14.Miscellaneous.

(a)Payments to Resigning Parties. The Borrower shall pay to the Resigning Parties, on or prior to the date hereof, any and all outstanding fees, costs and other expenses incurred by each of the Resigning Parties in connection with performing its role as Facility Agent, Arranger or Security Trustee, as applicable, under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent required in accordance with Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement. Without in any way limiting the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, the Borrower shall be liable for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (provided however that the Borrower shall not be liable for the legal fees of outside counsel retained by ABN USA in connection with this Agreement, which shall be borne by ABN USA) incurred by ABN USA as Resigning Facility Agent or as Resigning Security Trustee in connection with this Agreement and in connection with any action taken from time to time as contemplated hereunder, and, the Borrower shall promptly pay ABN USA, as Resigning Facility Agent or as Resigning Security Trustee, as applicable, upon demand therefore. Any amounts owed to ABN USA as Resigning Facility Agent or as Resigning Security Trustee shall constitute “Obligations” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be entitled to the priority currently afforded thereto by the terms of the Credit Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that neither ABN USA (in its capacity as Resigning Facility Agent or as Resigning Security Trustee) nor any of its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to share, rebate, disgorge or refund any fees or expense reimbursement it has received or is entitled to receive under the Loan Documents (including under this Agreement). After the Resigning Parties shall have received in full and in cash all costs, fees, expenses and any other obligations due and outstanding under the Fee Letters (as defined in the Credit Agreement prior to giving effect to this Agreement) through and including the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that no further fees or compensation shall be due and payable under the Fee Letters (as defined in the Credit Agreement prior to giving effect to this Agreement).

(b)Representations and Warranties of the Borrower and the other Security Parties. In order to induce the Incremental Lenders party hereto to enter into this Agreement, to make the Loans pursuant hereto and to amend the Credit Agreement in the manner provided herein, the Borrower and each other Security Party hereby represents and warrants that:

102029966.7

(i)as of the date hereof, Schedule II hereto contains a true, correct and complete list of each Security Document as of the date hereof, together with all amendments, supplements, waivers and consents thereto;

(ii)except as expressly modified, amended or waived by this Agreement, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and/or the other documents entered into in connection herewith, the representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit Agreement and in each other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all material respects in the case of representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all respects in the case of representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of such earlier date);

(iii)both before and after giving effect to this Agreement, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iv)this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Security Party party hereto and each of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against each Security Party in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(c)Representations of the Consenting Lenders. Each of the Lenders party hereto hereby represents and warrants that it is duly authorized to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and that such execution is not prohibited by law.

(d)Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(e)Continuing Effect; No Other Waivers or Amendments. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not constitute an amendment to or waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents and shall not be construed as a consent to any action on the part of the Borrower, or any other subsidiary of the Borrower that would require an amendment, waiver or consent of any of the Facility Agent, the Security Trustee or any Finance Party. Except as expressly modified, amended or waived by this

102029966.7

Agreement, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and/or the other documents entered into in connection herewith, the provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. After the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, as set forth in Section 10.06 of the Credit Agreement, the provisions of Article 11 of the Credit Agreement (as they exist on the date hereof and without giving effect to any amendment, waiver or other future modification thereto that is in any manner adverse to the Resigning Parties or their subagents) shall inure to the benefit of the Resigning Parties (and, as and to the extent provided therein, their sub-agents) as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while it was Facility Agent, Arranger or Security Trustee, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and it is understood and agreed that the Successor Party (a) shall have no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any actions taken or failures to take action (including without limitation any matters relating to payments, computations and accruals) for the period prior to the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date and (b) shall receive all of the benefits, indemnifications and exculpations provided for in the Credit Agreement (including without limitation under the provisions of Article 10) that are stated therein to apply to the Facility Agent, Arranger or Security Trustee, as applicable, from and after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date; it being understood and agreed that none of the Resigning Parties nor any of their Affiliates, officers, directors, trustees, employees, shareholders, members, attorneys, and other advisors, agents, representatives and controlling persons (collectively, the “Related Parties”) shall have any liability (express or implied) by operation of preceding clauses (a) and (b) (except to the extent arising from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Resigning Parties and their Related Parties, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). The Resigning Parties shall retain all claims and rights to indemnification under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents for acts, omissions, events or circumstances occurring or existing in their capacity as Facility Agent, Arranger or Security Trustee, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(f)Release. Except to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision to have resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of a Resigning Party, the Borrower and each other Obligor hereby release any and all claims against the Resigning Parties, and their respective subagents and affiliates, arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of the Credit Agreement or any of their respective performances of their respective duties under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, other than, any surviving obligations under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents and claims relating to rights and obligations preserved by, created by, or otherwise arising out of this Agreement.

(g)Loan Documents. The parties hereto hereby agree that each of this Agreement and the Facility Agent Fee Letter shall constitute a Loan Document and that each reference to a Loan Document in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to include this Agreement and the Facility Agent Fee Letter, and the obligations of the Security Parties under the foregoing shall constitute Obligations secured equally and ratably by the Collateral.
