2.2 Section 2.12(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
(a) The Borrowers agree to pay, jointly and severally, to the Administrative Agent a commitment fee for the account of each Lender, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the amount of the undrawn portion of the Commitment (determined daily) of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Maturity Date. Commitment fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable in arrears on the fifteenth day following such last day and on the Maturity Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any commitment fees accrued through and payable on the Maturity Date shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and the last day of each period but excluding the Maturity Date).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of any commitment fee that is payable during the period from December 31, 2025 to but excluding the Capitalized Interest End Date will be paid either (i) in cash on each date any such commitment fee is due or (ii) in kind on each date any such commitment fee is due by automatically adding the applicable commitment fee amount to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on a pro rata basis on each date for which the commitment fee is due and payable under this Section 2.12(a); provided that, to elect to pay any commitment fee in cash as provided in this Section 2.12(a), the Borrower Representative shall, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, two Business Days prior to the next succeeding due date for such commitment fee, notify the Administrative Agent in writing that the commitment fee payable on the next succeeding due date will be paid in cash pursuant to this Section 2.12(a). If the Borrower Representative does not deliver notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to pay any commitment fee in cash under the proviso above to this paragraph, such commitment fee payable on the next succeeding due date shall be payable in kind as provided in this paragraph. Such increased principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest as provided in this Agreement and shall be considered outstanding and advanced for all purposes (except as provided in the proviso to this sentence) of this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculating Credit Exposure and Unfunded Commitments of the Lenders; provided that the portion of the increased principal amount of the Loans resulting from the payment in kind of any commitment fees shall not be considered outstanding for purposes of calculating the commitment fee pursuant to the preceding paragraph.
2.3 Section 2.13(g) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:
(g) Notwithstanding paragraph (e) of this Section, from the date any Loan is made through but not including the Capitalized Interest End Date, interest on each Loan will accrue during such period and will be paid either (i) as provided in paragraph (e) or (ii) in kind by automatically adding the applicable interest amount to the outstanding principal amount of the related Loan on each date for which interest is due and payable hereunder; provided that, to elect to pay interest in cash as provided in this paragraph (g), the Borrower Representative shall, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, two Business Days prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, notify the Administrative Agent in writing that accrued interest on each Loan payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date will be paid in cash pursuant to paragraph (e); provided further that, if at any time a Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole and absolute discretion that interest shall no longer be payable in kind and, instead, shall be payable in cash on the immediately next Interest Payment Date and all succeeding Interest Payment Dates. If the Borrower Representative does not deliver notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to pay accrued interest on each Loan in cash under the proviso above to this paragraph (g), such accrued interest payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date shall be payable in kind as provided in this paragraph (g). Such increased principal amounts resulting from such capitalizing interest shall bear interest as provided in this Agreement and shall be considered outstanding and advanced for all purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculating Credit Exposure and Unfunded Commitments of the Lenders.
2.4 Section 5.18(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

At the time an Approved Eligible Project is added to the Borrowing Base and at all times thereafter until the full and final payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations, the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Borrower for such Borrowing Base Project, shall establish and maintain a deposit account with the Administrative Agent designated as such Borrower’s revenue account (each a “Revenue Account”) for such Borrowing Base Project. The Borrowers shall cause all rental and other income under a Hangar Lease attributable to a Borrowing Base Project to be deposited into the applicable Revenue Account by the 15th day of each month.

The Borrower Representative shall deliver a written requisition to the Administrative Agent (upon which the Administrative Agent may conclusively rely without making any independent investigation) requesting the transfers contemplated by this Section 5.18(a)(C) and certifying that the conditions contained herein have been met; (D) fourth, transferred by the Administrative Agent to the SH Capital II LLC Debt Service Account and applied by the Administrative Agent to pay principal and interest then due on the Loans (and, without duplication, on the corresponding Notes), (E) fifth, applied by the Administrative Agent to replenish the SH Capital II LLC Debt Service Reserve Fund Account to an amount equal to the Debt Service Reserve Fund Requirement, (F) sixth, applied by the Administrative Agent to replenish the SH Capital II LLC Ramp Up Reserve Fund Account to an amount equal to the Ramp Up Reserve Requirement, and (G) seventh, upon the written request of the Borrower Representative, transferred by the Administrative Agent to a Borrower for use in accordance with Section 6.17 (funds released pursuant to this Section 5.18(a)(G) are referred to herein as “Surplus Funds”); provided that, to request any transfer pursuant to this Section 5.18(a)(G), the Borrower Representative shall deliver an executed certificate to the Administrative Agent, in substantially the form of Exhibit H, certifying that the Surplus Funds Release Conditions have been satisfied, that no Default has occurred and is continuing and that such contemplated release of Surplus Funds in accordance with such certificate shall not cause the Borrowers to violate Section 6.10(a) after giving effect to such release for the four quarters then ended; provided further that, the Borrower Representative may not request the transfer of Surplus Funds more than one (1) time in any one-month period.
2.5 Article V of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add the following section immediately after Section 5.20 therein:
