within the time limits set forth in Section 7.01 , then the Applicable Margins from the applicable date of such failure shall be based on Tier 4 until the first day of the month occurring after the appropriate Compliance Certificate is provided, whereupon the applicable tier shall be determined by the then current Leverage Ratio. In addition, if an Event of Default occurs, then during the continuation thereof, the Applicable Margin shall be based on Tier 4 until such Event of Default is cured or waived. Except to the extent otherwise provided above, each Applicable Margin shall be effective from one Rate Calculation Date until the next Rate Calculation Date.

Agent, at its option, may adjust the Applicable Margins on each Reset Date to reflect the increase or decrease (in a like amount of basis points) between the Current Cost of Funds as of the applicable Reset Date, as determined by Agent (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), and the Prior Cost of Funds. Each such adjustment shall become effective as of the applicable Reset Date.

If any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.01 is inaccurate, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the imposition of a higher Applicable Margin for any period than the Applicable Margin applied for that period, then (i) Borrowers shall immediately deliver to Agent a corrected financial statement and a corrected Compliance Certificate

for that period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on the corrected Compliance Certificate for that period, and (iii) Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent (for the account of the Lenders that hold the Commitments and Loans at the time such payment is received, regardless of whether those Lenders held the Commitments and Loans during the relevant period) the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for that period. This paragraph shall not limit any rights or remedies of Agent or Lenders under any Loan Document and shall survive the termination of this Agreement until the payment in full in cash of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans.

“ Revolving Loan Termination Date ” means the earlier to occur of: (a) March 31, 2023; and (b) the date on which the Commitments terminate in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

“ Term Loan Maturity Date ” means the earlier of (a) March 31, 2033 or (b) the date on which the entire principal balance of the Loans is required to be paid in full, by acceleration or otherwise, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

“ Term Revolving Loan Conversion Date ” means March 31, 2023.

“ Term Revolving Loan Termination Date ” means the earlier to occur of: (a) March 31, 2023; (b) the Term Revolving Loan Conversion Date, and (c) the date on which the Commitments terminate in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b)      The following defined terms are added, in appropriate alphabetical order:

“ Current Cost of Funds ” means as of any applicable date, the amount specified by Agent as representing the amount by which (a) the all-in one (1) month LIBOR Floating Note Rate cost of funds applicable to the Farm Credit Lenders as indicated by the Farm Credit Funding Corporation exceeds (b) the one (1) month LIBOR Rate.

“ Farm Credit Lender ” means a lending institution chartered or otherwise organized and existing pursuant to the provisions of the Farm Credit Act of 1971 and under the regulation of the Farm Credit Administration.

“ LIBOR Floating Note Rate ” means, as of any date, the estimated funding cost (not the actual sale price), including standard underwriting fees, for new farm credit debt securities with a three year Floating Rate Note indication issued into the primary market based on market observations on such date indicated at approximately 9:30 a.m. Eastern time; provided that such indications represent the Farm Credit Funding Corporation’s best estimate of the cost of new debt issues based on a combination of daily surveys of selected farm credit selling group members (participating bond dealers) and ongoing monitoring of the fixed income markets for actual, recent, primary market issuance by other government-sponsored similar bonds and notes and pricing within related derivative markets, particularly the interest rate swap market. Historical information relating to such funding costs is available, for the prior week, on the Farm Credit Funding Corporation’s website

(http://www.farmcreditfunding.com/ffcb_live/fundingCostIndex.html) under the “Output” tab of the most recent spreadsheet.

“ Prior Cost of Funds ” means 4 basis points, which is the amount specified by Agent as representing the amount by which (a) the all-in one (1) month LIBOR Floating Note Rate cost of funds applicable to the Farm Credit Lenders as indicated by the Farm Credit Funding Corporation exceeds (b) the one (1) month LIBOR Rate as of March 16, 2018.

“ Reset Date ” means each of April 1, 2021, April 1, 2024, and April 1, 2027.

