ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

Section 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, (a) each Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Initial Term Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) on the Closing Date in the principal amount equal to its Term Commitment on the Closing Date and (b) each Revolving Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis), at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date until the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, however, no Revolving Loans shall be permitted to be made on the Closing Date. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loan may not be reborrowed. Within the limits set forth in clause (b) of the second preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

Section 2.02 Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Revolving Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.18(e), any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.11 and 2.12, each Borrowing of Loans shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Administrative Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Lender to make such Loan or the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, that the Administrative Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than 10 Eurodollar Borrowings in the aggregate outstanding hereunder at any one time (or such greater number of Eurodollar Borrowings as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Except with respect to Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.18(e), each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate from time to time not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit or remit the amounts so received to an account in the United States as directed by the Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, promptly return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with clause (c) above, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the greater of the interest rate applicable at the time to ABR Loans of the applicable Class and the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender shall subsequently repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrowers’ obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease and any amounts previously so repaid by the Borrowers shall be returned to the Borrowers.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the applicable Maturity Date.

Section 2.03 Borrowing Procedure. (a) To request a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Borrowing, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver a written request (by hand delivery, email through a “pdf” copy or telecopier, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent)), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request for a Revolving Loan or a Term Loan shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(a);

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” contained herein;

(v) the location and number of the respective Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(c);

(vii) whether the requested Borrowing is to be a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Borrowing.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

(b) The Co-Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Borrower as its agent to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement in the name or on behalf of the Co-Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of the Administrative Borrower or the Co-Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide such Letters of Credit to a Borrower as the Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to the other Borrower or any Guarantor. The Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by the Co-Borrower to act as the agent of the Co-Borrower and agrees to ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to a Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of such Borrower, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower. The Co-Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking made on behalf of the Co-Borrower by the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by the Co-Borrower, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Co-Borrower to the same extent as if made directly by the Co-Borrower.

(c) All Loans or Letters of Credit requested by the Administrative Borrower for ultimate use by the Loan Parties may be drawn or obtained in the name of the Administrative Borrower or the name of the Co-Borrower. Upon request, the Administrative Borrower shall promptly confirm for the Administrative Agent that each Loan or Letter of Credit has been issued in the name of the appropriate Borrower and, in the event of any error, the respective records shall be adjusted without prejudice to the rights of the Agents or the Lenders.

Section 2.04 Repayment of Loans. (a) Each of the Borrowers hereby unconditionally promises, jointly and severally, to pay to (i) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender, the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Lender as provided in Section 2.09, (ii) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Revolving Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date and (iii) the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the date that is three Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided, that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by 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 accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from Borrowers to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to pay, and perform, the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such entries, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(e) Any Lender by written notice to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall promptly (and, in all events, within five Business Days of receipt of written notice) execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0 xx X-0, as the case may be.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual numbers of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day); provided, that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.13, bear interest for one day. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.

Section 2.07 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.21, the Term Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date. The Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) At their option, the Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided, that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000 and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall not be terminated or reduced if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments.

(c) Upon the incurrence of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders under the Class of Revolving Loans being refinanced shall be automatically and permanently reduced on a ratable basis by an amount equal to 100% of the Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments so incurred.

(d) The Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce Commitments of any Class under Section 2.07(b) at least five Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (which effective date shall be a Business Day), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of termination of all then remaining Commitments delivered by the Administrative Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities in order to refinance in full the Obligation hereunder, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Administrative Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments for such Class.

Section 2.08 Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request any conversion or continuation that, if made, would result in more than eight periods with respect to Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time (or such greater number of Eurodollar Borrowings as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted into a Eurodollar Borrowing and shall, at all times, be maintained as an ABR Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery, email through “pdf” copy or telecopies, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Administrative Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable.

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, or if outstanding Borrowings are being combined, allocation to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” contained herein.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If an Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require, by notice to the Administrative Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.09 Amortization of Term Borrowings. (a) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term Lenders, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 (commencing on September 30, 2014) or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day (each such date, a “Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Initial Term Loans equal to 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.10), together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) To the extent not previously irrevocably paid in full in cash, all Term Loans of a Class shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date for such Class of Term Loans.

Section 2.10 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans. (a) Optional Prepayments. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(h), the Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 2.10(g)) subject to the requirements of this Section 2.10; provided, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) In the event of the termination of all the Revolving Commitments, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and either (A) replace all outstanding Letters of Credit or (B) Cash Collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i).

(ii) In the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments by the Borrowers, then (x) at or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the Total Revolving Exposure after giving effect thereto and (y) if the Total Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, then the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, on the date of such reduction, first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans and third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(i) in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(iii) If at any time the Total Revolving Exposure exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans, and third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(iv) In the event that the aggregate Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure exceeds the LC Commitment then in effect, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, without notice or demand, immediately replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(v) No later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each Excess Cash Flow Period and (ii) the date on which the financial statements with respect to such fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow Period occurs are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a), the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(d) in an aggregate principal amount equal to (x) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is greater than or equal to 4.75:1.00, (y) 25% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than 4.75:1.00 but greater than or equal to 4.00:1.00 and (z) 0% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than 4.00:1.00; provided that the aggregate principal amount of optional prepayments of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10(a) (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Term Loans prepaid pursuant to a Discounted Prepayment Offer) and the aggregate principal amount of optional prepayments of Revolving Loans (but only to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction in the Total Revolving Commitments), in each case made during such Excess Cash Flow Period with Internally Generated Funds shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount of such mandatory prepayment otherwise required pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(v) in respect of such Excess Cash Flow Period.

(vi) Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Casualty Event by any Restricted Party (other than Net Cash Proceeds of less than $5,000,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Administrative Borrower), the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) apply 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(d); provided that: (x) so long as no Default shall then exist or would arise therefrom, such Net Cash Proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that the Administrative Borrower shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Net Cash Proceeds are reasonably expected to be reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) in fixed or capital assets of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (or, with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Venture, in a vessel (or vessels) that will become a Collateral Vessel (or Collateral Vessels)) within 12 months following the date of such Asset Sale or Casualty Event, as applicable (which Officer’s Certificate shall set forth the estimates of the Net Cash Proceeds to be so expended); provided that, if the property subject to such Asset Sale or Casualty Event constituted Collateral or Equity Interests in a Specified Joint Venture, then all property purchased or otherwise acquired with the Net Cash Proceeds thereof pursuant to this subsection shall be made subject to the First Priority perfected Lien (subject to Permitted Liens or, in the case of any Vessels, Permitted Collateral Vessel Liens) of the applicable Security Documents in favor of the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured Parties in accordance with Section 5.10 and the preceding proviso in the case of the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Ventures; and (y) if all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds is not so reinvested within such 12-month period (or if committed to be reinvested pursuant to a legally binding commitment within such 12-month period and not so reinvested within six months thereafter), such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.10(b)(vi); and provided, further, that (x) so long as no Default then exists or would result therefrom and (y) if the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales and/or Casualty Events exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be deposited in a Deposit Account (a “Reinvestment Proceeds Account”) of the Administrative Borrower with the Administrative Agent (or another Deposit Bank reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) pursuant to a cash collateral arrangement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (and subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement) whereby such Net Cash Proceeds shall be disbursed to the Administrative Borrower from time to time as needed to pay actual costs incurred by it or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor in connection with the replacement or restoration of the respective properties or assets (or, with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Venture, in connection with the reinvestment in or purchase of a Collateral Vessel (or Collateral Vessels)) (pursuant to such certification requirements as may be reasonably established by the Administrative Agent) (it being understood and agreed that at any time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent (in which case the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized by the Administrative Borrower to, follow said directions) to apply any or all proceeds then on deposit in such Reinvestment Proceeds Account to the repayment of the Secured Obligations).

(vii) Not later than one Business Day following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Debt Issuance by any Restricted Party, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(d) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(viii) Upon the incurrence or issuance by any Borrower of any Refinancing Notes or any Specified Refinancing Term Loans, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) prepay an aggregate principal amount of the applicable Class or Classes of Term Loans that are to be refinanced with the proceeds of such Refinancing Notes or Specified Refinancing Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(d) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom.

(d) Application of Prepayments. Prior to any optional prepayment hereunder, the Administrative Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(e), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(d). Any prepayments pursuant to Sections 2.10(b)(v)-(vii) shall be applied (i) first, to prepay principal of outstanding Term Loans and, to the extent so applied, to reduce future scheduled amortization payments required under Section 2.09 (including the payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) on a pro rata basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date, and (ii) second, to the extent there are prepayment amounts remaining after the application of such prepayments under preceding clause (i), such excess amounts shall be applied to the prepayment of principal of outstanding Revolving Loans (but without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments (unless an Event of Default then exists, in which case the Revolving Commitments shall be so reduced and the Borrowers shall comply with Sections 2.10(b)(i)-(iv)). Any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(viii) shall be applied to reduce future scheduled amortization payments required under Section 2.09 (including the payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) on a pro rata basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date. Optional prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to reduce future scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.09 (including the payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) in the manner directed by the Administrative Borrower in the respective notice of prepayment or, in the absence of such direction, in direct order of maturity. Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the prepayment of Loans of any Class shall be applied first to reduce outstanding ABR Loans of such Class. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar Loans of such Class.

(e) Notice of Prepayment. The Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of prepayment (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swingline Borrowing), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment, and (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of prepayment of all outstanding Loans may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities in order to refinance in full all Obligations hereunder, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Administrative Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each such notice shall specify the Class of Loans being prepaid, the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Such notice to the Lenders may be by electronic communication. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section 2.10. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.06.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10, (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans (other than any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(vii) or (viii)), any Term Lender may waive, by written notice to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required to be made hereunder, the right to receive its pro rata share of the amount of such mandatory prepayment of its Term Loans, and (ii) if any Term Lender or Term Lenders elect to waive the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment, all of the amount that otherwise would have been applied to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans of such Term Lender or Term Lenders may be retained by the Borrowers.

(g) Any (w) optional prepayment with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Term Loans, (x) mandatory prepayment with respect to all or any portion of the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b) (other than pursuant to clause (v) thereof and, to the extent made with the Net Cash Proceeds from a Casualty Event, clause (vi) thereof), (y) conversion of Initial Term Loans into any new or replacement tranche of term loans bearing interest at an Effective Yield less than the Effective Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as such comparative yields are determined by the Administrative Agent) and (z) amendment to this Agreement that, directly or indirectly, reduces the Effective Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans, in each case, shall be accompanied by the payment by the Borrowers, (on a joint and several basis) of a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term Loans repaid, converted or repriced, if such repayment, conversion or repricing is effected on or prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date. Any such determination by the Administrative Agent as contemplated by the preceding sentence shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and all Lenders, absent manifest error.

(h) Restrictions on Term Loan Prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, (x) if any Revolving Lender has any Revolving Exposure or any other outstanding Revolving Obligations and any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no optional prepayment of Term Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.10 and (y) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any mandatory repayment of Terms Loans is otherwise required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.10, then (i) (x) Swingline Loans, and if no Swingline Loans are or remain outstanding, Revolving Loans, and if no Swingline Loans or Revolving Loans are or remain outstanding, LC Exposure, shall first be repaid in full in cash or, in the case of Letters of Credit, Cash Collateralized, as applicable, in the amount otherwise required to be applied to the repayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10 in the absence of this clause (h) and (y) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Revolving Commitments also shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any required payment pursuant to preceding clause (x) (determined as if Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans were outstanding in such amount) and (ii) after application pursuant to preceding clause (i), any excess portion of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans not so applied shall be applied to the repayment of Term Loans as otherwise required by this Section 2.10 in the absence of this clause (h). If any Lender collects or receives any amounts received on account of the Obligations to which it is not entitled as a result of the application of this Section 2.10(h), such Lender shall hold the same in trust for the Revolving Lenders and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, for the account of the applicable Revolving Lenders, to be applied in accordance with this Section 2.10(h). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Section 2.10(h) is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable non-bankruptcy law.

Section 2.11 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

Section 2.12 Increased Costs; Change in Legality. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, liquidity or similar requirement against property of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Bank;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than with respect to Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.15, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (f) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, principal, letters of credit, Commitments or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will, jointly and severally, pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; it being understood that this Section 2.12 shall not apply to Taxes that are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.15.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines (in good faith, but in its sole absolute discretion) that any Change in Law regarding Capital Requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will, jointly and severally, pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that (i) the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor, (ii) if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to indicate the period of retroactive effect thereof and (iii) such increased costs or reductions shall only be payable by the Borrowers to the applicable Lender or the Issuing Bank under this Section 2.12 to the extent that such Lender or Issuing Bank is generally imposing such charges on similarly situated borrowers.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Administrative Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness (as determined in good faith by such Lender)) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans), whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Loan (or to convert an ABR Loan to a Eurodollar Loan or to continue a Eurodollar Loan for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn by such Lender by written notice to the Administrative Borrower and to the Administrative Agent; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.12(f).

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

(f) For purposes of clause (e) of this Section 2.12, a notice to the Administrative Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Administrative Borrower.

Section 2.13 Breakage Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory, of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (whether or not such notice is permitted to be withdrawn by the Borrowers), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (including any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profits). Each Lender shall calculate any amount or amounts in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.13 shall not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.15 shall govern.

Section 2.14 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or Reimbursement Obligations or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000; Attn: Account Manager – Overseas Shipholding, Group (OIN), except that payments pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 11.03 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars; provided that, LC Disbursements paid by the Borrowers in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made in such Alternative Currency.

(b) Subject to Section 9.01, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay in full all amounts of principal, Reimbursement Obligations, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties.

(c) Other than in connection with a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.22 or as provided in Section 2.10(b)(viii), if any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim (including pursuant to Section 11.08) or otherwise (including by exercise of its rights under the Security Documents), obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans, or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender (x) as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any Eligible Assignee or participant, other than to any Company or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall apply) or (y) in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.21(e). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirements, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. If under applicable Insolvency Law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this Section 2.14(c) applies, such Secured Party shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Secured Party is entitled under this Section 2.14(c) to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, 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 Bank, 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 Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.14(d), 2.17(d), 2.18(d), 2.18(e) or 11.03(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.15 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and free and clear of and without deduction, reduction or withholding for any and all Taxes except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. If any amounts on account of Indemnified Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by or on behalf of such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions, reductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions, reductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions, reductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount deducted or withheld in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, or at the option of the Administrative Agent reimburse it for payment of any Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and any penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Administrative Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (in each case with a copy delivered concurrently to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.04(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 30 days following any such payment being due, by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the Tax Return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrowers fail to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fail to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other documentary evidence, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank for any incremental Taxes or expenses that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as a result of any such failure.

