(iii) if since the beginning of such period the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have disposed of any company, any business or any group of assets constituting an operating unit of a business, or designated any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (any such disposition or designation, a “Sale”), the Consolidated EBITDA for such period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) attributable to the assets that are the subject of such Sale for such period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) attributable thereto for such period and Consolidated Interest Expense for such

-14-

period shall be reduced by an amount equal to (A) the Consolidated Interest Expense attributable to any Indebtedness of the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired or Discharged with respect to the Parent Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such Sale for such period (including but not limited to through the assumption of such Indebtedness by another Person) plus (B) if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary disposed of in such Sale or any Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Parent Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such Sale,

(v) if since the beginning of such period any Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged or consolidated with or into the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, and since the beginning of such period such Person shall have discharged any Indebtedness or made any Sale or Purchase that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above if made by the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense for such period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Discharge, Sale or Purchase occurred on the first day of such period, and

account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). If any Indebtedness bears, at the option of the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary, a rate of interest based on a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate or other fixed or floating rate, and such Indebtedness is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated by applying such optional rate as the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary may designate. If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect was Incurred under a revolving credit facility, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period.

-68-

include substitute, replacement or successor sections or rules adopted by the SEC from time to time.

(f) Any financial ratios required to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

(g) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than Article 6) which requires that no Default, Event of Default, Specified Default or other specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Borrower, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default, Specified Default or other specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (g), and any Default, Event of Default, Specified Default or other specified Event of Default, as applicable, occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default, Specified Default or other specified Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.

(h) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than the Payment Condition) which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio; or

(ii) testing baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated Tangible Assets but not any basket based on compliance with the Payment Condition);

in each case, at the option of the Parent Borrower (the Parent Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or

-69-

repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds of such Incurrence) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the Parent Borrower are available, the Parent Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, basket or amount, such ratio, basket or amount shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Parent Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Parent Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket or amount with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, asset dispositions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, basket or amount shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

(i) For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Capital Stock at such time.

SECTION 2 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS.

2.1 Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (i) each Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (together, the “Loans”) to each of the Borrowers from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which, when added to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the then outstanding L/C Obligations, then outstanding Agent Advances and the then outstanding Swing Line Loans, does not exceed the lesser of (x) the amount of such Lender’s Commitment then in effect and (y) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base as then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered, subject to recalculation at any time

-70-

based on the Administrative Agent’s determination of Availability Reserves in its Permitted Discretion as set forth in subsection 2.1(c)) and (ii) each Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to each of the Borrowers from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding does not exceed the lesser of (x) the amount of such Lender’s Commitment then in effect and (y) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base as then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered, subject to recalculation at any time based on the Administrative Agent’s determination of Availability Reserves in its Permitted Discretion as set forth in subsection 2.1(c)). During the Commitment Period, each of the Borrowers may use the Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

(b) The Revolving Loans shall be made in Dollars and may from time to time be (i) Eurocurrency Loans, (ii) ABR Loans or (iii) a combination thereof, as determined by the Borrowers and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with subsections 2.2 and 4.2; provided that no Revolving Loan shall be made as a Eurocurrency Loan after the day that is one month prior to the Maturity Date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsections 2.1(a) or (b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish Availability Reserves in such amounts, at any time, and with respect to such matters, as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, against the Borrowing Base including reserves with respect to (i) sums that the respective Borrowers are or will be required to pay (such as taxes (including payroll and sales taxes), assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and have not yet paid and (ii) amounts owing by the respective Borrowers or, without duplication, their respective Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any of the Collateral, which Lien or trust, in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent is capable of ranking senior in priority to or pari passu with one or more of the Liens granted in the Security Documents (such as Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, employees (including under Wisconsin wage lien law) or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the Collateral; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have provided the Borrower Representative at least ten Business Days’ prior written notice of any such establishment; and provided, further, that such Agent may only establish an Availability Reserve after the Closing Date based on an event, condition or other circumstance arising after the Closing Date or based on facts not known to the Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date (other than, in each case, Availability Reserves established in connection with (x) payables to vendors entitled to the benefits of Perishable Agriculture Commodities Act, 1930, as amended from time to time, the Packers and Xxxxxxxxx Xxx, 0000, as amended from time to time, or any similar statute or regulation. (y) any rental payments, service charges or other amounts due or to become due to lessors of real property to the extent Inventory or records are located in or on such property or such records are needed to monitor or otherwise deal with the Collateral or (z) Liens in favor of employees under Wisconsin wage lien law). The amount of any Availability Reserve established by the Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Availability Reserve. Upon delivery of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss the

-71-

proposed Availability Reserve, and the applicable Borrower may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Availability Reserve or increase no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion; provided that no Credit Extensions shall be made to any Borrower during such notice period if after giving effect to such Credit Extension the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit would exceed the Line Cap less such Availability Reserves. In no event shall such notice and opportunity limit the right of the Administrative Agent to establish such Availability Reserve, unless the Administrative Agent shall have determined in its Permitted Discretion that the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for such new Availability Reserve no longer exists or has otherwise been adequately addressed by the applicable Borrower. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Availability Reserves shall not duplicate eligibility criteria contained in the definition of “Eligible Accounts,” “Eligible Inventory” or “Eligible Transportation Equipment” and vice versa, or reserves or criteria deducted in computing the net book value of Eligible Inventory or Eligible Transportation Equipment or the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of Eligible Inventory or Eligible Transportation Equipment and vice versa. In addition to the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to subsection 7.6, to have the Loan Parties’ Inventory or Eligible Transportation Equipment reappraised by a qualified appraisal company selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time after the Closing Date for the purpose of re-determining the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of the Eligible Inventory, or Eligible Transportation Equipment and, as a result, re-determining the Borrowing Base.

(d) In the event the Borrowers are unable to comply with (i) the borrowing base limitations set forth in subsections 2.1(a)(i) or (ii), as the case may be, or (ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit set forth in Section 6, the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to make Loans to the Borrowers which may only be made as ABR Loans (each, an “Agent Advance”) for a period commencing on the date the Administrative Agent first receives a notice of Borrowing requesting an Agent Advance until the earliest of (i) the 30th Business Day after such date, (ii) the date the respective Borrowers or Borrower are again able to comply with the limitations in the Borrowing Base and the conditions precedent to the making of Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit, or obtains an amendment or waiver with respect thereto and (iii) the date the Required Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to cease making Agent Advances (in each case, the “Agent Advance Period”). The Administrative Agent shall not make any Agent Advance to the extent that at such time the amount of such Agent Advance, when added to the aggregate outstanding amount of all other Agent Advances made to the Borrowers at such time, (A) would exceed 5% of the Borrowing Base as then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or (B) when added to the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit as then in effect (immediately prior to the incurrence of such Agent Advance), would exceed the aggregate Commitment at such time. It is understood and agreed that, subject to the requirements set forth above, Agent Advances may be made by the Administrative Agent in its discretion to the extent the Administrative Agent deems such Agent Advances necessary or desirable (x) to preserve and protect the applicable Collateral, or any portion thereof, (y) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or (z) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses and other sums payable under the

-72-

Loan Documents, and that the Borrowers shall have no right to require that any Agent Advances be made. At any time that the conditions precedent set forth in subsection 6.2 have been satisfied or waived, the Administrative Agent may request the Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay an Agent Advance. At any other time, the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in subsection 2.1(e) below.

(e) Upon the making of an Agent Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Agent Advance in proportion to its Commitment Percentage. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Agent Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Agent Advance.

(f) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence such Lender’s Revolving Loans, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A‑1 with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount (each, as amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Revolving Note”), payable to such Lender and in a principal amount equal to the obligation of such Borrower to pay the amount of the Commitment of such Lender or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans made by such Lender to such Borrower. Each Revolving Note shall (i) be dated as of the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Maturity Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with subsection 4.1.

(g) Each Lender with an Additional Closing Date Commitment agrees that at any time prior to the Additional Closing Date Commitment Termination Date, the Parent Borrower may designate all or a portion of the Additional Closing Date Commitments as “Commitments” hereunder upon satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in subsection 6.3 and such Additional Closing Date Commitments shall thereafter constitute Commitments for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

2.2 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. Each of the Borrowers may borrow under the Commitments during the Commitment Period on any Business Day; provided that the Borrower Representative (on behalf of any Borrower) shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (a) 11:00 A.M., New York City time, at least three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, if all or any part of the requested Revolving Loans are to be initially Eurocurrency Loans (b) 1:00 P.M., New York City time on the requested Borrowing Date, for ABR Loans), by delivering a Borrowing Request specifying (i) the identity of the Borrower, (ii) the amount to be borrowed, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iv) whether the borrowing is to be of Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans or a combination thereof and (v) if the borrowing is to be entirely or partly of Eurocurrency Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan, the respective lengths of the initial Interest Periods therefor; provided that any such Borrowing

-73-

Request may be delivered through the Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal. All Borrowing Requests which are not made on-line via the Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal shall be subject to (and unless the Administrative Agent elects otherwise in the exercise of its sole discretion, such Borrowings shall not be made until the completion of) the Administrative Agent’s authentication process (with results satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) prior to the funding of any such requested Loan.

Each borrowing under the Commitments (other than the Agent Advances) shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of ABR Loans, except any ABR Loan to be used solely to pay a like amount of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or Swing Line Loans, $2.0 million or a whole multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof (or, if the then Available Commitments are (A) less than $2.0 million, $1.0 million or a whole multiple thereof or (B) less than $1.0 million, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans $5.0 million or a whole multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in subsection 6.2, each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing of Revolving Loans available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower identified in such notice at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in subsection 11.2 prior to 10:00 A.M. New York City time (in the case of any Eurocurrency Loan) or 3:00 P.M. New York City time (in the case of any ABR Loan), or at such other office of the Administrative Agent or at such other time as to which the Administrative Agent shall notify such Lender and the Borrower Representative reasonably in advance of the Borrowing Date with respect thereto, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Parent Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower identified in such notice by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.3 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of any Borrower) shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), to terminate the Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans made on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding, when added to the sum of the then outstanding L/C Obligations, would exceed the Commitments then in effect; provided, that any such notice of termination delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to at least $5.0 million or a whole multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof and shall reduce permanently the Commitments then in effect. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage. All outstanding Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

-74-

2.4 Swing Line Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make swing line loans (individually, a “Swing Line Loan”; collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) to any Borrower from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $170.0 million; provided that at no time may the sum of the then outstanding Swing Line Loans, Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations exceed the lesser of the Commitments then in effect and the Borrowing Base as then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered). Amounts borrowed by any Borrower under this subsection 2.4 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Maturity Date, reborrowed. All Swing Line Loans made to any Borrower shall be made in Dollars as ABR Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of any Borrower) shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date specifying (1) the identity of the Borrower and (2) the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or whole multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof. The proceeds of the Swing Line Loan will be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the Borrower identified in such notice at an office of the Swing Line Lender by crediting the account of such Borrower at such office with such proceeds in Dollars.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by the Swing Line Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence the Swing Line Loans such Borrower will execute and deliver to the Swing Line Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2, with appropriate insertions (as the same may be amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Swing Line Note”), payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender and representing the obligation of such Borrower to pay the amount of the Swing Line Commitment or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line Loans made to such Borrower, with interest thereon as prescribed in subsection 4.1. The Swing Line Note shall (i) be dated as of the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Maturity Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with subsection 4.1.

(c) The Swing Line Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may, and, at any time as there shall be a Swing Line Loan outstanding for more than seven Business Days, the Swing Line Lender shall, on behalf of the Borrower to which the Swing Line Loan has been made (which hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), request (provided that such request shall be deemed to have been automatically made upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(f)) each Lender, including the Swing Line Lender, to make a Revolving Loan as an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swing Line Loans ( a “Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing”) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all of the Swing Line Loans (collectively, the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given; provided that the provisions of this subsection shall not affect the obligations of any Borrower to prepay Swing Line Loans in accordance with the provisions of subsection 4.4(b). Unless the Commitments shall have expired or terminated (in which event the procedures of paragraph (d) of this subsection 2.4 shall

-75-

apply), each Lender hereby agrees to make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan (including, without limitation, any Eurocurrency Loan) available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 6 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing and (v) the amount of the Commitment of such, or any other, Lender at such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans (including, without limitation, any Eurocurrency Loan) shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans.

(d) If the Commitments shall expire or terminate at any time while Swing Line Loans are outstanding, each Lender shall, at the option of the Swing Line Lender, exercised reasonably, either (i) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Commitments, make a Revolving Loan as an ABR Loan (which Revolving Loan shall be deemed a “Revolving Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) or (ii) purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swing Line Loans, in either case in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage determined on the date of, and immediately prior to, expiration or termination of the Commitments of the aggregate principal amount of such Swing Line Loans; provided that, in the event that any Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, insolvency, receivership, administration or liquidation or similar law with respect to any Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from such Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swing Line Lender such participations in such outstanding Swing Line Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Lenders to share in such Swing Line Loans ratably based upon their respective Commitment Percentages; provided, further, that (x) all interest payable on the Swing Line Loans shall be for the account of the Swing Line Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay the Swing Line Lender interest on the principal amount of the participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans made as ABR Loans. Each Lender will make the proceeds of any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which the Commitments expire or terminate. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Line Loans outstanding on the date of termination or expiration of the Commitments. In the event that the Lenders purchase undivided participating interests pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (d), each Lender shall immediately transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt

-76-

thereof the Swing Line Lender will deliver to such Lender a Swing Line Loan Participation Certificate dated as of the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(e) Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from any Borrower in respect of such Swing Line Loan or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Swing Line Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will, if such payment is received prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such Lender its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise, the Swing Line Lender will distribute such payment on the next succeeding Business Day (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.

(f) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans and to purchase participating interests with respect to Swing Line Loans in accordance with subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any of the Borrowers may have against the Swing Line Lender, any of the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in condition (financial or otherwise) of any of the Borrowers; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Lender; (v) any inability of any of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Revolving Loan is to be made or participating interest is to be purchased or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.5 Record of Loans.

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of: (i) each Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender made to such Borrower, on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving Loans become due and payable pursuant to subsection 9.1); (ii) the Administrative Agent, the then unpaid and principal amount of each Agent Advance made to such Borrower on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Agent Advances become due and payable pursuant to subsection 9.1) and (iii) the Swing Line Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line Loans made to such Borrower, on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Swing Line Loans become due and payable pursuant to subsection 9.1). Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans made to such Borrower from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in subsection 4.1.

-77-

(b) Each Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of each of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to subsection 11.6(b), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from each Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to subsection 2.5(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of each Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Revolving Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.6 Additional Commitments.

(a) Requests for Additional Commitments. So long as no Specified Default exists or would arise therefrom, at any time and from time to time on or following the Additional Closing Date Commitment Termination Date and prior to the Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower Representative may (on behalf of the Borrowers), by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to add additional Commitments under the Facility or provide commitments under a new revolving credit facility to be included under the Facility (which may be in the form of a FILO Tranche) (the “Additional Commitments”). Any Additional Commitments shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25.0 million or any whole multiple of $5.0 million in excess thereof. It is understood and agreed that (i) any Additional Commitments (whether consisting of additional Commitments under the Facility or under a new revolving credit facility included under the Facility) shall constitute Commitments, (ii) the Commitment Percentage of any Lender providing an Additional Commitment shall be calculated to include such Additional Commitment to the extent then outstanding and (iii) any Additional Loans made by any Lender pursuant to any Additional Commitment (whether consisting of additional Commitments under the Facility or under a new revolving credit facility included under the Facility) shall be included for purposes of calculating Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit to the extent then outstanding.

(b) Ranking and Other Provisions. The additional Loans to any Borrower made pursuant to Additional Commitments (the “Additional Loans”) may be effected by an Additional Revolving Credit Amendment (as defined below) as may be necessary and appropriate in the opinion of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to effect the

provisions of this subsection 2.6; provided, however, that (i) the Additional Loans shall have the same guarantees as, and be secured on a pari passu basis in right of payment and security by the same Collateral securing, the Revolving Loans to such Borrower, (ii) no amendment effecting an Additional Commitment may provide for (I) any Additional Commitment to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that do not also secure the Revolving Loans and (II) so long as any Revolving Loans (other than Additional Loans) are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis while an Event of Default of the type described in subsection 9.1(a) or (f) (with respect to the Parent Borrower) or a Liquidity Event has occurred and is continuing or upon an acceleration of the Revolving Loan; provided that there shall be no mandatory or voluntary prepayments of Additional Loans under any FILO Tranche while any Revolving Loans are outstanding, (iii) the maturity date of such Additional Commitments shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date, (iv) immediately prior to giving effect to such Additional Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall be in compliance with subsection 8.1 as of the end of the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to subsection 7.1, whether or not such covenant is otherwise then applicable to the Parent Borrower under such section at such time, (v) the interest rate margins applicable to the Additional Loans shall be determined by the Parent Borrower and the Lenders extending Additional Commitments, (vi) such Additional Revolving Credit Amendment may provide for the inclusion, as appropriate, of Lenders extending Additional Commitments in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders, the Supermajority Lenders or of the Lenders of each Facility hereunder and may provide class protection for any additional credit facilities in a manner consistent with those provided the original Facilities pursuant to the provisions of subsection 11.1(a) as originally in effect, (vii) other than with respect to any FILO Tranche (which shall be subject to clause (viii)), the Borrowing Base (including advance rates) with respect to such Additional Commitments shall be the same as the Borrowing Base that is applicable to the Revolving Loans and any credit extension in respect of any other Tranche of Commitments (including Additional Commitments) shall be reserved against the applicable Borrowing Base, (viii) with respect to Additional Loans under any FILO Tranche, (A) such Additional Loans shall be secured by a pari passu lien on the Collateral with the Revolving Loans, but shall be junior in right of payment to all Revolving Loans, (2) such Additional Loans will be incurred on a “first in, last out” basis vis-à-vis the Revolving Loans, and the borrowing mechanics and voluntary and mandatory prepayment and commitment reduction provisions herein may be modified to reflect such “first in, last out” basis, and (3) the Borrowing Base with respect to such FILO Tranche shall be the same Borrowing Base that is applicable to the Revolving Loans, except such Borrowing Base with respect to such FILO Tranche may have a greater advance rate with respect to the Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory and Eligible Transportation Equipment than the advance rates applicable to the Revolving Loans; provided that in no case shall such advance rates be greater than 100%, (ix) other than with respect to any FILO Tranche, the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a required permanent repayment and termination of commitments on the Maturity Date of earlier maturing Commitments and Loans) of Loans with respect to any Commitments (including all Additional Commitments) shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other outstanding Commitments (including all Additional Commitments) and (x) the other terms and documentation in respect thereof, to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to the Additional Revolving Credit Amendment, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower.

-79-

(c) Additional Amendments. Each notice from the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Borrowers, pursuant to this subsection 2.6 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Additional Commitment. Additional Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank or investing entity other than an Ineligible Institution (any such bank or other financial institution, an “Additional Lender”), in each case on terms permitted in this subsection 2.6 or otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that if such Additional Lender is not already a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the consent of any Issuing Lender (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Additional Commitments unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Additional Loans shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Additional Revolving Credit Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, pursuant to subsection 2.6(b), executed by each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date (as defined below), each Lender agreeing to provide such Additional Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any (each such Lender or Additional Lender, an “Additional Committing Lender”), and the Administrative Agent. An Additional Revolving Credit Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this subsection 2.6.

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

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to the Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date each of the following, each dated as of the applicable Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date unless otherwise indicated or agreed to by the Administrative Agent and each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (A) the applicable Additional Revolving Credit Amendment executed by each Additional Committing Lender and each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date (and each other Borrower hereby consents to such Additional Revolving Credit Amendment); (B) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of each Borrower that is a borrower with respect to such Additional Commitments as of the Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date, approving the execution, delivery and performance of the Additional Revolving Credit Amendment; and (C) to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel for the Loan Parties dated as of the Additional Revolving Credit Closing Date, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(ii) the conditions precedent set forth in subsection 6.2 shall have been satisfied both before and after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Credit Amendment and the Additional Loan provided thereby; and

-80-

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

2.7 Extension Amendments.

(a) The Parent Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion, including one or more Tranches, of the Commitments (including any Extended Commitments), each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Commitment” and any related Revolving Loans thereunder, “Existing Loans”; each Existing Commitment and related Existing Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Tranche”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) (each, an “Extended Maturity Date”) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Loans related to such Existing Commitments (any such Existing Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Commitments” and any related Existing Loans, “Extended Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this subsection 2.7. In order to establish any Extended Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Commitments to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Commitment”) except (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Commitments, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Commitments may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Commitments and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (z) the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage with respect to the Extended Commitments may be higher or lower than the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage for the Specified Existing Commitment, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 2.7 or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to any Commitments (including all Extended Commitments) shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other outstanding Commitments (including all Extended Commitments but other than any FILO Tranche), (2) assignments and participations of Extended Commitments and Extended Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Commitments and the Revolving Loans related to such Commitments set forth in subsection 11.6, and (3) no termination of Extended Commitments and no repayment of Extended Loans accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by an at least pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding permanent reduction), as applicable, of all earlier maturing Commitments (including Extended Commitments) and Revolving Loans (including Extended Loans) related to such earlier maturing Commitments (including Extended Commitments) (or all earlier maturing Commitments (including Extended Commitments) and Revolving Loans

-81-

(including Extended Loans) related to such Commitments (including Extended Commitments) shall otherwise be or have been terminated and repaid in full). No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans or Existing Commitments of any Existing Tranche converted into Extended Loans or Extended Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Commitments shall constitute a separate Tranche of Commitments from the Specified Existing Commitments and from any other Existing Commitments (together with any other Extended Commitments so established on such date).

(b) The Parent Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least 10 Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche or Existing Tranches are requested to respond. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Specified Existing Commitments converted into Extended Commitments shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Specified Existing Commitments that it has elected to convert into Extended Commitments. Any Lender not responding to an Extension Request shall be deemed to have elected to decline to have any of its Specified Existing Commitments converted into Extended Commitments. In the event that the aggregate amount of Specified Existing Commitments subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Specified Existing Commitments subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Commitments on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Specified Existing Commitments included in each such Extension Election. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Commitment into an Extended Commitment, such Extended Commitment shall be treated identically to all Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Lender in respect of Letters of Credit under Section 3 and Swing Line Loans under subsection 2.4, except that the applicable Extension Amendment may provide that the maturity date for Swing Line Loans and/or Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to make Swing Line Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued so long as the Swing Line Lender and/or the applicable Issuing Lender, as applicable, have consented to such extensions in their sole discretion (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

(c) Extended Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to provisions related to maturity, interest margins or fees referenced in subsection 2.7(a) clauses (x) to (z) and which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this subsection 2.7(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in subsection 11.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Commitments established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Extending Lenders; provided that no such Extension Amendment shall amend the rights of any Lender not participating in the Extension Amendment other than to the extent amendments are permitted by the Required Lenders or such other percentage of Lenders as required by subsection 11.1(a). No Extension Amendment shall provide for any tranche of Extended Commitments in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $250.0 million. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without limiting the generality or applicability of subsection 11.1 to any Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendments, any Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional

-82-

amendment, a “Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that such Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendments have been consented to (including, without limitation, pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Commitments provided for in any Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance with subsection 11.1; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for (a) any Extended Commitment or Extended Loans to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Tranches and (b) so long as any Existing Tranches are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Existing Tranches on a pro rata basis while a Liquidity Event has occurred and is continuing or upon an acceleration of the Loans. It is understood and agreed that each Lender has consented for all purposes requiring its consent, and shall at the effective time thereof be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents authorized by this subsection 2.7 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith except that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Subsection 2.7 Additional Amendment. In connection with any Extension Amendment, the Parent Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified Existing Commitments of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Commitments shall be established as a separate Tranche of Commitments from the Specified Existing Commitments and from any other Existing Commitments (together with any other Extended Commitments so established on such date) and (B) if, on any Extension Date, any Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the applicable Specified Existing Commitments, such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Extended Loans (and related participations) and Existing Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Commitments to Extended Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date.

(e) If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines (or is deemed to have declined) to consent to the extension of its Commitment on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Request (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the Parent Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative and the Non-Extending Lender, (A) replace such Non-Extending Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to subsection 11.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Parent Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Parent Borrower to

-83-

find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide a Commitment on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance or (B) upon notice to the Administrative Agent to prepay the Loans and, at the Parent Borrower’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Extending Lender, in whole or in part, subject to subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this subsection 2.7, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the applicable Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender.

