If the Lead Borrower has made an LCA Election for

any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test, or basket with respect to any transaction permitted hereunder (each, a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof or the making of any Investment) have been consummated.

Section 1.12 Rates. The interest rate on LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans (when determined by reference to clause (b) of the definition of Base Rate) may be determined by reference to LIBOR, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”), the administrator of the London interbank offered rate, and the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of IBA, announced in public statements (the “Announcements”) that the final publication or representativeness date for the London interbank offered rate for Dollars for: (a) 1-week and 2-month tenor settings will be December 31, 2021 and (b) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenor settings will be June 30, 2023. No successor administrator for IBA was identified in such Announcements. As a result, it is possible that immediately after such dates, the London interbank offered rate for such tenors may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed a representative reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans (when determined by reference to clause (b) of the definition of Base Rate). There is no assurance that the dates set forth in the Announcements will not change or that IBA or the FCA will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition or characteristics of any London interbank offered rate. Public and private sector industry initiatives have been and continue, as of the date hereof, to be underway to implement new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate or any other then-current Benchmark is no longer available or in certain other circumstances set forth in Section 3.09, such Section 3.09 provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. Agent will notify the Lead Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.09, of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans (when determined by reference to clause (b) of the definition of Base Rate) is based. However, Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (i) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBOR” or with respect to any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any then-current Benchmark or any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.09, will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, LIBOR or any other Benchmark, or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (ii) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Agent and its Affiliates

or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of a Benchmark, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto and such transactions may be adverse to a Borrower. Agent may select information sources or services in its discretion to ascertain any Benchmark, any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to any Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Section 1.13 Quebec Interpretation. For all purposes pursuant to which the interpretation or construction of this Agreement may be subject to the laws of the Province of Québec or a court or tribunal exercising jurisdiction in the Province of Québec, (a) “personal property” shall include “movable property”, (b) “real property” shall include “immovable property”, (c) “tangible property” shall include “corporeal property”, (d) “intangible property” shall include “incorporeal property”, (e) “security interest”, “mortgage” and “lien” shall include a “hypothec”, “prior claim” and a “resolutory clause”, (f) all references to “perfection” of or “perfected” liens or security interest shall include a reference to an “opposable” or “set up” lien or security interest as against third parties, (g) any “right of offset”, “right of setoff” or similar expression shall include a “right of compensation”, (h) “goods” shall include “corporeal movable property” other than chattel paper, documents of title, instruments, money and securities, (i) an “agent” shall include a “mandatary”, (j) “construction liens” or “materialmen’s, repairman’s, construction contractors’, mechanics’ and other like Liens” shall include “legal hypothecs”, (k) “joint and several” shall include “solidary”, (l) “gross negligence or willful misconduct” shall be deemed to be “intentional or gross fault”, (m) “beneficial ownership” shall include “ownership on behalf of another as mandatary”, (n) “easement” shall include “servitude”, (o) “priority” shall include “prior claim”, (p) “survey” shall include “certificate of location and plan”, (q) “accounts” shall include “claims” and “monetary claims”, (r) “fee simple title” shall include “absolute ownership”, (s) “leasehold interest” shall include “a valid lease” and (t) any reference to a PPSA financing statement, financing change statement or like document shall include the equivalent filing under the Civil Code. The parties hereto confirm that it is their wish that this Agreement and any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated herein be drawn up in the English language only (except if another language is required under any applicable Law) and that all other documents contemplated thereunder or relating thereto, including notices, may also be drawn up in the English language only. Les parties aux présentes confirment que c’est leur volonté que cette convention et les autres documents de crédit soient rédigés en langue anglaise seulement et que tous les documents, y compris tous avis, envisagés par cette convention et les autres documents peuvent être rédigés en langue anglaise seulement (sauf si une autre langue est requise en vertu d’une loi applicable).

(vii) subject to all of the other provisions of this Agreement, Revolving Loans to the Borrowers that are repaid may be reborrowed prior to the Termination Date;

(viii) no new Credit Extensions (other than Permitted Overadvances) shall be made to the Borrowers after the Termination Date; and

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Reserves shall not duplicate eligibility criteria contained in the definition of Eligible Inventory or reserves or criteria deducted in computing the NOLV Percentage of Eligible Inventory. Any of the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent may (in the exercise of its reasonable discretion) refrain from implementing certain Reserves relating to Acquired Accounts (CM) and Acquired Inventory (CM) until such time as the Administrative Agent has completed its diligence with respect to such Acquired Borrowing Base Assets.

Section 2.03 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Revolving Loans.

(a) Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans of one Class of one Type to the other Type, and each continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be made upon the Lead Borrower’s irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent in the form of a Committed Loan Notice, (which may be delivered through Agent’s electronic platform or portal). Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) (i) other than with respect to the initial Borrowing of Revolving Loans on the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of LIBOR Loans or any conversion of Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans and (ii) one Business Day before the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Lead Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans of one Class from one Type to the other Type, or a continuation of LIBOR Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Lead Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable LIBOR Loans. If the Lead Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of LIBOR Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Loan, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Lead Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation described in Section 2.03(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is to be

102

made on the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Lead Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by (i) crediting the Loan Disbursement Account with the amount of such funds or (ii) if approved by Administrative Agent in writing, wire transfer of such funds in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Lead Borrower.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBOR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan unless the Borrowers pay the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders may require that no Revolving Loans may be converted to or continued as LIBOR Loans.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBOR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of LIBOR by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than 15 Interest Periods in effect with respect to Revolving Loans.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, all Revolving Loans shall be Tranche A-1 Loans until the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans equals the lesser of Incremental Availability or the then Tranche A-1 Commitments. If any Tranche A-1 Loan is prepaid in part pursuant to Section 2.08, any Revolving Loans thereafter requested shall be Tranche A-1 Loans until the maximum principal amount of Tranche A-1 Loans outstanding equals the lesser of Incremental Availability or Tranche A-1 Commitments and thereafter all Revolving Loans shall be Tranche A Loans.

(h) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may, with the Borrowers’ consent, assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with clause (b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrowers severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the

103

Borrowers, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(h) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within two Business Days after the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon accruing from the date on which the Administrative Agent made the funds available to the Borrowers at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans, on demand, from the Borrowers. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrowers’ obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.03(h) shall cease.

Section 2.04 Overadvances.

(a) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Revolving Loan (including, without limitation, any Swingline Loan) or to provide any Letter of Credit if an Overadvance would result.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.01(a), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, make Permitted Overadvances without the consent of the Lenders and each Lender shall be bound thereby. Any Permitted Overadvances shall constitute Swingline Loans. The making of a Permitted Overadvance is for the benefit of the Borrowers and shall constitute a Loan and an Obligation. The making of any such Permitted Overadvance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make or permit any Permitted Overadvance on any other occasion or to permit such Permitted Overadvances to remain outstanding, nor shall the making of any such Permitted Overadvance modify or abrogate the Borrowers’ obligations under Sections 2.09(a) and (b) hereof.

(c) The making by the Administrative Agent of a Permitted Overadvance shall not modify or abrogate any of the provisions of Section 2.06 regarding the Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations with respect to Letter of Credit Disbursements.

Section 2.05 Swingline Loans.

(a) The Swingline Lender is authorized by the Lenders to, and shall make, Swingline Loans at any time (subject to Section 2.05(b)) to the Borrowers up to the amount of the sum of (i) the Swingline Loan Sublimit, upon receipt of a Committed Loan Notice from the Lead Borrower by the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender (which notice, at the Swingline Lender’s discretion, may be submitted prior to 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which such Swingline Loan is requested), plus (ii) any Permitted Overadvances. Swingline Loans shall be Base Rate Loans and shall be subject to periodic settlement with the Lenders under Section 2.16 below. The proceeds of each Swingline Loan made in accordance with this Agreement shall be credited by the Swingline Lender to the Loan Disbursement Account.

104

(b) The Lead Borrower’s request for a Swingline Loan shall be deemed a representation that the applicable conditions for borrowing under Section 4.02 are satisfied (unless such conditions have been waived). If the conditions for borrowing under Section 4.02 cannot in fact be fulfilled, (x) the Lead Borrower shall give immediate notice (a “Noncompliance Notice”) thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with a copy of the Noncompliance Notice, and (y) the Required Lenders may direct the Swingline Lender to, and the Swingline Lender thereupon shall, cease making Swingline Loans (other than Permitted Overadvances) until such conditions can be satisfied or are waived in accordance with Section 10.01. Unless the Required Lenders so direct the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may, but is not obligated to, continue to make Swingline Loans commencing one Business Day after the Noncompliance Notice is furnished to the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Swingline Loans (other than Permitted Overadvances) shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) if the Tranche A Credit Extensions and/or the aggregate outstanding amount of the Credit Extensions and Swingline Loans would exceed the limitations set forth in Section 2.01 and Section 2.05(a). Immediately upon the issuance of any Swingline Loan by the Swingline Lender, and without any further action on the part of the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have sold to each Tranche A Lender, and each Tranche A Lender shall be deemed unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage, in such Swingline Loan. Upon any change in the Tranche A Commitments pursuant to Section 2.17 of this Agreement, it is hereby agreed that with respect to all Swingline Loans outstanding, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations hereby created to reflect the new Tranche A Commitment Percentages of the assigning and assignee Tranche A Lenders and the Additional Lenders, if applicable.

Section 2.06 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of Borrowers made in accordance herewith, and prior to the Maturity Date, Issuing Bank agrees to issue a requested Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit for the account of Lead Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary. By submitting a request to Issuing Bank for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Issuing Bank issue the requested Letter of Credit. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be (i) irrevocable and made in writing by a Responsible Officer, (ii) delivered to Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank via telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank and reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, or extension, and (iii) subject to Issuing Bank’s authentication procedures with results satisfactory to Issuing Bank. Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (B) the date of issuance, amendment, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (C) the proposed expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) the name and address of the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (E) such other information (including, the conditions to drawing, and, in the case of an amendment or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, or extend such Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank may request or require, to the extent that such requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that Issuing Bank generally requests for Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. Issuing Bank’s records of the content of any such request will be conclusive.

105

(b) Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the requested issuance (i) the aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings shall exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (ii) the Tranche A Credit Extensions and/or the aggregate Credit Extensions (including Swingline Loans) would exceed the limitations set forth in Section 2.01. If the Tranche A Commitments are reduced to an amount less than the Letter of Credit Sublimit, then the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be reduced to an amount equal to (or, at Lead Borrower’s option, less than) the Tranche A Commitments. If the Tranche A Commitments are reduced to an amount less than the Letter of Credit Sublimit, then the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be reduced to an amount equal to (or, at Lead Borrower’s option, less than) the Tranche A Commitments.

(c) In the event there is a Defaulting Lender as of the date of any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue or arrange for such Letter of Credit to the extent (i) the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit may not be reallocated pursuant to Section 2.24(a), or (ii) Issuing Bank has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and Borrowers to eliminate Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in such Letter of Credit of the Defaulting Lender, which arrangements may include Borrowers cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with Section 2.24(a). Additionally, Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue or extend a Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or restrain Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally, or (C) if amounts demanded to be paid under any Letter of Credit will not or may not be in United States Dollars (provided that such Letter of Credit may be issued in Canadian Dollars if approved by the applicable Issuing Bank).