(f) Any Foreign 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 Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent such properly completed and executed documentation and information reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally able to do so, (i) furnish to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto, either (a) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) (claiming the benefits of an applicable tax treaty), (b) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI (or successor form), together with required attachments, (c) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY (or successor form), (d) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8EXP (or successor form) or (e) if such Foreign Lender is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption,” an accurate and complete originally executed “Portfolio Interest Certificate” in the form of Exhibit K and two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), in the case of each of the preceding clauses (a) through (e), together with any required schedules or attachments, certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to all payments hereunder, (ii) promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent if such Foreign Lender no longer qualifies for the exemption or reduction that it previously claimed as a result of change in such Foreign Lender’s circumstances, and (iii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form), Form W-8IMY (or successor form), Form W-8EXP (or successor form) and/or Portfolio Interest Certificate upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form, or at any other time upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder. Each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form) or otherwise establish an exemption from U.S. backup withholding and (ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-9 (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form, or at any other time upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to reconfirm its complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder.

(g) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document may be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed under 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 Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (A) such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code), and (B) such other documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment, or notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower that such Lender is not in compliance with FATCA. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.15(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender (or an assignee) determines in its sole discretion that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or the Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay all or a portion of such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority, the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee), shall repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers that is required to be repaid (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) within three Business Days after receipt of written notice that the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay such refund (or a portion thereof) to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.15(h) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential or privileged to the Borrowers or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

Section 2.16 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Mitigation of Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b), or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce materially amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12(a), 2.12(b) or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, (iii) would not require such Lender to take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions, and (iv) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or (b), (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.12(e), (iii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrowers that requires the consent of 100% of the Lenders or 100% of all affected Lenders and which, in each case, has been consented to by the Required Lenders or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 11.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to restrictions contained in Section 11.04; provided that the failure of such assigning Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not affect the validity and effect of such assignment), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee which shall assume such assigned obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided, that (w) except in the case of clause (iv) above if the effect of such amendment, waiver or other modification of the applicable Loan Document would cure any Default then ongoing, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any applicable Legal Requirement, (y) the Administrative Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest and any prepayment premium or penalty (if any) accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or LC Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, respectively, affected by such assignment (including, in the case of any replacement of a Term Lender pursuant to clause (iv) above on or prior to the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, any premium payable pursuant to Section 2.10(g) on the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of such Lender subject to such assignment) plus all Fees and other amounts owing to or accrued for the account of such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Sections 2.12 and 2.13); provided, further, that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.13(a) or (b) or notice under Section 2.12(e) or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.12(e), or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.15, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.16), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.12(e) or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.15 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender and the Issuing Bank as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.16(b). After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit.

(c) Defaulting Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then (i) during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender,” and the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans, Term Commitments, Term Loans, Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be excluded for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents, except that the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans, Term Commitments, Term Loans, Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be included for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on the matters set forth in Sections 11.02(b)(i)-(viii) and 11.02(b)(x)-(xii) (including the granting of any consents or waivers) only to the extent that any such matter disproportionately affects such Defaulting Lender; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (A) any optional prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall, if the Administrative Borrower so directs at the time of making such optional prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Loans of other Revolving Lenders in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had no Revolving Loans outstanding and the Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (B) any mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 shall, if the Administrative Borrower so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Loans and Revolving Exposure of other Revolving Lenders (but not to the Revolving Loans and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender) in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that the Borrowers shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (B); (iii) the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans and LC Exposure shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the Commitment Fee payable to Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(a) in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.05(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment in respect of any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; (iv) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: (A) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments but, in any case, only to the extent the sum of the Revolving Exposures of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders does not exceed the total of the Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders; (B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) prepay such Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender and (y) Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; (C) if the Borrowers Cash Collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this clause (iv), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any LC Participation Fee to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized; (D) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this clause (iv), then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ reallocated LC Exposure; and (E) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this clause (iv), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and LC Participation Fee payable under Section 2.05 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated; (v) the Revolving Exposure of all Lenders as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender; and (vi) so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with clause (iv) of this Section 2.16(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with clause (iv)(A) of this Section 2.16(c) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure, LC Exposure and Revolving Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Commitment.

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Funding Default” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the occurrence of any of the events set forth in the definition of “Defaulting Lender,” (ii) “Default Period” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the period commencing on the date of the applicable Funding Default and ending on the earliest of the following dates: (a) the date on which all Commitments are cancelled or terminated and/or the Obligations are declared or become immediately due and payable; (b) with respect any Funding Default (other than any such Funding Default arising pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”), the date on which (1) the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero (whether by the funding by such Defaulting Lender of any Revolving Loan of such Defaulting Lender (such Revolving Loans being “Defaulted Loans”) or by the non-pro rata application of any optional or mandatory prepayments of the Revolving Loans in accordance with the terms hereof or any combination thereof) and (2) such Defaulting Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent a written reaffirmation of its intention to honor its obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Revolving Commitment; and (c) the date on which the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders waive all Funding Defaults of such Defaulting Lender in writing, and (iii) “Default Excess” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the excess, if any, of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans of all Revolving Lenders (calculated as if all Defaulting Lenders (including such Defaulting Lender) had funded all of their respective Defaulted Loans) over the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

No amount of the Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.16(c), performance by the Borrowers of their obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of Section 2.16(c). The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under Section 2.16(c) are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

Section 2.17 Swingline Loans

(a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) from time to time on any Business Day after the Closing Date and during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (and upon each such Borrowing of Swingline Loans, each Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that such Borrowing will not result in) (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Swingline Commitment, or (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Commitments at such time; provided, that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance, in whole or in part, any outstanding Swingline Loans. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery, email through a “pdf” copy or telecopier, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Swingline Loan, the location and number of the respective Borrower’s account to which the funds are to be disbursed (which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)), and that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and (c)) are satisfied as of the date of the notice. Each Swingline Loan shall be (and shall be maintained as) an ABR Loan. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Administrative Borrower with the Swingline Lender, if any, or otherwise remitted to an account (which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)) as directed by the Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.18(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank). The Swingline Lender shall endeavor to fund each Swingline Loan by 3:00 p.m., New York City time and shall in all events fund each Swingline Loan by no later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 above such amount.

(c) Prepayment. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon the Administrative Borrower giving written notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of repayment.

(d) Participations. The Swingline Lender (i) may at any time in its discretion and (ii) as directed by the Administrative Agent from time to time on not less than one Business Day’s written notice to the Swingline Lender shall, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent (provided such notice requirements shall not apply if the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same entity) not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following such notice, require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.17(d) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or a reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this Section 2.17(d) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired by the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.17(d), and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrowers (or other party on behalf of the Borrowers) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent. Any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this Section 2.17(d), as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this Section 2.17(d) shall not relieve the Borrowers of any default in the payment thereof. Subject to Sections 2.10(c), 2.14(b) and 9.01, the Administrative Agent may apply payments on Revolving Loans to Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the Borrowers to the contrary. The provisions of this Section 2.17(d) are solely for the benefit of the Swingline Lender and the other Lenders, and none of the Loan Parties may rely on this Section 2.17(d) or have any standing to enforce its terms.

(e) Resignation or Removal of the Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender may resign as Swingline Lender hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower. Following such notice of resignation from the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Administrative Borrower (with the Administrative Borrower’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Administrative Agent and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall repay the outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans and shall pay all interest and unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans to be made by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of the Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(e) or otherwise, the Swingline Lender may not resign until such time as a successor Swingline Lender has been appointed.

Section 2.18 Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Borrower may request the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank agrees, to issue Letters of Credit for the Administrative Borrower’s account or the account of the Co-Borrower or another Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower, in each case to support payment and performance obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business by the Administrative Borrower and its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries (other than obligations in respect of any Restricted Indebtedness or Equity Interests) in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period (provided, that each Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or another Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower). The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, and the Administrative Borrower shall not request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit at any time if after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure would exceed the LC Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments at such time, or (iii) the expiry date of the proposed Letter of Credit is, subject to Section 2.18(c), on or after the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Administrative Borrower to, or entered into by the Administrative Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall Jefferies Finance LLC, as Issuing Bank, have any obligation to issue any commercial or trade Letters of Credit.

(b) Request for Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver by hand, email through a “pdf” copy or telecopies, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Issuing Bank) an LC Request to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day preceding the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (or such later date and time as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank).

A request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank:

(i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day);

(ii) the face amount and currency (which must be Dollars or an Alternative Currency) thereof;

(iii) the expiry date thereof (which shall not be, subject to Section 2.18(c), later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date);

(iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof;

(v) whether the Letter of Credit is to be issued for the Administrative Borrower’s own account or for the account of the Co-Borrower or other Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries of the Administrative Borrower (provided, that each Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower);

(vi) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder;

(vii) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; and

(viii) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may reasonably require.

A request for an amendment, renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank:

(i) the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended;

(ii) the proposed date of amendment, renewal or extension thereof (which shall be a Business Day);

(iii) the nature of the proposed amendment, renewal or extension;

(iv) the expiry date thereof (which shall not be, subject to Section 2.18(c), later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date); and

(v) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may reasonably require.

If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall apply in respect of all such applications. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments at such time and (iii) the conditions set forth in Article IV in respect of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension shall have been satisfied. Unless the Issuing Bank shall agree otherwise, no Letter of Credit shall be in an initial amount less than the Dollar Amount of $50,000.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date which is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, that this Section 2.18(c) shall not prevent the Issuing Bank from agreeing that a Letter of Credit (x) will, upon the request of the Administrative Borrower, automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each (and, in any case, not to extend beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date) unless the Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period or (y) may have an expiry date beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date so long as the requested Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.18(i) at least five Business Days prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in Section 2.18(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.18(d) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment).

(e) Reimbursement. (i) If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement (and in the same currency in which such LC Disbursement was made or, at the option of the Issuing Bank in the case of an LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, in the Dollar Amount thereof) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made if the Administrative Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Administrative Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Administrative Borrower receives such notice; provided, that the Administrative Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with ABR Revolving Loans in an equivalent Dollar Amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loans.

(ii) If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, or if the amount is not financed pursuant to the proviso to Section 2.18(e)(i), the Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received such notice later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any day, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrowers pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.18(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Lender makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as appropriate.

(iii) If any Revolving Lender shall not have made the Dollar Amount of its Pro Rata Percentage of such LC Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, each of the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) and such Revolving Lender severally agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided, that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.18(e), then the Default Rate shall apply and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers as provided in Section 2.18(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.18, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of any Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (vi) any material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), material agreements, properties, solvency, business, management, prospects or value of any Company; or (vii) any other fact, circumstance or event whatsoever. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential, exemplary, special, punitive or other indirect damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision) with respect to such a determination, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower of such demand for payment (and the amount thereof stated in the applicable currency) and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their joint and several Reimbursement Obligations to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Section 2.18(e)).

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the Dollar Amount of the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on demand, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is paid or disbursed to but excluding the date the Issuing Bank was reimbursed by the Borrowers therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Revolving Loans; provided, however, to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day following such payment or disbursement or following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8.01(g) or (h), interest shall thereafter accrue on the Dollar Amount of the amounts so paid or disbursed by the Issuing Bank (and until reimbursed by the Borrowers) at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.18(h) shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Cash Collateralization. If (x) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(i) or (y) if any other event occurs or condition exists requiring the Borrowers to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall deposit in the LC Sub-Account, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount in cash equal to 103% of the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 8.01. Funds in the LC Sub-Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations of the Borrowers in accordance with Article IX. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount plus any accrued interest with respect to such amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall, in accordance with Article IX, be returned to the Administrative Borrower within 10 Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. To secure the LC Exposure and the other Secured Obligations, the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors hereby grant a security interest to the Collateral Agent in any cash collateral deposited with the Collateral Agent, including the LC Sub-Account.

(j) Additional Issuing Banks. The Administrative Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate one or more additional Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement, with the written consent of each of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), each then existing Issuing Bank (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Revolving Lender(s). Any Revolving Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this Section 2.18(j) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Revolving Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Lender in its capacity as Issuing Bank, as the context shall require.

(k) Resignation and Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower. Following such resignation, the Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank or any such additional Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(c). From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement or addition, as applicable, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or such additional or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such additional and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, the Administrative Borrower may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.

(l) Other. The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to issue (or increase or extend or otherwise amend) any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any Order of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve, liquidity or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and, in each case, which the Issuing Bank deems material to it; or

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of general application of the Issuing Bank.

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

(m) Currency Equivalents. The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency and any Reimbursement Obligation in respect thereof (i) as of the day of any issuance of a Letter of Credit, (ii) as of the day of any increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit, (iii) as of the day of any drawing thereunder, (iv) as of the end of each month of the Administrative Borrower and (v) as of any other day as the Issuing Bank may reasonably require, and shall promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of each Dollar Amount so determined by it. Each such determination shall be based on the Exchange Rate (w) on the date of the related LC Request for purposes of the initial such determination for any Letter of Credit or any increase in the amount thereof, (x) as of the date of any drawing under any such Letter of Credit, (y) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined and (z) as of such other date as the Issuing Bank may reasonably require, for purposes of any subsequent determination (any such date pursuant to clause (w), (x), (y) or (z) an “Exchange Rate Reset Date”).

Section 2.19 Nature of Obligations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is understood and agreed by the various parties to this Agreement that all Obligations to repay principal of, interest on, and all other amounts with respect to, all Loans, Letters of Credit and all other Obligations pursuant to this Agreement and each other Loan Document (including all fees, indemnities, taxes and other Obligations in connection therewith or in connection with the related Revolving Commitments) shall constitute the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for all Obligations regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds of any Loan or the benefit of any Letter of Credit. In addition to the direct (and joint and several) obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Obligations as described above, all such Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the Guarantees.

