Exception when turning on Bing background imagery

[kay_D]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Start JOSM
2. load any area
3. turn on Bing background imagery

What is the expected result?
Bing background imagery appears as a background layer - worked always before.

What happens instead?
See exception below. Happens since I updated to current latest version.