(d) Any Issuing Bank (other than Xxxxx Fargo or any of its Affiliates) shall notify Administrative Agent in writing no later than the Business Day prior to the Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues any Letter of Credit. In addition, each Issuing Bank (other than Xxxxx Fargo or any of its Affiliates) shall, on the first Business Day of each week, submit to Administrative Agent a report detailing the daily undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the prior calendar week. The Borrowers, the Lenders, and each Issuing Bank hereby acknowledge and agree that all Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement on and after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date with the same effect as if such Existing Letters of Credit were issued by Issuing Bank at the request of the Lead Borrower on the Fifth Restatement Effective Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Issuing Bank, including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars (or, if approved by the applicable Issuing Bank,

106

Canadian Dollars). If Issuing Bank makes a payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement on the Business Day such Letter of Credit Disbursement is made, which payment shall be in the currency in which such Letter of Credit Disbursement was made or, if permitted by the applicable Issuing Bank, in the Dollar Equivalent thereof, and, in the absence of such payment, the amount of the Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 4) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. If a Letter of Credit Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder, Borrowers’ obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement to Issuing Bank shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Revolving Loan. Promptly following receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment from Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment (in the currency in which it was received) to Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.06(e) to reimburse Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.

(e) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.06(d), each Tranche A Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.06(d) on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Tranche A Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit) and without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or any Lenders, Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Tranche A Lender, and each Tranche A Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Bank, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit, and each such Tranche A Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Tranche A Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit, with the amount of such payment being the Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit Disbursement. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Tranche A Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Tranche A Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrowers on the date due as provided in Section 2.06(d), or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to Borrowers for any reason, with the amount of such payment being the Dollar Equivalent of such amount. Each Tranche A Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of its respective Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.06(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 4. If any such Tranche A Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Tranche A Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Tranche A Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of Issuing Bank) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Tranche A Lender together with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans until paid in full.

107

(f) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each Lender (including Swingline Lender) (including the branches, Affiliates, and correspondents of each Issuing Bank) and each such Person’s respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, including Issuing Bank, a “Letter of Credit Related Person”) (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), which may be incurred by or awarded against any such Letter of Credit Related Person (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 3) (the “Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs”), and which arise out of or in connection with, or as a result of:

(i) any Letter of Credit or any pre-advice of its issuance;

(ii) any transfer, sale, delivery, surrender or endorsement (or lack thereof) of any Drawing Document at any time(s) held by any such Letter of Credit Related Person in connection with any Letter of Credit;

(iii) any action or proceeding arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit (whether administrative, judicial or in connection with arbitration), including any action or proceeding to compel or restrain any presentation or payment under any Letter of Credit, or for the wrongful dishonor of, or honoring a presentation under, any Letter of Credit;

(iv) any independent undertakings issued by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit;

(v) any unauthorized instruction or request made to Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit or requested Letter of Credit, or any error, omission, interruption or delay in such instruction or request, whether transmitted by mail, courier, electronic transmission, SWIFT, or any other telecommunication including communications through a correspondent;

(vi) an adviser, confirmer or other nominated person seeking to be reimbursed, indemnified or compensated;

(vii) any third party seeking to enforce the rights of an applicant, beneficiary, nominated person, transferee, assignee of Letter of Credit proceeds or holder of an instrument or document;

(viii) the fraud, forgery or illegal action of parties other than the Letter of Credit Related Person;

108

(ix) any prohibition on payment or delay in payment of any amount payable by Issuing Bank to a beneficiary or transferee beneficiary of a Letter of Credit arising out of Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws, or Sanctions;

(x) any payment, non-payment or delay in payment of any amount payable by Issuing Bank to the appropriate party of a Letter of Credit arising out of a requirement for U.S. Food and Drug Administration or any third party approval of goods shipped in connection with a Letter of Credit;

(xi) Issuing Bank’s performance of the obligations of a confirming institution or entity that wrongfully dishonors a confirmation;

(xii) any foreign language translation provided to Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit;

(xiii) any foreign law or usage as it relates to Issuing Bank’s issuance of a Letter of Credit in support of a foreign guaranty including the expiration of such guaranty after the related Letter of Credit expiration date and any resulting drawing paid by Issuing Bank in connection therewith; or

(xiv) the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto governmental or regulatory authority or cause or event beyond the control of the Letter of Credit Related Person;

provided, that such indemnity shall not be available to any Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnification under clauses (i) through (xiii) above to the extent that such Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted directly from the gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of such Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity. Borrowers hereby agree to pay the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity within ten Business Days after demand therefor all amounts owing under this Section 2.06(f). If and to the extent that the obligations of Borrowers under this Section 2.06(f) are unenforceable for any reason, Borrowers agree to make the maximum contribution to the Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs permissible under applicable law. This indemnification provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and all Letters of Credit.

(g) The liability of Issuing Bank (or any other Letter of Credit Related Person) under, in connection with or arising out of any Letter of Credit (or pre-advice), regardless of the form or legal grounds of the action or proceeding, shall be limited to direct damages suffered by Borrowers that are caused directly by Issuing Bank’s gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct in (i) honoring a presentation under a Letter of Credit that on its face does not at least substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, (ii) failing to honor a presentation under a Letter of Credit that strictly complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, or (iii) retaining Drawing Documents presented under a Letter of Credit. Borrowers’ aggregate remedies against Issuing Bank and any Letter of Credit Related Person for wrongfully honoring a presentation under any Letter of Credit or wrongfully retaining honored Drawing Documents shall in no event exceed the aggregate amount paid by Borrowers to Issuing

109

Bank in respect of the honored presentation in connection with such Letter of Credit under Section 2.06(d), plus interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. Borrowers shall take action to avoid and mitigate the amount of any damages claimed against Issuing Bank or any other Letter of Credit Related Person, including by enforcing its rights against the beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit.

(h) Borrowers are responsible for the final text of the Letter of Credit as issued by Issuing Bank, irrespective of any assistance Issuing Bank may provide such as drafting or recommending text or by Issuing Bank’s use or refusal to use text submitted by Borrowers. Borrowers understand that the final form of any Letter of Credit may be subject to such revisions and changes as are deemed necessary or appropriate by Issuing Bank, and Borrowers hereby consent to such revisions and changes not materially different from the application executed in connection therewith. Borrowers are solely responsible for the suitability of the Letter of Credit for Borrowers’ purposes. If Borrowers request Issuing Bank to issue a Letter of Credit for an affiliated or unaffiliated third party (an “Account Party”), (i) such Account Party shall have no rights against Issuing Bank; (ii) Borrowers shall be responsible for the application and obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) communications (including notices) related to the respective Letter of Credit shall be among Issuing Bank and Borrowers. Borrowers will examine the copy of the Letter of Credit and any other documents sent by Issuing Bank in connection therewith and shall promptly notify Issuing Bank (not later than three Business Days following Borrowers’ receipt of documents from Issuing Bank) of any non-compliance with Borrowers’ instructions and of any discrepancy in any document under any presentment or other irregularity.

(i) Borrowers’ reimbursement and payment obligations under this Section 2.06 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including:

(i) any lack of validity, enforceability or legal effect of any Letter of Credit, any Issuer Document, this Agreement, or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein or herein;

(ii) payment against presentation of any draft, demand or claim for payment under any Drawing Document that does not comply in whole or in part with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit or which proves to be fraudulent, forged or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or which is signed, issued or presented by a Person or a transferee of such Person purporting to be a successor or transferee of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit;

(iii) Issuing Bank or any of its branches or Affiliates being the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit;

(iv) Issuing Bank or any correspondent honoring a drawing against a Drawing Document up to the amount available under any Letter of Credit even if such Drawing Document claims an amount in excess of the amount available under the Letter of Credit;

110

(v) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee beneficiary, any assignee of proceeds, Issuing Bank or any other Person;

(vi) Issuing Bank or any correspondent honoring a drawing upon receipt of an electronic presentation under a Letter of Credit requiring the same, regardless of whether the original Drawing Documents arrive at Issuing Bank’s counters or are different from the electronic presentation;

(vii) any other event, circumstance or conduct whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing that might, but for this Section 2.06(i), constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, any Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ reimbursement and other payment obligations and liabilities, arising under, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit, whether against Issuing Bank, the beneficiary or any other Person; or

(viii) the fact that any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, that subject to Section 2.06(g) above, the foregoing shall not release Issuing Bank from such liability to Borrowers as may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction against Issuing Bank following reimbursement or payment of the obligations and liabilities, including reimbursement and other payment obligations, of Borrowers to Issuing Bank arising under, or in connection with, this Section 2.06 or any Letter of Credit.

(j) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Issuing Bank and each other Letter of Credit Related Person (if applicable) shall not be responsible to Borrowers for, and Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against Borrowers and the obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit shall not be impaired by:

(i) honor of a presentation under any Letter of Credit that on its face substantially complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, even if the Letter of Credit requires strict compliance by the beneficiary;

(ii) honor of a presentation of any Drawing Document that appears on its face to have been signed, presented or issued (A) by any purported successor or transferee of any beneficiary or other Person required to sign, present or issue such Drawing Document or (B) under a new name of the beneficiary;

(iii) acceptance as a draft of any written or electronic demand or request for payment under a Letter of Credit, even if nonnegotiable or not in the form of a draft or notwithstanding any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit;

(iv) the identity or authority of any presenter or signer of any Drawing Document or the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Drawing Document (other than Issuing Bank’s determination that such Drawing Document appears on its face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit);

111

(v) acting upon any instruction or request relative to a Letter of Credit or requested Letter of Credit that Issuing Bank in good faith believes to have been given by a Person authorized to give such instruction or request;

(vi) any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, advice or document (regardless of how sent or transmitted) or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation or any delay in giving or failing to give notice to any Borrower;

(vii) any acts, omissions or fraud by, or the insolvency of, any beneficiary, any nominated person or entity or any other Person or any breach of contract between any beneficiary and any Borrower or any of the parties to the underlying transaction to which the Letter of Credit relates;

(viii) assertion or waiver of any provision of the ISP or UCP that primarily benefits an issuer of a letter of credit, including any requirement that any Drawing Document be presented to it at a particular hour or place;

(ix) payment to any presenting bank (designated or permitted by the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit) claiming that it rightfully honored or is entitled to reimbursement or indemnity under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to it;

(x) acting or failing to act as required or permitted under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to where Issuing Bank has issued, confirmed, advised or negotiated such Letter of Credit, as the case may be;

(xi) honor of a presentation after the expiration date of any Letter of Credit notwithstanding that a presentation was made prior to such expiration date and dishonored by Issuing Bank if subsequently Issuing Bank or any court or other finder of fact determines such presentation should have been honored;

(xii) dishonor of any presentation that does not strictly comply or that is fraudulent, forged or otherwise not entitled to honor; or

(xiii) honor of a presentation that is subsequently determined by Issuing Bank to have been made in violation of international, federal, state or local restrictions on the transaction of business with certain prohibited Persons.

(k) Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank all costs, fees, charges, expenses and Fronting Fee relating to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, all in accordance with Section 2.11.