SECTION 3 LETTERS OF CREDIT.

3.1 Letter of Credit Commitment; Procedures with Respect to Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of any Borrower made in accordance herewith, and prior to the Maturity Date, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 3, agrees to issue letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 3, the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of such Borrower. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and shall be either (A) a standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, which finance the working capital and business needs of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries incurred in the ordinary course of business (a “Standby Letter of Credit”) or (B) a commercial letter of credit in respect of the purchase of goods or services by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (a “Commercial Letter of Credit”); provided that in no event shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue a Commercial Letter of Credit. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Request”), or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be (i) irrevocable and made in writing by a Responsible Officer, (ii) delivered to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender via telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender and reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension, and (iii) subject to the applicable Issuing Lender’s authentication procedures with results reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender. Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (B) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (C) the proposed expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) the name and address of

-84-

the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (E) such other information (including, the conditions to drawing, and, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender may request or require, to the extent that such requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that such Issuing Lender generally requests for Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. The applicable Issuing Lender’s records of the content of any such request will be conclusive.

(b) No Issuing Lender shall issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit would exceed $800.0 million, (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit of all the Lenders would exceed the lesser of the Commitments of all the Lenders then in effect and the Borrowing Base as then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or (iii) the L/C Obligations in respect of the Letters of Credit with respect to any Issuing Lender would exceed the applicable Specified L/C Sublimit of such Issuing Lender then in effect.

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

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

-85-

Administrative Agent an amount equal to the applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement on the Business Day such Letter of Credit Disbursement is made and, in the absence of such payment, the amount of the Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in subsection 6.2) and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans. If a Letter of Credit Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder, the applicable Borrower’s obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement to the applicable Issuing Lender shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Revolving Loan. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments to reimburse such Issuing Lenders, then to such Lenders and Issuing Lenders as their interests may appear.

(e) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to subsection 3.1(d), each Lender agrees to fund its Commitment Percentage of any Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to subsection 3.1(d) on the same terms and conditions as if the applicable Borrower had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal, or extension of a Letter of Credit) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender under the applicable Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by such Issuing Lenders and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in subsection 3.1(d), or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Commitment Percentage of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this subsection 3.1(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in subsection 6.2. If any such Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this subsection, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent (for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the rate of interest applicable to Defaulting Lenders until paid in full.

(f) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Issuing Lender and its respective branches, Affiliates, and correspondents and each such

-86-

Person’s respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, including Issuing Lender, a “Letter of Credit Related Person”) (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and related reasonable and documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees of a single firm of counsel to the applicable Issuing Lender in each reasonably necessary jurisdiction, one specialty counsel in each reasonably necessary specialty area for all such Letter of Credit Related Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Letter of Credit Related Person retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for each such affected Letter of Credit Related Person)), that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any such Letter of Credit Related Person (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), which may be incurred by or awarded against any Letter of Credit Related Person (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by subsection 4.11) (the “Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs”), and which arise out of or in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Issuer Document, or any Drawing Document referred to in or related to any Letter of Credit, or any action or proceeding arising out of any of the foregoing (whether administrative, judicial or in connection with arbitration); in each case, including that resulting from the Letter of Credit Related Person’s own negligence; provided, that such indemnity shall not be available to any Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnification to the extent that such Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity. This indemnification provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and all Letters of Credit.

(g) The liability of any Issuing Lender (or any other Letter of Credit Related Person) under, in connection with or arising out of any Letter of Credit (or pre-advice), regardless of the form or legal grounds of the action or proceeding, shall be limited to direct damages suffered by the Borrowers that are caused directly by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in (i) honoring a presentation under a Letter of Credit that on its face does not at least substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, (ii) failing to honor a presentation under a Letter of Credit that strictly complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, or (iii) retaining Drawing Documents presented under a Letter of Credit.

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

-87-

promptly notify such Issuing Lender (not later than three Business Days following Borrowers’ receipt of documents from Issuing Lender) of any non-compliance with Borrowers’ instructions and of any discrepancy in any document under any presentment or other irregularity. Borrowers understand and agree that no Issuing Lender is required to extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit for any reason. With respect to any Letter of Credit containing an “automatic amendment” to extend the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may give notice of nonrenewal of such Letter of Credit and, if Borrowers do not at any time want the then current expiration date of such Letter of Credit to be extended, Borrowers will so notify Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender at least 30 calendar days (or such shorter period agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender) before such Issuing Lender is required to notify the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any advising bank of such non-extension pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(i) Borrowers’ reimbursement and payment obligations under this Section 3 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever; provided, that subject to subsection 3.1(g) above, the foregoing shall not release any Issuing Lender from such liability to Borrowers as may be determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction against such Issuing Lender following reimbursement or payment of the obligations and liabilities, including reimbursement and other payment obligations, of Borrowers to such Issuing Lender arising under, or in connection with, this Section 3 or any Letter of Credit.

(j) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, no Issuing Lender or other Letter of Credit Related Person (if applicable) shall be responsible to Borrowers for, and the Issuing Lender’s rights and remedies against Borrowers and the obligation of Borrowers to reimburse the Issuing Lenders for each drawing under each Letter of Credit shall not be impaired by:

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

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

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

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

-88-

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(k) Each Standby Letter of Credit shall expire not later than the date that is 12 months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided, that any Standby Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic extension thereof for any number of additional periods each of up to one year in duration; provided further, that with respect to any Letter of Credit which extends beyond the Maturity Date, such Letter of Credit shall be cash collateralized on terms acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender on or before the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Each Commercial Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (i) 120 days after the date of the issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit and (ii) five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

-89-

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

(n) In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Section 3 and any provision contained in any Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 3 shall control and govern.

(o) The provisions of this Section 3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit that remain outstanding.

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

3.2 Fees, Commissions and Other Charges.

(a) The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, computed for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit through to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurocurrency Loans calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit minus the L/C Facing Fee, payable with respect to each quarter in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein. Such commission shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders to be shared ratably among them in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. The applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender a fee equal to 0.125% per annum (the “L/C Facing

-90-

Fee”), payable with respect to each quarter in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Maturity Date or such other date as the Commitments shall terminate. Such commissions and fees shall be nonrefundable. Such fees and commissions shall be payable in Dollars.

(b) In addition to the foregoing commissions and fees, each Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants all commissions and fees received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this subsection 3.2.

3.3 Additional Issuing Lenders. The Borrower Representative may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing lender pursuant to this subsection 3.3 shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Lender” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Lender or Issuing Lenders and such Lender. Any such additional Issuing Lender may resign as Issuing Lender (with respect to any future issuances, including renewals) upon 10 Business Days’ notice to the Lenders.

3.4 Replacement of Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time (x) by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender or (y) by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers), for any reason, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the applicable Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of such replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 3.2. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (1) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of such replaced Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (2) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of any Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to amend or extend any previously issued Letters of Credit.

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this subsection 4.1 shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(e) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply strictly with applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is stipulated and agreed that the aggregate of all amounts which constitute interest under applicable usury laws, whether contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received, in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement or any Notes, or any other document relating or referring hereto or thereto, now or hereafter existing, shall never exceed under any circumstance whatsoever the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable usury laws.

(f) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, if applicable.

(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all fees and payments to be paid to the Administrative Agent shall be made to the Agent’s Account.

-92-

4.2 Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrower) may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Revolving Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurocurrency Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrower) may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Revolving Loans from ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election. Any such notice of conversion to Eurocurrency Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurocurrency Loans and ABR Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) no Revolving Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have given notice to the Borrower Representative that no such conversions may be made, and (ii) no Revolving Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan after the date that is one month prior to the Maturity Date.

(b) Any Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the applicable Borrower) giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Revolving Loan, determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in subsection 1.1, provided that no Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have given notice to the Borrower Representative that no such continuations may be made or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the Maturity Date, and provided, further, that if the Borrower Representative shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this subsection 4.2(b) or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Eurocurrency Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice of continuation pursuant to this subsection 4.2(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof.