Section 4.2      Release . Each Credit Party hereby releases, remises, acquits and forever discharges Agent and each of Lenders and their respective employees, agents, representatives, consultants, attorneys, fiduciaries, officers, directors, partners, predecessors, successors and assigns, subsidiary corporations, parent corporations, and related corporate divisions (collectively, the “ Released Parties ”), from any and all actions and causes of action, judgments, executions, suits, debts, claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, damages and expenses of any and every character, known or unknown, direct and/or indirect, at law or in equity, of whatsoever kind or nature, for or because of any matter or things done, omitted or suffered to be done by any of the Released Parties prior to and including the effectiveness of this Amendment, and in any way directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way connected to the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents (collectively, the “ Released Matters ”). Each Credit Party acknowledges that the agreements in this paragraph are intended to be in full satisfaction of all or any alleged injuries or damages arising in connection with the Released Matters.

Each Credit Party hereby waives the provisions of any statute or doctrine to the effect that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Credit Party hereby waives the provisions of any statute that prevents a general release from extending to claims unknown by the releasing party, including Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

Each Credit Party acknowledges and understands the rights and benefits conferred by such a statute or doctrine and the risks associated with waiver thereof, and after receiving advice of counsel, hereby consciously and voluntarily waives, relinquishes and releases any and all rights and benefits available thereunder, insofar as they apply, or may be construed to apply, to each release set forth herein or contemplated hereby. In so doing, each Credit Party expressly acknowledges and understands that it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those that it now believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of the disputes, claims and other matters released herein, but expressly agrees that it has taken these facts and possibilities into account in electing to make and to enter into this release, and that the releases given herein shall be and remain in effect

as full and complete releases notwithstanding the discovery or existence of any such additional or different facts or possibilities.

This release may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and/or as a cross-complaint or counterclaim against any action, suit, or other proceeding that may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of this release. Each Credit Party acknowledges that the release contained herein constitutes a material inducement to Agent and each of the Lenders to enter into this Amendment and that Agent and those Lenders would not have done so but for Agent’s and each Lender’s expectation that such release is valid and enforceable in all events.

Section 4.3      Covenant Not to Sue . Each Credit Party, on behalf of itself and its successors, assigns, and other legal representatives, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Released Party that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Released Party on the basis of any Released Matter. If any Credit Party or any of its successors, assigns or other legal representatives violates the foregoing covenant, such Credit Party, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Released Party may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by any Released Party as a result of such violation.

Section 4.4      Loan Documents Unaffected . Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and be unaffected hereby. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Amendment constitutes a “ Loan Document ” under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

(c)      represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that all representations and warranties made by Guarantor and contained in this Amendment or any other Loan Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of this Amendment to the same extent as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any thereof expressly relate to an earlier date; and

(d)      acknowledges and agrees that (i) notwithstanding the conditions to effectiveness set forth in this Amendment, Guarantor’s consent to this Amendment is not required under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or as a matter of law, and (ii) nothing in the Credit Agreement, this Amendment or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to require the consent of Guarantor to any future amendments

to, modifications of, consents under, or forbearances or waivers with regard to, the Credit Agreement.

Section 4.6      Costs, Expenses and Taxes .    Borrowers agree to pay on demand all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of this Amendment and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, including the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising Agent as to its rights and responsibilities hereunder and thereunder.

In addition, Borrowers shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of this Amendment and any other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to save Agent harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes.

rights and remedies of Agent or Lenders under the Credit Agreement, any Loan Document or applicable law. In addition, Agent and Lenders shall have the right to waive any condition or conditions set forth in this Amendment, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, in their sole discretion, and any such waiver shall not prejudice, waive or reduce any other right or remedy that Agent or Lenders may have against any Credit Party.

Section 4.10      Reaffirmation .

Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that each of the Loan Documents remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and reaffirmed. The execution of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Agent or any Lender, constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents or serve to effect a novation of the Obligations. Each Credit Party acknowledges that all references in the Credit Agreement to the “Agreement” or the “Credit Agreement” shall mean the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and all references in the Loan Documents to the “Credit Agreement” shall mean the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.