(l) If by reason of (x) any Change in Law, or (y) compliance by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, or any Lender with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Board of Governors as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

112

(i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued or caused to be issued hereunder or hereby, or any Loans or obligations to make Loans hereunder or hereby, or

(ii) there shall be imposed on the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender any other condition regarding any Letter of Credit, Loans, or obligations to make Loans hereunder,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender of issuing, making, participating in, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof, then, and in any such case, Administrative Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify the Lead Borrower, and Borrowers shall pay within 30 days after written demand therefor, such amounts as Administrative Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder; provided, that (A) Borrowers shall not be required to provide any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.06(l) for any such amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date on which the demand for payment of such amounts is first made to Borrowers, and (B) if an event or circumstance giving rise to such amounts is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The determination by Administrative Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.06(l), as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(m) Each Standby Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of the date which is (i) one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or such other longer period of time as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree) (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) unless cash collateralized or otherwise credit supported to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (in which case, the expiry may extend no longer than twelve months after the Maturity Date), five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that each Standby Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Lead Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically (unless the Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed) for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, unless cash collateralized or otherwise credit supported to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (in which case, the expiry may extend no longer than twelve months after the Maturity Date)). Borrowers understand and agree that Issuing Bank is not required to extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit for any reason. With respect to any Letter of Credit containing an “automatic amendment” to extend the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, Issuing Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may give notice of non-extension of such Letter of Credit and, if Borrowers do not at any time want the then current expiration date of such Letter of Credit to be extended, Borrowers will so notify Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank at least 30 calendar days before

113

Issuing Bank is required to notify the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any advising bank of such non-extension pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit. Each Commercial Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of the date which is (i) 120 days after the date of the issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit (or such other period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank) and (ii) unless cash collateralized or otherwise credit supported to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (in which case, the expiry may extend no longer 120 days after the Maturity Date), five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

(n) If any Specified Default shall occur and be continuing, Excess Availability is less than zero, or the Termination Date shall occur, then on the Business Day that the Lead Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent (which notice may be given at the election of the Administrative Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the applicable Borrowers shall immediately deposit in the applicable Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 101.5% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings owing by such Borrowers as of such date, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such Cash Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (at the request of the Lead Borrower and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense), such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for payments on account of drawings under Letters of Credit for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, shall be applied to satisfy the other respective Obligations of the applicable Borrower. If the applicable Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence and continuance of a Specified Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned promptly to the respective Borrower but in no event later than two Business Days after all Specified Defaults have been cured or waived.

(o) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Issuing Bank and Borrowers when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit.

(p) Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have acted with due diligence and reasonable care if Issuing Bank’s conduct is in accordance with Standard Letter of Credit Practice or in accordance with this Agreement.

(q) In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Section 2.06 and any provision contained in any Issuer Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.06 shall control and govern.

(r) The provisions of this Section 2.06 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit that remain outstanding.

(s) At Borrowers’ costs and expense, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Issuing Bank such additional certificates, instruments and/or documents and take such additional action as may be reasonably requested by Issuing Bank to enable Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit pursuant to this Agreement and related Issuer Document, to protect, exercise and/or enforce Issuing Banks’ rights and interests under this Agreement or to give effect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Issuer Document. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints Issuing Bank as its attorney-in-fact and authorizes Issuing Bank, without notice to Borrowers, to execute and deliver ancillary documents and letters customary in the letter of credit business that may include but are not limited to advisements, indemnities, checks, bills of exchange and issuance documents. The power of attorney granted by the Borrowers is limited solely to such actions related to the issuance, confirmation or amendment of any Letter of Credit and to ancillary documents or letters customary in the letter of credit business. This appointment is coupled with an interest.

(t) The Lead Borrower may appoint Additional Issuing Banks by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days prior to the issuance of any Letters of Credit by such Additional Issuing Bank. Any Lender designated as an Additional Issuing Bank shall remain as such until the Lead Borrower gives written notice to the Administrative Agent that such Lender is no longer an Additional Issuing Bank. After the removal of an Additional Issuing Bank hereunder, such Additional Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of such Additional Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such removal until no Letter of Credit Outstandings remain outstanding with respect to such Additional Issuing Bank, but shall not be required or permitted to issue additional Letters of Credit, unless such Additional Issuing Bank has been reappointed in accordance with the terms hereof.

(u) For the avoidance of doubt, each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable with respect to each Letter of Credit issued (or deemed issued) hereunder (together with all Letter of Credit Outstandings and all associated fees, charges, and indemnities associated with such Letter of Credit), to the same extent as it would have been liable had such Letter of Credit been issued (or deemed issued) for its own account.

Section 2.07 Optional Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Upon at least two Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lead Borrower may, at any time, in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Tranche A Commitments. Each such reduction shall be in the principal amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each such reduction or termination shall (i) be applied ratably to the Tranche A Commitments of each Tranche A Lender and (ii) be irrevocable at the effective time of any

115

such termination or reduction. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for application as provided herein (i) at the effective time of any such termination (but not any partial reduction), all earned and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter and all Unused Fees accrued on the Tranche A Commitments so terminated, and (ii) at the effective time of any such reduction or termination, any amount by which the Tranche A Credit Extensions to the Borrowers outstanding on such date exceed the amount to which the Tranche A Commitments are to be reduced effective on such date.

(b) The Lead Borrower may reduce or terminate the Tranche A-1 Commitments at any time as long as immediately after giving effect to such reduction or termination, there are no Tranche A Credit Extensions outstanding. In the event that all of the Tranche A Commitments are terminated, the Lead Borrower shall contemporaneously therewith terminate all Tranche A-1 Commitments. Each reduction of the Tranche A-1 Commitments shall be in the principal amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for application as provided herein (i) at the effective time of any such termination (but not any partial reduction), all Unused Fees accrued on the Tranche A-1 Commitments so terminated, and (ii) at the effective time of any such reduction or termination, any amount by which the Tranche A-1 Credit Extensions to the Borrowers outstanding on such date exceed the amount to which the Tranche A-1 Commitments are to be reduced effective on such date.

(c) From time to time (but not more than two times after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date), the Lead Borrower may convert, all or a portion of the Tranche A-1 Commitments to Tranche A Commitments (and effect a repayment of Tranche A-1 Loans in connection therewith) (each such instance, a “Conversion”), so long as (i) the Lead Borrower shall have given not less than ten Business Days’ prior written notice of such Conversion to the Administrative Agent, which notice must set forth the amount of the Tranche A-1 Commitments which the Lead Borrower desires to convert to Tranche A Commitments and the date such Conversion is to be effective (and which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each Tranche A-1 Lender); (ii) no Default exists at the time such Conversion becomes effective or would result therefrom; (iii) Excess Availability on each of the 30 days immediately preceding the date such Conversion becomes effective, and on the day such Conversion becomes effective, calculated on a pro forma basis on each such day or date as if such Conversion shall have occurred, shall be greater than or equal to 15% of the Loan Cap (as determined on each such day or date); (iv) if Excess Availability on the day on which such Conversion is to become effective (and calculated on a pro forma basis on such day as if such Conversion shall have occurred) is less than 17.5% of the Loan Cap on such day, then the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the end of the Test Period shall equal or exceed 1.10 to 1.00; and (v) on the date such Conversion is to become effective, the Chief Financial Officer or other financial officer of the Lead Borrower shall have executed and delivered a certificate to the Administrative Agent demonstrating in reasonable detail the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent to such Conversion as set forth in this clause (c). Each Lender shall, within five Business Days after its receipt of any notice of Conversion referred to above, notify the Administrative Agent of its election to participate in such Conversion and any failure to so notify the Administrative Agent within such period shall constitute such Lender’s refusal to so participate. Any of the foregoing provisions of this clause (c) to the contrary notwithstanding, (A) each Conversion shall be offered pro rata to each Tranche A-1 Lender and shall be applied on a pro rata basis as

116

provided below; (B) no Tranche A-1 Lender shall be required to participate in any Conversion; (C) if any Tranche A-1 Lender refuses any requested Conversion, then that portion of such Tranche A-1 Lender’s Tranche A-1 Commitment as is equal to the amount which would have otherwise been converted in connection with such Conversion shall be terminated at the same time such Conversion is otherwise effected; (D) if any Tranche A-1 Lender refuses to participate in any requested Conversion, then the calculations of Excess Availability and Loan Cap for purposes of the conditions precedent to such Conversion as set forth in this paragraph shall be calculated on a pro forma basis giving effect to the reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments arising from the termination of such refusing Tranche A-1 Lender’s Tranche A-1 Commitment; (E) simultaneously with the effectiveness of any Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to amend Schedule I to this Agreement to reflect such Conversion and the corresponding adjustments to each Lender’s Commitments (without any further consent of any Loan Party or Secured Party); (F) the Lead Borrower may revoke any requested Conversion at any time before the same shall have been effected; (G) each Lender will cooperate with the Administrative Agent in effecting contemporaneously with effectiveness of any Conversion any applicable reallocation of its Commitments arising from such Conversion such that each Lender holds it Pro Rata Share of all Loans; and (H) the Loan Parties shall execute and deliver such documents, instruments, or agreements reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the Conversion (including, without limitation, any new notes requested by any of the Lenders and a ratification by any and all Loan Parties).

(d) In connection with any reduction in the Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche A-1 Commitments before the Maturity Date, if any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries owns any Margin Stock, Borrowers shall deliver to Agent an updated Form U-1 (with sufficient additional originals thereof for each Lender), duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers, together with such other documentation as Agent shall reasonably request, in order to enable Agent and the Lenders to comply with any of the requirements under Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. Nothing in the paragraph shall limit the terms of Sections 5.13(a) or 7.10.

Section 2.08 Optional Prepayment of Loans; Reimbursement of Lenders.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), the Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay without premium or penalty (and, in the case of Revolving Loans, without a reduction in the Commitments) outstanding Loans in whole or in part, (x) with respect to LIBOR Loans, upon at least one Business Day’s prior written, telex or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent, prior to 12:00 noon, and (y) with respect to Base Rate Loans, on the same Business Day as such notice is furnished to the Administrative Agent, prior to 12:00 noon, subject in each case to the following limitations:

(i) Subject to Section 2.09, all optional prepayments in respect of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for application (except as otherwise directed by the applicable Borrower), first, to the prepayment of outstanding Swingline Loans, second, to the prepayment of other outstanding Tranche A Loans (other than Swingline Loans) ratably in accordance with each Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage, third, to the prepayment of other outstanding Tranche A-1 Loans ratably in accordance with each Tranche A-1 Lender’s Tranche A-1 Commitment Percentage, and fourth, if a Specified Default then exists or if the Termination Date has occurred, to the funding of a cash collateral deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to 101.5% of all Letter of Credit Outstandings;

117

(ii) Subject to the foregoing, outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be prepaid before outstanding LIBOR Loans are prepaid (except as otherwise directed by the Lead Borrower). Each partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $500,000 (but in no event less than $2,500,000). No partial prepayment of a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the LIBOR Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing being less than $2,500,000 (unless all such outstanding LIBOR Loans are being prepaid in full); and

(iii) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount and Class and Type of the Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were made. Each notice of prepayment shall be revocable, provided that, within five Business Days of receiving a written demand for such reimbursement which sets forth the calculation of such Breakage Costs in reasonable detail, the Borrowers shall reimburse the Lenders for all Breakage Costs associated with the revocation of any notice of prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Lead Borrower hereunder, notify each applicable Lender of the principal amount and Type of the Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.08(a) which generally permit voluntary prepayments of the Loans, except as provided in Section 2.09, only if all Tranche A Loans are repaid in full may the Borrowers prepay amounts owed with respect to the Tranche A-1 Loans, provided, that any such prepayment shall not reduce or terminate the Tranche A-1 Commitments. In addition, the Borrowers shall also repay the Tranche A-1 Loans as required (i) under Section 2.09 hereof and (ii) upon any reduction or termination of the Tranche A-1 Commitments in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.07(b) hereof.

(c) Interest, Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.08 and Section 2.09 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, Breakage Costs.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.08 or Section 2.09, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of LIBOR Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.08 or Section 2.09, prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor and less than three months are remaining in such Interest Period, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.08 or Section 2.09 in respect of any such LIBOR Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the

118

Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.08 or Section 2.09. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 2.08 or Section 2.09.

