Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) Protective Advances. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any conditions in Section 4.02 are not satisfied, to make loans (any such loans made pursuant to this Section 2.01(c), “Protective Advances”) (a) up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) $5,000,000 and (y) 10.00% of the Borrowing Base outstanding at any time, if the Administrative Agent reasonably deems such Protective Advances necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Senior Credit Obligations; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. Protective Advances shall constitute Senior Credit Obligations secured by the Collateral and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of the Loan Documents. Immediately upon the making of a Protective Advance, each applicable Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Administrative Agent a risk participation in such Protective Advance in the following order (x) first, each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Protective Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the principal amount of such Protective Advance to the extent such purchase does not cause the Tranche 2 Available Commitments to decrease below zero (a “Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participation”) and (y) second, each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Protective Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the principal amount of such Protective Advance to the extent risk participations were not purchased pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (x) (a “Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participation” and together with the Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations, the “Protective Advance Participations”). The Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations shall automatically convert to Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations at the end of each day to the extent that the Tranche 2 Available Commitments exceed zero at the end of such day. The Supermajority Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. In no event shall a Protective Advance be made if , after giving effect thereto, (A) the sum (without duplication) of (I) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (II) all Unpaid L/C Lender Amounts of all of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (III) all Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amounts of all of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders would exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 1 Borrowing Base at such time, (B) the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such

-1-

Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment, (C) the sum of (without duplication) (I) the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (II) all Unpaid L/C Lender Amounts of all of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (III) all Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amounts of all of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders would exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 2 Borrowing Base at such time, (D) the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of any Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitment or (E) the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Revolving Credit Lenders would exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base at such time.

(g) At any time that any Protective Advance is outstanding, the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan or Swing Line Loan that is made shall first be applied to the repayment of such Protective Advance upon the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or Swing Line Loan.

Section 2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(d) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Lead Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (i) not later than 2:00 p.m. three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) not later than 12:00 noon on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (but with respect to the initial Credit Extension, one Business Day prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans); provided, however, that if the Lead Borrower wishes to request Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m., three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Revolving Credit Lenders. Each telephonic notice by the Lead Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Lead Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in an amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), 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 (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Lead Borrower is requesting a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Borrowing, a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate 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 Revolving Credit 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 if the Lead Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan to the extent of the aggregate Tranche 2 Revolving Credit

-2-

Commitments and then as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan. 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Lead Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.03(c), the Lead Borrower shall not request, and the Tranche 1 Lenders shall be under no obligation to fund, any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the amount of the Tranche 2 Available Commitments would be greater than zero. If any Tranche 2 Loan is prepaid in whole or part pursuant to Section 2.05, any Loans to the Lead Borrower thereafter requested shall be Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans for so long as the Tranche 2 Available Commitments would be greater than zero after giving effect thereto.

(f) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify (x) each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of a Committed Loan Notice with respect to Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans, of the amount of its Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage under the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility of the applicable Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and (y) each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of a Committed Loan Notice with respect to Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans, of the amount of its Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage under the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility of the applicable Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Lead Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Revolving Credit Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of (a) a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent and (b) a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in each case in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars 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 the initial Credit Extension, 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 either by (i) crediting the account of the Lead Borrower on the books of Citibank with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Lead Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date a Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan or Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan is given by the Lead Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds thereof shall be applied to the payment in full of any Tranche 1 L/C Borrowing and Tranche 2 L/C Borrowing, respectively and second, shall be made available to the Lead Borrower as provided above.

(g) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders.

(h) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of any change in Administrative

-1-

Agent’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(i) After giving effect to all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than nine (9) Interest Periods in effect in respect of any Revolving Credit Loans.

(ii) No L/C Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit if:

(iv) The applicable L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(v) The applicable L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(vi) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(v) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Lead Borrower delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Lead Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably require.

Additionally, the Lead Borrower shall furnish to the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

-2-

thereof. Unless the applicable L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Lead Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Such L/C Issuer shall issue any such Letters of Credit for the account of the Lead Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendments, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance or increase of each Letter of Credit in accordance with the above restrictions (including Section 2.03(a)(i) and the proviso thereto), each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in the following order (x) first, each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of an increase of a Letter of Credit, in the amount so increased) in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of an increase to a Letter of Credit, the amount of such increase) to the extent such purchase does not cause the Tranche 1 Available Commitments to decrease below zero (a “Tranche 1 L/C Participation”) and (y) second, each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of an increase of a Letter of Credit, in the amount so increased) in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of an increase to a Letter of Credit, the amount of such increase) to the extent risk participations were not purchased pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (x) (a “Tranche 2 L/C Participation” and together with the Tranche 1 L/C Participations, the “L/C Participations”). The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.03 shall not relieve any Revolving Credit Lender of its L/C Participations therein; provided that the Tranche 2 L/C Participations shall automatically convert to Tranche 1 L/C Participations at the end of each day to the extent that the Tranche 1 Available Commitments exceed zero at the end of such day.

