Section 2.1 Commitments to Lend; Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender agrees to make loans to Borrower (herein called such Lender’s “Loans”) upon Borrower’s request from time to time during the Commitment Period, provided that (a) subject to Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, Loans of the same Type shall be made by Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages and as part of the same Borrowing, and (b) after giving effect to such Loans, the Facility Usage does not exceed the Availability at such time. The aggregate amount of all Loans (other than Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10(b)) in any Borrowing must be greater than or equal to (a) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $1,000,000 or any higher integral multiple of $100,000, (b) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $500,000 or any higher integral multiple of $100,000, or (c) must equal the remaining Unused Availability. Borrower may have no more than four (4) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any time. Interest on each Loan shall accrue and be due and payable as provided herein. Each Loan shall be due and payable as provided herein, and shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Subject to

the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow hereunder. The obligation of Borrower to repay to each Lender the aggregate amount of all Loans made by such Lender, together with interest accruing in connection therewith, may, at the option and upon the request of a Lender, be evidenced by a single promissory note (herein called such Lender’s “Note”) made by Borrower payable to such Lender or its registered assigns in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions. The amount of principal owing on any Lender’s Note at any given time shall be the aggregate amount of all Loans theretofore made by such Lender minus all payments of principal theretofore received by such Lender on such Note.

Section 2.2 Requests for New Loans. Borrower must give to Administrative Agent written or electronic notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of any requested Borrowing of new Loans to be advanced by Lenders. Each such notice constitutes a “Borrowing Notice” hereunder and must:

(a) specify (i) the aggregate amount of any such Borrowing of new Base Rate Loans and the date on which such Base Rate Loans are to be advanced, or (ii) the aggregate amount of any such Borrowing of new Eurodollar Loans, the date on which such Eurodollar Loans are to be advanced (which date shall be the first day of the Interest Period that is to apply thereto), and the length of the applicable Interest Period; and

(b) be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on (i) the day on which any such Base Rate Loans are to be made, or (ii) the 3rd Business Day preceding the day on which any such Eurodollar Loans are to be made.

Each such written request or confirmation must be made in the form and substance of the “Borrowing Notice” attached hereto as Exhibit B, duly completed. Each such telephonic request shall be deemed a representation, warranty, acknowledgment and agreement by Borrower as to the matters that are required to be set out in such written confirmation. Upon receipt of any such Borrowing Notice, Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the terms thereof. If all conditions precedent to such new Loans have been met, each Lender will on the date requested promptly remit to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s office in New York City the amount of such Lender’s new Loan in immediately available funds, and upon receipt of such funds, unless to its actual knowledge any conditions precedent to such Loans have been neither met nor waived as provided herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make such Loans available to Borrower. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, Administrative Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this Section 2.2 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If Borrower and

such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent.

Section 2.3 Continuations and Conversions of Existing Loans. Borrower may make the following elections with respect to Loans already outstanding: to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans, to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and to continue Eurodollar Loans beyond the expiration of such Interest Period by designating a new Interest Period to take effect at the time of such expiration. In making such elections, Borrower may combine existing Loans made pursuant to separate Borrowings into one new Borrowing or divide existing Loans made pursuant to one Borrowing into separate new Borrowings, provided that Borrower may have no more than four (4) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any time. To make any such election, Borrower must give to Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of any such Conversion or Continuation of existing Loans, with a separate notice given for each new Borrowing. Each such notice constitutes a “Continuation/Conversion Notice” hereunder and must:

(a) specify the existing Loans that are to be Continued or Converted;

(b) specify (i) the aggregate amount of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into which such existing Loans are to be continued or converted and the date on which such Continuation or Conversion is to occur, or (ii) the aggregate amount of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans into which such existing Loans are to be continued or converted, the date on which such Continuation or Conversion is to occur (which date shall be the first day of the Interest Period that is to apply to such Eurodollar Loans), and the length of the applicable Interest Period; and

(c) be received by Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. on (i) the day on which any such Continuation or Conversion to Base Rate Loans is to occur, or (ii) the 3rd Business Day preceding the day on which any such Continuation or Conversion to Eurodollar Loans is to occur.

Each such written request or confirmation must be made in the form and substance of the “Continuation/Conversion Notice” attached hereto as Exhibit C, duly completed. Each such telephonic request shall be deemed a representation, warranty, acknowledgment and agreement by Borrower as to the matters that are required to be set out in such written confirmation. Upon receipt of any such Continuation/Conversion Notice, Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the terms thereof. Each Continuation/Conversion Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower. During the continuance of any Default, Borrower may not make any election to convert existing Loans into Eurodollar Loans or continue existing Loans as Eurodollar Loans. If (due to the existence of a Default or for any other reason) Borrower fails to timely and properly give any Continuation/Conversion Notice with respect to a Borrowing of existing Eurodollar Loans at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Eurodollar Loans shall automatically be converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of such

Interest Period. No new funds shall be repaid by Borrower or advanced by any Lender in connection with any Continuation or Conversion of existing Loans pursuant to this Section, and no such Continuation or Conversion shall be deemed to be a new advance of funds for any purpose; such Continuations and Conversions merely constitute a change in the interest rate applicable to already outstanding Loans.

Section 2.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use all Loans (a) to pay fees and expenses payable in connection with the closing of this Agreement and the funding of the initial Loans hereunder, (b) for acquisitions permitted by Section 7.17, (c) to finance capital expenditures, (d) to refinance from time to time Matured LC Obligations, (e) to provide working capital for its operations, (f) to make Distributions permitted by Section 7.6, (g) to refinance Indebtedness under the Prior Credit Facility, and (h) for other general corporate purposes. Borrower shall use all Letters of Credit for its lawful business purposes. In no event shall the funds from any Loan or any Letter of Credit be used directly or indirectly by any Person for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes or for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing, acquiring or carrying any “margin stock” (as such term is defined in Regulation U) or to extend credit to others directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock. Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of Borrower’s important activities, in the business of extending credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying such margin stock. No part of the proceeds of any Loan, directly or indirectly, will be used for the purpose of financing the activities of any Person currently subject to any Sanctions.

(a) Interest Rates.

Subject to subsection (b) below, all other Obligations shall bear interest on each day outstanding at a per annum rate equal to sum of the Applicable Margin in effect for such day plus the Adjusted Base Rate in effect on such day; provided in no case shall such rate charged shall ever exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

(b) Default Rate. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under Section 8.1(a), (b), (j)(i), (j)(ii), or (j)(iii), all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rate. In addition, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than under Section 8.1(a), (b), (j)(i), (j)(ii), or (j)(iii)), Required Lenders (or Administrative Agent at the direction of Required Lenders) may, by notice to Borrower, elect to have all the outstanding Obligations bear interest at the applicable Default Rate, whereupon such Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rate until the earlier of (i) the first date thereafter upon which there shall be no Event of Default continuing and (ii) the date upon which Required Lenders shall have rescinded such notice.

(c) Commitment Fees. In consideration of each Lender’s commitment to make Loans, Borrower will pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee determined on a daily basis by applying the Commitment Fee Rate to the remainder of (i) such Lender’s Commitment minus (ii) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Facility Usage determined at the end of each day during the Commitment Period. This commitment fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter and at the end of the Commitment Period.

(d) Fee Letter. In addition to all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, Borrower will pay fees to Administrative Agent as described in the Fee Letter.

(f) Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Interest Rates. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Borrower or for any other reason, Borrower or Required Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, automatically and without further action by Administrative Agent, any Lender or LC Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.

This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Administrative Agent, any Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, under this Section 2.5 or Section 2.11(a) or under Article VIII. Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.6 Optional Prepayments; Commitment Reductions.

(a) Borrower may, from time to time and without premium or penalty prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent, provided that (i) such notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (A) on the day on which any Base Rate Loan is to be prepaid and (B) on the third Business Day preceding the day on which any Eurodollar Loan is to be prepaid, (ii) the aggregate amounts of all partial prepayments of principal on the Loans on such date is not less than $500,000 (in the case of any Eurodollar Loan) and $100,000 or such lesser amount as is agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (in the case of any Base Rate Loan) and, if higher, is an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) if Borrower prepays any Eurodollar Loan on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, it shall pay to Lenders any amounts due under Section 3.4. Each prepayment of principal under this Section shall be accompanied by all interest

then accrued and unpaid on the principal so prepaid. Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this Section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise required to be paid under the Loan Documents at the time of such prepayment.

(b) Borrower may, upon notice to Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitment, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitment; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitment if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Facility Usage would exceed the Aggregate Commitment, and (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment or the LC Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, each such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitment. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

Section 2.7 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) If any Restricted Person incurred Indebtedness not permitted by Section 7.1 hereof (but without this provision being construed to permit any incurrence of Indebtedness in violation of Section 7.1), Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans equal to 100% of the net proceeds from the incurrence of such Indebtedness not later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof by such Person.

(b) If any Restricted Person (i) Disposes of any property other than any Disposition permitted by Section 7.5 (but without this provision being construed to permit any Disposition in violation of Section 7.5), or (ii) receives proceeds of casualty or condemnation (except, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), to the extent such proceeds are applied within 180 days after receipt thereof to the repair or replacement of the property subject to such casualty or condemnation or to reinvestment in property (other than inventory or working capital) useful in the business of the Restricted Persons) that results in the realization by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of an aggregate amount (for all Dispositions after deducting amounts that have previously been applied to the principal of the Loans under this Section 2.7(b)) of $5,000,000, Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to such Net Cash Proceeds that so exceed $5,000,000 no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof by such Person.

(c) If on any day the Facility Usage exceeds the Availability on such day, Borrower shall prepay the principal of the Loans in an amount equal to such excess no later than one (1) Business Day after such day.