4.3 Minimum Amounts of Sets. All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Revolving Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising each Set shall be equal to $5.0 million or a whole multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof, and so that there shall not be more than 15 Sets at any one time outstanding.

4.4 Prepayments.

(a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Revolving Loans made to it and the Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account, in whole or in part, subject to subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty, upon at least three Business Days’ notice by the Borrower Representative to the

-93-

Administrative Agent (in the case of Eurocurrency Loans) or same day notice by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent (in the case of ABR Loans and Reimbursement Obligations). Such notice shall specify the identity of the prepaying Borrower, the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is (i) of Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans, or a combination thereof, and (ii) of Eurocurrency Loans, ABR Loans or a combination thereof and, if a combination thereof, in each case, the principal amount allocable to each and, in the case of any prepayment of Reimbursement Obligations, the date and amount of prepayment, the identity of the applicable Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit and the amount allocable to each of such Reimbursement Obligations. Any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. If any such notice is given and is not revoked, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid other than at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto) any amounts payable pursuant to subsection 4.12 and accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of the Revolving Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to this subsection shall (unless the Borrower Representative otherwise directs) be applied, first, to payment of any Agent Advances then outstanding, second, to the payment of the Swing Line Loans then outstanding, third, at the Borrower Representative’s option, to the payment of the Revolving Loans then outstanding, fourth, to the payment of any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding and, last, to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligation on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Partial prepayments pursuant to this subsection 4.4(a) shall be in multiples of $1.0 million; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan may be prepaid in its entirety.

(b) The Borrowers shall prepay all Swing Line Loans then outstanding simultaneously with each borrowing of Revolving Loans.

(c) (i) On any day (other than during an Agent Advance Period) on which the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit exceeds the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered), the Borrowers shall prepay on such day the principal of outstanding Loans in an amount equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Loans made to the Borrowers, the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to such L/C Obligations at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrowers to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent.

(ii) [reserved].

-94-

(iii) On any day on which the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit exceeds the aggregate Commitment at such time, the Borrowers shall prepay on such day first the Agent Advances then outstanding and thereafter the principal of Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds the aggregate Commitment at such time, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to the L/C Obligations at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrowers to the applicable Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 4.4, if at any time any prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 4.4(a) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in the relevant Borrower incurring breakage costs under subsection 4.12 as a result of Eurocurrency Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, the relevant Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially (i) deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans not immediately prepaid), to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrowers to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the Borrower Representative) or (ii) make a prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with subsection 4.4(a) with an amount equal to a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans (which prepayment, together with any deposits pursuant to clause (i) above, must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans not immediately prepaid); provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the Borrowers may request any Extension of Credit under the Commitments that would reduce the aggregate amount of the Available Commitments to an amount that is less than the amount of such prepayment until the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans have been prepaid upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans; provided that, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with subsection 4.1 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans or the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans have or has been prepaid.

4.5 Administrative Agent’s Fees; Other Fees.

(a) Each Borrower agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Commitment Period to the Maturity Date, computed based on the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable with respect to each quarter in

-95-

arrears on the first calendar day of each January, April, July and October and on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives any fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Parent Borrower, the Other Representatives and the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of the Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which the Borrowers will be charged with all Loans (including Agent Advances and Swing Line Loans) made by the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, or the Lenders to the Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account, the Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Lenders for Borrowers’ account, and with all other payment obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses. The Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, from time to time without prior notice to the Borrowers, to charge to the Loan Account, as and when due and payable, all interest and fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. All amounts (including interest, fees, costs, expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document) charged to the Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Revolving Loans hereunder, shall constitute obligations hereunder, and shall initially accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (unless and until converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

4.6 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest (other than interest based on the Prime Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed; and commitment fees and any other fees and interest based on the Prime Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day (or 366-day, as the case may be) year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Representative and the affected Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Representative and the affected Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower Representative or such Lender a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 4.1, excluding any calculation of the Eurocurrency Rate which is based upon LIBOR and any ABR Loan which is based upon the Administrative Agent’s “prime rate”.

-96-

4.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon each Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan (the “Affected Rate”) for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) any Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (b) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans, (c) as to the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s cost of funding such Eurocurrency Loans or as reasonably determined by such Lender, plus the Applicable Margin hereunder and (d) any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans that are Revolving Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate and that are not otherwise permitted to be converted to or continued as ABR Loans by subsection 4.2 shall, upon demand by the Lenders the Commitment Percentage of which aggregate greater than 50%, be immediately repaid by the applicable Borrower on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto together with accrued interest thereon or otherwise, at the option of the Borrower Representative, shall remain outstanding and bear interest at a rate which reflects, as to each of the Lenders, such Lender’s cost of funding such Eurocurrency Loans, as reasonably determined by such Lender, plus the Applicable Margin hereunder. If any such repayment occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect to such affected Eurocurrency Loan, the applicable Borrower shall pay to each of the Lenders such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.12. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate shall be made or continued as such, nor shall any of the Borrowers have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate.

(b) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 P.M. New York City time on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Parent Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR

-97-

with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this subsection 4.7(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

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

(iii) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this subsection 4.7(b), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this subsection 4.7(b).

(iv) Upon the Parent Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, any Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, such applicable Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of ABR based upon LIBOR will not be used in any determination of ABR.

4.8 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing of Revolving Loans, or pursuant to any Additional Commitments constituting a separate facility, as applicable (other than Swing Line Loans) by any of the Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder shall be made, each payment by any of the Borrowers on account of any commitment fee in respect of the Commitments hereunder shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent, and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent, pro rata according to the relevant Commitment Percentages of the Lenders, or in the case of any Additional Commitments constituting a separate facility or any other Tranche established after the date of this Agreement, pro rata according to the amount of such Additional Commitments or Commitments of such Tranche held by the relevant Lenders (or as otherwise may be provided in an Additional Revolving Credit Amendment). Each payment (including each prepayment (but excluding payments made pursuant to subsection 2.7, 4.8(c), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11 or 11.1(f))) by any of the Borrowers on account

-98-

of principal of and interest on any Tranche of Revolving Loans shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Revolving Loans then held by respective Lenders (or as otherwise provided in the applicable Additional Revolving Credit Amendment or Extension Amendment, as applicable). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by any Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Reimbursement Obligations or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders holding the relevant Loans or the L/C Participants, as the case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in subsection 11.2, and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to such Lenders, if any such payment is received prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day, and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Lenders on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due from such Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, 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 Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender 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, the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its Commitment Percentage of such borrowing available to such Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to any Borrower in respect of such borrowing a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Administrative Agent, or another bank of recognized standing reasonably selected by the Administrative Agent,

-99-

for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection 4.8(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, (x) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative of the failure of such Lender to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans hereunder, on demand, from such Borrower and (y) then such Borrower may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies it may have against such Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available.

(i) If at any time a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower Representative shall have the right to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative to each become a substitute Lender and assume all or part of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender. In such event, the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Defaulting Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance to effect such substitution.

(ii) In determining the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, any Lender that at the time is a Defaulting Lender (and the Revolving Loans and/or Commitment of such Defaulting Lender) shall be excluded and disregarded. No commitment fee shall accrue for the account of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

(iii) If at any time any Borrower shall be required to make any payment under any Loan Document to or for the account of a Defaulting Lender, then such Borrower, so long as it is then permitted to borrow Revolving Loans hereunder, may set off and otherwise apply its obligation to make such payment against the obligation of such Defaulting Lender to make such Loan. In such event, the amount so set off and otherwise applied shall be deemed to constitute a Revolving Loan by such Defaulting Lender made on the date of such set-off and included within any borrowing of Revolving Loans as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine.

(iv) If, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, any Borrower shall be required to pay any amount under any Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Lender, then any Borrower, so long as it is then permitted to borrow Revolving Loans hereunder, may satisfy such payment obligation by paying such amount to the Administrative Agent, to be (to the extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent not utilized by the Administrative Agent to satisfy obligations of the Defaulting Lender owing to it) held by the Administrative Agent in escrow pursuant to its standard terms

-100-

(including as to the earning of interest), and applied (together with any accrued interest) by it from time to time to make any Revolving Loans or other payments as and when required to be made by such Defaulting Lender hereunder.

(d) if any L/C Obligations exist at the time an L/C Participant becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such L/C Obligations shall be re-allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent (A) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ outstanding Revolving Loans does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (B) no such reallocation shall cause the aggregate amount of any Non-Defaulting Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in L/C Obligations to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding;

(iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay the fees and commissions specified in Section 3 for participation with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations so long as it is cash collateralized;

(iv) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the letter of credit commission with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; or

(v) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this subsection 4.8(d), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any Non-Defaulting Lender hereunder, the commitment fee that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such portion of the L/C Obligations) and the interests in the letter of credit commission payable with respect to such portion of the Defaulting Lender’s interests in the L/C Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until such portion of such interests in the L/C Obligations are cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

-101-

4.9 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Affected Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan (or a Swing Line Loan) when an Affected Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Revolving Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of an Affected Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.12.

4.10 Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):

(i) shall subject such Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to its loans, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, in each case except for Excluded Taxes or Indemnified Taxes;

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition (excluding any tax of any kind whatsoever);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower Representative from such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance herewith, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with

-102-

respect to such Eurocurrency Loans, or Letters of Credit, provided that, in any such case, such Borrower may elect to convert the Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s notice of such election, in which case the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.12. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this paragraph (a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 4.10(a), the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation thereof or (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrowers in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This subsection 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Revolving Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within ten Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this paragraph (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or corporation and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 4.10(b), the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(b) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the

-103-

Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation thereof or (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrowers in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This subsection 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Revolving Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Xxxx Xxxxx Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith, and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case shall be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued, as applicable, subsequent to the Closing Date for all purposes herein.

4.11 Taxes.

(a) All payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by any applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent, a Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such deductions or withholdings have been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this subsection 4.11) the applicable Lender (or, in the case of payments made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of subsection 4.11(a), the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this subsection 4.11, the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of a Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt (or other documentary evidence of such payment reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) received by such Loan Party showing payment thereof.

-104-

(d) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this subsection 4.11) payable or paid by such Lender or Administrative Agent or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender or Administrative Agent and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably required by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) each Lender that is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form), certifying that such Agent or Lender is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal backup withholding Tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note;

(B) each Lender that is not a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent) duly executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

-105-

I. in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E;

II. two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8ECI

III. in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no interest payments under any Loan Documents are effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

IV. to the extent the Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two duly executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of such direct and indirect partner(s);

(C) any Lender that is not a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

-106-

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(ii) Each Lender agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered pursuant to this subsection 4.11(e) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such documentation or promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 4.11(e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this subsection 4.11(e) that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.11(e).

(f) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any 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 subsection 4.11, it shall pay to the applicable Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this subsection 4.11 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection 4.11(f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable indemnified party be required to pay any amount to the applicable Loan Party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such

-107-

Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Lender of the Administrative Agent 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.

(g) For purposes of this subsection 4.11, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and any Swing Line Lender.

(h) The agreements in this subsection 4.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations.

4.12 Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each such Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (other than through such Lender’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct) as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment, whether voluntary or mandatory, of Eurocurrency Loans or the conversion of Eurocurrency Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (including, without limitation, as a result of acceleration of the Loans). Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or converted, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or conversion or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurocurrency Loans, as applicable, provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in this subsection 4.12, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in clause (a), (b) or (c) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any indemnification pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This subsection 4.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Revolving Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

-108-

4.13 Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a) Upon the request, and at the expense, of the applicable Borrower, each Agent, and Lender to which any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall cooperate with such Borrower in pursuing a refund of any Tax giving rise to such additional amounts; provided that such Borrower shall reimburse such Agent or Lender for its reasonable out of pocket expenses, including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with such Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Agent or Lender shall be required to cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Taxes pursuant to this subsection 4.13(a), if such Agent or Lender in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under subsection 4.10, or requires any Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to subsection 4.11, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Parent Borrower) 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 judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to subsection 4.10 or 4.11, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

-109-

(c) If any Lender requests compensation under subsection 4.10, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to subsection 4.11 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with paragraph (b) of this subsection 4.13, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, subsection 11.6), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to subsection 4.10 or subsection 4.11) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an eligible assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) the Parent Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in subsection 11.6;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under subsection 4.10 or 4.11) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Parent Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under subsection 4.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to subsection 4.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

(v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Parent Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Notwithstanding anything in this subsection 4.13 to the contrary, (i) any Lender that acts as an Issuing Bank may not be replaced hereunder at any time it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements satisfactory to such Lender (including the furnishing of a backstop standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender or the depositing of cash collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit and (ii) the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder, except in accordance with the terms of subsection 10.10.

-110-

4.14 Controls on Prepayment if Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exceeds Aggregate Commitments.

(a) The Borrower Representative will implement and maintain internal controls to monitor the borrowings and repayments of Loans by the Borrowers and the issuance of and drawings under Letters of Credit, with the object of preventing any request for an Extension of Credit that would result in the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) being in excess of the aggregate Commitments then in effect and of promptly identifying any circumstance where, by reason of changes in exchange rates, the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) exceeds the aggregate Commitments then in effect.

(b) The Administrative Agent will calculate the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) from time to time, and in any event not less frequently than once during each calendar month. In making such calculations, the Administrative Agent will rely on the information most recently received by it from the Swing Line Lender in respect of outstanding Swing Line Loans and from the Issuing Lenders in respect of outstanding L/C Obligations.

4.15 Cash Receipts.

(a) Schedule 4.15 lists with respect to each depository where a DDA is located (i) the name of such depository and (ii) the account number(s) maintained with such depository.

(b) Each Loan Party shall (i) enter into a concentration account control agreement (a “Concentration Account Agreement”), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, covering an account maintained by the Parent Borrower (the “Concentration Account”), with Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association (or such other bank that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), and (ii) either (A) instruct all Account Debtors of such Loan Party that remit payments of Division Accounts of such Account Debtors regularly by check pursuant to arrangements with such Loan Party to remit all such payments to the applicable “P.O. Boxes” or “Lockbox Addresses” with respect to the applicable DDA or Concentration Account, which remittances shall be collected by the applicable bank and deposited in the applicable DDA or Concentration Account, (B) cause the checks of any such Account Debtor in payment of any Division Account to be deposited in the applicable DDA or Concentration Account within two Business Days after such check is received by such Loan Party or (C) cause amounts constituting payments on Division Accounts that are deposited in other accounts (including any accounts where they are commingled with other funds) to be swept within 1 Business Day of becoming available to a DDA or the Concentration Account in accordance with the terms of the ABS Intercreditor Agreement. All amounts received by a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any Division Account, in addition to all other cash received from any other source, shall upon receipt of such amount or cash (other than any such amount or cash excluded from the Collateral pursuant to any Security Document) be deposited into a DDA or Concentration Account. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not cause proceeds of such DDAs to be otherwise redirected.

-111-

(c) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default of the type described in subsection 9.1(a) or (f) (with respect to the Parent Borrower) or a Liquidity Event as to which the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrower Representative, each Loan Party shall instruct each depository institution where a DDA is maintained to cause all amounts constituting cash proceeds of Division Accounts, Inventory and Transportation Equipment constituting Collateral (which proceeds constitute Collateral) on deposit in such DDA in excess of $10,000 and available at the close of each Business Day in such DDA to be swept either to the Concentration Account or, to the extent such proceeds constituting Collateral are deposited into another account that is linked to the ABS Facility, swept to the Concentration Account pursuant to the terms of the ABS Intercreditor Agreement, no less frequently than on a daily basis, such instructions to be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent.

With respect to any Letter of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the applicable Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired

-141-

amount of such Letter of Credit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender in its capacity as a Secured Party or as beneficiary of any security granted pursuant to the Security Documents shall have any right to exercise remedies in respect of such security without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

Except as expressly provided above in this subsection 9.1, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived.