(b) The obligations of each Borrower with respect to the Obligations are independent of one another and of the obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantees of such Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Borrower and each Guarantor (in its capacity as a Guarantor), whether or not any other Borrower or Guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to any Borrower shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Borrower.

(c) Each of the Borrowers authorizes the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and the Loan Documents:

(i) exercise or refrain from exercising rights against the other Borrower or any Guarantor or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(ii) release or substitute the other Borrower, endorsers, Guarantors or other obligors;

(iii) settle or compromise any of the Obligations of the other Borrower or any other Loan Party, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Lenders;

(iv) apply any sums paid by the other Borrower or any other person, howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of such other Borrower or other person regardless of what liability or liabilities of such other Borrower or other person remain unpaid; and/or

(v) consent to or waive any breach of, or act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein, or otherwise, by the other Borrower or any other person.

(d) It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall constitute the joint and several obligations of the respective Borrowers hereunder.

(e) No Borrower shall exercise any rights of contribution or subrogation with respect to any other Borrower as a result of payments made by it hereunder at any time that an Event of Default exists and is continuing (or would result therefrom). This clause (e) is intended only to define the relative rights of the Borrowers, and nothing set forth in this clause (e) is intended or shall impair the joint and several obligations of each Borrower to pay the Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof.

(f) Each Borrower waives any right to require the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders to (a) proceed against the other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from either Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party or (c) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or Lenders’ power whatsoever. Each Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of suretyship or any impairment of security held from any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party or on or arising out of any defense of the other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations, including any defense based on or arising out of the disability of any other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Borrower, in each case other than as a result of the payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

Section 2.20 Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Request”) made from time to time by the Borrowers to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like Maturity Date or Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Request to extend the Maturity Date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Request (including by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Term Loans and the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) (in each case not so extended), being a “Class”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term Loans from which they were converted and any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from the Class of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) except as to interest rates, fees, optional redemption or prepayment terms, final maturity, and after the final maturity date of the Revolving Commitment, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrowers and the relevant Revolving Lenders and set forth in the relevant Extension Request), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment” and the Revolving Loans thereunder, “Extended Revolving Loans”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Revolving Lenders, as the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except (A) for payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) for repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments) of Revolving Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date, and (C) as otherwise provided in Section 2.23 with respect to Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments that are unsecured or secured on a junior basis shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans which mature or expire after a Maturity Date when there exist Extended Revolving Commitments with a longer Maturity Date, all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Revolving Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments (without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued, although the respective Extension Amendment may contain technical changes related to the borrowing, replacement Letter of Credit and Swingline Loan procedures of the Revolving Commitments in respect of which the Extended Revolving Commitments were extended), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any Revolving Facility on a better than pro rata basis as compared to any other Revolving Facility with a later Maturity Date (x) if agreed to by the Revolving Lenders in respect of such Revolving Facility with a later Maturity Date in the respective Extension Amendment or (y) if such Extended Revolving Commitments are unsecured or secured on a junior basis, (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and (5) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments, Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than three different Revolving Maturity Dates; (ii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, optional prepayments, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iii), (iv) and (vi), be determined by the Borrowers and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant Extension Request), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Term Loans subject to such Extension Request (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the then Latest Maturity Date), (iii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date, (iv) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby, (v) the Extended Term Loans and the Extended Revolving Commitments shall not be (A) secured by any Lien on any asset other than the Collateral and (B) guaranteed by any person other than the Guarantors, (vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any optional or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Request, (vii) if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to such Extension Request, then the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, of such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Request (subject to rounding required by the Administrative Agent) and (viii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans or Revolving Commitments extended pursuant to an Extension Request.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.20, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.10 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.20 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.10 and 2.14(a)) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.20.

(c) The Administrative Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least 15 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.20. Any Extending Lender wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its existing Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to such Extension Request that it has elected to convert into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent and proration as provided in clause (vii) of Section 2.20(a)).

(d) Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement and, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the other Loan Documents (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.20(d) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 11.02, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the respective Extending Lenders. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by Section 2.20(a), each Extension Amendment may amend this Agreement to ensure ratable participation in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans by Extended Revolving Commitments. It is understood and agreed that each Lender hereunder has consented, 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 Section 2.20 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith.

In connection with any Extension Amendment, the Borrowers shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (i) 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 (in the case of such other Loan Documents as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence) and (ii) covering such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Amendment”) within 15 days following the effective date of such Extension Amendment, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion and extension of Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Exposure) or Term Loans, as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Exposure) or Extended Term Loans, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Amendment, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Amendment described in Section 2.20(d)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.20(d).

(f) No exchange or conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.20 shall (x) be made at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and no Extension Request shall be delivered to the Lenders at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) and (y) constitute an optional or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.21 Increases of the Commitments.

(a) The Borrowers may, from time to time after the Closing Date, request to increase the then effective aggregate principal amount of (x) the Term Commitments and make Term Loans pursuant thereto (such Term Loans, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (y) the Revolving Commitments of any Revolving Facility (such Revolving Commitments, “Incremental Revolving Commitments”) and make Revolving Loans pursuant thereto (such Revolving Loans, “Incremental Revolving Loans”); provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of (x) all increases in the Term Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21 and the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans made pursuant thereto and (y) all increases in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall not exceed the greater of (A) $75,000,000 and (B) an additional amount so long as, in the case of this clause (B), if, after giving effect to any such increase and the incurrence of the Incremental Term Loans and/or any Incremental Revolving Loans pursuant thereto on a Pro Forma Basis (but, for this purpose, assuming that Incremental Revolving Loans are incurred at such time in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Incremental Revolving Commitments so obtained (whether or not such Incremental Revolving Loans are actually incurred at such time), the Administrative Borrower shall be in compliance with a Total Secured Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.00:1.00 for the Test Period most recently ended for which financial statements have been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(iii) or (b)(iii), as applicable, and the aggregate principal amount of any requested increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 (or $5,000,000 in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments or, in either case, such lower amount that represents all remaining availability pursuant to this Section 2.21); provided that the Borrowers may not obtain more than $25,000,000 in the aggregate of Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21;

(ii) the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans pursuant to any such increase shall be on the effective date of the respective Incremental Loan Amendment and the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans shall be used for the purposes permitted by Section 3.12;

(iii) the Borrowers and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver such agreements, instruments and documents and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such increases and at the time of any such proposed increase;

(iv) (x) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur after giving effect to such increase and the application of proceeds therefrom and (y) both immediately before and after giving effect to any such increase and the application of proceeds therefrom, each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party set forth in Article III or in any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all respects in the case of representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the date of such increase with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all respects in the case of representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of such earlier date);

(v) immediately after giving effect to any such increase and/or the incurrence of any such Incremental Term Loans and the application of proceeds therefrom (but, for this purpose, assuming that Incremental Revolving Loans are incurred at such time in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Incremental Revolving Commitments so obtained (whether or not such Incremental Revolving Loans are actually incurred at such time), the Administrative Borrower shall be in compliance with the Loan to Value Test; and

(vi) (A) in the case of any Revolving Facility, the terms of the respective Incremental Revolving Commitments (including as to maturity and pricing) shall be the same as the Revolving Facility being increased and the documentation applicable to such Revolving Facility shall apply and (B) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, except as otherwise required below, all other terms of such Incremental Term Loans, if not consistent with the terms of the Initial Term Loans, will be as agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans (and to the extent not consistent with the Initial Term Loans, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent); provided, however, that (x) in the case of a new Class of Incremental Term Loans, (I) the maturity and amortization of such Class of Incremental Term Loans may differ, so long as such Class of Incremental Term Loans shall have (a) a final stated maturity date of no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date then in effect and (b) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity as then in effect for the Initial Term Loans (other than to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated or reduced as a result of prepayment of such Initial Term Loans) and (II) the Effective Yield for such new Class of Incremental Term Loans may exceed the Effective Yield then applicable to the Initial Term Loans, provided that, in the event that the Effective Yield for such new Class of Incremental Term Loans incurred on or prior to the eighteen month anniversary of the Closing Date exceeds the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50%, the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased (to the extent necessary) such that the Effective Yield thereof is not less than the Effective Yield of such new Class of Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50%, (y) Incremental Term Loans will share ratably in right of prepayment with the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 (unless the Lenders holding such Incremental Term Loans agree to participate on a less than ratable basis) and (z) in the case of Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to (and to constitute a part of) the Initial Term Loans, (I) such new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same Term Loan Repayment Dates as then remain with respect to such Initial Term Loans (with the amount of each payment on each Term Loan Repayment Date applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans to be the same (on a proportionate basis) as is theretofore applicable to the Initial Term Loans, thereby increasing the amount of each then remaining payment on each Term Loan Repayment Date proportionately, (II) such new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same Applicable Margin as the Initial Term Loans; provided that, if the Applicable Margin for such new Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans, the Applicable Margin for such Initial Term Loans shall be increased by an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency, (III) subject to preceding clause (II), the Effective Yield applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrowers and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans; provided that if the Effective Yield of such new Incremental Term Loans exceeds the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans, the Effective Yield for such Initial Term Loans shall be increased (to the extent necessary) such that the Effective Yield thereof is not less than the Effective Yield of such new Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50%, and (IV) on the date of the making of such new Incremental Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.08, such new Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and form part of) each Borrowing of outstanding Initial Term Loans on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various outstanding Borrowings), so that each Lender will participate proportionately in each then outstanding Borrowing of Initial Term Loans and the Borrowers hereby agree, jointly and severally, to compensate the Lenders making the new Incremental Term loans of the respective Class for funding Eurodollar Loans during an existing Interest Period on such basis as may be agreed by the Administrative Borrower and the respective Lender or Lenders or as may otherwise be provided in the respective Incremental Loan Amendment.

(b) Any request under this Section 2.21 shall be submitted by the Administrative Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly forward copies to the Lenders). The Administrative Borrower may also specify any fees offered to those Lenders (the “Increasing Lenders”) that agree to increase the principal amount of their Term Commitments and make Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto and/or their Revolving Commitments and make Incremental Revolving Loans pursuant thereto, which fees may be variable based upon the amount by which any such Lender is willing to increase the amount of its Term Commitment and make Incremental Term Loans and/or its Revolving Commitments and make Incremental Revolving Loans pursuant thereto. No Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to offer to increase the aggregate amount of its Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment. Only the consent of each Increasing Lender shall be required for an increase in the aggregate amount of the Term Commitments and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.21. No Lender which declines to increase the amount of its Term Commitment and/or Revolving Commitments may be replaced with respect to its existing Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment as a result thereof without such Lender’s consent.

(c) Each Increasing Lender shall as soon as reasonably practicable specify in writing the amount of the proposed increase of the Term Commitments and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, that it is willing to assume (provided that any Lender not so responding within five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be specified by the Administrative Agent) shall be deemed to have declined such a request). The Borrowers may accept some or all of the offered amounts or designate new lenders that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with this Section 2.21 (each such new lender being a “New Lender”), which New Lenders may assume all or a portion of the increase in the aggregate amount of the applicable Term Commitments and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, shall have discretion jointly to adjust the allocation of the increased aggregate principal amount of the Term Commitments and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, among Increasing Lenders and New Lenders.

(d) Subject to the foregoing, any increase requested by the Borrowers shall be effective upon (A) delivery to the Administrative Agent of each of the following documents: (i) an originally executed copy of a joinder agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Joinder Agreement”) signed by a duly authorized officer of each New Lender (if any); (ii) a notice to the Increasing Lenders and New Lenders, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, signed by a Financial Officer of the Administrative Borrower; (iii) an Officer’s Certificate of the Administrative Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; (iv) to the extent requested by any New Lender or Increasing Lender, executed Notes issued by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.04(e); (v) an amendment (an “Incremental Loan Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by each Borrower, each Guarantor, each Increasing Lender (if any), each New Lender (if any) and the Administrative Agent; and (vi) any other certificates or documents that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (B) satisfaction on the effective date of the Incremental Loan Amendment of (x) each of the conditions specified in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Extension” or similar language in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of the Incremental Loan Amendment), and (y) such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. Any such increase shall be in an aggregate amount equal to (A) the amount that Increasing Lenders are willing to assume as increases to the amount of their Term Commitments or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, plus (B) the amount offered by New Lenders with respect to the Term Commitments or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in either case as adjusted by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.21. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.02, the Administrative Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of the other Lenders, to amend the Loan Documents to the extent necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to give effect to any increases pursuant to this Section 2.21.

(e) On each effective date with respect to any increase to any Revolving Facility pursuant to this Section 2.21, (x) each Revolving Lender in respect of such Revolving Facility immediately prior to such increase or incurrence will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Increasing Lender and/or New Lender, as applicable, providing a portion of the increase to such Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”), and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding LC Exposure under the applicable Revolving Facility and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in LC Expsoure and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) under the applicable Revolving Facility will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments in respect of such Revolving Facility of all Revolving Lenders represented by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment in respect of such Revolving Facility and (y) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effective date of such increase be prepaid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 2.13. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 2.22 Discounted Voluntary Prepayments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.10 or any other provision of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth or referred to below, the Borrowers may from time to time, at their discretion, offer to prepay Term Loans at less than the principal amount thereof (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Offer”), and with each such Discounted Prepayment Offer to be managed exclusively by the Auction Manager, so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) each Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.22 and the Auction Procedures;

100

(ii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the delivery of any Auction Notice and at the time of prepayment of any Term Loans in connection with any Discounted Prepayment Offer;

(iii) the minimum aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans that the Borrowers shall offer to prepay in any such Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent);

(iv) all Term Loans so prepaid by the Borrowers shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrowers on the applicable settlement date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, may not be reborrowed);

(v) no more than one Discounted Prepayment Offer may be ongoing at any one time and no more than four Discounted Prepayment Offers may be made in any four-quarter period;

(vi) the Borrowers represent and warrant that, at the commencement and settlement of the Discounted Prepayment Offer, they do not have material information regarding the Term Loans or Holdings, the Administrative Borrower, their respective Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates that has not been disclosed to those who are not Lenders or shall disclose to the Lenders that it cannot make such representation and warranty;

(vii) each Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be open and offered to all Lenders of the relevant Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis;

(viii) no purchase of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall be made with proceeds received from the incurrence of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans; and

(ix) at the time of the consummation of each purchase of Term Loans through a Discounted Prepayment Offer, the Administrative Borrower shall have delivered to the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent an officer’s certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Administrative Borrower certifying as to compliance with preceding clauses (ii), (vi) and (vii).

(b) The Borrowers must terminate any Discounted Prepayment Offer if they fail to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time at which the Term Loans would have been prepaid pursuant to such Discounted Prepayment Offer. If the Borrowers commence any Discounted Prepayment Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Discounted Prepayment Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Borrowers reasonably believe that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the consummation of such Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be satisfied, then the Borrowers shall have no liability to any Lender or any other person for any termination of such Discounted Prepayment Offer as a result of their failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time which otherwise would have been the time of consummation of such Discounted Prepayment Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Default hereunder. With respect to all prepayments of Term Loans made by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.22, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay on the settlement date of each such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant Auction Procedures), if any, on the prepaid Term Loans up to the settlement date of such prepayment.

101

(c) All Term Loan prepayments conducted pursuant to Discounted Prepayment Offers shall not constitute optional or mandatory prepayments for purposes of Section 2.10, but the face amount of the Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall be applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans in inverse order of maturity.

(d) Immediately upon a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.22, (x) such Term Loans and all rights and obligations as a Lender related thereto shall for all purposes (including under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise) be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrowers shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such payment and (y) the Borrowers shall take all actions necessary to cause such Term Loans to be extinguished or otherwise cancelled in its books and records in accordance with GAAP.

(e) The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article X and Section 11.03 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Discounted Prepayment Offer.

(f) No Lender shall be obligated or required to participate in any Discounted Prepayment Offer.

provided that any such Specified Refinancing Term Loans and Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments: (i) will rank pari passu in right of payment as the other Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, hereunder; (ii) will be incurred, jointly and severally, by the Borrowers and will not be guaranteed by any person that is not a Guarantor; (iii) will be, if secured, (1) secured solely by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Liens securing the Obligations and (2) subject to intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(vi) any Specified Refinancing Term Loans and Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments will share ratably (or if unsecured or junior as to security, on a junior basis in respect of) any optional and mandatory prepayments of Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable (unless the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, agree to participate on a less than pro rata basis in any such optional or mandatory prepayments); (vii) subject to clauses (iv) and (v) above, will have terms and conditions (other than pricing and optional prepayment and redemption terms) that are substantially identical to, or less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, than, the terms and conditions of the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments being refinanced (provided that a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Administrative Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent in good faith at least five Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Administrative Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements set forth in this clause (vii) shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy such requirement unless the Administrative Agent provides notice to the Administrative Borrower of an objection (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it objects) within five Business Days after being notified of such determination by the Administrative Borrower); and (viii) (x) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Term Loans being so refinanced, in each case pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(viii) and (y) upon the incurrence of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Commitments being refinanced shall be permanently reduced as, and to the extent, provided in Section 2.07(c); provided, however, that (A) the Net Cash Proceeds from any incurrence of Specified Refinancing Term Loans may not be used to prepay any Class of outstanding Term Loans that are either unsecured or secured on a junior basis to the Obligations at a time when more senior Term Loans are outstanding (or will remain outstanding after giving effect to any such prepayment), (B) Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments may not be used to refinance any Class of Revolving Commitments that are either unsecured or secured on a junior basis to other Classes of Revolving Commitments at a time when more senior Revolving Commitments are outstanding (or will remain outstanding after giving effect to any such refinancing) and (C) such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, (x) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed among the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the then Latest Maturity Date in effect and (y) shall not have a principal amount (or accreted value) greater than the Term Loans being refinanced (plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all fees, discounts, premiums or expenses incurred in connection therewith) or the Revolving Commitments being refinanced, as applicable. The Administrative Borrower shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to a written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. Any proposed Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall first be requested on a ratable basis from existing Lenders in respect of the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments being refinanced. At the time of sending such notice to such Lenders, the Administrative Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each applicable Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than 15 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion).

Any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and each applicable Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested issuance of Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Administrative Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders in respect of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to a joinder agreement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party party thereto and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

Except as set forth in such financial statements, as of the Closing Date, there are no liabilities of Holdings, the Administrative Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any kind, whether accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Such pro forma financial statements (A) have been prepared in good faith by Holdings based upon (i) in each case, the assumptions stated therein (which assumptions are believed by Holdings on the Closing Date to be reasonable) and (ii) the best information available to Holdings as of the date of delivery thereof, (B) in the case of the balance sheet, accurately reflect all adjustments required to be made to give effect to the Transactions, and (C) present fairly in all material respects the pro forma consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as of such date and for such period.

(d) (i) In the case of Credit Extensions made on the Closing Date, since December 31, 2013, there has not occurred any event, change, effect, development, circumstance or condition that, either individually or in the aggregate, has caused or would reasonably be expected to cause a Closing Date Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) there has been no Release or threatened Release or any handling, management, generation, treatment, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials by any Company or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, by any other person on, at, under or from any Real Property, Vessel or Chartered Vessel, or facility presently or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of the Companies or their predecessors in interest, or at any other location that has resulted in, or is reasonably likely to result in, liability or investigatory or remediation obligations by any of the Companies under Environmental Law or in an Environmental Claim against any of the Companies or otherwise related to any Real Property or the operation of any Vessel or Chartered Vessel;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Unrestricted Subsidiary that has been re-designated a Restricted Subsidiary may not be subsequently re-designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

The Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, guarantee, as primary obligors and not as sureties, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment and performance in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes, if any, held by each Lender of, the Borrowers, and all other Secured Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any Loan Party in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Borrowers or other Guarantors shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Section 7.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 7.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

152

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(d) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Secured Party as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be valid, perfected or to have the priority required under the Loan Documents; or

(e) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.09.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrowers or any Guarantor under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrowers and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrowers or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

Section 7.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article VII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 7.04 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 7.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any of the Borrowers or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness or other Obligation of any Loan Party to a Guarantor shall be subordinated to such Loan Party’s Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in the Intercompany Subordination Agreement.

153

Section 7.05 Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 7.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01.

Section 7.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article VII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

Section 7.07 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article VII is a continuing guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 7.08 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Legal Requirement affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the rights of subrogation and contribution established in Sections 7.04 and 7.10, respectively) that is valid and enforceable, not void or voidable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 7.09 Release of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) all of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred or (ii) any Subsidiary Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (in any such case, a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a person or persons (other than any Loan Party), such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer or designation, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 11.03) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document and, in the case of the sale of all of the Equity Interests of the Transferred Guarantor, the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents shall be released, and so long as the Administrative Borrower shall have previously provided the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent such certifications or documents as the Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, the Collateral Agent shall take, and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to take, such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this Section 7.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents.

154

Section 7.10 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 7.04. The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to any Secured Party, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 7.11 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under Section 7.01 in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 7.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7.11, or otherwise under Section 7.01, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 7.11 shall remain in full force and effect until a discharge of Guaranteed Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.11 constitute, and this Section 7.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders (or, (x) if a Revolver Covenant Event of Default occurs and is continuing and/or (y) if any other Event of Default has continued for a period of 180 days and (in the case of this clause (y)) the Required Lenders have not exercised their rights and remedies hereunder or under the Security Documents (and shall not be diligently pursuing such rights and remedies) at such time, in either case, at the request of the Majority Revolving Lenders only, and in each such case, without limiting Section 8.01(b), only with respect to the Revolving Facilities, any Letters of Credit and other Revolving Obligations) shall, by notice to the Administrative Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments; (ii) declare the Obligations then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Obligations so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding; and (iii) exercise (and/or direct the Collateral Agent to exercise) any and all of its (or the Collateral Agent’s) other rights and remedies under applicable Legal Requirements, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; and in any event with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Obligations then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding.

The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the other Secured Parties to a decision that may be made at the election of the Required Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit any Loan Party and do not give any Loan Party the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.23, the proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, in full or in part, together with any other sums then held by or distributed or paid to the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including as a result of any exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or thereunder), promptly by the Collateral Agent as follows:

ARTICLE X

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 10.01 Appointment. (a) Each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably designates and appoints (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to irrevocably designate and appoint) each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as an agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank irrevocably authorizes (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to irrevocably authorize) each Agent, in such capacity, through its agents or employees, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Bank Product Providers, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and any rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) Each Lender irrevocably appoints each other Lender, and the Collateral Agent irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent, as its agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting Liens (whether pursuant to Section 8-301(a)(2) of the UCC or otherwise), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in assets in which, in accordance with the UCC or any other applicable Legal Requirement, a security interest can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly following the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions. The Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge and authorize) that the Collateral Agent may act as the collateral agent for the Secured Parties.

Section 10.02 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Company or any Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank.

160

Section 10.03 Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01 or 11.02); provided, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability, if the Agent is not indemnified to its satisfaction, or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Insolvency Law or that may effect a foreclosure, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender under any Insolvency Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as any Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01 or 11.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof describing such Default is given to such Agent by any Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Bank, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may from time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other collateral related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Loan Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents.

Section 10.04 Reliance by Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent, or otherwise authenticated by a proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless each Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other advisors selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or advisors.

Section 10.05 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply, without limiting the foregoing to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent. The Agents shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

161

Section 10.06 Successor Agent. Each Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Borrower and without notice to the Bank Product Providers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, so long as no Event of Default shall have then occurred and be continuing, to appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent, which successor shall be a commercial banking institution or other finance company organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case, having combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided, that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution or other finance company that is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent.

Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article X, Section 11.03 and Sections 11.08 to 11.10 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

Section 10.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender, Bank Product Provider and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, conducted its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender further represents and warrants that it has reviewed each document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof (including any such terms and conditions set forth, or otherwise maintained, on the Platform with respect thereto). Each Lender (and each Bank Product Provider) and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 10.08 Name Agents. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Arrangers, the Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent hold their titles in name only, and that such titles confer no additional rights or obligations relative to those conferred on any Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder.

162

Section 10.09 Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers or the Guarantors and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers or the Guarantors to do so), ratably according to their respective outstanding Loans and Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.09 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have been terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such outstanding Loans and Commitments as in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, judgments, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, the Loans, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the Transactions or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent or Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY AGENT OR RELATED PERSON); provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, judgments, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted solely and directly from such Agent’s or Related Person’s, as the case may be, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.09 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of the Commitments.

Section 10.10 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable Legal Requirements, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

Section 10.11 Lender’s Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgements. (a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Companies in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Companies. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that no Agent or Related Person of any Agent has made any representation or warranty to it. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by an Agent to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility (either express or implied) to provide any Lender or the Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, including the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, that may come in to the possession of an Agent or any of its Related Persons.

163

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Closing Date.

Section 10.12 Security Documents and Guarantees.

(a) Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Guarantees, the Collateral and the Loan Documents; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Bank Product Obligations with respect to any Bank Product Agreement. Subject to Section 11.02, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 8.01 or 11.02) have otherwise consented or (ii) release any Guarantor from the Guarantees pursuant to Section 7.09 or with respect to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 8.01 or 11.02) have otherwise consented.

(b) Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantees, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders (or the Majority Revolving Lenders, as the case may be), for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

164

(c) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any Affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral subject to any disposition permitted by the Loan Documents, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any person subject to such disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Secured Obligations (other than Secured Obligations in respect of any Bank Product Agreement and contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (or have been Cash Collateralized), upon request of the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Secured Obligations in respect of Bank Product Agreements. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(d) The Agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 10.13 Administrative Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any Insolvency Proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

(b) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

165

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

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

Section 10.14 Ship Mortgage Trust. The Mortgage Trustee agrees and declares, and each of the other Secured Parties acknowledges, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.14, the Mortgage Trustee holds the Trust Property in trust for the Secured Parties absolutely. Each of the other Secured Parties agrees that the obligations, rights and benefits vested in the Mortgage Trustee shall be performed and exercised in accordance with this Section 10.14. For the avoidance of doubt, the Mortgage Trustee shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of this Agreement (including exculpatory and indemnification provisions) benefiting it in its capacity as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties. In addition, the Mortgage Trustee and any attorney, agent or delegate of the Mortgage Trustee may indemnify itself or himself out of the Trust Property against all liabilities, costs, fees, damages, charges, losses and expenses sustained or incurred by it or him in relation to the taking or holding of any of the Trust Property or in connection with the exercise or purported exercise of the rights, trusts, powers and discretions vested in the Mortgage Trustee or any other such person by or pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages or in respect of anything else done or omitted to be done in any way relating to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages.

In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. Nothing in this Section 11.01 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or as any such Agent shall require.

(c) To the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing from time to time, the Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents.

(d) Each Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the other Agents, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on a Platform. The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall any Agent have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender or any other person for damages of any kind, whether or not based on strict liability and including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or related to any Loan Party’s or any Agent’s transmissions of Communications through the Internet (including the Platform). Notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (a) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. Each Loan Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

168

(e) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

(f) Each Loan Party, each Lender and each Agent agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, store any Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary document retention procedures and policies.

(g) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Material Non-Public Information with respect to the Administrative Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws. In the event that any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) neither any Borrower nor the Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 11.02 Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 11.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

169

(b) Subject to Sections 2.16(c), 11.02(d) and 11.02(e), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders (other than with respect to any amendment or waiver contemplated in clause (b)(xi) below, which shall only require the consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders) or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent (in the case of any Security Document) and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided, that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase or extend the expiry date of any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any condition precedent, covenant or Default (or any definition used, respectively, therein) shall constitute an increase in or an extension of the expiry date of any Commitment of any Lender for purposes of this clause (i));

(ii) reduce the principal amount or premium, if any, of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than waiver of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or reduce any Fees payable hereunder, or change the form or currency of payment of any Obligation, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(iii) postpone or extend the maturity of any Loan, the required date of payment of any Reimbursement Obligation or any scheduled date of payment of or the installment otherwise due on the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other than a waiver of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (including, if directly affected, the Issuing Bank);

(iv) change Section 11.04(b) in a manner which further restricts assignments thereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (provided that any amendment that clarifies any ambiguity or defect in the definition or use of Disqualified Institutions shall require only the consent of the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties);

(v) change Section 2.14(b) or (c) or Section 9.01 in a manner that would alter the order of or the pro rata sharing of payments or setoffs required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(vi) change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Majority Revolving Lenders”, or any other provision of any Loan Document (including this Section 11.02) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be);

(vii) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their respective Guarantees (except as expressly provided in Article VII), or limit their liability in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender;

170

(viii) except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or any Security Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Secured Obligations entitled to the Liens of the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional Secured Obligations equally and ratably with the other Secured Obligations), in each case without the written consent of each Lender;

(ix) change the order of application of prepayments among Term Loans and Revolving Commitments under Section 2.10(d) or change the application of prepayments of Term Loans set forth in Section 2.10(d) in each case without the consent of the Required Lenders and Term Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) if (1) by the terms of such agreement the Commitments of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment, (2) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement, and (3) Section 2.16(b) is complied with.