Section 2.09 Mandatory Prepayment; Commitment Termination; Cash Collateral. The outstanding Obligations shall be subject to prepayment and/or cash collateralization of Letters of Credit as follows:

(a) If at any time the amount of the Tranche A Credit Extensions by the Tranche A Lenders exceeds the lesser of the aggregate Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche A Borrowing Base, the Borrowers will, immediately upon notice from the Administrative Agent: (i) prepay the Tranche A Loans (including Swingline Loans) in an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency and (ii) if, after giving effect to the prepayment in full of all outstanding Tranche A Loans such deficiency has not been eliminated, deposit cash into the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to 101.5% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings.

(b) If at any time the amount of the Revolving Credit Extensions by the Revolving Lenders causes Excess Availability to be less than zero, the Borrowers will, immediately upon notice from the Administrative Agent: (i) prepay the Tranche A Loans in an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency; (ii) if, after giving effect to the prepayment in full of all outstanding Tranche A Loans such deficiency has not been eliminated, prepay the Tranche A-1 Loans in an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency; and (iii) if, after giving effect to the prepayment in full of all outstanding Tranche A Loans and Tranche A-1 Loans such deficiency has not been eliminated, deposit cash into the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to 101.5% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings.

(c) The Loans shall be repaid daily in accordance with (and to the extent required under) the provisions of Section 2.19, to the extent then applicable.

(d) So long as a Liquidation has not been commenced and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied by the Loan Parties, at the time of the delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate, Tranche A Loans shall be made by the Tranche A Lenders to repay the Tranche A-1 Loans to the extent that the Tranche A-1 Loans exceed Incremental Availability as reflected in such Borrowing Base Certificate.

(e) Except during the continuance of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion), any Net Cash Proceeds, Cash Receipts and other payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be applied as the Lead Borrower shall direct the Administrative Agent in writing, and otherwise consistent with the provisions of Section 2.08.

(f) Subject to the foregoing, except as otherwise directed by the Lead Borrower (whose direction may be given only if a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion) has not occurred and is not continuing), outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be prepaid before outstanding LIBOR Loans are prepaid.

119

(g) A prepayment of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.08 or this Section 2.09 shall not permanently reduce the Revolving Commitments. Upon the Termination Date, the Revolving Commitments and the credit facility provided hereunder shall be terminated in full and the Borrowers shall pay, in full and in cash, all outstanding Loans and all other outstanding Obligations then owing by them and the Letters of Credit shall be cash collateralized as provided for in Section 2.06.

Section 2.10 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(b) and Section 10.01(e), (i) each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate, (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate and (iii) each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Tranche A Loans.

(b) The Borrowers shall pay interest on past due amounts hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in Dollars.

(e) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

Section 2.11 Fees.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in the Fee Letter and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent).

120

(b) The Borrowers shall pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Tranche A Lenders and the Tranche A-1 Lenders, respectively, an aggregate fee (the “Unused Fee”) equal to the average daily Excess Availability, during the calendar quarter just ended (or relevant period with respect to the payment being made on the Termination Date) at a rate of 0.250% per annum. The Unused Fee shall be paid in arrears, on the first day of each calendar quarter ending after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date and on the Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall pay the Unused Fee to the Tranche A Lenders and the Tranche A-1 Lenders, as applicable, upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Unused Fee based upon their Tranche A Commitment Percentage or Tranche A-1 Commitment Percentage, as applicable, of an amount equal to the aggregate Unused Fee to all Tranche A Lenders or Tranche A-1 Lenders, as applicable.

(c) The Borrowers shall pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders who are then participating in the Letters of Credit, on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, in arrears, for the calendar quarter just ended (or relevant period with respect to the payment being made through the first calendar quarter ending after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date or on the Termination Date), a fee (each, a “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the following per annum percentages of the aggregate face amount of the of Letters of Credit then outstanding:

(i) With respect to Standby Letters of Credit, at a per annum rate equal to the then Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans with respect to Tranche A Loans;

(ii) With respect to Commercial Letters of Credit, at a per annum rate equal to (A) the Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans with respect to Tranche A Loans minus (B) 1/2 of 1 percent (0.50%);

(iii) After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Default, at any time that the Administrative Agent is not holding in the Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 101.5% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings as of the date of occurrence, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, effective upon written notice from the Administrative Agent (which notice may be given at the election of the Administrative Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders after the occurrence of any such Event of Default), the Letter of Credit Fees set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.11(c) shall be increased, at the option of the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders, by an amount equal to 2.00% per annum.

(d) The Borrowers shall pay to each Issuing Bank, in addition to all Letter of Credit Fees otherwise provided for herein, (i) promptly after written demand, the reasonable and customary fees, commissions, and charges of the Issuing Bank in connection with the negotiation, settlement and amendment of each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank and any and all other customary commissions, fees and charges then in effect imposed by, and any and all expenses incurred by, Issuing Bank, or by any adviser, confirming institution or entity or other nominated person, relating to Letters of Credit, at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit and upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter of Credit (including transfers, assignments of proceeds, amendments, drawings, extensions or cancellations) and (ii) a fronting fee (each, a “Fronting Fee”) equal to 1/8 of 1% (0.125%) per annum on the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit (or such lesser amount as agreed to by the Borrowers and the applicable Issuing Bank). Each such Fronting Fee shall be payable, in arrears, on the first day of each calendar quarter and on demand on the Termination Date.

121

(e) All fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent and other Credit Parties as provided herein. Once due, all fees shall be fully earned and shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.12 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the “prime lending rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.14(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.13 Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version), as agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender with respect to each Class of Loans (or Commitments in respect thereof) held by such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans (of the applicable Class) in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.13(a), each Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the purchases and sales by such Revolving Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

122

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.13(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.13(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.14 Payments Generally.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 4:00 p.m. on the date specified herein; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any payments received by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to be received by the Administrative Agent on any Business Day unless immediately available funds have been credited to Agent’s Account prior to 4:00 p.m. on such Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds after 4:00 p.m., shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) If any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of LIBOR Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c) Unless the Borrowers or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, then:

123

(i) if the Borrowers failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the applicable Overnight Rate; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.14(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Lead Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation.

(f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

124

(g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.04. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties and the Guarantors under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Credit Extensions, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender (taking into account the various priorities among the Classes of Loans specified herein).

Section 2.15 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it or the participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof or contrary to the priority of the Obligation in respect of which such payment was obtained (as determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to the priorities demonstrated in Section 8.04), such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by them, as the case may be, in each case, of the then outstanding highest priority (as determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to the priorities demonstrated in Section 8.04) as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations of such priority, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them (and so on with respect to the Obligations of next highest priority); provided that (x) all such payments so obtained by a Lender shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of then outstanding Obligations of the highest priority and, only after all Obligations in respect of such then highest priority have been paid or cash collateralized as required herein, shall any excess be deemed to be a payment in respect of the Obligations of the next highest priority (and so on) and (y) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.15 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such

125

purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

Section 2.16 Settlement Among Lenders.

(a) The Swingline Lender may, at any time (but, in any event shall weekly, as provided in Section 2.16(b)), on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby authorize the Swingline Lender to act on their behalf in that regard) request the Administrative Agent to cause the Tranche A Lenders to make a Tranche A Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans made in accordance with Section 2.05, which request may be made regardless of whether the conditions set forth in Article IV have been satisfied. Upon such request, each Tranche A Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Tranche A Loan for the account of the Swingline Lender. If the Swingline Lender requires a Tranche A Loan to be made by the Tranche A Lenders and the request therefor is received prior to 12:00 noon on a Business Day, such transfers shall be made in immediately available funds no later than 3:00 p.m. that day; and, if the request therefor is received after 12:00 noon, then no later than 3:00 p.m. on the next Business Day. The obligation of each such Tranche A Lender to transfer such funds is irrevocable, unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender. If and to the extent any Tranche A Lender shall not have so made its transfer to the Administrative Agent, such Tranche A Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(b) In addition to other reallocations effected in connection with any Conversion, the amount of each Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage or Tranche A-1 Commitment Percentage of outstanding Revolving Loans shall be computed weekly (or more frequently in the Administrative Agent’s discretion) and shall be adjusted upward or downward based on all Loans and repayments of Loans received by the Administrative Agent as of 3:00 p.m. on the first Business Day (such date, the “Settlement Date”) following the end of the period specified by the Administrative Agent.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders promptly after a Settlement Date a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Loans for the period and the amount of repayments received for the period. As reflected on the summary statement, (i) the Administrative Agent shall transfer to each Tranche A Lender or Tranche A-1 Lender, as applicable, its Tranche A Commitment Percentage or Tranche A-1 Commitment Percentage of repayments, and (ii) each Lender shall transfer to the Administrative Agent (as provided below) or the Administrative Agent shall transfer to each Lender, such amounts as are necessary to insure that, after giving effect to all such transfers, the amount of Loans made by each Tranche A Lender or Tranche A-1 Lender, as applicable, shall be equal to such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage, or Tranche A-1 Lender’s Tranche A-1 Commitment Percentage of

126

such Loans, as applicable outstanding as of such Settlement Date. If the summary statement requires transfers to be made to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and is received prior to 12:00 noon on a Business Day, such transfers shall be made in immediately available funds no later than 3:00 p.m. that day; and, if received after 12:00 noon, then no later than 3:00 p.m. on the next Business Day. The obligation of each Lender to transfer such funds is irrevocable, unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its transfer to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

Section 2.17 Additional Commitments.

(a) Requests for Additional Commitments. So long as no Default exists or would arise therefrom, at any time and from time to time after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lead Borrower may (on behalf of the Borrowers), by notice to the Administrative Agent, request (i) an increase of the Tranche A Commitment and/or the Tranche A-1 Commitment or the making of any new revolving credit facility to be included hereunder (provided, however, that no new revolving credit facility may be provided hereunder so long as the Tranche A Commitments and the Tranche A-1 Commitments remain in effect) (“Additional Revolving Commitments”) and/or (ii) add a new term loan credit facility to be included under this Agreement (the “Additional Term Loan Commitments”; the Additional Revolving Commitments and the Additional Term Loan Commitments, the “Additional Commitments”; any Loans made under or pursuant to any Additional Revolving Commitments, the “Additional Revolving Loans”; any Loans made pursuant to any Additional Term Loan Commitments, the “Additional Term Loans”; Additional Revolving Loans and Additional Term Loans, collectively, the “Additional Loans”). Each Additional Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the Additional Commitments consummated, effected, or given effect after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date shall not exceed the Available Incremental Amount.

(b) Additional Term Loan Commitments. At the Lead Borrower’s option, any Additional Term Loans may (i) rank pari passu (“Additional Pari Passu Term Loans”) in right of priority with respect to the Collateral and payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Tranche A Commitments and any corresponding and then existing Additional Pari Passu Term Loans or (ii) rank junior (“Additional Junior Term Loans”) in right of priority with respect to the Collateral and payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Tranche A Commitments, the Tranche A-1 Commitments, any Additional Pari Passu Term Loans, and any other Additional Junior Term Loans which remain outstanding at the time such Additional Junior Term Loan is made. Additional Pari Passu Term Loans shall constitute usage of the Tranche A Borrowing Base and during the period commencing upon the issuance of any Additional Term Loan Commitment providing for any Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and the making of such Additional Pari Passu Term Loans, the Administrative Agent shall, in the exercise of its commercially reasonable discretion, establish an Availability Reserve in respect thereof in an amount reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (and, in cases where such Additional Pari Passu Term Loans are intended to fund all or a part of the purchase price of a Permitted Acquisition, taking into account on a pro forma basis any increase to Excess Availability which might arise upon the consummation of such Permitted Acquisition).