(vii) If the Lead Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree that a Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for one or more additional successive periods not to exceed twelve months each, unless the applicable L/C Issuer, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects not to extend for any such additional periods (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, the Lead Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall permit any such extension if (A) such L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any

-3-

Revolving Credit Lender or the Lead Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the applicable L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(viii) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than the later of (A) 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”) or (B) 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately following the date that notice is given pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (a “Drawing”). If the Lead Borrower fails to so reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer by such time, such L/C Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent who shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s (x) Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of all Tranche 2 L/C Participations outstanding at such time (such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s “Tranche 2 L/C Reimbursement Percentage”) and (y) Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of all Tranche 1 L/C Participations outstanding at such time (such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s “Tranche 1 L/C Reimbursement Percentage”). In such event, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Borrowing to the extent the Tranche 2 Available Commitments would not be less than zero after giving effect thereto and as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Borrowing thereafter) to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an aggregate amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Tranche 1 Available Commitments and Tranche 2 Available Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. If an L/C Issuer shall make any Drawing, then, unless a Borrower shall have reimbursed such Drawing in full on the date such Drawing is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on demand, for each day from and including the date such Drawing is made to and including the Honor Date, at the interest rate then in effect for Tranche 2 Base Rate Loans to the extent the Tranche 2 Available Commitments would not be less than zero if such Drawing were a Tranche 2 Base Rate Loan and at the rate then in effect for Tranche 1 Base Rate Loans thereafter, and thereafter, at the rate per annum determined pursuant to Section 2.08(b) for Tranche 2 Base Rate Loans or Tranche 1 Base Rate Loans, as the case may be, until (but excluding) the date that Borrowers reimburse such Drawing. Interest accrued pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to

-4-

Section 2.03(c)(ii) or (iii) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer shall be for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Tranche 1 L/C Reimbursement Percentage and its Tranche 2 L/C Reimbursement Percentage (if any) of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each such Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan (as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan to the extent the Tranche 2 Available Commitments of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender would not be less than zero after giving effect thereto and as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan thereafter) to the Lead Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer (x) to the extent the Tranche 2 Available Commitments would not be less than zero (after giving effect to the decrease in the Tranche 2 Available Commitments referred to later in this clause), an extension of credit in the amount of such L/C Participations (a “Tranche 2 L/C Borrowing”), which shall decrease the Tranche 2 Available Commitments by the amount of such Tranche 2 L/C Borrowing and (y) after the Tranche 2 Available Commitments are zero, an extension of credit in the remaining amount of such L/C Participations (a “Tranche 1 L/C Borrowing”; the Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings and the Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings are collectively referred to as the “L/C Borrowings”), which shall decrease the Tranche 1 Available Commitments by the amount of such Tranche 1 L/C Borrowing, in each case to the extent the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowings shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate for Tranche 2 Base Rate Loans in the case of Tranche 2 L/C Borrowings and Tranche 1 Base Rate Loans in the case of Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its Tranche 1 L/C Participation and Tranche 2 L/C Participation, as the case may be, in such L/C Borrowing in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03 and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Credit Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of such L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or fund L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the applicable L/C Issuer, the Lead Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance

-5-

of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Lead Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such funding of an L/C Advance or Revolving Credit Loan shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Lead Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of any L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii) (an “Unpaid L/C Lender Amount”), the applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such Unpaid L/C Lender Amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Credit Lender pays such Unpaid L/C Lender Amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 1 L/C Participations, or Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 2 L/C Participations, included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s funding of its L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Lead Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender in the same proportion as to which such Revolving Credit Lender funded such Unreimbursed Amount in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer (a) to the extent such payment related to a Drawing under a Letter of Credit covered by Tranche 1 L/C Participations, Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage thereof and (b) to the extent such payment related to a Drawing under a Letter of Credit covered by Tranche 2 L/C Participations, Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage thereof, in each case on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Credit Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the

-6-

Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause (ii) shall survive the payment in full of the Senior Credit Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Lead Borrower to reimburse each L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Lead Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the applicable L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Lead Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the Lead Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such L/C Issuer as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such L/C Issuer.

The Lead Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Lead Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Lead Borrower will immediately notify the applicable L/C Issuer.

(f) Role of L/C Issuers. Each Revolving Credit Lender and the Lead Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no L/C Issuer shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Revolving Credit Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders; (ii) any action taken or

-7-

omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers’ pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lead Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Lead Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrowers which the Lead Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Lead Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. Sections 2.05 and 8.02(iii) set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.03, Section 2.05 and Section 8.02(iii), “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer and the Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Participations, as collateral for the applicable L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Participations). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each L/C Issuer and the Revolving Credit Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Citibank. If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all such L/C Obligations, the Lead Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of such funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer.