9.2 Borrower’s Right to Cure

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary otherwise contained in this Section 9, in the event of any default in the observance or performance of the covenant set forth in subsection 8.1, upon the receipt of a Specified Equity Contribution on or prior to (i) the date that is 10 Business Days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to subsection 7.1(a) or 7.1(b) for the fiscal quarter (or fiscal year that ends with such fiscal quarter) in respect of which such Specified Equity Contribution is made or (ii) the date on which a Borrowing Base Certificate is delivered in accordance with subsection 7.2(f), and subject to the satisfaction of the other conditions with respect to Specified Equity Contribution set forth in the definition thereof, Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter and any four fiscal quarter period that contains such fiscal quarter by the amount of such Specified Equity Contribution (the “Cure Amount”), solely for the purpose of measuring compliance with subsection 8.1; provided that in each four fiscal quarter period, there shall be at least one fiscal quarter in respect of which no Specified Equity Contribution is made. If, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment (without giving effect to any repayment of any Indebtedness with any portion of the Cure Amount or any portion of the Cure Amount on the balance sheet of the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, with respect to such fiscal quarter only), the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall then be in compliance with the requirements of subsection 8.1, they shall be deemed to have been in compliance therewith as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no default in the observance or performance thereof at such date, and such default (and any Event of Default resulting from such default) shall be deemed not to have occurred and shall be deemed cured for all purposes of this Agreement.

-142-

(b) The parties hereby acknowledge that, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Cure Amount received pursuant to the occurrence of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA in any determination of any financial ratio-based conditions (other than as applicable to subsection 8.1), pricing or basket under Section 8 and (ii) no Lender or Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Extension of Credit hereunder if a default in the observance or performance of the covenant set forth in subsection 8.1 has occurred and is continuing during the period in which a Specified Equity Contribution may be made unless and until the Specified Equity Contribution is actually received.

The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with subsection 11.6 and all actions required by such subsection in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

The Administrative Agent shall take such action reasonably promptly with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders and/or such other requisite percentage of the Lenders as is required pursuant to subsection 11.1(a); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

10.7 Indemnification.

(a) The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) and the Other Representatives (or any Affiliate thereof) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Total Credit Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this subsection 10.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Total Credit Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Revolving Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent arising from (a) such Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (b) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against such Agent by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. The obligations to indemnify the Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender shall be ratable among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, the outstanding principal amount of their respective Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations and their respective participating interests in the outstanding Letters of Credit) and shall be payable only by the Lenders. The agreements in this subsection 10.7 shall survive the payment of the Revolving Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by it hereunder or under the Loan Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

(c) The provisions of this subsection 10.7 shall apply to the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such to the same extent that such provisions apply to the Administrative Agent.

10.8 The Agents and Other Representatives in Their Individual Capacity. The Agents, the Other Representatives and their Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any other Loan Party as though the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives were not the Administrative Agent or the Other Representatives hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to Revolving Loans made or renewed by them and any Note issued to them and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by them, the Agents and the Other Representatives shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though they were not an Agent or an

Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note or participant in Letters of Credit by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Administrative Agent, the ABL Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Security Documents, each Intercreditor Agreement or any Replacement Intercreditor Agreement, and the exercise by the Agents or the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent are hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the ABL Collateral Agent, at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this subsection 10.9; or (C) to subordinate any Lien on any Excluded Assets (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) or any other property granted to or held by such Agent, as the case may be under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Prior Lien.

(c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to enter into any amendment, amendment and restatement, restatement, waiver, supplement or modification, and to make or consent to any filings or to take any other actions, in each case as contemplated by subsection 11.17. Upon request by any Agent, at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s and the ABL Collateral Agent’s authority under this subsection 10.9(c).

(d) No Agent or the Issuing Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agents in this subsection 10.9 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given such Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as Lender and that no Agent shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(e) The ABL Collateral Agent may, and hereby does, appoint the Administrative Agent as its agent for the purposes of holding any Collateral and/or perfecting the ABL Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and for the purpose of taking such other action with respect to the Collateral as such Agents may from time to time agree.

(f) In connection with the sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of any Borrower other than the Parent Borrower (other than to the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction permitted by this Agreement) or any other transaction permitted by this Agreement pursuant to which such Borrower shall no longer be a Restricted Subsidiary, upon written notice by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent, identifying such Borrower, describing such sale, disposition or other transaction and certifying that such transaction complies with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to such Borrower (at its expense) all releases or other documents necessary or reasonably desirable for the release of such Borrower from its obligations as a Borrower hereunder, and the ABL Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to such Borrower (at its expense) all releases or other documents (including without limitation UCC termination statements) necessary or reasonably desirable for the release of the Liens created under the Security Documents in any property or assets of such Borrower, as such Borrower may reasonably request.

-148-

10.10 Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or ABL Collateral Agent, respectively, upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative. If the Administrative Agent or ABL Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent or ABL Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Borrower Representative (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent or the ABL Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term “Administrative Agent” or “ABL Collateral Agent,” as applicable, shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or ABL Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Revolving Loans. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Additionally, after any retiring Agent’s resignation as such Agent, the provisions of this subsection 10.10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was such Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After the resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding provisions of this subsection 10.10, the resigning Administrative Agent shall not be required to act as Issuing Lender for any Letters of Credit to be issued after the date of such resignation and (y) shall not be required to act as Swing Line Lender with respect to Swing Line Loans to be made after the date of such resignation (and all outstanding Swing Line Loans of such resigning Administrative Agent shall be required to be repaid in full upon its resignation), although the resigning Administrative Agent shall retain all rights hereunder as Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it, and all Swing Line Loans made by it, prior to the effectiveness of its resignation as Administrative Agent hereunder. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent and/or ABL Collateral Agent, as applicable, by the date which is 10 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of such Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

10.11 Other Representatives. None of the entities identified as joint bookrunners, joint lead arrangers, syndication agents or documentation agents pursuant to the definition of Other Representative contained herein, shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as such.

10.12 Swing Line Lender. The provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such to the same extent that such provisions apply to the Administrative Agent.

10.13 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly

-149-

withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Parent Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Parent Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent, as Tax or otherwise, together with all expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this subsection 10.13. The agreements in this subsection 10.13 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations.

10.14 Approved Electronic Communications. Each of the Lenders and the Loan Parties agree, that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on IntraLinks^™, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). The Approved Electronic Communications and the Approved Electronic Platform are provided (subject to subsection 11.16) “as is” and “as available.”

Each of the Lenders and (subject to subsection 11.16) each of the Loan Parties agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

10.15 Appointment of Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby designates the Parent Borrower as its representative. The Parent Borrower will be acting as agent on each of the Borrowers behalf for the purposes of issuing notices of Borrowing and notices of conversion/continuation of any Loans pursuant to subsection 4.2 or similar notices, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The Parent Borrower hereby accepts such appointment. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Parent Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower.

-150-

10.16 Reports. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after they become available, copies of all financial statements required to be delivered by the Parent Borrower hereunder and all field examinations, audits and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Agents (collectively, the “Reports”);

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

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

(d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, and not to distribute except as permitted under Section 11.16(a), or use any Report in any other manner; and

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

10.17 Application of Proceeds. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the ABL Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lender agree, as among such parties, as follows: subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Liquidity Event or an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the ABL Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on account of amounts then due and outstanding under any of the Loan Documents shall be applied as follows: first, to pay interest on and then principal of Agent Advances then outstanding, second, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of the Administrative Agent and the ABL Collateral Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders under the Loan Documents (including all expenses of sale or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral and any sums advanced to the Collateral or to preserve its security interest in the

-151-

Collateral), third, to pay interest on and then principal of Swing Line Loans then outstanding, fourth, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders in connection with enforcing such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, fifth, to pay interest on and then principal of Revolving Loans then outstanding and any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, and to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to all Obligations on account of Noticed Xxxxxx with Secured Parties if any to the extent reserved, sixth, to pay all other Secured Obligations and seventh, to pay the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. To the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit which are then not yet required to be reimbursed hereunder, such amounts shall be held by the ABL Collateral Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (x) first, to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (y) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in such clause “fifth.” To the extent any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” are insufficient to pay all obligations described therein in full, such moneys shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders and Issuing Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages.

Amounts distributed with respect to any Hedging Obligations shall be the lesser of the maximum Hedging Obligations last reported to the Administrative Agent or the actual Hedging Obligations as calculated by the methodology reported to the Administrative Agent for determining the amount due. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Hedging Obligations, and may request a reasonably detailed calculation of such amount from the applicable Secured Party. If a Secured Party fails to deliver such calculation within five days following request by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is zero.