127

(c) Ranking and Other Provisions. The Additional Commitments and Additional Loans may be effected by an Additional Credit Amendment (as defined below) as may be necessary and appropriate in the opinion of the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of this Section 2.17; provided that:

(i) the Additional Loans shall have the same guarantees as, and be secured by the same Collateral securing, the other Loans to such Borrower;

(ii) in the case of Additional Revolving Commitments which will be Tranche A Commitments, such Additional Revolving Commitments and the Additional Loans made thereunder will be secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral securing the Tranche A Loans and Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Tranche A Loans and the Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and the Obligations in respect thereof;

(iii) in the case of Additional Revolving Commitments which will be Tranche A-1 Commitments, such Additional Revolving Commitments and the Additional Loans made thereunder will be secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral securing the Tranche A-1 Loans and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Tranche A-1 Loans and the Obligations in respect thereof;

(iv) in the case of any Additional Term Loan Commitment which provides for Additional Pari Passu Term Loans, (A) such Additional Term Loan Commitment and such Additional Pari Passu Term Loans will be secured on a pari passu basis with the same Collateral securing the Tranche A Loans and the other Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Tranche A Loans and the other Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and, in each case, the Obligations in respect thereof and (B) the Additional Credit Amendment providing for such Additional Term Loan Commitment may provide, at the Lead Borrower’s option, that (1) so much of such Additional Term Loan Commitment as may, at any time, be unfunded may be converted to a Tranche A Commitment and (2) any Additional Pari Passu Term Loans made pursuant to such Additional Term Loan Commitment may be converted to a Tranche A Loan and a corresponding and equal Tranche A Commitment, subject, in each case, to (aa) the consent of the Additional Committing Lenders providing such Additional Term Loan Commitment and Additional Pari Passu Term Loans; (bb) the consent of the Administrative Agent; and (cc) at the time of such conversion under the immediately preceding clause (2) and after giving pro forma effect thereto, Excess Availability would exceed $0.00 and the conditions precedent in Section 4.02 would be satisfied (and any Tranche A Commitment arising upon the conversion of any Additional Term Loan Commitment or Additional Pari Passu Term Loans in accordance with this clause (iv) shall constitute, for other purposes of this Section 2.17, a new or increased Tranche A Commitment, as if implemented pursuant to an Additional Revolving Commitment);

128

(v) in the case of any Additional Term Loan Commitment which provides for Additional Junior Term Loans, such Additional Term Loan Commitment and such Additional Junior Term Loans will be secured, on a junior basis, by the same Collateral securing the Loans, the Additional Pari Passu Term Loans, and the other Additional Junior Term Loans and shall rank junior only to the Revolving Loans, the Additional Pari Passu Term Loans, and such other Additional Junior Term Loans which remain outstanding at the time such Additional Junior Term Loans are made and, in each case, the Obligations in respect thereof;

(vi) no amendment effecting an Additional Commitment may provide for (A) any Additional Commitment or the Additional Loans made pursuant thereto to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that do not also secure the Loans; (B) with respect to any Additional Revolving Commitment and any Additional Term Loan Commitment providing for Additional Pari Passu Term Loans and the Additional Loans made pursuant thereto, any mandatory prepayment provisions that, so long as any Loans (other than Additional Junior Term Loans) are outstanding, do not also apply to the Revolving Loans and the other Additional Pari Passu Term Loans on a pro rata basis while an Event of Default of the type described in clauses (a), (f) or (g) of Section 8.01 has occurred and is continuing or upon an acceleration of the Obligations; or (C) with respect to any Additional Term Loan Commitment and the Additional Junior Term Loans made pursuant thereto, any mandatory prepayment provisions (other than provisions which require mandatory prepayment upon an acceleration of the Obligations or which require prepayment only if, at the time such mandatory prepayment is to be made and after giving pro forma effect thereto, (1) no Default shall exist or would result therefrom; (2) on the date such mandatory prepayment is made, Pro Forma Excess Availability shall equal or exceed 15.00% of the Loan Cap; and (3) if, on the date such mandatory prepayment is made, Pro Forma Excess Availability is less than 17.50% of the Loan Cap, then the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (calculated on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the Test Period) shall be at least 1.10 to 1.00);

(vii) the maturity date of such Additional Commitments shall not be earlier than the Maturity Date (provided, however, that at any time up to $200,000,000 of Additional Commitments (or the Additional Loans which have been made pursuant to any such Additional Commitments) may have a maturity date that is earlier than the Maturity Date, subject only to the written agreement of the Agent, the Lead Borrower, and the Lenders extending such Additional Commitments (or Additional Loans));

(viii) the interest rate margins applicable to the Additional Loans shall be determined by the Lead Borrower and the Lenders extending Additional Commitments;

(ix) such Additional Credit Amendment may provide for (A) the inclusion, as appropriate, of (1) Lenders extending Additional Commitments in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders and (2) Lenders extending Additional Revolving Commitments or Additional Term Loan Commitments which provide for Additional Pari Passu Term Loans in any required vote or action of the Super Majority of Revolving Lenders and (B) class protection for the Tranche A Lenders, the Tranche A-1

129

Lenders, and any Lenders providing Additional Loans pursuant to any Additional Commitments (and, in any event, any such Additional Credit Amendment shall provide class protection for the Revolving Lenders with respect to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 in connection with the funding of any Revolving Credit Extension, as applicable);

(x) the other terms and documentation in respect thereof, to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to the Additional Credit Amendment, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent;

(xi) upon each increase in the Tranche A Commitments pursuant to an Additional Revolving Commitment under this Section 2.17, each Tranche A Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Additional Committing Lender providing a portion of the Additional Revolving Commitment in respect of its Additional Revolving Commitment, and each such Additional Committing Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, in the case of an increase to the Tranche A Commitments, a portion of such Tranche A Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Tranche A Lender (including each such Additional Committing Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Tranche A Commitments of all Tranche A Lenders represented by such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment;

(xii) on each Additional Credit Closing Date and after giving effect to any Additional Revolving Commitments which become effective on such Additional Credit Closing Date:

(A) to the extent such Additional Revolving Commitments are Tranche A Commitments (including any Tranche A Commitments arising under Section 2.17(c)(iv)), each Additional Lender providing a new Tranche A Commitment shall thereafter be a Tranche A Lender, and each such Additional Lender and each existing Tranche A Lender providing an increased Tranche A Commitment shall make Tranche A Loans which will, as applicable and as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, be applied to effect the reallocation of the Tranche A Loans among the Tranche A Lenders (with any repayment of a Tranche A Loan in connection with such reallocation being accompanied by accrued interest on the Tranche A Loan being repaid and any Breakage Costs) such that, after giving effect thereto and the reallocations contemplated in the foregoing clause (vii), each Tranche A Lender’s share of all Tranche A Credit Extensions shall equal its Pro Rata Share thereof;

130

(B) to the extent such Additional Commitments are Tranche A-1 Commitments, each Additional Lender providing a new Tranche A-1 Commitment shall thereafter be a Tranche A-1 Lender, and each such Additional Lender and each existing Tranche A-1 Lender providing an increased Tranche A-1 Commitment shall make Tranche A-1 Loans which will, as applicable and as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, be applied to the repayment of Tranche A Loans (which repayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Tranche A Loans being repaid and any Breakage Costs) until all Tranche A Loans are repaid in full (or, if such Tranche A-1 Commitments are to become effective contemporaneously with any particular transaction permitted hereunder and the proceeds of Tranche A-1 Loans are to be used to finance or make payments in connection with such transaction, then the proceeds of such Tranche A-1 Loans may be applied directly to such financing or payments, subject to the Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval of the funding mechanics relating to such proceeds and the proceeds of any Tranche A Loans that might be made in connection therewith) and, then, to effect the reallocation of Tranche A-1 Loans among the Tranche A-1 Lenders (with each repayment of any Tranche A-1 Loan in connection with such reallocation being accompanied by accrued interest on the Tranche A-1 Loan being repaid and any Breakage Costs) such that, after giving effect thereto, each Tranche A-1 Lender’s share of all Tranche A-1 Credit Extensions shall equal its Pro Rata Share thereof;

(xiii) this Section 2.17 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.15 or 10.01 to the contrary.

(d) Additional Amendments. Each notice from the Lead Borrower, on behalf of the Borrowers, pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Additional Commitment. Additional Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank, other financial institution or investing entity (any such bank, investing entity or other financial institution, an “Additional Lender”), in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.17 or otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Additional Commitments unless it so agrees. Additional Commitments shall be included under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Additional Credit Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, pursuant to Section 2.17(b), executed by each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Credit Closing Date (as defined below), each Lender agreeing to provide such Additional Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any (each such Lender or Additional Lender, an “Additional Committing Lender”), and the Administrative Agent. An Additional Credit Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.17.

(e) Certain Conditions. The effectiveness of any Additional Credit Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and each Additional Committing Lender, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Additional Credit Closing Date”) of each of the following conditions:

131

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to the Additional Credit Closing Date each of the following, each dated the applicable Additional Credit Closing Date unless otherwise indicated or agreed to by the Administrative Agent and each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:

(A) the applicable Additional Credit Amendment executed by each Additional Committing Lender and each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Credit Closing Date (and each other Borrower hereby consents to such Additional Credit Amendment);

(B) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Credit Closing Date, approving the execution, delivery and performance of the Additional Credit Amendment; and

(C) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel for the Loan Parties dated the Additional Credit Closing Date, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(ii) to the extent the Additional Credit Amendment provides for Additional Revolving Commitments, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 shall have been satisfied both before and after giving effect to such Additional Credit Amendment and the initial Additional Revolving Loans provided thereby;

(iii) there shall have been paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Additional Committing Lenders, all reasonable fees, if any, as may have been separately agreed in writing by the Lead Borrower to be due and payable to the Additional Committing Lenders on or before the Additional Credit Closing Date;

(iv) on or before such Additional Credit Closing Date, the Lead Borrower shall have received all of the confirmations required by Section 10.25(a); and

(f) in connection with any Additional Credit Amendment, if any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries owns or will acquire any Margin Stock, Borrowers shall deliver to Agent an updated Form U-1 (with sufficient additional originals thereof for each Lender), duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers, together with such other documentation as Agent shall reasonably request, in order to enable Agent and the Lenders to comply with any of the requirements under Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board (provided, that the provisions of this clause (f) shall not limit the terms of Sections 5.13(a) or 7.10).

Section 2.18 Designation of Lead Borrower as Borrowers’ Agent.

132

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as such Borrower’s agent to obtain Loans and Letters of Credit, the proceeds of which shall be available to each Borrower for such uses as are permitted under this Agreement. As the disclosed principal for its agent, each Borrower shall be obligated to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on account of Loans so made and Letters of Credit so issued as if made directly by the Lenders to such Borrower, notwithstanding the manner by which such Loans and Letters of Credit are recorded on the books and records of the Lead Borrower and of any other Borrower.

(b) Each Borrower represents to the Credit Parties that it is an integral part of a consolidated enterprise, and that each Loan Party will receive direct and indirect benefits from the availability of the joint credit facility provided for herein, and from the ability to access the collective credit resources of the consolidated enterprise which the Loan Parties comprise. Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it hereunder is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and for its own account and that one of the reasons therefor is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower hereby assumes and agrees to discharge all Obligations of each of the other Borrowers as if the Borrower which is so assuming and agreeing were each of the other Borrowers.

(c) The Lead Borrower shall act as a conduit for each Borrower (including itself, as a Borrower) on whose behalf the Lead Borrower has requested a Loan. None of the Agents nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation to see to the application of such proceeds.