(d) Each prepayment under this Section 2.7 shall be accompanied by a notice from Borrower to Administrative Agent specifying (i) the amount of such prepayment, and (ii) the specific Borrowings that are being prepaid by such prepayment, including the Eurodollar Loans,

if any, that are being prepaid by such prepayment, which notice may be delivered electronically. Each prepayment under this Section 2.7 shall be applied to specific Borrowings as specified by Borrower and shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such prepaid Borrowings; provided that if Borrower fails to so specify such Borrowings, then Administrative Agent shall first prepay any outstanding Base Rate Loans and then to any Eurodollar Loans specified by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. Each prepayment of principal under this Section shall be accompanied by all interest then accrued and unpaid on the principal so prepaid plus any amounts due under Section 3.4. Any principal or interest prepaid pursuant to this Section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise required to be paid under the Loan Documents at the time of such prepayment. Prepayment of principal under this Section shall not reduce the Aggregate Commitments.

Section 2.8 Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may at any time during the Commitment Period request LC Issuer to issue, increase the amount of or otherwise amend or extend, one or more Letters of Credit, provided that, after taking such Letter of Credit into account:

(a) the Facility Usage does not exceed the Availability at such time;

(b) the aggregate amount of LC Obligations at such time does not exceed the LC Sublimit;

(c) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (as extended, if applicable) is prior to the earliest to occur of (i) twelve (12) months after the issuance thereof, and (ii) the Letter of Credit Termination Date (unless such Letter of Credit has been collateralized on terms acceptable to the LC Issuer);

(d) such Letter of Credit is to be used for general business purposes of a Restricted Person;

(e) such Letter of Credit is not directly or indirectly used to assure payment of or otherwise support any Indebtedness of any Person;

(f) the issuance of such Letter of Credit will be in compliance with all applicable Governmental Requirements and will not subject LC Issuer to any cost that is not reimbursable under Article III;

(g) the form and terms of such Letter of Credit are acceptable to LC Issuer in its discretion; and

(h) all other conditions in this Agreement to the issuance of such Letter of Credit have been satisfied.

LC Issuer will honor any such request if the foregoing conditions (a) through (h) (the “LC Conditions”) have been met as of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. LC Issuer may choose to honor any such request for any other Letter of Credit but has no obligation to do so and may refuse to issue any other requested Letter of Credit for any reason that LC Issuer in its discretion deems relevant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, LC Issuer

shall not at any time be obligated to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit if any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless LC Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to LC Issuer (in its discretion) with Borrower or such Lender to eliminate LC Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other LC Obligations as to which LC Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its discretion.

Borrower may also at any time during the Commitment Period request that LC Issuer extend the expiration date of an existing Letter of Credit or modify an existing Letter of Credit (other than an increase or extension) and LC Issuer will honor such request if the LC Conditions set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 2.8 are met and no Default exists at the time of such request; provided that in the case of any such modification (other than an increase or extension), LC Issuer shall have approved such modification.

LC Issuer shall have at all times the benefits and immunities (i) provided to Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by LC Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included LC Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to LC Issuer.

Section 2.9 Requesting Letters of Credit.

(a) Borrower must make written application to LC Issuer and written notice Administrative Agent for any Letter of Credit or amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as LC Issuer may in its discretion from time to time agree) before the date on which Borrower desires for LC Issuer to issue such Letter of Credit. By making any such written application, unless otherwise expressly stated therein, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that the LC Conditions described in Section 2.8 will be met as of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such written application for a Letter of Credit must be made in writing in the form customarily used by LC Issuer, the terms and provisions of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference (or in such other form as may mutually be agreed upon by LC Issuer and Borrower).

(b) Upon satisfaction of two Business Days after the LC Conditions for a Letter of Credit have been met as described in Section 2.8 (or if LC Issuer otherwise desires to issue such Letter of Credit earlier), LC Issuer will issue such Letter of Credit at LC Issuer’s office in New York City. If any provisions of any LC Application conflict with any provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control. Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will immediately notify LC Issuer.

Section 2.10 Reimbursement and Participations.

(a) Reimbursement by Borrower. Borrower shall, within one (1) Business Day after demand therefor by LC Issuer, reimburse LC Issuer for the full amount of all amounts paid by LC Issuer on drafts or demands for payment drawn or made under or purported to be drawn on or made under any Letter of Credit. Borrower promises to pay to LC Issuer, or to LC Issuer’s order, within one (1) Business Day after demand therefor by LC Issuer, the full amount of each Matured LC Obligation, together with interest thereon (i) at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans to and including the first Business Day after such demand is made by LC Issuer and (ii) at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans on each day thereafter. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse LC Issuer for each Matured LC Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including any LC Application) under all circumstances, including the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), LC Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; (iv) any payment by LC Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (v) compliance with any laws, customs and regulations which may be effective in countries of issuance, presentation under, negotiation and/or payment of any Letter of Credit or any ruling of any court or Governmental Authority, or any control or restriction rightfully or wrongfully exercised by any government or group asserting or exercising governmental or paramount powers; (vi) the acceptance by LC Issuer as complying with the applicable Letter of Credit of any draft or document drawn, issued or presented under such Letter of Credit which is issued or purportedly issued by an agent, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative or successor of the party identified in such Letter of Credit as the party permitted to draw, issue or present such draft or document (or any transferee thereof); (vii) any error, neglect, insolvency, failure of business or default of any of LC Issuer’s Nominated Persons; (viii) any delay, omission, interruption, loss in transit, or mutilation or other errors arising in (A) transmission, dispatch or delivery of any document or draft or proceeds thereof or (B) transmission, dispatch or delivery of any messages by mail, cable, telegraph, wireless or otherwise, whether or not they be in code; (ix) the description, weight, existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of the property, services or performance purporting to be represented by documents, or errors in translation or errors in interpretation of technical terms; (x) any difference in character, quality, quantity, condition or value of the property from that expressed in documents; (xi) the time, place, manner or order in which shipment is made; (xii) any partial or incomplete shipment or failure or omission to ship any or all of the property referred to in any Letter of Credit; (xiii) the character, adequacy, validity or genuineness of any insurance; (xiv) the solvency or responsibility of any insurer, or the acts or omissions, performance or standing of any insurer, or any other risk connected with insurance; (xv) any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by the

shipper or anyone else in connection with the property or the shipping thereof; (xvi) the solvency, responsibility, performance or standing of, or the acts or omissions of, any consignor, carrier, forwarder or consignee of any goods or any other Person; (xvii) any delay in arrival or failure to arrive of either the property or any of the documents relating thereto; (xviii) any delay in giving or failure to give notice of arrival or any other notice; (xix) any claim, breach of contract or dispute between the beneficiary, shippers or vendors and Borrower; (xx) any waiver of any requirement in a Letter of Credit that exists for LC Issuer’s protection and not the protection of Borrower or any waiver which does not in fact materially prejudice Borrower; (xxi) any payment made in respect of a draft or document presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if payment after such date is authorized by the UCC, the UCP or the ISP, as applicable; (xxii) without limiting the foregoing, any consequences arising (A) from the interruption of LC Issuer’s business, acts of God, riots, civil commotions, insurrections, war, acts of terrorism, strikes, lockouts, or other causes beyond LC Issuer’s control, (B) from any act or omission by LC Issuer or any of its Nominated Persons, Affiliates or agents or any bank whose services are utilized for the purpose of giving effect to Borrower’s instructions, in each case if not done or omitted with LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (C) from the failure of another bank to carry out instructions transmitted by LC Issuer, whether such other bank was selected by Borrower, LC Issuer or any other Person; or (xxiii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; and none of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of LC Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder. If any Letter of Credit provides that payments are to be made by the applicable LC Issuer’s Nominated Person, neither LC Issuer nor such Nominated Person shall be responsible for the failure of any of the documents specified in such Letter of Credit to come into LC Issuer’s possession or for any delay in connection therewith, and Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be affected by such failure or delay in the receipt by LC Issuer of any such documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that the absolute and unconditional nature of Borrower’s obligations under this Section to reimburse LC Issuer for each drawing under a Letter of Credit will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of LC Issuer. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse LC Issuer from liability to Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by Borrower that are caused by LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

In addition to the exculpatory provisions contained in the UCP, the ISP and/or the UCC, as applicable, the LC Issuer and LC Issuer’s Nominated Persons shall not be responsible for, and Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Issuer for each Matured LC Obligation shall not be affected or reduced by, any action or inaction required or permitted under the UCC, the UCP or the ISP, in each case as applicable.

(b) Letter of Credit Advances. If the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit makes a draft or other demand for payment thereunder then Borrower may, during the interval between the making thereof and the honoring thereof by LC Issuer, request Lenders to make Loans to Borrower in the amount of such draft or demand, which Loans shall be made concurrently with LC Issuer’s payment of such draft or demand and shall be immediately used by LC Issuer to repay the amount of the resulting Matured LC Obligation. Such a request by Borrower shall be made in compliance

with all of the provisions hereof, provided that for the purposes of the first sentence of Section 2.1, the amount of such Loans shall be considered, but the amount of the Matured LC Obligation to be concurrently paid by such Loans shall not be considered.

(c) Participation by Lenders. LC Issuer irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Lender, and to induce LC Issuer to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each Lender irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from LC Issuer, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated and for such Lender’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of LC Issuer’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each Matured LC Obligation paid by LC Issuer thereunder. Each Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with LC Issuer that, if a Matured LC Obligation is paid under any Letter of Credit for which LC Issuer is not reimbursed in full by Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the related LC Application (including any reimbursement by means of concurrent Loans or by the application of Cash Collateral), such Lender shall (in all circumstances and without set-off or counterclaim) severally pay to LC Issuer on demand (and Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose), in immediately available funds at LC Issuer’s address for notices hereunder, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Matured LC Obligation (or any portion thereof that has not been reimbursed by Borrower). Each Lender’s obligation to pay LC Issuer pursuant to the terms of this subsection is irrevocable and unconditional. If any amount required to be paid by any Lender to LC Issuer pursuant to this subsection is paid by such Lender to LC Issuer within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, LC Issuer shall in addition to such amount be entitled to recover from such Lender, on demand, interest thereon calculated from such due date at the Federal Funds Rate. If any amount required to be paid by any Lender to LC Issuer pursuant to this subsection is not paid by such Lender to LC Issuer within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, LC Issuer shall in addition to such amount be entitled to recover from such Lender, on demand, interest thereon calculated from such due date at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(d) Distributions to Participants. Whenever LC Issuer has in accordance with this Section received from any Lender payment of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Matured LC Obligation, if LC Issuer thereafter receives any payment of such Matured LC Obligation or any payment of interest thereon (whether directly from Borrower or by application of Cash Collateral or otherwise, and excluding only interest for any period prior to LC Issuer’s demand that such Lender make such payment of its Applicable Percentage), LC Issuer will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage of the amounts so received by LC Issuer; provided, however, that if any such payment received by LC Issuer must thereafter be returned by LC Issuer, such Lender shall return to LC Issuer the portion thereof that LC Issuer has previously distributed to it.

(e) Calculations. A written advice setting forth in reasonable detail the amounts owing under this Section, submitted by LC Issuer to Borrower or any Lender from time to time, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the amounts thereof.

Section 2.11 Letter of Credit Fees. In consideration of LC Issuer’s issuance of any Letter of Credit, Borrower agrees to pay (a) to Administrative Agent, for the account of all Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages, a letter of credit issuance fee at a rate

equal to the Letter of Credit Fee Rate then in effect (which fee shall be increased by 2.0% per annum during any period in which interest on the Loans accrues at the Default Rate), and (b) to such LC Issuer for its own account, a letter of credit fronting fee at a rate specified in the Fee Letter times the face amount of such Letter of Credit (but in no event less than $500 per annum); provided, however, any Letter of Credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.8 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to LC Issuer for its own account. In addition, Borrower will pay to LC Issuer LC Issuer’s customary fees for issuance, amendment and drawing of each Letter of Credit. The letter of credit fee and the letter of credit fronting fee will be calculated on the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit outstanding on each day at the above-applicable rates and will be due and payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter and at the end of the Commitment Period.

Section 2.12 No Duty to Inquire.

(a) Drafts and Demands. LC Issuer is authorized and instructed to accept and pay drafts and demands for payment under any Letter of Credit without requiring, and without responsibility for, any determination as to the existence of any event giving rise to said draft, either at the time of acceptance or payment or thereafter. LC Issuer is under no duty to determine the proper identity of anyone presenting such a draft or making such a demand (whether by tested telex or otherwise) as the officer, representative or agent of any beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, and payment by LC Issuer to any such beneficiary when requested by any such purported officer, representative or agent is hereby authorized and approved. LC Issuer shall have the right, in its discretion, to decline to accept documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. Borrower releases each Lender Party from, and agrees to hold each Lender Party harmless and indemnified against, any liability or claim in connection with or arising out of the subject matter of this Section, which indemnity shall apply whether or not any such liability or claim is in any way or to any extent caused, in whole or in part, by any negligent act or omission of any kind by any Lender Party, provided only that no Lender Party shall be released from or entitled to indemnification for that portion, if any, of any liability or claim that is proximately caused by or results from its own individual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Extension of Maturity. If the maturity of any Letter of Credit is extended by its terms or by Law or governmental action, if any extension of the maturity or time for presentation of drafts or any other modification of the terms of any Letter of Credit is made at the request of any Restricted Person, or if the amount of any Letter of Credit is increased at the request of any Restricted Person, this Agreement shall be binding upon all Restricted Persons with respect to such Letter of Credit as so extended, increased or otherwise modified, with respect to drafts and property covered thereby, and with respect to any action taken by LC Issuer, LC Issuer’s correspondents, or any Lender Party in accordance with such extension, increase or other modification.

(c) Transferees of Letters of Credit. If any Letter of Credit provides that it is transferable, LC Issuer shall have no duty to determine the proper identity of anyone appearing as transferee of such Letter of Credit, nor shall LC Issuer be charged with responsibility of any nature or character for the validity or correctness of any transfer or successive transfers, and payment by LC Issuer to any purported transferee or transferees as determined by LC Issuer is hereby authorized and approved, and Borrower releases each Lender Party from, and agrees to hold each Lender Party harmless and indemnified against, any liability or claim in connection with or arising out of the foregoing, which indemnity shall apply whether or not any such liability or claim is in any way or to any extent caused, in whole or in part, by any negligent act or omission of any kind by any Lender Party, provided only that no Lender Party shall be released from or entitled to indemnification for that portion, if any, of any liability or claim that is proximately caused by or results from its own individual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against such beneficiary or transferee.

(d) Role of the LC Issuer.

(i) The responsibility of LC Issuer to Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of Borrower shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered by or on behalf of the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment appear on their face to be in conformity with such Letter of Credit. In addition, the Lenders and Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing or demand for payment under any Letter of Credit, LC Issuer shall not have any responsibility to inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any document presented in connection with such drawing or demand for payment or the authority of the Person executing or delivering the same.

(ii) Neither LC Issuer nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of LC Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for: (A) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith in respect of any Letter of Credit at the request or with the approval or deemed approval of the Required Lenders; (B) any action taken or omitted in respect of any Letter of Credit in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (C) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any document delivered in connection with the issuance or payment of such Letter of Credit.

Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, or the participations in LC Obligations resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in LC

Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them (except that with respect to any other Lender that is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of such Lender failing to fund its required share (if any) of any Loan or LC Obligation, such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of the excess payment shall be allocated to the Lender (or the Lenders, pro rata) that funded such Defaulting Lender’s required share (if any)), provided that:

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

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in LC Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

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

Section 2.14 Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 2.2 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan; to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.4(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.4(c).

Section 2.15 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of Administrative Agent or LC Issuer (i) if LC Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in a Matured LC Obligation which has not been reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.10, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Termination Date, any LC Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then outstanding amount of (A) in the case of the foregoing clause (i), such Matured LC Obligation and (B) in the case of the foregoing clause (ii), all LC Obligations (unless such Restricted Person has made arrangements to Cash Collateralize or provide other credit support for such Letter of Credit

satisfactory to the LC Issuer on or before the Letter of Credit Termination Date). If, after the making of all mandatory prepayments required under Section 2.7, the outstanding LC Obligations would cause the Facility Usage to exceed Availability, then in addition to prepayment of the entire principal balance of the Loans required under Section 2.7, Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then outstanding LC Obligations in an amount equal to such excess. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of Administrative Agent or LC Issuer, Borrower shall deliver Cash Collateral to Administrative Agent in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure allocable to such Defaulting Lender (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Administrative Agent. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent, LC Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c). If at any time Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.16, or 8.3 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific LC Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.5(b)) or (ii) Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Restricted Person shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.15 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.3), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and LC Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

Section 2.16 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.1 and the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article III or VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.14), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to LC Issuer hereunder; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent or requested by LC Issuer, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders or LC Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or LC Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Matured LC Obligations in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Matured LC Obligations were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Matured LC Obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Matured LC Obligations owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this

Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (1) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.5(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (2) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.11.

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of that Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Obligations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to that Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate amount of the Loans and participations in LC Obligations of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed the lesser of (1) such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (2) such non-Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment (calculated without giving effect to any reallocations pursuant to this clause (iv)). Subject to Section 10.16, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Administrative Agent and LC Issuer agree in writing in their discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which conditions may include reasonable arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.17 Increase in Aggregate Commitment.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitment by an amount (for all such requests) that would not cause the resulting Aggregate Commitments to exceed, after giving effect to all requests, $500,000,000, provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested increase, provided that each such increasing Lender shall be subject to the approval of Administrative Agent, and LC Issuer. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer, Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

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

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent (x) a certificate of each Restricted Person dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Restricted Person (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Restricted Person approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifiers contained therein) on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default exists and (y) such other documentation, including legal opinions, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request relating to such increase. The (1) Borrower shall borrow additional Loans from the Lenders whose Commitments have been increased and/or prepay any Loans (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.4) or (2) Lenders, Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have entered into an assignment and assumption agreement to the extent necessary, in either case, to keep the

outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.1 to the contrary; provided that no Lender’s Commitment may be increased without such Lender’s consent.

Section 2.18 Reallocation of Loans Among Lenders. After giving effect to this Agreement and any borrowings or extensions of Loans made on the Closing Date, each Lender (other than an Exiting Lender) shall advance, purchase and/or continue Loans in an aggregate amount not less than its Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment on the Closing Date, which Loans shall be disbursed to the Administrative Agent and used to repay Loans outstanding to each Lender who holds Loans in an aggregate amount greater than its Commitment as of the Closing Date.