171

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower shall have agreed in their sole and absolute discretion that there is an ambiguity, inconsistency, manifest error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof (it being understood that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to agree to any such amendment).

(b) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Agents, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each Related Person of each of the foregoing (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, all reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, one maritime counsel, local and foreign counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions for all Indemnitees (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest of another firm of counsel (and maritime counsel and one firm of local and foreign counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction) for such affected Indemnitee))) and any and all claims, damages, losses and liabilities, fees, fines, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and related expenses, including reasonable Advisors fees, charges and disbursements (collectively, “Claims”), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee, directly or indirectly, arising out of, relating to or in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder, (ii) any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials, on, at, under or from any property (A) owned, leased or operated by any Company or (B) formerly owned, leased or operated by any Company at the time of its ownership, lease or operations, (v) any Environmental Claim or threatened Environmental Claim against any of the Companies relating to any Real Property, Vessel, Chartered Vessel or other property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of the Companies or relating to the operations of any of the Companies, (vi) any non-compliance with, or violation of, applicable Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits by Companies or its businesses, operations, Real Property, Vessels, Chartered Vessels and other properties, (vii) the imposition of any environmental Lien encumbering Real Property or Vessels or Chartered Vessels owned, leased or operated by any Company, (viii) the consummation of the Transactions (including the syndication of the Loans and the Commitments) and the other transactions contemplated hereby or (ix) any actual or prospective claim, action, suit, litigation, inquiry, investigation, or other proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection with any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party or any of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates or shareholders or otherwise, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses or other Claims are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, (ii) a material breach by such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons or any of its or their respective obligations under the Loan Documents or (iii) any claims brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against the Administrative Agent or any other Agent in its capacity as such) not arising out of any act or omission by any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.

173

(c) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, that, without the prior written consent of the Agents and any affected Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Loan Parties will not enter into any settlement of a Claim in respect of the subject matter of Section 11.03(b) and asserted against an Indemnitee unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such Claim of all Indemnitees and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee.

(d) The provisions of this Section 11.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and any other Secured Obligations, the release of any Guarantor or of all or any portion of the Collateral, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 11.03 shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested.

(e) To the extent that the Loan Parties fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under clause (a) or (b) of this Section 11.03 in accordance with Section 10.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agents the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided, that the unreimbursed Claim was incurred by or asserted against any of the Agents, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes of this clause (e), a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Total Revolving Exposure, the principal amount of outstanding Term Loans and unused Term Commitments at the time.

(f) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, exemplary, consequential, or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, that such waiver of special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties to the extent such special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages are included in any third party claim with respect to which the applicable Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Section 11.03. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

174

(g) All amounts due under this Section 11.03 shall be payable no later than 10 Business Days after written demand (accompanied by an invoice or other reasonable documentation) therefor; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final and non-appealable judicial determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 11.03.

Section 11.04 Successors and Assigns. (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 Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that the Loan Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each Lender, which consent may be withheld in their respective sole discretion (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void ab initio). Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants to the extent expressly provided in clause (e) of this Section 11.04 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) Any Lender shall have the right at any time to assign to one or more assignees (other than any Company or any Affiliate thereof (except as provided in Section 2.22) or a natural person) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that:

(i) except in the case of (A) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (B) any assignment made in connection with the primary syndication by the Arrangers of the Commitments and the Loans or (C) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) in the case of Term Loans, $1,000,000 (or, in the case of any assignment made in connection with the primary syndication of the Term Commitments and Term Loans by Jefferies Finance LLC and its Affiliates, $100,000), and (y) in the case of Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, $2,500,000; provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amounts has been met;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement , except that this clause (ii) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(iii) 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 (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); provided, however, in the case of contemporaneous assignments by any Lender to one or more Approved Funds, only a single processing and recording fee shall be payable for such assignments;

175

(iv) the assignee, if it shall not then be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

(v) the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is an Eligible Assignee; and

(vi) each of (x) the Administrative Agent, (y) with respect to any assignment of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, and (z) (except (I) when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (II) in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) the Administrative Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that (i) the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof and (ii) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall not be required if such assignment is in respect of Term Loans that is made to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender required under this clause (b) may be withheld by such person in its sole discretion. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 11.04(d), 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 (provided, that any liability of the Borrowers to such assignee under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable thereunder by the Borrowers in the absence of such assignment, except to the extent any such amounts are attributable to a Change in Law occurring after the date of such assignment), 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 Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 11.03.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Administrative Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may 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 and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) 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 Section 11.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 11.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 11.04(d). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 11.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.04(e).

176

(e) Any Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of, or notice to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender or any other person to sell participations to any person (other than any Company or any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) is described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the proviso to Section 11.02(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.04(b). To the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees in writing to be subject to Section 2.14(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a “non-fiduciary” agent of the Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of its Participants, and the amount and terms of its participations (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender (and the Borrowers, to the extent that the Participant requests payment from the Borrowers) 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. 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, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or the greater payment results from a Change in Law after the date the participation was sold to the Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless such Participant agrees to comply with Section 2.15(f) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required in Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender).

(g) Any Lender 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 any central bank, and this Section 11.04 shall not 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 any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans or similar extensions of credit, such Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other person, collaterally assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and the Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities.

177

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to a Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof; provided further that nothing herein shall make the SPC a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, obligate the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to deal with such SPC directly, obligate the Borrowers or any other Loan Party in any manner to any greater extent than they were obligated to the Granting Lender, or increase costs or expenses of the Borrowers. The Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deal solely with, and obtain good discharge from, the Granting Lender and shall not be required to investigate or otherwise seek the consent or approval of any SPC, including for the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.04(h), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any Material Non-Public Information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance 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 Legal Requirement, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar laws domestic or foreign, federal, state, provincial or otherwise, based on or analogous or similar to the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

178

(j) Any assignor Lender of all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) or seller of a participation hereunder shall be entitled to rely conclusively on a representation of the assignee Lender or Participant in the relevant Assignment and Acceptance or participation agreement, as applicable, that such assignee or purchaser is not a Disqualified Institution. None of the Agents shall have any responsibility or liability for monitoring the list or identities of, or enforcing provisions relating to, Disqualified Institutions. Upon request by any Lender or prospective Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to disclose to such Lender or prospective Lender the identity of the Disqualified Institutions.

(k) (i) Without prejudice to the enforcement of any of the Agents’ or Lenders’ rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity or otherwise, the Revolving Lenders agree that at any time following (a) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Loan Party, (b) any acceleration of the Revolving Obligations or (c) each election by the Majority Revolving Lenders to assert any rights or withhold any consent under or in respect of any provision of Section 11.23 at any time and from time to time, the Revolving Lenders will offer the Term Lenders, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, the option to purchase the entire aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Obligations (including unfunded Revolving Commitments) at the Purchase Price without warranty or representation or recourse except as provided in Section 11.04(k)(iii), on a pro rata basis among the Revolving Lenders. The “Purchase Price” will equal the sum of (1) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Reimbursement Obligations included in the Obligations (including an amount in cash equal to 103% of the undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit), and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (but excluding any prepayment penalties or premiums) and (2) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and other amounts owed to the Revolving Lenders under the Loan Documents as of the date of purchase.

(ii) The Term Lenders (or any one or more of them) may in their sole and absolute discretion irrevocably accept such offer within 10 Business Days of the receipt thereof (it being understood that a failure to affirmatively accept such offer within such time frame shall be deemed to be a rejection of such offer). If the Term Lenders (or any one or more of them) accept such offer, it shall be exercised not more than 20 days, nor less than 10 days, after the receipt by the Revolving Lenders of the notice of election by such Term Lenders, subject to any required approval of any court or other Governmental Authority then in effect, if any. Such sale shall be pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to the Revolving Lenders and such Term Lenders, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party. If the all of the Term Lenders reject such offer (or any one or more of them does not so irrevocably accept such offer within the required timeframe), the Revolving Lenders shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 11.04(k). Each Revolving Lender will retain all rights to indemnification provided in the relevant Loan Documents for all claims and other amounts relating to periods prior to the purchase of the Revolving Obligations pursuant to this Section 11.04(k). The Purchase Price shall be remitted by wire transfer in federal funds to such bank account of the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders in New York, New York, as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to such Term Lenders for such purpose. Interest shall be calculated to but excluding the Business Day on which such purchase and sale shall occur if the amounts so paid by such Term Lenders that have exercised such option to the bank account designated by the Administrative Agent are received in such bank account prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day if the amounts so paid by such Term Lenders to the bank account designated by the Administrative Agent are received in such bank account later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day.

(iii) The Term Lenders agree that the purchase and sale of the Revolving Obligations under this Section 11.04(k) will be expressly made without recourse and without representation or warranty of any kind by the Revolving Lenders, except that the Revolving Lenders shall severally and not jointly represent and warrant to the Term Lenders that on the date of the purchase, immediately before giving effect to such purchase:

(a) the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Obligations, and the fees and expenses thereof owed to the respective Revolving Lenders, are as stated in any assignment agreement prepared in connection with the purchase and sale of the Revolving Obligations; and

(b) each Revolving Lender owns the Revolving Obligations purported to be owned by it free and clear of any Liens (other than participation interests not prohibited by this Agreement, in which case the Purchase Price will be appropriately adjusted so that the Term Lenders do not pay amounts represented by participation interests).

Section 11.05 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the reports, certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Obligation or any Letter of Credit is outstanding (or Cash Collateralized) and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Article X and Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 11.03, 11.05, 11.09, 11.10 and 11.12 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the payment of the Reimbursement Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Revolving Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 11.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent and/or the Arranger, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 11.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

180

Section 11.08 Right of Setoff; Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents held by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. None of any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders or Issuing Bank), or any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Insolvency Law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 11.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, and governed by, the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York , located in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Legal Requirements. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 11.09(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

181

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, in the manner provided for notices (other than facsimile or email) in Section 11.01. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints Holdings, with an office for service of process delivery on the date hereof at 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, and its successors (the “Process Agent”), as its agent to receive on behalf of such Loan Party and its property all writs, claims, process, and summonses in any action or proceeding brought against such Loan Party in the State of New York. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to any Loan Party in care of the Process Agent at the address specified above for the Process Agent, and such Loan Party irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. Failure by the Process Agent to give notice to the applicable Loan Party, or failure of the applicable Loan Party, to receive notice of such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service on the Process Agent or any such Loan Party, or of any judgment based thereon. Each Loan Party covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents that may be necessary to continue the designation of the Process Agent above in full force and effect, and to cause the Process Agent to act as such. Each Loan Party hereto further covenants and agrees to maintain at all times an agent with offices in New York City to act as its Process Agent. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 11.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.10.

Section 11.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

In addition, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders in connection with the administrative and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. For the purposes of this Section 11.12, “Information” shall mean all information received from Holdings and the Borrowers relating to Holdings and the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings and the Borrowers. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person accords to its own confidential information.

Section 11.13 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 11.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

183

Section 11.14 Assignment and Acceptance. Each Lender to become a party to this Agreement (other than the Administrative Agent and any other Lender that is a signatory hereto) shall do so by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance duly executed by such Lender, the Administrative Borrower (if the Administrative Borrower’s consent to such assignment is required hereunder) and the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.15 Obligations Absolute. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Loan Party;

(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Loan Party;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(d) any exchange, release or non-perfection or loss of priority of any Liens on any or all of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

(e) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Loan Document; or

(f) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Loan Parties.

Section 11.16 Waiver of Defenses; Absence of Fiduciary Duties. (a) Each of the Loan Parties hereby waives any and all suretyship defenses available to it as a Guarantor arising out of the joint and several nature of its respective duties and obligations hereunder (including any defense contained in Article VII).

(b) Each of the Loan Parties agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents and any communications in connection therewith, the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and each Lender and Agent, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of any Lender or any Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

184

(c) Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Section 11.17 Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties and Responsible Officers thereof, which information includes the name, address and taxpayer identification number of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party and Responsible Officers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 11.18 Bank Product Providers. Each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Loan Documents for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom the Administrative Agent is acting. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for such Bank Product Providers and, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, the applicable Bank Product Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Loan Documents; it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of each Bank Product Provider under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to the Collateral Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In addition, each Bank Product Provider, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, shall be automatically deemed to have agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to establish, maintain, relax, or release reserves in respect of the Bank Product Obligations and that if reserves are established there is no obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent to determine or insure whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not. In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to the Administrative Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by the Administrative Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Bank Products, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the relevant Bank Product Provider. In the absence of an updated certification, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the relevant Bank Product Provider is the amount last certified to the Administrative Agent by such Bank Product Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Bank Product Provider on account thereof). The Borrowers may obtain Bank Products from any Bank Product Provider, although the Borrowers are not required to do so. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that no Bank Product Provider has committed to provide any Bank Products and that the providing of Bank Products by any Bank Product Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank Product Provider. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Product shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors.

185

Section 11.19 EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, (I) ANY EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE EXCLUDED FROM (X) THE DEFINITION OF “SECURED OBLIGATIONS” (OR ANY EQUIVALENT DEFINITION) CONTAINED HEREIN OR IN ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT AND (Y) THE DEFINITION OF “GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS” (OR ANY EQUIVALENT DEFINITION) IN THE GUARANTEE OR IN ANY OTHER GUARANTEE OF THE GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS; (II) NO LIEN GRANTED PURSUANT TO ANY SECURITY DOCUMENT SHALL SECURE ANY EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS; AND (III) NO EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GUARANTEED PURSUANT TO THE GUARANTEE OR ANY OTHER GUARANTEE OF THE GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS.

Section 11.20 [Reserved].

Section 11.21 Judgment Currency. (a) The Loan Parties’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in Dollars or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Alternative Currency (each, the “Obligation Currency”), shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the respective Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the day on which the judgment is given (such day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, each Loan Party jointly and severally covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid 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 Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

186

(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section 11.21, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

Section 11.22 Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. Each of the Borrowers and Subsidairy Guarantors, in respect of itself, its Subsidiaries, its process agents, and its properties and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that such Loan Party, its Subsidiaries or any of its properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States, the Xxxxxxxx Islands or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Loans or any Loan Document or any other liability or obligation of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries related to or arising from the transactions contemplated by any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, such Loan Party, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United States, the Xxxxxxxx Islands or elsewhere. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party further agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section 11.22 shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.

Section 11.23 Revolving Credit Facility Priority. (a) EACH TERM LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 2.10(h) AND ARTICLE IX, THE REVOLVING OBLIGATIONS ARE ENTITLED TO DISTRIBUTIONS AND OTHER PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.10(h), ARITICLE IX AND THIS SECTION 11.23 (INCLUDING DISTRIBUTIONS AND OTHER PAYMENTS PURSUANT TO AN INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING) PRIOR TO ANY DISTRIBUTIONS OR OTHER PAYMENTS BEING APPLIED TO THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS (INCLUDING OBLIGATIONS IN RESPECT OF OUTSTANDING TERM LOANS). Each Term Lender hereby agrees that it will not provide the Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party post-petition financing (or support any third party providing any post-petition financing) unless upon the effectiveness of such post-petition financing, all outstanding Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) shall have been paid in full in cash and the Revolving Commitments and all Letters of Credit shall have been terminated (or such Letters of Credit shall have been Cash Collateralized on terms and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank) or the Majority Revolving Lenders shall have consented to such post-petition financing.

(b) Each Term Lender agrees that it will raise no objection to, oppose or contest (or join with or support any third party opposing, objecting to or contesting), a sale or other disposition of any Collateral free and clear of its Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code if the Majority Revolving Lenders have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets.

(c) The provisions of preceding clause (b) shall not prohibit Term Lenders from agreeing to or supporting a sale or other disposition of any Collateral free and clear of the Secured Parties’ Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code so long as all outstanding Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) are paid in full in cash and the Revolving Commitments and all Letters of Credit are terminated (or such Letters of Credit are Cash Collateralized on terms and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank) at the time of the consummation of such sale or other disposition unless the Majority Revolving Lenders otherwise agree to such sale or other disposition.

187

(d) Each Term Lender agrees that it will not support or agree to any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.14 or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in Section 2.10(h) and ARTICLE IX), after the exercise of remedies (including rights of setoff) provided for in Article VIII, any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations (whether as a result of a payment under a Guaranty, any realization on the Collateral, any setoff rights, any distribution or other payment in connection with any insolvency or liquidation proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) shall be applied as provided in ARTICLE IX, in any such case until the prior payment in full in cash of all Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) and the termination of all Letters of Credit (or the Cash Collateralization of such Letters of Credit on terms and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank). If any Secured Party collects or receives any amounts on account of the Secured Obligations to which it is not entitled under ARTICLE IX , such Secured Party shall hold the same in trust for the Secured Parties and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Secured Parties, to be applied in accordance with this clause (e).

(f) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.23, (i) this Section 11.23 is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable non-bankruptcy law and (ii) it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the maximum extent permitted by law the parties hereto agree that) the Revolving Exposure and Revolving Commitments (and the security therefor) constitute a separate and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the other Secured Obligations (and security therefor).

(C) This Intercompany Subordination Agreement is entered into pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and is delivered in connection therewith.

D-1

SECTION 1. Subordination.

(a) Each Subordinated Creditor and each Obligor agrees that the Subordinated Debt is and shall be subordinate, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior payment in full in cash of (i) all Secured Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of any such Obligor now or hereafter existing under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and the Bank Product Agreements (as defined in the Credit Agreement), including, without limitation, where applicable, such Obligor’s guarantee thereof (collectively, the “Senior Indebtedness”).

(b) A Subordinated Creditor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Subordinated Creditor ceases to be a Subsidiary of Holdings.

SECTION 2. Events of Subordination. (a) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of any Obligor or its debts, whether voluntary or involuntary, in any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization, receivership, relief or other similar case or proceeding under any Insolvency Law or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of any Obligor or otherwise, the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness before any Subordinated Creditor is entitled to receive any payment of any kind or character (whether in cash, property or securities) of all or any of the Subordinated Debt, and any payment or distribution of any kind or character (whether in cash, property or securities) that otherwise would be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Subordinated Debt in any such case, proceeding, assignment, marshalling or otherwise (including any payment that may be payable by reason of any other indebtedness of such Obligor being subordinated to payment of the Subordinated Debt) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Agent for the account of the holders of Senior Indebtedness for application (in the case of cash) to, or as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for, the payment or prepayment of the Senior Indebtedness until the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash.

(b) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, then no payment (including any payment that may be payable by reason of any other Indebtedness of any Obligor being subordinated to payment of the Subordinated Debt) or distribution of any kind or character (whether in cash, property or securities) shall be made by or on behalf of any Obligor for or on account of any Subordinated Debt, and no Subordinated Creditor shall take or receive from or on behalf of any Obligor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, including, without limitation, from or by way of collateral, payment of all or any of the Subordinated Debt, unless and until (x) all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash or (y) such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Agent.

(c) Except as otherwise set forth in Sections 2(a) and (b) above, any Obligor is permitted to pay, and any Subordinated Creditor is entitled to receive, any payment or prepayment of principal and interest on the Subordinated Debt in accordance with the terms thereof.

D-2

SECTION 3. In Furtherance of Subordination. Each Subordinated Creditor agrees as follows:

(a) If any proceeding referred to in Section 2(a) above is commenced by or against any Obligor,

(i) the Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of each Subordinated Creditor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in Section 2(a) and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including, without limitation, voting the Subordinated Debt or enforcing any security interest or other lien securing payment of the Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Agent and/or the Lenders hereunder; and

(ii) each Subordinated Creditor shall duly and promptly take such action as the Agent may reasonably request (A) to collect the Subordinated Debt for the account of the Agent and of the other Secured Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs or claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt, (B) to execute and deliver to the Agent such powers of attorney, assignments, or other instruments as the Agent may request in order to enable the Agent to enforce any and all claims with respect to, and any security interests and other liens securing payment of, the Subordinated Debt, and (C) to collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Subordinated Debt.

(b) All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Subordinated Debt which are received by each Subordinated Creditor contrary to the provisions of this Intercompany Subordination Agreement shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Agent and of the other Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such Subordinated Creditor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Agent for the account of the Agent and of the other Secured Parties in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to, or held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for, the payment or prepayment of the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Agreement.

(c) The Agent is hereby authorized to demand specific performance of this Intercompany Subordination Agreement, whether or not any Obligor shall have complied with any of the provisions hereof applicable to it, at any time when any applicable Subordinated Creditor shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Intercompany Subordination Agreement applicable to it. Each Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law, which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.

SECTION 4. Rights of Subrogation. Each Subordinated Creditor agrees that no payment or distribution to the Agent or the other Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of this Intercompany Subordination Agreement shall entitle such Subordinated Creditor to exercise any right of subrogation in respect thereof until the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash.

D-3

SECTION 5. Further Assurances. Each Subordinated Creditor and each Obligor will, at its expense and at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary, or that the Agent may reasonably request in writing, in order to protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.

SECTION 6. Agreements in Respect of Subordinated Debt. No Subordinated Creditor will, except as permitted under the Credit Agreement:

sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the Subordinated Debt unless such sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or disposition is made expressly subject to this Intercompany Subordination Agreement; or

(ii)

permit the terms of any of the Subordinated Debt to be changed in such a manner as to have a material adverse effect upon the rights or interests of the Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder.

SECTION 7. Agreement by the Obligors. Each Obligor agrees that it will not make any payment of any of the Subordinated Debt, or take any other action, in each case if such payment or other action would be in contravention of the provisions of this Intercompany Subordination Agreement.

SECTION 8. Obligations Hereunder Not Affected. All rights and interests of the Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of each Subordinated Creditor and each Obligor under this Intercompany Subordination Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(i)

any amendment, extension, renewal, compromise, discharge, acceleration or other change in the time for payment or the terms of the Senior Indebtedness or any part thereof;

(ii)

any taking, holding, exchange, enforcement, waiver, release, failure to perfect, sell or otherwise dispose of any security for payment of the Guaranty or any Senior Indebtedness;

(iii)

the application of security and directing the order or manner of sale thereof as the Agent and the other Secured Parties in their sole discretion may determine;

(iv)

the release or substitution of one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Senior Indebtedness;

D-4

(v)

the taking of, or failure to take any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of any Guarantor or which, but for this Section 8, might operate as a discharge of such Guarantor;

(vi)

any defense arising by reason of any disability, change in corporate existence or structure or other defense of any Obligor, any other Guarantor or a Subordinated Creditor, the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of such Obligor, any other Guarantor or a Subordinated Creditor;

(vii)

any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor’s or Subordinated Creditor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of any Obligor, any other Guarantor or any other subordinated creditor, as applicable;

(viii)

the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s or Subordinated Creditor’s liability hereunder;

(ix)

any right to proceed against any Obligor, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party, whatsoever;

(x)

any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party, and

(xi)

to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties.

This Intercompany Subordination Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent or any Lender or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 9. Waiver.

FORM OF

AUCTION PROCEDURES

This outline is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the Auction Procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 5, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among OVERSEAS SHIPHOLDING GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation, OSG INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (the “Administrative Borrower”), OIN Delaware LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (the “Co-Borrower” and together with the Administrative Borrower, the “Borrowers”) the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent (in such capacity, including any successor thereto, the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders, Jefferies Finance LLC, as collateral agent and mortgage trustee for the Secured Parties, and the other Agents party thereto. This is not intended to be a definitive list of all of the terms and conditions of an Auction (as defined below) and all such terms and conditions shall be set forth in the applicable Auction Procedures set for each Auction (the “Offer Documents”). None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates makes any recommendation pursuant to the Offer Documents as to whether or not any Lender should sell its Term Loans to the Borrowers pursuant to the Offer Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by participating in the Auction as a Lender) or the Borrowers should purchase any Term Loans from the Lenders pursuant to any Auction. Each Lender should make its own decision as to whether to sell any of its Term Loans and, if so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning this Auction and the Offer Documents. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Exhibit G have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

Summary. The Borrowers may make prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement (“Discounted Prepayments”) by conducting one or more auctions (each, an “Auction”) pursuant to the procedures described herein.

Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the Borrowers will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Lenders) of the Term Loans that will be the subject of the Auction by delivering to the Auction Manager a written notice in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Auction Manager (an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans the Borrowers are willing to purchase in the Auction (the “Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000, at which the Borrowers would be willing to purchase Term Loans in the Auction; and (iii) the date on which the Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due at the time provided in the Auction Notice (such time, the “Expiration Time”), as such date and time may be extended for a period not exceeding three Business Days upon notice by the Borrowers to the Auction Manager not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided, however, that only one extension per Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (x) the Borrowers withdraw such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrowers shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.

G-1

Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Lender holding Term Loans wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Auction Manager (the “Return Bid”, to be included in the Offer Documents) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 of Term Loans (the “Reply Price”) within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of Term Loans, in an amount not less than $1,000,000, that such Lender is willing to offer for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”); provided, that each Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the Term Loans held by such Lender at such time. Each Lender may only submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which shall not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an assignment and acceptance in the form included in the Offer Documents which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Auction Manager and the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) (the “Borrower Assignment and Acceptance”). The Borrowers will not purchase any Term Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price (as defined below).

Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for the Auction within the Discount Range for the Auction that will allow the Borrowers to complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Borrowers have received Qualifying Bids). The Borrowers shall purchase Term Loans from each Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All principal amount of Term Loans included in Qualifying Bids received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase price equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration. If a Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple component bids at different Reply Prices, then all Term Loans of such Lender offered in any such component bid that constitutes a Qualifying Bid with a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price shall also be purchased at a purchase price in cash equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration.

Proration Procedures. All Term Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component bid thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids equal to the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase price equal to the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction equal to the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans purchased below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Borrowers shall purchase the Term Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount up to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, no Return Bids (or any component thereof) will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.

G-2

Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price no later than the next Business Day after the date that the Return Bids were due and shall thereafter notify the Borrowers and respective Lenders thereof. The Auction Manager will insert the amount of Term Loans to be assigned and the applicable settlement date determined by the Auction Manager in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) onto each applicable Borrower Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon written request of the submitting Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return the Borrower Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid.

Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrowers may withdraw an Auction by written notice to the Auction Manager no later than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time so long as no Qualifying Bids have been received by the Auction Manager at or prior to the time the Auction Manager receives such written notice from either Borrower. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled; provided that a Lender may modify a Return Bid at any time prior to the Expiration Time solely to reduce the Reply Price included in such Return Bid. However, an Auction shall become void if either of the Borrowers fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions to the purchase of Term Loans set forth in Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement. The purchase price for each Discounted Prepayment shall be paid in cash by the Borrowers directly to the assigning Lenders on a settlement date as determined by agreement of the Auction Manager and the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) (which shall be no later than 10 Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Borrowers shall execute each applicable Borrower Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid.

All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of an Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), and the Auction Manager’s determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit G. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer Document, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit G.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, or any of their Affiliates contained in the Offer Documents or otherwise or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information.

Immediately upon the consummation of a Discounted Prepayment, the Term Loans subject to such Discounted Prepayment and all rights and obligations as a Lender related to such Term Loans shall for all purposes (including under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise) be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrowers shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender under the Credit Agreement or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such Discounted Prepayment.

This Exhibit G shall not require the Borrowers to initiate any Auction.

If any Pledgor shall at any time bring a Commercial Tort Claim having a value reasonably believed by the Pledgors to be in excess of $2,500,000 individually, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 45 days after bringing such Commercial Tort Claim or such longer time as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

The Pledgors shall cause each Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) of the Administrative Borrower that, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement within 30 days after the date on which it was acquired or created and (ii) a Perfection Certificate within 30 days after the date on which it was acquired or created and, in each case, upon such execution and delivery, such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Pledgor as a party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 3.6 Supplements; Further Assurances. Subject to Section 2.2(c), each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute, endorse, acknowledge, file, refile and deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional assignments, agreements, supplements, powers, instruments and reports as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary, wherever required by applicable Legal Requirements, in order to perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof and/or to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in addition to the rights and remedies available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Article VIII hereof and in the other Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or reasonably expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

SECTION 4.1 Title. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns or has rights and, as to Pledged Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will own or have rights in, each item of Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. Such Pledgor has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file a financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Pledged Collateral on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or as are permitted by the Credit Agreement or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 8(a) to the Perfection Certificate.

SECTION 4.2 Validity of Security Interest. The security interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Pledged Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and (b) subject to the filings described on Schedule 6 and Schedule 13 of the Perfection Certificate, a valid, enforceable, perfected First Priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all the Pledged Collateral to the extent a security interest in such Pledged Collateral can be perfected pursuant to such filings, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a valid, enforceable, perfected (subject to the limitations herein and the other Loan Documents), continuing First Priority security interest therein, subject only to Permitted Liens, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

SECTION 4.3 Defense of Claims. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof required under the Loan Documents against all claims and demands of all persons (except with respect to Permitted Liens), at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.

J-1-12

SECTION 4.4 Other Financing Statements. No Pledgor has filed, nor authorized any third party to file any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral other than financing statements and other statements and instruments relating to Permitted Liens. So long as any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid and unperformed (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made and that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof), no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.5 Chief Executive Office; Change of Name; Jurisdiction of Organization, etc. Such Pledgor shall, (i) unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 30 days’ prior written notice (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion), not change its name, identity, legal structure (whether by merger, consolidation, change in corporate form or otherwise), type of organization or jurisdiction of organization, place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or mailing address or organizational identification number if it has one and (ii) take all actions necessary or advisable to maintain the continuous validity, perfection and the same or better priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral granted or intended to be granted hereunder (which may include, upon the request of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion, in the case of any merger or other change in organizational structure, the delivery to the Collateral Agent of a written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate) upon completion of such merger or other change in organizational structure, which confirms the grant of the security interest under this Agreement). If such Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall forthwith notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number. The Collateral Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements (or correlative foreign documents or filings in respect of Specified Non-U.S. OIN Collateral) of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in this Section 4.5. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a valid, enforceable, perfected security interest with the priority required hereunder in such Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor.

SECTION 4.6 Corporate Names; Prior Transactions. Except as set forth in Schedules 1(a), (b) and (c) to the Perfection Certificate, such Pledgor has not, during the past five years, had or used any other corporate or organizational name or been a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any person, or acquired any material portion of its property or assets out of the ordinary course of business.

SECTION 4.7 Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Initial Pledged Shares of wholly-owned Subsidiaries of any Pledgor have been, and to the extent any Pledged Shares are hereafter issued, such Pledged Shares will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. All of the Initial Pledged Interests have been fully paid for, and there is no amount or other obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Initial Pledged Interests or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests.

J-1-13

SECTION 4.8 Consents, etc. No consent of any party (including equityholders or creditors of such Pledgor) and no consent, authorization, approval, license or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or other person (except for such consents by the Maritime Administration and the Coast Guard as may be required with respect to the Collateral Vessels) is required for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of (i) the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement or (ii) the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and reasonably determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor agrees to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

SECTION 4.9 Pledged Collateral. All information set forth herein, including the schedules annexed hereto, and all information contained in any documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party, including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection with this Agreement, in each case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is accurate and complete in all material respects when so delivered.

SECTION 4.10 Insurance. In the event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are paid after the Collateral Agent has exercised its right to foreclose during the existence of an Event of Default, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be paid to the Collateral Agent to satisfy any deficiency remaining after such foreclosure.

SECTION 4.11 Payment of Taxes; Compliance with Legal Requirements; Contesting Liens; Charges. Each Pledgor may at its own expense contest the validity, amount or applicability of any Charges so long as the contest thereof shall be conducted in accordance with, and permitted pursuant to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time payment or performance of any Charge contested by such Pledgor pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall become necessary to prevent (i) the imposition of a Charge that is not otherwise a Permitted Lien or (ii) the forfeiture or sale of, any Collateral subject to such Charge, such Pledgor shall pay or perform the same in sufficient time to prevent such Charge, forfeiture or sale.

SECTION 4.12 Access to Pledged Collateral, Books and Records; Other Information. Subject to Section 5.07 of the Credit Agreement, each Pledgor shall permit representatives of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent upon two Business Day’s advance notice to visit and inspect any of its properties during normal business hours (and with respect solely to inspection of Vessels, without interrupting the normal commercial operations of such Vessel) and not more than twice during any fiscal year of the Administrative Borrower (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), including to conduct any environmental assessments, sampling, testing or monitoring of any Mortgaged Property or Collateral Vessel, or assets and examine and make abstracts from any of its books and records (including insurance policies), in each case, at any reasonable time and upon reasonable notice. Nothing in this Section 4.12, however, shall limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, or the obligations of the Loan Parties, under Sections 5.07 and 5.13 of the Credit Agreement.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to any notice requirement in Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement the Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it under the other Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, the following remedies:

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor;

J-1-18

(iii) Demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than one Business Day after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent;

(iv) Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

(v) Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be reasonably necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 8.1(v) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation;

(vi) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral;

(vii) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article IX hereof;

(viii) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and

The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Pledged Collateral payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

J-1-19

SECTION 8.2 Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Pledged Collateral shall be required by any Legal Requirement, 10 days prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters unless the Pledged Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 8.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling.

(i) Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice of judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirement, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (a) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article VIII except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral made in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor.

(ii) Each Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Credit Extensions, Pledged Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements except as may otherwise be expressly required herein or in the Credit Agreement.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Pledged Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements.

SECTION 8.4 Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To the extent that applicable Legal Requirements impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Pledged Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Pledged Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other Legal Requirements, to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties for the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Pledged Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Pledged Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Pledged Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Pledged Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Pledged Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Pledged Collateral, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral. The Pledgors acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 8.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Legal Requirements of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Pledged Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8.4. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.4 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Legal Requirements in the absence of this Section 8.4.

SECTION 8.5 Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral.

(i) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of a Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such restrictions and that, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

J-1-21

(ii) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state or foreign securities’ laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely as a result of such restrictions and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state or foreign securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(iii) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral and Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(iv) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

SECTION 8.6 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(i) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable Legal Requirements, in equity or otherwise.

(ii) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

J-1-22

SECTION 8.7 Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under this Article VIII at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent licensable, exercisable solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, an irrevocable non-exclusive worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Pledgor) to use, assign, license or otherwise dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any License that by its terms is prohibited from being so licensed to the extent constituting Excluded Collateral), wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, by written notice to the relevant Pledgor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) declare the entire right, title and interest of such Pledgor in and to the Intellectual Property Collateral, vested in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in which event such right, title and interest shall immediately vest, in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in Section 10.2 to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and record said absolute assignment with the applicable agency or registrar; (ii) take and use or sell or license the Intellectual Property Collateral along with any goodwill of such Pledgor’s business symbolized by any Trademarks that are included in such Intellectual Property; (iii) direct such Pledgor to refrain, in which event such Pledgor shall refrain, from licensing or disposing any Intellectual Property Collateral in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly; and (iv) in the event that the Collateral Agent takes any of the actions described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), the Collateral Agent may direct such Pledgor to refrain, in which event such Pledgor shall refrain, from using the Intellectual Property Collateral in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly. Such Pledgor shall execute such further documents that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to further confirm this and to transfer ownership of the Intellectual Property Collateral and registrations and any pending applications in the United States Copyright Office, United States Patent and Trademark Office, equivalent office in a state of the United States or a foreign jurisdiction or applicable Domain Name registrar to the Collateral Agent.

ARTICLE IX

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

SECTION 9.1 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 10.1 Concerning Collateral Agent.

(i) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Pledged Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent.

J-1-23

(ii) Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests; provided that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall have responsibility for (x) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters (y) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral or for any delay in doing so or (z) failing to take any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(iv) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3, if any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the provisions hereof shall control.

SECTION 10.2 Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges as required herein, (iii) make repairs, or (iv) discharge Liens or pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) and such failure constitutes an Event of Default that is continuing, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.11. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 10.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or reasonably advisable. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

J-1-24

SECTION 10.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 10.4 Termination; Release. (a) This Agreement shall terminate and the Pledged Collateral shall be automatically released from the Lien of this Agreement when the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired or have been Cash Collateralized and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made and that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof). Upon termination hereof, the security interests granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the applicable Pledgor or to such other person as may be entitled thereto pursuant to any Order or other applicable Legal Requirement. Upon termination hereof or any release of Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall promptly, upon the written request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgors, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty of any kind (either express or implied) by the Collateral Agent (except that the Collateral Agent has not assigned or otherwise transferred its security interest in the Pledged Collateral), such of the Pledged Collateral to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession or control of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, with such endorsements or proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.

(b) If any of the Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Pledgor (other than to another Pledgor) in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the lien created pursuant to this Agreement in such Collateral shall be released, and the Collateral Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Pledgor, shall promptly execute and deliver to such Pledgor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable and in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and take such further actions for the release of such Collateral (not including Proceeds thereof) from the security interests created hereby; provided that the applicable Pledgor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period of time acceptable to the Collateral Agent) prior to the date of the proposed release, a certificate of a Responsible Officer of such Pledgor with request for release identifying the relevant Collateral and certifying that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

J-1-25

SECTION 10.5 Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.

Until paid, all amounts due and payable under this Agreement (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made after the payment in full of all other Secured Obligations) shall constitute Secured Obligations and shall bear interest, whether before or after judgment, at the Default Rate.

SECTION 10.15 Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

EXHIBIT 1

[Form of]

This Copyright Security Agreement (this “Copyright Security Agreement”), dated as of [_________________], by [_________], a [________][________] (the “Pledgor”) and Jefferies Finance LLC, in its capacity as Collateral Agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 5, 2014, among Holdings, the Administrative Borrower, the Co-Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Collateral Agent and the lending institutions and other entities from time to time party thereto (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Pledgor is a party to a Security Agreement of even date with the Credit Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to which the Pledgor is required to execute and deliver this Copyright Security Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, to enter into the Credit Agreement, the Pledgor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent as follows:

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Security Agreement and used herein have the meaning given to them in the Security Agreement.

SECTION 2. Grant of Security Interest in Copyright Collateral. The Pledgor hereby pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to the following (collectively, the “Copyright Collateral”):

(a)

Copyrights of such Pledgor listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto;

(b)

all Proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (other than Excluded Collateral); and

(c)

all causes of action arising prior to or after the date hereof for infringement of any such Copyrights or unfair competition regarding the same.

SECTION 3. Security Agreement. The security interest granted pursuant to this Copyright Security Agreement is granted in conjunction with the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement, and the Pledgor hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to the security interest in the Copyright Collateral made and granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth herein.

The security interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Pledged Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and (b) subject to the deliveries required by Section 3.1 herein or the filings described in Schedule 6 of the Perfection Certificate, a valid, enforceable, perfected First Priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all the Pledged Collateral to the extent a security interest in such Pledged Collateral can be perfected pursuant to such deliveries or filings, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a valid, enforceable, perfected (subject to the limitations herein and the other Loan Documents), continuing First Priority security interest therein, subject only to Permitted Liens, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

SECTION 4.3 Defense of Claims. The Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof required under the Loan Documents against all claims and demands of all persons (except with respect to Permitted Liens), at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.

J-2-6

SECTION 4.4 Other Financing Statements. The Pledgor has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral other than financing statements and other statements and instruments relating to Permitted Liens. So long as any of the Secured Obligations remain unpaid and unperformed (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made and that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof), the Pledgor shall not execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.5 Chief Executive Office; Change of Name; Jurisdiction of Organization, etc. The Pledgor shall, (i) unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than 30 days’ prior written notice (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion), not change its name, identity, legal structure (whether by merger, consolidation, change in corporate form or otherwise), type of organization or jurisdiction of organization, place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or mailing address or organizational identification number if it has one and (ii) take all actions necessary or advisable to maintain the continuous validity, perfection and the same or better priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral granted or intended to be granted hereunder (which may include, upon the request of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion, in the case of any merger or other change in organizational structure, the delivery to the Collateral Agent of a written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate) upon completion of such merger or other change in organizational structure, which confirms the grant of the security interest under this Agreement). If the Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, the Pledgor shall forthwith notify the Collateral Agent of such organizational identification number. The Collateral Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgor need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in this Section 4.5. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a valid, enforceable, perfected security interest with the priority required hereunder in the Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by the Pledgor.

SECTION 4.6 Corporate Names; Prior Transactions. Except as set forth in Schedules 1(a), (b) and (c) to the Perfection Certificate, the Pledgor has not, during the past five years, had or used any other corporate or organizational name or been a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any person, or acquired any material portion of its property or assets out of the ordinary course of business.

SECTION 4.7 Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Initial Pledged Shares have been, and to the extent any Pledged Shares are hereafter issued, such Pledged Shares will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.

SECTION 4.8 Consents, etc. No consent of any party (including equityholders or creditors of the Pledgor) and no consent, authorization, approval, license or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or other person is required for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of (i) the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement or (ii) the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and reasonably determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, the Pledgor agrees to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

J-2-7

SECTION 4.10 Payment of Taxes; Compliance with Legal Requirements; Contesting Liens; Charges. The Pledgor may at its own expense contest the validity, amount or applicability of any Charges so long as the contest thereof shall be conducted in accordance with, and permitted pursuant to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time payment or performance of any Charge contested by the Pledgor pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement shall become necessary to prevent (i) the imposition of a Charge that is not otherwise a Permitted Lien or (ii) the forfeiture or sale of, any Collateral subject to such Charge, the Pledgor shall pay or perform the same in sufficient time to prevent such Charge, forfeiture or sale.