(h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Lead Borrower 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 Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published

-8-

by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Lead Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the proportion its Tranche 1 L/C Participations represent of all amounts available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit a Letter of Credit fee (the “Tranche 1 Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. The Lead Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the proportion its Tranche 2 L/C Participations represent of all amounts available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit a Letter of Credit fee (the “Tranche 2 Letter of Credit Fee” and together with the Tranche 1 Letter of Credit Fee, the “Letter of Credit Fees”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each standby Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. For the avoidance of doubt, all Letter of Credit Fees attributable to periods prior to the Restatement Date shall accrue at the rate in effect prior to the Restatement Date.

(j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges to L/C Issuers. The Lead Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum equal to 0.25%, computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition, the Lead Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(l) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Lead Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse each L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Lead Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Lead Borrower, and that the Lead Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

-9-

(m) Reporting. Each L/C Issuer will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such L/C Issuer shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer funds any L/C Participation, the date and amount of such L/C Participation and (iv) on any Business Day on which the Lead Borrower fails to reimburse an L/C Participation required to be reimbursed to such L/C Issuer on such day, the date and amount of such failure.

Section 2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion and in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Lead Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Loan Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to the making of any Swing Line Loan (other than Protective Advances) (A) the sum (without duplication) of (I) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (II) all Unpaid L/C Lender Amounts of all of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (III) all Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amounts of all of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 1 Borrowing Base at such time, (B) the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall not exceed such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment, (C) the sum of (without duplication) (I) the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (II) all Unpaid L/C Lender Amounts of all of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders plus (III) all Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amounts of all of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 2 Borrowing Base at such time, (D) the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of any Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall not exceed such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitment and (E) the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Revolving Credit Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base at such time; provided, further, that the Lead Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Lead Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest only at a rate based on the Base Rate. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender risk participations in such Swing Line Loan as Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations and Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations in the manner set forth in Section 2.04(b).

-10-

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Lead Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Lead Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. If the Swing Line Lender determines, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, that it shall make such requested Swing Line Loan to the Lead Borrower in accordance with the Swing Line Loan Notice, and unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (I) the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice make a Swing Line Loan, in the requested amount and (II) each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in the following order (x) first, each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan to the extent such purchase does not cause the Tranche 2 Available Commitments to decrease below zero (a “Tranche 2 Swing Line Participation”) and (y) second, each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage times the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan to the extent risk participations were not purchased pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (x) (a “Tranche 1 Swing Line Participation” and together with the Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, the “Swing Line Participations”). The Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations shall automatically convert to Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations at the end of each day to the extent that the Tranche 2 Available Commitments exceed zero at the end of such day.

(iii) The Swing Line Lender at any time (but no less frequently than once a week) in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Lead Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), (x) that each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Loan as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan and (y) that each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Loan as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan, in each such case in an amount equal to (I) such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the amount of all Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations then outstanding (such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s “Tranche 1 Swing Line Reimbursement Percentage”) and (II) such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the amount of all Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations then outstanding (such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s “Tranche 2 Swing Line Reimbursement Percentage”). Each such request shall be made in writing (which written

-1-

request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, the unutilized portion of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments, the unutilized portion of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments, and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Lead Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each (A) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its Tranche 1 Swing Line Reimbursement Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice and (B) Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its Tranche 2 Swing Line Reimbursement Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice, in each case in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each such Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Lead Borrower in such amount, as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, and as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(iv) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that (x) each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, and (y) each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, fund its respective Swing Line Participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such Swing Line Participations.

(v) If (x) any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, or (y) any Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i) (an “Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amount”), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If any such (x) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations or (y) Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, pays such Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amount so paid shall constitute (x) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, or (y) Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, in each case included in the relevant

-2-

Borrowing or funded Swing Line Participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any such Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amount owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(vi) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund Swing Line Participations pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Lead Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(vi) At any time after any (x) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, or (y) Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, has purchased and funded a Swing Line Participation, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to (x) such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, its Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender or (y) such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, its Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(vii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each (x) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage thereof and (y) each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage thereof, in each case on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Senior Credit Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Lead Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until (x) each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, funds its Base Rate Loan as a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Tranche 1 Swing Line Participation, or (y) each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, funds its Base Rate Loan as a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Tranche 2 Swing Line

-3-

Participation, interest in respect of such Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage or Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Lead Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender. At any time a Swing Line Loan is outstanding and the Lead Borrower requests a Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may require the Lead Borrower to (i) utilize a portion of the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing in an amount of such outstanding Swing Line Loan to repay such Swing Line Loan or (ii) at the Lead Borrower’s option, but subject to compliance with Section 2.01, to increase the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing by up to an amount of such outstanding Swing Line Loan and utilize such increase to repay such Swing Line Loan. The Administrative Agent shall apply the relevant portion of the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing to repayment of such Swing Line Loan as specified above.

Section 2.05 Prepayments.

(a) Optional.

(vii) Subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.05(a)(i) and subject to Section 2.05(a)(iii), the Borrowers may, upon notice by the Lead Borrower to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that: (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (1) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (2) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (B) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and (C) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (x) notify each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans of its receipt of each such notice and of the amount of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage in respect of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility) and (y) notify each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans of its receipt of each such notice and of the amount of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage in respect of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility).