(d) The authority of the Lead Borrower to request Loans and Letters of Credit on behalf of, and to bind, the Borrowers, shall continue unless and until the Administrative Agent actually receives written notice of: (i) the termination of such authority, (ii) the subsequent appointment of a successor Lead Borrower, which notice is signed by an Authorized Person of each Borrower and (iii) written notice from such successive Lead Borrower accepting such appointment and acknowledging that from and after the date of such appointment, the newly appointed Lead Borrower shall be bound by the terms hereof, and that as used herein, the term “Lead Borrower” shall mean and include the newly appointed Lead Borrower.

Section 2.19 Cash Management.

(a) Immediately upon the occurrence of any Trigger Event (Cash Dominion), the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a schedule of all DDAs that, to the knowledge of the Responsible Officers of the Loan Parties, are maintained by the Loan Parties, which schedule includes, with respect to each depository (i) the name and address of such depository, (ii) the account name and number(s) maintained with such depository and (iii) a contact person at such depository.

(b) Within 90 days after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (or, so long as no Trigger Event (Cash Dominion) has occurred, such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree), each Loan Party shall enter into a blocked account agreement with any Blocked Account Bank (each, a “Blocked Account Agreement”) with respect to the DDAs of such Loan Parties existing as of the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (except with respect to any payroll, trust and tax withholding accounts, any Permitted Receivables DDA, and any “zero balance” disbursement account which is linked to or funded by (either directly or through one or more other DDAs or Deposit Accounts, each of which is a “zero balance” disbursement account) a

133

DDA or other Deposit Account which is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or unless expressly waived by the Administrative Agent) that are not currently subject to a Blocked Account Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent, including such accounts listed on Schedule 2.19(b) attached hereto (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”), which Blocked Account Agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (but in any event giving the Administrative Agent control (as such term is used in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code) over such DDAs (or, with respect to any DDA maintained in Canada, such similar control over such DDA)), with any Blocked Account Bank; provided that, if a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion) has occurred, then each Loan Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such Blocked Account Agreements within 10 Business Days after the commencement of such event (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree).

(c) Each Blocked Account Agreement entered into by a Loan Party shall require, during the continuance of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion) (and delivery of notice thereof from the Collateral Agent), the ACH or wire transfer on each Business Day (and whether or not there is then an outstanding balance in the Loan Account) of all available cash receipts (the “Cash Receipts”) (other than Uncontrolled Cash which may be deposited into a segregated DDA which the Lead Borrower designates in writing to the Administrative Agent as being the “Uncontrolled Cash Account” (the “Designated Account”)) to the Concentration Account, from:

(i) the sale of Inventory and other Collateral (whether or not constituting a Prepayment Event);

(ii) all proceeds of collections of Accounts (whether or not constituting a Prepayment Event);

(iii) all Net Cash Proceeds on account of any Prepayment Event;

(iv) each Blocked Account (including all cash deposited therein from each DDA) (including any Designated Funds which are on deposit in any Blocked Account).

If, at any time during the continuance of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion) (except with respect to any payroll, trust and tax withholding accounts, any Permitted Receivables DDA, and any “zero balance” disbursement account which is linked to or funded by (either directly or through one or more other DDAs or Deposit Accounts, each of which is a “zero balance” disbursement account) a DDA or other Deposit Account which is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement), any cash or Cash Equivalents owned by any Loan Party (other than Uncontrolled Cash) are deposited to any account, or held or invested in any manner, otherwise than in a Blocked Account that is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement (or a DDA which is swept daily to a Blocked Account), the Collateral Agent may require the applicable Loan Party to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to a Blocked Account, and all future deposits made to a Blocked Account which is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, during the continuance of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion), the Loan Parties shall provide the Collateral Agent with an accounting of the contents of the Blocked Accounts.

134

(d) The Loan Parties may close DDAs or Blocked Accounts and/or open new DDAs or Blocked Accounts, subject to the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of appropriate Blocked Account Agreements (except with respect to any payroll, trust and tax withholding accounts, any Permitted Receivables DDA, and any “zero balance” disbursement account which is linked to or funded by (either directly or through one or more other DDAs or Deposit Accounts, each of which is a “zero balance” disbursement account) a DDA or other Deposit Account which is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or unless expressly waived by the Administrative Agent) consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.19 and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Loan Parties shall furnish the Administrative Agent with prior written notice of its intention to open or close a Blocked Account and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower as to whether the Administrative Agent shall require a Blocked Account Agreement with the Person with whom such account will be maintained.

(e) The Borrowers may also maintain one or more disbursement accounts (the “Disbursement Accounts”) to be used by the Borrowers for disbursements and payments (including payroll) in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise permitted hereunder.

(f) The Concentration Account shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) such Borrower has no right of withdrawal from the Concentration Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in the Concentration Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in the Concentration Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.19, during the continuation of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion), any Borrower receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any such proceeds or collections (other than Uncontrolled Cash), such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Borrower for the Collateral Agent, shall not be commingled with any of such Borrower’s other funds or deposited in any account of such Borrower and shall promptly be deposited into the Concentration Account or dealt with in such other fashion as such Borrower may be instructed by the Collateral Agent.

(g) Any amounts received in the Concentration Account at any time when all of the Obligations then due have been and remain fully repaid shall be remitted to the operating account of the Borrowers maintained with the Administrative Agent.

(h) The Collateral Agent shall promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) furnish written notice to each Person with whom a Blocked Account is maintained of any termination of a Trigger Event (Cash Dominion).

(i) The following shall apply to deposits and payments under and pursuant to this Agreement:

(i) funds shall be deemed to have been deposited to the Concentration Account on the Business Day on which deposited, provided that such deposit is available to the Administrative Agent by 4:00 p.m. on that Business Day (except that if the Obligations are being paid in full, by 2:00 p.m. New York, New York time, on that Business Day);

135

(ii) funds paid to the Administrative Agent, other than by deposit to the Concentration Account, shall be deemed to have been received on the Business Day when they are good and collected funds, provided that such payment is available to the Administrative Agent by 4:00 p.m. on that Business Day (except that if the Obligations are being paid in full, by 2:00 p.m. New York, New York time, on that Business Day);

(iii) if a deposit to the Concentration Account or payment is not available to the Administrative Agent until after 4:00 p.m. on a Business Day, such deposit or payment shall be deemed to have been made at 9:00 a.m. on the then next Business Day;

(iv) if any item deposited to the Concentration Account and credited to the Loan Account is dishonored or returned unpaid for any reason, whether or not such return is rightful or timely, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to reverse such credit and charge the amount of such item to the applicable Loan Account and the Borrowers shall indemnify the Secured Parties against all out-of-pocket claims and losses resulting from such dishonor or return;

(v) all amounts received under this Section 2.19 shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 8.04.

(j) During any Trigger Event Cure Period, unless and until the Lead Borrower has demonstrated that Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is at least 1.00 to 1.00 (determined on a consolidated twelve-month (or four-quarter, if applicable) basis as of the fiscal month end immediately preceding the commencement of such Trigger Event Cure Period for which financial statements are available (but in any event as of the most recent fiscal month ending at least 30 days prior to the commencement of such Trigger Event Cure Period)) by delivery to the Administrative Agent of the monthly financial statements required by Section 6.01(f) for the fiscal month specified above and the related Compliance Certificate, (i) the Borrowers shall not be permitted to request any Loans or the issuance of any Letters of Credit and (ii) Holdings, the Borrowers and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be permitted to (A) declare any Restricted Payment in the form of a dividend under Sections 7.06(h), (j), or (k), (B) consummate any transaction described under Sections 7.02(d)(v), 7.02(j), 7.02(n), 7.06(h), 7.06(j), 7.06(k) or 7.12(a)(vi) (other than the payment of dividends which were not declared in violation of the preceding clause (A)), or (C) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, any transaction described under Section 7.05(f), 7.05(j) or 7.05(n).

Section 2.20 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Account.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of the Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) which will reflect (i) all Loans and other advances made by the Lenders to the Borrowers or for the Borrowers’ account, (ii) all Letter of Credit Disbursements, fees and interest that have become payable as herein set forth, and (iii) any and all other monetary Obligations that have become payable.

136

(b) The Loan Account will be credited with all amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or from other Persons for the Borrowers’ account, including all amounts received in the Concentration Account from the Blocked Account Banks, and the amounts so credited shall be applied as set forth in and to the extent required by Section 2.09(e) or Section 8.04, as applicable. After the end of each month, the Administrative Agent shall send to the Borrowers a statement accounting for the charges (including interest), loans, advances and other transactions occurring among and between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers during that month. The monthly statements, absent manifest error, shall be deemed presumptively correct.

Section 2.21 Additional Borrowers.

137

Section 2.22 Additional Caribbean Parties.

(a) The Lead Borrower may at any time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from the Lead Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate any Subsidiary that is a Caribbean Subsidiary of the Lead Borrower (an “Applicant Caribbean Party”) as a Guarantor or a Borrower hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Lender) a duly executed Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement, with such changes as are necessary or advisable under local Law; provided that (i) such Applicant Caribbean Party which would be a Non-Territorial Caribbean Party shall have, in the aggregate, at least $3,000,000 in combined Eligible Accounts and Eligible Inventory at the time it is made a Guarantor or Borrower, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received satisfactory inventory appraisals and conducted such field exams with respect to the Eligible Accounts and Eligible Inventory of such Applicant Caribbean Party as it deems necessary in its discretion and (iii) such Applicant Caribbean Party is organized in an Approved Caribbean Jurisdiction. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Caribbean Party becoming a Guarantor or a Borrower, (1) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received (x) such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, and (y) Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require and (2) such Applicant Caribbean Party shall have complied with the terms and conditions of Sections 6.11 and 6.13 as if such Applicant Caribbean Party were the Restricted Subsidiary referenced therein, which shall include the execution and delivery of such agreements, instruments and documents as are necessary or customary in the jurisdiction of such Caribbean Party for (x) such Applicant Caribbean Party to become a Guarantor or a Borrower, as applicable, to Guarantee the Obligations and to grant a perfected first priority security interest in its Accounts and Inventory and (y) 100% of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of such Caribbean Party to be pledged in favor of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent agrees that an Applicant Caribbean Party that is a Borrower shall be entitled to receive Loans hereunder, then promptly following receipt of all such requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a Borrower Notice to the Lead Borrower and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Caribbean Party shall constitute a Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Lenders agrees to permit such Borrower to receive Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement unless expressly stated otherwise.

(b) The Lead Borrower may from time to time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from the Lead Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Caribbean Party’s status as a Loan Party, provided that (i) there are no outstanding Loans payable by such Caribbean Party if it is a Caribbean Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Caribbean Party if it is a Caribbean Borrower on account of any Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination and (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur after giving effect thereto. Upon the termination of a Caribbean Party’s status as a Loan Party, any Investment by the other Loan Parties therein or Indebtedness of such Caribbean Party owed to any other Loan Parties shall automatically constitute an Investment in or Indebtedness of, as applicable, a Non-Loan Party in accordance with Sections 7.02 and 7.03, respectively, and shall be required to comply with the provisions thereof. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such termination of a Caribbean Party’s status.

138

Section 2.23 Extension Amendments.