SECTION 4.11 Access to Pledged Collateral, Books and Records; Other Information. Subject to Section 5.07 of the Credit Agreement, the Pledgor shall permit representatives of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent upon two Business Day’s advance notice to visit and inspect any of its properties during normal business hours and not more than twice during any fiscal year of the Pledgor (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), including to examine and make abstracts from any of its books and records, in each case, at any reasonable time and upon reasonable notice. Nothing in this Section 4.11, however, shall limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, or the obligations of the Loan Parties, under Sections 5.07 and 5.13 of the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE V

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING SECURITIES COLLATERAL

SECTION 5.1 Pledge of Additional Securities Collateral. The Pledgor shall, upon obtaining any Pledged Shares or Intercompany Notes, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and promptly (and in any event within 30 days thereafter or such later time as may be extended by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) deliver to the Collateral Agent the certificates and other documents required under Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 in respect of the additional Pledged Shares or Intercompany Notes that are to be pledged pursuant to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.2 Voting Rights; Distributions; etc..

(i) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(A) The Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms or purposes hereof, the other Loan Documents or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations; provided, however, that the Pledgor shall not in any event exercise such rights in any manner that will materially and adversely affect the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent as secured party hereunder; and

J-2-8

(B) The Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any and all such Distributions consisting of rights or interests in the form of Pledged Shares or Intercompany Notes shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days after receipt thereof or such later time as may be extended by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) be delivered to the Collateral Agent to hold as Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by the Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of the Pledgor and be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary or reasonably requested endorsement).

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default:

(A) All rights of the Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(i)(A) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights until the applicable Event of Default is no longer continuing, in which case the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Section 5.2(ii)(A) shall cease to be effective, subject to revesting in the event of a subsequent Event of Default that is continuing; and

(B) All rights of the Pledgor to receive Distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(i)(B) without further action shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such Distributions until the applicable Event of Default is no longer continuing, in which case the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Section 5.2(ii)(B) shall cease to be effective, subject to revesting in the event of a subsequent Event of Default that is continuing.

(iii) The Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(ii)(A) and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under Section 5.2(ii)(B).

(iv) All Distributions that are received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of Section 5.2(ii)(B) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from the other funds of the Pledgor and shall immediately be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary or reasonably requested endorsement).

ARTICLE VI

REMEDIES

SECTION 6.1 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to any notice requirement in Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it under the other Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, the following remedies:

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from the Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon the Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of the Pledgor;

J-2-9

(ii) Demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to the Pledgor, the Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than one Business Day after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent;

(iii) Sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, or direct the Pledgor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment or liquidation;

(iv) Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing the Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event the Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be reasonably necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. The Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 6.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to decree requiring specific performance by the Pledgor of such obligation;

(v) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article VII hereof;

(vi) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and

(vii) All the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Pledged Collateral), and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 6.2, sell, assign or transfer the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Pledged Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold or assigned at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Pledged Collateral payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold or assigned absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree.

J-2-10

SECTION 6.2 Notice of Sale. The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Pledged Collateral shall be required by any Legal Requirement, 10 days prior notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters unless the Pledged Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No notification need be given to the Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

SECTION 6.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling.

(i) The Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice of judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which the Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirement, and the Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements (a) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article VI except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral made in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against the Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under the Pledgor.

(ii) The Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Credit Extensions, Pledged Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements except as may otherwise be expressly required herein or in the Credit Agreement.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Pledged Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements.

J-2-11

SECTION 6.4 Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To the extent that applicable Legal Requirements impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Pledged Collateral for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Pledged Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other Legal Requirements, to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties for the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Pledged Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Pledged Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Pledged Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Pledged Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Pledged Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Pledged Collateral, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral. The Pledgor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 6.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Legal Requirements of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Pledged Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 6.4. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 6.4 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Legal Requirements in the absence of this Section 6.4.

SECTION 6.5 Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral.

(i) The Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of a Governmental Authority. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such restrictions and that, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

(ii) The Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state or foreign securities’ laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely as a result of such restrictions and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state or foreign securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

J-2-12

(iii) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral, upon written request, the Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(iv) The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.5 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants.

SECTION 6.6 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(ii) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgor, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

ARTICLE VII

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

SECTION 7.1 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

J-2-13

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 8.1 Concerning Collateral Agent.

J-2-14

SECTION 8.2 Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If the Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including the Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay Charges as required herein, or (ii) discharge Liens or pay or perform any obligations of the Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) and such failure constitutes an Event of Default that is continuing, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other obligation which the Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which the Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.10. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgor in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 8.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. The Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Pledgor and in the name of the Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or reasonably advisable. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. The Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

SECTION 8.3 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgor, its respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of the Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 8.4 Termination; Release.

(i) This Agreement shall terminate and the Pledged Collateral shall be automatically released from the Lien of this Agreement when the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired or have been Cash Collateralized and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made and that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof). Upon termination hereof, the security interests granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the Pledgor or to such other person as may be entitled thereto pursuant to any Order or other applicable Legal Requirement. Upon termination hereof or any release of Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall promptly, upon the written request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgor, assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty of any kind (either express or implied) by the Collateral Agent (except that the Collateral Agent has not assigned or otherwise transferred its security interest in the Pledged Collateral), such of the Pledged Collateral to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession or control of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, with such endorsements or proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.

J-2-15

(ii) If any of the Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Pledgor (other than to another Loan Party) in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the lien created pursuant to this Agreement in such Collateral shall be released, and the Collateral Agent, at the request and sole expense of the Pledgor, shall promptly execute and deliver to the Pledgor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable and in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and take such further actions for the release of such Collateral (not including Proceeds thereof) from the security interests created hereby; provided that the Pledgor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period of time acceptable to the Collateral Agent) prior to the date of the proposed release, a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Pledgor with request for release identifying the relevant Collateral and certifying that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.5 Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by the Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by the Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on the Pledgor in any case shall entitle the Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 8.6 Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to the Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Administrative Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 8.6.

SECTION 8.7 Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

QUIET ENJOYMENT AGREEMENT

QUIET ENJOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [DATE], between [CHARTERER] (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Charterer”), and [COLLATERAL AGENT], acting as agent and mortgage trustee on behalf of the lenders under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Mortgagee”).

Recitals

Reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of August 5, 2014, among the Mortgagee, the Owner and the other parties thereto (as such agreement may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

[SHIPOWNER] (the “Owner”) is the owner of the Xxxxxxxx Islands registered [VESSEL TYPE] named [VESSEL NAME], IMO Number [●] (the “Vessel”).

As security for the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Pledgors under the Credit Agreement and as permitted under the Charter (as defined below), the Owner executed and delivered to the Mortgagee, as Mortgage Trustee, for the benefit of the Lenders, a first preferred ship mortgage, dated [●] (the “Vessel Mortgage”) covering the whole of the Vessel, which is subject to the [TYPE OF CHARTER] dated [●] pursuant to which the Vessel was chartered to the Charterer (the “Charter”). A copy of the Charter is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”.

The parties wish to provide for the quiet enjoyment of the Vessel by the Charterer.

The parties agree as follows:

The Charterer hereby represents and warrants to the Mortgagee as of the date hereof that:

1.1

all necessary corporate action has been taken by the Charterer to authorize, and all necessary consents and approvals have been obtained to permit, the Charterer to enter into this Agreement; and

1.2

this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Charterer, enforceable against the Charterer in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that such enforceability may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights and by general principles of equity.

The Mortgagee hereby represents and warrants to the Charterer as of the date hereof that:

2.1

the Mortgagee is authorized to enter into this Agreement; and

2.2

this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Mortgagee, enforceable against the Mortgagee in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that such enforceability may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights and by general principles of equity.

Charterer hereby agrees that:

O-1

3.1

[this Agreement is the “[agreement]” referred to in Clause [●] of the Charter;]¹

3.2

it will duly perform all of its obligations under the Charter in accordance with the Charter and will make all payments of charter hire due and to become due under, and in accordance with, the Charter, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim for any reason whatsoever, except as provided in the Charter; and

3.3

any lien it may have against the Vessel shall be fully subordinate to any lien of the Mortgagee as mortgagee against the Vessel.

The Mortgagee hereby agrees that the exercise by the Mortgagee of its remedies with respect to the Vessel under the Credit Agreement and pursuant to the terms of the Vessel Mortgage shall be made consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

So long as the Charter remains in effect and no default thereunder by the Charterer has occurred and is continuing (a “Charterer Default”), the Mortgagee acknowledges and agrees that the Mortgagee shall not exercise its remedies with respect to the Vessel pursuant to the terms of the Vessel Mortgage in a manner that disturbs or interferes with the quiet and peaceful use and enjoyment of the Vessel by the Charterer and any permitted sub-charterer, provided that, even when no Charterer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagee shall remain free to exercise its powers of extra-judicial sale in relation to the Vessel contained in the Vessel Mortgage and any sale of the Vessel pursuant to any such power shall not terminate the Charter, unless the consent of the Charterer to a change in the technical management of the Vessel, not to be unreasonably withheld, shall not be given. In the event of such extra-judicial sale and so long as no Charterer Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

5.1

the Mortgagee shall conduct and complete such sale in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with the Charterer’s rights under the Charter and this Agreement; and

5.2

the Mortgagee shall require that the purchaser accede to the Charter and agree to comply with the Owner’s obligations thereunder as though it were named in the Charter in place of the Owner, until the expiration of the Charter according to its terms.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the [LAW OF APPLICABLE JURISDICTION].

(i) Declare all the then unpaid Indebtedness hereby secured to be due and payable immediately, and upon such declaration, the same shall become and be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that no declaration shall be required if an event of default shall have occurred by reason of a default under Section 8.01(g) or (h) of the Credit Agreement, then and in such case, the Indebtedness hereby secured shall become immediately due and payable on the occurrence of such event of default without any notice or demand;

(ii) Exercise all of the rights and remedies in foreclosure and otherwise given to a mortgagee by the provisions of the laws of the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands or of any other jurisdiction where the Vessel may be found;

(iv) Take and enter into possession of the Vessel, at any time, wherever the same may be, without legal process and without being responsible for loss or damage and the Shipowner or other person in possession forthwith upon demand of the Mortgagee shall surrender to the Mortgagee possession of the Vessel;

(v) Without being responsible for loss or damage, the Mortgagee may hold, lay up, lease, charter, operate or otherwise use the Vessel for such time and upon such terms as it may deem to be for its best advantage, and demand, collect and retain all hire, freights, earnings, issues, revenues, income, profits, return premiums, salvage awards or recoveries, recoveries in general average, and all other sums due or to become due in respect of such Vessel or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from such use of the Vessel and charging upon all receipts from the use of the Vessel or from the sale thereof by court proceedings or pursuant to subsection (vi) next following, all costs, expenses, charges, damages or losses by reason of such use; and if at any time the Mortgagee shall avail itself of the right herein given it to take the Vessel, the Mortgagee shall have the right to dock the Vessel, for a reasonable time at any dock, pier or other premises of the Shipowner without charge, or to dock her at any other place at the cost and expense of the Shipowner;

(vi) Without being responsible for loss or damage, the Mortgagee may sell the Vessel upon such terms and conditions as the Mortgagee shall seem best, free from any claim of or by the Shipowner, at public or private sale, by sealed bids or otherwise, by delivering notice of such sale, whether public or private, addressed to the Shipowner at its last known address and to any other record mortgagee, twenty (20) calendar days prior to the date fixed for entering into the contract of sale and by first publishing notice of any such public sale for ten (10) consecutive days, in daily newspapers of general circulation published in the City of New York, State of New York; in the event that the Vessel shall be offered for sale by private sale, no newspaper publication of notice shall be required, nor notice of adjournment of sale; sale may be held at such place and at such time as the Mortgagee by notice may have specified, or may be adjourned by the Mortgagee from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale, and without further notice or publication the Mortgagee may make any such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned; and any sale may be conducted without bringing the Vessel to the place designated for such sale and in such manner as the Mortgagee may deem to be for its best advantage, and the Mortgagee may become the purchaser at any sale.

No purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale, or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In case of any such sale, the Mortgagee, if it is the purchaser, shall be entitled, for the purpose of making settlement or payment for the property purchased, to use and apply the Indebtedness hereby secured in order that there may be credited against the amount remaining due and unpaid thereon the sums payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the Mortgagee after allowing for the costs and expense of sale and other charges; and thereupon such purchaser shall be credited, on account of such purchase price, with the net proceeds that shall have been so credited upon the Indebtedness hereby secured. At any such sale, the Mortgagee may bid for and purchase such property and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

Section 3. Power of Attorney-Sale. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner, upon the happening of any event of default, to execute and deliver to any purchaser aforesaid, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, in the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Vessel so sold. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable. In the event of any sale of the Vessel, under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Vessel as the Mortgagee may direct or approve.

Section 4. Power of Attorney-Collection. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner, upon the happening of any event of default, in the name of the Shipowner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and xxx for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freight, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the happening of any event of default as defined in Section 1 of Article III hereof in respect of the Vessel, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable.

Section 5. Delivery of Vessel. Whenever any right to enter and take possession the Vessel accrues to the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee may require the Shipowner to deliver, and the Shipowner shall on such demand, at its own cost and expense, deliver the Vessel, as demanded. If any legal proceedings shall be taken to enforce any right under this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver of the Vessel and the freights, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits due or to become due arising from the operation thereof.

Section 6. Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them, upon the happening of any event of default, to appear in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any alleged Lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such Lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the Lien of this Mortgage in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and in addition to all other powers or remedies now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any other agreements, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults. If at any time after an event of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior to any enforcement or foreclosure proceedings the Shipowner offers completely to cure all events of default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee consequent on such events of default, with interest at the interest rate set forth in Section 2.06(c) of the Credit Agreement, then the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, accept such offer and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action, if taken, shall not affect any subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

First: To the payment of all costs and expenses (together with interest thereon as set forth in Section 12 of Article II) of the Mortgagee, including the reasonable compensation of its agents and attorneys, by reason of any sale, retaking, management or operation of the Vessel and all other sums payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by reason of any expenses or liabilities incurred or advances made by it for the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security or of any of its rights hereunder or in the pursuit of any remedy hereby conferred; and at the option of the Mortgagee to provide for adequate indemnity against Liens claiming priority over or equality with the Lien of this Mortgage; and

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, Etc. (a) If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that this Mortgage or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of this Mortgage or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage.

In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.