Article III
PAYMENTS TO LENDERS

Section 3.1 General Procedures. Borrower will make each payment that it owes under the Loan Documents to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Party to whom such payment is owed, in lawful money of the United States, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim, and in immediately available funds. Each such payment must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date such payment becomes due and payable. Any payment received by Administrative Agent after such time will be deemed to have been made on the next following Business Day. Should any such payment become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of a payment of principal or past due interest, interest shall accrue and be payable thereon for the period of such extension as provided in the Loan Document under which such payment is due. Each payment under a Loan Document shall be due and payable at the place set forth for Administrative Agent on the Lenders Schedule. When Administrative Agent collects or receives money on account of the Obligations, Administrative Agent shall distribute all money so collected or received, and each Lender Party shall apply all such money so distributed, as follows (except as otherwise provided in Section 8.3):

(a) first, for the payment of all Obligations that are then due (and if such money is insufficient to pay all such Obligations, first to any reimbursements due to Administrative Agent under Section 6.9 or 10.4 and then to the partial payment of all other Obligations then due in proportion to the amounts thereof, or as Lender Parties shall otherwise agree);

(b) then for the prepayment of principal of the Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal so prepaid; and

All payments applied to principal or interest shall be applied first to any interest then due and payable, then to principal then due and payable, and last to any prepayment of principal and interest in compliance with Sections 2.6 and 2.7. All distributions of amounts described in any of subsections (b) or (c) above shall be made by Administrative Agent pro rata to each Lender Party

then owed Obligations described in such subsection in proportion to all amounts owed to all Lender Parties that are described in such subsection; provided that if any Lender then owes payments to LC Issuer for the purchase of a participation under Section 2.10(c) or to Administrative Agent under Section 10.4(c), any amounts otherwise distributable under this Section to such Lender shall be deemed to belong to LC Issuer, or Administrative Agent, respectively, to the extent of such unpaid payments, and Administrative Agent shall apply such amounts to make such unpaid payments rather than distribute such amounts to such Lender.

Section 3.2 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any Reserve Requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate) or LC Issuer;

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit, any Commitment, any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Recipient; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or LC Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, LC Issuer, or such other Recipient 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, LC Issuer, or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, LC Issuer, or other Recipient, Borrower will pay to such Lender, LC Issuer, or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, LC Issuer, or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or LC Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or LC Issuer or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this

Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by LC Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or LC Issuer or such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or LC Issuer or such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or LC Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or LC Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or LC Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 3.3 Illegality. If any Change in Law after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans, then, upon notice by such Lender Party to Borrower and Administrative Agent, (a) Borrower’s right to elect Eurodollar Loans from such Lender Party shall be suspended to the extent and for the duration of such illegality, (b) all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender Party that are then the subject of any Borrowing Notice and that cannot be lawfully funded shall be funded as Base Rate Loans of such Lender Party, and (c) all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender Party shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by Law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day that is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall pay to such Lender Party such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.4.

Section 3.4 Funding Losses. In addition to its other obligations hereunder, Borrower will indemnify each Lender Party against, and reimburse each Lender Party on demand for, any loss or expense incurred or sustained by such Lender Party (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by a Lender Party to fund or maintain Eurodollar Loans), as a result of (a) any payment or prepayment (whether authorized or required hereunder or otherwise) of all or a portion of a Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on which the applicable Interest Period ends, (b) any payment or prepayment, whether required hereunder or otherwise, of a Loan made after the delivery, but before the effective

date, of a Continuation/Conversion Notice requesting the continuation of outstanding Eurodollar Loans as, or the conversion of outstanding Base Rate Loans to, Eurodollar Loans, if such payment or prepayment prevents such Continuation/ Conversion Notice from becoming fully effective, (c) the failure of any Loan to be made or of any Continuation/Conversion Notice requesting the continuation of outstanding Eurodollar Loans as, or the conversion of outstanding Base Rate Loans to, Eurodollar Loans to become effective due to any condition precedent not being satisfied or due to any other action or inaction of any Restricted Person, (d) any Conversion or other conversion (whether authorized or required hereunder or otherwise) of all or any portion of any Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan or into a different Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the day on which the applicable Interest Period ends, or (e) any assignment of a Eurodollar Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by Borrower pursuant to Section 3.7(b). Such indemnification shall be on an after-tax basis.

Section 3.5 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.5, the term “Lender” includes any LC Issuer and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, (ii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (b) above, Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.5(d) 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 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 Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes 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 Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this subsection (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.5, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.4(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.5), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.5 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require

any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.5 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 3.6 Circumstances Affecting Eurodollar Rate Availability.

(a) Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (b) below, in connection with any request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or a conversion to or continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Borrowing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for the ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing or (iii) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Eurodollar Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Eurodollar Borrowings during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans and the right of Borrower to convert any Borrowing to or continue any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and Borrower shall either (x) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such Borrowing together with accrued interest thereon (subject to Section 10.8), on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing; or (y) convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Borrowing as of the last day of such Interest Period.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.6(a) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 3.6(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event

described in Section 3.6(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent) notifies Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at a rate based on such Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 3.6(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 10.1), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects). To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (b), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).

(c) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, Administrative Agent is advised by Required Lenders that the Eurodollar 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 Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower and Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Continuation/Conversion Notice that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be ineffective and shall be deemed a request to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) if any Borrowing Notice requests a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans.

Section 3.7 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.2, or requires Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.5, then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.5, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.2, or if Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.7(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.5), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.2 and Section 3.5) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.5;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Matured LC Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.4) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.2 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.5, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.

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

Section 3.8 Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders or LC Issuer hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or LC Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or LC Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or LC Issuer, 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 Administrative Agent,

at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(b) In furtherance thereof, each Restricted Person shall promptly (and in any event, within 30 calendar days) notify Administrative Agent of any and all Restricted Persons owning or obtaining interests (whether by acquisition, lease, easement, right of way, surface use agreement, acreage dedication, other conveyance or otherwise) that, together with any real property interests owned by Restricted Persons as of the Closing Date, cause the aggregate acquisition cost of all real property owned by Restricted Persons for which no deeds of trust or mortgages have been provided to secure the Secured Obligations to exceed $5,000,000.

(c) In addition, Borrower agrees to provide, and to cause each other Restricted Person to provide, title information in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent for any property on which a Lien is required to be granted pursuant to this Section 6.17. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days after (or such later date as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) the end of each Fiscal Quarter during which recorded copies of any leases, easement estate, rights-of-way, surface use agreements, deeds, or similar instruments conveying real property interests to Borrower or any Restricted Person are made available to Borrower or any Restricted Person, provide copies of such recorded instruments to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts in negotiating any new lease, right-of-way, easement, surface use agreement, or similar instrument or the renewal or extension of any existing lease, easement estate, right-of-way, surface use agreement or similar instrument covering real property to provide in such lease, easement estate, right-of-way, surface use agreement or similar instrument that the interest of the lessee or grantee may be hypothecated without any further approval of or notice to the landlord under such lease or the grantor under any such easement, right-of-way, surface use agreement or similar instrument.

Section 6.18 Revenues. Notwithstanding that, by the terms of the various Security Documents, Restricted Persons are and will be assigning to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties all of the “Revenues” (as defined therein) derived from the property covered thereby, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing Restricted Persons may continue to receive from the payors thereof all such Revenues, subject, however, to the Liens created under the Security Documents, which Liens are hereby affirmed and ratified. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may exercise all rights and remedies granted under the Security Documents subject to the terms thereof, including the right to obtain possession of all Revenues then held by Restricted Persons or to receive directly from the payors thereof all other Revenues. In no case shall any failure, whether intentioned or inadvertent, by Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to collect directly any such Revenues constitute in any way a waiver, remission or release of any of their rights under the Security Documents, nor shall any release of any Revenues by Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to Restricted Persons constitute a waiver, remission, or release of any other Revenues or of any rights of Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to collect other Revenues thereafter.

Section 6.19 Perfection and Protection of Security Interests and Liens. Subject to any limitations on perfection set forth in the Security Documents, each Restricted Person shall from time to time deliver to Administrative Agent any financing statements, continuation statements,

extension agreements, amendments to Security Documents, deposit account control agreements, securities account control agreements, commodity account control agreements and other documents, properly completed and executed (and acknowledged when required) by such Restricted Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which Administrative Agent requests for the purpose of (i) perfecting, confirming, or protecting any Liens or other rights in Collateral securing any Secured Obligations, (ii) confirming and ensuring the first priority nature of the Liens created by the Loan Documents encumbering the Collateral and securing the Secured Obligations (except to the extent, if any, as may be otherwise expressly provided for within the Security Documents), and (iii) maintaining compliance with all applicable Laws, including those of any applicable Indian tribe, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management; provided that only the filing of a UCC financing statement shall be required to perfect any security interest in any immaterial intellectual property. Each Restricted Person hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the collateral describing the Collateral as “all assets” without the signature of any Restricted Person.

Section 6.20 Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Borrower:

(a) will cause the management, business and affairs of each of Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to be conducted in such a manner (including, without limitation, by keeping separate books of account, furnishing separate financial statements of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to creditors and potential creditors thereof and by not permitting properties of Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to be commingled) so that each Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a corporation will be treated as a corporate entity separate and distinct from Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries.

(b) will not, and will not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, incur, assume, guarantee or be or become liable for any Debt of any of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(c) will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to hold any Equity Interest in, or any Debt of, Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full. Borrower intends for this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Restricted Subsidiary for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(ii) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Secured Obligations guaranteed by any Guarantor, or secured by the grant of any Lien by such Guarantor under any Loan Document, shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to such Guarantor.

(B) with respect to any such test date on or after the effectiveness of a Qualifying IPO, 4.75 to 1.00, provided that, at the irrevocable written election of Borrower (x) upon the closing of any Material Acquisition (by delivering written notice of such election to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the closing date of such Material Acquisition), the maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio permitted under this clause (a)(i)(B) shall be temporarily increased to 5.25 to 1.00 for the Rolling Period ending on the last day of the Fiscal Quarter in which such Material Acquisition occurs and for each of the Rolling Periods ending on the last day of the next two immediately following Fiscal Quarters (the period of such temporary increase being referred to herein as a “Step-up Period”), and (y) upon the incurrence of any Permitted Note Indebtedness (by delivering written notice of such election to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the funding date of such Permitted Note Indebtedness), the maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio permitted under this clause (a)(i)(B) shall be temporarily increased to 5.25 to 1.00 for each of the Rolling Periods during which any such Permitted Note Indebtedness remains outstanding; provided, further, that if Borrower makes an election under clause (a)(i)(B)(x) above with respect to a new Material Acquisition and such election would cause a new Step-up Period to continue or begin immediately after

an existing Step-up Period terminates, Borrower must deliver an officer’s certificate demonstrating (with reasonably detailed supporting calculations) and certifying to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent that the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio would not be more than 4.75 to 1.00 as of the last day of the Fiscal Quarter in which such new Material Acquisition occurs (calculated without giving effect to such new Material Acquisition);

(ii) Maximum Senior Secured Leverage Ratio. From and after the date on which Borrower elects to increase the maximum Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio pursuant to clause (a)(i)(B)(y) above, beginning automatically upon such election as of the end of any Fiscal Quarter ending thereafter for which any such Permitted Note Indebtedness remains outstanding, Borrower will not permit the ratio of (i) Senior Secured Debt as of the end of such Fiscal Quarter, to (ii) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the Rolling Period ending with the end of such Fiscal Quarter to be greater than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00.

(b) Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. Borrower will not permit the ratio of (i) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for any Rolling Period, beginning with the Rolling Period ending June 30, 2018 to (ii) Consolidated Interest Expense for such period to be less than 2.50 to 1.00.

(c) Equity Cure Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.14 or in any Loan Document, in the event that Borrower fails to comply with any covenant set forth in this Section 7.14 during any Fiscal Quarter ending on or after June 30, 2018, then Borrower shall have the right to cure such failure (the “Cure Right”) by receiving cash proceeds from an issuance of common Equity (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) as a cash capital contribution made to Borrower after the end of such Fiscal Quarter and on or prior to the day (the “Cure Deadline”) that is ten (10) Business Days after delivery by Borrower to Lenders of a written notice of its intent to cure an Event of Default under Section 7.14 (which written notice shall be delivered on or prior to the date that is five (5) days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such Fiscal Quarter) solely for purpose of such cure and not otherwise required for working capital or capital expenditures purposes, and upon receipt by Borrower of such cash proceeds (such cash amount being referred to as the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise of such Cure Right, the covenant set forth in this Section 7.14 shall be recalculated as follows:

(i) Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purpose of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained herein at the end of the Fiscal Quarter for which the Cure Right was exercised and each applicable subsequent period that include such Fiscal Quarter for which the Cure Right was exercised and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; provided that neither Administrative Agent or Lenders shall exercise any rights or remedies (other than instituting at the Default Rate) with respect to any Event of Default that exists pursuant to Section 7.14 during the ten (10) Business Day period following notice by Borrower that it intends to exercise such Cure Right and affect such recalculation;

(ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of a covenant of this Section 7.14, Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date; provided that (A) in each period of four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarters there shall be at least two (2) Fiscal Quarters in which no Cure Right is exercised and the Cure Right shall not be used in two (2) consecutive Fiscal Quarters, (B) each Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required to cause Borrower to be in compliance with the applicable covenants of this Section 7.14 (such amount, the “Necessary Cure Amount”); provided that if the Cure Right is exercised prior to the date financial statements are required to be delivered for such Fiscal Quarter, then the Cure Amount shall be equal to the amount reasonably determined by Borrower in good faith that is required for purposes of complying with the applicable covenants of this Section 7.14 for such Fiscal Quarter (such amount, the “Expected Cure Amount”), (C) all Cure Amounts shall be disregarded for the purposes of any financial ratio determination under the Loan Documents other than for determining compliance with the applicable covenants of this Section 7.14, (D) no Lender or LC Issuer shall be required to make any extension of credit hereunder during the ten (10) Business Days after delivery by Borrower to Lenders of a written notice of its intent to cure an Event of Default referred to above, unless Borrower shall have received the Cure Amount, (E) Borrower may not exercise the Cure Right in more than four (4) Fiscal Quarters during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date and (F) Borrower may not make any cash Distributions unless it is in compliance with this Section 7.14 and in compliance with the conditions for such cash Distribution, in each case where the then immediately preceding four (4) Fiscal Quarter period did not include any Cure Amount.

(iii) To the extent that the Expected Cure Amount is less than the Necessary Cure Amount, then not later than the applicable Cure Deadline, Borrower must (i) receive cash proceeds from issuance of common Equity as a cash capital contribution made to Borrower, which cash proceeds received by Borrower shall be equal to the shortfall between such Expected Cure Amount and such Necessary Cure Amount, and (ii) furnish evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of such receipt and an additional Compliance Certificate evidencing the modified calculations. To the extent that the Expected Cure Amount is greater than the Necessary Cure Amount, the Cure Amount included in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA pursuant to clause (i) shall nevertheless be limited to the actual amount required to cause Borrower to be in compliance with the applicable covenants of this Section 7.14.

Section 7.15 Sale and Leaseback Transactions. No Restricted Person will, directly or indirectly, enter into any arrangement with any Person whereby in a substantially contemporaneous transaction such Restricted Person sells or transfers all or substantially all of its right, title and interest in an asset and, in connection therewith, acquires or leases back the right to use such asset.

100

Section 7.16 Use of Proceeds. No Restricted Person will use the proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit contrary to any provision of Section 2.4. Borrower will not request any Loan or Letter of Credit, and Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Restricted Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit (A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) to directly or indirectly fund, finance or facilitate any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent such activities, business or transaction would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated in the United States or in a European Union member state, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

Section 7.17 Permitted Acquisitions. Borrower shall not, except as otherwise permitted or required in this Agreement, purchase or otherwise acquire, or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to purchase or acquire, any Equity Interests in, any obligations or stock of, or any other interest in, or all or substantially all of the assets of, any Person whatsoever unless (i) permitted by Section 7.4, or (ii) (a) immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to any such purchase or acquisition, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing or will result therefrom, (b) such purchase or acquisition is consummated in accordance with applicable Law, and (c) immediately after giving effect to such purchase or acquisition of a company or business pursuant to this Section 7.17, Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.14, as evidenced by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Borrower delivered to Administrative Agent on the earlier of (i) the date that Borrower submits a Borrowing Notice if Borrower is making a Borrowing in connection therewith, or (ii) the date that Borrower consummates the transaction requiring the delivery of such certificate.

Section 7.18 Subsidiaries. Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or acquire any additional Restricted Subsidiary or redesignate an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary unless Borrower gives written notice to the Administrative Agent of such creation or acquisition and complies with Sections 6.16 and 6.17. Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, sell or otherwise transfer any Equity Interests in any Restricted Subsidiary except (i) to Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) in compliance with Section 7.5. Borrower will not permit any Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary to be directly owned by any Person other than Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

Section 7.19 Designation and Conversion of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) Any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Restricted Subsidiary unless such Person is hereafter designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with Section 7.19(b).

(b) Borrower may designate by written notification thereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by delivering a supplement to Section 5.13 of the Disclosure Schedule) to the Administrative Agent, any Restricted Subsidiary, including a newly formed or newly acquired Subsidiary, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) prior, and after giving effect, to such designation, no Default or Event of Default would exist, (ii) such designation is deemed to be an Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary on the date of such designation and such Investment is a Permitted

101

Investment under Section 7.7(i) and (iii) after giving effect to such designation, Borrower will be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.14. To the extent that any newly designated Unrestricted Subsidiary itself has any Subsidiaries when it is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Subsidiaries must also be designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in compliance with this Section 7.19(b). Except as provided in this Section 7.19(b), no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(c) Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if after giving effect to such designation, (i) the representations and warranties of Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries contained in each of the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date as if made on and as of the date of such redesignation except to the extent (A) any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, on and as of the date of such redesignation, such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct as of such specified earlier date and (B) to the extent that any such representation and warranty is expressly qualified by materiality or by reference to a Material Adverse Effect, such representation and warranty (as so qualified) shall be true and correct in all respects on and as of the date of such redesignation, (ii) no Event of Default would exist, (iii) after giving effect to such designation, Borrower will be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.14 and (iv) Borrower complies with the requirements of Section 6.16, Section 6.17 and Section 7.18 with respect to such Subsidiary. Upon any such designation, an amount equal to the lesser of the fair market value of Borrower’s direct and indirect ownership interest in such Subsidiary or the amount of Borrower’s cash investment previously made in such Subsidiary shall be deemed no longer outstanding for purposes of the limitation on Investments under Section 7.7.

Section 8.2 Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Required Lenders, or Administrative Agent at the direction of Required Lenders, may protect and enforce its rights under the Loan Documents by any appropriate proceedings, including proceedings for specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any Loan Document. All rights, remedies and powers conferred upon Lender Parties under the Loan Documents shall be deemed

105

cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or powers available under the Loan Documents or at Law or in equity.

Section 8.3 Application of Proceeds After Acceleration. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.2 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the LC Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in Section 2.15), any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of Administrative Agent) and amounts payable under Article III) payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (excluding other amounts provided for in clauses “Third” or “Fourth” below) payable to Lenders, LC Issuer and Lender Counterparties (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders, LC Issuer, and the Lender Counterparties and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit fees, accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, accrued and unpaid interest on Matured LC Obligations, and accrued and unpaid interest on Cash Management Obligations, and accrued and unpaid interest on Lender Hedging Obligations, ratably among Lenders, LC Issuer, Cash Management Lenders, and the Lender Counterparties, in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and Matured LC Obligations, obligations to Cash Collateralize LC Obligations pursuant to Section 2.15, Cash Management Obligations, and amounts due under or in connection with Hedging Contracts (including amounts payable in connection with the early termination of Hedging Contracts), ratably among Lenders, LC Issuer, Cash Management Lenders, and the Lender Counterparties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; and

Last, the balance, if any, after Payment in Full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law;

provided that, to the extent that any Excluded Swap Obligations exist with respect to any Guarantor, monies or property received from such Guarantor or from the proceeds of any Collateral provided by such Guarantor may not be shared with the Lender Counterparties to the extent that doing so would violate the Commodity Exchange Act (but to the maximum extent allowed under applicable law the amounts received or recovered from the other Restricted Persons

106

will instead be allocated to the Lender Counterparties as necessary to achieve the overall ratable applications of monies and property intended by this Section but for this proviso).

Subject to Section 2.15, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations and shall be excluded from the application described above if Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Lender, as the case may be. Each Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Lender not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

Article IX
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 9.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and LC Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and LC Issuer, and neither Borrower nor any other Restricted Person shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (except for the consent rights set forth in Section 9.7). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 9.2 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other

107

number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law;

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and

(iv) shall not be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any failure of any Restricted Person to perform its obligations hereunder or in any Loan Document.

Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.1 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to Administrative Agent by Borrower, a Lender or LC Issuer.

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

Section 9.3 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal, or increase of a

108

Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or LC Issuer, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or LC Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or LC Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Required Lenders, as it deems appropriate or as otherwise required by Sections 8.2 or 10.1 or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of Required Lenders, or as otherwise required by Sections 8.2 or 10.1 and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and all other Obligations.

Section 9.4 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and LC Issuer acknowledges that (a) it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement, and (b) none of Administrative Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Restricted Person or any audit or due diligence review prepared by the internal auditor of Administrative Agent, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender or LC Issuer. Each Lender and LC Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or Affiliates.

Section 9.5 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its

109

Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 9.6 Investments. Whenever Administrative Agent in good faith determines that it is uncertain about how to distribute to Lender Parties any funds that it has received, or whenever Administrative Agent in good faith determines that there is any dispute among Lender Parties about how such funds should be distributed, Administrative Agent may choose to defer distribution of the funds that are the subject of such uncertainty or dispute. If Administrative Agent in good faith believes that the uncertainty or dispute will not be promptly resolved, or if Administrative Agent is otherwise required to invest funds pending distribution to Lender Parties, Administrative Agent shall invest such funds pending distribution; all interest on any such Investment shall be distributed upon the distribution of such Investment and in the same proportion and to the same Persons as such Investment. All moneys received by Administrative Agent for distribution to Lender Parties (other than to the Person who is Administrative Agent in its separate capacity as a Lender Party) shall be held by Administrative Agent pending such distribution solely as Administrative Agent for such Lender Parties, and Administrative Agent shall have no equitable title to any portion thereof.

Section 9.7 Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, LC Issuer and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, subject, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the reasonable consent of Borrower, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and LC Issuer and in consultation with Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above provided that if Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or LC Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and LC Issuer directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and subject, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the reasonable consent of Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the

110

Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or LC Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and LC Issuer directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section.

(c) Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, as applicable, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.8 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.9 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the “Arranger,” “Syndication Agent” or “Documentation Agent” listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent, a Lender or LC Issuer hereunder.

Section 9.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any proceeding under Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Restricted Person, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of

111

whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Obligations 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 Lenders, LC Issuer and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders, LC Issuer and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders, LC Issuer and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.5 and 10.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) 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 and LC Issuer to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders and LC Issuer, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.5 and 10.4. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or LC Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Section 9.11 Guaranty Matters. Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty (i) if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder and/or (ii) Payment in Full. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, each Lender and LC Issuer will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11, provided that the absence of any such confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect Administrative Agent’s rights under this Section 9.11.

Section 9.12 Collateral Matters.

(a) Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Security Documents and any relevant subordination or intercreditor agreement for the benefit of such Lender and LC Issuer. Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth in Section 10.1, any action taken by the Required Lenders, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of Lenders and LC Issuer. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of all of Lenders and LC Issuer, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender or LC

112

Issuer from time to time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents that may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

(b) Any relevant Borrower Equity Pledge shall automatically be released (in its entirety and with respect to all Equity of Borrower pledged thereunder) upon delivery of written notice of the effectiveness of a Qualifying IPO, solely with respect to a direct initial public offering of Borrower’s Equity. For the avoidance of doubt, no such automatic release shall be permitted with respect to a Qualifying IPO of a New Parent or any other parent entity of Borrower. Any such Borrower Equity Pledge may be released by the Administrative Agent in advance of any such Qualifying IPO upon Borrower’s written request, solely to the extent such release is reasonably necessary in order to effect any such Qualifying IPO.

(c) Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its reasonable discretion,

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon Payment in Full, (B) that is sold or to be sold, or is owned by a Person that ceases to be a Guarantor as a result of a transaction permitted under any Loan Document, as part of or in connection with any transaction permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (C) subject to Section 10.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (D) in connection with any foreclosure sale or other disposition of Collateral after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and (E) to the extent expressly provided for in any Loan Document; and

(ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be senior to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations.

Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, each Lender and LC Issuer will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.12, provided that the absence of any such confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect Administrative Agent’s rights under this Section 9.12.

Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, no Person other than the Administrative Agent has any right to realize upon any of the Collateral individually, to enforce any Liens on Collateral, or to enforce the Security Documents, and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents (other than pursuant to Section 9.12(f) and Section 10.14, respectively) may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Persons secured or otherwise benefitted thereby.

(d) Subject to subsection (b) above, Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender and LC Issuer to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release or subordination of the Liens granted to Administrative Agent

113

for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and LC Issuer herein or pursuant hereto upon the applicable Collateral; provided that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to or create any liability or entail any consequence other than the release or subordination of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release or subordination shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Borrower or any other Restricted Person in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower or any other Restricted Person, including the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all expenses reasonably incurred by Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

(e) Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender, LC Issuer or any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or any other Restricted Person or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Administrative Agent herein or in any of the Security Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent in this Section 9.12 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of Lenders and that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to Lenders or LC Issuer.

(f) Each Lender and LC Issuer hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Lenders’ and LC Issuer’s security interest in assets that, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender or LC Issuer (other than Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender or LC Issuer shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Administrative Agent or in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

Section 9.13 Agreement to Assignment of ISDA Master Agreement. Each Lender hereby agrees (on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates party to any Hedging Contract with any Restricted Person) that the rights of the Restricted Persons under Hedging Contracts with such Lender (or, if applicable, its Affiliate) may be included in the Collateral.

Section 9.14 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have no knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a notice, Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking

114

such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 9.15 Lender Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Loan Document, no Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Lender that obtains the benefits of Section 8.3 or any Loan Document by virtue of the provisions hereof or thereof shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Lender Hedging Obligations and Cash Management Obligations unless Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Lender Counterparty or Cash Management Lender, as the case may be.

Section 9.16 Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders (provided that for this Section only Required Lenders shall require the consent of not less than two (2) Lenders holding in the aggregate at least 85% of the Facility Usage (with the aggregate amount of each Lender’s risk participation and funded participation in LC Obligations being deemed “held” by such Lender for purposes of this definition), in this Section called “Supermajority Lenders”), to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Restricted Person is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be credit bid by Administrative Agent at the direction of the Supermajority Lenders on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the Equity or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles in such manner as shall be approved by Supermajority Lenders. Each Secured Party agrees to execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.1 Waivers and Amendments; Acknowledgments.

(a) Waivers and Amendments. No failure or delay (whether by course of conduct or otherwise) by any Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy that such Lender Party may have under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, power or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any Lender Party of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document and no consent to any departure therefrom shall ever be effective unless it is in writing and signed as provided below in this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purposes for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. No notice to or demand on any Restricted Person shall in any case of itself entitle any Restricted Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents set forth the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and therein and supersede all prior discussions and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and no waiver, consent, release, modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be valid or effective against any party hereto unless the same is in writing and signed by (i) if such party is Borrower, by Borrower, (ii) if such party is Administrative Agent or LC Issuer, by such party, and (iii) if such party is a Lender, by such Lender or by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders with the written consent of Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Administrative Agent shall not, without the prior consent of each individual Lender affected thereby, execute and deliver on behalf of such Lender any waiver or amendment that would: (1) waive any of the conditions specified in Article IV (provided that Administrative Agent may in its discretion withdraw any request it has made under Section 4.2(e)), (2) increase the maximum amount that such Lender is committed hereunder to lend, (3) reduce any fees payable to such Lender hereunder, or the principal of, or interest (excluding any waiver of interest at the Default Rate and any future reduction in the Applicable Margin resulting from an amendment to the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA”) on, such Lender’s Loans, (4) extend the Maturity Date, waive the provisions of Section 2.10(c), or postpone any date fixed for any payment of any such fees, principal or interest, (5) amend the definition herein of “Required Lenders” or otherwise change the aggregate amount of Applicable Percentages that is required for Administrative Agent, Lenders or any of them to take any particular action under the Loan Documents, (6) release Borrower from its obligation to pay such Lender’s Obligations or any Guarantor from its guaranty of such payment (except pursuant to Section 9.11), (7) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, except for such releases relating to sales or dispositions of property permitted by the Loan Documents, (8) amend the pro- rata sharing provisions in Section 2.13 or 8.3 or otherwise alter the pro rata treatment of Lenders, including, without limitation, under Section 2.6, or (9) amend this Section 10.1(a).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent that by its terms requires the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders, except that (x)

116

the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, and the maturity of any of its Loan may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Administrative Agent nor Required Lenders shall, without the prior consent of each individual Lender affected thereby (or, as applicable, an Affiliate of such Lender), execute and deliver any waiver or amendment to any Loan Document that would (i) cause an obligation under any outstanding Hedging Contract owing to such Lender (or its Affiliate) that, prior to such waiver or amendment, constituted a “Lender Hedging Obligation” to cease to be a “Lender Hedging Obligation” or (ii) cause the priority of the Lien securing such obligation or the priority of payment with respect to such obligation in connection with the exercise of remedies under such Loan Document to be subordinate in any manner to the Obligations (other than expense reimbursements, expenses of enforcement, and other similar obligations owing under the Loan Documents or to the extent provided in Section 8.3 on the Closing Date).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no amendment, waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent, any other Agent, or the Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, such other Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any supplement to Section 5.13 (Subsidiaries) of Schedule 2 shall be effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Lenders, (B) Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of the Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any manifest ambiguity, inconsistency or defect, or to correct any typographical error or other manifest error, in any Loan Document, (C) the Administrative Agent and Borrower may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or enter into any agreement or instrument to add additional Guarantors as contemplated in Section 6.16 or to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any collateral to secure the Secured Obligations for the benefit of the Lenders or as required by any Governmental Requirement to give effect to, protect or otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under the Loan Documents without the consent of any Lender, (D) the Administrative Agent, Borrower, and the applicable increasing Lenders may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement to the extent necessary to effect an increase of the Commitments in accordance with Section 2.17, and (E) the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 3.6(b) in accordance with the terms of Section 3.6(b).

No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, 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 Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Borrower or the other Restricted Persons, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation,

120

direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower’s, any Restricted Person’s or Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Restricted Person pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to Administrative Agent, any Lender or LC Issuer by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.

Section 10.4 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

Borrower shall promptly pay (i) all transfer, stamp, mortgage, documentary or other similar taxes, assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document or transaction referred to herein or therein, (ii) all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including fees and expenses of attorneys, consultants, reserve engineers, accountants, and other advisors, travel costs, expenses related to the Platform and in connection with the issuance of CUSIP numbers, and other miscellaneous expenses) in connection with (1) the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, (2) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any amendments, modifications, consents or waivers or other documents or instruments related thereto (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (3) the filing, recording, refiling and re-recording of any Loan Documents and any other documents or instruments or further assurances required to be filed or recorded or refiled or re- recorded by the terms of any Loan Document, (4) any action reasonably required in the course of administration hereof, or (5) monitoring or confirming (or preparation or negotiation of any document related to) any Restricted Person’s compliance with any covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, (iii) all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by LC Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iv) all out-of- pocket costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of any Lender Party (including the reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, consultants, reserve engineers, accountants, and other advisors, travel costs, court costs, and miscellaneous expenses) (A) in connection with the preservation of any rights under the Loan Documents, the exercise or enforcement of any rights or remedies under the Loan Documents (including this Section), or the defense of any such exercise or enforcement, or (B) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its right in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) Indemnification. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and LC Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, Taxes, penalties, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or

121

by Borrower or any other Restricted Person arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by LC Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any environmental liability related in any way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower or any other Restricted Person, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto. THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION WILL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY INDEMNITEE, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by Borrower or any other Restricted Person against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if Borrower or such Restricted Person has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 10.4(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that any Restricted Person for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), LC Issuer, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), LC Issuer, or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or LC Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or LC Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.15.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof.

122

No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after demand therefor.

(f) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.4, together with each party’s obligations under Section 3.2, Section 3.3, Section 3.4, Section 3.5 and Section 3.6, respectively, shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.5 Successors and Assigns; Joint and Several Liability.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Borrower nor any other Restricted Person may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (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 an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of Administrative Agent

123

and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned;

(iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed):

(A) by Administrative Agent, unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender with a Commitment (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee);

(B) by LC Issuer; and

(C) by Borrower unless (x) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or (y) the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender with a Commitment or any Affiliate of a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee);

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with the Note (if requested) subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $4,000 (unless otherwise waived by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent; and

(v) no such assignment shall be made (x) to Borrower, any Borrower Equity Pledgor, or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (y) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (y), or (z) to a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person).

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits, and subject to the requirements of, of Sections 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 10.4, and 10.14 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party

124

hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 10.5, (i) the consent of Borrower and its execution of an Assignment and Assumption shall not be required, and, unless requested by the Eligible Assignee and/or the assigning Lender, new Notes shall not be required to be executed and delivered by Borrower, for any assignment which occurs at any time when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) Borrower shall not unreasonably withhold or delay in providing any consent or executing any Assignment and Assumption otherwise required under this Section 10.5. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower and each Lender Party shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan or other Obligation hereunder, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. In addition, Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender Party, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries ) (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates)) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or 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) Borrower, Administrative Agent, LC Issuer, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 3.5(e) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; 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 described in the fifth sentence of Section 10.1(a) that affects such Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.2, 3.4, and 3.5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein,

125

including the requirements under Section 3.5(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.5(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.7 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.2 or 3.5, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.7 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.14 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Administrative Agent or Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

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

(f) Joint and Several Liability. All Obligations that are incurred by two or more Restricted Persons shall be their joint and several obligations and liabilities.

Section 10.6 Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and LC Issuer agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance

126

Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided by this Agreement, or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to such credit facilities; (h) with the consent of Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any Lender, LC Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Restricted Person. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 10.6 to the contrary, Administrative Agent may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement, as amended from time to time, to the “Gold Sheets” and other market data collectors and trade publications and in “tombstone” advertisements, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications, services and advertisements.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent, any Lender or LC Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 10.7 Governing Law; Submission to Process.

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR 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, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. BORROWER AND EACH OTHER RESTRICTED PERSON IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR

127

PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER, LC ISSUER, OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS 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, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR LC ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST BORROWER OR ANY OTHER RESTRICTED PERSON OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. BORROWER AND EACH OTHER RESTRICTED PERSON IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

Section 10.8 Limitation on Interest. Lender Parties, Restricted Persons and the other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable Law from time to time in effect. Neither any

128

Restricted Person nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully contracted for, charged, or received under applicable Law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents that may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable Law from time to time in effect, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.9 Severability. If any term or provision of any Loan Document shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable all other terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall nevertheless remain effective and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.9, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by Administrative Agent or LC Issuer, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to Administrative Agent, 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 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.11 Waiver of Jury Trial, Punitive Damages, etc. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, (A) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY), AND (B) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING ANY “SPECIAL DAMAGES”, AS DEFINED BELOW. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT, OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER

129

PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. AS USED IN THIS SECTION, “SPECIAL DAMAGES” INCLUDES ALL SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (REGARDLESS OF HOW NAMED), BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY PAYMENTS OR FUNDS THAT ANY PARTY HERETO AS EXPRESSLY PROMISED TO PAY OR DELIVER TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO.

Section 10.12 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Borrower and each other Restricted Person acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the credit facilities provided for hereunder and any related services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Borrower, each other Restricted Person and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, and Borrower and each other Restricted Person is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, Administrative Agent and each Lender are and have been acting solely as principals and are not the financial advisors, agents or fiduciaries, for Borrower, any other Restricted Person or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) Administrative Agent and Lenders have neither assumed nor will they assume any advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Borrower or any other Restricted Person with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether Administrative Agent or any Lender has advised or is currently advising Borrower, any other Restricted Person or any of their respective Affiliates on other matters) and Administrative Agent and Lenders have no obligation to Borrower, any other Restricted Person or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) Administrative Agent, each Lender, and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower, the other Restricted Persons and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender will provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and each of Borrower and the other Restricted Persons has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Each of Borrower and the other Restricted Persons hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

Section 10.13 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower and each other Restricted Person that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required

130

to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and each other Restricted Person, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and each other Restricted Person and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower and each other Restricted Person in accordance with the Act.

Section 10.14 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, LC Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, LC Issuer or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Restricted Person against any and all of the obligations of Borrower or such Restricted Person now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or LC Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, LC Issuer, or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Restricted Person may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office, or Affiliate of such Lender or LC Issuer different from the branch, office, or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, LC Issuer, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, LC Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, LC Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and LC Issuer agrees to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 10.15 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent, LC Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, LC Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent, LC Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and LC Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and LC Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.16 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

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

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

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

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Section 10.17 Successor Agent Provisions.

(a) Resignation of Resigning Agent. The Resigning Agent, with the consent of each of the other parties to this Agreement, hereby resigns as administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Prior Credit Facility and is hereby discharged from all duties and obligations as administrative agent and as collateral agent under the Prior Credit Facility and the other Loan Documents (including this Agreement), except as provided in this Section 10.17. For the avoidance of doubt, as of the Closing Date, no additional amounts shall be due and payable to the Resigning Agent under the Fee Letter (as defined in the Prior Credit Facility) or any other Loan Document in its capacity as “Administrative Agent” or as “Collateral Agent” under the Prior Credit Facility, except as provided in this Section 10.17 or as otherwise expressly stated in such Loan Document as surviving such resignation.