(a) The Lead Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Tranche A Commitments, the Tranche A-1 Commitments or any Additional Commitments, each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Commitment” and any related Revolving Loans thereunder, “Existing Loans”; each Existing Commitment and related Existing Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Tranche”) be converted to extend the Maturity Date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) (each, an “Extended Maturity Date”) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Loans related to such Existing Commitments (any such Existing Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Commitments” and any related Existing Loans, “Extended Loans” being together referred to as an “Extended Tranche”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.23. In order to establish any Extended Commitments, the Lead Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Notice”) setting forth the terms of the Extended Commitments to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Commitment”) except:

(i) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Commitments;

(ii) (A) the Applicable Rate with respect to the Extended Commitments may be higher or lower than the Applicable Rate for the Specified Existing Commitments and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any increased Applicable Rate contemplated by the preceding clause (A);

(iii) the Unused Fee with respect to the Extended Commitments may be higher or lower than the Unused Fee for the Specified Existing Commitment, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; and

(iv) the Lead Borrower may select, at its option, Extended Commitments or earlier maturing Tranche A Commitments, Tranche A-1 Commitments or Additional Commitments for permanent reduction and/or termination on a non-pro rata basis;

provided that:

(A) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent reduction and/or termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to any Commitments (including all Extended Commitments) shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other outstanding Tranche A Commitments, Tranche A-1 Commitments or Additional Commitments, as applicable (including all Extended Commitments); and

139

(B) assignments and participations of Extended Commitments and Extended Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Commitments and the Revolving Loans related to such Commitments set forth in Section 10.07.

No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans or Existing Commitments of any Existing Tranche converted into Extended Loans or Extended Commitments pursuant to any Extension Notice. Any Extended Commitments shall constitute a separate Extended Tranche of Commitments from the Specified Existing Commitments and from any other Existing Commitments (together with any other Extended Commitments so established on such date).

(b) Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Commitment into an Extended Commitment, such Extended Commitment (if a revolving Commitment) shall be treated identically to all revolving Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Lender in respect of Letters of Credit under Section 2.06 and Swingline Loans under Section 2.05, except that the applicable Extension Amendment may provide that the maturity date for Swingline Loans and/or Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to make Swingline Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued so long as the Swingline Lender and/or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, have consented to such extensions in their sole discretion (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

(c) Extended Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to provisions related to maturity, interest margins, fees and/or commitment reductions and terminations referenced in Section 2.23(a)(i)-(iv) and which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.23(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.01, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Commitments established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the applicable Extending Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 10.01 to any Additional Extension Amendments (as defined below), any Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, an “Additional Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Additional Extension Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that such Additional Extension Amendments have been consented to (including, without limitation, pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Commitments provided for in any Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Additional Extension Amendments to become effective in accordance with Section 10.01; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for (a) any Extended Commitment or Extended Loans to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Tranches and (b) so long as any Existing Tranches are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Existing Tranches on a pro rata basis upon an acceleration of the Loans. It is understood and agreed that each Lender has consented for all purposes requiring its consent, and shall at the

140

effective time thereof be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents authorized by this Section 2.23 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith except that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Additional Extension Amendment. In connection with any Extension Amendment, the Lead Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,

(i) on any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified Existing Commitments of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Commitments shall be established as a separate Extended Tranche of Commitments from the Specified Existing Commitments and from any other Existing Commitments (together with any other Extended Commitments so established on such date), and

(ii) if, on any Extension Date, any Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the applicable Specified Existing Commitments, such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Extended Loans (and related participations) and Existing Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Commitments to Extended Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date.

(e) If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines to consent to the extension of its Commitment on the terms set forth in the applicable Extension Notice (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the Lead Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Extending Lender:

(i) cause such Non-Extending Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Lead Borrower in such instance) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that (A) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Lead Borrower to find a new Lender, (B) the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide a Commitment on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment and (C) all obligations of the Borrowers (other than assignment fee and any other costs and expenses paid by the Lead Borrower) owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Assumption, or

141

(ii) upon notice to the Administrative Agent, to prepay the Loans and, at the Lead Borrower’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Extending Lender, in whole or in part, subject to Section 3.05, without premium or penalty.

(f) No Extension Amendment or Additional Extension Amendment shall become effective unless and until the Lead Borrower shall have received all of the confirmations required by Section 10.25(a).

In connection with any assignment by a Non-Extending Lender under Section 2.23(e)(i), if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such assignment by the later of (A) the date on which the new Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (B) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Lead Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender.

Section 2.24 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01 and the definition of Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders, or Super Majority of Revolving Lenders, as applicable.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.09 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with Section 2.24(d); fourth, as the Lead Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Revolving Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s

142

potential future funding obligations with respect to Revolving Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.24(a)(iv); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Revolving Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of, and Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of, or Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Outstandings and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.24(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Tranche A Commitment Percentage of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.24(a)(iv).

(C) With respect to any Unused Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Outstandings or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to

143

such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Outstandings and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Tranche A Commitment Percentage (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Tranche A Credit Extensions of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche A Commitment. Subject to Section 10.24, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.24(c).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Lead Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.24(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) Cash Collateralization. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrowers shall deposit cash collateral into the Cash Collateral Account in an amount not less than 101.5% of the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure (determined after giving effect to Section 2.24(a)(iv) and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender); provided that such cash collateral (or the

144

appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this Section following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess cash collateral; provided, further, that, subject to Section 2.24, the Person providing cash collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that cash collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

(d) The Lead Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than two Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.24(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the pro rata payment and commitment reduction and termination requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

ARTICLE III

Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality

Section 3.01 Taxes.

(a) Except as provided in this Section 3.01, any and all payments by the Borrowers (the term Borrower under this Article III being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or any Guarantor to or for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities (including additions to tax, penalties and interest) with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Agent and each Lender, (i) United States federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA and any taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (including any branch profits taxes), and franchise (and similar) taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes (however denominated), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) as a result of such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, being organized or maintaining a Lending Office, or engaging in business (other than a business such Agent or Lender is deemed to be engaging in by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document), in such jurisdiction, (ii) Canadian federal withholding taxes imposed as a result of an Agent or Lender (A) not dealing at “arm’s length” (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) with a Canadian Guarantor or (B) being a “specified shareholder” (as that term is defined in subsection 18(5) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) of a Canadian Guarantor or being a Person not dealing at “arm’s length” (within the meaning of the

145

Income Tax Act (Canada)) with such a “specified shareholder”, except where such non-arm’s length relationship arises, or the Agent or Lender is or does not deal at “arm’s length” (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) with such a “specified shareholder”, as a consequence of the Agent or Lender having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under or enforced this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iii) all liabilities (including additions to tax, penalties and interest) with respect thereto (all such taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities not excluded pursuant to (i) to (iii) above and which are not Other Taxes as defined below in Section 3.01(b) being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Laws require the deduction or withholding of any Taxes or Other Taxes (defined below in Section 3.01(b)) from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers or a Guarantor shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrowers or a Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within 30 days, as soon as possible thereafter), the Borrowers or a Guarantor shall furnish to such Agent or Lender (as the case may be) the original or a facsimile copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrowers or a Guarantor fail to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to any Agent or any Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrowers shall indemnify such Agent and such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such Agent or such Lender arising out of such failure.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise, property, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes, charges or levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document excluding, in each case, such amounts that result from an Assignment and Assumption, grant of a participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable Lending Office or other office for receiving payments under any Loan Document, except to the extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by the Lead Borrower (all such non-excluded taxes described in this Section 3.01(b) being hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.01) withheld or deducted on payments to, or payable by, such Agent or such Lender and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided such Agent or Lender, as the case may be, provides the Borrowers with a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts. Payment under this

146

Section 3.01(c) shall be made within 20 days after the date such Lender or such Agent makes a demand therefor; provided that if the Lead Borrower reasonably believes that such Taxes or Other Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, each Agent and each Lender will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Lead Borrower to obtain a refund of such Taxes or Other Taxes so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of such Agent or Lender, result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be otherwise disadvantageous to it.

(d) The Borrowers shall not be required pursuant to this Section 3.01 to pay any additional amount to, or to indemnify, any Lender or Agent, as the case may be, for any U.S. federal withholding taxes to the extent that such Lender or such Agent becomes subject to such taxes after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (or, if later, the date such Lender or Agent becomes a party to this Agreement) as a result of a change in the place of organization or place of doing business of such Lender or Agent or a change in the Lending Office of such Lender, except to the extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by the Borrowers (and provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall be construed as relieving the Borrowers from any obligation to make such payments or indemnification in the event of a change in Lending Office or place of organization that precedes a change in Law to the extent such Taxes result from a change in Law).

(e) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if a Foreign Lender or an Agent is subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate in excess of zero percent at the time such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, first becomes a party to this Agreement, U.S. federal withholding tax (including additions to tax, penalties and interest imposed with respect to such U.S. federal withholding tax which is excluded from Taxes under this clause (e)) imposed by such jurisdiction at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes; provided that, if at the date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under clause (a) of this Section 3.01 in respect of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include the U.S. federal withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date.

(f) If any Lender or Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it is entitled to receive a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall use reasonable efforts to receive such refund and upon receipt of any such refund shall promptly remit such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund by the relevant taxing authority attributable thereto) to the Loan Party, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Loan Party, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agrees promptly to return such refund (including any interest or penalties imposed by the relevant taxing authority) to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the Lead Borrower’s request, provide the Lead Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that such Lender or Agent may delete any

147

information therein that such Lender or Agent deems confidential). Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or Agent to make available its tax returns or any other information it deems confidential or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

(g) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (c) with respect to such Lender it will, if requested by the Lead Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to legal and regulatory restrictions) at Borrowers’ expense to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further that nothing in this Section 3.01(g) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or (c).

(h) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.07(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any taxes and related interest, penalties and additions to tax (other than Taxes) attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h). Each Lender’s obligations under this Section 3.01(h) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i) Issuing Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 3.01 and Section 10.15, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Bank.

(j) FATCA Grandfathering. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loan as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

148

Section 3.02 Illegality. Subject to the provisions set forth in Section 3.09, if any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Lead Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to the provisions set forth in Section 3.09, if the Required Lenders determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan, or that LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such LIBOR Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Lead Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Lead Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

Section 3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on LIBOR Loans.

(a) If any Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, in each case after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01, (ii) the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any net income taxes and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes (however denominated) payable by such Lender (including additions to tax, penalties and interest with respect thereto), (iii) taxes (including additions to tax, penalties and interest) excluded from the definition of Taxes pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or described in Section 3.01(d)

149

or 10.15(a)(iii), or (iv) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time within 15 days after demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law, in each case after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within 15 days after receipt of such demand.

(c) The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including LIBOR funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the LIBOR Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Lead Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.

(d) Subject to Section 3.06(b), failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b) or (c) for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Lead Borrower of its intention to demand, compensation therefor; provided, further that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

150

(e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Lead Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts at Borrowers’ expense to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided, further that nothing in this Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d).

(f) [Reserved].

Section 3.05 Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (collectively, “Breakage Costs”) incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(b) any failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Lead Borrower;

including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Loan made by it at LIBOR for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Loan was in fact so funded.

Section 3.06 Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

(a) Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Lead Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, no Borrower shall be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Lead Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrowers under Section 3.04, the Borrowers may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another LIBOR Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

151

(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another any LIBOR Loan, or to convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b), such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

(d) If any Lender gives notice to the Lead Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 3.07 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time (i) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make LIBOR Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Lead Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Class or Classes of Loans or Commitments that are the subject of the related consent, waiver or amendment) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; and provided, further that (A) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for

152

compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender under Section 3.07(d)(i), the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents, and (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender under Section 3.07(d)(ii), the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have provided the applicable confirmations.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements and Swingline Loans, as applicable, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements and Swingline Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned and all other amounts owing by the Borrowers to the assigning Lenders including, if applicable, the compensation or payments giving rise to the required assignment shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or the Borrowers, if applicable) to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrowers, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Lender that acts as the Issuing Bank may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (including the furnishing of a back-up Standby Letter of Credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank or the depositing of cash collateral into a Cash Collateral Account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank) have been made with respect to each such outstanding Letter of Credit and the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.09.