10.18 Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

In connection with any such replacement under this subsection 11.1(f), if the Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement within a period of time deemed reasonable by the Administrative Agent after the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Parent Borrower owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Revolving Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and each Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender.

(g) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended in accordance with subsection 2.6 to incorporate the terms of any Additional Commitments (including to add a new revolving facility under this Agreement with respect to any Additional Commitment) with the written consent of the Parent Borrower and the Lenders providing such Additional Commitments, provided that if such amendment includes an Additional Commitment of a bank or other financial institution that is not at such time a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender, the inclusion of such bank or other financial institution as an Additional Lender shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) at the time of such amendment, (ii) the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan owed to any Lender may be extended, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be extended with the written consent of the Parent Borrower and such Lender, as contemplated by subsection 2.7 or otherwise, (iii) the Commitment of a Lender may be increased as contemplated by subsection 2.6 with the written consent of the Parent Borrower and such Lender, (iv) this Agreement may be amended in accordance with subsection 4.7 to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement and incorporate Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (v) the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement without the consent of any Lender to cure any ambiguity, mistake, omission, defect or inconsistency, in each case without the consent of any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to the limitations on non-pro rata payments in clause (b) of the proviso to the third sentence in subsection 2.7(c) and subsection 2.6(b)(ii)(II), any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including subsection 4.8(a) or 11.7 hereof,

-156-

may be amended as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence pursuant to any Additional Revolving Credit Amendment or any Extension Amendment, as the case may be, to provide for non-pro rata borrowings and payments of any amounts hereunder as between any Tranches, including any Additional Commitments or Additional Loans. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees (if requested by the Parent Borrower) to execute any amendment referred to in this clause (g) or an acknowledgement thereof.

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.2, 2.4, 4.2, 4.4 or 4.8 shall not be effective until received.

(b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender (in the case of a Borrowing of Swing Line Loans) or any Issuing Lender (in the case of the issuance of a Letter of Credit), as the case may be, may prior to receipt of written confirmation act without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice, believed by the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender in good faith to be from a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party or its Subsidiary.

The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

The Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes (with the Parent Borrower’s consent), (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written

-158-

acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the posting thereof.

11.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

11.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages in connection with the Facilities. All amounts due under this subsection shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall have no obligation under this subsection 11.5 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Taxes imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. The agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of the Revolving Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than in accordance with subsection 8.3, none of the Borrowers may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this subsection 11.6.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with applicable law, assign to one or more assignees (other than an Ineligible Institution or a Defaulting Lender) (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment and/or Loans, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Parent Borrower; provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; provided, further, that if any Lender assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one of its affiliates in connection with or in contemplation of the sale or other disposition of its interest in such affiliate, the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent shall be required for such assignment;

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

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans, the amount of Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5.0 million unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

-161-

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that for concurrent assignments to two or more Approved Funds such assignment fee shall only be required to be paid once in respect of and at the time of such assignments; and

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

For the purposes of this subsection 11.6, the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 (and bound by any related obligations under) subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 11.5, and bound by its continuing obligations under subsection 11.16. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 11.6 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 paragraph (c) of this subsection.

(iv) The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this subsection 11.6, to maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and interest and principal amount of the Revolving 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 the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the ABL Collateral Agent and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the 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

-162-

interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103‑1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the IRS, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and a Lender 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.

(vi) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this subsection and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance, record the information contained therein in the Register and give prompt notice of such assignment and recordation to the Borrower Representative. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(vii) On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this subsection 11.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender any outstanding Notes held by it all or a portion of which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Representative marked “cancelled.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 11.6(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, if the Parent Borrower shall have consented thereto in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans and Commitments via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”). At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed Assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Parent Borrower and shall be consistent with the other provisions of this subsection 11.6(b). Each assigning Lender and proposed Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection with effecting any assignment of Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Settlement Service. If so elected by each of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower in writing (it being understood that the Parent Borrower shall have no obligation to make such an election), the Administrative Agent’s and the Parent Borrower’s approval of such Assignee shall be deemed to have been automatically granted with respect to any transfer effected through the Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of the Revolving Loans and Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein until Administrative Agent notifies Lenders of the

-163-

Settlement Service as set forth herein. The Parent Borrower may withdraw its consent to the use of the Settlement Service at any time upon at least 10 Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and thereafter assignments and assumptions of the Revolving Loans and Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein.

(c) (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than an Ineligible Institution) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Revolving Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (D) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide, to the extent of such Participation, that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of subsection 11.1(a) and (2) directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) below of this subsection, the Parent Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 11.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this subsection (provided that that the documentation required under subection 4.11(e) shall be delivered solely to the Lender who sells the participation). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be subject to subsection 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under subsection 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation, except to the extent the entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in applicable law after the Participant became a Participant.

(iii) Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this subsection, any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may also sell participations on terms other than the terms set forth in paragraph (c)(i) above, provided such participations are on terms and to Participants satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Parent Borrower has consented to such terms and Participants in writing.

(d) Any Lender, without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or central bank, and this subsection 11.6 shall not

-164-

apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute (by foreclosure or otherwise) any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any Assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower if it would require the Parent Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any Assignee or Participant to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Revolving Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in subsection 11.6(b). Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any claim received from the Parent Borrower pursuant to this subsection 11.6(f) within 30 Business Days of receipt of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower specifying in reasonable detail the cause and amount of the loss, cost, damage or expense in respect of which the claim is being asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this subsection 11.6(f), in the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate the Parent Borrower for such claim, any Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Parent Borrower, be assigned promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and the designation of such Conduit Lender shall be void.

(g) If the Parent Borrower wishes to replace the Revolving Loans or Commitments with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders, instead of prepaying the Revolving Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with subsection 11.1 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to subsection 11.1(d)). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or

-165-

prepaid by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to subsection 4.12. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Revolving Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as Exhibit E, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

11.7 Adjustments; Set-off; Calculations; Computations.

(a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in subsection 9.1(f), or otherwise) (except pursuant to subsection 2.7, 4.4, 4.13, 11.1(f) or 11.6), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Revolving Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders an interest (by participation, assignment or otherwise) in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) to set-off and appropriate and apply against any amount then due and payable under subsection 9.1(a) by any Borrower any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

11.8 Judgment.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this subsection 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of

-166-

exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this subsection 11.8 being hereinafter in this subsection 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in subsection 11.8(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from any Loan Party under this subsection 11.8(b) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.

(c) The term “rate of exchange” in this subsection 11.8 means the rate of exchange at which the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 Noon (New York time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.

11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent.

11.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11.11 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of each of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Agents, the Issuing Lender or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

11.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this subsection any consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages.

provided or obtained, such information was already in an Agent’s or a Lender’s possession on a non-confidential basis without a duty of confidentiality to the Borrowers (or any of their respective Affiliates) being violated. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Assignment and Acceptance, the provisions of this subsection 11.16 shall survive with respect to each Agent and Lender until the second anniversary of such Agent or Lender ceasing to be an Agent of a Lender, respectively

11.20 Joint and Several Liability; Postponement of Subrogation.

(a) The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several and, as such, each Borrower shall be liable for all of the obligations of the other Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the fullest extent permitted by law the liability of each Borrower for the obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents of the other applicable Borrowers with whom it has joint and several liability shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the obligations hereunder or thereunder or any other collateral security therefore or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any applicable Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance hereunder; provided that no Borrower hereby waives any suit for breach of a contractual provision of any of the Loan Documents) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by such other applicable Borrower or any other Person against any Secured Party or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of such other applicable Borrower or such Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of such other applicable Borrower for the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or of such Borrower under this subsection 11.20, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Agreement, by any payments made hereunder or otherwise, until the prior payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments. Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and credited and applied against the obligations of the applicable Borrowers, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. In furtherance of the foregoing, for so long as any obligations of the Borrowers hereunder, any Letters of Credit or any Commitments remain outstanding, each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any other Borrower (or any of its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made in respect of the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document of such other Borrower to any Secured Party.

11.21 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition or other proceeding be filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should an interim receiver, receiver, receiver and manager or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan Party’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, or any party thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise

-171-

be restored or returned by any obligee of the obligations, whether as a fraudulent preference, reviewable transaction or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

11.22 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

11.23 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-in of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