(b) Appointment of Successor Agent. The Successor Agent is hereby irrevocably designated and appointed by the undersigned Lenders and the undersigned LC Issuer, with the consent of each of the other parties to this Agreement, to act on behalf of each Lender and LC Issuer as the Administrative Agent and as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents and is authorized to take such actions on any Lender’s or LC Issuer’s behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent by the terms thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Successor Agent hereby accepts its appointment to act as the Administrative Agent and as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

132

(c) Rights, Duties and Obligations. The Successor Agent hereby succeeds to and is vested with any and all residual rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under and in connection with the Prior Credit Facility and each of the “Loan Documents” under and as defined in the Prior Credit Facility (collectively, the “Assigned Loan Documents”), all of which Assigned Loan Documents and any guarantees, Liens, or other rights or interests of Resigning Agent thereunder are hereby assigned by the Resigning Agent to the Successor Agent, it being understood that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the continuing validity of the indemnification, exculpation, expense reimbursement and other applicable provisions of Section 10 of the Prior Credit Facility with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Resigning Agent, any of its subagents and any of their respective Affiliates (i) while the Resigning Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or as Collateral Agent or (ii) subsequent to the Closing Date pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, all of which shall survive the Resigning Agent’s resignation and shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Resigning Agent, any of its subagents and their respective Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that this Agreement does not constitute an assumption by (i) the Successor Agent of any liability or obligation of the Resigning Agent or any of its Affiliates or any appointee or agent of the Resigning Agent arising out of or in connection with any action or inaction by the Resigning Agent, any Affiliate of the Resigning Agent or any appointee or agent of the Resigning Agent under or in connection with the Prior Credit Facility or any other “Loan Document” as defined therein prior to the date hereof, or (ii) the Resigning Agent of any liability or obligation of the Successor Agent or any of its Affiliates or any appointee or agent of the Successor Agent arising out of any action or inaction by the Successor Agent, any Affiliates of the Successor Agent or such appointee or agent under this Agreement, or any other Loan Document (as defined in this Agreement). The parties hereto agree that (i) the Successor Agent, shall bear no responsibility or liability for any event, circumstance, condition or action existing prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to the Prior Credit Facility, any other “Loan Document” as defined therein, or the transactions contemplated thereby, and (ii) the Resigning Agent, shall bear no responsibility or liability for any event, circumstance, condition or action arising on or after the effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to the Prior Credit Facility, any other “Loan Document” as defined therein, this Agreement, any Loan Document (as defined in this Agreement), or the transactions contemplated thereby. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that none of the Resigning Agent, any of its subagents or any of their respective Affiliates shall be under any obligation to share, rebate, disgorge or refund any fees or expense reimbursement it has received or is entitled to receive under the Prior Credit Facility, any other “Loan Document” as defined therein, this Agreement or any other agreement; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing should not apply to any fees or expense reimbursement that are paid to the Resigning Agent more than once in error if such fees or expense reimbursement are not otherwise required to be paid more than once. From and after the Closing Date, all possessory Collateral held by the Resigning Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall be deemed to be held by the Resigning Agent as agent and bailee for the Successor Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties until such time as such possessory collateral has been delivered to the Successor Agent (or its sub-agent). Borrower and the Resigning Agent agree that the Successor Agent is authorized as it may deem necessary or appropriate to file or register in any applicable jurisdiction such financing statements, financing change statements or other filings, in each instance covering any of the collateral described in any Assigned Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument

133

or document delivered or entered into under or in connection therewith or furnished pursuant thereto.

(d) Disbursement Status. Borrower represents and warrants that the information made available to Borrower and Successor Agent by the Resigning Agent regarding (i) with respect to each Lender, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender, (ii) each outstanding Interest Period, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans subject to each such Interest Period, and the Eurodollar Base Rate applicable to each such Interest Period, (iii) the aggregate accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, (iv) the accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans owing to each Lender, and any other fees, charges and expenses due and payable to the Lenders under the Prior Credit Facility, in each case as of the date hereof, to Borrower’s knowledge, is true and correct in all respects (capitalized terms used in this sentence having the meanings given to such terms in the Prior Credit Facility).

(e) Undertakings.

(i) The Resigning Agent shall be reimbursed by Borrower for, to the extent invoiced, all of the Resigning Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of its counsel) incurred in connection with performing its obligations under this Section 10.18(e), subject to the limitations and other terms set forth in Section 10.4 of the Prior Credit Facility (it being understood that, notwithstanding the resignation of the Resigning Agent from its capacity as Administrative Agent and as Collateral Agent under the Prior Credit Facility, this clause (i) shall require the reimbursement of expenses attributable to the obligations of the Resigning Agent hereunder as if such expenses were incurred in connection with the Resigning Agent’s administration of the Prior Credit Facility on the terms set forth in Section 10.4 of the Prior Credit Facility).

(ii) Each of Borrower, the Successor Agent and the Resigning Agent agrees for its mutual benefit that, to the extent requested by any of Borrower, the Successor Agent, or the Resigning Agent, it shall (x) execute, and Borrower shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Guarantors to execute, all documents as are reasonably requested by such party to transfer the rights and privileges of the Resigning Agent under the Assigned Loan Documents to the Successor Agent, without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, and (y) take all actions reasonably requested by such other party to facilitate the transfer of information to the Successor Agent in connection with the Assigned Loan Documents, in each case solely at Borrower’s cost and expense. It is the intention and understanding of the parties hereto that any exchange of information under this Agreement that is otherwise protected against disclosure by privilege, doctrine or rule of confidentiality (such information, “Privileged Information”), whether before or after the effectiveness of this Agreement (I) shall not waive any applicable privilege, doctrine or rule of protection from disclosure, (II) shall not diminish the confidentiality of the Privileged Information and (III) shall not be asserted as a waiver of any such privilege, doctrine or rule by the Resigning Agent or the Successor Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

134

Agreement, the Resigning Agent will have no obligation to deliver to the Successor Agent any commitment, fee or engagement letter between the Resigning Agent (or any of the Resigning Agent’s Affiliates) and Borrower, or any other document or instrument (other than the Register or any Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter)) that is covered by a confidentiality arrangement that by the terms of which do not allow it to be disclosed to the Successor Agent.

(iii) In the event that, after the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Resigning Agent receives in error any principal, interest or other amount owing to any Lender or the Successor Agent under this Agreement, as amended hereby, or any Assigned Loan Document, or receives any instrument, agreement, report, financial statement, insurance policy, notice or other document delivered to it as a result of its former capacity as Administrative Agent under the Prior Credit Facility, the Resigning Agent agrees to promptly forward the same to the Successor Agent and to hold the same in trust for the Successor Agent until so forwarded; provided that the Resigning Agent’s failure to forward any such instrument, agreement, report, financial statement, notice or other document shall not create any claim or cause of action on the part of the Successor Agent against the Resigning Agent for any reason whatsoever, other than a claim for specific performance.

(f) Reliance; Limitation on Liability.

(i) Each of the Resigning Agent (solely with respect to performing its obligations under this Agreement) and the Successor 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 reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been executed or sent by the proper Person. Each of the Resigning Agent (solely with respect to performing its obligations under this Agreement) and the Successor Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each of the Resigning Agent (solely with respect to performing its obligations under this Agreement) and the Successor Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts upon which they rely in good faith.

(ii) Successor Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, the records and other information supplied to it by the Resigning Agent, Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates, and in no event shall the Successor Agent have any liability in respect of the calculations, determinations or distributions made by the Lenders or the Resigning Agent prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, nor shall the Successor Agent have any liability after the effectiveness of this Agreement to the extent that any calculation, determination or distribution is made by it based in whole or in part on information supplied to it by the Resigning Agent, Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates.

135

Section 10.18 Amendment and Restatement of Prior Credit Facility. It is the intention of the parties hereto and such parties hereby agree, from and after the Closing Date, that (a) this Agreement amends, restates, supersedes and replaces the Prior Credit Facility in its entirety; provided that each of the “Loans” (as such term is defined in the Prior Credit Facility) outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility on the Closing Date shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be included as Loans hereunder and each of the Existing Letters of Credit outstanding under the Prior Credit Facility on the Closing Date shall be Letters of Credit hereunder, (b) such amendment and restatement shall operate to renew, amend and modify certain of the rights and obligations of the parties under the Prior Credit Facility as provided herein, but shall not act as a novation thereof or a novation of any loans or other obligations outstanding thereunder, all of which loans and other obligations shall be deemed to be loans and obligations outstanding under the corresponding facilities described in this Agreement without any further action by any Person, except that the Administrative Agent may make such transfers of funds as are necessary in order that the outstanding balance of such loans, together with any Loans funded on the Closing Date, reflect the respective Loans of the Lenders hereunder, and (c) the Liens securing the any outstanding obligations or loans under the Prior Credit Facility shall not be extinguished, but are hereby ratified, affirmed and confirmed and shall be carried forward and shall secure the Secured Obligations as renewed, amended, restated, and modified hereby and by any Loan Documents delivered pursuant hereto. Unless specifically amended or restated hereby or by any other Loan Document, each of the “Loan Documents” under and as defined in the Prior Credit Facility and the Exhibits and the Schedules thereto shall continue in full force and effect and, from and after the Closing Date, and any and all references to the Prior Credit Facility contained therein shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement. Each Lender hereunder that is a Lender under the Prior Credit Facility and Borrower hereby consent to the amendments to, and amendments and restatements of, the “Loan Documents” under and as defined in the Prior Credit Facility in the form of the Loan Documents, as applicable.

Section 10.19 Exiting Lenders. Subject to the receipt of funds necessary to pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other charges owed under the Prior Credit Facility to Iberia Bank, ZB, N.A. DBA Amegy Bank, Cadence Bank, N.A., First Tennessee Bank, N.A., and East West Bank (collectively, the “Exiting Lenders” and each individually, an “Exiting Lender”), each of the Exiting Lenders hereby consents to this Agreement as required under Section 10.1 of the Prior Credit Facility. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees and confirms that after receipt by each Exiting Lender of funds necessary to pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other charges owed to it under the Prior Credit Facility and giving effect to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, each of the Exiting Lenders shall cease to have a Commitment hereunder, its commitments to lend and all of its obligations under the Prior Credit Facility shall be terminated and each of the Exiting Lenders shall cease to be a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents.