(ix) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(a) which permit voluntary prepayments of the Loans, except as provided in Section 2.05(b), only if all Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans (to the extent there are any Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations in such Swing Line Loans) are repaid in full may the Borrowers prepay amounts owed with respect to the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans (to the extent there are any Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations in such Swing Line Loans); provided, however, that any such prepayment shall not reduce or terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments. In addition, the Borrowers may also repay Loans as required upon any reduction or termination of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b) Mandatory.

If for any reason (1) the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders at any time exceeds the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 1 Borrowing Base at such time (except as a result of Protective Advances permitted under Section 2.01(c)) or (2) the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of all Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders at any time exceeds the lesser of (x) the aggregate Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the Tranche 2 Borrowing Base at such time (except as a result of Protective Advances permitted under Section 2.01(c)), then the Borrowers shall promptly prepay Loans, L/C Borrowings and L/C Advances and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (other than L/C Borrowings) in the order of priority set forth below in Section 2.05(b)(ii) (it being understood that the L/C Obligations (other than L/C Borrowings) will not be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of this Section 2.05(b)(i) to the extent they are Cash Collateralized).

(viii) Application to Revolving Credit Facility. Subject to Section 2.12(b), prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility made pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i) first, shall be applied ratably to pay accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the outstanding (A) Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings, (B) Swing Line Loans (to the extent there are any Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations in such Swing Line Loans) and (C) Protective Advances (to the extent there are any Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations in such Protective Advances), in each case to the extent such Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and Protective Advances are required to be prepaid in order to ensure any excesses referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 2.05(b)(i) are cured, second, shall be applied ratably to prepay the principal of any outstanding (A) Tranche 1 L/C Borrowing, (B) Swing Line Loans (to the extent there are any Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations in such Swing Line Loans) and (C) Protective Advances (to the extent there are any Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations in such Protective Advances), in each case to the extent such Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and Protective Advances are required to be prepaid in order to ensure any excesses referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 2.05(b)(i) are cured (and any Unpaid L/C Lender Amounts and Unpaid Swing Line Loan Amounts relating to such Tranche 1 L/C Borrowings and Swing Line Loans shall be paid ratably with the foregoing amounts referred to in this clause second), third, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding principal of (A) Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and (B) L/C Advances owing to Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders in their capacity as such, and any accrued and unpaid interest on the foregoing, in each case to the extent such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and

Section 2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Optional. The Lead Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Revolving Credit Facility, the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments, the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Loan Sublimit, or from time to time permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Facility, the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments, the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Loan Sublimit; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (iii) the Lead Borrower shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Revolving Credit Facility if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, (B) the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments if, after

Section 2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(i) and (j):

(a) Commitment Fee. The Lead Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent:

(iv) for the account of each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender (other than to any Defaulting Lender for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender) in accordance with its Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Tranche 1 Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Fee Rate times the average daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender exceeds the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender (excluding

-1-

when calculating such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations and the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations of such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender); and

(v) for the account of each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender (other than to any Defaulting Lender for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender) in accordance with its Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Tranche 2 Commitment Fee”, and together with the Tranche 1 Commitment Fee, the “Commitment Fees”) equal to the Applicable Fee Rate times the average daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitment of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender exceeds the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender (excluding when calculating such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposure, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations and the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations of such Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender).

The commitment fees shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fees shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Fee Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Fee Rate was in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, all commitment fees attributable to periods prior to the Restatement Date shall accrue at the rate in effect prior to the Restatement Date.

(b) Other Fees.

(1) The Lead Borrower shall pay to the Bookrunners and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter and the Administrative Agent Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

(2) The Lead Borrower shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

Section 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate and Applicable Fee Rate.

(a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Citibank’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 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 (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). 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 2.12(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.

-1-

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of any Loan Party or for any other reason, the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent determine that (i) the Average Excess Availability as calculated by the Lead Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Average Excess Availability would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Lead Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Lead Borrower under the Debtor Relief Laws, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(i) or 2.08(b) or under Article VIII. The Lead Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Senior Credit Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.11 Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained in good faith 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 Senior Credit 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 Lead Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans 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 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit, Swing Line Loans and Protective Advances. 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.

Section 2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. 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 for 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 Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Subject to clause (b) below, the Administrative Agent will promptly distribute (x) to each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of payments with respect to the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility, its

Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage in respect of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment and (y) to each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of payments with respect to the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility, its Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage in respect of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment, in each case in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 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.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Applicable Adjusted Percentage” means, with respect to any Revolving Credit Lender at any time, its percentage of the Revolving Credit Facility computed as set forth in the definition of “Applicable Percentage” but with reference only to the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Non-Defaulting Lenders at such time. Absent the existence of one or more Defaulting Lenders at any time of determination, the Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Revolving Credit Lender shall equal its Applicable Percentage. The Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Revolving Credit Lender shall adjust automatically whenever a Lender Default occurs or ceases to exist.