(d) A Lender shall be a “Non-Consenting Lender” if:

(i) (A) the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders (or the Lenders with respect to any Class) consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (B) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders relating to such Class) in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 or all the Lenders (or all Lenders of such Class), (C) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, and (D) such Lender has not agreed to such consent, waiver, or amendment; or

153

(ii) (A) a Lender shall have been notified by the Administrative Agent of any contemplated Additional Credit Amendment, Extension Amendment, or Additional Extension Amendment, or other amendment hereto which has the effect of extending the Maturity Date, and such Lender shall not, for whatever reason, have provided to the Lead Borrower all of such Lender’s confirmations under Section 10.25 within the time period specified in Section 10.25, and (B) the Required Lenders (or, if applicable only to a certain Class, the Required Lenders determined with respect to such Class) shall have provided such confirmation within such time period.

(e) In connection with any replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender under Section 3.07(a), if the Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (i) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (ii) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Lead Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender.

Section 3.08 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 3.09 Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(a) Benchmark Replacement.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(iii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any

154

Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be on a monthly basis.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (2) shall not be effective unless Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and Lead Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Lead Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 3.09(d) below, and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.09, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.09.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not

155

displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by Administrative Agent in its discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon Lead Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Lead Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Lead Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

(f) London Interbank Offered Rate Benchmark Transition Event. On March 5, 2021, the IBA, the administrator of the London interbank offered rate, and the FCA, the regulatory supervisor of the IBA, made Announcements that the final publication or representativeness date for Dollars for (i) 1-week and 2-month London interbank offered rate tenor settings will be December 31, 2021, and (ii) overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month London interbank offered rate tenor settings will be June 30, 2023. No successor administrator for the IBA was identified in such Announcements. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the Announcements resulted in the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to the London interbank offered rate pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and that any obligation of Administrative Agent to notify any parties of such Benchmark Transition Event pursuant to Section 3.09(c) shall be deemed satisfied.

ARTICLE IX

Agents

Section 9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each the Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article IX and in the definition of “Agent-Related Person” included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Bank.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “Collateral Agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, Swingline Lender (if applicable), Issuing Bank (if applicable) and a potential Bank Product Provider) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “Collateral Agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX (including Section 9.07, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

217

Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact, such sub-agents as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

Section 9.03 Liability of Agents. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Agents.

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message or other electronic method of transmission, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party or a Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

218

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Fifth Restatement Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

Section 9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

Section 9.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

219

Section 9.07 Indemnification of Agents. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), on an Aggregate Pro Rata Share basis, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its Aggregate Pro Rata Share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrowers’ continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.08 Agents in their Individual Capacities. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties, the Guarantors and their respective Affiliates as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party, such Guarantor or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

220

Section 9.09 Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrowers at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which consent of the Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent”, shall mean such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding;

221

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and

(c) any custodian, receiver, receiver and manager, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11 and 10.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

(a) It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”).

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Sections 10.04 and 10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.

224

(c) Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrowers shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

Section 9.14 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties thereto, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses.

Section 9.15 Reports and Financial Statements.

By signing this Agreement, each Lender (and with respect to clause (a), each Secured Party):

(a) agrees to furnish the Administrative Agent on the first day of each month (or such other times as may be permitted, or may be reasonably requested, by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) with a summary of all Other Liabilities due or to become due to such Lender, including amounts due and owing under Secured Hedge Agreements (including the Swap Termination Value under Secured Hedge Agreements) (it being agreed that in the absence of an updated summary, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the applicable Bank Product Provider, Hedge Bank, or Lender or Affiliate of a Lender providing Cash Management Services, as applicable, is the amount last certified to the Administrative Agent by such Person as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Person on account thereof));

(b) is deemed to have requested that the Agents furnish such Lender, promptly after they become available, copies of all financial statements required to be delivered by the Lead Borrower under Section 6.01(a) through and including Section 6.01(f), and all field examinations and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Agents (collectively, the “Reports”) (and the Agents agree to furnish such Reports promptly to the Lenders, which Reports may be furnished in accordance with the final paragraph of Section 6.01);

225

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that no Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report;

(d) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Agents or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel;

(e) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, and not to distribute, or use any Report in any other manner, subject to the same exceptions provided with respect to the Information furnished by the Borrowers to the Lenders set forth in Section 10.08, mutatis mutandis; and

(f) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold each Agent preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any Credit Extensions that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, Revolving Loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold each Agent preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agents preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender in violation of the terms hereof.

Section 9.16 Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees to be bound by each Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Each Lender (and each person that becomes a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 10.07) hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into each Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender and agrees that the Administrative Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of each Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements), are subject to the provisions of the Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, on the one hand, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements), on the other hand, the terms of the Acceptable Intercreditor Agreements shall govern and control.

226

Section 9.17 Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Administrative Agent (x) notifies a Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Secured Party (any such Secured Party or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Administrative Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient or any other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment, or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution, or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 9.17 and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Payment Recipient shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Secured Party (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment, or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment, or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution, or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment, or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment, or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment, or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Secured Party or other such recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

(i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

227

(ii) such Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment, or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.17(b).

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.17(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 9.17(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

(c) Each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net, and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Secured Party under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrative Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).

(d) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Secured Party) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge, or otherwise satisfy any Obligations or Secured Obligations (as defined in the Security Agreement) owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 9.17 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrowers relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense, or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

228

Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Secured Party, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations and / or Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Holdings nor the Borrowers may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than (1) the Lead Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates, (2) an entity designated in writing by the Lead Borrower as a “disqualified lender” on or prior to the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (each such “disqualified lender”, a “Disqualified Lender”), (3) a Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, (4) any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would be a Defaulting Lender, or (5) any natural person) (“Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b), participations in Letters of Credit and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

235

(A) the Lead Borrower, provided that no consent of the Lead Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund, or if a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(C) each Issuing Bank at the time of such assignment, provided that no consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required for any assignment to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent; and

(D) the Swingline Lender.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Lead Borrower shall be required if a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption; and

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04,

236

3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Notes, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver new Notes to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(e).

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans, Letters of Credit, Letter of Credit Outstandings and amounts due under Sections 2.08 and 2.09 owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Agent and any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Disqualified Lender, or the Lead Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.07(f), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 (subject to the requirements of Section 10.15), 3.04 and 3.05 (through the applicable Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

237

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Lead Borrower’s prior written consent. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Lead Borrower’s, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed Treasury Regulations (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any such Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice for the limited purpose set forth in the proviso above in this clause (f). For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may

238

(i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Notes, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Notes, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Lead Borrower and the Lenders, resign as the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, respectively; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall have identified, in consultation with the Lead Borrower, a successor Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender willing to accept its appointment as successor Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as applicable. In the event of any such resignation of the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, the Lead Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Revolving Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided that no failure by the Lead Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If the Issuing Bank resigns as an “Issuing Bank”, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as the Issuing Bank and all Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in the Letter of Credit Outstandings pursuant to Section 2.08(c)). If the Swingline Lender resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.05.

Section 10.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information and to not use or disclose such information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority; (c) to the extent

239

required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Lead Borrower), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g), counterparty to a Swap Contract or to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (f) with the written consent of the Lead Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; (h) to any Governmental Authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating any Lender; (i) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender); or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Borrowings. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors or agents, relating to Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08.

Each Borrower Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may make materials or information provided by or on behalf of Holdings and its Subsidiaries hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) available to the Lenders by posting the communications on IntraLinks, SyndTrak, or a substantially similar secure electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Administrative Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Borrower Materials or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Borrower Materials or the Platform. Each of Holdings and the Borrowers (and each other Loan Party by virtue of its execution and delivery of the Guaranty) further agrees that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Agent and its Affiliates and the Lenders to treat Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” or otherwise at any time filed with the SEC as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws. All Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor” (or another similar term). The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and the Lenders shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” or that are not at any time filed with the SEC as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor” (or such other similar term).

240

Section 10.09 Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates and each Issuing Bank and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Lead Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Lead Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or the Issuing Bank and its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or the Issuing Bank and its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness; provided that, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.24 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender or its Affiliates and no Issuing Bank or its Affiliates shall have a right to set off and apply any deposits held or other Indebtedness owing by such Lender or its Affiliates or the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary of a Loan Party which is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code unless such Subsidiary is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Borrowers. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees promptly to notify the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Issuing Bank may have.

Section 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Lead Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

241

Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed by means of (a) an electronic signature that complies with the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other relevant and applicable electronic signatures law; (b) an original manual signature; or (c) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature. Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. The Administrative Agent reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept, deny, or condition acceptance of any electronic signature on this Agreement or any other Loan Document. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute only one instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other Loan Document as set forth herein will be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of the Agreement or such other Loan Document, as applicable. Each of the parties hereto represents and warrants to the other parties that it has the corporate capacity and authority to execute the Agreement and each other Loan Document through electronic means and there are no restrictions for doing so in that party’s constitutive documents.

Section 10.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

Section 10.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

242

Section 10.15 Tax Forms.

(a) (i) Each Lender and Agent that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date which is ten Business Days after the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two duly signed, properly completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent stockholder within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrowers within the meaning of Section 864(d) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, (A) promptly submit to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such forms or certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid or reduce any United States federal withholding tax, or such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrowers or other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete, (2) after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and (3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and (B) promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in the Lender’s circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit any Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

243

(ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Foreign Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent (in either case, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Foreign Lender as set forth above, to establish that the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Foreign Lender acts for its own account is not subject to United States federal withholding tax or is subject to a reduced rate of such tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Foreign Lender is required to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Foreign Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Foreign Lender and that such portion is not subject to United States federal withholding tax or is subject to a reduced rate of such tax.

(iii) The Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amount or any indemnity payment under Section 3.01 with respect to any U.S. federal withholding tax resulting from (A) any Foreign Lender’s failure to comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.15(a), (B) any U.S. Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.15(b) or (C) any Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.15(c); provided nothing in this Section 10.15(a) shall relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that Section 10.15(a)(ii) has not been complied with if the Borrowers are entitled, under applicable Law, to rely (for purposes of establishing that the amounts payable under the Loan Documents are not subject to United States federal withholding tax) on any applicable forms and statements required to be provided under this Section 10.15 and that have been provided by the Foreign Lender that does not act or has ceased to act for its own account under any of the Loan Documents.

(iv) The Administrative Agent may deduct and withhold any taxes required by any Laws to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents.

(b) Each Lender and Agent that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower two duly signed, properly completed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any successor thereto, certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax (i) on or prior to the Fifth Restatement Effective Date (or on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement), (ii) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, (iii) after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (iv) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

246

banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provision of this Section 10.20 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

Section 10.21 USA PATRIOT Act; CAML.

In addition, Agent and each Lender shall have the right to periodically conduct due diligence on all Loan Parties, their senior management and key principals and legal and beneficial owners. Each Loan Party agrees to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such due diligence and further agrees that the reasonable costs and charges for any such due diligence by Agent shall be at the expense of the Borrowers. If any Borrower qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation (after giving effect to exemptions thereunder), the Lead Borrower shall cause such Borrower to provide a Beneficial Ownership Certification promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender and thereafter provide information and documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection therewith for purposes of compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of a Borrower or Loan Party or any authorized signatories of a Borrower or a Loan Party for the purposes of applicable CAML, then the Administrative Agent: (i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Lender and the Administrative Agent within the meaning of applicable CAML; and (ii) shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lenders agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of Borrowers or any Loan Party or any authorized signatories of Borrowers or any Loan Party on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from Borrowers or any Loan Party or any such authorized signatory in doing so.