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage” means, with respect to any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender at any time, its percentage of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility computed as set forth in the definition of “Applicable Percentage” but with reference only to the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments of all Non-Defaulting Lenders at such time. Absent the existence of one or more Defaulting Lenders at any time of determination, the Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall equal its Tranche 1 Applicable Percentage. The Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall adjust automatically whenever a Lender Default occurs or ceases to exist.

(iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage” means, with respect to any Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender at any time, its percentage of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility computed as set forth in the definition of “Applicable Percentage” but with reference only to the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments of all Non-Defaulting Lenders at such time. Absent the existence of one or more Defaulting Lenders at any time of determination, the Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall equal its Tranche 2 Applicable Percentage. The Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of each Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender shall adjust automatically whenever a Lender Default occurs or ceases to exist.

(b) Funding and Payments; Presumptions.

(i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share

-1-

available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by 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, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Lead Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Failed Loans. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to make any Loan (a “Failed Loan”) which such Revolving Credit Lender is otherwise obligated hereunder to make to the Borrowers on the date of Borrowing thereof, and the Administrative Agent shall not have received notice from the Lead Borrower or such Lender that any condition precedent to the making of the Failed Loan has not been satisfied, then, until such Revolving Credit Lender shall have made or be deemed to have made (pursuant to the last sentence of this subsection (b)(ii)) the Failed Loan in full or the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Lead Borrower or such Revolving Credit Lender that any condition precedent to the making of the Failed Loan was not satisfied at the time the Failed Loan was to have been made, whenever the Administrative Agent shall receive any amount from or for the account of the Borrowers on account of any Borrowing of the Revolving Credit Loans, (i) the amount so received will, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, be distributed in the following order of priority: first, to the Revolving Credit Lenders on account of the Revolving Credit Loans made by them as part of the Borrowing that would have included the Failed Loan had the relevant Revolving Credit Lender not failed to fund its Failed Loan, ratably among such Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the respective Revolving Credit Loans made by them as part of such Borrowing, second, to all other Revolving Credit Loans made by the Revolving Credit Lenders other than the Defaulting Lenders, ratably among such Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the respective Revolving Credit Loans made by them, and third, to the Revolving Credit Loans made by the Defaulting Lenders; provided, however, that with respect to any voluntary prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans, unless the application of such voluntary prepayment according to the order of payments specified above would not result in any Borrower becoming subject to compensation requirements pursuant to Section 3.05, the Lead Borrower may specifically designate in its prepayment notice delivered in accordance with the terms hereof that the amount received by the Administrative Agent as the result of such voluntary prepayment shall be applied to an outstanding Borrowing that does not include a Failed Loan, in which case such amount shall be applied to such prior Borrowing prior to being applied to the Borrowing that includes the Failed Loan.

-2-

(iii) Defaulted Amounts. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to make any payment (the “Defaulted Amount”) to any Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender, whether on account of a Protective Advance Participation, Swing Line Participation or L/C Participation or otherwise, whenever the Administrative Agent shall receive any amount from or for the account of the Borrowers for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender (other than as described in clause (ii) of this Section 2.12(b)), the amount so received will, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, be distributed in the following order of priority: first, the Agents for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to them (other than on account of any Protective Advances), in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to the Agents, second, to the Administrative Agent (on account of any Protective Advances), the L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to them, in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to such Lenders, and third, to any other Lenders for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lenders, ratably in accordance with such respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Lenders. Any portion of such amount paid by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender remaining, after giving effect to the amount applied by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause (iii), shall be applied or held by the Administrative Agent as specified in clause (iv) of this Section 2.12(b).

(iv) Distribution of Certain Amounts. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender that (x) does not, at any time owe a Failed Loan or a Defaulted Amount or (y) does owe a Failed Loan but the amount received from or for the account of the Borrowers referred to below is designated by the Lead Borrower (in accordance with clause (ii) above) for application to a Borrowing that does not include a Failed Loan, in each case whenever the Administrative Agent shall receive any amount from or for the account of the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender, the amount so received will, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, be held without interest by the Administrative Agent and applied from time to time to the extent necessary to make any Revolving Credit Loans required to be made by such Defaulting Lender and to pay any amount payable by such Defaulting Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender, as and when such Revolving Credit Loans or amounts are required to be made or paid. If the amount so held shall at any time be insufficient to make and pay all such Revolving Credit Loans and amounts required to be made or paid at such time, the Administrative Agent shall apply such held funds in the following order of priority: first, to the Agents for any amounts then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to them hereunder (other than on account of any Protective Advances), in their capacities as such, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to the Agents, second, to the Administrative Agent (on account of any outstanding Protective Advances) L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender for any amounts then due and payable to them hereunder, in their capacities as such, by such Defaulting Lender, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to such Lenders, and third, to any other Lenders for any amount then due and payable by such Defaulting Lender to such other Lenders hereunder, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to such other Lenders. In the event that any Defaulting Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender, any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time with respect to such Lender shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Lender and applied by such Lender Party to the Senior Credit Obligations owing to such Lender at such time under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of such Senior Credit Obligations outstanding at such time.

-3-

(v) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Lead Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment 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.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Lead Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. 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 Borrowers 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.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Credit Loans, to fund L/C Participations, Swing Line Participations and Protective Advance Participations and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) 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, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(e) Funding Source. 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.

(f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder (other than in respect of Bank Product Debt), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (ii) second, toward payment of principal amount of any L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and any Protective Advances ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties and (iii) third, toward payment of principal and Bank Product Debt then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.

Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (i) Senior Credit Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its

-4-

ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Senior Credit Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Senior Credit Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Senior Credit Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (ii) Senior Credit Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Senior Credit Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Senior Credit Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Parties at such time) of payment on account of the Senior Credit Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans and Protective Advances of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Senior Credit Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that:

(vi) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(vii) the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, (B) any payment obtained pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans or Protective Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Lead Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.14 Increase in Revolving Credit Facility.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect thereto, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Lead Borrower may from time to time, request an increase (each a “Facility Increase”) in the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $20,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for a Facility Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Lead Borrower may make a maximum of four (4) such requests. At the time of sending such notice, the Lead Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). All Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to any such Facility Increase (i) are herein referred to herein as

-1-

“Tranche 1 Additional Loans” and (ii) shall be priced on a basis identical to the existing Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans, Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations and Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations.

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of the requested Facility Increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitment.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to any necessary approval of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Lead Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to any Facility Increase: (i) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 shall have been satisfied both before and after giving effect to such Facility Increase and the Tranche 1 Additional Loans provided thereby (it being understood that all references to “the obligation of any Lender to make a Loan on the occasion of any Borrowing” shall be deemed to refer to the effectiveness of the Facility Increase on the date of the initial funding of the Facility Increase); (ii) the Maturity Date of any Facility Increase shall be coincident with the existing Maturity Date; (iii) all fees and expenses owing in respect of such increase to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall have been paid; and (iv) the Lead Borrower shall have delivered such legal opinions and resolutions in connection therewith as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested. The Tranche 1 Additional Loans shall be made by the Lenders participating therein pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.02.

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.15 Designation of Lead Borrower as Borrowers’ Agent.

(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.

-1-

(b) Each Borrower represents to the Senior 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 Senior Credit 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 Senior 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 the respective Responsible Officers 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 2.16 Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) the commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender so long as it is a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent it is payable to an L/C Issuer pursuant to clause (b)(v) below);

(b) if any Swing Line Loans, L/C Obligations or Protective Advance Participations exist at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Swing Line Loans, L/C Obligations and Protective Advance Participations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders as follows:

(A) all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, Tranche 1 L/C Participations and Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentages, but only to the extent that (1) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations, Tranche 1 L/C Participations and Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and (2) the sum of each non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposures plus that non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such Defaulting Lender’s (x) Tranche 1 Swing Line Participations (y) Tranche 1 L/C Participations and

-1-

(z) Tranche 1 Protective Advance Participations does not exceed the amount of such non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments; and

(B) all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, Tranche 2 L/C Participations and Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentages, but only to the extent that (1) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations, Tranche 2 L/C Participations and Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments and (2) the sum of each non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Exposures plus that non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentage of such Defaulting Lender’s (x) Tranche 2 Swing Line Participations,(y) Tranche 2 L/C Participations and (z) Tranche 2 Protective Advance Participations does not exceed the amount of such non-Defaulting Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Lead Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Participations and Protective Advance Participations and (y) second, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Participations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer;

(iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Lead Borrower shall not be required to pay the Letter of Credit Fee with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations so long as it is Cash Collateralized;

(iv) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is reallocated to the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the Letter of Credit Fee with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Tranche 1 Applicable Adjusted Percentages and Tranche 2 Applicable Adjusted Percentages, respectively; or

(v) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.16(b), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder, the Letter of Credit Fee payable with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer until such L/C Obligations are Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated;

(c) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Lead Borrower, the L/C Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Participations, L/C Participations and Protective Advance Participations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans, Swing Line Participations, L/C Participations and Protective Advance Participations of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Adjusted Percentage. The rights

-1-

and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.16 are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and the non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender. The arrangements permitted or required by this Section 2.16 shall be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding any limitation on Liens or the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 3.01 Taxes.

(j) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as reasonably determined by such withholding agent.

(ii) If any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States federal backup withholding and withholding Taxes, from any payment, then (A) such withholding agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are reasonably determined by such withholding agent to be required by applicable Law, (B) such withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or deductions have been made (including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made.

(k) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

(l) Tax Indemnifications. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Borrowers shall, and do hereby, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 15 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability (along with a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts) delivered to the Lead Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If the Lead Borrower reasonably believes that any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the

-2-

Administrative Agent and/or each affected Lender will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Lead Borrower in pursuing a refund of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of the Administrative Agent or affected Lender, result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be otherwise disadvantageous to it.

(m) Evidence of Payments. After any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Lead Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Lead Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(n) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, at such time or times reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not any payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. Any documentation and information required to be delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.01(e) (including any specific documentation set forth in subsection (ii) below) shall be delivered by such Lender (i) on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement), (ii) on or before any date on which such documentation expires or becomes obsolete, (iii) after the occurrence of any change in the Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent documentation 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, and each such Lender shall promptly notify in writing the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent if such Lender is no longer legally eligible to provide any documentation previously provided.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States:

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and

(B) each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to any payments

-1-

hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form thereto) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(2) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor form thereto);

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0, X-0 or J-4 (a “Non-Bank Certificate”), to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no interest payments are effectively connected income and (y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN;

(4) where such Lender is a partnership (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or otherwise not a beneficial owner (e.g., where such Lender has sold a participation), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto) and all required supporting documentation (including, where one or more of the underlying beneficial owner(s) is claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest exemption, a Non-Bank Certificate of such beneficial owner(s) (provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and not a participating Lender, the Non-Bank Certificate(s) may be provided by the Foreign Lender on behalf of the beneficial owner(s)); or

(5) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.01, no Lender shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is not legally eligible to deliver.

(o) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Subject to the last sentence in Section 3.01(c), at no time shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable) shall pay to the Lead Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Lead

-2-

Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Lead Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. In such event, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, 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 the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that it deems confidential). This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(p) Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 3.01, include any Swing Line Lender and any L/C Issuer.

Section 3.02 Illegality. 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Lead Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate 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 Eurodollar Rate 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Lead Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 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. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (iii) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Lead Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate 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 Eurodollar Rate 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 Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(viii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (or its Lending Office) or any L/C Issuer;

(ix) subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) or L/C Issuer to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Participation Interest in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and any Excluded Taxes);

(x) impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or L/C Participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or any L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or L/C Issuer by delivery of a certificate pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 3.04, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(d) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or L/C Participations held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, upon request by delivery of a certificate pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 3.04, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(e) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or L/C Issuer prepared in good faith setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04 and delivered to the Lead Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof by the Lead Borrower.

-1-

(f) Delays in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or an L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Lead Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or an L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof); provided, further, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer for increased costs or reductions suffered more than nine months after such Change in Law, except that in the case of any such change having retroactive effect such period shall be extended until nine months after the Lender becomes aware of such change.

Section 3.05 Compensation for 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 incurred by it as a result of:

(i) 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 (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(ii) any failure by a Borrower (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.

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 Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

Section 3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(d) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be. The Lead Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(e) Replacement of Lenders. If a Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the

-2-

account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Lead Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

Section 3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Senior Credit Obligations hereunder and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

During the period from January 2, 2010 to and including the Closing Date, except as set forth on Schedule 5.05(a), there has been (i) no sale, transfer or other disposition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any material part of the business or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole and (ii) no purchase or other acquisition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any business or property (including any Equity Interests of any other Person) material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each case, which is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or in the notes thereto or has not otherwise been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date.

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 9.05 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 and Article X (including Section 10.04(c), 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.

Section 9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise

-5-

the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default as such is given to the Administrative Agent by the Lead Borrower, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet

-1-

website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or a L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Lead Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable. The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.

Section 9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Lead Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Lead Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be (i) a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States and (ii) either a Lender or any other Person reasonably acceptable to the Lead Borrower. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 9.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Lead Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.04 shall

-1-

continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Citibank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an L/C Issuer and as the Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of Citibank as a retiring L/C Issuer and as the Swing Line Lender, (ii) Citibank, as a retiring L/C Issuer and as the Swing Line Lender, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations in such capacities hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (iii) a successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by Citibank outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Citibank as a retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of Citibank as issuer of such Letters of Credit.

Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers or other agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Bookrunners, the Arrangers, or other agents listed on the cover page hereof in their respective capacities as such, shall by reason of any Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Loan Party, Lender or any other Person.

Section 9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation 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 Lead Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(x) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Senior Credit 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 Senior Credit Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and (j), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

-1-

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

and any custodian, receiver, 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 Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 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 Finance 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.

Section 9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Cash Management Bank and a potential Hedge Bank) and the L/C Issuers irrevocably agree to (and authorize the Administrative Agent to act in accordance with) the following:

(i) any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (A) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Finance Obligations (other than (x) contingent indemnification obligations and (y) unmatured obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers shall have been made), (B) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than the Borrowers or any of their Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and upon written request from the Lead Borrower identifying the property to be transferred pursuant to this clause (B), the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Lead Borrower within ten Business Days a written acknowledgment that such property shall be automatically released pursuant to this clause (B)), (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.01 or (D) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (ii) below;

(ii) any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person (i) ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or a Material Domestic Subsidiary or (ii) becomes an Excluded Subsidiary; and

(iii) the Administrative Agent shall release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Finance Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(c), (j), (k) or (w).

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will promptly, at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party

-1-

may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 9.10 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent and subject to the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a certification by the Lead Borrower and applicable Loan Party stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and as to such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

Section 9.11 Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. No Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.04, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Finance Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Finance Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

Section 9.12 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from any amount paid to or for the account of any Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by a Borrower and without limiting or expanding the obligation of any Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties, additions to Tax or interest thereon, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Article IX. The agreements in this Article IX shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Loans and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under this Agreement. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C

-1-

Issuer any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender, Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuer.

accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13) or (iv) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (x) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

Section 10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(n) Costs and Expenses. Holdings and the Lead Borrower jointly and severally agree to pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that Holdings and the Lead Borrower shall not be required to reimburse the legal fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (in addition to any special counsel and up to one local counsel in each applicable local jurisdiction) for all Persons indemnified under this subsection (a) unless, in the opinion of counsel, representation of all such indemnified persons would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest.

(o) Indemnification. Holdings and the Lead Borrower, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender each L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonably related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and

-1-

the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Lead Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability of the Lead Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of such Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(p) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Holdings and the Lead Borrower for any reason fail indefeasibly to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04 to be paid by it or them to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), each L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Adjusted Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

(q) Waiver of Consequential Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Borrower or Indemnitee shall assert, and each Borrower and Indemnitee hereby waives, any claim, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(r) Payments. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor; provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such amount to the extent that there is a final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification or contribution rights with respect to such payment pursuant to the express terms of this Section 10.04.

-1-

(s) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Senior Credit Obligations.

Section 10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower or any other Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (i) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender and L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Senior Credit Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(y) Successors and Assigns Generally. 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 the Lead Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(d), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.06(f), or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(g) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer, shall be construed to confer, or shall confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section 10.06 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(z) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.06(b), L/C Participations, Swing Line Participations and Protective Advance Participations) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an

-2-

assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section 10.06, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans, L/C Participations, Swing Line Participations and Protective Advance Participations outstanding thereunder) or, if the Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Lead Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Revolving Credit Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section 10.06 and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Lead Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default under clause (a), (f) or (g) of Section 8.01 has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), an Affiliate of a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) or an Approved Fund;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Revolving Credit Commitment if such assignment is to a Defaulting Lender or to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

(C) the consent of each L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment to a Defaulting Lender or that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment to a Defaulting Lender or in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute (except as otherwise contemplated in the penultimate sentence of Section 10.13) and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and

-1-

recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to the Lead Borrower or any of the Lead Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the 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, 3.05 and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Notes, the Lead Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 10.06(d).

(aa) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Lead Borrower, 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 Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal and interest amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations 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 each Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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 Lead Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or other substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register.

(bb) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, the Lead Borrower or any of the Lead Borrower’s Subsidiaries or 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 Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans and/or Protective Advances) 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 Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers 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

-2-

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 clause (y) of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section 10.06, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of those Sections, including Section 3.01(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b). To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and such Lender (and the applicable Borrower, to the extent that the Participant requests payment from such Borrower) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(cc) Limitation Upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 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 or to the extent that any entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law arising after such Participant became a Participant.

(dd) Certain Pledges. 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 Note, 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.

(ee) Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. 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 or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under Section 2.12(b)(i). Subject to the provisions of this subsection (g), the Loan Parties agree that each SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of those sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. 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 3.04), (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

-3-

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 Revolving Credit Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (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 guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(ff) Resignation as an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Citibank assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 10.06(b), Citibank may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Lead Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Lead Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Lead Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Lead Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Citibank as an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Citibank resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it which remain outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund L/C Participations). If Citibank resigns as the Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (ii) such successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by the retiring L/C Issuer and remaining outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Citibank to effectively assume the obligations of Citibank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) and not to disclose such information, except that Information may be disclosed: (i) to its Affiliates and to it and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (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); (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) in which case the Administrative Agent or such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, shall notify the Lead Borrower prior to such disclosure, in any case, to the extent legally permissible; (iii) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (iv) to any other party

-4-

hereto; (v) 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; (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(c) or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations; (vii) with the consent of the Lead Borrower; or (viii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Lead Borrower.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Holdings, the Lead Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Related Parties relating to Holdings or the Lead Borrower or any Subsidiary or Related Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or the Lead Borrower or any Subsidiary other than by breach of this Section 10.07; provided that, in the case of information received from Holdings or the Lead Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential or is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Agent and any Lender may place advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web as it may choose, and circulate similar promotional materials, after the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing the names of the Loan Parties, or any of them, and the amount, type and closing date of such transactions, all at their sole expense.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledge that (i) the Information may include material non-public information concerning Holdings, the Lead Borrower or one or more Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Laws, including Federal and state securities Laws.

Section 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or an L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuers

-1-

and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuers or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 10.09 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 the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Senior Credit Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.11 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 the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Senior Credit Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

Section 10.12 Severability.
